In fact, from here on, it can be regarded as an area controlled by dwarves. The Dwarves don't have a kingdom, but they are a collective of races centered on Ironforge...... It is not an exaggeration to call it a dwarven kingdom.

There are quite a few dwarves stationed in the taiga...... But it's all at some key junction or something. Even the dwarves could not have the strength to divide the entire Dragonspine Mountains into military zones...... In particular, there aren't many dwarves who like to stand guard here.

Dwarves, hammers and ores are their romance. More dwarves prefer to dig deep into the Dragon's Back Mountains...... Or crouch next to the huge furnace of Ironforge to forge a wide variety of weapons and armor.

Of course, there are some dwarves who are different from most of their other people and prefer more things...... For example, hunting in dense forests, befriending giant bears or something, or even finding a piece of land to farm......

Of course, farming is mostly a hobby. Most of the dwarves imported their food from other places, but they wouldn't starve to death without it...... Although most of the Dragon's Back Mountains are covered in snow and ice, some places with plants also have plenty of food.

Or even the kind of food that grows on its own and produces a lot of fruit just by dropping the seeds...... Although the taste is a little worse, the starch is filtered out and then made into bread or something, and it has a unique flavor.

Unfortunately, this plant can only grow in the Longji Mountain Range...... Nowhere else can it grow. It can be said that this is also the unique welfare that this world gives to these dwarves.

Otherwise, I am afraid that the stubborn race of dwarves would have been extinct long ago because of the war with humans and other races...... Everything else is fine, and it's a matter of having a full stomach. It is the most basic condition for maintaining the reproduction of a group. Able to meet this condition. Naturally, the dwarves of Ironforge can devote all their energy. It's all on mining those ores and forging weapons and armor......

Of course, there are other hobbies.

It's just that, in addition to the most basic needs, dwarves also need all kinds of enjoyment. Good food, good wine, big songs......

By the way, and gold coins.

That's why the dwarves trade with other nations and powers. And use their own racial abilities as hole cards to maintain neutrality in the war...... Of course, that kind of war to exterminate the continent does not count. In that kind of war, no one can be neutral.

Fortunately, there are not many such wars...... Thousands of years ago, the extinction of antiquity was considered a once, and the dwarves were almost affected...... However, they were clever enough to hide underground, but at the same time they were cut off from the ancient war, and did not know the details of that war...... For them, of course, it's nothing.

Ji Ran and the others are now planning to go to the Iron Furnace Castle. Visit the dwarves.

Originally, I passed by the main road. Everyone can rely on the iron sign that Ji Ran took out to become the dwarf's guests casually...... If you take on the status of the owner of the Amber Distillery, you will become a guest of honor - but many people mention yì, and it is too boring to go by like this.

The forests on the outskirts of the Dragon's Back Mountains also contain many resources that adventurers covet. For example, all kinds of magical beasts that live in the cold zone, as well as medicinal herbs that are difficult to find elsewhere. Needless to say, the Dragonspine Mountains are arguably the most mineral places on the entire continent - otherwise, the dwarves wouldn't have used this as their base.

Take a trip to the Dragon's Back Mountains, don't wander in the forest, go directly to Ironforge Castle...... It always feels like something is missing.

In fact, Ji Ran also had this idea. Adventurers, naturally, have to challenge all kinds of survival limits...... This cold chassis is also one of the lists on the list of challenges for adventurers.

In fact, these forests are not completely controlled by the dwarves - just like the Dragon's Back Mountains, although they are the home of the dwarves, the dwarves dare not say that they control every part of the Dragonspine Mountains - in fact, they only control a small half of the area.

More than not, it's empty, cold, no man's land...... And then there's the chassis of the Warcraft.

The size of the Dragon's Back Mountains is even comparable to the Hardware Mountains, and even larger than the Spectacular Cheng Dù - I heard that on the other side of the Dragon's Back Mountains is an endless sea of ice, and no one has ever reached the end of the ice sea, not even the great magicians of the Golden Rank.

This is not only due to the cold weather, but it is said that there are other deeper reasons, such as the disorder of magical energy, and the fact that no strong person can exert his strength over there...... Of course, this has nothing to do with the present, so it is not considered.

It's already summer, and it's not cold in the forest, it's the breeding season for all kinds of magical beasts, so the forest must be lively. At this time, there will be a lot of gains to be gained by going on an adventure, but it is relatively ...... It's also much more dangerous.

Those demonic beasts are in the breeding period, but they are berserk and abnormal. Once someone approaches their young beasts or eggs or something, they will come up and fight desperately regardless of the difference in strength.

Therefore, there are not as many adventurers who come here as expected. Unless there is a special means of cold resistance - yes, the area where the high-level magical beasts are located is often quite cold - and strong strength, it is better to try your luck on the side of the Endless Mountains.

If there is one place where it is different from other places, it is that there are more dwarven adventurers. You know, dwarves also have a passionate age, and they are also eager to be a brave man or something...... Of course, in the end, most of them still went back to Ironforge to make iron...... But occasionally there will be dwarves like Uncle Mack, who go to the place where humans live to open a tavern and blacksmith shop or something...... Everyone has their own way of living.

Ji Ran and they decided not to go from the regular road, but directly through the forest!

Anyway, it is said that the straight line between two points is the shortest, right? That's a shortcut......

Of course, everyone knows that this shortcut will definitely take longer to walk than the disruptive road.

It's not the first time Ji Ran has come to a place like the taiga. When he first crossed, he landed in the blue pine forest.

To be precise, the Blue Pine Forest is actually a branch of the Dragonspine Mountains, but it is a long way from Ironforge Castle...... It's almost the corner of the Dragon's Back Mountains.

The forest that everyone has entered now is very large, and under normal circumstances, it is called the Dragon's Foot Forest...... The forest at the foot of the Dragon's Back Mountains, it seems natural to call it, there's nothing wrong with it, isn't it?

Also, I heard that the name was given by the dwarves. Concise and profound...... I just don't know if the dragons are happy to hear this name.

But judging from the fact that the dragons haven't come here to make trouble for so many years, they shouldn't care about this little thing.

Most of the Dragon's Foot Forest is coniferous forest, but that doesn't mean there aren't other trees in the forest. At least, in the first few days of entering the forest, Ji Ran found many nut trees.

But unfortunately, this season, these nuts are not ripe...... The only ones that remain are from last year. After escaping the foraging of animals such as squirrels and demonic beasts, he became Ji Ran's trophy again.

"These are all good things, wait for me to make them delicious for you!" Ji Ran likes these things very much. Chestnuts, hazelnuts, pine nuts, walnuts...... All kinds of nuts, but his favorite in the original world.

If he hadn't crossed it, one of his ideals back then was to open a dried fruit shop......

When he was in the city, he often bought nuts and other things to eat, but he never found the sense of accomplishment in the forest. And the quality of these remaining nuts is not bad...... It's much better than the ones sold on the market.

No way, no nut merchant would come to this kind of place to collect...... That's just impatience. And let those adventurers help them gather nuts...... Come on, are those nuts enough for their benefit?

To put it simply, it is unrealistic for people to risk their lives to collect nuts to make money.

So, those nuts were collected in some forests close to human habitation and where there were no powerful magical beasts...... It's not bad, but it's not comparable to the fruit of these ancient trees in the middle of the forest.

There are also a lot of magical beasts in the taiga, but unless they see a particularly rare and rare magical beast, or a magical beast that is too strong to get around, it is too troublesome, otherwise they will hardly fight...... With the strength of the Golden Rank of Rice, bullying these demonic beasts is a bit too much to say.

Moreover, there is no sense of grinding when fighting...... There's a golden step squatting next to it, and even if you don't make a move, this thing will make other people feel relaxed...... Although it wasn't intentional, everyone subconsciously had a sense of security...... This thing, the efficiency of cultivation, has also dropped greatly.

Therefore, after a few days of hard work, a group of people gave up the delusion of practicing in this place and became a simple tour.

Because this instinct to relax is not something that can be restrained lightly...... In a sense, it's close to self-hypnosis. Among the others, no one is good at this.

Then, this became the time for Ji Ran to show off his cooking skills. All kinds of Warcraft, as long as you haven't eaten it, it looks like it's delicious, and it tastes good after eating it...... If it's okay, you'll be hunted back to both ends. Of course, because it is the breeding season, the mother animal that has a baby will not be hunted...... This is common sense for adventurers, and most adventurers will abide by it.

Although it is said that it is basically impossible for Warcraft to be extinct...... There will always be some beasts that feel the magical energy and evolve into magical beasts - but after all, keeping a few seeds can keep the magical beasts thriving.

Adventurers live on monsters, so they can't kill all their targets, right?

In the same way, because of the existence of magical beasts, ordinary animals will hardly enter the eyes of adventurers...... Of course, there are ordinary hunters who make a living by hunting ordinary animals, but they are all in the small mountains and forests in densely populated areas - ordinary hunters who come to such places will become food for the monsters......

After a few days of entering the Dragon's Foot Forest, everyone fell in love with this place. (To be continued......)
