North Pole

A month later, the icy ocean north of the Northland.

Even with the humanoid radar-like happy encounter to lead the way, it still took a month for the group to get here—the world of Golantia...... Or the end of the planet.

The endless ocean of ice connects to the sky at the end, and countless reefs, icebergs and ice formations can be seen as far as the eye can see. For some reason, the seawater, which is not completely frozen, has a temperature of about minus tens of degrees Celsius, and no organism can survive in it except for the cold subspecies.

Standing beside the ice ocean at the end of the world, Sumesmart, as a red dragon, felt a lot of emotion.

“...... We don't have boats!Zaken, go and build a few with the kobolds now. Wait, if you're you, you'll be ready to cross the sea in advance. ”

"What a boat, I don't have the money to buy anything like that. 」

However, Xi Xiangyu's answer disappointed him, but Sumesmart, who was familiar with the Xi Xiang routine, did not get angry at the first time this time, not to mention that if he wanted to vent his anger at Xi Xiang, it would not be able to finish for a while.

"Go on, humans. ”

"Didn't you say we're going to the 'North Pole'? Although we would have gone in the opposite direction if we had passed, we are still some distance away from the northernmost part of the world. ”

As early as thousands of years ago, it was discovered that the world of Corantia was a rotating sphere, and two points on the axis of rotation were marked, so that future generations would have a general guide when visiting or exploring.

They can't find the north in the province.

"The level of professionalism of that legendary adventure team thousands of years ago can be said to be epoch-making, but the lack of research also makes their views somewhat limited. In recent times, your perception of the North Pole has been greatly skewed. As far as I know, more than 4,000 years ago you had a world-wide war, in which the Earth's axis was deflected, so that the positions of the North and South Poles actually changed......

The location of the half-plane teleportation of the ice elemental is determined by the North Pole, so if you want to go to the North Pole, you must not follow the North Pole marked on the map.

"So, where we're going next, maybe this is it. ”

"yes, I don't do useless work. 」

Actually, according to the feeling of the reunion, this is the North Pole, and if you recite a mantra here......

After a sound, an ice-blue halo appeared out of thin air in front of the happy encounter.

"The people who are trying to find the treasure at the end of the world, there are not tens of thousands of people in the thousands of years, but they all believe that crossing the ice behind this ocean is their destination. 」

"But this is the place they really dream of, and that's stupid. Anyway, the demigod is mine. Zaken, send a few scouts to explore the way. ”

Seeing the portal open, Sumesmart summoned the leader of a group of minions he had brought with him.

This is a twilight dragon-bodied kobold warlock dressed in a crimson silk robe, and is considered a relatively strong spellcaster even among Sumesmart's men...... Even stronger than Sumesmart, a rank 4 kobold warlock.

"Okay, my master, I'll send a few scouts in and explore. ”

The twilight kobold named Zaken answered Sumesmart's orders in a fluent dragon language that sounded like a dog's bark, and then ran to the back of the group and began to arrange.

Unlike the kobolds in the impression of happy encounters, the kobolds in the fantasy world are not humanoid creatures with the head of an elder doghead. In general, kobolds are reptile humanoids with a cowardly and brutal tendency, short stature, bony shells, and small tails.

They have scaly skin, and the scales vary in color, ranging from dark brown to reddish-black. They have well-developed teeth, long fingers and toes, and small claws. The kobold's face is somewhat crocodile-like, and when its jaws are open, its mouth is large enough to hold an entire melon. Kobolds also vary in eye color, ranging from ochre to red, but one thing is the same – they are always alertly open. Tiny horn-like bones extend from the top of the brow ridges on either side of their skulls to the back of their skulls, and the longer they grow, the larger and more striking the horns become.

Kobolds are biological relatives of dragons. However, there is one of the most important differences between them, and that is that kobolds are cold-blooded creatures, while dragons are warm-blooded creatures. While kobolds are able to produce a small amount of body heat through eating and exercising, they still rely on their environment to maintain their body temperature.

Sumesmart was disdainful of taking care of them, but Alan was powerless. As cold-blooded creatures that inhabit the Northlands, kobolds have a strong need to make fires for warmth, but in this expedition they have found a new spiritual pillar - a happy encounter that can cast a large number of environmentally damaging spells.

Therefore, their leader Zaken has long been close to the happy encounter. When the scouts were ready, Zaken led them to the Joy Encounter.

"Glad to meet my lord, do you have anything to command?"

Looking at the kobold in front of him, he hesitated for a while.

"The plane characteristics of the half-plane are not necessarily, you better go to Alan and ask for a few buffs called "Avoid Plane Effects", she should be ready. 」

A few hours after the scout team departed, Alan found a happy encounter with him.

"I don't think it's necessary to let the kobolds explore, they probably won't be able to investigate anything, and they will cause some casualties. ”

"My instincts aren't everything, and if there's a trap in there that I can't detect, isn't that dangerous?"

The land of the sealing of the demi-artifact, if you want to say that there is no protection against the design of the prophecy spell, it is impossible to believe it. Therefore, he made a lot of preparations before this adventure, and he was much more cautious in the adventure.

"No, I didn't mean that. If it's a situation where it's nine out of ten, it's not called a risk, and there's no need to wait until all risks are eliminated before acting. ”

"If there is a choice, why should people take risks? It is normal to have a planned action, training, and exploration. 」

"What about the lives of those kobolds, who are much weaker than you, but still forced to take risks. ”

"Ah...... Well......

For Allen's question, I don't know how to answer it now.

"After all, this is someone else's housework, and the kobold race still worships their own family very much, so we can't take care of it too much?"

While Joy is still trying to convince himself, the kobolds' scout team returns with heavy casualties.
