Lone Wolf of the Freljord

Luo Xi hugged Mai Yisha and bit her pink bud fiercely: "You don't know how miserable I am today, the dragon is really scary..."

"But aren't you still successful?" Mai Yisha pointed to the dragon egg placed on the shore, "This is a flame dragon egg, it's a good thing."

"Does the flame dragon egg have any special effects?"

"Put it in the pool to heat the water all the time, and when we go back, we can soak in the hot springs in the palace!"

"Is that what you've worked so hard to steal a dragon egg for..." Luo Thirty patted Mai Yisha's butt, then sucked on her bud.

"Oh...you **** so hard...and there won't be any milk coming out..." Mai Yisha started to wiggle around on Luo 3's legs.

"You didn't tell me that you would still use that ability." Luo Thirty sucked on one side, referring to the fact that Mai Yisha brought him from the desert to the edge of the volcano all at once.

"What's this? You already know my shape clearly, and you still care about that?"

"I still want to know what abilities Protoss has."

"I'm a Twilight Star Spirit, you don't know a lot." Mai Yisha bit her lip and said, "You have to work hard, and you will know more about me when you become stronger and stronger. By the way, how is your anger? Have you mastered it?"

Luo Thirty told Mai Yisha of his experience today in detail, except for his stone: "I was out of breath when I was thinking of fighting that dragon to the death, and I thought about it carefully. When facing Varieva , and on the day of the competition, it seems that my anger came out because of this, will it be possible that my qi needs to grow in the battle of death?”

"It's possible." Mai Yisha nodded, "But didn't the grandmaster say that there are many ways to grow qi, and you shouldn't be able to make a conclusion about your qi. We'll verify it later."

"Yeah." Luo 30 sighed, "I really envy you and Setaka, a star spirit and an ascendant, the strength is so strong without training, but I even have to explore the threshold myself."

"This world is inherently unfair. Some people are born as emperors, and some people are born as slaves." Mai Yisha kissed Luo Shi's face, "But people like you who climbed from the deepest valley to the highest peak, right It's the most attractive to me."

What Mai Yisha said directly made Luo Thirty unable to bear it. He pushed Mai Yisha down at once and slammed her a few times.

In the hot spring, a man's low roar and a girl's cheers resounded.

...

Luo 30 and Mai Yisha came to the north.

Luo 30 did not choose to return to the imperial city to hand in the Fire Dragon Egg first. He planned to complete the twelve tasks in one go and then go back, lest the elders would see that he actually completed the task and make some crooked ideas. Temporarily stored with Mai Yisha, the ability of Twilight Star Spirit is really convenient, and you can store things casually.

Luo Thirty also asked Mai Yisha if she could use teleportation to let him have a private meeting with Setaka, but Mai Yisha said that Setaka was surrounded by many eyes and ears, and going back to the private meeting might cause unnecessary trouble, so she gave up, and it was done anyway. After twelve tasks, the Council of Elders had no reason to drive Luo Thirty out of the imperial city.

After knowing that Mai Yisha could be teleported anywhere, she still insisted on using Ramos to carry the two of them away, because she liked to ride Ramos.

Luo 30 saw that Ramos didn't have any opinion, and could only agree that the big dragon turtle took them to the north and came to a familiar city.

Varieva, the territory of the Lizard Girl Ascended.

Her territory was still empty, without a single inhabitant, and the inhabitants were all scared away by the murdered Varieva.

At the Queen's Celebration, Setaka also scolded Varieva severely for this incident, and in the end did not give her a new territory, but let her keep the empty city alone and reflect on it.

But judging from the current appearance of Varieva, she is not reflecting at all.

"Luo Thirty!" Varieva looked at Luo Thirty excitedly, her expression as if she saw a piece of fat, she grabbed Luo Thirteen directly, stuck out her tongue and licked his face, "Wow, hahaha! You! The anger is getting stronger again! Hahahaha!"

"Hey! Lord Varieva!" Mai Yisha hammered Varieva's calf, "He's my man!"

"Oh, okay." Varieva put Luo Shi down and looked at the two with a complicated expression, "But you two are really brave, you are really fighting Her Majesty's idea, and it was successful."

"If it wasn't for your sister who exposed us, it would have been more successful." Mai Yisha handed Luo Thia a handkerchief to wipe her face, and said angrily.

"Sigh... I don't really understand my sister's thoughts. Naganeka has always been very assertive. She probably just doesn't want His Majesty to marry Luo Thirty." Varieva sighed and then patted Luo. Thirty and Maiisha, "But I still thank you all for not telling Her Majesty that I, Varus and my sister were all involved in the plan of cheating marriage, otherwise even if Her Majesty the Queen forgives us, we will probably be killed by other ascendants. It's been thousands of years of cold eyes."

"There's no need for that." Luo Shi wiped his face and returned the handkerchief to Mai Yisha, "Varieva, I'm here to ask you to do us a favor this time."

Varieva frowned when she heard that Luo 30 did not use honorifics to her, but Luo 30 is now the queen's husband. Although she has not officially married, it seems that there is no problem without honorifics.

Varieva is not someone who cares about such trivial matters, she waved her hand: "Okay, what do you want me to help you with? You told me in advance that I would use the right to save you from death, but I didn't do anything at the celebration. If you don't do it, it will be your supply. Tell me, what do you want me to help with?"

"The elder will assign me twelve tasks, do you know that?"

"I know, this matter has been spread all over Shurima, but the Council of Elders is really cruel, all the tasks given to you are deliberately making things difficult for you." Varieva stuck out her tongue, "You wouldn't be Do you want me to help you with the task?"

"That's right."

"This... No." Varieva directly refused, "To tell the truth, I have no confidence to complete the task the elder will give you, and this is your task. If I help you, it will be cheating. You have to complete it yourself to prove it. You are worthy of your Majesty."

"Lord Varieva, it's not right for you to say that." Mai Yisha stood up at this time, "Isn't network resources considered an ability? Her Majesty does not rely on herself, but on orders. Many Ascendants and countless Shurima people have created a great empire. It is Luo Thirty's ability to get others to help her, and the Presbyterian Church has never said that Luo Thirty must do it alone."

Varieva was at a loss for words, and she found that she really couldn't find anything to refute.

"And now almost all ascenders hate Luo 30, and at this time there is an ascender who comes out to help him, wouldn't it make you look unique? If Luo 30 successfully completes all the tasks, you are the most far-sighted ascender! Moreover, Luo 30 will also teach you how to use qi, no matter what you think you will make money!" Mai Yisha said bewitchingly.

Luo 30 looked at Mai Yisha speechlessly, knowing her for so long, her skill in flattering is still undiminished.

"Uh... How can Tayanari have such a eloquent life-carrying person like you." Varieva struggled for a while, and finally the thirst for chi overwhelmed everything, "Okay! I'll give it up! I have endured being scolded by other Ascended compatriots! Tell me, what do you want me to help you with."

"Hehe." Mai Yisha smiled, "We want you to help us with a task, of course not just for you, Luo Thirty will also help."

"Which mission"

"Build a canal."

————————————————————————————————————

Shurima is a desert country. In the barren desert, the river line is the lifeline of Shurima.

- Setaka

Chapter 496 Difficulties in the Canal

Canals are extremely important to Shurima.

Almost all of Shurima is desert, and there are no naturally formed rivers. The oasis of dawn, where the imperial city originated, transports river water to all of Shurima.

But Shurima is too big, the desert climate is fickle, and many tributaries are difficult to flow too far, and they will dry up halfway.

This is not serious in the south of Shurima surrounded by huge mountains, but almost a river cannot spread to the north of the Imperial City of Shurima, making the northern cities of Shurima almost all close to the coast, and the coastal cities A huge empty no-man's land was formed between it and the imperial city, just like a big hole in the Shurima Empire, and there was no city on the huge territory.

This empty area is known as the "Dasai Desert".

Because the northern coastal cities are too far from the central imperial city, and there are no buffer cities in the middle, all these coastal cities are in a state of "the sky is high and the emperor is far away", and rebellions occur frequently, and the empire has to send many ascendants and troops to guard the north. .

The existence of the Great Sai Desert also greatly limited Shurima's intention to expand to the northern continent of Valoran.

There is only one way to solve these problems once and for all - to build a canal from the imperial city to the north, which can not only solve the problems of cities on the northern coast, but also build new cities along the canal to fill the huge desert of Dasai. the void.

This fortification has troubled the Shurima royal family for a long time. There have been many attempts to open a canal to the north for thousands of years. However, the sand in the Dasai Desert is fickle, making it difficult to build foundations, and natural disasters occur almost every day. The built fortifications were destroyed, and in the end, the lives of countless slaves were filled in and no canal to the north was built.

"The last attempt to build a canal I remember was one hundred and fifty years ago." Varieva tapped the map of Shurima on the table with her paw, "At that time, Her Majesty the Queen was very busy building this fortification, but she died in the end. After a lot of slaves, I still can't cultivate, and His Majesty has been arguing with the Council of Elders for quite a while."

"Canal..." Luo 30 couldn't help recalling when he was still scavenging.

Slaves are also divided into three, six, and nine classes. For example, private pets raised by nobles are naturally the highest. As long as they are favored by their masters, they will not only be safe, but also enjoy brocade clothing and jade food, and their lives will be much better than that of commoners.

What's worse is that scavenger slaves like Luo Thirty are hard to get food and clothing, and no one cares where they die.

But there is something worse than the scavenger slaves, that is, the slaves who are forcibly dragged to build large-scale fortifications.

It is said that the magnificent imperial city of Shurima was built with the lives of hundreds of thousands of slaves.

"Your Majesty the Queen has improved a lot this time." Mai Yisha could see what Luo Thirty was thinking, "Your Majesty also recruited a group of slaves on a large scale when building the canal, and other than that, no fortifications were built. ."

"I don't care about this." Luo Shi shook his head and said, "I was thinking that the tasks the elders will give me are so outrageous that hundreds of thousands of slaves can't build a canal, so let me do it alone. "

"Indeed." Varieva also felt the same way, "When Her Majesty's father was on the throne, he tried to summon hundreds of Ascendants to open the canal. I also participated, but the Dasai Desert is really not a place for people to stay. Sandstorms As soon as the earthquake came, the channel that had just been dug was completely buried after a while, and it was impossible to reinforce it by any method.”

As Varieva said, she marked on the map: "Generally, there are two ways to build the canal. One is to build the canal from the imperial city to the northwest, and the end point is Uzelis, which is a city rich in fishery products, and another Own port. The other is to repair from the imperial city to the north, passing through Zurita, and the end point is Nashramei, which is a very good trading city, and foreign merchants from the north like to gather there to trade."

"What's the difference between these two methods?" Luo Thirty looked at the map curiously. He never thought that he could "overlook" the entire Shurima in this way.

"The disadvantage of building to the northwest is obvious. The length of the canal will be much longer. The advantage is that it can avoid the worst central area of ​​the Dasai Desert, and the canal is not easily destroyed by sandstorms and earthquakes." After all, he is also a person who has obtained the qualification for ascension. He has a very clear understanding of national affairs. "The revision to the north direction is the opposite. The distance will be much shorter, but there will be more natural disasters."

"The mission of the Presbyterian Church is to ask Luo Thirty to build a canal to the north. There is no specific orientation required. As long as it can flow into the sea to the north, it will be a success." Mai Yisha looked at Luo Thirty and smiled, "You think we should choose which route"

Luo Shi looked at the map and asked a question: "Why don't you go to the northeast to repair it?"

"Building the canal to the northeast is the longest of the three directions, and it also has to pass through the hinterland of the Dasai Desert." Varieva pointed to the map of the northeast of Shurima, "And you see, there are many mountains and hills in the northeast, and the terrain It is very uneven, and it is basically impossible to build a canal in this direction, and it is not enough to fill millions of slaves in it."

"But the construction of the canal in the northwest and due north has failed." Luo Shi frowned. "With so many resources in Setaka's hands, we have failed. If we go back to her path, there is no hope of success."

"Uh... what you said makes sense..." Varieva stretched out her tongue and licked her eyes, "But it's really not practical to build a canal to the northeast."

"I have to see it with my own eyes to know whether it is real or not." Mai Yisha put her finger on the imperial city and rowed all the way to the coastline in the northeast, "There is also the city of Belgün in the northeast. I remember it as a good place rich in mammoth wool. There is also a very lively black market, which is also good as the end of the canal.”

"Bergun..." Varieva recalled, "I remember that there was an Ascended who had a worse temper than I was stationed there. He should not allow you to build the canal into his city."

"It seems that we can only go and convince him." Mai Yisha shrugged, "We will personally take a trip to the northeast route and explore the specific route suitable for building the canal."

"The Council of Elders is really not a thing, to give you such a hopeless task." Varieva's head almost exploded at the thought of how troublesome it was to repair the canal.

"No matter how difficult it is, it means that the elders will never be able to think of a more excessive way to make things difficult for me." Luo Shi smiled freely.

Varieva raised her head unexpectedly and looked at Luo Thirty: "You are quite open-minded, and the husband of Her Majesty has become wider-minded?"

"It's not worthy of Setaka if it's not broad." Luo 30 smiled bitterly. "Now there are tens of millions of people in Shurima who want to kill me. It's impossible for me to take revenge one by one."

"Well, yes, people who do big things have to have such a mind. I despise those who are petty and caressed the most."

Luo Si silently took the handkerchief from Mai Yisha, who was smirking, and said while wiping: "But it is true that the repair of the canal will not be completed in a while, so we will complete other tasks as we set out to the northeast. Fortunately, twelve There is no task more difficult than building a canal."

"Okay, let's go then." Varieva put away the map.

"Master Varieva, don't you have to prepare anything?" Mai Yisa asked, "Is this city here?"

"Anyway, all the people who broke the city have run away, it doesn't matter." Varieva waved her paws.

Maiisha nodded: "By the way, Lord Varieva, who is stationed in Bergun, who is the bad-tempered Ascended Lord? I want to know about him and Lord Tayanari. Is there any friendship?"

"If you want to rely on Tayanari to gain a relationship, forget it. That guy is a stone in a cesspool. It's stinky and hard. Except for Her Majesty the Queen and the Grand Scholar, I haven't seen him give anyone much face." Rieva said, "His name is Aatrox."

"The emperor is willing to exchange the wealth of the entire Shurima royal family for a waterway to the north."

—The heartfelt words of a Shurima emperor

Chapter 497: Night in the Desert of Dasai

Luo 30 walked in the desert at night with Mai Yisa in her arms.

They had been traveling with Varieva for many days, all the way to the northeast.

In order to observe the suitable places for the construction of the canal along the way, Ramos cannot be used for walking. After all, although it is safe and comfortable to be in his solid carapace, nothing can be seen outside.

However, it was impossible for them to walk across the desert on foot. Even if Mai Yisha was willing to use her soft feet to touch the sand, it would still be too time-consuming to walk through the entire Dasai Desert.

Fortunately, Varieva still has a lot of power as an ascendant, and she doesn't know where she got a "Skalash".

Skalash is a dialect of western Shurima, meaning "Beast of the Pack".

This is the largest pack beast in the Shurima Desert. An adult Scarash can reach ten people tall. Its long four hooves allow it to cross anywhere in the desert, and its huge hump allows it to go without food for months. Drinking and carrying tons of cargo at the same time, this animal supports nearly all of the long-distance overland trade in the Shurima Desert.

Luo 30 has also seen a lot of Scarash, and knows how expensive this creature is, but it should not be difficult for Varieva to get one as an ascender.

Although Scarashe is very short-tempered, it is said that it dares to kick any beast, but in the face of the coercion of the Varieva Ascended, this Scarasher is very honest, and does not dare to swing its tail. .

Scarash carried the three of them all the way to the northwest. Now that the story of Luo Thirty has spread all over Shurima, in order not to be discovered by the eyes and ears of the Presbyterian Church, the appearance of the three of them was obscured by Mai Yisha with illusion, Vari Eva was also packaged into an ordinary woman by her illusion.

"Well... I remember that I was very beautiful before I ascended..." Varieva protested her illusionary appearance once or twice along the way, but she is not a person who pays much attention to appearance, and her attention soon shifted to Discuss "Qi" with Luo Thirty.

The three of them headed all the way to the uninhabited desert in the northeast. Scarash drove them for half a month before they finally found a small oasis. Mai Yisha, who wanted to take a bath, suggested to rest here for the night.

Varieva had already slept. Although Ascendants didn't need to sleep, she said that sleeping was one of her few pastimes, so every day she slept on Scarash's back before the sun set.

"How do you feel?" Mai Yisha said with a smile, "I took a bath with me and Vari Eva just now."

"You're okay, Varieva just..." Luo Thirty remembered the "carcass" that Varieva showed, "I hope I won't have nightmares tonight."

The desert at night was so cold that people could freeze to death. Luo Thirty wondered if Mai Yisha would feel cold as a Protoss, but he still approved a piece of fur on his body to cover himself and Mai Yisha.

"Hee hee hee." Mai Yisha smiled happily. She looked up at the sky. There were few thick clouds in the desert sky, and Xingyue could see it very clearly, "You know what? What about us."

"Is the giant god..." Luo 30 looked at the sky, and the twinkling stars and moons turned into quiet eyes in his eyes, "How did you get selected by the giant **** to be a star spirit?"

"Want to know?"

"Um."

"I won't tell you."

"..."

"Oh, don't touch anywhere! It's alright! I'll tell you it's not enough!" Mai Yisa pouted, "I'll tell you when you become an ascender."

"Why wait until I become an ascendant and can't become a Protoss directly?"

"After becoming a Protoss, there are a lot of restrictions." Mai Yisha rolled her eyes, "Look at me, as a Protoss, I can't reveal my identity when I see an ascendant on the ground, or I will be taken back by the giants to preach for a long time, trouble to die. Yes. Anyway, both Ascenders and Protoss are immortal, and when you become an Ascended, you will have enough time to consider whether or not to become Protoss."

"Okay..." Luo Shi felt that what Mai Yisha said made sense, "but I'm still far from becoming an ascendant."
