The Frozen Forest is a forest on the back of the entire continent. To the north of this place is the endless sea. The temperature here is below minus 30 degrees all year round. Even at the hottest time, it is still covered with ice and snow. It has never been
No one has ever seen land in the frozen forest. There is only snow here. If there is land, it can only be seen by Warcraft. There are almost no permanent humans here. If there is land,
If you live here, you don't have the ability of a sixth-level warrior. The cold alone may freeze you to death. Only those who are a sixth-level warrior or above can ignore the temperature outside.
Most of the people in the Frozen Forest are mercenaries or adventurers, or people running around for missions. It can be said that this place is different from the Warcraft Mountains. There are some fixed gatherings in the Warcraft Mountains.
Yes, but there is absolutely no gathering point here now. No one will do business in such a place. It can freeze people to death. Moreover, the number and variety of Warcraft here cannot be compared with the Warcraft Mountains.
The difference between this place and the World of Warcraft Mountains is that there are many ice magicians here. It is cold and icy and snowy, so for ice magicians, this is their paradise, and they want to realize their own spirituality here.
Mental strength, get your own improvement.
In fact, the above news is what ordinary people know. In fact, there are many things that ordinary people don't know. For example, seven hundred miles deep into the frozen forest, the two mountain ranges here have basically been hollowed out.
Inside is the headquarters of the Thunder and Lightning Sect that Li Cong wants to trace. Don't look at such a huge place. In fact, there are less than thirty people here. These thirty people are the absolute core of the Thunder and Lightning Sect. Of course, there are dozens more.
Thousands of ordinary people, their task here is to serve these thirty people well, and they are not afraid of these people running out. These guys are ordinary people. Even if they can run out, they are not afraid of the threat of those drugs
, the ice and snow outside can kill them. Every time they communicate with the outside, they rely on a flying monster in the frozen forest. Only when they step on it as a last resort will someone get out.
It can be said that Cristio is very close to here, only 1,500 miles away at most, but he has no idea that the place he has been curious about all his life is actually here. He thought this place would be in the core of the frozen forest.
Yes, even a ninth-level warrior there would not have survived in the past. He also wanted to investigate, but unfortunately he did not have the ability, so the matter was shelved, but Li Cong did not give up easily.
Man, Li Cong is already preparing to study the Frozen Forest. Of course, the most important thing is to find the Thunder Gate as soon as possible.
Of the thirty people inside the Thunder and Lightning Sect, two of them are sect leaders, and the other twenty-eight people are the bosses of various departments. They will never go outside at all. Many people say that the four masters of the Wind, Rain, Thunder and Lightning Hall will be there.
Outside, in fact, it is not like that at all. There are about forty or so deputy church leaders outside to help them with their affairs. They only need to share the news with you at the monthly meeting. Apart from the four of them,
The others are the bosses of each department. In addition to the Four Halls of Wind, Rain, Thunder and Lightning, there are other departments. For example, the purchasing department and the training department. They all know the importance of these two departments. They are not much worse than the Four Halls. They can
It is said that they are the foundation of the Four Halls. Without the people they trained, the Four Halls would not have been able to occupy so much territory and resources so easily. Therefore, everyone must be polite even if they have conflicts.
Today is the monthly meeting. The issues they want to discuss are basically not the same as the current ones. Although the speed of Flying Warcraft is very fast, the news they got is basically half a year ago. In this news
In this era of blockage, they can only do what they did half a year ago now. This is also destined. Of course, Li Cong's airship can alleviate it, but if they don't have it, they can only rely on their flying monsters.
.
"Everyone, please each report the news you have received in the past month, and we will discuss it." A guy sitting on the left said. There seemed to be a ball of flame on this guy's eyebrows. This guy
He is a ninth-level warrior, a ninth-level high-level warrior, but this person is different from ordinary ninth-level warriors. This person has obtained the source of power. It is estimated that only one among ten thousand ninth-level warriors can
Once recognized by the source of power, this guy's strength will also be greatly improved. Only people with level eight warriors and above can be recognized by the root of power.
Li Cong had never seen such a person before. Among the people he knew, many people were said to be ninth-level peak warriors, but those so-called peak warriors were compared with those recognized by the source of power.
They are not even bullshit. Let’s just say Lu Manjia’s father, Dai Tian, can be said to be the most powerful ninth-level warrior Li Cong has ever seen. If the man who just spoke had a good fight with Dai Tian, I guess Dai Tian would not be able to do it.
It will turn into meat paste in half an hour. The difference in strength is so big. Many people know that if there is a battle between ninth-level warriors, if you don’t want to fight, you can definitely run away, so it is very easy to defeat the enemy in their battle.
It's easy, but it's very troublesome to kill the enemy. But for those who have recognized the source of power, this is a very simple matter. They can easily defeat ordinary ninth-level warriors.
"Let me first report on the affairs of the Southern Empire. The whole Southern Empire has been shaken recently. It is the Cao Family Trading Company that you mentioned before. Now it has spread all over the Southern Empire. Our people have investigated it.
, their various businesses are doing very well, especially the alchemy activity they conducted last time, I estimate that they can make tens of trillions of silver in one go." said a guy in black clothes.
The hall master who manages the territory of the Southern Empire is just an eighth-level warrior, but he is also recognized by the source of power. Even against a ninth-level mid-level warrior, he will never suffer.
"Last month, the Cao Family Trading Company was only among the top twenty large chambers of commerce in the Northern Empire. If they can really make away with tens of trillions of silver in a short period of time, I think they can rank among the top three.
Famous." The guy who spoke first said that what Cao's Trading Company can draw their attention to is its ability to make money. As for the other things, it is impossible to attract their attention. People here don't know what happened.
As for what happened in the Forgotten Land, if he had known about it, he probably wouldn't be as calm as he is now.
"Haha. What a coincidence. What I want to talk about is also the news about the Cao Family Trading Company. A force controlled by one of our ninth-level warriors in the Northern Empire tried to conduct a series of actions against the Cao Family Trading Company's convoy, but you know the final result.
What is it?" This guy is the person in charge of the Northern Empire. This guy likes to titillate when he talks. This guy is a ninth-level warrior, but he has not been recognized by the source of power. Although he is not that powerful, this guy's brain is pretty good.
It is not comparable to ordinary people. He is the only person here who is not recognized by the source of power, but this guy does not feel that his status is much lower than other people. Many people are very important to this guy, especially this guy.
The guy's head, what he says is important.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense, just say it directly. Such a huge guy will collide with us sooner or later. But our strength is not very strong now. Don't forget our purpose. A little collision will be enough.
But there must be no large-scale conflict. It is other people's business to make money. I feel jealous just like you, but that money is not something we can take. At this stage, we have to rely on our own strength and do evil things.
Things may end up hurting us." The guy on the first seat said. He is either the sect leader of the Thunder Sect or the deputy sect leader, and only the two of them are qualified to sit there. The other people are here.
Hehe and the others didn't have the guts to sit there.
"Our guy directly bribed a lot of bandits to do this, but none of the dozens of convoys succeeded. I saw this as a joke at first, but now I don't see it that way. I think
This Cao Family Trading Company must attract our attention. Their escort team is very powerful. According to their establishment, one of their regiments can withstand attacks by tens of thousands of bandits. Their current escort team is definitely quite large. If they continue
If it continues to develop like this, it will be a very big hidden danger." This guy no longer had the same smile as before. People in this organization are like this. Normally, if there is no serious matter, everyone can say whatever they want. If there is,
If things were serious, this wouldn't be possible.
His words made everyone here basically sit upright. This is the first time in the past three hundred years that someone has proposed a threatening organization, whether it is a mercenary group or an imperial force, a big family, a powerful person,
Regardless of the royal family, no matter how developed they are, basically no one says that they pose a threat to the Thunder Gate, but today this word was spoken, and some people say that they pose a threat. They all know the people here.
He won't talk nonsense casually, since he said it, it must be true.
"What's your opinion? Do you think they are a threat?" said the guy sitting in the main seat.
"Sect Master, what I mean is the same as what he said. This matter is not that simple. How long has it been since the Cao Family Trading Company appeared? Their strength may not be able to threaten us, but their development speed
It's really a bit fast. Although on the surface they are just making money, what is this money? Money is the basis of rotation in this world. Many people say that strength determines everything. I also admit this sentence, but strength cannot.
Many people are willing to do things for you, but money can do it. One trillion silver or a tenth-level warrior, who do you think is more reliable? A tenth-level warrior can do many things, but one trillion silver can do
What's more, they are crazily amassing wealth, which illustrates a problem. These guys may have other ideas. Now they may just want to do business, but when the assets in their hands reach a certain level,
That will be completely different. At that time, they will naturally have thoughts of domination, so this will attract our absolute attention." Everyone else in the room also began to express their opinions.
"I agree with this. We must pay more attention to the Cao Family Trading Company. In the past, we thought that only the royal families of the four empires and their magician unions were our enemies, but now I think the Cao Family Trading Company
He may become our enemy, so I propose that the entire organization collect some information about the Cao Family Trading Company for us." The old man who had been silent said, he may be the oldest person in the entire organization, for such a person
They are all very substantial.
Other people also nodded one after another, and their sense of worry was still very good. In this way, a resolution was passed. If they knew that Li Cong had controlled the Forgotten Land, they might not just call for investigation.
If it is so simple, they will definitely take some other actions. Then things will not be that simple. At this stage, Li Cong will not be able to focus on development. He will definitely face great challenges.
These people launched an investigation into the Cao Family Trading Company. Although the Cao Family Trading Company now knew that there was such an enemy, they did not know what to do at this moment. They had no idea what kind of orders the Thunder Sect had issued against them.
, this order from the Thunder and Lightning Sect can be said to set off a big wave. Many people and forces in the Thunder and Lightning Sect are hidden in secret. Maybe Li Cong fell into the enemy's trap without knowing it. Such things will happen in the future.
It may happen frequently.
Li Cong tried several times to test the third largest force in the Forgotten Land, Sharp Gang, and found that they were not subordinates of the Thunder Sect as Cristio said. Li Cong even went to the boss's house on a dark and windy night.
Knocked the guy unconscious in the room, and checked the guy carefully. There was no sign of the thunder gate at all. At this time, Li Congtai was relieved. Cristio once said that everyone has thunder and lightning on their bodies.
As long as he is one of their people, this sign is a must. Since there is no sign on his body, it means that this guy may not be from there, so Li Cong is planning to put it in two to three years.
This sharp gang will be eaten up and the entire Forgotten Land will become his own within five to eight years. This is a long-term goal, but Li Cong himself is absolutely confident that he can kill them.
A few months later, Li Cong had basically become the largest force in the Forgotten Land. At this time, a not-so-difficult problem facing Li Cong was that the Cao Family Trading Company had received a large amount of gold and silver.
In the past, no matter how many trillions of silver or tens of trillions of silver, it was all silver or gold tickets, but now it is all real gold and silver. The Cao Family Commercial Bank does not even have enough boxes to hold the silver. There are dozens of them.
Ten thousand boxes have been transported, but it is still not enough. This is mainly because people here basically do not use banknotes. For transactions involving millions of silver, they always ask people to carry silver.
"Master, now we have 11 billion silver in cash. These things are very dangerous. I finally know what it means to have too much money and it's hot. Damn it, how do people here transport all this money?"
Well, look at how big a mountain of gold and silver this is." 002 took Li Cong to the warehouse behind them, and Li Cong was also surprised.
Damn it, 50 grams of silver is one tael of silver, ten taels of silver is one pound, two taels of silver is 1,000 grams, these 000 taels of silver are one ton of silver, and 11 billion silver is a total of 550,000 tons of silver, even here on earth.
550,000 tons is definitely not a small amount. It is also very important to transport it with mechanized equipment. Not to mention that there is not so much mechanized equipment here. Most of them are transported by ox carts and the like.
The fact that these people were able to get so much money here was definitely their own merit. Li Cong was also sighing at this time.
"Haha, don't be surprised. In fact, the people who can come here are all capable people. The people who are incapable will probably be killed when the people of the Northern Empire catch them. They can come here because they have money.
, Besides, this place has been deposited for tens of thousands of years. The money here has always been brought in but cannot be taken out. All the money accumulated here is definitely a very huge amount." Cristio will leave soon.
, but in the days before leaving, the gang leader Li Cong still handled some things. Li Cong also very much agreed with this guy's cooperation. This guy is quite fastidious.
"Yes, we just give them a channel now. It's very good. Thirty percent of the money belongs to us. I really didn't know that this money can be earned so easily. Forget it, I'll do this myself.
Just do it, just let people gather all the money here, and I will find a way to get them away." Li Cong said with a smile, 002 knew this was the case when he called Li Lai, Li Cong was sure
There will be space rings, but I didn’t expect Li Cong to have such a big one.
Cristio on the side did not expect that there would be such a big space ring. It is true that there is no such big space ring. But the space in Li Cong's own body is okay. The space in Li Cong's body is still expanding. Li Cong's body space is still expanding.
It is estimated that although it is not as big as this planet now, it is still no problem to be as big as several earths. It is a piece of cake to load these things, and these things do not need to be transported to the mainland at all. The ticket number over there
There is a lot of money. How could they not even get out this little money? Moreover, when they get there, they can at most just change the banknotes themselves. Only fools would bring so much money. Isn't that inviting robbers? Those robbers
He has very wicked eyes.
The people working below encountered a strange thing this afternoon. Yesterday they also delivered several carts of silver and gold, but for some reason it seemed that all the silver was gone today. Most of the silver arrived.
Where did it go? Yesterday there was as much money as a mountain here, but today it seems to be just a small mountain. They were all surprised by such a change. Where did the money go? Is it just like that?
No more? Who could possibly rob the silver? Although the Forgotten Land is very chaotic, it is estimated that no one has the courage to come here to rob the silver, right?
Li Cong looked at each of them and had so many questions, but he didn't explain to them. These people don't need to know that much. They are just people who handle things, just transportation. As for the rest, they don't need to know.
So much. Knowing too much will not do them any good.
In the largest square in the Forgotten Land, the director of the Cao Family Trading Company wants to recruit some adventurers here today. The people recruited must be sixth-level warriors or above. Ordinary people can also do it, but they must enter the ice.
For forest workers, there is no problem for ordinary people to go in for a month or two. But Li Cong wants to go deep, and they cannot go in too much in a month or two, so they can only wander around.
, there is no need for them to investigate in this peripheral place, so why do we need so many ordinary people? The salary given is very generous. In the past, as long as they saw such recruitment information, these guys would probably leave immediately.
Yes. Because they go to the frozen forest to fight with their heads. There is no need. They might as well rob a few new people in the city. In this way, their life will be very comfortable. But today
But many people come to see this, and they all feel that the treatment here is really good.
During the one-year field trip, as long as you write down everything you see, you will be paid more than 00,000 taels of silver when you come back. Of course, don’t think that you can find a place to stay without working after you go in.
There are airships in the sky every day to transport foster care to people in a certain area. Unless they are sick, if they are in the same place for two days, I'm sorry, your fee will be reduced, but if you find out
Your salary will also increase exponentially if you discover some large-scale things that others have not discovered. If you discover some huge metal veins, that would be great, and you will make a fortune in your life.
Many sixth-level warriors are also excited at this time. Although they can get this amount in this city in a year, they can't save this money. They can basically spend this money on eating, drinking and having fun in normal times.
It’s impossible to have so much money left after you’re done. If you join this expedition group, you’ll just walk around in the frozen forest and write down everything you know. This job sounds like a lot of work.
It's very good, that is, there is so much money in one year, and it is also said that as long as people who are not lazy and behave well can basically be sent to the Southern Empire, this is a lot of money.
Yes, if they go there by themselves, it will cost tens of millions of silver. They will definitely not be able to make this money. Of course, Li Cong cannot send them all there. He can just send dozens of them over to show their ability.
This matter is enough. If everyone leaves, what will happen to my career here? None of these people have peace of mind.
In one morning, more than 60,000 people signed up at the thirty-five registration points in the Forgotten Land, and there were even eighth-level warriors among them. However, no matter you are an eighth-level warrior or a sixth-level warrior, as long as you have not obtained anything
Sorry for the news, you can only get a basic salary of 00,000 silver, and it is impossible for Li Cong to take all of these applicants. If he did, he would probably have his money bag empty. Li Cong
We only need five thousand people, and the rest can only feel sorry for you.
The test will be held in a week. Each of them is a little nervous. They finally have the opportunity to make so much money at once. They must keep it. Only one out of ten people wants this one.
During the week, there were fierce battles everywhere in the Forgotten Land. In fact, this was one of Li Cong's ways to weaken them. So many of them were level six warriors or above. Their combat effectiveness was also very objective. If you could control it yourself
If it's not good, there will be some turmoil here. You will be the one who suffers, and you definitely don't want to suffer, so I'm sorry, you can only kill each other.
When the number of people was counted again a week later, everyone was dumbfounded. There were only 10,250 people left, and nearly 50,000 people had died. The remaining people were basically the more powerful people among them. Some of them were
People were selected to enter the frozen forest. As for the remaining ones who were not selected, Li Cong also gave them a salary of 1.5 million taels to help them stabilize the security here. Although the money is not much, it is better than insurance.
Those who are in arrears, some people usually have nothing to do. They all work hard for the opportunity to go to the Southern Empire. Such things do not happen every day. If you prepare money by yourself, it will be 60 million taels of silver.
They are definitely not complete. Only those who originally lived in the innermost level have that ability, and not everyone in the innermost level has that ability63+
., only a small part can.
It would take 40 years to make money from this job. For ordinary people, 40 years may be a long time. But for these people, 40 years is not that much. They can easily make it.
In the past 40 years, these people have been here for hundreds of years, so 40 years is nothing to them, they just live like that.
In the outermost areas of the Frozen Forest, Li Cong also recruited 300,000 ordinary people, and they all conducted pull searches in the border areas of the Frozen Forest. Supplies in remote areas are also very easy.
In fact, Li Cong's idea is to seal off the Frozen Forest. Since they are sure that the Thunder Gate is in the Frozen Forest, they will definitely have various contacts with the outside world. By then, as long as these people show their feet,
, I can always catch them.
Most of the people in the Forgotten Land are desperadoes. They cannot survive in this place at all. Li Cong wants to recruit ordinary people, not to mention 300,000 people, even 3 million people will be no problem. From the beginning
All these guys want to do is to mess around, but it will be different after they eat their first meal. The output of genetic medicine can be used by hundreds of millions of people, and so many can be produced every year. Each of these people can
They are all very dedicated.
On the first day, Li Cong used dozens of airships and tens of thousands of sleds to transport these guys to the predetermined location. In the first month, they just scouted the surrounding area and established a huge camp, and then they provided a large amount of food.
Some heating supplies were brought here. After they leave, Li Cong will still let more people come, so this is a permanent fortification.
The temperature here is very low for ordinary people, but Li Cong has experienced places where the temperature is even lower than this on the rty planet. This low temperature is really nothing to Li Cong. These following
This is not the first time that people have entered the frozen forest. Some things that need attention do not need to be said by themselves at all. They all know it very well.
"Sir, if this thunder gate is really inside the frozen forest, they should have reacted if we did it in such a big way." 002 said while looking at the hundreds of people digging in front of him. They wanted to take half of the tent.
It is built underground, and the other half is outside. Otherwise, it would be easily blown away by the wind if it were outside. The wind here is definitely not small.
"I feel the same way, but we have been here for a while, and the sixth-level warriors have already penetrated three hundred miles, and still haven't found anything. Although there are some people living here, they are all
One or two withdrawn people, these people are not considered normal people here at all, let alone the Thunder Sect." Li Cong felt a little unsure at this moment, maybe Cristio didn't know,
Their headquarters may not be in remote areas, but hundreds of thousands of people just entered the frozen forest, and Li Cong didn't ask the people below to keep silent. Whenever he met people, he would ask them about the Thunder Gate.
If the headquarters of the Thunder Sect is really here, there is absolutely no way that they don't know about it.
"Maybe the place where they live is still inside. Let's just continue to wait. The airship has already penetrated 500 miles away for reconnaissance. It will reach 600 miles away tonight. I really don't know where they are in such a cold place.
How did you live?" 002 obviously didn't know how those guys on the airship lived. The temperature there was definitely minus 30 degrees.
Li Cong didn't answer him and just smiled. In fact, those guys can easily survive this severe cold. Every airship that operates here has been equipped with heating equipment. It's minus thirty outside.
The temperature inside is fifteen degrees above zero. Naturally, they won’t feel any cold. Let alone entering 600 miles, even if they enter 6,000 miles, it will be nothing. Besides, the innermost and the outermost
The temperature is not much different. Historically, people in the mouth can't move forward until they reach a place about 5,000 miles away from Li Cong. This is not because of the temperature problem in front, but because there are too many monsters inside.
, the temperature drop has no impact on Warcraft, because they have been living here from beginning to end. For them, temperature is their best friend, and their biggest enemy is humans. Those who want to kill them take away them.
For humans who sell money, temperature is the most damaging factor to humans. In fact, some less fatal injuries are nothing to humans, but if humans are exposed to low temperatures, they may become fatal injuries.
The Thunder Gate is said to be in the Frozen Forest. In fact, they are just under those two mountains. As long as they are less than a hundred miles away from them, it is absolutely impossible for them to see the surrounding situation. They have no idea about other places.
They are not in the mood, because they know clearly that no one can come in in these places around them. Even if someone does come in, they are just mercenaries. Those who are not a threat will be let go, and those who are a threat will be killed directly. As long as they are not
Tenth-level warriors and ninth-level magicians can easily kill those people. Of course, except for some special tasks, it is impossible for such powerful people to come to such a place. Those people will not
There is nothing wrong with wasting time in a place like this, they should all practice well.
The people in the Thunder Gate still lived according to their original habits, but one morning, they heard some unusual sounds. Many people here were very powerful people, and many of them knew clearly what was going on outside.
Any sound, such a sound is impossible for them. Could it be that some powerful warriors and magicians have appeared here? The organization has not been very calm recently, and several adults have been very patient.
Well, if possible, it would be better to kill these people and let them vent their anger than to hold it in one by one now.
Several people responsible for observation slowly walked to their posts. From the outside, it looked like a very thick tree, but from the inside, it was empty. It was very convenient for people to get in and out.
People inside can observe people outside from here. Except for the space magician, it is impossible for other people to know that this is an observation post. Even the airship in the sky cannot know that there is a small airship in the sky at this moment. He is using
They are cruising at a speed of thirty kilometers per hour. The reason why they use such a slow speed is because they want to see everything outside clearly. They are even used as bait. They hope that the people from the Thunder Gate can spot them and launch an attack.
, they will have a good harvest.
Their goal is huge. Such a thing has never appeared here before. Now everything here is very clear. This sound comes from that thing in the sky. Many people
I saw it clearly. Several observation posts around are now wondering what it is. The people here have been out for fifty years recently. There was absolutely no such thing outside fifty years ago. This thing is fifty years old.
For things that appeared during the year, no one thought that this thing was directed at them. They just felt that it was strange. What on earth was this thing for?
Several high-level officials of the Thunder Gate also saw this thing. The distance was a bit high. A ninth-level warrior could kill this thing with one full blow, but they didn’t know how deep this thing was. Is it a bit too reckless to start attacking now?
Well, the senior officials didn't know what to do at this time. Most of the people were waiting and watching. While they were watching, this airship flew past them. The speed of this thing was very fast. So
We passed the top of this mountain in a short time.
The airship did not discover anything below, because they did not see anything different at all. This place was the same as the places they had passed hundreds of miles away. Everything around here was the same. Here
Everything is the same thing. They all feel that it is impossible to find the Thunder Gate by observation. However, they are so tall that it is a bit difficult for people to attack them. Except for high-level warriors and magicians,
It's impossible for ordinary people to attack them.
The top executives of the Thunder Gate are not fools. When something like this appears, they immediately write a lot of letters to the guys outside, asking them to tell them what it is. But this coming and going will probably take a lot of time.
For a long time, these flying monsters are very fast, but they cannot fly for 24 hours, and their level is not very high.
The second airship also passed safely in this way. It will probably take a few months to wait for the people behind to come over. At least they will be safe within these few months, which is good for both parties.
It's safe, but as long as there is an encounter, both parties can...
Li never entered easily in the border area. At this time, Li felt that the threat from the Thunder Gate was different from others. If he went in like that, he might be the one who suffered the loss. From this feeling
The first time was with the Queen, and I didn’t expect it to happen again. This feeling is really not good. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is
