The white airship is like a long fish, and the layers of sails on both sides are like fish fins, moving in the sky and speeding up.
Although it looks unassuming, this airship is a rare masterpiece that can travel ultra-long distances. There are only a few airships in the entire Emerald Forest that can do this.
Passing through the green and lush forest, the airship headed north. The air became colder and colder, and the outer shell of the airship was also covered with a thick layer of frost, making it slightly bulkier.
After writing today's reply, Lorraine Hill tied the paper tube to the Demoiselle Eagle's leg on the table, stroked the guy a few times, fed it some food, and then gradually walked out of the room while supporting it with his arms.
Walking through the steel fence-like corridor floor, there was a slight echo of footsteps, and then the girl pushed open the closed iron door and came to the windswept deck.
Looking at the thousands of miles of snow-covered mountains and rivers below, Lorraine Hill sighed at the magnificence of the world, and let the demoiselle-feathered eagle fly in his hand to let it send the letter back.
Watching the brown-gray wings spread out in the snow-white world and then go away, Lorraine Hill also turned his attention to the magnificent mountains and rivers descending from the airship.
This is the sky above the northern border, and now the cold disaster is raging across the land.
Pieces of farmland have long been covered with snow, and the forests in the mountains are also covered with thick snow. Only a little dark color can be seen below.
The snow-covered land was completely empty, with no animal activity and no sign of people. Even if there were occasional traces of villages, they were already silent, submerged in snowflakes and lifeless.
The people here may have moved away long ago, Lorraine Hill thought to himself.
The impact of the cold disaster is not only on the Emerald Forest, but also on the northern border. Now she has even received some news from Clancia. It is said that the Black Rock area has also been gradually affected. Fortunately, Clancia now has a vast land.
, there is sufficient food to deal with small-area crises.
However, we cannot continue like this. If the cold disaster continues to spread, a large number of deaths will come unstoppably. When the order collapses, the population is expected to decrease significantly.
I hope that the source and cause of the cold disaster can be investigated this time. If it really cannot be solved, then she will let Keti come back to the world in five years and use absolute power to quell this disaster.
But that would probably accelerate the arrival of the Chaos Disaster, greatly disrupt the climate of today's world, and bring about many unknown chain reactions. She didn't want to go to this step if it wasn't necessary.
After the internal integration of the elves is resolved this time, the problems within the empire seem to be on the way to being resolved. With the elves as buffers and leaders, some things will gradually become easier.
The girl was still thinking about her future arrangements when a sound of brisk footsteps sounded behind her, followed by a hand patting her shoulder.
"What are you thinking about, Jia Lan." Xia Li's brisk voice sounded.
This time Westena needed to take charge of the overall situation in the forest, so it was Charlie who accompanied her. Of course, she was accompanied by many strong men from the elves, including even a Sequence 7 and a Sequence 8.
"It's nothing, just making daily plans." The girl shook her head and raised her head. She now has more and more identities and responsibilities, and the things she needs to consider are no longer as simple as before.
"Oh... you're so serious." Charlie seemed a little dissatisfied with Lorraine Hill like this.
"It's so tiring to look at her thinking so much all the time." She wanted to rub the girl's cheek, but Lorraine Hill dodged it.
"You're actually hiding." Charlie put her hands on Lorraine Hill's shoulders, trying to catch this guy who was becoming less and less cute recently, but Lorraine Hill smiled and got out of the way.
After a while of fun, the two stopped temporarily.
"Okay, stop making trouble. Are you bored after staying in the airship for a long time?" Lorraine Hill looked at Charlie in front of him.
"Yes, there are many seniors and big shots on the ship. I can't offend you too much. There are not many people of the same age and there are few topics to talk about. It feels so boring." As she said that, Charlie grabbed the cold white fence and looked down.
In that quiet world where white snow accumulates, chestnut-gold hair dances in the snow particles and wind, brushing against the shoulders from time to time.
"Tell me something interesting. Have you ever heard of the ice elf Jia Lan?" Charlie turned her head.
"I have indeed seen ice elves, but that is a special case, and I cannot say that I fully understand them." The girl thought of the ghost of the ice elf princess.
"Hey, have you seen anything else? Can you tell me about it?" Charlie became curious.
"Well..." Lorraine Hill said in a long tone, then turned around and looked in the direction behind Charlie.
"Let our Princess Atesi explain it to you." She said and blinked.
"Leave it to me, Jia Lan has become cunning and lazy." An elf girl wearing a white gold lace dress came over, it was the current elf princess Aitesi, and in
Not far behind her, there was an elf with long snow-blue hair.
Her beautiful golden hair was tied into a gorgeous single ponytail. Etesi was wearing a tight-fitting top and a light green and white short skirt, revealing her long, round legs. She was dressed in a light and beautiful outfit.
As the representative of the forest elves accompanying this trip and an important combat force in the team, Her Royal Highness the Princess naturally attracted a lot of attention, but what no one expected was that she seemed to be particularly familiar with this girl from the outside world.
Arriving next to Lorraine Hill, Artisi leaned over the railing and looked at the world below, and then started talking to the two people beside her.
"Although the ice elves and the forest elves are both from the elven clan, after the end of the first era, the exchanges gradually became less and less. Now most of the same clan feel a little strange." When Etesi said, the snow blue
The long-haired elf also stood beside her. This was Irene, the ice elf that Lorraine Hill met in the Eastern Continent.
Irene and Atesi were very close, but what Lorraine Hill didn't expect was that Irene would come with them this time, because she heard when she was in the Eastern Continent that Irene seemed to be escaping from her family's pursuit and didn't want to go back.
"But, if you want to ask about the ice elves, I do know a lot about it, right, Irene." Etesi said, and then she and Charlie introduced the friend next to her.
Looking at the ice elf sister with a dignified figure and appearance, Charlie was a little surprised. She didn't expect that there were ice elves on this ship.
Compared to the free-spirited and relaxed elf princess Etesi, Irene is much more stable. Her temperament can be said to be quite in line with everyone's expectations of a noble lady. She has perfect etiquette and a quiet and elegant temperament. It is difficult to imagine that this ice elf would run away rebelliously.
The family came to live in a distant foreign country.
"Hello, just call me Irene." She tilted her head slightly and introduced herself briefly.
"Actually, the life of the ice elves is not as complicated as everyone thinks, or it is very regular and monotonous." After sorting out his words, the ice elf began to talk about his past life.
"The northern continent is actually very small, and its area is not even half of the eastern border of the empire." Among the four realms of the empire, the eastern border is the smallest, only about two-thirds of the southern border.
"Since I can remember, it has never rained there. There are only frost particles flying from time to time. It can't even be called snow..." With the ice elf's narration, a distant and quiet country slowly appeared in everyone's minds.
Expand.
There are no changing seasons on the continent. The northern continent only has two seasons: light season and shadow season. What distinguishes the seasons are polar day and polar night. Ice elves will cultivate crops in the light season. As an elven clan, even if they are not as good as the forest elves,
, but it can still be done to produce enough food.
Most outdoor activities and work will be completed during the light season. During the shadow season, children will go to school and adults will focus on practice or do some indoor work, such as making handicrafts and writing.
Poems and scrolls, organizing books and knowledge, participating in exchange gatherings, etc.
The population of ice elves is not large. It has been roughly maintained at a stable number and will not increase significantly. The society is also very stable.
As the rulers are the three major duke families, followed by some highly respected people among the ice elves. Together, these people form the Ice Palace Court, which handles all matters of the northern continent.
"The most important festival of the year is the Luminous Festival at the end of the year. It happens to be about two-thirds of the way through the film season. After spending the long polar night, everyone will be a little depressed, but this festival will get a good harvest.
Release and relax, and then look forward to the arrival of the light season.”
"Although I personally feel that the northern continent is not beautiful, some travelers who come here seem to be surprised and happy. In some southern ports, you can see many guests from the east." Irene stroked the snow on her shoulders.
Blue hair, speaking slowly.
"It's just beautiful." Atesi interrupted Irene's disparagement of her hometown.
"Sure enough, it is more appropriate to let outsiders introduce it. If you have been exposed to many things since childhood, you will feel that they are not novel at all, but in fact they are very rare and rare things." Etesi grabbed the topic.
"The ice elves are rich in all kinds of beautiful crystal ornaments, many of which are used in the Eastern palaces. There are also many people who are good at painting. In recent hundreds of years, silkworm breeding technology has been introduced from the Plantagenet Dynasty. Today, it is a specialty
The 'Snow Smoke Sha' is very popular in the East."
"In addition, on the luminous sea during the shadow season, you can see the curtain of auroras hanging from the sky, rolling and changing slowly. This is a beautiful scenery that many tourists will marvel at throughout their lives. Many people go to the northern continent just to see this.
of."
Then, Etesi praised many things about the ice elves again, making Lorand Hill and Charlie look forward to the next journey, until Irene finally interrupted Etesi's words.
"Having said all that, has Atesi been to the Northern Continent?" Irene looked at her friend with blue smoke-like eyes.
"Uh, well... isn't that what we are going to do this time?" Etesi turned her head slightly at this time, not daring to look at Irene's burning eyes.
"Humph." Although she was a little dissatisfied with Etesi's denial of her evaluation of her hometown, Irene also knew that Etesi was doing this out of defense for herself.
Seeing the ice elf girl slowly fall into a quiet state again, Lorraine Hill finally asked the question that she had been curious about for a long time.
"Why did sister Eileen leave her hometown?"
"This, I'm afraid it's going to be a long story again."
"So, let's wait until next time." The ice elf elder sister closed one eye slightly and put her finger in front of her lips, pretending to be a mysterious refusal.
Sure enough, it is not easy for these ice elves to talk about their thoughts. Lorraine Hill thought of Yi Xue's usually quiet and silent appearance.
This time she also called Yi Xue on board. The airship would stop for a few days while it was doing final replenishment and inspection at the northern port, and Yi Xue would also arrive to join her at that time.
I don’t know what this Ice Elf from the First Era would think when he sees his tribe again.
