Dear Broom Knight

Lowry clicked his tongue slightly in his mind.

What he admired most about Cesca was her ability to suppress her boiling heart with calm thinking, no matter the situation.

What she was most curious about now must be the situation of Alex, the King of the Icefield.

The fact that she didn't react to Alex's little tricks back then didn't mean that she, and her four siblings, had no malice or resentment towards this king.

The appearance of the Lord of Frost was definitely a huge blow to the ambitious King of the Icefield.

If even the people of the Northern Kingdom had such thoughts, Lowry believed that the nobles of the Icefield Kingdom would definitely think so too.

Even if they didn't, they would all pin the blame on Alex!

Not to mention there was a certain possibility.

The Icefield Kingdom must be having a lot of fun lately.

But this Cesca, after confirming that the planet model was roughly successful, opened Vargas on the grassland.

Obviously, it was to confirm the information broker related to Scroll Mountain, and Handel's whereabouts at this moment.

Yes, that very capable information broker actually managed to take Handel through the terrifying glaciers and into Vargas before the heavy snow closed the mountains.

Lowry was shocked when he received this message.

It can only be said that people who can do such dangerous work in this complex world are quite extraordinary.

Moreover, Handel had even become a proper scholar when he entered Vargas.

Although Lowry wasn't very interested in this person and the shadows behind him, he had to say that Scroll Mountain didn't choose this guy among the six or seven somewhat arrogant quasi-scholars in his territory for no reason at all.

He even felt a little relieved because of this… Lowry had always felt that people who could become scholars were generally quite good in terms of intelligence and emotional intelligence.

Even if they were a little arrogant and conceited, they wouldn't be so blind to the environment they were in and the reality they were facing.

But Handel still chose a path that didn't seem easy to walk… Scroll Mountain was far away, but the powerful Lowry was close at hand!

But, if the other party guaranteed that he could break through to become a scholar, it was indeed worth a try for these people who had been trapped for a long time and were about to watch people who were originally inferior to them rush to the front.

Although it was still betrayal, Lowry preferred to accept this reason now.

After all, he had always felt that his control over the territory was tight, and he understood the bottom line of these 'wage earners', so the sudden appearance of a Handel actually made Lowry quite frustrated.

Of course, when Handel's sudden betrayal occurred, Lowry had already realized that something was wrong with himself.

If it were him two years ago, he would never have thought that the monitoring array was precise enough and the number of monitoring eyes was enough to be foolproof.

However, it seemed that while awakening the dragon's inherited memories, he had also become more and more confident.

To put it bluntly, it was arrogance in his bones.

The reason why Lowry didn't suffer too much loss when he was awakened by that accident was mainly because he really didn't have much desire.

But this wasn't because his brain was clear enough, but because there was nothing in this world that could stir up the impulses of a homebody like him.

If a computer that could connect to the past world appeared in front of him… Lowry felt that he would definitely go crazy, forget everything, and rush into the trap.

Fortunately, before someone could create such an illusion for him, he had already noticed the instability in his heart.

Lowry actually felt quite weird those few days.

He was obviously full of awe for the strong men in this world, and wholeheartedly hid in his territory to escape reality, so how could he suddenly have the arrogance of 'everything is under control'?

Although the reputation of homebodies has been ruined by some imposters who obviously have jobs and wives but just love to play games, the real homebodies are actually autistic people who are wantonly reckless in the virtual world and shrink into a ball in reality.

Lowry never thought about killing everyone from the bottom of his heart, he just wanted to make his little nest perfect enough.

Lowry didn't want to blame his subtle change of mentality on the dragon bloodline.

He knew very well that bloodline was never the reason for a person to lose their rationality.

It was still because the past few years had been too smooth, which made him numb himself.

Therefore, Lowry chose to let Cesca, who had always been calm, review the information.

Even though he had been reminding himself not to make the same mistake again during this period, if it were him, he would definitely have gone to see the Icefield Kingdom first.

After all, he had already read those reports!

Cesca's eyes roamed back and forth across the territory of Vargas.

If you only look at the land, Vargas is actually quite vast.

But in essence, because the grassland people mainly live by grazing, there are not many proper big cities, but rather small towns like stars in the sky.

Near each town, there is enough pasture for the residents of the town to survive.

When the young people of each town come of age, they must serve the king for more than three years before they can be eligible for the allocation of new town pastures.

Well, in Vargas, people without talent are not eligible to be allocated pastures, they can only work for the ranchers.

If they are lucky, they can work for their father or siblings' ranch.

Although it is still very hard, at least life is still okay, they can eat and drink enough, and they can marry and have children with people who also have no talent… They are still very popular in the environment of ordinary people.

After all, since their family has a rancher, it proves that their family's children have talent.

And once a pair of ordinary parents give birth to a talented child, they can go to their child's ranch to live out their old age.

Of course, if no talented people appear for several generations, they will naturally disappear completely due to losing the right to obtain a spouse.

Therefore, what the grassland people care most about is always talent, not blood.

They can use their untalented children as consumables, but they will praise the talented children to the sky.

It is said that a long, long time ago, before the Kingdom of O'Kinsey of the Southern Plains established by the Son of the Earth appeared, people who lived by grazing could only run around on the grassland, chasing water and grass.

After all, cattle, sheep and horses are creatures that cause great damage to the turf. Once the number is too large, the pasture that grows naturally cannot withstand it at all.

Therefore, the herdsmen can only wander around between patches of grassland, and even fight each other for a fertile land with water and grass.

The reason why the original Grassland Kingdom lived so comfortably was because no one envied their land that could only grow grass.

In this world where most of the land is very fertile, and even deserts are very rare, the grassland is really not robbed by anyone, and no one cares.

After all, there are no slightly decent minerals, and they can only exchange other living materials by selling meat.

The knights on the grassland are most proficient in whips, followed by bows and arrows… You can imagine how scarce their resources are.

But the King of O'Kinsey, who was deeply loved by the Earth God, appeared… He brought special pasture specifically cultivated for the grassland, and potions that could make vegetation grow rapidly.

Even, they have also cultivated the best weight-bearing magic horse… Not only can it carry thousands of pounds of heavy objects, but its lifespan has even been extended to 150 years.

This is the trump card.

The knights have since been strangled by the throat, and the biggest expenditure in their lives has since been given to O'Kinsey of the Southern Plains.

However, the Church of the Earth behind O'Kinsey of the Southern Plains is famous for being good at infighting.

Soon, the Grassland Kingdom quickly appeared, and they also developed their own exclusive horses.

Although it is not as good as O'Kinsey of the Southern Plains, the price is much different!

Vargas' specialty is a tall horse that can live for eighty years and carry 600 pounds.

The most important thing is that this horse can run normally in temperatures of minus fifty degrees, and it can also gallop freely on the snow, and it will not even slip on the ice.

It is very suitable for the cold climate in the Northern Territory where there are more than five months of cold weather a year.

Lowry's Living Feather Knight Order uses this kind of horse… and it is a long-haired white horse!

When running in the heavy snow, these white horses with eyes like rubies are really beautiful.

Even the knights with grayish-white rabbit fur cloaks on their horses are set off by these white horses to be particularly handsome.

Therefore, although Lowry also purchased some Southern Plains horses mainly red and black from O'Kinsey, he equipped his knight order with Vargas horses.

Although the little thoughts of his own lord are obvious, none of the knights of the Living Feather Knight Order envied those Southern Plains horses in the stable.

It is not that those things cannot move in the cold and snowy Northern Territory, but they have to be equipped with special magic equipment.

It is already great that their lord can provide the knight order with Vargas horses and standard knight equipment, who can ask him to provide such luxurious things?

The equipment itself is almost the same as a Vargas horse, but the biggest consumption is actually energy crystals… one piece a year.

Eight energy crystals are a Vargas horse.

Who can afford to burn it?

Even Cesca, who has the highest salary, is a little frightened when she thinks of this price!

The Southern Plains horses in the Northern Territory are basically used by nobles to pretend.

Therefore, even if every Living Feather Knight went to the stable to admire those Southern Plains horses, no one ever wanted to replace their partner.

After all, no matter how beautiful and oppressive those horses are, everyone can only think of mountains of gold coins when they see them.
