Xinfeng Town is under the jurisdiction of the Ice Forest Province of the Krusted Federation and is managed by the Mamous District. Half an hour's drive west along the road is the North Mamous River, the birthplace of the Krusted people's civilization.
The cluster of spots in the white snow that can be seen to the east is the "Far North Forest". Within hundreds of kilometers of the three-point line up and down, there are neither canyons formed by trembling and tearing of the earth's veins, nor endless stretches of people. Some of the mountains that linger are just plains that are quite suitable for agricultural cultivation and are easy to attack and difficult to defend.
During the Old Empire period from the second to the third era, Xinfeng Town was the transportation hub connecting the densely populated Binglin Province with the sparsely populated and extremely cold special zone rich in minerals and other resources.
After briefly disposing of the direwolf's body and removing the still intact fur, Luo Nie used the gauze from the old medical kit he carried with him to simply bandage most of the man's wounds.
Walking out of that small, dark and depressing oak settlement, the dark clouds lingering in the sky quickly dispersed, and streaks of holy golden light spilled on the road, making the two people who had just experienced the battle feel a sense of Comfort and hope.
After about thirty minutes of walking along the stone road where the snow was melting rapidly, the two finally stepped onto a solid, solid and flat cement main road.
After walking forward for about half an hour, the unique fireworks emanating from human settlements finally appeared in front of them.
Luo Nie, who had not been in a human town for too long and had contact with people living in groups, had a childish smile on his face. He opened his arms and greedily sucked in the "smell of life" mixed with freshness.
Since Xinfeng Town was rarely invaded by "unintentional people" after the New Yuan Dynasty, and because it was the fiefdom of Charles XII of the old empire, it has retained a strong traditional atmosphere.
The wet cement road ended abruptly near the town gate, and was replaced by the town's "old road" of gray red bricks and bluestones. The flying snow in the sky had only stopped for an hour or two, and the area near the gate had been swept away to be almost spotless.
The outer perimeter of the town continues its classical design, with a nearly 5-meter-high red brick wall completely surrounding it to provide limited protection against "unintentional" attacks.
Before the New Yuan Dynasty, the Krusted Empire was known as a "strictly managed country". Unless they were villagers in the mountains and fields, any resident living in cities or small towns had to carry several types of documents when traveling within the empire. Complex proofs ensure that the empire makes full use of its "human" resources.
After the New Year, especially after the collapse of the empire, the new Federal Council's management of Krusted appeared to be incompetent under the repeated blows from "unintentional people".
The proofs of the past have become history. Because Xinfeng Town is located at the junction of the boom and bust areas, it has attracted many travelers from all over the world who want to explore north. Therefore, even though there are two people standing in front of the wooden gate who are nearly two meters tall. , burly "guardians", but their duties do not include checking identities and documents.

Migrated here. History books say that the Central Empire was not an endless single family dynasty, but changed its banner three times due to internal struggles. It was during the third time that we left when Maimaiti I became the new Central Emperor. "The man replied, his tone sounding like he was recounting an out-of-reach history that had nothing to do with him.
"So, your last name has Constantine in it?" Ronie asked.
"That's right." Yin Geer lay on the bed and nodded with difficulty:
"It was the capital of the Central Empire at the end of the Second Era. It was the center of the world, the greatest port, and the most prosperous trade transit station. The Hagia Sophia built during that period is the current capital of the Federation, St. Yinfan The prototype of the cathedral.”
"It is indeed a great city." Luo Nie praised:
"However, Mr. Yingol, I am very curious about two things. First, when did you start to believe in the "Lord of Machines" and to what extent you have reached it now; second, what did you do to anger "Wind Mine"? ", making him misunderstand what you stole...what "wind-related core", and making him hunt you down? "
Staring at the white ceiling unfocused for several seconds, Yin Ge pursed his lips, sighed heavily, and chose to answer directly:
"Because of my research."
"Research?"
"Yes, my research can answer two of your questions. Luo Nie, don't worry, you saved my life. I will be completely honest with you and satisfy all your curiosity. My research is called " The search for an evolution platform has always been carried out with funding from the Mechanical Group of the Federal Council. "
"Xinfeng Town is an excellent place for my research. It not only has an amazing reserve of "wind" resources, but also has vast plains, which is convenient for me to carry out observation activities. Speaking of Luo Nie, do you know about the "Universal Energy Evolution Platform"? "
"I don't know." Luo Nie shook her head, "It is a strange word to me. Even my master never told me similar words when he created me."
"Oh?" Yin Geer first looked at Luo Nie in surprise. He was quite surprised by the "master" and "creation" in his mouth, but he also remembered the young man's explosive power when facing the dire wolves just now, and the use of He understood the "Light of Mechanical Spirit", and he quickly felt relieved. He coughed twice and explained:
"The technology of the old empire is great and mysterious enough. So far, we don't know what other amazing products those admirable scientists have developed. As far as the "Universal Energy Evolution Platform" is concerned, it is the use of It was built with ores dug from hot rock formations tens of thousands of meters underground in the continent. "
"These ores are very hard, but the mining cost is huge. They are mixed with steel, titanium, etc., and the old empire built them in underground laboratories near seven cities. It is said that they were inspired by the magic source power users like. "Leap Technique", after modification, they can recombine the high-temperature receiving equipment to the outer layer of the sun through quantum reorganization, and then use the unique light energy receiving device to obtain the energy generated by the sun's nuclear fusion. "
"It's so hard to understand..." Luo Nie rubbed her hair and said with a confused look on her face:
"This seems to have transcended the age of machinery and steam. I heard the terms "electrical age" and "information age" decades ago. Can they be included in their categories? "
"You are very smart, Luo Nie." Yin Ge said in a positive tone:
"At that time, I heard that the old empire was still trying to use nuclear fission to create a "fire of punishment" that could explode without relying on any magic power. As long as the magic source element in the Yurem ore is eliminated, it is equivalent to unlocking the shackles of power limitations. Once this type of "Fire of Punishment" is developed, only a few hundred will be needed to destroy the entire continent. "
"Technology is such a scary thing." Luo Nie said with emotion.
"Back to the "Universal Energy Evolution Platform", the energy obtained from the sun is poured into a special container. One place can supply all the electricity needed by a city for hundreds of years. In addition, the old empire also has a conceptual plan to fly out of the planet, which requires a lot of energy. And my experiment is to find them, help the federation restart them, and then use the stored energy to try to spread it outwards to purify the "unintentional people", end the wasteland crisis, and start a new "renewal".
"The Age of Initiation". "
"This is a new idea. It does not rely on magic or war. It solves the problem fundamentally. But is it feasible?" Luo Nie asked curiously.
"I don't know." Yin Gere shook his head, "To activate the equipment in my laboratory to find the location of the ruins where the "evolution platform" is located, the power of the wind is needed. The wind here has been blowing for thousands of years and has never been polluted in any period. It can make my experiments error-free. "
"As for the history of the town, I'll tell you slowly in a few days. I just heard you said you were going to travel here for a while, right?" Yingor confirmed.
"Yes, the north of here is the extreme cold zone. I want to find the god wrapped in "Plamini". Luo Nie said honestly.
"I'm afraid this will be a difficult and dangerous journey. I suggest you be prepared here before setting off. Now many people are eyeing the person behind "Plamini" just like you, including the one who tried to kill me. Order will". Yingor suggested.
"Continue talking about your experiment. I'm curious about the other contents of the "evolution stage". "
"Of course." Yin Ge said with a smile:
"It is said that in the early stages of construction, the old empire mapped the position of the Big Dipper on Crusted territory to find the starting point for construction. In fact, according to the existing data, as long as two locations are found and can be determined which star they belong to, all the remaining ones can be determined position."
"So far...how many have been found?"
"One, in Qiao Yingrad, but it seems that the Federal Council is not in a hurry to enter there. About two weeks ago, they said they would make some preparations and collect some energy before officially opening the laboratory and "evolution platform" of the old empire. By the way, the existing information shows that in the words of the Khitanris people, the corresponding Big Dipper there should be "Tianquan". "
