The Free City's situation wasn't optimistic. Ice and snow were still spreading. If it wasn't stopped in time, the Free City would become a kingdom of ice and snow sooner or later.
Dragon's Throat City had gathered almost all of the Free City's 6th rank and above fighting forces. It was the first time in the history of the Free City that hundreds of Magisters and Battle Kings were holding a meeting.
"Dean Danilo, you are the only one who has entered the first region and fought with the Frost Wyrm. Please explain the current situation."
The one who spoke was the armored Drod Dragon's Throat. As the city lord of Dragon's Throat City, the general of the Dragon's Throat Kingdom, and the only 8th rank warrior, he was the most qualified to preside over this meeting.
Danilo's face was pale, completely different from the state he had during the school competition. He looked like a sickly old man.
"He's definitely not an ordinary Frost Wyrm."
Danilo's words caused a huge commotion. The name of the Frost Wyrm, a magical beast beyond 9th rank, was already scary enough. However, the guy who created this crisis didn't seem to be just that.
"Cough, cough." Danilo opened his palm, and there was a strange snowflake symbol on it.
"His power is pure and extreme frost, but due to some reason, he can't use his full strength. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to see me."
Danilo's words caused everyone in the meeting room to panic. For a moment, there was a lot of discussion. What was the use of leaving this guy to them if even the 8th rank mage Danilo couldn't deal with him?
"I recognize this symbol!"
Suddenly, a bespectacled mage stood up and frowned. He seemed to be thinking about something.
"We used the lives of ten 9th rank warriors to seal him, freeing the world from the haze of eternal winter. However, no matter what method we used, we couldn't completely kill him. His soul belongs to the Demonic Realm. Now … his companions have come to find him."
After this mage finished speaking, someone also stood up with his eyes wide open. With a look of disbelief, he said in a trembling voice, "King … King of Eternal Winter, Alex Frost!"
"One of the legendary seven kings of the Demonic Realm?"
"The Dark Year is real?"
"This is the king of the Devil World!"
Drode knocked on the table, and the meeting room instantly quietened down. This courageous general rubbed his chin, looked at Trades, and asked, "If I remember correctly, the Black Flame Beast crisis in the City of the Night was also caused by one of the Seven Kings."
"King of Puppets, Charlotte Benjamin."
Traddles no longer had his usual sloppy appearance. Wearing a white magic robe, he finally had the aura of an eighth-tier magician.
"Then can I guess that these seven fellows aren't actually that strong right now, so they need to borrow the power of magical beasts that surpass the ninth rank?"
Derode's words enlightened everyone, and Trades nodded. "That should be the case. Charlotte has already lost her Life Puppet at the Linna Snow Mountain. She definitely won't appear anytime soon. After all, if she dies again, she'll be done for."
However, Danilo shook his head and said, "It's not that simple this time. Last time, you dealt with the Black Flame Beast Prison Killer first. That's why the subsequent battles were so easy."
"Yeah, this time it's the King of Eternal Winter and the Frost Wyrm!"
"A magical beast that surpasses the ninth rank and the king of the Demon Realm ….. That's too scary."
"Can we only watch as the Free Kingdom falls into eternal winter?"
"Why don't we ask the Kingdom of Order and Chaos for help?"
Once this suggestion was made, the meeting room fell into a strange silence. The person who made this suggestion saw that something was wrong, and took the initiative to hide.
"Didn't the City of the Night solve the magical beast crisis that surpasses the ninth rank?
It's said that it was done by the Hyena Blade Association. "
Everyone turned to look at the female lizardman with her legs crossed, but the lizardman only rolled her eyes and said nonchalantly, "What does that have to do with me? To be honest, we don't care what happens to the Free Kingdom. Don't forget, the Confederation is the Hyena Blade Association's headquarters."
"President Giselle, you can't say that.
Are you really willing to give up the benefits of the Free Kingdom? "
"Hyrablade ….. What a bunch of cold-blooded fellows."
Drodd smiled as he looked at Giselle. Although this lizardwoman was only a seventh rank warrior, he still had to give her a certain amount of respect because Giselle didn't represent just herself.
"President Giselle, let's talk nicely. The Free Kingdom is indeed in danger. According to the report of the Speechless, the Northern Tulakara people are also planning a rebellion. Both internal and external problems are coming together."
Drodd continued, "The City of the Night's crisis should have been solved by your family's Lincoln Hyena Blade, right?
Where is he?
Why didn't he attend the meeting? "
"Ask Traddles. He's from the City of the Night." Giselle shrugged, indicating that she didn't know.
Traddles' expression was indifferent. "He went to the Free Kingdom first. Don't worry about him. Let's discuss the battle plan."
Drodd was silent for a moment before saying, "Okay. According to Dean Danilo's report, the Free Kingdom is now divided into three regions. Each region has a region guard. The Dragon's Throat army will be cleaning up the third region to prevent the ice from spreading."
The people gathered in the meeting room were divided into three groups according to their strength. The second and third groups were responsible for finding and eliminating the second and third region guards. The first group's mission was to clean up the first region's magic beasts.
According to Danilo's conjecture, a large part of Eternal Winter King Alex's power came from the Free Kingdom's ice and snow. This plan could greatly weaken his strength. The three eighth rank combatants only needed to wait for the three groups to complete their mission before they could attack Alex!
… …
"Ahhh!"
Blackie shivered in the cold wind. "I must have been crazy to agree to come to this godforsaken place with you."
Lincoln threw a cotton-padded coat to Blackie and said, "I told you to wear this."
"Scram, scram, scram, scram, scram, take this thing away!
It's so ugly. It doesn't suit my temperament at all! "Blackie would rather die than submit.
Lincoln helplessly put away the cotton-padded coat. Looking at the street covered in ice, he couldn't help but sigh. "Blackie, you're also a super ninth rank magic beast. Look at your old cousin Frost Wyrm. It's a world of ice and snow. What about you?
All you think about is cheating me of my magic core. "
"You still know that I'm a super ninth rank magic beast?
Have you given me the most basic respect? "
Blackie said angrily. "Damn it. It's all that bastard Kyle's fault. If it weren't for him, I would have crushed this ice crawler in minutes. Do you believe it?"
Relying on the temptation of a high-level magic core, Lincoln had already learned from Blackie that the culprit who made him carry his vanity was Kyle. Moreover, this shameless big black dog in front of him was the Black Flame Beast that was suppressed under the Night City College.
In order to maintain his enigmatic image, Lincoln had sacrificed too much. Hearing Blackie's ridicule, he also cursed fiercely.
"Bastard Kyle!"
