Empire calendar, 225 years.
Scipio grassland, legend says that this place was named to commemorate a tiger hero, Scipio.
The strong wind blew, with a cold feeling.
A foreigner wearing a black cloak slowly approached the tent of a small tribe.
"who?"
A rough voice came from the tent.
The curtain was lifted, and a tiger man with thick brown hair on his body and a graphic of the word "king" on his forehead emerged.
He was burly and powerful on the upper body, wearing a robe covering one shoulder.
The tent was very warm, and there were a few tiger cubs playing.
"Hello, my name is Ritchie, a traveler from afar, who wants to stay for one night."
Ritchie took out a small piece of gold: "I will pay it."
"It turned out to be a visitor from another place, come in quickly..."
The tiger man grinned, and a smile appeared on his face: "As for the reward, we grassland tiger man is the most hospitable, so don't tell me these..."
It invited Ricci into the tent, and then shouted and scolded his partner. A female tiger man went to get a pot of mutton.
Although there are not many seasonings, the meat is solid.
"Thank you..."
Ritchie frowned, but grabbed it and ate it.
The tiger man brought horse milk wine again, scolding the little tiger boy who wanted to rush over: "The guests laughed. They had never seen humans. I only saw some when I was serving in the northern nobles..."
"It turns out that I am still a retired veteran. I was also born in the Northland area, from Xinghu..." Richi smiled.
"So, guest, what are you going so far to come to the grassland?"
The tiger man asked curiously: "If you need it... I, Barber, will definitely help you."
"To be honest... I am a magician. After completing my studies and breaking through the ranks, I accepted the mission of the academy to come to the north to spread the true meaning of magic and build a mage tower!"
Ricci drank a mud wine and said in a deep voice.
"Magic? Are you the legendary Mystery?"
Barber widened his eyes: "So...you really master the power of...magic?"
Ricky smiled, letting a ball of light emerge between his fingers.
In an instant, the tent became completely quiet.
Even those little tigers hugged each other and lost their ability to speak.
"This is really...too negligent!"
Barber looked at him at a loss and wanted to salute.
“No need to…”
Ricky took the magic and smiled slightly, and his heart was actually full of bitterness.
When he became an apprentice and learned magic, the happiest day in his life.
After graduation, he didn't know whether it was for the sake of the beautiful shadow in his heart or something else, so he resolutely chose to stay in school to teach. Anyway, he couldn't inherit his family property even if he went back.
But the blow followed.
Lindsay actually married Emperor Justinian and became the most noble queen.
Ricci could only cry silently in secret, and after being promoted to level 4 magician, he immediately prepared to leave the academy and start traveling.
Many magicians obtained the construction technology of the mage tower from Ilya before leaving the school, preparing to return to their territory or build it in the wilderness.
After all, that is not only a powerful guarantee, but also a laboratory and an alchemy platform, which is very useful for the progress of the magician.
To be honest, a magician as high as Ritchie left the academy and caused a big sensation at the time.
And his choice is even more so.
He did not choose to stay in the imperial capital, even though some of the great nobles offered very generous bargaining chips to attract him and wanted him to become a retainer, even the royal family promised to be a noble.
But Ritchie resolutely left the sad place and did not go home, but subconsciously wanted to stay away from everything.
Before I knew it, I took on the task and came to the grasslands in the far north.
Here, he saw the other side of the completely different empire.
No matter how fair and just Jupiter is, he is a human after all, and the second generation Justinian the Great is also a purebred human.
This made the human supreme person in the empire begin to look up.
At the same time, the orcs could only live in the barren north and endure various natural disasters year after year.
For example, the "white disaster", that is, the snow disaster. According to the tiger man Barber, once it appears, many small tribes will become extinct!
Even for large tribes, it is normal for more than half of the casualties.
Even so, those greedy human nobles are still expanding northward and eroding the orc territory!
‘The two power systems of superstring warriors and magicians are secretly restricted to spread to orcs... Especially in the magician system, orcs with relatively simple thinking are difficult to master the power of magic!’
Ritchie thought to herself.
Human aristocrats are greedy and despicable.
On the grasslands in the extreme north, he received kindness from simple orcs.
All of this made him make up a certain decision.
‘I will spread civilization to the grassland and do my best to protect one side!’
Thinking of this, Ritchie said to Barber: "Do you want to... get out of the White Disaster?"
"Unless you walk south, it is impossible to escape from the white-haired wind..." The tiger man replied with a wry smile, stroking his child's head.
"I just said that I am going to build a mage tower here, it's true!"
Ricci said solemnly: "As long as you have a mage tower, you can get the protection of spells. Maybe it won't change the environment, but it's more than enough to protect one or two small tribes... You can get a warm environment in winter, and the power of magic can make plants grow faster and let animals get more feed. You don't have to worry about starving to death in the coming year..."
"Of course, I can't do this with my own strength, but I can teach students, let them teach more students, and build the grassland into a rich land."
As Ritchie spoke, his eyes gradually became firm.
This is indeed his hope.
If you can do this, you can live up to your life goals.
Magic does not necessarily bring harm, there are more beauty!
"Never be afraid of white disaster?"
Hearing this, Barber's tiger eyes were already in tears: "Dear Magician, if you can do this, you are not only the benefactor of our family, but all the people of the grassland will regard you as the greatest and most respectable person... But you must be careful that there are corpses in the ice and snow, which caused a terrible disaster."
"Ghost?"
Richi asked curiously and heard a legend in the North.
It is rumored that in the ice and snow further north, there are "ghosts", which are a group of blue-eyed monsters that can control the power of ice and snow.
Every few years in winter, they will go south, causing terrible disasters to the grassland.
"interesting!"
