A strange world

Chapter 274 Chapter 127. Snow Mountain Fortress

The old rusty city gate slowly opened, and hundreds of heavy cavalry poured out from the door opening, lining up outside the city with the awe of passers-by and the dust kicked up.

If Annan and Olmedo were here, they would recognize the Royal Capital knight who came with the wanted notice standing next to the cavalry officer.

Their spears are sharp, their horses are covered with armor, their armor is covered with scratches, and their morale is fearless.

The cavalry officer with a beard and dark gold armor engraved with a lion raised his spear: "Our mission is to attack Xingyue Bay, capture the rebel King of the North, and let the capital witness our bravery! For Montreal !loyalty!"

"loyalty!"

"Set off!"

The loyal heavy cavalry began to march long distances, raising dust that obscured the road. People entering the city hid on both sides of the road, choking on the dust and coughing.

Charles Vera, who was in the queue, carrying a cart of magical newspapers, looked like he had seen a ghost.

what happened? Has Plenty declared war on the King in the North?

"Boss, what should we do?" The panicked apprentice came over.

"Quick, quick, quick... we need to send the news to Xingyue Bay!"

…

"No hurries……"

Kerrian lay lazily on the stone bed and watched Losey pack her things. "Sir Annan will not live here with us."

"But Lord Annan will see our messy room and think that we haven't done anything since we came up!"

Kerrian couldn't lie down anymore and was busy with Losey, muttering: "We really didn't do anything..."

They just took the magic stone and took pictures around the fortress and the front lines, and then sent the magic stone back through the portal that opened once a week...

If it weren't for the cold and hard food on the snow mountain fortress, they would have gained a lot of weight.

But the snow-capped mountain fortress was not a good place. The thin air made it hard to breathe, and the slightest strenuous exercise made me dizzy. The snowstorm outside the fortress never stopped.

The captain who received them said that the perennial snowstorm was the biggest killer of demons. Losey believes it. Demons are not stones. In such bad weather, they will freeze into popsicles in a few hours.

So Luo Xi was worried because they never had the chance to go to the front line or find the Lord's friends...

"Oops!"

Losi's sudden shout startled Kerian: "I forgot to tell Mr. Annan that there was a strange old man in the camp!

…

The closer you get to the snow-capped mountains, the cooler the temperature becomes.

Annan flew along the road on the ground, but there were still white dragons around him approaching. Then, because this white dragon was just a young boy, it just circled around in a majestic manner, showing off its size for a short distance before going away.

After flying nearly all night, Annan arrived at the camp at the foot of the snow-capped mountains just before dawn.

Annan jumped off the dragon's back and saw several griffons leaning together. Their heads are like falcons, but they have strong bodies like lions. Annan moved forward curiously and stretched out his hand to the gryphon——

"Don't touch the gryphon, be careful of it——"

Annan touched a tuft of white hair on the gryphon's head, turned around and asked, "What?"

A slovenly old man came over, looked at the griffin with narrowed eyes and marveled: "This is very unusual... Betty has a bad temper, and she never lets anyone touch her... What's your name?"

"Annan."

"Want to raise a gryphon?"

The soldier next to him couldn't help but remind him: "He is the King of the North..."

"What's wrong with the King of the North! Without strength, it's just a joke." The old man snorted angrily: "Annan, think about it, the group of griffon knights are your subordinates, and even the king has to meet them when they arrive in the capital. Give me your seat..."

Annan was very interested. Not the king's seat, but the gryphon is better suited to be the anchor than the white dragon. They are not as rare and difficult to breed as white dragons, and most importantly - griffins have been domesticated by humans for thousands of years, and they will not suddenly be confused like white dragons "What is this bite?"

"I know a place suitable for raising griffins. There are endless fish there, and there is a stable and peaceful environment..."

The old man can't make the decision, but the owner of the griffon is in the fortress, and Annan can talk to him.

This is a good start. Annan let the camp take care of the white dragon for a few days, climbed on "Betty"'s back, and headed for the snow mountain fortress.

The biting cold wind blew into the fluttering mage's robe. Annan had to bury his head and hide it in his feathers so that he wouldn't be unable to breathe due to the strong wind. After a few dozen minutes, the gryphon slowed down. Annan raised his head and saw the endless black fortress entrenched on the snow-capped mountains in the ice and snow.

The gryphon landed in an open space on the edge of the fortress. Annan saw trembling Losi and Kerian, as well as a woman standing next to them, wearing only a leather armor and cloak in the ice and snow.

She was not tall, with a high nose, but her strong body under her rough pale skin seemed to contain an avalanche of power.

In comparison, the title Lady Winter suits her better.

Annan guessed that she was Ji Jiana, the patriarch of the Jana family.

"Annan."

Ji Jana's words came from the wind and snow: "I didn't expect you to really dare to come up. For the sake of our ancestors, what do you want to ask of me?"

"It's not about begging, it's about cooperation."

This is a meeting between two kings in the north. Annan cannot let himself be in a weak position: "A whole clan of ratmen is heading north, the Violet Kingdom has been destroyed, the Rekaner Kingdom will be next, and the dignitaries in the royal capital have been killed by the rats. People have their eyes covered and their ears covered, and they don’t know what’s going on. We must unite..."

"That's what you people under the mountain are going to do." Ji Jiana interrupted him and replied as coldly as ice and snow: "After so many years, eleven families can't even defeat a group of rat people?"

"Actually, there are only five. The Reeves family, the Janna family, the Diatra family, the Lawrence family, and the Barros family..."

Jijana's sarcasm was of no use in front of the serious Annan.

"The Janna family will not leave the fortress."

Annan sighed helplessly: "If you don't help, I can only be a bad guy once..."

Ji Jiana's expression turned cold: "You want to force us?"

"No. I want to tear down the mage tower."

A subtle confusion appeared on Ji Jiana's face.

Annan said: "The legendary mage is not as cold as you. In order to save the kingdom, Lord Agarwal will not mind if I demolish the mage tower."

probably not.

"Don't provoke me, boy." Ji Jiana looked at Annan again and suddenly said: "I can give you a chance."

"what chance?"

"Tell the Arena that the King of the North will also participate in tonight's Demon Tournament!"

She told the tribesmen standing far away without looking back, her dark blue eyes full of sharpness:

"On the Fortress, strength is the rule. Be the winner and you will get everything you want."
