Chapter 340 Site Selection

The moment the scene changed in the arena, Bai Xiao entered the state, his attention was unprecedentedly concentrated, and his keen five senses brought all the information around him into his mind.

This is a snow-white wilderness, with the whistling cold wind filled with the smell of blood that was so strong that it could not be dissolved, and the wailings of the dead and the sound of metal and iron clashing in my ears. On this land, the weight of death has reached the point where Bai Xiao also blew his hair for it, and it was like stopping on a large cemetery where hundreds of thousands of undeads were buried! The soil under his feet seemed to be able to squeeze out bleeding water at any time... This feeling is simply comparable to the absolute forbidden area behind the Holy Mountain.

However, this strong death aura that could cause death to people at any time was forcibly suppressed by a stronger force, and tremblingly shrank below the surface. If Bai Xiao had not been particularly sensitive to death, he would not even notice the skeletons in the wilderness.

The person who suppressed the deadly aura was right in Bai Xiao's sight.

A middle-aged man with gray hair, wearing a long black dress as dark as ink, sat upright on the rough rock. He was not very good-looking, and he was alone in the snow-white wilderness, as if he was a dot of ink on white paper.

Not so conspicuous, but it can take away all the attention of everyone.

Bai Xiao was in a daze for a moment, and more people appeared in his sight.

There were hundreds of people surrounding Lu Hao in the snow-white wilderness. Some were students who were transferred with him. At this time, most of them seemed at a loss and at a loss. Some were mirror projections in the map, which only acted according to the script and did not have complex intelligence. Finally, there were roles carefully played by temporary workers. They were wearing gorgeous clothes and armor, and their bodies emitted amazing magical fluctuations. They stood in front of the crowd, bowed to Lu Hao, and looked ashamed.

Although it is the wilderness, it seems that there is a magnificent hall standing here in a trance. The rocks under Lu Hao also lie in the form of dragons and tigers, facing up like mountains, making the owner on the "throne" look more domineering.

In an instant, Bai Xiao realized the identity of this person and the script of this map.

He is not good-looking, but unique. This is Lu Hao, the overlord of the Western Continent. Even after two thousand years, even if most people have only seen his portrait in textbooks, they will not admit their mistakes as long as they encounter it.

It's true that you won't admit your mistake.

Only such a person can give him a blow when the rule of the Holy Yuan Empire is at its peak. Only such a person can suppress hundreds of thousands of undead with his own strength, making a bloody cemetery look flawless and pure white.

Compared with future generations, Lu Hao's image is even more unique. Even compared to the era when the magic civilization is more prosperous after a thousand years, Lu Hao's strength is no longer the only one, but no one can imitate the unique domineering aura in the sky and the earth.

There is no need for a dragon throne, the place where it is located is the throne, and there is no need for luxurious clothes to carve. The temperament of a god and a demon descending to the earth is the best sign.

At this moment, the overlord of the Western Continent was asking a simple question to his subordinates.

"Have the site selection plan for the Imperial Magic Academy been decided?"

Bai Xiao's mind moved, and relevant records from history textbooks emerged in his mind.

1800 years ago, Lu Hao launched the War of Independence, annihilated more than 400,000 Shengyuan Expeditionary Forces, and established Hongshan City and Hongshan Academy on the battlefield of strategic decisive battle...

Regarding the establishment of Hongshan Academy, there is only such a simple description in the textbook, but I think it is impossible to establish the first magic academy of the empire.

Even in the early days of the establishment of the empire, Lu Hao made all strategic plans in one sentence, but what drove Lu Hao to make decisions must be extremely complex calculations and trade-offs - this first-generation overlord of the Western Continent never had a reputation for being reckless.

So, for what reason did Lu Hao decide to establish Hongshan City and Hongshan Academy on a large cemetery?

There is no answer to this question in history books. After all, the history textbook for freshmen is only a few hundred pages, but it is necessary to summarize the history of the Western Continent for two thousand years. It is impossible to expand a detailed event. However, through the extended reading, you can understand the historical outline of 1,800 years ago.

After the battle, Lu Hao clearly raised questions to his subordinates, where should the first magic academy of the Ming Empire be built?

After fierce discussions, the ministers also gave several plans. In the end, Lu Hao chose Hongshan City and Hongshan Academy from these plans.

Now, the year-end test is to bring students back 1,800 years ago and revisit the history of the college's site selection.

After realizing the main line of the script, Bai Xiao suddenly realized something, his eyes immediately swept around, and then discovered a strange fact.

In front of Qingyue, Zuo Qingsui and others, there was a group of important founding officials in luxurious clothes, but in front of him was empty, that is to say...

"Your Majesty, I and others have discussed it many times and drafted more than ten plans. After summary and integration, they unanimously agreed that the Imperial Magic Academy should be re-established on the former site of Baiye City."

Then, many important officials agreed and the momentum was quite huge. Bai Xiao looked at it and almost all the subordinates in Lu Hao's early days of the founding of the country chose to rebuild the old site.

This has been recorded in textbooks that before the War of Independence, the Western Continent had a very mature magic education system, and its hub was located in Baiye City. It was a miraculous building created by the colonists of the Shengyuan Empire who spent a lot of energy to create... but it was destroyed by the war. I felt sorry for this at that time, even Lu Hao himself, so many people suggested that the ruins be rebuilt and make full use of the legacy of the Shengyuan Empire. But in the end, Lu Hao opposed the opposition and chose to establish the capital on the dead land.

In the eyes of people at that time, Lu Hao's choice was actually a bit unreasonable. He didn't want to put the great foundation left by Baiye City. Building a city on a dead land would be half the result with twice the effort no matter how he thought... But Lu Hao's personal influence at that time was enough to overwhelm all opposition voices, and the history of later generations also proved that there were various benefits to building a city in Hongshan, and Lu Hao's strategic vision was indeed unquestionable.

The only problem is... Bai Xiao has never read this part of historical records.

In other words, among the millions of books in the library, none of them have recorded Lu Hao's decision-making process in detail... Because Bai Xiao was still quite interested in this section when he read the history textbook, he focused on investigating it. Indeed, there is no clear record of Lu Hao's judgment process.

But worldly knowledge is obviously not limited to small libraries, so there may be corresponding records in some minor books, but Bai Xiao obviously does not have the energy to exhaust the world's collection of books, so he can only regard this matter as a small unsolved mystery and let's skip it for now.

But I didn’t expect that the problem I had missed had become the core issue of this year-end test!

At this time, Lu Hao faced the common suggestions of his subordinates, he just nodded slightly and said, "It makes sense to rebuild the old site..."

After pondering for a moment, Lu Hao suddenly opened his eyes and swept his eyes to the other side.

"What about you, what do you think?"

Bai Xiao's eyes touched the black eyes, and he felt his mind shocked in an instant, as if mountains and raging waves were rippling in his heart. At the same time, he spoke his lines almost uncontrollably.

"It's better to choose this place instead of choosing White Night City!"

The next moment, there was silence in the wilderness.

The temporary workers who play historical roles fully fulfilled their obligations and remained silent at this time.

Lu Hao on the throne sneered and pointed his finger at his feet: "Here? This cemetery?"

Bai Xiao nodded: "It is the burial place of the 400,000 Saint Yuan Expeditionary Force, which is the most suitable one!"

At this time, he had fully understood the outline of this year-end test.

He and Qingyue and others are two completely opposite camps, and the difference between the camps is that they have differences in the location of the first magic academy in the empire.

Most people chose the former site of Baiyecheng Academy, which seemed unquestionably wise at the time. On the contrary, the Hongshan City strategy seemed like a fantasy.

But history is following the trajectory of a fantasy.

At that time, Lu Hao chose Hongshan City with all his might, for some reason.
