He stood up slowly, came to the door, and opened the door of the lord's small building. He saw that the sun was shining brightly outside, and the temperature began to rise significantly.

The solid ice on the ground and the snow in the corners began to slowly melt like ice cream.

According to the end announcement of the Winter Challenge, the problems left over from these challenge periods will disappear within two hours.

He tentatively took a step forward and found that the properties of the ice layers had changed. They were not cold or slippery at all, but were melting at a constant speed.

Now Zong Shen can choose to redeem points or go out safely.

Points redemption will last for 24 hours, and he now has sufficient resources and items on hand.

The need for points redemption is not as urgent as other lords.

So he decided to go to the north of the territory to meet up with Luna and the others.

Then go to the living area and give Mariel some adjusted development work.

By the way, he must gather some men. He wants to go north and into the mountains!

After making up his mind, Zong Shen turned around and gave instructions to the two sisters Madeleine and Marpel who were standing behind him.

"You guys should go to the living area now, Mariel should be there."

"Bring her this flag and tell her to hoist it as soon as possible."

"Just hang it close to the east."

Zong Shen took two steps back, and as he spoke, he took out [Bosbon's Magic Flag (Purple)] from his storage compartment and handed it to Madeline.

Madeline carried the [Scorpion Horn War Bow] behind her back, held the rolled-up flag in both hands, and nodded solemnly.

"I understand, sir. My sister and I will head to the living area right now."

Madeleine was the first to respond, and then Marpel also took a step forward and stretched out her hand to rest on the flag.

"We will convey your meaning word for word and hand this flag into the hands of Lord Mariel."

Zong Shen nodded calmly. According to the walking speed of the two sisters, it would take about twenty minutes to get there from here to the living area. If you run at full speed, you can save a few minutes.

But it doesn't matter, it's not something that's too urgent.

The purpose of hoisting Bosbon's magic flag is mainly to prepare for the arrival of refugees from Bosbon.

Based on the time previously mentioned by Baron Bezos, this group of refugees should arrive in the territory between today's evening and tomorrow morning.

The person responsible for the escort will be Bezos’s closest associates. Flying the flag in advance will help avoid misunderstandings.

The two sisters bowed and excused themselves, passing by Zong Shen and moving quickly toward the southeast of the territory.

Zong Shen watched the two sisters leave, then turned back and walked to the gate of the lord's small building.

"Rise Ulysses."

"If you can still breathe, take me to the north of the territory, about 4 to 5 kilometers away."

He leaned against the door and shouted in a slightly deep voice.

"As you command, my lord."

The dry and obscure voice of the aging Reese came from the hall.

As the blue-gray light shone, a withered vine-like arm rested on Zong Shen's forearm.

The next moment, the space changed, just like watching flowers on a horse, and they appeared five kilometers north of the territory.

Zong Shen raised his eyes and looked left and right, judging the position through the defense matrix in the territory.

The defense arrow towers in the matrix are more than ten meters or even twenty or thirty meters high. These defense matrices distributed in the territory basically become coordinate buildings for determining the location.

In addition, the same is true for those epic buildings and incomplete wonders that are hundreds of meters high.

"Continue, go to the northeast,"

Zong Shen scanned around and had a good idea of ​​where Luna and the others were currently.

The old woman Ruisi was also unambiguous. After squinting her eyes slightly to determine the spatial orientation, the next flash went straight to her destination.

When Zong Shen and the others arrived, more than twenty warriors had gathered here, plus Vereesa, Luna, and Doris were also present.

They had already carved out several gaps in the ice nearby.

These gaps are scattered and scattered within a kilometer.

Luna and the others are located in the middle of the distribution area of ​​the gap.

"Sir, you are here."

"Sir, we have removed all the snake eyes."

"Those venomous snake eyes are covered by ice for us, so we need to break the ice first before we can break them."

Luna, Veresa, and Doris bowed almost at the same time, reporting the situation word by word.

Surveillance witchcraft like this can be defeated by magic skills.

Therefore, the ones they transferred were basically mages, and the large army was still in the living area.

Zong Shen had a slight smile on his face, and after looking at the three women respectively, he turned his gaze to the north, and at the same time asked about the strategy module in his heart.

"Are there still Viper Eyes near the territory?"

"Did the goblins send a team to hide nearby?"

Zong Shen is about to go on an expedition, and now he must effectively counterattack the surveillance arranged by the goblins.

Otherwise, he would not be able to safely lead the team north into the mountains to find the griffon's nest.

(There is a Viper's Eye 6.9 kilometers away from your current location in the west of the territory, and a Viper's Eye 6.73 kilometers away from your current position. There is also a Viper's Eye 12.6 kilometers away from your current location in the southwest of the territory.

Originally there was a Goblin hero leading two teams of Goblin scouts wandering nearby, but after the Viper Eye here was destroyed, they were recalled by the Goblin King)

Zong Shen looked at Vereesa after reading the strategy tips.

"You all go to the living area and wait for me. Drive the loader mecha over there. It will be faster this way."

"Vereesa, stay."

He gave instructions quickly, and at the same time asked Vereesa to stay.

Although everyone was a little confused, they still obeyed.

Doris took out the loader mecha and began to recall the dispersed warriors. Luna rode the Sentinel Black Panther and looked at Zong Shen with a smile.

Rhys Ulysses also flashed and consciously ran behind the cargo hold of the loader mecha.

Vereesa stood there, holding the string of her war bow with her hands, her expression indifferent and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Only then did Zong Shen speak.

"Vereesa, you use the [Summon Horned Eagle] skill of the war bow, and we will use the Horned Eagle to destroy the remaining Eyes of the Serpent."

"There are still several viper eyes in the west and southwest of the territory. We must destroy them all."

"It's faster to ride a Hippogriff, and it doesn't cost as much magic as flashing."

"After dealing with these snake eyes, let's go directly to the living area."

What he said was true. The hippogryph was indeed a good short-distance transportation aerial vehicle, and it was more cost-effective than flash.

Moreover, in addition to being a violent warrior, Zong Shen is also a lightning mage.

The durability of those snake eyes is not high, and they can be easily destroyed with lightning arrows.

Therefore, it is indeed the most suitable choice for Vereesa to summon the Hippogriff and take him with her.

After listening to Zong Shen's words, Vereesa shrugged her shoulders slightly and turned the bow around her body.

"I understand sir"

"I'll summon the Hippogriff right now."

She took a few steps back to ensure that the position in front of her was enough to accommodate the hippogryph.

After all, the hippogriff is also an aerial beast as famous as the gryphon and dragon eagle.

Able to accommodate two people riding on it, it was once the most common aerial combat beast among the elves.

After activating the summoning skill, a temporary spatial singularity suddenly appeared, and a huge hippogriff jumped out with fluttering indigo wings.

When the wings are spread out, it actually feels like they are blocking out the sky and the sun. The powerful muscles under the wings are beating, causing the wings to flap slowly, floating two or three meters above the ground, stabilizing their body shape.

The strong wind from the wings blows towards the face, making people truly feel its power.

The hippogryph summoned by the war bow can only exist for 20 minutes, so you need to pay attention to its duration.

After the hippogryph stabilized its figure, Vereesa jumped up and reached out to grab its front paws.

Using this as a support point, he softly moved his waist upwards and climbed onto the hippogryph's back. He stretched out his hand to caress its neck covered with hard scales and feathers, and waved to Zong Shen.

"Sir, come up quickly."

Seeing this, Zong Shen also took a few steps and stepped up with his legs. After the end of winter, two footprints were left on the slightly melted ice.

His jumping ability is so powerful that he can even jump onto the back of the hippogriff, which is more than three meters above the ground, without a relay, and ride it steadily.

Zong Shen stretched out his hands and gently placed them on Veresa's slender waist.

The close contact between the two made Vereesa's body tremble slightly, but she quickly returned to normal.

This was the second time that she and Zong Shen had been flying eagles together. The awkward relationship, the close contact, and the effect of full loyalty made Vereesa's heart beat faster uncontrollably.
