Chapter 99 Heatwave and men
In July, Valoran officially entered the hot summer.
And even in the hot summer, the frozen soil of Freljord, the northern land, has not melted at all.
But while Freljord brought trouble to Demacia, summer also brought coolness to Demacia.
Near the Demacia farming town of Irwindale, on top of the continuous snow-capped mountains, you may be able to see fireworks from the top of the mountain looking into the sunken valley. On the southern border of Freljord, an unusual event has come this year.
For large tribes, this place has become their gathering place.
The best facility in this gathering place is a temporary tavern.
There are few towns in the Freljord's ice territory. Most of the time, the local people set up simple tents like this, and the environment in which the tribe lives depends on the seasons. After all, in the Freljord
Not every tribe can be associated with magic. Food is scarce here, and warmth is even rarer.
Weak tribes have no place to live. Wherever they go, they are home. The Colaiso tribe is such a tribe.
A weak tribe that has nothing to do with magic. It is difficult for such a tribe to survive in a cruel place like Freljord. A weak tribe will only be swallowed up by a powerful tribe. But fortunately, Freljord
There is a kind and powerful tribe.
The legendary hero Avarosa is back. She and her tribe will unify the Freljord and bring food, clothing, hope, and warmth to the Freljord.
When the Coraiso people got the news, they rushed to the area near the southern border, hoping to meet Demacia's traveling merchants and exchange goods for a good deal or carry out a robbery.
.
Then, they will take advantage of the summer to rush to the center of Freljord, where the kind-hearted Avarosa will accept the goods they exchanged or robbed, and Coraiso will also
Join the Avarosa tribe to seek shelter from the strong.
At this moment, in the tavern of the Coraiso tribe, a group of strangely dressed men opened the door and appeared.
It's strange because their clothes look bloated and thick. The memory of sewing and the material make it clear at a glance that they are not Freljord craftsmanship. The most obvious thing is that they are not animal skins.
And this group of people were wrapped in pieces of clothing in their blue coats, which allowed the locals to tell at a glance that these people were not Freljordians.
"Boss, let's have five glasses of hot wine first, as hot as possible, and then give us some meat."
The leading man said in a low voice. After speaking, he raised his hand and lifted up his thick felt hat. He revealed a dark face and his white hair was tied back in wet balls. He stretched out his hand and took it off.
He took off his black leather gloves and said loudly: "Barter for barter, I understand your rules."
"I know who you are." The owner of the tavern is a tall Thors wearing a coat made of the skin of an unknown beast.
Looking up at the outsiders in front of him, Toles frowned and said, "Outlanders, you killed people from the Black Claw tribe. You messed with the wrong people."
"The Winter Tribe has already announced that the Black Claw Tribe will merge with them. You people have killed their people. When the Winter Tribe goes south and learns about this, they will find you and hang you."
On the big tree.”
"Winter tribe?" A tall, thin man with sunken eye sockets answered.
"Forget it, why am I talking to a dead man about this?" Thors suddenly shook his head, lowered his body and found a dark bottle by the stove, and poured the wine into the cup.
The cup was washed clean with snow and dark yellow wine was poured into it. The color looked very warm.
"Can you help us warm it up again?" the white-haired young man asked again.
"Warmth also costs money, first tell me what you can give me?" The tavern owner said as the cups were placed in a row in front of him.
"Mr. Skell, bring out the wheat."
"Yes." The man with sunken eyes glanced at the tavern owner. Then, he took off the backpack he was carrying and took out a bag the size of a human head.
"A bag of good quality wheat." Skye opened the bag and placed it on the small table.
Toles looked over, and when he saw the yellowed wheat, his eyes lit up, and he nodded and said, "There is a processing fee, but what about the wine money?"
"Don't worry, I will satisfy you."
"Okay, I believe you." Nodding, Toles put the cups aside and poured the heated heat wave wine into the cup. The dark yellow color became brighter, and the hot steam from the scalding wine made Ike
Relaxed.
"Mr. Skell, does your shield meter still have enough energy? If not, I can help you replace it with a new energy source."
Ike drank the warm wine. He didn't like drinking when he was in Zaun, but now that he's here, in just one month, Ike has begun to like wine.
In this cold ghost place, wine is something that can warm people. Sometimes, it is more precious than food.
"That would be the best." Skell looked at Ike, nodded and said, "I will also bother you with their shield table."
"No, no, no, no trouble." Ike quickly shook his head.
Of course it's not troublesome.
Skell and his law enforcers have been fighting a lot of Freljordians these days.
Especially the Black Claw tribe mentioned by the tavern owner, Magic, a tribe with less than twenty people, actually has two magicians!
The shield meter is the energy lost in the battle against the Black Talon tribe.
"But Ike, I remember you said last time that reinforcements were coming from the Twin Cities?" Skye was also drinking wine. This drink that he used to disdain has now become a precious thing.
"Brother Lin Wen hopes that we can build a few more Hex base stations here. If possible, we can get to know a few more Freljordians. He will be useful."
"The Hexbase station that is built must be protected by someone." Skye smiled bitterly, "It seems that many brothers and sisters will have to suffer in the future."
Ike listened, nodded and said yes with a smile.
The Freljord is white as far as the eye can see, and the tall Hex Base Station is all blue, looking mysterious and noble. There is no reason for the Freljordians not to come and see such a thing. This is also what Ikko
The reason why the others started fighting with the Black Claw tribe.
After repelling more than a dozen people, six of them, four warriors and two mages, were left behind.
Gunfire is unrestricted in the ice and snow, and the powerful defense of the shield allows law enforcement officers to not worry about their own safety.
When I think about it, the shield is really the most powerful and practical thing that Ike invented.
"But, who is coming over?" Skye asked a crucial question.
The person who came must be a law enforcement officer, but who led the team here?
"Brother Lin Wen didn't say anything."
Ike continued: "He just said he was a good helper."
"Anyone can come." The young law enforcement officer on the side interjected and muttered: "I just hope that some replacements can come early so that I can have a good night's sleep."
