A violent storm filled the sky, and the sky was so white that there was not a single ray of the sun in sight.

If it weren't for the fact that there were some tall buildings in the royal city that could hold out the wind, there would not even be any professionals lounging around the streets.

William looked into the distance, the four words were really true, the whole city was covered in ice and snow, except for the chimneys that kept billowing black smoke, he even thought that there were not many households in this royal city at all.

Of course.

The royal city of the Glacier Kingdom really doesn't have much population, and it only has more than 500,000 people who have died.

The vast majority of these populations are spread out of the city, they don't like to work, they like to live freely, such as hunting, whether it's ordinary animals, or magical beasts, they basically just see it, and they won't let it go.

If you can't, you can also kill a few orcs to exchange for food!

But.

In the temperature of the blizzard, as long as the civilians who are not working indoors, they will hide at home and drink and roast the fire.

Beverage.

This thing is sold in the far north more than grain, and it is also more expensive.

But I can't stand the fact that there are many people who buy it.

The men of the Far North scolded all day long, but they still had no choice but to take out gold coins and throw them to the wine vendors.

It's not that they don't have the heart to rob.

But they were afraid that after the robbery, this group of business travelers from other places would not come, and then they would not even have any drinks to drink.

Therefore, the wine made from grain is far more like the necessities of human beings in the Far North than food, and basically with wine, even if there is no food to eat, there is no big problem.

You can go without eating.

But you can't do without wine......

Even if they starved to death, they had to be drunk and starved to death.

If it weren't for the distance between the two, William would have wanted to open the portal here and come here to sell wine......

But it can't be helped.

It's cold.

It's too cold.

If you don't drink, it's hot and it's uncomfortable.

However.

On a day when the wind was howling and the snow was falling.

There were six people, one horse, and they ran farther north in the cold and biting north wind.

It's minus 50 degrees now.

The wind is also very exaggerated, if it is an ordinary person, it will be blown away by the strong wind directly, and you can enjoy the feeling of flying!

William also felt the cold, but feeling the cold does not mean that their physical fitness cannot withstand the cold.

Not to mention unicorns.

The five of them, plus Olaf, a high-ranking local berserker, would not have a problem in the face of such a snowstorm.

It's just going farther and farther away.

It's getting off the beaten track.

Olaf was a little intimidated.

But he thought about it, what were he afraid of?

The five grandmasters of the family, can they still rob themselves halfway?

I have a total of 4 gold coins in my pocket.

Even the new coat was bought by someone, so what else is there to worry about?

That's it.

All the way north.

Withstood the wind and snow from noon to dark.

At last they saw a small city.

The steel gates were open, the streets were empty, and the walls were unguarded, like a ghost town.

But the walls of the glacial kingdom are very thick, and soldiers can keep warm inside the walls while secretly observing.

The absence of the gate guards coming out means that they are not a danger at all......

And there was no one on the streets, because the civilians were all at home, at least many of the chimneys were emitting black smoke.

Olaf glanced at the gradually darkening sky, and couldn't help but say: "This city is the northernmost city in the Glacier Kingdom, whether you want to continue north or not, we better stay here now, the temperature drops sharply after dark, and I feel that the blizzard will be more exaggerated." ”

William patted the fur on his body, the snowflakes that stuck to it fell one after another, and he nodded: "Yes, where is it further north?" ”

"The Grand Duchy of the Northern Regions, that is the last country of our human race to be close to the north, and the first line of defense against the Orc Empire.

The Frost Empire, the Glacier Kingdom, and the Snowy Kingdom have all planted many legions in the Northern Grand Duchy to defend against orc harassment and attacks. Olaf gave a detailed introduction.

Since William asked, it almost shows that these people should be interested in going to the Grand Duchy of the Northern Regions.

As for what to do.

Then he doesn't know.

But anyway.

Olaf is still very confident in the defensive ability of the Grand Duchy of the Northern Regions, and he is not worried that William and them will make trouble, but just think that they want to see the orc army on a large scale.

Because hundreds of years ago, in the direction north of the glacial kingdom, there was no so-called Grand Duchy of the Northern Regions at all.

The existence of the Grand Duchy of the Northern Regions was originally a duke of the Frost Empire.

This powerful and titled epic powerhouse, he led thousands of troops and horses, conquered the east and west, rapidly expanded the territory of the Frost Empire, and killed hundreds of thousands of orcs, grabbing the territory in his hands.

And since then.

The Frost Empire gave him this realm and made him the lord of the Grand Duchy of the Northern Regions!

Meanwhile.

In order to defend against the counterattack of the Orc Empire, the Frost Empire not only sent legions to support, but the two subsidiary kingdoms also supported many legions.

Of course.

Mercenaries, hunters, and many others are also present here.

An army of more than 200,000 people is in the Grand Duchy of the Northern Regions, forming the first line of defense against the Orc Empire.

Not only are these legions powerful, but their commanders are also some of the most famous warriors.

William knew a little bit about it.

But only what I learned from books in the library.

Because in the last life, the Grand Duchy of the Northern Regions was gone!

Both the legions and the civilians, a population of more than two million people, all died in a curse.

The curse spreads extremely quickly.

People can't react at all.

When the Frost Empire sent the Legendary Archmage here, there was only a group of dying professionals left.

But before the archmage could figure out a way to break the curse.

Those professionals also died tragically under the curse.

William thought to himself, "If there is still a month, that is when the curse erupts. ”

"Then a month ago, finding the source of the curse may not be able to solve this crisis." His Royal Highness touched his chin, he was not here for the reward of the Frost Empire.

After all, on the premise of not knowing in advance how terrifying this curse was.

Naturally, the Frost Empire wouldn't give him any rewards.

But he made the trip for the reward of the system mission.

"However, if I can't find the source of the curse within 20 days, then I must get out of here." William has made up his mind that waves can be waves.

But you can't wave your life to die here, the professionals who died of this curse at the beginning are not only grandmasters, but also powerhouses with epic titles.

That's enough to show how strong the curse is.

"Especially this curse is not the curse of the goddess of doom, it belongs to the kind of deadly curse, otherwise I can wave unscrupulously." When William thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

…………

The group quickly found a place to stay.

In this far north.

Except for some hotels in Glacier King City, which are of higher grade, in these small cities, it is basically considered a first-class room if you can keep warm.

One of the unicorns wants to follow Annele into the hotel with a dead face.

Pity.

Under William's eyes, it was dragged into the stable by the tavernkeeper.

Fortunately.

The stables also have stoves

Annele glanced at the unicorn worriedly, and quickly forgot about it at William's call......

After a while.

The innkeeper came back from outside, patted the snowflakes on his body, and said with a shudder: "That horse's strength is really not small, I almost didn't get it, it should be a monster, it's quite human!"

But there are six of you, but now there are only five upper class rooms, and two people need to live together. ”

"Five is five."

"That's okay, five first-class rooms, warm, no air leakage, enough wood pipes, free stables with their own stoves, adults give me 2 gold coins is enough."

"5 gold coins, take out the best food in your local area, there should be Warcraft meat, right?" William asked suddenly.

"Yes, yes, wait, sir, the best drinks and food are guaranteed." The middle-aged innkeeper took the gold coin, nodded with a smile, and soon beckoned his wife to prepare food and drink.

Olaf looked at the innkeeper who turned his head and left, and couldn't help but say, "How can this little broken city have food and wine worth 5 gold coins, even the meat of the monster is very cheap." ”

William smiled: "There are only some things outside the body, there is no need to pay too much attention to them, you just need to act as a guide for me for 30 days, and I will give you 10 magic crystals in return, what do you think?" ”

"What's that??" Olaf was stunned.

Just when William wanted to continue to increase the price, Olaf shook his head: "Keep that thing for yourself, give me 1,000 gold coins, not to mention thirty days, three years......"

Burning Ash, Legolas, and Old Leather couldn't help but sob, you're so cheap......

You don't want a more expensive magic crystal?

Can you sell yourself for 3 years for 1000 gold?

It's not that Olaf doesn't know the value of the magic crystal, he just sighs and says, "The magic crystal is good, but in this hellish place, gold coins are the most affordable thing."

I don't want to sell the magic crystals when I get them, but if I cultivate by myself, how can I have 10 magic crystals? ”

William thoughtfully: "Yes, let's talk about it then." ”

"So, how are the rooms allocated?" His Royal Highness the Prince said at this time.

Moment.

Boom.

Several figures flashed, and Ember, Legolas, and Lao Pi each chose a first-class room.

Olaf glanced at Anne, who was admiring the interior, then he glanced at William again and said, "Why don't you live with me, my lord?" ”

"........." William's fist creaked.

Olaf nodded and turned to leave.

Subsequently.

His Royal Highness the Prince glanced at Aniel's shoulder: "It's over, there is only one house left, and we can only live together." ”

"Oh." The little penguin-like Annele brushed his hand away, turned her head and suddenly tilted her mouth and asked, "I feel that you have an intention." ”

"There is wood, there is wood completely."

"Well, you can't sleep in a bed."

"............" William's face was expressionless, such a cold weather, not let me sleep in bed?

"Just kidding~"

"Hehe, I know that my Aniel can't bear to let me freeze!"
