Chapter 460 Frost Forge
Countless water elements and ice elements filled the entire underground, turning the entire underground into a high-concentration elemental environment.

If the Frost Forge had been fully completed and was functioning properly, this high-concentration elemental environment would naturally bring benefits, but the problem was that, as the final project before the split of the Clan Kingdom, the Frost Forge had not been completed.

Moreover, perhaps the Frost Dwarves still had the means to maintain the Frost Forge when they first split, but as supplies became scarce and the entire Frost Clan weakened, it became increasingly difficult for them to maintain the Frost Forge.

Therefore, an environment with high concentration of elements without any restraint and in a violent state becomes extremely dangerous.

Endless cold is permeating the entire underground, and the coldness comparable to that of the Arctic is almost covering the entire underground.

Roland stood calmly at the highest point of the Frost Forge. Under his feet, some part of the Frost Forge had been completely frozen. With the naked eye, it was impossible to tell what was frozen inside.

He stood on the ice, silently watching the two separate dwarf camps not far away.

Compared to the complicated situation in Ice Stone City, in the Frost Forge, the only way into the deep pit, Roland could clearly see the general situation within the Frost Clan.

With two thermal towers that emit heat to fight the cold as the center, the Frost Dwarves are clearly divided into two camps. They are wary of each other. On the outskirts of the camp, the extraordinary people are constantly patrolling and staring at each other.

They divided the usable part of the Frost Forge into two and each took one of them.

Roland looked at the two camps and didn’t find them strange.

It’s just internal fighting, so typical.

In the Northland, Sinar, and even in Donnar before the War Council, Roland had seen all kinds of infighting.

Enough of tasting already.

However, the focus is not on them.

Roland looked down at the mirror in his hand, which was made of ice elements. The effect of the prophecy spell was emerging on it.

As Roland arrived at the Frost Forge and got closer and closer to the disaster point of the cold disaster, the effect of the prophecy spell on the cold disaster became more and more obvious.

Especially since Roland had personally come into contact with the source of the cold disaster.

Looking at the aura of the water element emerging from the ice realm, and the water element that seemed to be moving in the turbulence of time and space, Roland, who had expected this, was not too surprised.

Ever since he first predicted the cold disaster, Roland had vaguely sensed that the cold disaster might be related to the water elemental realm.

After all, the cold disaster was caused by the Frost Dwarves. It would not be easy for Roland, who had never had any contact with the Frost Dwarves, to predict the unrelated cold disaster.

Therefore, after his first prediction was successful, Roland guessed that he had most likely come into contact with something related to the cold disaster.

Before completing [Spirituality], Roland thought about it and thought that the thing that could be related to the cold disaster was most likely the water elemental world that was getting closer and closer to the material world.

Generally speaking, although the elemental world is running around in the turbulence of time and space, it usually does not get too close to the material world because of the repulsion of the material world.

However, when Roland was fighting with Kan’ozu, taking on the shadow of the elemental world and borrowing its power, he discovered that the distance between the water elemental world and the material world was a little too close.

Under the repulsion of the material world, the water elemental world can approach the material world. There must be something in the material world that is actively pulling it.

Combining the predictions about the cold disaster, Roland guessed that the cold disaster was most likely related to the water elemental world.

And after [Spirituality] was completed, Roland’s [Spirituality] confirmed Roland’s guess.

However, Roland originally thought that the Frost Dwarves pulled the Water Elemental Realm over with their Frost Rune technology, but he didn’t expect that it was the Frost Forge that actually pulled the Water Elemental Realm over.

But Roland still had some doubts that were not answered.

With the current Frost Forge, it is almost impossible to break through the material barrier and establish a long-term channel for the water elemental world to enter the material world.

If the cold disaster is caused by the elements of the water elemental world pouring out of the material world, then there must be a channel that is large enough and lasts for a long time to ensure that sufficient elements flow from the elemental world to the material world.

Roland waved his right hand, and the ice mirror turned into an element and disappeared in front of him. He raised his head and looked to the north, at the core of the frost forge that was running in the distance.

Forget it, let’s go to the core and see the specific situation first.

Roland didn’t care about the factional divisions of the Frost Dwarves. He believed that Hela, who was collecting intelligence in Ice Stone City, would bring him the information he needed. His focus was to find the location where the cold disaster broke out.

After taking a final glance at the dwarf camp, Roland’s figure disappeared on the ice.

For high-level spellcasters, the cold wind underground is not much different from an ordinary spring breeze. For Roland, the entire underground is completely unobstructed.

Except for mid- and high-level extraordinary people, basically no one can withstand the cold. Therefore, Roland did not meet anyone on the way to the core and arrived at the core smoothly.

Standing in front of the core door of the Frost Forge, Roland raised his eyebrows slightly.

The core door in front of him was completely out of tune with the entire core. It was not a metal door, but an ice and stone door. Moreover, it did not have the access control system that was unique to the country of clans, but only a very simple and basic magic array.

Did the Frost Dwarves forcibly demolish the core gate?

Roland stretched out his senses and observed the situation carefully. After confirming that there were no traps in the magic circle on the ice stone door, Roland snapped his fingers, directly simulating a false signal, deceiving the magic circle, and opening the ice stone door.

Then Roland walked in.

Compared to the Silver Forge, the core of the Frost Forge is somewhat different.

Unlike the desolate Silver Forge after the Civil War, and unlike the neat restoration after the committee took over, the Frost Forge appeared messy, with all kinds of messy things piled up in the core.

Ice, stains, weapons, equipment, materials, food.
Looking at the box that almost blocked the stairs, Roland had no choice but to use magic to shrink his body so that he could go up the stairs.

Since all the forges were built by the clan countries and Roland had experience with silver forges, he arrived at the control room smoothly.

Then, Roland saw the control room with all the consoles broken into pieces and scrapped.

Without a control room, how do the Frost Dwarves make the core move?
Roland frowned slightly and chose to use the prophecy spell to find out the arrangements of the frost dwarves here and the initial outbreak point of the cold disaster.

Based on the prophecy spell and the traces of the surrounding piles, Roland quickly arrived at his destination.

Roland came to the top floor of the core. As soon as he walked out of the stairs, he saw a deep, large teardrop floating in the center. This characteristic product of the water elemental world was floating in the air, and more than a dozen metal chains extending from the ground bound it tightly. At the same time, around the teardrop, a large number of frost runes floated aside, affecting and controlling the teardrop.

Roland observed the teardrops in front of him and deduced the function of the device in front of him.

In front of you is the energy center that the Frost Dwarves created using Frost Rune Technology after the central control room was scrapped. They absorbed elements of the water elemental through tears to serve as the energy source for the Frost Forge, and adjusted the amount of injected energy through Frost Runes and chains.

As for how to control the core, the Frost Dwarves adopted the simplest and most brutal method.

They seemed to have used some unknown means to directly adjust the structure of the core, thereby permanently opening the core of the Frost Forge. As for how to perform more sophisticated control, the Frost Dwarves seemed unable to do it.

Their only manipulation is by adjusting the amount of energy injected.

Through the energy pipeline dismantled by the frost dwarves, Roland covered the past with his perception.

Then, Roland saw the energy pipeline filled with the aura of the water elemental world, which had completely transformed into the appearance of the water elemental world, as well as the elemental ingots that had been deposited in it for who knows how many years and had materialized into solid matter.

No, buddy?
Roland became more and more frightened. There was almost no sign of maintenance on the energy pipeline of the Frost Forge. There were even obvious faults and holes. It was obvious that it was not yet completed.

However, such energy pipelines have been continuously injected with endless elements from the water elemental world by the Frost Dwarves for many years. A large amount of water elements cannot be used and accumulate in the pipelines. The violent elements have caused the energy pipelines to be distorted and have holes.

A large amount of elements flowed into the structure of the Frost Forge through the loopholes. As the elements were continuously injected, they squeezed each other to form elemental ingots, which solidified on the structure of the Frost Forge, causing a large amount of the structure to be frozen and unable to operate.

As far as Roland could sense, nearly all the gaps in the structure were filled with elemental ingots, and only a few were still in operation. Moreover, the structure with holes in the shell could crush the influx of elemental ingots and throw them out through the holes in the shell.

But even so, the damage to the operating structure is very serious.

The dangerous elemental environment beneath the Frostforge is partly due to these constantly leaking elements.

With the Frost Dwarves madly injecting elements, the entire Frost Forge has been filled with elemental ingots, which have turned the Frost Forge into an oversized bomb.

Once detonated, at least half of the Frost Forge would be reduced to ruins, and the Ice Stone City above would also suffer heavy losses, and it is not impossible that it would be completely destroyed.

No wonder the Frost Forge was already in ruins when the club came over. It was very likely that these elemental ingots were also detonated when the cold disaster broke out. Coupled with the damage caused by the cold disaster, it would be strange if it didn’t become a ruin.

If Roland wanted to keep the Frost Forge, he had to deal with this bomb in advance. Moreover, according to the prophecy spell, the cold disaster first broke out here.

But the problem is that Roland only saw the danger of the Frost Forge exploding and could not find the cause of the cold disaster. The tear drops were not the key to the cold disaster.

So complicated.

Roland sighed. Although he felt it was a bit troublesome, he still took out the magic book and started working honestly.

Although the specific cause of the cold disaster outbreak is still unknown, now that the location of the outbreak has been found, we can set up positions and make preparations in advance.

If the water element world really descends by then, Roland can prevent a large amount of elements from pouring into the material world with the prepared positions. At the same time, with the positions in place, if water elemental life forms want to cause trouble, Roland will kill as many as dare to come.

In addition to the arrangement of the positions, Roland also had to prepare a plan to deal with the Frost Forge and remove the bomb that was already inside the Frost Forge.

Although the Frost Forge was severely damaged due to the operation of the Frost Dwarves, it still has very high value and can be used after repairing it.

While Roland was struggling to set up his position, inside Ice Stone City, Hela was also successfully collecting all kinds of information in the city.

Through her ability to become virtual, Hela placed a large number of small undead throughout Ice Stone City to eavesdrop on all the movements in the city. At the same time, Hela also pulled back the gray crow that was playing in the dark elemental world and took it with her to lurk in the palace of Ice Stone City.

The Frost Clan was truly weak and downtrodden. In the huge palace, Hela could not sense the existence of a single high-level transcendent, and the strongest was only at the level of a mid-level transcendent.

However, despite this perception, Hela was still very cautious and careful, maintaining her virtual state throughout the entire process to observe and confirm everywhere in the palace.

By reading government affairs, eavesdropping on secret conversations, constructing dreams through magic, and stealing intelligence from sleeping dwarves, Hela also figured out the general situation within the Frost Clan. Afterwards, Hela took Gray Crow on a field investigation.

After thoroughly checking the entire palace, Hela finally confirmed that the Frost Clan really did not have a single high-level transcendent. The strongest was only a five-ring transcendent, and he was not even a king, but a dwarf elder.

As for the king of the Frost Clan, he is just a four-ring transcendent.

In addition, the Frost Clan also used the Frost Forge to create some powerful rune mechas. After learning the news, Hela personally ran into the dwarf’s secret arsenal to confirm it.

According to the internal classification of the dwarves, the Frost Clan has about twelve Rune Mechs, including one King-class, three Knight-class and eight Scout-class.

These are the decisive battle weapons that the Frost Dwarves developed from their unique Frost Rune technology.

Standing in front of the king-class extraordinary mecha, Hela raised her head and looked thoughtfully at the three-meter-tall rune mecha in front of her.

Although the rune mecha in front of him was a bit old, it still remained clean and tidy due to careful maintenance, and exuded a powerful aura.

Different from traditional extraordinary armor and the committee’s strange mechanical armor, every part of the rune mecha in front of us is tightly connected together, as if it were one.

Traditional super armor is composed of several parts. Although they can be assembled, they are actually independent parts. The design concept of the strange armor is also modeled after the traditional super armor. They are all assembled from independent parts. It’s just that compared with traditional super armor, the strange armor has a little more assembly parts.

But the Rune Mecha is different. The mecha in front of you can almost be seen as a complete whole.

Although this means that it will be more troublesome to replace the parts of the Rune Mech, it also allows the Rune Mech to burst out with more powerful power.

According to the memories Roland glimpsed from other extraordinary people, the Dwarf King can burst out a combat power comparable to that of the Six Rings when using this mecha.

Looking at the rune mecha in front of her, Hela wanted to take one back to the committee and give it to the machinists, perhaps they could come up with some new technology.

Hela turned her head and looked to the side. A total of eight rune mechas were neatly placed in this secret arsenal.

The Frost King directly controls eight rune mechas.

However, this rune mecha is of little significance.

The most these rune mechas can do is to fight back and forth with one of the factions in the previous Northern Civil War. If they fight against the committee, it will be a pure crushing victory.
