Chapter 506 Immortal Fortress

the next day.

Until the mission started, Lei Luo never saw [Ant King] Lando again, which made Lei Luo quite regretful.

For Lei Luo, this academician has a very special status.

As far as Lei Luo knows.

He used to be one of the closest friends with his mentor's mentor, who was also Gu Bo's mentor. Because of this relationship, when Gu Bo was promoted to the position of dean, the academician also had the credit for his strong recommendation.

"never mind."

With the secret mission order, Lei Luo flew towards the Immortal Fortress.

This is the most majestic fortress of the Principality of Glen for a long time, and it is also the forefront of the confrontation between the Principality of Glen and the Principality of Sealand.

Fortunately.

After Lei Luo's struggle, the mission transfer order has agreed to Lei Luo's request, and the [Nightmare Devourer] who broke into the Principality of Zealand will be brought back to the military headquarters within a time limit of 30 days to prepare for the final battle.

The round-trip journey, even at the fastest speed, takes about seven or eight days, so the time that can be left to Lei Luo to operate is only half a month.

Seven days later.

When Lei Luo came to the Immortal Fortress.

I have to admit that compared to the Immortal Fortress, the Furnace Fortress is nothing more than that.

There are three towers standing side by side in the Immortal Fortress alone!

"Academician Lei Luo!"

After announcing their identities, a short while later, the old general led a group of generals over. The surrounding soldiers looked surprised when they saw so many high-ranking generals coming out to greet them.

Among the generals, there were several scholar advisors.

When these people heard that the military had sent this famous and legendary academician to the fortress, they all looked surprised and excited.

"Master, are you here to garrison the Immortal Fortress on His Majesty's orders?"

The old general was quite happy.

Lei Luo actually felt an aura similar to M's from his body.

This is a strong man, a truly strong man who is unparalleled in the duchy. The warrior's physique and courage can be cultivated to this level. Even a grand duchy like Gran would be hard-pressed to find another one. This is the massacre in ancient times. After the Dragon Warrior achieves the Heroic Legend, he builds a standard template for becoming a god by establishing a temple.

"Haha, Your Majesty believes that all the generals will be able to protect the safety of the fortress. Those who will be stationed at the Immortal Fortress will take turns to be stationed in the Immortal Fortress. After a while, there will be others. I am here for another task. This is a transfer order."

After Lei Luo was a little polite, he handed over the order to the old general and looked at the three towers in the distance.

Not for a while.

The old general looked disappointed and said regretfully: "In this case, if the master has any needs, just ask the several chief magician advisory groups, and the fortress will do its best to meet them."

"good."

After Lei Luo responded, only a few senior magician consultants from the fortress were left on the scene. It was not difficult to sense the faint threat coming from these people. These were obviously extraordinary scholars who had long been famous.

"Master, please!"

After being greeted by several people, Lei Luo and a few people first casually chatted about the current situation of the Furnace Fortress. After arriving at the upper level of a fortress tower, they began to talk about business.

"Is there any news about [Nightmare Devourer] Academician Nightmare and the Immortal Fortress?"

Several people looked at each other.

One of the female scholars, the only woman among the seven people present, blinked her cat-eye jewel-like eyes with an ugly look on her face.

"Three days ago, [Nightmare Devourer] Master Nightmare was ordered by the King of Zealand to deliver it to the God of War Fortress. However, the [Sandstorm Controller] stationed at the God of War Fortress this time was the one who inherited Gauss Adolf's scholarship on the laws of nature. The conservative members are incompatible with the radicals of [Biological Exterminator] Sicily, so [Nightmare Devourer] Nightmare Master was detained in the God of War Fortress, and the other party issued a message asking us to pay a sufficient ransom before releasing him. The two Tianqian Fortress has sent [Night Watcher] Master Qiu to negotiate."

oh?

Lei Luo said: "So, the original intention of the Principality of Sealand, at least [Biological Exterminator] Sicily agreed to release the people, but this [Sandstorm Controller] just detained them privately?"

"That should be the case. As for whether it was an instruction from the Principality of Sealand, it's hard to say."

Another academic advisor said: "Negotiation is inevitable, it's just a matter of cost, otherwise the Principality of Sealand would not imprison academicians here."

After saying that, the white-bearded scholar hesitated and couldn't help but said: "Master, how is the war situation in Dubit Province? Even Academician Youmai had no choice but to flee to the Principality of Zealand?"

"rest assured."

Lei Luo said: "This is just a failure of Master Nightmare's assassination behind enemy lines, and he was chased by many ancient creatures. The main force of the principality's army is progressing quite smoothly. It has regained a lot of lost ground and is heading towards the core area of ​​​​the monster invasion. I believe it is impossible. In a few months, we will receive good news here.”

Lei Luo's confident words made several people present breathe a sigh of relief.

Night time.

[Night Watcher] Master Qiu, who was responsible for negotiating with the God of War Fortress, returned to the Immortal Fortress. After learning that the person who came to the fortress to take charge of this task was [Power of the Sun] Academician Lei Luo, he came immediately. Arriving at the room where Lei Luo was.

"How about Master Nightmare?"

Lei Luo immediately asked with concern.

[Night Watcher] is an extraordinary scholar wearing a black cloak, wearing an X mask, revealing a pair of eyes.

"Everything is fine with Academician Nightmare. He only suffered some minor injuries. The Principality of Sealand did not embarrass the academician. [Sandstorm Controller] Master Luo Mi said that our principality needs to pay 15 million gold coins before he is willing to release him. "

"Fifteen million gold coins?"

Lei Luo frowned and murmured, this is not a small amount.

The principality's annual tax revenue is about one billion gold coins. In a normal year, about 5% is invested in the military field, which is 50 million gold coins. Even during wars, the investment is only about 200 million gold coins, otherwise the national order will completely collapse.

Now the Principality of Sealand has fifteen million gold coins in its mouth!

This is enough to build almost ten fully armed balloon airships.

Of course, no matter how much it costs, Lei Luo must rescue the [Nightmare Devourer]. This is not a matter of gold coins.

If these gold coins snub the academician's heart and make him switch to the Principality of Sealand, the loss to the principality will not only be a matter of gold coins.

After thinking deeply for a long time, Lei Luo suddenly raised his head and looked at [Night Watcher].

"Contact Master Luo Mi, the [Sandstorm Controller] of the Principality of Sealand. In two days, I am willing to negotiate with him personally regarding the [Nightmare Devourer] Nightmare Master."

"yes!"

After [Night Watcher] left, Lei Luo went straight to the intelligence office.

"Retrieve all the information about Romi, the [Sandstorm Controller] of the Principality of Sealand."

The intelligence department acted very quickly. After a while, the things Lei Luo needed were dispatched for Lei Luo to review in detail.

The God of War Fortress and the Immortal Fortress are both the largest fortresses in the Principality of Sealand and Glen.

The reason for this is not just because of the two human beings, but because this is one of the famous dangerous places in the Star Curtain Land, the Death Abyss!

In the abyss of death, it is extremely cold.

It is said that at the deepest point, except for a few natural law Sealand Royal Academicians who control the power of fire, and a few Evolutionary Royal Academicians with powerful vitality, the rest will be unable to move forward due to the severe cold.

Lei Luo remembered that among the many S-level tasks he had seen in the mercenary hall, there was one that went deep into the abyss of death to find ancient bone grinding. The reward was six million gold coins, plus a lifetime elder seat in the St. Granburg Arena, and Huangquan bird mount.

This shows how difficult this task is.

For some scholars who have mastered the power of ice, the value of the ancient demon bones taken out of this extremely cold death abyss may not be as valuable as some treasure-level magical substances.

The scary thing is.

In the Death Abyss, it is said that because of this special cold, in addition to the extremely terrifying ice creatures that evolved in the abyss, there are also some terrifying unknown creatures at the bottom. Even the pioneers Antonio and Gauss Adolf were in danger of returning home in vain. biology!

Gradually.

time flies.

When Lei Luo was flipping through the information on [Sandstorm Controller] and reading one of the pages, his eyes suddenly froze, revealing a look of thought.

When this [Sandstorm Controller] was young, he had a bloodline and was a very outstanding natural law scholar. He actually obtained extraordinary scholar degree certificates one after another with him. He was also regarded as one of the most outstanding flame academic researchers in the Principality of Zealand. An eye-catching one.

It puts forward the academic insights of using severe cold to stimulate flames and weaving the laws of nature into subtleties.

Just a pity.

After he entered the abyss of death once, he never came out again, and a generation of talented scholars died.

Later, after [Sandstorm Controller] obtained the Royal Academician degree of Sealand, he sought help from several famous flame scholars in Sealand Principality at any cost, but unfortunately they got nothing. Until the end, he was also discouraged, but every time Then he applied to be stationed in the Ares Fortress to pay homage to his son.

"Perhaps, we can try it from this direction."

Rubbing his tired forehead, Lei Luo murmured.
