The Lord of Ashes

After the battle, more than 300 indigenous ice and snow creatures became prisoners of Thane and others.

Although they are all weaklings with low strength, this is still a good profit.

These captives were handed over to the witches at the fortress base and branded as slaves, and each combatant received a certain amount of reward.

Although this battle was almost a personal performance by Thain and his slave creatures, Thain, whose strength had reached level 3 and was quite wealthy, did not take a fancy to the rewards brought by these low-level indigenous creatures.

Except for the two edelweiss spirits that were captured alive and kept by him, the other indigenous ice and snow creatures were all accounted for by two witches and a group of knights.

Thain's generous approach also allowed him, as an "outsider", to win the favor of this group of knights and witches.

These knights are all local knights within the Northland Witches organization. If Thane is unable to open a gap in the witches for a long time, he will definitely study these knights in the end. .

He can't come in vain!

The witch who participated in this war, the first-level witch Wei Ya, was just a rookie. She had just been promoted to the first level, and she probably didn't have many decent specimens of alien creatures in the laboratory.

Thain's generous gift made Thain, who had seen the cold faces of the witches for a long time, finally see a calm and lovely smile.

Including even the second-level witch Bai Litan, she also performed a classical wizard ceremony on Thain.

The emergence of a second-level snowfield ice bear means that this witch's ice witchcraft potion will no longer be short of raw materials for a long time to come.

In fact, these witches are not cold spellcasters who have given up their emotions and desires.

It's just that they have been in the Northland all year round, so their temperament has already become cold and cold.

A witch stares at you with cold eyes, but this is actually her normal behavior.

If she hates you, she will behave in more extreme ways.

But then again, the temperament of witches also makes them more sincere than other magicians if they truly accept certain people.

The word "betrayal" will never appear in the Northland witch community.

Therefore, after truly understanding the group of witches, many people are willing to make them friends.

It's just very difficult. The friendship of a witch is not easily given to others.

And what is regarded as a feature is that if the witches form a family or fall in love, these witches will automatically leave the Northland and join the peripheral organizations of the Northland.

The real witches walking in the Northland are all single women.

This also means that there is no so-called "magic family" in the Northland.

…

After arriving at the fortress base, since Thain and his team had already experienced an encounter before, they were not immediately thrown into the battle, but were given a small half-day of precious rest time.

The vassal cooperation model between knights and witches also caused the group of northern knights who were originally following Thain to set up tents nearby.

It seems that the war in the Edelweiss world is indeed very tight.

Apparently it was said that the fourth-level indigenous god had been seriously injured by a wizard from the wizarding world.

But on the bottom battlefield, overall, the Wizarding World side is still in passive defense mode.

Around the fortress base in the ice and snow, Thane saw many magic towers emitting elemental light.

Thain did not see the space fortress, which is the vehicle of the powerful people above level 4 in the wizarding world. He thought that such a war platform had been assigned to other battlefields.

Taking advantage of half a day's free time, Thain did not choose to take a rest, but directly plunged into research.

The target of his research was the two Edelweiss spirits he had just captured, one at the first level and the other at the second level.

As elemental creatures, Edelweiss Spirits have no strict gender distinction.

These two little things, one big and one small, look like two snowflakes of different sizes from a distance, crystal clear and very beautiful.

And the fighting method of Edelweiss Spirit is also very strange.

As elemental creatures, they do not rely on their own power to fight, but have the ability to "integrate" into other ice and snow creatures.

For example, in the previous battle, these two Edelweiss spirits were integrated into the bodies of a first-level ice giant eel and a second-level ice rhinoceros.

After being integrated into the bodies of these ice creatures, the combat power they unleash is definitely more than just one plus one equals two.

What's even more peculiar is that the fighting method of the Edelweiss Spirit is not "seizing the body".

After the battle, these edelweiss spirits can fly out of the fused ice and snow creatures.

And various phenomena show that those ice and snow creatures do not reject the integration of the spirit of Edelweiss, but are very close to and like them.

This is also one of the important reasons why the Edelweiss Spirit, which is short in stature and does not have very strong actual combat capabilities, can become the dominant biological group in this plane.

The process of studying the Edelweiss Spirit made Thain amazed.

If the time was not too short, he would have wanted to dissect it to see the internal structure of this special creature.

Half a day later, the first-level witch Wei Ya came to Thain's tent to inform him to gather. Because Thane had already set up a magic doorbell outside the tent, Wei Ya quickly responded.

At this time, the sky outside was already turning gray, and the sky was foggy.

The world of Edelweiss is divided into day and night. Because the temperature is lower at night, these indigenous creatures are more difficult to deal with.

After meeting Thain again, the first-level witch Wei Ya was obviously very interested in Yuli who was following Thain.

At this time, Yuli did not release her constructed golem. Standing behind Thane, except for a few physical features, she was actually not much different in appearance from the human women in the wizarding world.

Wei Ya's movements of turning her head three times made a smile appear on the corner of Thain's mouth.

Seeing that there were no other witches around, Thain used his mental power to communicate and asked softly: "I am very interested in the witchcraft you used in the battle before. Can you find a time for us to communicate with each other?"

‏​​‎​‏‎‏‏‎‎​‏‏‎‎Sain’s question made Wei Ya cover her mouth in surprise.

It is indeed not a common phenomenon for a third-level great magician to exchange magic with a first-level witch.

Witch Wei Ya's cheeks were obviously a little different at this time, and she was a little shy.

This old guy, Thane, has lived for hundreds of years and is almost becoming a spirit.

Having served as the dean for two hundred years, he has a thorough understanding of the thoughts of these little guys who have just been promoted.

Before Wei Ya could say anything, Thane said directly: "I can lend you my slave to study for a period of time, and you can even study her constructed golem."

"Beyond that, maybe we can exchange some collections."

"I have been to many planes. I can give you some alien specimens that I don't need. You can also give me some of the witchcraft knowledge you know in exchange for equal value." Thain said with a smile.

Thain's smile was once called the "devil's smile" by Boss, the first-level magician of the Ebalut Empire.

And now, his smile has also succeeded again with Wei Ya.

Wei Ya glanced around with her beautiful little eyes, and when she saw no one around, she used the same method of mental transmission and whispered: "I can exchange with you some common witchcraft knowledge that I know, but if it involves The core mysteries of the sect are absolutely impossible to exchange with you."

"It doesn't matter. Ordinary witchcraft will do, too. I'm just interested in how the witches of the North use their power." Thain said with a smile.

Although Wei Ya's approach is not in line with the usual words and deeds of her mentors and senior sisters.

But seduced by the naked truth, the little girl finally nodded to Sean.
