Damn it, this boss really has no normal skills.

Unfortunately, no matter how dedicated one is, there is a limit, so Ji Ming's smile soon couldn't be suppressed.

Because this old man is still a dog that can't change its bad habits, and all he says is bullshit.

"I am ashamed to say that although I have only known the Chosen One for over a month, in my heart, I feel that the Chosen One has been my old friend for many years."

After saying this, he turned around and said something with a smile.

"Right?"

Ji Ming: Reward the Bull Demon!

"…Yeah, I think I am."

"You see, the Chosen One is a very wise gentleman..."

As a result, Lao Deng got the benefit but had no intention of stopping. He then gave a series of shameless compliments, as if everyone had a really good relationship.

To be honest, although Ji Ming really wanted to punch him, he could guess what the Sun King wanted to do from the silence.

Although theoretically, he should be considered a member of Eleanor's faction, Eleanor's special status meant she would definitely not be able to become king.

So when it comes to the throne, as the "chosen one from God", I am almost like a free person and can still be fought for.

and so……

Children, this is the best choice for you, fresh, juicy, fragrant and soft little ones.

Just now, I, your father, gave you a very high evaluation in public. Do you know what I mean?

And for fear that his silly children might not understand, the Sun King pulled Ji Ming by the hand and introduced him to all the heirs present one by one, as if he were his own son.

Of course, the focus is still on those who have successfully overcome the tribulation.

Although not every prince and princess will stay in the royal capital, in fact most of them go out to gain experience, or farm in their fiefdoms to improve their performance.

But the situation is changing drastically and the future is uncertain. As the one who is close to the water gets the moon first, four of them still attended the banquet tonight.

In addition to Fia herself and Prince Philip, who will definitely be there, there will be another prince and a princess.

"Mr. Chosen One, I am actually very interested in the Holy Light Doctrine. When you are free in the future, could you please explain it to me in detail?"

Prince Titta is obviously a martial arts enthusiast. His body is like an "iron tower" and his dress can hardly cover his muscles.

As a result, Ji Ming, who was not tall to begin with, could only look up at him, thinking to himself that with your honor, you don’t need anything else, you can be admitted on the spot just by walking into the camp of the Holy Light Knights. Do you still need me to teach you this?

But since the other person had spoken, he could only say that he would probably give another lecture on the Holy Mountain next, and if you are free you can come and listen for a while.

Princess Maren, who seemed very intellectual, was much more tactful in her words. She directly stated that she had audited Mr. Chosen's classes, and then she started praising him in the same way as her father.

In addition to this, he tried to get close to him, saying that he also went to St. Valentine's School of Magic, and was half-alumni of Mr. Chosen, and that they could sit together at alumni gatherings in the future.

It did sound pleasant, but Ji Ming's expression became more and more strange.

After all, given the diverse atmosphere at the Holy Academy, its alumni association... isn't it really going to be something they want to "do"?

What a contrast between domestic and foreign products, ha people, cut it off!

And he cut it right away. After exchanging a few pleasantries with everyone, Ji Ming fled the venue, which might start playing poker at any time, under the pretext that he had classes the next morning and had to go back to prepare materials tonight.

For Qixia City tonight, the announcement of the birth of a new candidate is already the biggest event, so as the mechanical moon gradually sets, the huge royal capital sinks into the silence of the night.

But tens of thousands of kilometers away, with heavy snow falling and biting cold winds, the ear-piercing sounds of fighting could still be heard.

This is the bitter cold land in the northern border of the Deep Forest Kingdom, where endless hills and boundless grasslands meet.

Even in the magical world, the stars and the earth's axis are tilted, so when the Glowing King's capital is gradually entering midsummer, this place has just entered winter.

It is precisely because of this that the Glowing Kingdom and the Wolf King's Court in the southeast are still seizing this precious opportunity to recover, farming extensively and preparing for war.

The Deep Forest Kingdom here has taken advantage of the winter window to start a passionate war with its good neighbor to the north, the Pemos Khanate.

In fact, strictly speaking, it is not uncommon for Shenlin and Beimos to go to war. In order to suppress each other, they have to fight at least one battle every year.

As for the reason why they can continue to release films sustainably, it is very simple, because their internal positioning of themselves conflicts with each other.

Needless to say, the Deep Forest Kingdom, as a country that was cultivated by the little lion as an alien world by the Han and Tang Dynasties, but died young and only had time to teach it "what is barbaric", has liked expansion since ancient times.

The reason for the fall of the Pemod Khanate is even simpler: poverty.

I swear to God, reality is not "Civilization 6", where we can use magical bonuses such as the Lavra Monastery, the Aurora Dance, and St. Basil's Cathedral to turn the frozen land into a paradise on earth with food, drink, productivity and gold coins.

As a bitterly cold place where the weather is only warm for a few days each year but can turn a tribe into an ice sculpture when it gets cold, this prairie that doesn't even deserve a name is too poor.

So much so that in the past hundreds of years, no, it can be traced back to the time when the Holy Tree Kingdom had not yet become a dilapidated house, there was no "civilization" to speak of here.

Only the orcs and humans who were exiled here, as well as the demi-humans who could only live in hiding, formed a mess of large and small tribes, attacking each other for their stomachs, fighting and plundering endlessly.

Originally, this grassland, which was more like a wasteland, would have remained abandoned as a place with "no news" and become the most insignificant backdrop outside the civilized world.

However, the widespread natural disaster five hundred years ago, while completely destroying the Holy Tree Kingdom and evolving into three human kingdoms, also allowed one place to reap the benefits of the version.

That’s right, it’s this nameless grassland.

Good news, good news, the summer that used to be hot for only a few days can now be hot for a month!!!

But don’t underestimate this short month. After all, when you are at the bottom, no matter which way you go, you are moving upward, and it is a tenfold improvement.

However, dividends are dividends, and the Warring States period belonging to the grassland people has not ended. It’s just that the number of tribes and the intensity of war have increased.

But the world's general trend is that after a long period of unity, there will be division, and after a long period of division, there will be unity. This grassland finally welcomed the man of destiny eighty years ago.

It was a lion named Shirideg, a powerful lion-man with great golden blood, possessing thunder and lightning, a true Lionheart King.

He led his tribe to form alliances and fight wars everywhere, forcing several large tribes that were originally hostile to each other to join forces to fight the enemy. He was as powerful as Emperor Na in the history of the Earth.

But he was better than Napoleon in some areas. At least he did not lose the most crucial battle, but instead accomplished a feat similar to that of Overlord defeating 400,000 Qin troops in Julu.

...By the way, the ancestor of a certain warhorse girl was also defeated in several battles centered on this, and had to flee into the deep forest in a panic.

After defeating this most terrifying wave of enemies, Chief Xilideg's road to unifying the grassland became smooth.

But his ambition obviously did not stop there. A month of summer was too short, and he felt that his people needed more land.

Moreover, Xilideg's ability was indeed worthy of his ambition, because the first thing he did was not to lead his troops south, but to give the grassland a name.

Perhaps because life was so miserable, in a grassland legend that appeared at some unknown time, people said that this grassland once had an owner.

Sometimes He is a young girl with skin as smooth as goat's milk, and sometimes He is a horse with muscles as hard as stone.

Sometimes it is wind, sometimes it is snow, and sometimes it is endless fertile pastures. He is an eagle soaring on the grassland, and His name is Galkuo.

[Don’t ask, this really doesn’t exist]

But it doesn’t matter whether He exists or not. What matters is that He did give faith and hope to the poor people on the grassland. This is a simple idea.

Therefore, Xilidege gave this name to the grassland, and also gave every child of the grassland the power to defend the grassland.

——Yes, he is cultivating identity.

He was indeed successful, otherwise even Christine, who had a grudge against him for genocide, would not have been willing to use the name "Garkuo Grassland".

And after establishing a common identity and narrative among the tribes, it was only natural for Shirideg to take the next step.

So more than forty years ago, he announced the establishment of the Pemos Khanate on the highest mountain on the grassland and proclaimed himself Khan.

Of course, like the former, both the name "Pemos" and the word "Khan" are found in legends.

"Peimos" is the name of a powerful tribe of gods in ancient times in grassland legends, while "Khan" is the name of the non-existent grassland leader in folk fantasy. "

That’s right, Xilideg completed his entire narrative in this way:

In the arms of the Mother Goddess and under the leadership of the common leader, we have established the legendary tribe of gods. This is the territory bestowed by God, and we are the choice of God!

Bro, nothing much to say, MAGA!

...No, it should be, MSGA!

Make steppe great again!

But since such a grand narrative has been put forward, what did this "young" Pemos Khan do?

The answer is that he built a stone wall that was 500 meters long and dozens of meters high in the Khan's court, and invited all the tribes on the grassland to come and carve their names.

And it doesn't matter whether you are a powerful golden lion man or an ignorant goblin, even if you are just a gerbil that can do nothing but jumping and digging holes.

As long as you can carve the words, you will become a member of the Khanate of Pemos the moment the engraving is completed.

——That’s right, let’s go MSGA together!

There was definitely no such detailed record in the classics of Sunshine City, so when Ji Ming accidentally saw the Secret History of Paramus in the library of the Magic Academy and came across this paragraph, he was stunned.

"Little boss, this can't be my 146th generation junior, right? This move is so awesome, it's like he's good at both civil and military affairs."

[I can guarantee that it is not the case. How could a normal person let the savior start the game on frozen soil?]

……

[Don't say I'm not a normal person! ]

However, because some grassland tribes fled to the deep forest, the people of the deep forest had become increasingly wary of the golden lion to their north.

Now this thing can actually make such a big noise, which directly stresses out the people in Shenlin.

As we all know, when a house cat is stressed, it will just hiss and scratch, but when a tiger is stressed, it will...

The first Northern Masters Challenge begins!

To be honest, this is not the first time that the people of the deep forest have fought with the people of the grassland. After all, they have an ancestor king who was born in China.

When the little lion discovered that the northernmost part of his territory was actually a grassland, the PTSD in his blood broke out on the spot, and he said bluntly that this child must not be kept, otherwise he would become a disaster in the future!

This was one of the reasons why he conferred most of his subordinates with military merits and titles in the north. Besides the fact that the land here was suitable for development, it was also because he wanted to prevent the grassland from moving southward.

However, his untimely death was a disaster. Without the resolute support of the monarch, the northern nobles simply lost their desire to seize this barren land.

They just deployed troops on the border, just like playing football, sometimes defending at home, sometimes attacking away, and exchanging views with the various grassland tribes at high intensity.

So when they took over those defeated tribes, although they knew that Xilideg was powerful, they did not expect him to be so powerful.

After all, the Deep Forest Army underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, so they ran directly into the encirclement of the grassland people and were dragged into the abyss of death by the terrible vortex of cavalry and archery.

The First World War shocked the government and the public.

The 23rd King Lionheart, who was already very old, quickly summoned his ministers to discuss the matter. The conclusion was that the enemy was not simple and they should investigate further and report back.

Unfortunately, reality is not an RTS game. You can't just press F2 and click on the base camp to immediately pull all the soldiers back.

Everyone has his own life and his own ideas, such as those border generals who feel deeply humiliated and can't wait to take revenge.

They launched the attack without authorization, regardless of the king's order, leading tens of thousands of elite cavalry in the snow and wind, intending to launch a surprise attack on the camp of King Beimos, which had moved further south because of the king's personal expedition.

however……

Bro, they thought they were Huo Qubing.

The hundreds of miles of raid brought not a surprise force but a pie in the sky. This move was so tempting that all the people on the grassland were satisfied with it.

Thus, the first Northern Masters Challenge ended with a great victory for the Pemos Khanate, and the corpses of the Deep Forest People were even piled up into a towering Jingguan like a city wall.

During World War II, the government and the people were silent.

This is definitely the greatest shame for Shenlin since its founding, and the ones they are fighting against are not the glory of fellow civilizations, but a bunch of damn savages!

As we all know, the loser will be punished, and a head big enough must be found to take the blame.

So who is the lucky person whose death will not destroy unity and who can take all the blame at once?

The orc lord who defected: "Brothers, why are you all looking at me?"

Yep, that’s Kristen’s full origin story.
