Chapter 66 The Kingdom of Eternal Night and [Snow Queen] Elsa. (Seeking for further reading)

●Today’s ticket to the pub is Snow Beer.

The Snowflake Knight is a legendary knight who rose from the north. It is said that when he was born, snowflakes were flying, the north wind was howling, and at that time, it was the Moon of Fire.

  No matter what era or nation you are in, there are always some legendary stories.

 Levi drank the wine and entered the tavern.

He hasn't been here for a long time. Levi can capture the breathing, talking, slamming the table, drinking and other various actions and sounds of all kinds of people through primary vibration perception.

At this moment, he felt as if he had the spiritual consciousness of a low-level character in a fairy novel.

He straightened his clothes, sat at a table alone, drank a small drink, and listened to the bard in the tavern telling the legendary stories of legendary knights.

Levi sighed in his heart, maybe one day in the future, when he becomes a living legendary knight, he will pass by this tavern and listen to the troubadour telling his own story, which may be true or false, with exaggerated artistic techniques. Taste it.

 “I will become a legend, I will.”

Levi sat in the tavern from dusk to early morning. He listened to the conversations of wandering knights and bounty hunters from all directions. From the foul language of the drunken bosses, he roughly understood the current situation.

 The refugees he had seen freezing to death on the roadside had fled from further north.

Since the turn of the millennium, it seems that the whole world has entered the Little Ice Age. In short, it is getting colder year by year. The living environment of those places in the far north where we could barely live in previous years is getting worse and worse. Summer is the time of year all year round. It’s getting shorter and shorter, and more and more time belongs to winter.

Not only the northern land of the Emerald Kingdom, but also the northern land of the neighboring Tuva Empire also suffers from such a harsh climate.

 However, neither the Emerald Kingdom nor the Tuva Empire is far north.

 The area most strongly affected by this unusually cold winter is the country in the far north of the continent.

　　The Kingdom of Eternal Night, known as the "Land of Winter", is the master of the Far North.

 This is a country that believes in the "ice and snow goddess", and its ruler is the "ice and snow queen" Elsa, who is said to be the "daughter of God".

Many of these refugees fled from the Kingdom of Evernight.

 If it's just severe cold, it's nothing.

 After all, the people of the Kingdom of Evernight have lived in a cold place for generations and can barely adapt.

The most terrifying thing is that some refugees claimed that they saw snow monsters or things like evil spirits in the snowstorm. They brought a more violent snowstorm than before. The Ice and Snow Church called it: "Snow Monster" Demon".

In the past, everyone would not have believed this kind of thing. However, as "evil spirit" attacks have occurred more and more frequently in various places in recent years, even the Holy Glory Church has begun to admit that there is indeed some kind of "evil spirit" in this world. evil spirit".

 The church defines evil spirits as "minions of the devil". They are devils born from the seven deadly sins of human beings in the mortal world. They are caused by the fact that the people of the kingdom are not loyal enough to their faith in the loving Father in Heaven.

Therefore, in recent years, the church has used this as an excuse to build large-scale construction projects in some remote places where there were no churches before, such as those places where Levi's Blackwater Valley is located, encouraging believers to be more devout than ever in believing in the Father and only the Father. The Holy Light and the Holy Sword of the Radiant Knights can subdue evil spirits.

 All in all, people nowadays basically believe the rumors about the Snow Demon.

Nowadays, people in Icewind City are panic-stricken. Some wealthy nobles have begun to move south. They are going to the Green Forest Province and the warm south. Some nobles are even more southern-minded and plan to move their families to the "Eternal Land" where they believe. The molten kingdom of fire.

Levi listened to everything in the tavern, exhaled softly, and said to himself: "This world is getting more and more chaotic."

 “Evil spirits, snow monsters, the Wilderness Brotherhood, the call of death birds, ambitious nobles, the Emerald Kingship that exists in name only, and the overt and covert struggles among the major divine powers..."

 “It’s so hard to live.” Levi thought of the frozen bones on the road.

"However, the price of serfs is expected to drop significantly during this period, so we can buy more serfs." Li Wei stood up and sat here all night. He already understood a lot about the situation in the outside world.

 Finally, he issued the commission in a corner of the Shining Tavern. “Commissioned content: Giant Breathing Method or other breathing method inheritance diagram.”

“Request reward: Starting from 10 gold, interview is possible. If you are interested, you can contact Mr. White Wolf Geralt, the collector of breathing methods, through the Shining Tavern.”

Levi doesn't have any hope of finding the Giant Breathing Technique, but there's nothing wrong with giving it a try.

Besides, even if there is no Giant Breathing Technique, it would be great to be able to collect other breathing techniques.

After walking out of the tavern, Levi's figure disappeared into the dark night. He walked to a deserted alley. As he walked, his body shape began to change. In the end, Levi's body shape was completely different from before.

He put on the "White Wolf Mask" that he forged with his own hands. It was made of fine iron and mixed with a little mithril.

 This is modeled after the "suicide bird face", which can prevent poisons and also protect the face.

He also personally forged version 2.0 of "Frostmourne", which contained a piece of mithril the size of a baby's fist. This piece of mithril alone cost Levi two hundred gold coins. Only such a top-quality weapon could withstand it. Withstand the destruction of the "power of ripples" and give full play to the power of the Golden Cross Slash!

He also forged a inferior knight's sword for Fred, which was also fused with mithril. Both of them suffered from poor weapons. This kind of thing must never happen again!

 Levi took out a small bottle containing a highly poisonous substance.

 Frostmourne is smeared with "Tears of the Spider", as is the Black Snake Dagger.

 Everything is ready, the killing moment begins.

 …

To the south of Icewind City, there is an abandoned castle. The nameless castle here hundreds of years ago has long been dilapidated, and there are even rumors of evil spirits haunting it.

Whether it is true or not that the evil spirits are haunted, in short, no one has lived in this castle for a long time, and no one will come to this eerie and strange place.

Through the dim corridor, there is a cave inside. This is the secret stronghold of the Death Bird in Icewind City.

Inside the castle, there is a renovated training ground. Young members who have the talent to practice the Siren Breathing Method found by the Death Bird Organization from Icewind City and surrounding areas are being guided by people called "mentors". , practicing assassination skills.

 Their expressions were either numb or fanatical, and they were reciting the contents of "Praise of Shadows" while practicing.

"Only those who put death and fear behind can become a true assassin. What is an assassin? We walk in the shadows. We can see the real world that is invisible to the eyes of ignorant people. Light is just an illusion, a delusion, shadow and darkness. This is the original appearance of the universe.”

“Only in this way can you become a shadow servant beside the Lord of Shadows after death and live forever from now on.”

A mentor was explaining the teachings of the Lord of Shadows to the members of the organization, and at the same time assigned some budding assassins their own assassination missions. After finishing all this, he tied a written letter to a red-eyed crow. During this time, he was ordered to investigate the whereabouts of Tieshan, the gold medal assassin in the organization, but to no avail. He wanted to pass the news to the Pale Shadow.

As far as the mentor knows, Tieshan was ordered to assassinate Baron Levi of Blackwater Valley, but there is no news yet. People in the organization are not even sure whether Tieshan actually carried out the assassination. After all, Tieshan is a disciple of a big family and a gold medal assassin. , I always go my own way.

The mentor was more inclined to Tieshan not to carry out the assassination mission, because he had sent people to investigate from a distance. Everything in the Blackwater Valley was normal, and there was no sign of the dead lord at all.

Furthermore, the instructor believed that with Tieshan's own high-level knight status and his proficiency in two breathing techniques, it would be impossible to fail if he attempted an assassination.

If Tieshan fails, then within the sound of the death bird, only five shadows can succeed.

 But letting Wuying personally assassinate a junior, this kind of thing has not happened for many years.

This mentor let go of the crow in his hand and wanted to pass on the results of the investigation here to the pale shadow.

The red-eyed crow just took off, accompanied by a burst of void noise.

 A feather arrow shot out the crow's head, and a figure wearing a white wolf mask appeared at the end of the corridor. Behind him were the bodies of the two gatekeepers.

 The white wolf has arrived, and there are no taboos!
