Lin Luo did not put pressure on Ge'an, but waited for him to finish eating and his face became energetic before speaking:
"Have you been predicting tomorrow's itinerary just now?"
Ge'an's face darkened, he nodded and said:
"Yes, after all, I am a shaman... but my magic power is too weak. I can only weakly sense the difficulties and dangers ahead, but I don't know where the dangers are..."
Lin Luo slightly condensed his voice and said:
"You are saying that it will be dangerous for us to enter the middle of Freljord. Do you have any idea?"
Ge An sighed softly, nodded and said:
"I have a clue, but I don't know where the real danger lies. The force of nature has given me instructions. Our road ahead will always be smooth until we arrive at Lakstaq. A terrible enemy will appear, and we will be attacked like never before.
of obstruction!"
Lin Luo narrowed his eyes:
"Are you referring to the ice demons? Or those powerful tribes, or more mysterious and unknown enemies?"
Ge An smiled bitterly and said:
"If I could know... would I still have to look sad?"
Although Ge'an didn't look happy, Lin Luo still received the game prompt.
[Tip: You have successfully made Ge An change his impression of you through communication, and his favorability towards you has been increased to: Friendly. 】
"By the way, Lin, the area in the middle of Freljord is different from here. The cold there is more than twice as cruel as here!"
When Ge An said this, his expression suddenly became serious:
"Our traveling speed will definitely slow down, and our physical energy and food consumption will inevitably increase. The most terrifying thing is that there are ten powerful tribes in Freljord living there, and each tribe is much stronger than your adventurer tribe!"
[Tip: You have obtained relevant information about central Freljord, and your Freljord prestige has increased by: 10 points.]
Linluo's current Freljord prestige is actually not much, only 70 points.
After all, this area is an upgrade area that starts at level 40. It is not that difficult to gain prestige, but the role of prestige points is not that great either.
As for the top ten tribes of Freljord mentioned by G'an.
Others may not know, but Lin Luo really knew about it in advance.
He found many lifestyle collectors and bards through his connections with heroes. Among them was a lifestyle player with the talent of 'Weather Child'. His profession was both a collector and a geographer. The effect of his talent
It has no combat effectiveness, but it has a very abnormal effect.
[SS-level talent (life department): Son of the Weather]
[Talent description: People with this talent can blend into any harsh environment without injury, including but not limited to swamps, glaciers, oceans, deserts, deep mountains... In this environment, you will not be subject to any harsh natural oppression, and when you are in
In this environment, your energy value will increase ten times, your health value will increase ten times, and you will not be attacked by any neutral creatures.】
This talent is among the top talents among life players, and that person is also the top elite among life players in the Legion of Heroes.
That player couldn't wait to go to Freljord when the third version was released.
For any player, the horror of this ancient ice field is enough to be daunting, but he is really not afraid of leaving at will, and he actually passed through the southern part of Freljord on his own and successfully came to Freljord.
Central Raeljord!
Yes, this is the awesomeness of life players.
Being alone and leaving at will is also the charm of life players.
So strictly speaking, this guy is the first player in the Chinese server to set foot in the middle of Freljord.
Although he later sadly had to hang back to the legion's resurrection point due to exhaustion of energy and a rare heavy snowstorm, everything he recorded along the way was reported to the legion, and Lin Luo had already read this information carefully.
To be precise, the southern part of Freljord is relatively sparsely populated, and the only powerful tribe living here is the Troll Kingdom tribe.
But things are different in the middle of the Freljord!
As long as you cross the central-south dividing line, a brand new Freljord will appear in the eyes of players.
Although the environment there is harsh, there are ten extremely powerful human tribes living there, known as the 'Top Ten Tribes of Freljord'.
But by the way.
These top ten tribes do not include the Avarosan tribe.
Because the truth of the matter is that these top ten tribes are all affiliated tribes of the Avarosa tribe and can be regarded as subordinates.
Lin Luo opened the game panel and saw the screenshot of the game that he had marked before. It was an aerial view of Avarosa and the top ten tribes. It was the screenshot of the game specially made by the Weathering With You player.
From the overhead view, you can see that the terrain in the middle of Freljord is wider, and the dark blue color means that the climate here is more cruel and cold.
But it's different from southern Freljord.
In the middle of the vast ice sheet, many architectural signs appear more clearly defined.
In the absolute center of the ice sheet, there is a huge basin-like tribe, which is light green mixed with dark blue, which means that it is a vibrant place that exists in the ice sheet.
This bit of green looks extremely dazzling among all the deep blue ice fields, just like a natural jade inlaid in the center of a piece of blue silk.
Yes, this is exactly the destination Lin Luo is going to.
——Freljord Sanctuary, Rakstark!
In addition, there are ten dark blue cross-marks of swords and axes on the ice fields surrounding Lakstaq, scattered like stars around the sanctuary of Laxtak, vaguely showing an attitude of protection, pilgrimage, and worship.
around it.
"This is the map of the central part of Freljord. The Rakstak Sanctuary is in the center, and the ten powerful tribes are guarding it on all sides."
Lin Luo drew a sketch of this terrain on the ground using tree branches.
Ge'an knew the geography of Freljord better than ordinary people. He looked at Lin Luo in surprise:
"Have you been to Larkstadt?"
Lin Luo shook his head:
"A friend has been there, and I heard what he said."
At this time, I have to mention the Freljord prestige points obtained previously.
This prestige point is useless in the southern region. It must go to the center of Freljord to be effective among the top ten tribes.
According to that life player.
The ten strongest tribes in central Freljord belong to the neutral camp and will not show hostility to players, but they will not have good intentions either.
Each of the top ten tribes occupies a large area, equivalent to a medium-sized main city. Players who want to move and settle in it must have enough Freljord prestige points, otherwise they will not even be qualified to enter the tribe.
The higher the player's prestige points, the higher the goodwill received from the top ten tribes.
This is the absolute truth of this cruel snowfield, power is supreme!
And the power here is different from the power in Noxus.
The power of the latter can be summed up in many ways, including wisdom, talent, strategy, force, etc...
The power of the Freljord is absolute force.
Those who possess martial arts can gain worship, following and prestige, and can enter and exit the top ten tribes to gain their friendship and recognition.
And most importantly...
"To enter Rakstaq, you must pass the test of the ten strongest tribes. This has been the rule of Avarosa since ancient times."
Gian seems to know these secrets very well.
The central part of the Freljord is an ice plain that covers 70% of the entire Freljord. It is extremely vast and contains countless tribes.
The most powerful of these tribes are the 'Avarosa' tribe and the 'Winter's Claw' tribe.
Their leaders are none other than War Mother Ashe and War Mother Sejuani.
These are two matrilineal tribes that have been inherited for thousands of years and possess terrifying power.
Among them, the Avarosa tribe lives in the Raxtak Holy Land all year round and is the strongest tribe in the central Freljord today.
The Winter's Claw tribe migrates every year, and they are equally powerful. In order to compete with the dominance of the Avarosa tribe in recent years, they have even activated ancient sacrificial magic and the legendary demigod Volibear who symbolizes destruction and thunderstorms.
Make a deal.
Therefore, although the Winter's Claw tribe is not guarded by the top ten tribes, it still has powerful allies, that is, the legendary Bear Tribe!
"The Winter's Claw tribe migrates erratically every year, and its specific location cannot be confirmed, but their power is terrifying, especially the bear tribe with them. I don't know if the crisis I predicted comes from this...
But there is a possibility, a very small possibility... Then we would be doomed!"
When Ge An said this, he began to show a trembling fear.
This was the first time Lin Luo saw him showing such fear.
Lin Luo probably knew about the so-called bear people, but it would be a long story and would involve a very ancient origin.
The term Ursine sounds like a half-human, half-bear creature, but in fact it is not.
The bear here is completely different from the bear in normal understanding. It is not an innate creature, but a monster that has been transformed!
These so-called bear people were completely normal humans before they became bear people.
It's just that these humans believe in a cruel and wreaking demigod.
It is Volibear, another elemental demigod of the Freljord, the immortal thunderbolt who controls thunder and killing.
Freljord is a land of old gods, where three major human Iceborn tribes live. However, in a place where these human tribes cannot detect, the surviving ancient demigods are quietly silent in a place where no one notices.
.
This immortal mad thunder Volibear is the same level of demigod as the molten god Ornn mentioned before, and they are a pair of demigod brothers.
Spirits cannot be understood by ordinary beings.
Ornn's life form is that of a goat god, and Volibear's life form is that of a bear god, but they are indeed brothers.
Every god that exists in the Freljord has a nearly infinite lifespan. During this infinite lifespan, they accumulate generations of believers and followers over time, and they each give themselves names.
The followers of Ornn, the god of molten fire, call themselves the "furnace family", because Ornn is the oldest divine craftsman in Runeterra, and his followers are also rare and famous blacksmiths in the world, so the "furnace family" are very rare and powerful existences.
.
The followers of Volibear, the Immortal Crazy Thunder, are the Ursines mentioned before. These Ursines were actually normal humans, but after they followed and believed in Volibear, the power of destruction and ravages changed them.
Unlike the Furnace family, the Furnace family believes in Orn's power of self-denial and gentleness, and imparts casting knowledge and power that the believers can accept.
The Ursines are the complete opposite. The believers will be transformed by Volibear without sparing any effort, instilling the power and belief that symbolizes destruction into the believers.
Therefore, after the bear tribe completely completes the sacrifice, they will complete the transformation from humans to bear men.
The Ursines blessed by Volibear have terrifying power and can transmit Volibear's will at any time, but they will also lose their will and human limits and become extremely terrifying monsters.
"You mean...we are likely to encounter the Ursine tribe during this trip?"
Lin Luo frowned and asked.
There is a reason why he said this. The central part of Freljord is balanced by the Winter's Claw and the Avarosan Horde.
Avarosa's strength is about 60% due to its large numbers of people, unity, and geographical advantages.
The Winter's Claws have fewer people, but they are brave and good at fighting. The most important thing is that they reached a deal with Volibear and became allies with the terrifying Ursine tribe. The purpose is naturally to compete with the Avarosa tribe.
The two tribes have been confronting each other over the years, and even if there are occasional battles, it is only a small-scale friction. However, as the environment becomes increasingly harsh during the annual Ice and Snow Festival, the Winter's Claw tribe, which needs to migrate every year, can no longer tolerate the cruel ice fields.
It is said that they are ready to attack Avarosa.
Although this is just a rumor, the relationship between the two tribes is indeed gradually becoming tense.
"Yes, if we want to go to Rakstaq Sanctuary, we must first pass the test of the top ten tribes. This is not only for us, but also for all the Freljord tribes. We may also encounter the Winter's Claw, then
That’s what I’m worried about!”
Gian said this.
Rakstak Sanctuary is a place of pilgrimage for the Freljord, and many Freljordians want to join it and become a part of the Avarosan Tribe.
But even if Avarosa is united again, they cannot accept the entire Freljord indefinitely.
So this is a rule, not only for players, but also for all Freljord tribes.
"Do you know anything about the so-called top ten tribes?"
Lin Luo suddenly asked this question.
Gian shrugged:
"To tell you the truth...I have never been to the central Freljord since I was a child."
Lin Luo raised his head and glanced at the night sky, where a deep cold wind was howling.
There was still a long time before dawn, and during this period they had to recuperate their energy. Starting tomorrow, they would actually enter the middle of Freljord.
From that time on.
Lin Luo's journey to Freljord has officially begun!
…
Lin Luo went online on time the next morning.
There are no clouds in the Freljord today.
This is because the closer you get to the center of the Freljord, the higher the terrain becomes.
The sky is as clear as a drop of blue tear, which may drip down at any time. It is beautiful but also full of dangers.
"I can only send you here, and can't go any further."
Trundle and a group of troll warriors sent the Winter Solstice Alliance people and Lin Luo here, and they stopped moving forward very vigilantly, as if they were afraid of something.
Lin Luo glanced at him. In his opinion, the Troll Kingdom tribe was extremely powerful, especially with legendary heroes like Trundle.
"Don't look at me. I was exiled by the Frost Witch. From now on, I am not allowed to set foot in the middle of Freljord."
Trundle did not hide anything, but told the reason frankly.
Lin Luo said in surprise:
"You will be so obedient?"
Trolls in his impression meant cunning, and even the simple-looking trolls were very sinister. He did not believe that Trundle, the king of trolls, had any spirit of contract.
"Of course, I will always obey the orders of the Frost Witch."
Trundle didn't explain why, he just said this.
Lin Luo only knew that this guy was indeed the third tribe of Freljord living in the far north a long time ago. The Frost Guard, who was also the strongest tribe, was seated there, but now he didn't know why he was rushed there.
The south is coming.
"This guy was raised by the Frost Witch... The ice blood in his body seems to be related to the Frost Witch. The person he fears most is the mysterious witch."
Gragas lowered his voice and told Lin Luo as if gossiping.
Lin Luo suddenly realized that the powerful witch guarding the frost was a person who survived from ancient times to the present.
She used to be a human, but now she is more like a god-like existence. The ice blood in her body has spread all over her body, almost becoming the most powerful existence among the Freljord demigods.
But Lin Luo didn't want to think so much.
The Frost Witch lives in the far north of Freljord, which is further away than the central part of Freljord, and the environment there is also harsher.
What Lin Luo is thinking about now is how to enter the Holy Land of Lakstaq. If it is too far away, we should wait until later.
"Luo Shen, the tribe's scouts have news. Two thousand meters ahead is the central boundary of Freljord. There is good news and bad news."
Hero Anton suddenly sent a private message to Lin Luo.
Lin Luo said:
"Let me tell you the good news first."
"The good news is that the experience bonus in the middle part of Freljord is even higher, reaching 200%, and the game resource explosion rate is also 200%. Let's level up there and get twice the result with half the effort!"
"Where's the bad news?"
Hero Anton thought for a moment:
"You should have guessed the bad news. There are entry conditions in the middle of Freljord, which requires 100 points of cold resistance."
Lin Luo's guess was indeed correct. Since he entered Freljord before, many achievements have added cold resistance. This attribute must be very important.
He now has 120 cold resistance points, fully meeting the entry requirements.
"Do all players in your tribe meet the standards?"
Lin Luo asked.
"Of course, we have been developing in Freljord for more than a month. The accumulation of many small achievements has already reached the standard. This is a good thing."
Lin Luo nodded and said nothing, but his thoughts flew further.
If you want to enter the middle of Freljord, you need a higher cold resistance value.
So wouldn’t going to the northern part of Freljord require more cold resistance?
The requirements of this Ice and Snow Festival mission require the Freljord warriors to go to the end of the world in the far north to see Ornn. Doesn't this mean that he must frantically collect equipment, props and equipment that increase the cold resistance value?
Achievement?
Lin Luo shook his head and didn't think about it. There is still a long way to go. The story has just begun. Just do your best now.
"The scouts ahead have sent a message. The weather is very good today. Let's set off directly!"
Hero Anton said this excitedly, leading the men of the Winter Solstice Alliance towards the middle of Freljord.
The scenery today is indeed very good.
The wind and snow during the day were not heavy, and a group of adventurers from the Winter Solstice Alliance were advancing in the wind and snow, with Lin Luo, Silas and others at the rear of the team.
"Lin, what is your relationship with this adventurer tribe?"
Silas looked at the tribe from a short distance and asked Lin Luo curiously.
"It's nothing, we're just friends."
Lin Luo once said that this kind of thing cannot be explained to an NPC, even if the other party is extremely intelligent.
"Central Freljord is not comparable to the south. It is full of dangers and their abilities are not enough to settle here. Have you ever thought about what they would do if they died here?"
Silas asked.
In fact, this is indeed the case. It is almost impossible for the Winter Solstice Alliance with an average level of 37 to survive in the level 50 upgrade zone. The difficulty can be said to be extremely high.
But there are some things that go without saying. Lin Luo knew that when Hero Anton said that to him, he knew better than anyone else that he could not possibly not know the danger of the Winter Solstice Alliance here.
But he still spoke. He chose the path himself. Lin Luo agreed to help him at the critical moment, which was an act of kindness.
If the Winter Solstice Alliance is really capable and can gain a foothold in a place like this and even become prosperous, it is because of its own strength, and the Parliamentary Alliance is the beneficiary, which means that the power in the alliance has developed to Frey
Erzhuode is the best among the best.
"They should know what they are doing, and never underestimate adventurers. They have resilience that you can't imagine."
Lin Luo said to Silas.
Yes, players are players after all, and players can create too many miracles.
While they were talking, everyone had already reached the dividing line in the middle of Freljord.
Ahead is a barrier-like light curtain, composed of endless ice-blue wind and snow, with the eye-catching ice-blue region name very high in the sky:
——Central Freljord!
Of course, these scenes only appear in the eyes of players. In the eyes of Silas and others, it is just that the wind and snow ahead are bigger.
Lin Luo raised his feet and stepped into the freezing rain, frost and snow. He felt that the ice and snow under his feet was thicker. The biting cold could not be resisted through the plush coat. Even if the pain level was lowered, the extreme cold still made Lin Luo shiver.
I couldn't help but tighten my neck.
[Hint: You have arrived in the middle of Freljord!]
[Tip: You have obtained the achievement: "Further Extreme Cold Challenger"! 】
[You have obtained achievement reward 1: cold resistance value 30 points! 】
[You have obtained achievement reward 2: Harusu’s plush coat × 1, please check it in your backpack.]
These rewards are available to players who enter central Freljord.
Cold resistance is a very important attribute.
The higher the player's cold resistance value, the less energy they will consume in the ice and snow, they can walk further in the same time, and the ice damage they receive will be reduced.
Lin Luo now has 150 cold resistance points, but when he asked the hero Anton, the latter already had almost 300 cold resistance points.
This guy has grown up in the Freljord for a month and it's really not surprising. In a way, he is much meatier than Linluo, because most of the monsters here deal ice-type damage. The higher the cold resistance value, the lower the ice-type damage taken.
It is also an attribute that increases combat ability.
This chapter has been completed!
