Chapter 189: The Ice City
Hearing this beggar-looking old man call himself, Yue Tian stopped and turned around.
"Is there anything else you can do?" Yue Tian asked the old man.
I saw the old man trembling up to Yue Tian and took out something from his arms.
"Thank you, kind adventurer, for your selfless help to me, the old man has nothing to repay you, and I really can't go away. This is a gadget I picked up on the way to escape, and I would like you to take it. After speaking, the old man handed a small thing to Yue Tian's hand.
Yue Tian took the thing and looked at it, only to see that the old man handed him a small stone with a strange shape.
This small stone is the size of a palm, irregular in shape, and glows with a pale blue light throughout. Yue Tian gently rubbed the surface of the small stone, and immediately felt a delicate texture as soft as jade.
Seeing Yue Tian accept his gadgets, the old man smiled with satisfaction. After glancing at Yue Tian meaningfully, he turned around and walked towards the city gate, muttering to himself as he walked.
"What a good guy......"
Yue Tian identified the attributes of this strange little stone in the control panel, and saw that it was displayed like this.
Item Name: Heart of the Sea Dragon.
Attribute:????
Use:????
Note: The system is bound and cannot be sold, and it will inevitably be dropped when the holder dies.
Looking at this inexplicable attribute introduction, Yue Tian had a sense of déjà vu, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
In such a situation, instead of wasting time and energy trying to recall, it is better to let it go first. Maybe I'll remember it sometimes. This is Yue Tian's consistent practice.
Throwing this small stone called "Sea Dragon Heart" into his backpack, Yue Tian climbed to the top of the Blue Dragon Tower.
Get on the airship. Yue Tian came to the level 28 wild monster area, the Frozen Wasteland.
The Frozen Wasteland is located in the northernmost part of the Qin and Ding Empire, in the extreme cold land, which is bordered by the sea to the east. To the west, the main city in the north, the capital of ice, and to the north is the Great Wall.
The reason why Yue Tian had to travel so far to level up in the Wild Monster Area here was that he naturally had his plans.
In Yue Tian's memory, a month after the opening of the "Demon Attack" expansion pack, the reincarnation world will usher in the first small climax main plot. At that time, the western border and the northern border of the Qin Ding Empire will be invaded by foreign enemies at the same time, and as adventurers of the Qin Ding Empire, players will also receive a variety of tasks to resist the invaders.
As the first main city on the northern border, the main city of the Ice Capital will welcome countless other main city players at that time. Yue Tian hadn't been to the Ice Capital many times in his previous life, so he could only have a general understanding of the situation here. So he wanted to come here first and feel the terrain. Familiarize yourself with the situation.
After a long-distance flight of nearly half an hour, Yue Tian, who had a small shadow on the airship, finally arrived at his destination all the way to the city of ice.
When Yue Tian came down from the airship, he immediately felt the number one feature of the Ice Capital.
Cold! Bitterly cold!
In the northernmost extreme cold land of the Qin and Ding Empire, seven or eight months of the year are snowy and frozen. The Ice Capital is located in the heart of the Extremely Cold Land, and the climate here is even more extreme.
Except for June, July and August, when you can feel a little sunshine, the rest of the year the historic city is shrouded in a gray-white haze sky as far as the eye can see. Snow covers everything.
After Yue Tian sneezed two loud times, he hurriedly took out the cold fur coat that he had already prepared from his backpack.
Putting on this thick and warm fur coat, Yue Tian felt a little warm. Put on the hood of the fur coat and tighten the collar again. Yue Tian walked towards the southern gate of the Ice Capital.
Although the area of the Ice City is not as large as that of the royal city of Shengjing, players will be deeply attracted by its resolute and heavy temperament when they first arrive here.
The gates of the city are hung with ice edges. The NPC guards dressed in thick animal skins are very different from the NPC guards in Wangcheng Shengjing. They were all tall and muscular, and their rough faces, red and blown by the cold wind, were carved with vicissitudes. It can be seen in their resolute eyes. This is a group of "Icewolf" who can terrify the enemy on the battlefield.
The gates and walls of the Ice City are all made of heavy stones, and there are significantly more gun emplacements and magic posts on the walls than in the other main cities.
Look at the patrolling soldiers waiting on the city walls. There was also the muzzle of the black hole hole of the Shenwu cannon on the cannon position on the city wall, and a killing aura suddenly permeated Yue Tian's surroundings.
There are very few players outside the South Gate of the Ice Capital, and there is no "Duty-Free Street" organized by players outside the gate of Shengjing City.
It's freezing on this day, and unless your head is smashed by ice bumps, no player will come to sell equipment outside the city gate in the biting cold wind in order to make two dollars.
Stepping on the creaking white snow, Yue Tian entered the city of the Ice Capital.
Different from the bitter cold outside the city, as soon as Yue Tian stepped into the ice capital city, a warm breath suddenly came to his face.
Yue Tian looked around, and saw that there was no trace of ice and snow in the city. The streets are bustling with players, lined with lush trees and colorful flowers. The climate is warm, just like spring in Shengjing City.
Yue Tian took off the hat of his fur coat and looked up, the entire sky above the main city of the Ice Capital was shrouded in a huge light blue magic enchantment, and the goose feather snow flying outside the magic enchantment turned into a trace of heat and dissipated as soon as it touched the magic enchantment, and it could not fall into the city at all.
When players in the other main cities first arrived in the Ice Capital, they would all be stunned by this strange scenery, but for Yue Tian, the "old fritter" who had been in the reincarnation world for many years in his previous life, he was already not surprised.
In his previous life, Yue Tian had consulted the geographical information of the Ice Capital on the official forum of reincarnation. The reason why the climate in the Ice Capital is warm in spring is that there are a large number of hot springs underground, and these hot springs with different temperatures are mixed with hot steam gushing all year round, which not only solves the heating problem of the main city of the Ice Capital, but also attracts a large number of players from other main cities to come here to enjoy the hot spring bath. With this abundant geothermal resources, the inside and outside of the city of the ice capital have naturally become two heavens.
Putting the heavy fur coat into his backpack, Yue Tian suddenly felt light. To be honest, if he wore this fur coat to fight in the field, his body and movement speed would definitely be greatly affected. Therefore, before Yue Tian went to the Frozen Wasteland to level up, he still needed to do some preparations.
For example, exchange for a little bit of the Ice City's special cold equipment.
To change equipment, it is natural to go to the stalls set up by the players themselves. When given the choice, no player would want to go to the system store and be slaughtered.
The "Duty-Free Street" in the Ice Capital is in the slums west of the city, where the small streets and alleys that extend in all directions are as dense as cobwebs, and if you are a newcomer, you will definitely not find it. Although Yue Tian had been to the Ice Capital less often in his previous life, a place like the "Duty-Free Street" where he could find good things, Yue Tian would visit any main city as soon as he went.
No, Yue Tian went all the way to the west, and came to the "duty-free street" in the cold and ice capital after turning around three or two times.
I saw that on a small street about ten meters wide and two or three hundred meters long, the players were bustling and rubbing shoulders one after another. The streets are lined with all kinds of stalls, some of the stall owners and players are enthusiastically introducing their products to customers, some are shouting loudly, and some stall owners are just sitting quietly against the wall waiting for customers to come to the door.
Yue Tian walked slowly along the side street with interest, in addition to buying a set of equipment with a magical cold protection function, he also wanted to see if he could easily "pick up the leak".
"Picking up leaks" is a kind of joking name for players in the reincarnation world to find the best things in the player's stall. If players want to pick up the leaks, in addition to their keen eyes and deep discernment ability, they need a little bit of luck.
As for whether he could "pick up the leaks" in the duty-free street of the Ice Capital, Yue Tian didn't have much hope.
Picking up this kind of luck is hard to come by.
Yue Tian walked around from stall to stall, and most of the things that caught his eye were some ordinary local goods, not to mention picking them up, and he didn't even see a few kinds of magic cold equipment that he needed now.
The two or three hundred meters long street has already walked most of the way, and Yue Tian is a little excited. He couldn't help but sigh to himself.
"Alas...... I didn't expect that the duty-free street in this cold city was full of stalls, and there wasn't even a thing that could catch your eye......"
At this moment, a voice came from the stall next to Yue Tian.
"Friend, you're going too far, aren't you? Although our Ice Capital is located in an extremely cold place, there are still a few good things. (To be continued......)
PS: PS: There is one more chapter update before 12 o'clock. Running naked next week, I need a lot of support from everyone, and I recommend it, a monthly pass or something.
