"Those guys instead reduced the amount of fire element responsible for controlling the temperature in the city. The temperature in the city now...is almost the same as the coldest temperature in the Central Continent in winter." Selina gritted her teeth, "I searched in the house for a long time before finally finding it. Find where those fire elementals go."

"They were all given to the Great Elder to help him cultivate and break through to the realm - if he doesn't break through early, he won't break through later. He insists on picking the cold wave when it comes, and even greedy the fire element we originally reserved for winter. He is crazy. !" Selena couldn't help but cursed, "Oh, the great elder is a younger brother of my father, he can barely be considered my uncle."

breakthrough? Lin Nai frowned: "What level is that Great Elder?"

"High-level, he wants to break through to a super-level mage." Selina's voice was muffled.

"Why not just expose him? Corruption in this kind of thing should be a very serious matter, right?"

"He is a fire mage. After the connection between the Central Continent and the Western Continent was cut off, several fire mages who were supposed to be dispatched did not come. We are under great pressure to resist the cold wave. If he can really break through, then the cold wave will 'The pressure will be much less." Selina smiled bitterly, "But the amount of elements required to break through to the super level at a high level is too large, not to mention that he is only at level five, and he has to go beyond one level to directly enter the seven-level super level. , only more will be consumed.”

"The fire elements that maintain the barrier cannot be moved, and only those that control the temperature in the city can be moved. If this consumption continues, the temperature in the city can only drop again and again. By that time, not to mention the citizens living in sheds, only those who live in sheds will be affected. I'm afraid that something will happen to the families with slightly poorer heating facilities in the city." Selina leaned against the window and looked through the window lattice to the town not far away. At this time, it was already snowing in Sony City, which had never happened in previous years. It won't happen.

The nearby eaves and streets have been covered in white. The Lord's Mansion is in the center of the city. Selina can't see the shanty towns near the city gate, but she can almost guess that if the snow continues, there will be more shanty towns tomorrow. A few people who sleep in the cold winter forever.

"We have reserved enough fire elements, and the spare elements are always full, just so that one day, if the Central Continent cannot provide support, we can survive on our own." Selina sighed, "Now the Great Elder is so Do, although he can indeed withstand the cold wave better after breaking through, but..."

But what about the people who froze to death on the streets because of this move?

They didn't have to freeze to death. As long as they huddled together in the shed and burned firewood as in previous years, the temperature in the city could be maintained at an ordinary spring and autumn temperature. Although it was difficult, it was still manageable.

"It's useless even if I expose all this. It's useless even if people in the city freeze to death or the temperature is too low to bear and trigger riots. As long as the great elder finally appears as a super mage and takes the lead in resisting the cold wave, then everyone will They will all forgive him."

The foundation of the west branch of the Cumberland family's control of Sony City is to resist the cold wave. The elder is so eager to break through, even at the expense of some of the people in the territory, probably just to establish his authority so that she can successfully inherit the position of lord after her father's death. .

Lin Nai patiently listened to Selena's words. After understanding the situation, he said politely: "Selena, do you feel that there is something wrong with your logic?"

Ok?

Linnai continued: "You need enough fire elements to resist the cold wave, because when the cold wave comes, the ice element and wind element will expel all other elements, so you can only use the stored ones, right?"

"Then the fire element you can use should be fixed. In that case, what will your great elder do after he breaks through?" Lin Nai felt that there was nothing wrong with his idea. "Breakthrough will consume a lot of fire elements. At this time, there is an extra super What's the use of a super-level mage? How can you cast spells without elements? If the fire element is not enough, no matter how many fire mages there are, it won't work."

Selena was stunned for a long time before hesitatingly said: "But, after breaking through to the super level, won't those elements return?"

"Who told you?" Lin Nai almost laughed angrily, "When you broke through the realm, did all the elements you absorbed escape from your body?"

"You should know how many fire elements are left in your city now. Think about it for yourself, after he breaks through, what else can the remaining fire elements do?"

Selena subconsciously calculated in her mind that if the elements were consumed directly without returning them at all...

After a long while, Linnai heard Selena's voice: "Only the amount of elements left to maintain the barrier..."

Even more than that, because if you want to survive the winter safely, you still need the most important step, which is to get rid of the cold.

The races of the entire western continent condensed the remaining fire elements into shape in one go, and drove out the raging ice and wind elements. Only then could the cold winter end.

Sony City is the only human settlement in the Western Continent, and it is also an important part of resisting the cold wave. Once the fire element of Sony City is missing...

Selena couldn't even think about it.

"But, what are the benefits of doing this?" Selena couldn't figure it out, always feeling that something was missing.

In her eyes, the Great Elder wanted to break through even at the expense of some of the lives of his people in order to inherit the position of lord. According to Linnai, after all this trouble, Sony City, which has lost most of its fire element storage, will definitely be gone. What's even more frightening is that if other ethnic groups do not reserve enough fire elements, this cold wave will most likely not be able to recede. Devour the entire Western Continent.

This crime is very terrifying. Let alone the position of lord, I am afraid that he will be wanted and hunted by all the forces in the mainland, and will be infamy for thousands of years.

"Good question, I want to know too." Lin Nai was about to continue speaking, but suddenly felt something was wrong with the voice on the other side, "Where are you?"

"I'm in my own room." Selina replied subconsciously. The night was very quiet, and she could clearly hear the faint sound from Linnai's side opposite, which seemed to be the sound of turning the pages of a book.

"Can you leave your room?" Lin Nai looked at the red-marked task box that suddenly popped up in front of him. The words "Advise Selina to go to the lord's room" were marked in red and flashed crazily. He looked very anxious. "To your father?"

What to do there? Selena felt puzzled, but she had an inexplicable trust in Linnai, so she nodded. She put the little flower used for communication in her storage space and opened the door.

"Miss, where do you want to go?" Outside the door, the mage responsible for guarding her smiled and saluted her.

Selina walked past him: "Go visit my father."

He didn't stop her. In the minds of those people, her father was already a dead man.

The temperature in the Lord's Mansion was very comfortable. Selena stepped on the velvet carpet and moved forward, but the scene of snow and ice outside the window could not help but appear in her mind. Suddenly, she felt a strong sense of unreality.
