Lord of the North

Chapter 12: Icefield Expedition

The busy days passed quickly, and after half a month passed in a blink of an eye, Lancelot has been able to master most of the armed forces in Iron Tooth Town, and with his tough methods and unparalleled personality charm, he was convinced in a short time. The city guard!

   And the town chosen by the townspeople has also been determined. It is an old man in his sixties named Dia with gray hair and wise eyes!

   Jason heard that he used to be the mayor of Iron Tooth and served for more than 20 years! It's just that Oki dismissed him after he came! So this election was passed almost unanimously!

  Everything seems to be on the right track, and the townspeople are also starting to cultivate. The climate in the Northland is harsh, and the winter time is close to half of the year! So the townspeople need to hurry up and cultivate in the rest of the time!

   Only rye with strong adaptability but average yield can be cultivated here!

   Jason was sitting in the Lord's Hall looking at the system interface with a sad face, his face full of entanglement.

  Host: Jason Lopez

   Status: Marquis of Lopez, Lord of Ironfang

  Points: 100

   Evaluation: You have truly owned a territory, although it is very poor! But your people still have doubts about you, and there are still discordant voices in the territory! Work hard, this system does not want to be buried with you!

   Main mission: Your back is against the vast Northland Ice Sheet, where the climate is harsh and the crisis is full of dangers. No one has ever wanted to explore it! This is a virgin land! The opportunity is here, come on, boy!

   Mission requirements: Explore the Northland Ice Field! At least find a resource that can trade with the outside world!

   Mission time: one year;

  Task rewards: one advanced lottery, 50 points, and one ordinary gift pack!

   Failure penalty: 100 points deducted!

   Side mission: None.

   Jason wants to scold the system now, he only has one hundred points, and the next main mission's failure penalty needs one hundred. This is the rhythm of not planning to let himself draw a lottery!

   "When did this side mission emerge?" Jason asked with a dark face. He remembered that there was no such one when he looked at the system last time!

"In view of the lack of host points source, to prevent you from premature death due to insufficient points, this system has decided to launch a side mission! The rewards are generous, but there is no free lunch in the world, so the failure penalty is relatively serious!" The system is for you. Good rhetoric!

   "Before you said there are other points source channels, what is that?" Jason remembered the previous system, how is this different from game recharge?

   "Please explore by yourself, this system does not encourage unearned points recharge!" The system is serious.

   Can you get something for nothing? Jason felt like it was tempting himself to find that channel as soon as possible!

   "One more question, what will happen if the points are negative?" This is something that Jason has always been curious about. Will it kill something?

   "There are no serious consequences, at most it is a vegetative person!" The system seems to have seen through Jason's thoughts and is holding back bad ways!

   "Okay, no problem, you can shut up!" He said with a black face, this system is so annoying! Jason felt that the current system did not match its icy tone. After completing the first task, the system seemed to have emotions!

   because it is always teasing itself!

   "Quick, go tell Mayor Dia to come over!" Rubbing his forehead, Jason ordered the guards outside.

  Quick was one of Barry's team at the time. Because Uncle Barry was temporarily appointed as the chief guard, and because Quik knew better about words, he was responsible for Jason's daily transmission of orders, and he became his herald.

   "Yes, my lord!" He responded and left quickly.

After half a month of development, the fox girl Lorna is mainly responsible for Alexis’s daily life. Thanks to Jason’s love, Alexis has become the little princess in the castle and was taken over by Lancelot. student!

   In addition, Jason also found a few chefs to take charge of the food for the people, and sixteen guards such as Barry, to form all the members of the current castle!

  The biggest problem facing Jason Territory at present is nothing more than population, food and economy! He has no good way to deal with food problems, and Northland is not suitable for planting at all! So except for a small portion of the rye grown by the people themselves, the others need to be purchased from other territories! This also means that I will be controlled by others!

   So I must find other resources in this northern land, and have enough chips to trade with other territories! Moreover, new resources can directly affect the territorial economy!

   As for population, Jason has a headache! No one wants to give up their homeland and go to the desolate Northland to suffer! Unless there is war in other places, or the Northland has something to attract them!

   Thinking of this, Jason fell silent, thinking is easier than doing it! Maybe that would be a way...

   "My lord, Mayor Dia is here!" While he was still immersed in thinking, Quik's voice pulled him back to reality.

   "Huh?" Jason patted his forehead, and secretly said that he was thinking too much. It is better to discuss this kind of thing with the old man outside!

   "Please come in!"

"I have seen Lord Lord!" Father Dia is more than sixty years old, and years have left countless marks on his face, but his eyes are still sharp and his thinking is still quick. If he is not just a civilian, Sir Oki can't do anything wrong in Iron Tooth!

   "Mayor Dia, I invited you to discuss a few things with you!" Jason considered it for a moment, said, and motioned to him to sit opposite to him.

   "I want to ask you to make an idea for me!"

   "Please tell me!" Old Dia sat on the stool respectfully.

"The iron tooth collar is really barren, but behind us is the vast Northland ice sheet, where there are countless mineral resources waiting for us to discover! I want to set up an expedition team and ask them to explore this land!" Jason In a low tone, exploring the unknown represents an inevitable sacrifice!

   "I agree, my lord!" Father Dia thought about it after Jason finished speaking, and immediately agreed.

   "I had this idea more than ten years ago, but we didn't have the permission from the lord and the kingdom. Even if we discover minerals, we can't mine it, so it's all about it!"

"Then please go back and send a notice to recruit fifty mature men in the territory to form an expedition team! Responsible for drawing the map of the Glacier Field, UU reading www.uukanshu.com to prepare for future exploration!" I just don't know this. How many people will come back alive in the team at the end!

   "Do you have a leader?" Jason asked again, a good leader can increase the team's chances of survival!

   "My son, Dorn!" Old Dia said, his lips trembled! His words are very likely to push his son to death!

   "He is the best hunter with the Iron Fang collar! He has led the team to hunt in the ice field many times!" He knows that this expedition is different from hunting, this time it is going deep into the ice field instead of just hunting outside the ice field! It is very possible to meet the barbarians of the North who live in the ice field!

   The notorious cannibal tribe! The beast that was driven to that barren land by the human army hundreds of years ago! There is hatred for humans in their blood!

   "You are a great mayor!" Jason was in awe!

   "But I'm not a qualified father!" Dia smiled bitterly. He has only one son, and his son has his own family. It would be cruel for them to do it himself!

   But as the mayor of Tieya Town, I am responsible for the townspeople!

   "Besides, I'm thinking about how to increase the number of people in the territory!" Jason turned off this heavy topic. The number of people from the previous census of Tieya Town was 8,633! It is hard to imagine that there are only so few people in a town the size of a county seat!

"Sir Oakey's policy was too strict before. Many people in the territory had to leave their hometown. I don't think it is very likely that they will return!" Old Dia smiled bitterly and shook his head, expressing that he wanted the former leader to come back. Too realistic!

   Jason pondered for a while, then raised his head and said seriously: "I want to issue a "Reclamation Order"!"
