Chapter 787 Ice Lake National Policy (Updated with 700 monthly votes this month)
The ancestors of the snow elves who first migrated settled near Wannian Lake.
Wannian Lake is the largest and highest-grade resource point on the entire Ice Sculpture Island, no one!
The combination of the extremely rich and unique ice element and the law of time brought by the dragon corpse of the Ten Thousand Years Dragon jointly creates this unique natural wonder.
Priests worship here, build temples, and preach doctrines.
Fighters hunt and breed here, and the flesh and blood of ice and snow monsters are excellent tonics for snow elf fighters.
The mages set up alchemy rooms and mage towers here to absorb the abundant natural elements here and convert them into mana. They studied the unique ecology here, acquired knowledge, transformed the rich resources here, and built their homes.
Even before the Ice Sculpture Kingdom was founded, a large number of mages had arranged their arrangements here.
There are too many battles and robberies around the Ten Thousand Years Ice Lake, and there are too many conspiracies and calculations. Countless people have shed blood, shed tears, and even dedicated their lives for this.
Eventually, the barbarians retreated and the snow elves became the masters here.
The country was founded.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Ice Sculpture Kingdom, the royal family balanced all parties and announced the policy of jointly developing the Wannian Ice Lake.
This is a national policy.
The Ice Sculpture Kingdom has developed to the point where it is today, and the influence of this national policy is very important. It is even an exaggeration to say that without this national policy, there would be no Ice Sculpture Kingdom now.
National policy stipulates that the Ten Thousand Years Glacier Lake is not a property of the royal family, nor will it be exclusively owned by a powerful family in the future.
The Ten Thousand Years Glacier Lake belongs to everyone.
Qualifications are issued every year to allow mages, fighters and priests to settle in the ice lake.
The most numerous ones are of course mages.
A conservative estimate is that there are more than 300 new alchemy rooms opened in the ice lake every year.
Since the development of the Ice Sculpture Kingdom, the number of alchemy rooms accumulated has been extremely large. The royal family cannot even count them clearly. On the one hand, there are so many monsters in the Wannian Lake that it is difficult to get an overview. On the other hand, there were a large number of facilities before the founding of the country.
The unique ice carving technology of the Ice Sculpture Kingdom is the result of research and development in these alchemy rooms.
Almost every year, in these alchemy rooms and mage towers, new and eye-catching alchemy techniques are demonstrated, or innovations are born from scratch.
These achievements continue to promote the achievements of the Ice Sculpture Kingdom in the field of alchemy.
So much so that today, in the frost area of the alchemy field, the Ice Sculpture Kingdom is unique and outshines the huge Shengming Empire.
"Our Chamber of Commerce opened a head office in the Royal Capital a long time ago. When it was strong, we had branches in several major cities in the Ice Sculpture Kingdom."
"After the old president was killed by the empire's conspiracy, the Alchemy Guild and other forces in the Ice Sculpture Kingdom also took the opportunity to attack and took away the market share that our chamber of commerce has worked hard to gain here."
"Under the attack from both inside and outside, we are unable to continue operating. Only the main store in Wangdu is left to survive."
"The alchemy room here is the legacy of the Chamber of Commerce. To be honest, it is not difficult to get a license to open an ice lake alchemy room here."
Elder Yuan Ci explained while driving the submarine and slowly leaned against a huge ice block.
The ice cube has the combined volume of at least three blue whales.
As you get closer, a corner of the ice cube undergoes mechanical deformation, revealing a passage.
Elder Yuan Ci drove the submarine into the passage, entered a short underwater metal tunnel, and entered the landing cabin.
The exit is closed, the cabin is drained, and breathable air is released.
Then, the top cover of the submarine opened, and Elder Yuan Ci and Zidi both walked out.
There was a metal passageway as the two entered. Elder Yuan Ci walked in front and introduced: "This is the skating laboratory built by the Chamber of Commerce."
"It is disguised on the outside and looks like a giant piece of ice. In fact, it is a gold-level magic ship."
"Unlike normal mana ships, it has no power source of its own. Instead, it relies on the rich external ice elements and element density flow technology to provide power to the mana ship."
"Because of this, it is so naturally camouflaged that no one will notice it even if it is wandering in an icy lake."
"Imperial secret agents never discovered this place."
"The place where you were trapped just now is the alchemy room of the imperial spy. The alchemy room is fixed and stationed on top of the thousand-year-old ice layer."
Zidi nodded slightly: "So, we are now between the thousand-year ice layer and the century-old ice layer."
Clang!
As soon as she finished speaking, two metal fences suddenly fell down, blocking her front and back. Together with the metal cave walls on both sides, they formed a prison.
Zidi was slightly shocked, but quickly relaxed.
Elder Yuanci's reaction was one of her expectations.
Zidi was not too nervous.
If the other party wanted her to die, he would not have risked his life to save her.
Now that he has rescued her, he has brought her here again, which shows his sincerity.
Of course, there may also be a third party with ulterior motives.
But it doesn't matter.
Bringing Zidi over here will cost you a lot of trouble, but you will definitely have a plan.
Zidi is still safe now, which is much better than before when her life and death were hanging by a thread.
Elder Yuan Ci said: "I'm sorry, I can't really trust you yet. Even though you were attacked."
Zidi nodded and said calmly: "I can understand."
Elder Yuan Ci narrowed his eyes: "I currently prefer that your identity is positive. Next, please try your best to prove yourself. I would like to kindly remind you that the following conversation is very important and will determine whether you live or die."
Zidi shrugged: "Actually, I also need to verify your identity. Just use that method, the effect will be most immediate."
Although he didn't say it clearly, Elder Yuanci raised his eyebrows and looked at Zidi again: "Can you also make a zero-level Wisteria Secret Order?"
Zi Di nodded: "Of course."
After a while, Elder Yuanci took the alchemy materials and delivered them to Zidi through the narrow cracks in the metal fence.
Zidi made the Wisteria Secret Order in front of him.
The organizational structure of the Wisteria Chamber of Commerce is divided into ten levels, namely: level 10 president, level 9 vice president, level 8 elder, level 7 elder... level 3 resident...
There is no zero order on the surface at all.
But in fact, there is a zero-level wisteria secret order. To refine this secret order, the maker needs to sign a special wisteria secret agreement in advance and never break the agreement.
Elder Yuanci saw with his own eyes that Zidi had made a zero-level Wisteria secret order in front of him, and his expression softened greatly.
"Those who can sign the Wisteria Secret Pact must be loyal to the president. I have never met you, and I have never heard of you." Elder Yuan Ci marveled.
Zidi shrugged slightly: "After all, I am a necromancer."
Elder Yuanci nodded slightly, which was regarded as recognizing Zidi's excuse.
"It's my turn." After Elder Yuanci said this, he personally made a zero-level Wisteria Secret Pact in front of Zidi.
The secrets of the two came into contact with each other, and both of them emitted a purple magical light.
Glory was originally two groups, but they soon merged into one. Divine magic and alchemy technology were involved, which proved to a large extent that the Wisteria Secret Order of both parties was genuine.
Seeing this, Elder Yuan Ci breathed a sigh of relief and beamed with joy.
He laughed loudly, waved his hand, and raised the metal fence again, allowing Zidi to be free again: "Hahaha, it seems that I made the right bet this time, and I didn't save the wrong person!"
"Let me tell you, I've never seen those dogs so anxious or so violent."
Zidi looked at Elder Yuanci, her eyes became much softer, and her previous vigilance was reduced by most.
Zidi walked up to Elder Yuanci and took the initiative to introduce: "I, Guiteng, have been in single-line contact with the old president and am not responsible for daily affairs."
"In normal times, practicing with the help of undead resources provided by the Chamber of Commerce is a power secretly cultivated by the old president."
"This time I came to the sea to find the missing Miss Zidi."
"Little Zidi..." Elder Yuanci nodded and sighed, "I know that she has become the new president of the Chamber of Commerce and disappeared at sea a few months ago."
"I also tried to send people to investigate for more than a month, but after no results were obtained, I decisively stopped."
"I tend to believe that this is a deliberate arrangement by the enemy to lure out the remnants of the Wisteria Chamber of Commerce like us."
"Look, Master Gui Teng, you just got this news and came to the sea, and you were ambushed by the empire's secret agents, and you almost died."
Zidi was silent. Thoughts were swirling in her mind. After thinking for a while, she said: "In fact, after my investigation, Miss Zidi is indeed missing."
"Also missing at the same time as her was Zhen Jin, the next generation head of the Bai Zhen family."
"And Fat Tongue, the eighth-level veteran of the Ziteng Chamber of Commerce."
Elder Yuan Ci shook his head: "Although the Baizhen family was once a great nobleman in the empire, it has now declined."
"The current patriarch is known as the 'Iron Knees' and the 'One Who Doesn't Kneel', but now he is just a gold-level cultivation, which can be regarded as the last glory and face of the Baizhen family."
"Although the next generation patriarch Zhen Jin became a Templar of the Great Emperor, he could not conceal his major flaws of lack of ability and cowardly character."
"The future of such a family is bleak. Xiao Zidi's marriage to her is because she is ill and seeks medical treatment."
"Zhenjin cannot be her talisman. Even this shipwreck may be caused by a powerful force in the empire that killed the Baizhen family. And little Zidi may be innocently affected."
Speaking of this, Elder Yuanci sighed deeply: "Xiao Zidi fell into the trap."
"She took the initiative to take over the position of the old president and became the new president of the Chamber of Commerce. This is actually the result of the enemy's deliberate indulgence."
"They just want to use Ziti, follow the clues, find the remaining power of us, and then find what they want most - the secret treasure of Wisteria!"
Zidi's heart was shaken secretly.
Regarding the fact that she fell into the trap, she had already guessed it before, and there were not many surprises.
Just hearing the name Wisteria Secrets again made her heart shake.
The first time she heard about the secret of Wisteria was from Qing Xin. Afterwards, she found Fat Tongue to verify it, and Fat Tongue told her: He only heard about it and didn't know the details.
