Chapter 483 [0478] A Rookie Who Goes Deep Into the Freljord

It would have been fine if they hadn't noticed. When the drinkers began to look at the ice travelers, they were surprised to find that among the fifty or so people, there were quite a few with light hair, and they were all wearing very thin clothes!

Wearing thin clothes means being strong, there is no doubt about that. Under the blowing of Anivia's Breath, those who dared to wear clothes that were too little for their own strength had been frozen into popsicles.

In comparison, even the guards of the Avarosa tribe who followed their war mother Ashe to the Port of Porrel were at most at this level - the biggest difference between the two sides was that the warriors of Avarosa often wore leather armor or short jackets, while these ice travelers wore linings and robes or cloaks, that's all.

You know, Avarosa is almost the most famous tribe in the West Freljord subcontinent now. Even if this tribe is not famous for its amazing fighting power, the warriors guarding the war mother are definitely not ordinary hands.

And now, these never-heard-of Ice Travelers are actually similar to Ashe's guards...

In Freljord, Ice Travelers are either not wanted by the tribe or split from the tribe. These guys who look very difficult to mess with are obviously the latter.

If that's the case...many people have already remembered the rumors they heard not long ago.

A few smart guys quickly drank the wine in their glasses and quietly left the tavern-a few minutes later, they met again in the tent of the War Mother of the Walrus Tusk tribe.

Obviously, they thought of the same thing.

The War Mother of the Walrus Tusk was also a little confused by the sudden arrival of so many guests.

On such a cold day, why did the young men of the tribe not go to the tavern to brag, but suddenly came to see an old woman like her?

And they didn't look nervous, it seemed that the Winter Claw was not coming?

That's right, the war mother of Walrus Tusk is an old woman. This winter is the sixty-eighth winter after she got her name. She is so old that the tribesmen who grew up under her eyes prefer to call her Walrus Grandma.

"Walrus Grandma!" A guy who was just drunk in the tavern now looks sober. "Today, a group of extraordinary guys came to the tavern!"

"Extraordinary guys?" Although she is old, Walrus Grandma's eyesight and ears are not blurry. Hearing him say this, the old lady cooperated and showed a puzzled expression, "Are they special guests?"

"It's a group of ice travelers I have never seen before, buying supplies from that stingy old man." The visitor continued to explain, "I saw with my own eyes, they are all young people, and the leader is still the white-haired Ice Bloodline!"

This Walrus Grandma is not confused. When she heard the Ice Bloodline, she became serious.

"What about the rest?" She asked anxiously, "Are they furnace owners or warriors?"

"They should be warriors, or even spellcasters!" Another person rushed to speak, "They are all wearing very little!"

Hearing this, the walrus grandmother instantly understood the purpose of these people looking for her. She quickly put on her walrus fur coat, hesitated for a moment, took it off, changed into a thin coat, and then stood up and walked towards the tavern.

"Let's go and see these young people!" She was so excited that she didn't look like an old man at all, "Thanks to Ashe, she threw a stone into the calm lake!"

……………………

When the old lady pushed the door open, Ino was chatting with the tavern owner - according to Karya, gossiping is also an important means of collecting intelligence. Gossip may not be true, but the background of gossip is usually true.

However, Ino was obviously not a very good chatterer. Although she took the initiative to speak when the boss was preparing to pickle fish, the other party did not respond much, and seemed to be a little afraid of her, which made Ino somewhat embarrassed.

Respect is understandable, but fear is not what she wants to see.

As for the ice elemental mages drinking in the tavern...

They now speak Freljordan with a distinct accent, what kind of information can they gather at this time?

In fact, the main purpose of Ino coming to this small port is just to exchange some supplies - although it is almost 300 miles away from Fosbyro, from the perspective of Freljord, Piriel is also a poor and remote place, and there is no news.

Just yesterday, Ino and his party finally completed the last language teaching, and their guide returned to Fosbyro south after some instructions.

In fact, when the war just ended, not many people were willing to come out, and the guide sent them here, which was considered to be a kindness.

Now is the time for Ino and the 11 groups of ice mages to "beginners", so everyone is a little stiff, which is completely understandable.

However, what is incomprehensible is that just as Ino was chatting with the tavern owner, the door of the tavern was pushed open again, and a burly old lady strode to Ino.

"Little girl, are you also going to Avarosa?" She said straight to the point with the unique frankness of the Freljord people, "Consider the Port of Puriel. What Avarosa has, we also have - two cups of walrus milk, kid!"

Faced with the other party's words that seemed to be soliciting, Ino blinked, and his brain was in a state of shutdown for a moment.

How did she know that I was going to Avarosa?

Wait, there’s it in Avarosa, and it’s also available in Perrier Harbor?

Everyone in the Freljord is eager to engage in trade?

"Tell me, what do you have?" Although it was a little strange, Ino still responded in his usual calm tone, "You have what Avarosa has?"

"We have fish, a lot of fish, enough to feed all of you." The old lady knocked on the bar, "We also have a status that matches yours."

Ino blinked.

"Avarosa people are very sincere, but so am I." Taking a glass of milk-like drink from the tavern owner, the old lady handed one to Ino, and smoothly drank the other. Drinking it down, "I am an old walrus, and Walrus Tusk needs a strong leader."

Ino became confused.

The powerful phrases unique to the Freljordian language are sometimes difficult to understand, but the old lady's words seemed particularly difficult to understand - even though her accent was obviously closer to Demacia, Ino sounded particularly confused. , she really couldn't understand that she was too old and Walrus Tusk needed a leader. What did this have to do with trade.

It seems that this kind of tribal internal affairs should not be talked about to oneself, right?

Just when Ino was confused, Kalya suddenly spoke.

"She's hinting at you to join the Walrus Tusk!"

Hint to join Walrus Tusk?

"She seems to have misunderstood your identity and thinks you are a great ice bloodline." Kalya continued to explain, "From what she means, it seems that she is willing to train you as an heir. Remember before The guide has repeatedly emphasized that in Freljord, staying together for warmth is as normal as war."

"But what does this have to do with Avarosa?" Ino remained calm on his face, but secretly asked quickly, "Did I hear you correctly, Avarosa?"

"You heard it right, it is indeed Avarosa." Kalya agreed with her statement, "I don't know this at all, so we can use words to test it a little."

"A test of words?"

"This is also an important way to collect intelligence. Come on, learn from me!"

……………………

Although in theory, this operation was mainly to train intelligence collectors, but now there was an unexpected change, and Kalya had to log in from another place for on-site teaching.

Just think of it as an eye-opener for these newbies!

Ino rarely experienced the role of "ruthless simultaneous interpretation machine" played by Lux, and repeated Kalya's words expressionlessly.

"But Avarosa always had more credibility."

"But there are more of them." The old lady seemed to have already prepared her words. "The news, like the Breath of Anivia, has spread throughout Freljord, and everyone is rushing to Frostport. Hope follows the successor of the three sisters.”

"Yes, the successor of the three sisters." Ino nodded, and then at Kalya's signal, he emphasized his tone, "Ice bloodline."

"Me too." The old lady pulled out a crystal clear dagger from her waist and nailed it to the table, "Like you."

Ino stretched out her hand and held the weapon. An indescribable, cold and biting taste spread from the palm of her hand and reached the depths of her heart - this was Ino's first contact with Zhen Bing, even though she had already I heard from the guide that ice bloodline can use Zhenbing, but only after actually coming into contact with Zhenbing, Ino can truly understand what kind of existence it is.

Gritting his teeth slightly, Ino kept his expression expressionless as he pulled out the dagger and put it in front of him to look at it carefully.

"It's so beautiful." There was a hint of etherealness in her voice, "But to be honest, I don't really need it."

The old lady's eyes suddenly became subtle.

Putting the Zhenbing Dagger on the table with an expressionless expression, Ino reached out and picked up an empty cup. With just a shake, the cup was filled with ice cubes.

She moved her fingers, and an ice cube spontaneously jumped into her mouth, and she chewed it loudly. This was a favorite project of many people in Zaun Tavern. Ino learned and used it flexibly, and she really calmed the person in front of her. old lady.

Grandma Walrus was obviously confused.

Although Ino and the members of Group 11 were all wearing linings and robes, and they did not look like warriors, to be honest, before Ino took action, she had no idea that the person in front of her was actually a spell caster!

Damn it, when did the Frostguard Priests care about this remote country?

At this moment, Grandma Walrus even felt a little aggrieved in her heart. She was just using Ai Xi to "recruit talents from all over the world" in Ningshuang Port to go out and have some soup. Although it had a bit of a cut-off meaning, that was It’s also for the inheritance of Walrus Tusk!

The result was good, for the first time he took action, but he met a group of Frost Guard priests...

Wait, a group of Frostguard priests going to Avarosa?

Grandma Walrus's heart suddenly tightened. She subconsciously grabbed the dagger on the bar, but she missed it - just when she made a move, a group of ice had completely wrapped the dagger. .

At the same time, the 11th group of ice elemental mages, who had remained silent before, remained motionless at this time.

"You have revealed your own details." Ino stood up and looked condescendingly at the old lady in front of him, "Now, we can talk in detail."

"We are allies of Avarosa!"

"This is good news." Ino smiled for the first time, "I was just trying to find out about Avarosa - they are recruiting, right?"

"You don't know?" The walrus grandmother showed a surprised expression again, "Then why did you come?"

"To find out this." Ino waved his hand, indicating that everyone else could sit down, "I have no interest in your tribe."

The old lady looked at Ino hesitantly, as if she wanted to see something from Ino's expression, but unfortunately, Ino remained expressionless, and in the end, she could only sigh helplessly.

"It's not a secret." The old lady seemed to have accepted her fate. "Avarosa has experienced war. In order to fight against the Winter's Claw, Lord Ashe is recruiting people."

"To fight against the Winter's Claw?" Ino narrowed his eyes. "Has the war come to an end?"

"The Winter's Claw returned without success." The Walrus Grandma nodded. "You should ask the ice travelers in the north, the Demacians."

"???"

Although her identity was exposed, Ino always maintained her calmness on the surface. She was neither sure nor denied. She took a deep look at the old lady in front of her, and finally picked up the cup that the other party had handed to her before.

"Tell me what you know." Ino took a sip of the walrus milk in the cup, which was as thick as cream, and endured the discomfort of the tip of his tongue and throat, and maintained his calmness on his face, "As compensation for being reckless."

The Walrus Grandma finally smiled. She ignored the dagger still frozen in the ice, slapped the bar again, and asked for another glass of walrus milk.

"It's really interesting, really interesting." She drank the fishy and greasy liquid again, "The rumors are true, Ashe is indeed not an ordinary person."

"..."

Ino didn't say anything, just looked at the old lady in front of him quietly.

"Of course, you too." The walrus grandmother laughed, "You are here, the rumors are true, so can you tell me, is it true that Demacia is willing to accept the Freljord people?"

This time, it was finally Ino's turn to be stunned-not only Ino, but even Kalya didn't expect that this old lady would use this method to turn the tables.

Depart for Demacia?

Have the Freljord people fallen to this point now?

Is she continuing to test, or does she really have this idea?

"Demacia is preparing for war, guarding against the war that may come." Ino finally did not answer this question directly, "What will happen in the future? We will know after the war ends."

"The war is not over, it is just suspended." This not-so-powerful walrus grandmother finally showed the wisdom of a Freljord elder at this time, "I hoped that the tribe would have a powerful new war mother, but now, I would rather join Demacia."

"..."

"Once the walrus tusk is broken, it will never be revived again." The old lady said in a nostalgic tone, "It's not the time yet."

Kalya's Little Classroom·Freljord Migration to the South:

In fact, among the northern population of Demacia, a considerable part of them are Freljord people from the north - like Grandma Ling, there are many people who are unwilling to fight in the Freljord in the war and bitter cold. These Freljord people will always go south in small numbers and enter Demacia and become Demacians.

However, there has been no large-scale (tribal level or above) migration of Freljordians to the south. Most of those who went south were desperate ice travelers.

PS.55k/200k, JDG played well! But Hope needs to adjust his recent state to some extent. I hope JDG can continue to work hard in the knockout rounds!

In addition, this chapter says that there seems to be a problem recently.
