Chapter 126: Expedition Log
Listening to the howl of the north wind, Riven and I continued on our way.
The next destination is the Frost Fortress, which is not detailed on the map, except that it is an ancient ruin.
Oddly enough, in addition to this Frost Fortress that we are going to, there are several more on the map, evenly distributed along a mountain range.
On the way, I read the explorer's journal I found underground, a palm-sized notebook with a few pages left unfinished.
The explorer is a couple, and the man who writes the diary is a man, and this person really writes everything, and writes down all the indescribable things they have done.
It's obviously an explorer's log, so it's not good to be professional! What do others think when they see it!
Well, it's me who snoops on someone else's privacy without permission.
Most of the previous content is a description of several tombs of Shurima, although it is very detailed, but without exploring the truth, many scenes are unimaginable.
Just like reading a tomb robbery, this journal has sparked my strong interest, and if I have the opportunity to visit Shurima in the future, I will definitely follow what is written on it.
There's a little bit of travel to Frelzhud in the back, and there's nothing special about it, but there's one thing I'm more concerned about, and that's the description of the Avarosa tribe:
Today Teresa and I have come to the famous Avarosa tribe, which is very rich compared to other places.
Maybe because life is better, people's attitude is much better than elsewhere, especially Patriarch Worf, who is very warm to me.
However, the enthusiasm of the people here is different from that of other places, and fighting is always the mainstream of their lives.
I don't know how Wolf saw my deliberately hidden power, but he wanted to fight with me.
Since the Freljords liked this, there was no way to do it, so I agreed to come down and defeat him, but I didn't expect an old man to have such strength.
At the dinner table, Wolf said that he was old and was going to pass on the patriarch to a little girl named Ash, much to my surprise, because Ash didn't look like a leader.
She is beautiful and easy to make people think about it, and Talissa twisted my thigh as usual to prevent me from getting distracted, but she really misunderstood me this time!
Through Wolf's words, I learned that he did this because Ash had the approval of Avarosa, and she had gained the power of the Crystal Bow.
After getting the consent of Wolf and Ash, I picked up the Crystal Bow and studied it, and found that it was indeed different.
This bow does not require arrows, as long as it can be pulled away, arrows will automatically appear on it, and it can shoot up to six arrows at the same time, which is simply an artifact for an archer like Ash.
- I tested the composition of the Crystal Bow with a rune molecular device and found that it was made of extremely dense ice cubes, and at the same time, the ice cubes contained powerful magic.
For the first time, I saw a tough block of ice, which would not break even if it was bent 90 degrees, and it seemed that it could not be answered by Piltover's science.
When I saw this, I learned that the two explorers, a man and a woman, were from Piltover, the famous city of technology.
No wonder there is so much high-tech equipment, and the few I brought out haven't studied how to use it, so I'll continue to read:
I wanted to scrape a little powder while they weren't paying attention, but the crystal bow was so strong that it couldn't be scraped at all!
Patriarch Wolf is very interested in our expedition tools, especially the searchlights on my and Telisa's hats.
This searchlight is not used for electricity, but with the power of the sun stone, which is much brighter than white crystal.
Seeing that he liked it so much, I gave him a Sun Stone, and in return, he gave us two Ice Dragon Fangs.
Although the Sun Stone is precious, it is far worse than the Ice Dragon's Tooth, and of course I can't accept such a precious item, although my heart is very itchy.
Wolf was not polite, but really wanted to give it to us, and he said that if we were really embarrassed to accept it, we could form a blood alliance with him, so that we would all be our own people.
The people of Freljord like to be friends with powerful people, and as an explorer, I also like to make friends, so I agreed.
I asked him if there was anything worth exploring here, and he marked me with a few places to visit on the map.
We didn't stay, we left at night, I am grateful to Wolf as a friend, without his Ice Dragon's Fang, it would be difficult for us to continue north.
It turned out that the couple and Wolf were still blood alliances, and these experiences were very similar to ours, except that I finally rejected Wolf.
I looked at his map, and even the places marked were the same, but unfortunately, they were killed as soon as they arrived at the outpost.
But the following passage surprised me:
Teresa didn't want to go, she wanted to go back to Piltover first, because she was pregnant!
However, we just became pregnant, so it didn't affect our actions, so we discussed it and decided to travel for another half a year and then go back to raise this child.
Ezreal, you're going to be a brother!
The couple turned out to be Ezreal's parents!
I suddenly had a little mixed feelings, and he probably didn't know that something like this had happened.
It seems that when the journey here is over, I should go to Piltover and give him this diary, the little yellow-haired family is not perfect!
"You've been reading books since just now, what's written on it?"
"Here, see for yourself."
"Well, I don't know the words hehe."
Yes, Rui Wen used to be a poor child, and there are more misfortunes in this world than imagined!
When I told her the contents of the journal, I thought she would be moved to tears, but she couldn't help it when she heard this kind of story.
But this time the attention was not on Ezreal's misfortunes, too, they didn't know each other, and it was not surprising that they didn't get noticed.
"Why do I feel weird when I hear you say it?"
"What's strange?"
"I think their deaths have something to do with Wolf!"
"Why do you say that?"
"I don't know, it's just that way, you see, he's the same to those two people as we are."
“…… Okay, don't think about it, Freljord just likes to make friends, he is old, he may be a little confused, so he let Bernie do bad things, but after learning the truth, he also made up for it in time, don't blame him for everything. ”
"I don't think he's confused, you see his eyes light up when he speaks, just like Boss Tam !
Rivien's description almost made me laugh, but when I think about it, it does look like Tam's eyes.
"Whether he's confused or not, it's good that there's no malice anyway, whether it's these two explorers or the two of us, he just tried it with us, and then gave us two ice dragon fangs, and didn't do anything else."
"Hmm...... That's how much I think about it. ”
