Chapter 1 The Snow-Covered Town

The shrill cold wind blew on the earth, rolling up the snow in the sky, making the world chaotic. Walking on the road, the snow on the ground was more than half a meter, and it was stepped on it and it was extremely difficult to move. There was no one on the road between the villages and towns, only the boundless heavy snow drifting silently. This is the southernmost town of Neville Federation in the southern part of the Yarra Continent. Some people believe that this is also the coldest part of the entire human territory, and it is the limit that ordinary humans can bear. Walking from the Ice Town and then reach the Bailong Autonomous Territory with a territory of less than 500 square kilometers. By passing through the Bailong Autonomous Territory, you can enter the magic forest like the ice and snow country in the myth.

Here, there are only two seasons in a year and thirteen months. During the winter period of up to nine months, it will be covered by ice and snow. Only in the summer of just four months, the true appearance of the earth can be seen. The harsh natural conditions make it difficult to pass here normally, and under normal circumstances there is no need to pass here at all. Therefore, this land that is obviously fertile but difficult to cultivate due to the harsh natural conditions has become a forgotten world in the Neville Federation.

Crossing this forgotten world, it is the Warcraft Forest, which is covered with ice and snow all year round, and is also the second largest forest in the Yara world. The Warcraft Forest covers an area of ​​nearly 400,000 square kilometers, and only four months without snow in a year. The tall and strong coniferous evergreen plants take advantage of these four months to grow and fully enjoy the warmth of the sun. Four months later, the cold comes again, and the green plants are covered with white again, allowing the forest to return to the world of ice and snow. In this country of ice and snow, there are a large number of monsters active. They are all high-level monsters, which are the second most diverse places on the Yara Continent. There are hundreds of thousands of monsters of different sizes. This characteristic is the origin of the name Warcraft Forest.

Most of the monsters in the forest of monsters are ice-attribute monsters that can only live in cold environments, among which the largest base of gold-level monsters can only exist as food. The dominant ones are mainly tens of thousands of legendary monsters, close to the southern part, and even many semi-god monsters live there. Such a climate and environment. Such monster strength makes the forest of monsters a place that most adventurers fear. Although there are a lot of precious materials here and can get a lot of gains, the corresponding level of danger is far higher than that in other places. Many high-level adventurers would rather go to the foggy island overseas than come to this world covered with ice and snow.

However, the most interesting thing in the Warcraft Forest is not these. What is really interesting is the towering mountain range in the middle of the forest. Every peak in the mountains is home to a large number of wild animals, but there are surprisingly no high-level monsters. The high-level monsters instinctively fear this mountain range and refuse to get closer to this place. Their perception is correct, because this mountain range has a name called the Dragon Mountain Range, which is the home of the Guardians. In this towering mountain range, it lives inhabited.

Nearly hundreds of giant dragons, each healthy adult dragon has the strength of the demigod level, and the background of the entire clan is very terrifying. Looking at the history of the Yara world, there are only the three-eyed tribes of the first mythological era. They are in the same strength as the sea tribes of the third and fourth century. However, people are not worried that the dragons will invade other races. The dragon's duty is to protect. This is the setting that the Father God Yara had made when creating the dragon clan. It is determined by their personality traits, and it is almost impossible to make changes.

When there was no global crisis, they had no enterprising spirit or curiosity, and they were always lazy in the hole. A year and thirteen months, I am afraid that nine to ten months were in a sleep state, and the remaining few months were in the process of sleep preparation or awakening. They only went out to hunt once or twice a month when they woke up, and the rest of the time was to enjoy the fun of sleep. They clearly had powerful power, lived a leisurely and contented life, and apart from hunting, they did not know how to use this power to obtain any benefits for themselves. This made other intelligent creatures very confused, and in the end they could only attribute it to Lord Yara's masterpiece. As for whether the real reason was related to the Father God Yara, no one knew it.

However, although most intelligent creatures do not understand, there will always be some strange people when the world is big. These people come from all races, and they admire, envy and even worship the dragons, and then worship the dragons themselves. They desire a leisurely and contented life like the dragons, but they cannot do it in the group of intelligent creatures. Therefore, from when, some people spontaneously gathered in the southernmost part of the Neville Federation, which was left behind.

On the forgotten land, that was the closest place they could reach to the dragons. They began to live here, fighting against the cold, resisting the monsters that occasionally ran out of the forest, and slowly forming a unique society that was self-sufficient and completely different from the outside world. These people longed to live a life like a dragon, and even wanted to become a dragon. As they reproduced from generation to generation, their way of thinking became closer and closer to the dragons, and even their living habits were approaching the dragons.

Year by year, after thousands of years, when the Neville Federation was established hundreds of years ago, the population of this group of people who claimed to be the Dragon Worship Church had grown to more than two thousand people, and formed seven or eight villages, and the social structure had become quite stable. In fact, they did not have any social structure. In fact, they had become completely human-shaped dragons from the inside out. I don’t know why, maybe it was the stimulation of the environment, maybe it was the kind of feedback that their faith had received. From an unknown time, these people actually

They have some dragon characteristics, some have dragon-like vision, some have huge power, and some even have the ability to breathe. Although these abilities cannot be compared with the dragon itself, they are far superior to ordinary creatures. Of course, correspondingly, their hearts are almost the same as those of giant dragons, as they are equally comfortable, lazy, hunting, or planting every year, as long as they accumulate enough food that their family consumes in a year, they will live in peace and calmly in their residence and have no interest in the outside world.

The existence of such a group of people also gave the newborn Neville Federation a headache. Logically speaking, this land has no power to compete with the Federation, and the only borders is the territory of the Federation, so it should be considered part of the Neville Federation. However, on the one hand, there is no possibility of any use in this land, and on the other hand, this group of people is relatively powerful. It is obviously a stupid act to start a war with such a group of people for a territory that is useless. In addition, although the dragons did not do anything to do it.

This group of worshippers made any response or expression, but no one could be sure of what would the dragon tribe react if they really attacked or even eliminated the creatures with the heart of the dragon. Therefore, after considering it for a long time, the Neville Federation finally decided to classify this area as a dominant. The territory belongs to the union, but in fact it is entirely governed by the Dragon Benefactors themselves, or in other words, no one is governed normally at all. So the nominal dominant of the Dragon Benefactors was born.

If people want to enter the Warcraft Forest, they will definitely pass through the small town of Bingjie Town, the southernmost town of Neville, and must pass through the Bailong Autonomous Territory. This is the only path with people. As for other directions, there are only vast snow fields that cannot be seen at the edge. If they get lost in this snow field, it will probably take a few days to become one with the snow field. Only when the ice and snow melt in the next year can they be discovered. For many years, adventurers who want to enter the Warcraft Forest will choose to cross the Ice Town in the short summer. There are very few adventurers who dare to enter the forest in the winter, and often less than one or two in a hundred years. However, this generation of townspeople of the Ice Town are lucky because they are lucky to meet together in their lifetime.

This is noon on December 7th. Although it is the highest temperature of the day. On the usual days, there are always some people coming out of the room to do their own business at this time every day, but no one is willing to do this today. Everyone would rather hide by the warm stove and curse today's hatred weather while roasting the fire.

It snowed today, and it was heavy snow. Large scattered snowflakes fell from the sky, making the temperature outdoors so low that it was unbearable. Not only snow, but also wind. The bitter wind rolled them up on the snowflakes as they fell, and flew over them in the air. The snowflakes carried fine ice and were wrapped in the wind and beaten on the town buildings, making crackling sounds. No one wanted to go outdoors for a long time in such weather. That kind of behavior was simply a destruction of themselves. Even if they felt a little bored at home, people would rather get into the lively tavern and order the strongest glass of potato wine to let the alcohol warm their cold body.

The medium-sized tavern gathers more than fifty townsmen. For this small town with more than 400 people, the number is not small. Their existence makes the tavern full of the aroma of liquor, the aroma of bacon, and the unacceptable rich body odor. Each of the townsmen holds pungent spirits in their hands, and their loud conversations make the tavern noisy.
