There is a common geographical knowledge.
The geographical landscape where the poles of the Earth are covered with ice and snow is a state that is very rare in ordinary environnts.
Either the ice caps cover the globe, or the surface is completely governed by oceans; this is what people would see most of the ti.
Humans happen to live during the period when the ice caps began to disappear due to planetary activities.
From a broader perspective, it can be said that they have encountered an extrely rare special period.
And now.
This book, "Northern Enertifa Chronicles," in front of Ronald.
Makes him suddenly detach from the common sense brought from Earth and notice this slight peculiarity.
This is another world!
Even just from the perspective of probability, the planet beneath his feet likely doesn't have an environnt with extrely low ice caps, let alone explorers discovering a habitable special environnt there.
—Perhaps such a place is the work of a certain school of thought on the mysterious side?
Ronald did not deny this possibility in his heart.
But given the previous discussions on the dust behemoths' ability to alter the environnt, an extrely dangerous thought nonetheless appeared in his mind.
If the polar ice caps on this planet were to lt in a short ti.
What would the world beco?
...
From a more basic direction, the port city of Springs is certainly dood.
The climate environnt all over the world would also undergo significant changes.
"..."
"Can't it be sothing less stressful..."
Ronald couldn't help but mutter and continue reading.
Although this travelogue doesn't have much account of the Peak of Ling Guang, carefully looking at the author's experiences in the surrounding areas could provide so help in future decisions.
[This extrely cold land is quite interesting.]
[In winter, everything seems to fall into slumber, as if so invisible existence is affecting everything in the snow world.]
[But after a while, the situation becos different. After winter ends, the things on this land start to rejuvenate, and everything I encounter seems to exhibit its vitality.]
...
[In April, guided by the sunlight, I ca to a location sowhat to the east.]
[There is a camp built in the snow here, but it has been abandoned for a long ti, and there are no signs of activity around. The camp's gate was covered by ice and snow blockades, and after breaking through, there were rocks obstructing my way, making it regrettably impossible for an individual to enter.]
[A very strange camp... In my view, in comparison to the cold climate of this land, I find the strange air from before more acceptable.]
[Who can possibly live in a place like this?]
...
[This northern exploration lasted six months; unfortunately, I didn't see the legendary edge-of-the-world great ice wall, just as with the boundary of the infinitely falling ocean, the ultimate goal of this exploration remained unaccomplished.]
[However, it is said that a group of exiles ca from the east and established a city near the ice and snow zone, nad Waterfall City.]
[There, I might have the opportunity to na the toad I discovered in the snow world… It seems inappropriate to na a new discovery after myself; let's call it the "snowland toad" for now! In a newly established city, they should be interested in sothing that can suppress pain.]
"..."
"So that's how old the origin of the snowland toad is."
Upon finishing his reading, Ronald placed the "Northern Enertifa Chronicles" back in its place, recalling the encounter back in Black Mountain.
At that ti, to suppress the pain from his back injury, pseudonyd rchant Heloise gave him an incredibly effective shot, and he unexpectedly learned about the origin of such a thing this way.
Thinking of this, Ronald glanced around.
He had so thoughts on Heloise's whereabouts before.
Ronald originally thought that with his return to this world, with Heloise's abilities, she would inevitably gather the news and then join him, which seed more reliable than searching like finding a needle in a haystack.
However, this subjective assumption still went wrong.
To ensure her absolute safety, Heloise might have largely severed her connections to the mysterious side.
And losing contact with the mysterious side, naturally, she wouldn't know about Ronald's return to this world.
So now, there are two more direct thods.
The first is to utilize the abilities of the mysterious side; whether prophetic spells or other ans, they can provide significant assistance.
The second is to think of thods from the regular side to achieve the sa effect.
Ronald first ruled out the first point.
With his current ability, as soon as the mysterious side gets the news, it's quite likely soone with ill intentions would pop up with plans against Heloise.
As for the second point...
There, Ronald has his own inclination.
He himself has exhibited curiosity about things like expedition.
In this way, joining Entroad's expedition team would not cause so people to assu connections.
And if such an expedition were successful, the current status of Entroad would likely receive a bit of publicity so that his na appearing in the news could safely lead Heloise to the information.
In this age of limited technological ans, this can be seen as one of the more suitable thods Ronald thought of.
"..."
"Better keep reading..."
At this ti, Ronald's eyes again fell on the bookshelf.
Just now, the "Northern Enertifa Chronicles" provided him with a hint that the dust behemoth likely existing beneath the ice sheets only starts its revival process after winter.
Conservatively estimating, Ronald has more than a month of ti now.
During this ti, he could continue soaking in this place holding precious books for a week.
Once the expedition's activities start, he can join these people in going to the poles and resolve the current issues simultaneously.
As things begin to return on track, the trend of improvent can be seen...
Boom!
Suddenly, the sound of an explosion reached Ronald's ears.
This sound is of course much smaller than the major explosion incident in Springs.
Yet being able to reach his ears through the noise created by the waterfall… Sothing important is definitely happening in the city!
"Tsk—"
Disturbed by such a sudden commotion, Ronald's mood naturally wasn't great.
The frequency of incidents in Waterfall City is one after another; can ordinary people really live well in such a city?
Ronald put down the book and turned to leave; the guard standing at the door did not have his hearing, so he appeared a bit confused:
"Mr. Ronald?"
"I'll leave it here for today, I'll co back tomorrow."
Ronald waved a hand to interrupt the other party.
"..."
"Starting from the relationship of the entire planet and the sky, will construct our cognition."
Then softly chanted a spell.
The next mont, Ronald flew out of the Administration Hall, heading directly to the site of the explosion.
