160 Frozen Girl

What was frozen inside was the face of a young girl.

Looking back, I could see the curled body of a girl.

The girl hugged her body, her clothes fluttered as if soaked in water, her brown hair rose like flowing water, and her whole body was frozen.

Her eyelashes were long and thick, closed gently, and at first glance seemed to be sound asleep.

Luo Ning took his eyes back and put it on the city lord.

At this time, the city lord completely disregarded the severe cold, leaning half of his body on the ice, with his eyes closed and his brows furrowed.

He had a haggard look on his face, but he felt a little relaxed and moved when he came into contact with the ice.

The person who was frozen inside must be the close relative of the city lord. According to this age difference, it is probably… a daughter?

“Lord Traveler, this is… my little daughter.”

The city lord’s hand gently brushed the surface of the ice, with a little attachment and faint anger on his face.

“It looks like a kind of ice-attribute sealing magic.” Raz’s eyes popped out, helping Luo Ning, who didn’t understand magic, make some judgments.

“Yes, it is a kind of sealing magic, the sealing magic from the hands of the imperial ice element magician.”

The little guy behind the boy could tell the type of magic at a glance, which surprised the city owner a little.

Before that, he always thought that the little guy was just a good-looking mascot.

“Using sealing magic, that is to say, the other party didn’t want to kill your daughter? If it is creation magic, if it is frozen in such a space without air, it will only take a few minutes to die due to lack of oxygen.” Raz leaned on Lonin’s shoulder curiously.

“Your analysis is correct…” The city lord nodded in praise.

“Empire?” The focus of Luo Ning’s analysis was not in Raz’s analysis, he was more concerned with what the city lord said before.

“You are the city lord of the west city of the Crotal Empire, but your daughter was sealed here by the ice element magician of the empire?” Luo Ning asked in confusion.

The city owner took a deep breath and buried his head:

“That’s true… Although he is the city lord of Xicheng, he is only a small city lord. A border city lord like us can’t even compare to half the nobles of the empire… He has a high position in Xicheng, but in the eyes of the entire empire , it’s just a small shrimp.”

He stroked the sharp edge of the ice pick and recalled: “My little daughter went to the imperial capital to study magic half a year ago. She already has a certain aptitude for magic. As a father, she naturally wants to send her to a better place. She didn’t want to go to study, but I insisted on sending her away…”

“I killed her.” The city lord’s tone trembled slightly, and his expression fluctuated:

“In the academy of the imperial capital, she was bullied by the nobles and the royal family. People from border areas like us who go to the imperial capital, even if they are the daughters of the city lord, can’t hold their heads up in front of the royal nobles. Although I teach my daughter, to go to that kind of place only requires Just take care of your studies, don’t provoke anyone, just stay as far away as you can…”

Speaking of this, the corners of the city lord’s eyes began to get wet: “But three months ago, I went to the imperial capital to see my daughter, and after I came out of the teleportation array, I looked for her for a long time… Finally, in an inconspicuous corner of the academy, found her.”

“She became… like this…”

The city lord burst into tears, and people’s feelings are fragile when facing their loved ones.

After Luo Ning quietly listened to the encounter and story of the city lord, he got closer to see the situation inside the ice pick.

The girl’s expression was not painful, but rather peaceful, as if she was naturally asleep.

But if you look closely, you can find different degrees of frostbite on the girl’s torso.

I am afraid it is the ice magician who sealed her, and it is not the first or second time that she has targeted her.

But none of these things mattered to Luo Ning, he was just a passerby at best.

When Luo Ning came out of Demon King City, he was already full of heavy responsibilities, so how could he have the heart to deal with other people’s sophistication.

“I spent a lot of money to send my daughter back from the imperial capital… Hiding in this small basement, I don’t even know who made her become like this, the tutor in the academy asked me not to ask, I had no choice but to bring it back like this.”

“Bring it back and put it here for three months?” Luo Ning walked around the ice pick.

“Yes…” The city lord nodded solemnly.

“Three months, you didn’t ask someone to untie the seal for you? Even if the city lord you said was not a high-ranking official, after so many years of taxation, your personal income won’t even be able to afford a magician, right? ?” Luo Ning wondered.

“Please afford it…” The city lord hunched his back, his face a little vicissitudes:

“But all the magicians in the city know that my daughter is a seal magic cast by someone in the imperial capital, and the caster is either a royal family or a nobleman. No matter how much money I spend, they are not willing to provoke those people… “

“What about the adventurers? Didn’t the number of adventurers in your place suddenly increase some time ago?”

“Indeed, I asked a lot of adventurers for help during that time… But their goal is to go to the Demon Race’s territory, so why would they care about such a trivial matter as me. Furthermore, although the adventurers have no direct relationship with the empire, but Most adventurers are still reluctant to provoke imperial forces… So, no one is willing to take action at all.”

The city lord looked tired, especially after having strong emotional fluctuations, the relaxed mood made the whole person weak and even more decadent.

From the words of the city owner, Luo Ning finally knew why the other party was so excited after knowing that he was a traveler from a foreign land.

Luo Ning is neither a magician of the empire, nor does he belong to the Adventurer’s Guild, so it can be said that there is no force involved.

However, the element mastered by such a person is still the fire element that restrains the ice element.

“So, what are you going to pay me for?”

To be honest, Luo Ning is not very interested in this kind of thing, what kind of father-daughter relationship, Luo Ning has no sense of substitution, so he can’t be moved.

Moreover, the city lord does not look like a wise monarch, and it is not a matter of a day or two to abuse his power. He was able to ‘invite’ Luo Ning here on the grounds of compensation, which has already explained a lot of things.

It can only be said that it is neither black nor white, but for Luo Ning, if a little effort can be exchanged for the coins that are most in short supply at this stage, this job is not unacceptable.

“What do you want?”

“money.”

Luo Ning’s answer was quite decisive.

The mayor paused when he heard that.

Luo Ning immediately added: “There is still some information.”

“I do have the money… I still have 300 gold coins left here. If the traveler is willing to help, I am willing to give you all the money.” The city owner’s tone was sincere, the young man in front of him, to him It is the last hope.
