Lord of the Nation: My talent is 100 million points strong

Chapter 417 The Disappearing Ice Gate and the Ice Knight on the Ice

Looking at Xueya's slender back, Lei Xiao was surprised to find out.

The moment Xueya's white onion fingers touched the giant ice door, a sudden wave of energy rippled out, and the giant ice door in front of him actually started to start a prairie fire from the position where Xueya's hand was pointing. Disintegrate.

Not long after, the thickened giant ice gate that stood here just now, at least 10 meters thick, completely lost its trace, and all of it was reduced to energy particles in the air, not even a drop of water remained.

Seeing this rather miraculous scene, not only Lei Xiao and the other subordinates around him, but even Xue Ya himself, who was not far away, showed a touch of surprise on his exquisite face.

"My lord, my subordinates didn't do anything just now...how could this happen?"

Xue Ya first turned over her white palm, and then asked Lei Xiao with a confused face.

"Yes, my lord, what happened just now? Why did the giant ice door just disappear?"

Bai Wei shook her big fluffy tail and asked in confusion, "Could it be some new trap?"

"Ye Cang, what do you think?"

Signaling his subordinates to be calm, Lei Xiao looked at the muscular priest beside him.

At this stage, apart from Jiang Li, who has not yet returned, as the strongest magician in the territory, Ye Cang is naturally the one with the most say.

"Returning to Lord Lord, judging from the energy fluctuation just now, the possibility of a trap can almost be ruled out. This ice door blocking the way was indeed cracked by Xueya unintentionally."

Ye Cang bowed gracefully to Lei Xiao, pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "As for why Xue Ya easily cracked this weird ice gate, there is only one answer, that is the caster of the ice gate back then, In other words, the maker of the disordered map deliberately left a specific magical back door, as long as the intruder meets the relevant conditions, it can be automatically cracked."

"It makes sense, there is indeed such a magical spell."

Chaoyan, who was holding half a piece of chocolate cookie in her hand, also came up and said: "Generally speaking, the mystery of this kind of magic back door is very likely to be the power of the blood of the same clan!"

"The power of blood? So, the maker of the disordered map, or the owner of this cave, used to be of the same family as Xue Ya?"

While rubbing his chin, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

Thinking in this way, we can indeed find some clues.

Whether it is the magic ice mirror that is the "key" to cracking the map of disorder, or the location of this cave near Fenglong City, they all have more or less connections with Xueya's Bingliu family.

After all, compared to the four elements of water, fire, and wind, common mages, ice mages are an extremely rare existence.

And in the entire eastern area of ​​Lengyan, the only large-scale ice magic family is the Bingliu family where Xueya belongs.

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao pondered for a while, then asked: "Xue Ya, do you have any clues about this?"

"Returning to the lord, after being reminded by Senior Ye Cang and Sister Chao Yan, this subordinate did vaguely sense a very familiar wave of magic and a soft aura that seemed to have been similar in front of the ice gate just now, so it has been confirmed that , the builder of this hidden cave is a certain ancestor of the subordinate family."

Xue Ya bowed to Lei Xiao, then frowned and thought for a moment, then continued: "In the history of the Bingliu family, there have indeed been several different rangers and warlocks, some of whom are even famous in the entire Leng Yan family." kingdoms, and even nations of the human race.”

"However, most of the ancestors of the Bingliu family were unrestrained and loved freedom, and they did not want to be bound by the rules and regulations of the nobles. As a result, some of them had only a few words in the family history, and some were even completely removed from their names."

"Thus, judging from the current situation, the subordinates are also unable to determine which ancestor of the Bingliu family was the builder of this hidden cave."

Speaking of this, Xueya's fair and delicate face showed another look of excitement and gratitude, and thanked Lei Xiao: "I can find someone from the Bingliu family in this vast and endless Songyin Mountain Range." The hidden cave of this ancestor is thanks to the lord! Otherwise, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the subordinates to find a trace of this ancestor in this lifetime!"

"You're welcome, since we've figured out the owner here, let's go in and find out."

Lei Xiao smiled slightly, and then, surrounded by his subordinates, he took his own steps.

After another long tunnel, Lei Xiao noticed.

It can be seen from the trace of magic energy still remaining on the cave wall.

The giant ice door just now must have a thickness of at least 30 meters, which is simply unbelievable.

"Good guy, this can't be called an ice door anymore, can it?"

Feeling the faint energy fluctuations on the damp cave wall, Lei Xiao couldn't help curling his lips, laughing and laughing in his heart.

Not long after, with the footsteps of a group of people moving forward, everything in front of them suddenly became clear.

After looking around, Lei Xiao found out.

At the same time that the surrounding temperature dropped suddenly, his group of people had already come to a vast space completely covered by a thick layer of ice.

I saw that in the crystal clear ice cave, the dazzling brilliance emitted by the light spar was reflected everywhere, which made people feel dazzled.

After getting used to the surrounding light, Lei Xiao narrowed his dark pupils and continued to observe.

This ice cave is very vast, at least three to four hundred square meters in size, and the ground is clean and bright, just like a large indoor ice skating rink.

Of course, although the ground was extremely cold and slippery, it was naturally no hindrance to Lei Xiao and the others who were covered with energy shields all over their bodies.

"Being able to build this hidden cave to such an extent, Xueya's ancestor is really extraordinary."

Looking at the crystal clear surroundings, Lei Xiao couldn't help but secretly marvel in his heart: "I don't know who Xueya's ancestor is?"

Just as Lei Xiao thought of this, a sudden change happened.

A large number of impressive energy fluctuations began to ripple out of the ice one after another.

In the midst of the soaring cold air, eighteen crystal-clear ice knights wearing heavy armor of ice crystals quickly emerged from under the ice surface.

For a moment, the hoofs of the horses were restless and icy cold overflowed. In the limited space, these eighteen heavily armored knights who looked like canned food gave people a sense of oppression.

"It's kind of interesting."

Seeing this sudden change, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and continued to observe.

I saw that these ice knights and the tall horses under their crotches were all made of condensed ice, and a strong cold air rose from the whole body, and a good aura emanated from these ice knights, exuding a stalk. The sharp spear tip of the cold air shone with a dazzling cold light.

"My lord, you are eighteen high-level golem puppets at the peak level of the third-order powerhouse!"

Chaoyan swung the short staff in her hand horizontally and blurted out.

After speaking, doubts appeared on Chaoyan's fair face, he tilted his head and said in puzzlement: "But judging from the breath, these ice knights don't seem to be ordinary high-level golem puppets."

"That's right, these are alchemy puppets that are stronger than the golem puppets summoned by spells!"

Xue Ya's delicate face froze, and then added.

"So it's an alchemy puppet?"

Lei Xiao looked thoughtful while staring at the group of ice knights who came out of nowhere.

Not long ago, during the chat with Xueya and Faxia, Lei Xiao already knew about it.

In this different world where swords and magic flourish, alchemists are not only famous for their ability to refine potions called miracles.

Another reason for being respected is that there are still some alchemists who master the second application method of alchemy: puppet alchemy.

Different from the widely used potion alchemy, the puppet alchemy is a more mysterious alchemy method with a higher threshold.

In other words, if potion refining is a compulsory course for alchemists, then puppet refining is a master-level advanced course that can only be mastered by a very small number of elite alchemists.

Only master alchemists who are above the fourth level and have a lot of experience in refining potions have the ability to set foot in this new field.

Compared with ordinary golem puppets that can only exist for a period of time, puppets made by alchemists can not only last forever, but also have the function of self-healing. It can be said to be extremely powerful and can greatly enhance the strength of the alchemist himself.

And the specially made alchemy puppets can even be controlled by other powerful people other than alchemists, thus further enhancing the strength of the controller.

Of course, the price of this special alchemy puppet is also very expensive, even for ordinary nobles, it is an unattainable luxury.

Then again, although alchemy puppets have many benefits and are extremely popular, the opposite is that the refining process is extremely complicated and the materials required are extremely rare.

Moreover, when using the refining array to refine, it is easier to cause serious magic backlash to the alchemist himself.

All of the above, it is doomed that alchemy puppets are only rare and special existences, and ordinary people can't match them at all.

"Eighteen alchemy puppets at the peak level of Tier [-]?"

Looking at the ice knights whose bodies were filled with cold air, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows calmly.

It is true that for ordinary strong people, this is indeed an extremely powerful force, even enough to make a small city tremble.

However, for my group, this is naturally no pressure and can be easily dealt with.

"Judging from the current situation, it is obviously unrealistic to subdue these alchemy puppets who are the guardians of the ice cave. After all, Xueya's strength is limited at this stage, and he is still unable to set foot in the field of puppet alchemy. Then let’s make it quick.”

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

By Lei Xiao's side, all the subordinates were already ready for battle, ready to go.

However, when Lei Xiao commanded his subordinates to clear the field, he discovered it unexpectedly.

The eighteen ice knights at the peak level of Tier [-] did not adopt an offensive posture. Instead, they lined up in two rows, with their sharp spear points pointing upwards, like an ice sculpture guard of honor, standing motionless in place.

"My lord, the other party doesn't seem to be hostile."

After watching for a while, Xue Ya stroked her chest and bowed respectfully to Lei Xiao.

"At the very beginning, these alchemy puppets were indeed full of murderous intent."

Ye Cang pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and thoughtfully said: "It seems that the situation should be the same as that of the giant ice door just now, it was because he felt the power of the blood of the Bingliu family in Xueya that he stopped attacking action."

"Oh?"

On Lei Xiao's face, there was a look of interest involuntarily.

This undoubtedly means that it is not impossible to subdue these impressive and rare combat powers.

"My lord, please wait a moment, this subordinate will go to confirm."

Seeing the urgency in Lei Xiao's eyes, Xue Ya, accompanied by Ye Cang and A Ling, slowly approached an ice knight on the outermost edge.

Not long after, with a faint energy fluctuation flashing by, Xue Ya turned her head in surprise and said: "My lord, this subordinate has easily obtained the control of this ice knight!"

"Just like what Senior Ye Cang said, the ancestors of his subordinates really left a magic back door on these alchemy puppets!"

After speaking, Xue Ya's heart moved, and the ice knight riding a tall horse in front of her disappeared instantly, and she put it in her storage ring.

"Very good, then subdue all these ice knights."

Lei Xiao slowly retracted his gaze and nodded in satisfaction.

Before this, Lei Xiao had already learned that every puppet had complete anti-space protection measures on its body.

Therefore, only the actual controller of the puppet can store the puppet in his own storage space, while others cannot do this.

"So, didn't I get eighteen heavy-armored knights at the peak level of the third-order powerhouse all at once? In terms of combat power alone, it is completely enough to be equal to two ordinary thousand-man cavalry brigades! With the painful golem puppets, the fighting power of these ice knights is undoubtedly even more terrifying!"

Thinking of this, the joy on Lei Xiao's face was beyond words.

"Having said that, I didn't expect Xue Ya's ancestor to be an alchemist, and judging from the eighteen alchemy puppets at the peak level of the third order, the other party should still be a very outstanding existence back then. The more people look forward to it, what other treasures will appear in the future.”

Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, Xue Yalian moved lightly, tapped her fingertips, and had obtained the complete control of the eighteen ice knights in turn.

Due to the limited space of the storage ring worn by Xue Ya, it was impossible to store all these tall heavy equipment alchemy puppets in it.

Therefore, under Lei Xiao's signal, these ice knights riding tall ice horses, holding heavy guns, and carrying heavy swords were temporarily dispatched to the entrance of the ice cave to serve as security guards.

After arranging everything properly, after some investigation, Lei Xiao and his team noticed further.

At the end of the ice cave, there is a new ice door, which seems to be the way to the depths of the ice cave.

"Xueya, open the ice door."

When he came to the ice gate, Lei Xiao nodded and ordered to the waist-length female alchemist beside him.

"Follow your orders, my lord."

Xue Ya bowed slightly, then walked straight forward.

Just like the previous situation, under the touch of Xue Yaxian's fingers, this seemingly unbreakable thick ice door melted and disintegrated in an instant.

A brand new space was then displayed in front of Lei Xiao and the others.
