The wind and snow are getting heavier and heavier.

It was as heavy as Sauron's mood at the moment, his steps were heavy, and his heart was heavy.

He has always been a very subjective person, but he is really a little upset today, his heart seems to be heavy, and some kind of suppressed emotion makes him a little breathless. He tightened his cloak and walked step by step into the snow, and the snowflakes fell on him, and soon his shoulders were snow-white. Sauron raised his hand to shake off the snow from his body, turned his head and silently stared at Arendelle's palace, where he stood for a long time in a corner that people could not see, and then turned and entered a white world.

Vivien was still waiting for him.

It is almost impossible for him to marry Arendelle's princess, the future queen, because Vivien is the son of the god of fear, and it is possible that she will be the god of fear in the future. Unless he is willing to let Vivien face this qiē alone, he will inevitably go further and further on the path of the Demon God, and it is not an exaggeration for them to say that they are the enemy of the whole world. Even if he finally helps Vivien defeat the Dreadful Demon God, the evil gods will covet Vivien's divine powers, and the good gods will try to destroy the Dreaddemon once and for all, and Vivien's path is destined to be thorny and bloody.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have prepared for the worst in his mind to transform into a shadow lich!

Sauron performed an ancient knightly salute.

It's not a representation, it's just a promise, a promise to the Guardian Knight.

He will be sure to stand behind her when she needs it!

The wind and snow are still flying.

In this snow-covered world, Sauron saw two lines, one rising to the top of the throne. She will be the ruler of Arendelle, the queen who is supported by all the people. The phantasm of the gods stood behind her, protecting her kingdom. also guards her. The other descended into the bottomless abyss, and the path he walked would be covered with blood, and the bones of countless enemies would accumulate into a ladder, and in the vast white bones he stepped into the bottom of the abyss, where a battle awaited him.

For Vivien.

Sauron is willing to give up his life, and his steps will not stop here.

Although his heart was so heavy! ……

A chill enveloped the world to the bone, and the scimitar at Sauron's waist glowed with a crystalline glow, and when he pulled out the legendary scimitar called 'Ice Death', it seemed to spread like an icy glow on it. It looked so dazzling, but its temperature was so bone-chilling, and the scimitar seemed to carry a hint of spirituality, and felt the heaviness in Sauron's heart.

………………

Mountains emerge in the distance.

Sauron's footsteps didn't stop, and he walked silently from town to town, heading in the direction of the Northlands.

His appearance was completely different from the beginning, he was dressed in a black robe, holding a wooden staff in his hand, and a wide gray cloak on the outside. There were no weapons in sight, only a pair of delicate black gloves on their hands. His face was a little thin, and he could faintly see the embarrassed stubble, and his pupils were deep and silent. There is a lot of determination when he looks ahead. He was dressed like a traveling wizard, which saved him most of the troubles, and no one dared to disturb a lone wizard.

Arendelle is getting farther and farther away.

But the girl's gaze seemed to be still behind her. Sauron's mind occasionally flashed her teary-eyed look.

It was really beautiful!

The idea of marrying a woman first came to him, and it was hard to describe in words. But it's really hard not to be moved.

He walked through a grove of trees and across a frozen river. Over the towering snow-capped mountains.

Occasionally, he was bothered by a few monsters that didn't have long eyes, but before he could get close enough to be slain by a spell, he looked like a real wizard and followed his path to his destination.

The wind and snow lasted for three days before it stopped.

Sauron had come to the snowy mountains that stretched for hundreds of miles, and he made his way along a trail, using his levitation and flying skills to climb over these treacherous mountains. Time passed, and he didn't travel much every day, as he encountered many powerful creatures, frost pterosaurs entrenched near the mountains, huge ice sculptures, earthwalkers as heavy as mammoths, and bear goblins scattered around, as well as many powerful monsters that were familiar and unfamiliar.

Scattered in packs, they are dangerous and deadly, and Sauron has even had to use stealth to escape several times.

The brutal environment brings them together, where bear goblins can even form tribes with ice trolls, and these creatures hunt each other to survive in the snowy mountains of Zài.

The temperature is getting a little warmer.

The mountains held out the cold winds from the land of ice and snow, and the greenery in front of him grew brighter, and Sauron knew that he was approaching the range of the Northlands.

Across here is the Northlands, a territory ruled by witches.

The woods in front of him were getting denser and denser, and the mountains were already behind him, and Sauron walked through the thick woodland, little by little, into the area of human activity.

"Who!?"

A middle-aged man dressed as a hunter appeared in front of him, he held the hunting bow in his hand and aimed at this side, and when he saw Sauron's appearance, he immediately withdrew the hunting bow in fear, and then leaned over slightly in respect: "Your Excellency the Wizard." I didn't know it was you, please forgive me for the offense. ”

This is Northland.

This is the territory of the Northland witches, and the status of wizards here is very noble.

Sauron lowered his cloak slightly, glanced at him lightly, and asked, "Where is this?" I've just come here through the mountains. ”

The middle-aged Orion looked at the Ice and Snow Mountains in the distance, the awe in his eyes became more obvious, and he said in a low voice, "This is the territory of River Valley City. From here, a hundred miles to the south, you will reach Riverdale City. ”

Sauron nodded slightly, walked past him, and headed south.

As he walked over, the middle-aged Orion breathed a sigh of relief as if he had collapsed, and then hurried towards the location of the village. It's not a good thing to meet wizards in the wild, wizards are weird-tempered guys, they are very powerful and very dangerous, and if you anger them, you may be killed lightly. He was just an ordinary man, naturally afraid of the mysterious wizard, and now he only wanted to stay away so as not to run into any trouble.

A river appeared in front of Sauron's eyes.

It's rare that it's not frozen, which means that the temperature in the Northland isn't really very low.

There are ferrymen by the river, and the bridges of this era are relatively high-standard alchemy technology, which can only be seen near the city. It is a hassle to make a detour, so fishermen from nearby villages will pick up the ferry business in their spare time to earn a little more food for their children. Everywhere Sauron walked there was a look of awe as a boatman nervously lifted him onto the fishing boat and then carefully rowed towards the opposite side.

Sauron left behind a silver deller's ferry, and set foot on the other side of the river.

You can already see patches of cultivated farmland in front of you, and there are many villages scattered in the distance, and the land in the north is relatively flat and open, and it was once prosperous for a while. Because of the climate, the Northland is only cultivated once a year, and other crops are planted in other seasons to subsidize the family. However, life here is better than in the south, because the north is relatively vast and sparsely populated, and many villagers will hunt during their leisure time.

The law here allows farmers to hunt and pay taxes, unlike in the south.

The corruption of the southern aristocracy was already very severe, and they were almost doing everything possible to increase taxes, and the fishermen had to bear heavy taxes every year.

Sauron saw a city.

The guards stood lazily at the gates of the city, asking civilians who wanted to enter the city, and occasionally extorting some payment. But they did not dare to stop the carriages, which were obviously of high status, and only squeezed a copper or two out of the poor peasants. They didn't dare to stop Sauron when he walked by, wizards were not something these guards dared to provoke casually, even if the captain gave him a look, no one else dared to lean over and ask.

The city is not bustling.

Because there is no trade support, taxes alone are not enough to keep the city thriving, the city walls have obvious signs of deterioration, many buildings are very dilapidated, hundreds of years ago there were a few mines here to maintain, but with the depletion of surface minerals, the city can no longer support deeper mining and maintenance. The underdeveloped roads made trade costly, some ores had to be sold cheaply, and other nearby cities had taken the place of Vale.

Sauron went to the Mercenary Guild.

Due to its proximity to the Ice and Snow Mountains, the mercenary guild's business is quite good, and from time to time adventurers will come over and hunt special monsters according to certain commissions. Wizards require special materials for alchemy, magic devices, and transcription scrolls, many of which come from the corpses of powerful monsters, and some grow in special environments. Sauron didn't stay in the mercenary guild for long, and after a turn, he entered a certain alley, and then under the gaze of three or five ill-intentioned gangsters, he entered a shop pù without a sign.

He needed some information.

Thieves can be found in almost every corner of the world, they are the main members of the lower ranks of the gang, and these thieves may progress to the rank of wanderer, but a large part of them are still ordinary people. Sauron didn't stay inside for long, and walked out after about a quarter of an hour, but when he walked out, he seemed to feel something, and his nose moved slightly.

He seemed to smell something familiar.

A scent.

And it was still a scent that he had carefully memorized, and only then would he leave a distinct impression. There seems to be a woman in front of her, wearing a black hood and a long black dress, with a rather slim back, still gradually walking out of the alley.

Sauron's brows furrowed slightly, and he didn't chase after him directly.

He looked up at the sky, ready to find a place to stay and then head to Goliath's Tower.
