CHAPTER 499: CHAPTER 229 KISLEV SNOW LEOPARD

Master Jialan said that the Jialan Council was created by a group of Elf Sages and is located within the forest. Regardless of whether his identity is an Elf, there is a high probability he could be associated with the black panther.

Lin Rui naturally looked forward to collaborating with him. Additionally, the forest’s specialty and the wealth of the Elves were also what Lin Rui anticipated.

But Lin Rui’s speculations and hopes were completely overturned by Master Jialan, who said, "Unfortunately, although I am a High-tier Senator of the Jialan Council, I am not a Lord of the forest. Instead, I hail from the northern part of the empire, from the Kislev Realm, which worships the Bear God."

"Kislev?" Lin Rui asked in surprise. Isn’t the northern part of the empire supposed to be Elves? How did Kislev appear?

The Tyrannosaurus seat looked at Lin Rui in surprise: "Are you really an Explorer? You don’t know about such an ancient and vast force?"

Master Jialan explained patiently: "The empire is indeed vast, the Elf Forest is in the northwest part of the empire. We, Kislev, are in the northeast. This region is not as mild as the south of the empire, and due to the ambiguous borders, the northern part of Kislev is almost indistinguishable from the Giant Realm and the distant Ice and Snow Tundra. This land, covered in snow and ice, is as hard as iron, with howling cold winds as sharp as the coldest daggers; yet even so, various types of monsters and savage madmen lurk on this land. The strong Mann people, chaos demons, rampage here."

"Although we are not part of the empire’s Elector faction, we are a steadfast ally of the empire, resisting chaos invasions from the north and east."

"And I myself have both Elf and Kislev blood. So I have always been trying to mediate relationships between the Jialan Council and the empire. In the face of so much chaos and evil, we, the Order Race, must unite to repel the evil threat."

Hmm, an ideal indeed quite grand.

But Lin Rui did not hold much hope for this.

Considering the character of the Order Gods, even without chaos invasion, they would quarrel among themselves to no end.

Honestly, Lin Rui couldn’t see any intention from these gods to safeguard this world.

Instead, they seem to want the world to descend into chaos, selecting their own fanatics and divine chosen warriors.

In the current situation, they look down on each other, and perhaps the destruction of the world would be a better outcome for them.

If the world were destroyed, it would indeed be a tragic outcome for the humans and Elves of this world. But perhaps not for the Divine Spirits. They might just send down more Explorers and believers, slaughter more monsters, seize more wealth and equipment, claiming greater power.

This world is certainly not the only plane or star; the gods can wage war on other planes, and they can fight back as well.

The so-called planes and stars are like dyeing games to them. If the world were destroyed, it would mean the red of chaos has dyed the entire plane. They can then dispatch another force to cleanse here, dyeing it in the gold, green, blue, etc., of their own power.

Purification of corruption, removal of chaos, has always been a technique of the gods.

However, just as Lin Rui was about to lose hope of acquiring a black panther from Master Jialan, Master Jialan suddenly spoke: "I don’t have a black panther in my domain, but we do have a Snow Leopard, which is as famous as the Gryphon of the empire and the War Eagle of the Elf Race. Would you like to take a look? There is information about the Snow Leopard in my trading list."

Lin Rui’s spirits lifted, an unexpected turn of events!

He immediately looked at Master Jialan’s trading list and quickly found information about the Snow Leopard.

[Snow Leopard: War Beast: The Empress of Kislev commands the Ice and Snow Royal Court, and should anyone dare to invade, they face a storm of death, while the beasts of Kislev wander the dense forests of the provinces, seeking the enemies of the empress. Among them is the large, long-fanged Snow Leopard, a fierce war leopard that, once trained, can be used to protect females within the Ice and Snow Royal Court. The Snow Leopard survives in the wild by preying on wandering herbivores, but when hungry, it will eat Chaos Beasts, and if necessary, is willing to tear apart a Giant or Minotaur.]

[Tier: Tier Three Level 1]

[Talent: Elite-level]

And their traits are very powerful. Respectively: [Cold Winter Heart: For those who walk the icy plains and snow-covered tundras of Kislev, wherever they go, they carry the cold heart of their motherland. It can cover its body with ice from the inside out, and after receiving a large amount of damage, the entire body will temporarily crystallize, damage reduction +99%]

[Death Frost: Summon lethal cold from the land. The attack target may suffer fatal damage regardless of armor. A critical strike ignores 35% of the enemy’s physical defense. If killed, the target will be frozen.]

[Void Jump: Some Snow Leopards will learn an incredible skill - Void Jump, allowing them to instantly traverse time and space, appearing in unknown or unexpected locations, catching the enemy off guard. Short-distance displacement, the distance not exceeding 5 meters in one bound.]

[Trembling Aura: This chilling aura will render nearby enemies almost immobile, as if trapped in a blizzard or struggling in a quagmire. All allied attacks within range gain a 5% ice attribute damage bonus and come with a deceleration effect.]

And the most important trait [Ice Maiden’s Kiss: Snow Leopards can be trained to protect females of the Ice and Snow Royal Court, exhaling pure cold that crystallizes the ground. The damage received by the females standing on the crystallized land gradually transfers to the Snow Leopard. The more crystallized the land, the higher the transfer rate, up to 50%]
