In the deepest part of the Arctic snowfield, even in July, the sky and the earth are still covered with white snow. The howling wind and the roaring frost and snow seemed to be able to destroy everything in the world. Master Bobak, wearing only a pair of animal-skin shorts and with his upper body bare, stood alone on the cliff, his long green hair and beard fluttering in the frosty wind. He had just finished a call with Leo, with a hint of a smile on his face. "humane……" A thousand years ago, Chisel said the same thing, but unfortunately in the end, he had become accustomed to the dangers of the world and the complexity of human nature, and finally chose to give up treatment. But Bobak felt that the world could still try to save it. Under the cliff in front of him, the remains of a huge ice dragon lay on the ground, with the bone spurs on its back almost reaching the cliff which was more than ten meters high. Its head was strangely twisted, its neck was broken, and the soul fire in its head had been extinguished. The Frost Dragon is an evil creature that the Undead Lord transformed using the corpse of a dragon over decades. It has the power to control death and frost and is even more powerful than when it was alive.
Each frost dragon is harder to kill than a living dragon. After all, they had already lost their lives. Behind the corpse of the frost dragon was an army of tens of thousands of undead, almost filling the entire ice field. Tauren, bear men, boar men, gnolls, orcs, and even some humans. There are also large beasts such as snow bears, saber-toothed tigers, and direwolves. Most of their bodies had not yet decayed, and some only had broken skin, like mummies with their skin half peeled off. In some cases, half of the muscles and all the internal organs have disappeared, leaving the gums and nostrils exposed. There were also several frost dragons circling in the blizzard behind them. These dead things have long stopped breathing. In their skulls burned a cold soul fire, which gushed out from their empty eye sockets. These empty eye sockets, emitting cold blue fire, all face south. But Bobak stood on the cliff, blocking their way south. Looking at the death army that vowed to destroy all living things, after a brief hesitation and reorganization, it continued to surge towards him. Bobak slowly clenched his fist. "He's given up, but I haven't." … Leo took Freya and set out on the journey home without stopping. Regarding the courtyard and Lord Chisel, Bobak's narration and Denise's popular science were both somewhat vague. But during the casual chat on the road, Leo discovered that Freya actually knew a lot.
Don't be fooled by her seemingly low IQ, her family background and teachers are among the best in the continent, and her actual age is no younger than the elders of the human race. Even if you just listen to bedtime stories, you will know more about ancient history than most people. During the chat, Leo roughly learned that more than a thousand years ago, the elf archdruid Chis'El established the Courtyard of the City Under the Mountain, determined to unify all races and establish an equal and harmonious society. In order to meet food needs, he cultivated potato varieties that were only found in the tropical southern regions into antler cassava that was suitable for survival in the north. Wheat seeds were improved many times so that they could produce seeds in the cold northern region. In order to solve the problem of racial communication, he simplified the Elvish language and created a universal language. The official language used by the Orlantis Empire now is the world's common language, which is also one of the foundations of the unification of the empire. In order to ease racial conflicts, he formulated the Basic Law of All Races and the Conference of Lords of the Midgard. The legal concept of the Basic Law of All Races has a far-reaching influence on all races, and the Lords' Assembly system has been completely inherited by the Orcs and the Northerners. Unfortunately, there has never been a perfect social system in the world. There will always be conflicts and confrontations between races, and class differentiation is inevitable. Relying on the assistance provided by the elves, the growing orcs were no longer satisfied with the northern prairie. They began to encroach on the land of other races, gradually occupied the entire north bank of the Anzeno River, and enslaved most races. So in the end, Lord Chisel's dream was shattered. In the war launched by the orcs, he was disheartened and chose to hide back in Trahil to sleep. This action was ridiculed by later human historians and literati, and he was belittled in various ways in major history books and novels. But Freya said that Chisel is still recognized as one of the greatest elves within the elves. Because he fulfilled the most common dream of elves - going out to play, and also made the choice that elves most hoped for - going home to sleep. Many elven tribes in the Trahil Highlands are waiting for Chisel to die of old age so that they can erect a statue to worship him! That’s right, the legendary elven archdruid and Lord of Midgard, Chis’el, has lived for more than a thousand years and is still alive. He is still sleeping in the magic spring of Highgarden. "Grandpa Qisi'el is capable of defeating the beastmen. Powerful elves can defeat everyone! But Grandpa Qisi'el said that if the beastmen are defeated, another race will rise up and start a new round of war." "That's why he took his people back to Highgarden and stopped playing with the races below the mountain." Freya followed Leo on the road, playing and chatting. Finally, he threatened: "If you keep fighting, I won't play with you anymore!" Leo quickly coaxed: "Stop fighting, stop fighting, I just want to save people." "Then I'll help you!" Leo didn't expect that this trip would be so smooth and directly solve his biggest problem. All the tactics prepared before, such as throwing a tantrum, pestering, and threatening Freya, were of no use. Master Bobak simply sensed his emotions and gave his utmost support. According to the teachings of the elven druids, Master Bobak's behavior was a serious violation of the teachings. The existence of antler cassava was not originally intended for human beings. Once humans learn how to eat antler cassava, it is equivalent to obtaining the key to conquering the wilderness.
In the face of absolute population advantage, the living space of the wilderness tribes will be squeezed out in a short time. Sooner or later, these alien races and wild beasts will become rare protected animals. However, given the current environmental protection awareness of human beings, at least 99% of these alien races and beasts must be exterminated before the remaining ones will be taken seriously by humans. But these are not what Leo needs to worry about for the time being. In addition to considering the overall situation, people also need to maintain their stance. No matter how objectively Leo looks at the world, he is always on the side of humans. It is impossible for him to truly treat all beings as equals like the Elf Archdruid. As long as he takes the right stand and does his best, he will have a clear conscience. If the food problem is solved, half of the prerequisite for saving lives will be achieved. The process of purifying antler cassava is actually very simple. Except for the selection of ingredients and additives, it is almost exactly the same as the cassava flour production that Leo knows. Such a simple craft? Wouldn’t humans hundreds of years ago have been able to do it? Unfortunately, it won’t. People who need to rely on antler cassava to save their lives do not have the time, energy or knowledge to study how to eat it. No one with the time, energy, and knowledge would set their sights on such poison.
