The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 60: Frost bite disaster

Rebels...

Annan vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a thing.

A spell that can replace the necessity of the Winter clan... This is indeed very fatal.

Even if this curse was later destroyed, the concept that "the Winter clan is not completely necessary" has already taken root in people's hearts.

Grand Duke Ivan said slowly:

"When we realized that Vladimir might have betrayed Winter, he had already tampered with the memory of one-third of the military frost beasts, changing the highest authority from me to 'him'.

“Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and Bella surrendered and claimed to be guilty and meritorious... We used her information to clean up the Hand of Winter.

"A total of thirty-one betrayers have been found, seventeen of whom have fled. Although the number is not large, they have quietly stolen a lot of supplies relying on the authority of the Hand of Winter."

In other words, they had planned this for a long time.

Under his father’s introduction, Annan slowly figured out what happened six years ago:

After Fu Fu collected the bet, he didn’t know what price Vladimir paid, or he had already colluded with Fu Fu - he escaped from the Principality of Winter and went underground with Fu Fu’s power.

The Principality of Winter immediately took control of all Vladimir's students.

But even so, there are still fish that slip through the net in the end...

That is Vladimir’s disciple Solonik who has not passed the wolf kiss ceremony and has long since left Frost Whisper.

Annan still remembers this name.

In the nightmare of Wolf Kiss, he had seen this person...

Solonik is a shy young man with light brown hair, fair skin and freckles on his face. The cheeks are very thin, and even the cheeks are sunken inwards.

His parents were both murderers, so no one was willing to teach him swordsmanship. Finally Vladimir picked him up, raised him and led him to the path of transcendence.

"——The teacher is my benefactor! For the sake of the teacher, I will even risk my life!"

Solonik’s sonorous and powerful fanatical words seemed to still linger in Annan’s ears.

“Relying on Vladimir’s authority, Solonik organized a rebel army called the ‘Icebreaker Army’ with the defecting Hands of Winter.

"They claim... we, the Winter Clan, have no human emotions, so the laws are strict, inhumane, and we always sacrifice others but never ourselves, which is unconvincing to the public.

"——Since the fundamental reason why the Winter clan serves as the Grand Duke is that the blood of Winter can freely control the frost beasts, and the frost beasts are a military force that is difficult to resist. Then as long as other means are used to control the frost beasts, A person who becomes a Grand Duke does not have to be a member of the Winter clan."

When Ivan said this, he sneered: "The winter is still too long.

“The younger generation, who were born in winter and grew up in winter, have forgotten their old grandmothers.”

"What happens next?"

"After that, they made a lot of local promises and got the support of some local nobles."

But it just so happens that Ivan Winter is the most recognized and capable Grand Duke in the past two hundred years. His charisma made most people unwilling to participate in the rebellion.

Sacrifice is real.

As a result, there are not many public opponents of the rebels.

"More people are waiting and watching. They hope that through the rebels, we can make "fewer and lighter sacrifices."

Everyone hopes that he is not the victim.

It makes sense.

After that, there was a three-year rebellion.

The spell that can control frost beasts allows the Icebreaker Army to recruit soldiers outside the small barrier at almost no cost... It can also collect a large number of cubs through the underground world and release them into the blizzard to artificially create frost beasts. .

Except for the first legion that trained with the frost beasts, ordinary soldiers could not resist the attack of the frost beast swarm.

Although the number of rebels is not large, they only launch frost beasts from a distance to attack towns that do not support them, mainly to annihilate the troops who come to support them. Real rebels almost never move and are therefore difficult to deal with.

Only the Winter Clan, the Hand of Winter, the Priests of the Grandmother, and the First Legion with Frost Beast mounts can effectively fight against the Frost Beast.

"At the beginning, their strategy was successful... As the number of towns they attacked increased, because they could not wait for reinforcements or the reinforcements could not resist the frost beasts, the number of people who were dissatisfied with us gradually increased. ”

Grand Duke Ivan said slowly: "At this time, your brother, 'Iron-Blooded' Dmitri... proposed a strategy based on Bella's suggestion.

“After all, the Icebreaker Army has more frost beasts but fewer people. They are mindlessly hoarding the number of frost beasts, but our frost beasts have soldiers from the First Legion and criminals to feed them, but they don’t have enough people.

"Then the number of army attacks can be further reduced. Then more and more frost beasts gradually become out of control because of no soldiers killed and lack of food... After the hungry frost beasts finally massacred the first town After coming to get food, the situation immediately reversed.

"The Icebreaker Army almost immediately lost the support of all edge towns and local nobles - controlled frost beasts are just weapons, but out-of-control frost beasts are natural disasters. Natural disasters can only be managed by the power of the principality... From this point of view, Bella's plan was immediately effective.

"But the large number of hungry frost beasts could not be controlled. The greedy predation caused more frost beasts to lose their food source and go crazy. Finally, like an avalanche, a natural disaster called the 'Frost Bite Disaster' was formed."

The natural disasters overshadowed the rebellion.

At this time, Bella, who had made up for her mistake, revealed her special power - werewolves will not be attacked by frost beasts first, so werewolves are very efficient in hunting crazy frost beasts... As long as ordinary people are used as bait, crazy people will The frost beast will turn a blind eye to the werewolf's attack.

So the Hand of Winter tried to recruit a group of werewolves and trained them into "Windrunners" to go to various places to kill and eliminate excess crazy frost beasts.

——The effect is actually good.

So in order to fight against the frostbite disaster, the Principality of Winter absorbed more werewolves into the army and the Hand of Winter. At this time, the Icebreaker Army has been gradually forgotten by people... They can only control ordinary frost beasts, and the newly born frost beasts will quickly go crazy.

Finally, Maria Winter successfully inherited the power of the Storm Daughter.

She used the power of the Storm Tower to detect the entire winter, and used the power of the Great Barrier to kill frost beasts on a large scale. The natural disaster finally ended.

And by the way, they found the icebreaker army and completed the counterinsurgency.

“However, Solonik, the leader, is missing.

"After Maria increased the detection intensity and surveillance scope, although Solonik was not found, she unexpectedly discovered that...Bella and some of the werewolves recruited into the Hand of Winter were still secretly transmitting information to the outside world. Message.

“The person receiving the news this time is no longer Vladimir, who escaped from the Principality of Winter and entered the underground world.

"But a careerist named [Professor Wolf] Frederick."

In other words, she betrayed the Principality of Winter for the second time.

If nothing unexpected... the strategy she gave ~IndoMTL.com~ was the strategy given by "Professor Wolf" to improve the status of werewolves.

In other words, it may also be their conspiracy to destroy the frost bite disaster that is at least five times more than that of the Icebreaker Army.

"...This is the cause of the 'Second Purge'. All werewolves were removed from the Hand of Winter and executed secretly."

After Ivan finished speaking, he looked at Annan and said calmly: "Bella had been running away for several years and was found and killed by Maria two months ago.

"But Annan, you have to know...this matter is not over yet."

Vladimir who went underground, Solonik who disappeared inexplicably, and Professor Wolf who didn’t know what to do...

Annan nodded slowly.

"I understand."

Is that why Dmitri completely lost trust in her and even werewolves...

——I understand.
