Runeterra: I really know a little bit about everything

Chapter 98: War Mother recruits a bride! (Please subscribe)
The icy-cold seawater lapped on the east coast of Freljord, and countless icebergs collided with each other in the seawater, making crisp tinkling sounds.

Landing on the east coast of the Freljord continent, Zuochi looked around and saw an endless expanse of ice and snow.

Thousands of years ago, Ornn, the god of fire and forging, dug a trench across half of the continent in the middle of the Freljord continent in order to cool down his furnace. Sea of ​​ice.

After the ditch was built, Ornn's sister, the Seal Sister, guided the sea water of the Sea of ​​Ice into the ditch for Ornn, and crossed half a continent to cool down the furnace. At that time, the sea level of the Sea of ​​Ice across the north of Runeterra was abruptly Dropped several meters.

The sea water collided with the blazing earth fire, and a large amount of water vapor rose into the sky of Freljord. From then on, a never-ending heavy snow fell on the continent.

When they met in Bilgewater, Braum once told Zuochi that the Freljord was about to usher in the coldest winter in history.

Now it seems that the climate here is indeed extremely bad.

In this environment, if humans want to survive successfully, in addition to a strong body, the existence of the tribe is crucial.

A powerful tribe can really be said to be the most important thing in Freljord, because having a tribe means that the chance of successful hunting will be greatly increased, and the ability to resist the plunder of foreign enemies will be stronger.

In the Freljord, apart from powerful iceborn like Braum, few people who act alone can survive.

Because even if they don't freeze to death, they will still be robbed and slaughtered by others of the same kind.

Zuo Chi stepped on the thick snow, and there were constant "crunching" sounds under his feet. At the same time, he was also thinking about where he should go.

In Freljord today, apart from a group of ancient gods, there seem to be only three tribes that are the most powerful.

Warmother Ashe’s Avarosa tribe, Warmother Sejuani’s Winter’s Claw tribe, Warmother Lissandra’s Frostguard tribe!
These three tribes are now the most powerful tribes in the entire Freljord. Their war mothers are all powerful iceborn, and each one has the ability to dominate one side.

Today, Zuochi is located in the territory of the Frost Guard tribe.

However, Zuo Chi had discovered a long time ago that the Frost Guard tribe was extremely xenophobic, and it was impossible for them to accept outsiders, especially outsiders from other continents.

From the east coast of the Freljord continent and deeper into the interior, Zuochi kept trying to find traces of strangers.

It has to be said that although Freljord is extremely vast, the population in it is extremely sparse, and the word "vast land and sparsely populated" is more appropriate to describe it.

From morning to noon, Zuo Chi traveled almost dozens of miles.

Finally, a strange-looking sentry tower gradually appeared in Zuo Chi's sight. Inside the sentry tower, stood two figures wearing armor and holding bows and arrows.

This was the first human figure Zuo Chi had seen since he landed on the Freljord continent.

Without hesitation, Zuo Chi rushed straight towards the sentry tower.

"Whoosh!"

However, just as Zuo Chi was approaching the sentry tower, an arrow flying at extremely high speed pinned his feet.

"Stranger, leave, this is the territory of the Frost Guard, no one is welcome!"

Looking at the arrows in front of him, and then at the two figures unstringing their bows on the sentry tower ahead, Zuo Chi couldn't help but shake his head.

"How can I get to the Avarosa tribe?" Zuo Chi shouted.

"Are you from the Avarosa tribe!?"

Not to mention it was okay, but when Zuo Chi asked this question, the long bows in the hands of the two people were straightened. It seemed that as long as Zuo Chi answered yes, they would shoot Zuo Chi to death without hesitation.

Zuo Chi shook his head: "I'm from Ionia. The Frost Guards don't welcome strangers, so I will naturally go to another tribe."

Hearing Zuo Chi's words, the two people on the sentry tower couldn't help but pause for a moment, but then they got together and discussed something in a low voice.

However, with Zuo Chi's senses, he still heard the conversation between the two.

"Could it be that the news about War Mother Ai Xi's recruitment of blood alliances has spread to other continents?"

"War Mother Ashe can be said to be the strongest War Mother in the entire Freljord besides our War Mother. I estimate that many people will come here to see her."

"But with his size, he probably isn't even qualified to carry shoes for War Mother Ash."

"."

Hearing this, Zuo Chi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Ashe wants to recruit a blood alliance?
Blood pact, this is the name of Freljord, which actually means husband in marriage.

However, the Freljord continent is a matriarchal society. Here, men do not marry women, but women marry men.

Now it seems that Ash is going to publicly search for a husband?
Doesn't this mean that the Avarosa tribe will be extremely lively by then?
In this case, it should be convenient for Zuo Chi to ask for some information about the ancient gods of Freljord.

Moreover, Zuo Chi also wanted to inquire about Bronn. He had just arrived in Freljord and he was unfamiliar with people. Without an acquaintance, it would be very difficult to do anything.

Thinking of this, Zuo Chi ignored the two people on the sentry tower and turned into a stream of light and disappeared in front of them.

Although Zuo Chi was not sure of the specific location of the Avarosa tribe, he knew that the territory of the Avarosa tribe was very close to the Hearth Country where Ornn was located, and both were located in the middle of the Freljord continent.

Coupled with the Avarosa tribe's status in the Freljord, it should be easy to find them if you ask in the past.

Zuo Chi was extremely fast. When the two people on the sentry tower reacted, they only saw a figure tearing through the snow curtain and galloping away.

Just letting Zuo Chi go like this, or pushing it to the bitter enemies of the Frost Guard, I don't know if they will regret it in the future, or what Lissandra will say if she knows it in the future.
Snow fell all over the sky, and the traces of Zuo Chi's existence were quickly smoothed away, and the two people on the sentry tower returned to peace again.On Zuo Chi's side, now that he had recognized his target, he rushed towards the west without stopping.

This time, Zuo Chi finally saw the xenophobia of the Frost Guard tribe. They seemed to prohibit anyone from approaching the Frost Guard territory without any explanation.

Frost Guard
So what are they guarding?

In the following time, Zuochi finally gradually left the territory of the Frost Guard after passing many Frost Guard sentry towers.

Walking in the snow, Zuo Chi tried his best to maintain his sense of direction. If he were lost in the snow, he would probably be no different from a headless fly.

The Freljord is very different from empires like Shurima, Noxus, and Demacia, because there isn't even a decent landmark building here!
Shurima has the Sun Disk, Noxus has the Immortal Fortress, Demacia has the Demacia Capital, and the Freljord really only has snow falling in the sky. There is really something to be said for other iconic buildings. No.

That's not right, there seems to be a landmark building, but that landmark building has no reference value for travelers like Zuo Chi.

Because that building is on the territory of the Frost Guard tribe - the Howling Abyss!

It is almost the most top-secret place of the Frost Guard, and it is absolutely impossible to allow strangers to approach.

After leaving the last Frost Guard sentry tower behind, a team trudging forward in the snow finally appeared in front of Zuochi!

Quickly approaching, Zuo Chi saw clearly the size of the team ahead.

It was led by an old man holding a cane, followed by several men, women and children.

The only means of transportation in the entire team was covered with luggage and was carefully surrounded by the entire team.

Sensing Zuo Chi's approach, several men in the team drew out their weapons at the same time and stared at Zuo Chi who suddenly appeared.

"Stop, who are you!"

At this time, Zuo Chi was shirtless, and the muscles on his body were solid, not skinny and skinny like them because of hunger. In addition, with the package slung behind Zuo Chi, they directly identified Zuo Chi as Freir. Robbers in the Wasteland of Zod!

But they were a little confused as to why Zuo Chi didn't ride a frost wolf.
Zuo Chi looked at the people in the team and found that, except for those children, everyone in the team seemed to be on the verge of running out of fuel.

The old man at the head was struggling to support his thin body with the crutches in his hands, and his eyes were extremely cloudy.

There is no doubt that these people seem to have not eaten for a long time.

"I am from the continent of Ionia, and I would like to ask you about the location of the Avarosa tribe." Zuo Chi said softly.

"Ok?"

A look of surprise flashed through the eyes of the people in front, and they seemed to understand why Zuo Chi was still in such a strong state.

Everyone in the team looked at the old man at the front. The old man said slowly: "Young man, we are also preparing to go to the Avarosa tribe. If you don't mind, you can go with us."

"Of course, if you think we are walking slowly, I can show you the way, and you can leave first."

Hearing the old man's words, Zuo Chi was also a little surprised.

"Are you all going to attend the event where War Mother Ai Xi recruits blood allies?"

"How do we have that qualification?"

The old man let out a long sigh: "On this trip, we only ask the kind war mother Ai Xi to take in my tribe. This winter is really too cold. My tribe has not caught prey for an unknown period of time, and many people have starved to death. If this continues, my people will be afraid."

At this point, the old man stopped talking, but Zuo Chi also understood everything.

Sure enough, just as he expected, the old man and the people in the team behind him had not eaten for a long time.

After pondering for a while, Zuo Chi said softly: "Old man, I am willing to go with you."

"Haha!" The old man smiled and nodded: "Let's keep walking."

In this way, after several days of trekking, Zuo Chi finally got on the right track.

Because there were many elderly people, women and children in the team, the team did not move very fast.

Through the conversation, Zuo Chi also learned that the old man was the leader of this tribe, and his name was Lei Ze.

While rushing on the road, Lei Ze also kindly asked about Zuo Chi's situation.

"Young man, do you also want to become a blood ally of War Mother Ai Xi?"

After asking this question, everyone in the team looked at Zuo Chi curiously.

Zuo Chi smiled and shook his head: "I have no intention of becoming Ashe's blood ally. I went to the Avarosa tribe just to get some information."

"I see."

The old man patted Zuo Chi on the shoulder: "Warmother Ashe is the greatest person in the entire Freljord. Anyone who can become his blood alliance must be the most powerful warrior."

"As for ordinary people like us, it is a great blessing to be protected by the War Mother. There is no need to force so much."
