Although the Frost Giants reign over the Glacial Plateau, they aren’t particularly wealthy.
The entire tribe is essentially constructed from simple giant wooden bars combined with ice blocks, using the glacier cave entrance at the back to build a simple array of houses.
At the back of the tribe, under the glacier, lie the carcasses of a few slain Glacial Giant Beasts.
In this cold climate, preserved in ice blocks, they serve as a ans of preservation.
The at from these beasts is likely the most valuable asset of this Frost Giant tribe.
Food is always of such importance.
Special protective asures have been constructed around them.
Poverty, backwardness.
Even with the power of the Frost Giants to dominate the ice field, not every creature can live comfortably in such a harsh and barren environnt.
There’s a reason why the land outside Central Earth World on the Seta Continent is called the Barbaric Land by humans.
The poverty of the Frost Giant tribe was beyond Austin’s expectations.
He had already abandoned the thought of unexpected wealth.
At least after breaking through this Frost Giant tribe, the harvest was barely adequate.
Twenty or so Frost Giants were captured to beco the Dragon Nest Tribe’s workforce, although they were all won, old, and weak, their sheer size still played an important role in the Dragon Nest Tribe’s production and construction.
Adding the few white Young Dragons, along with the ice wolves and snowland werewolves, there were quite a few subsidiary benefits to the Dragon Nest Tribe’s developnt towards the plateau.
The harvest was barely satisfactory.
However, just as he was planning to leave, the Dragon Nest Beastman soldiers searching the area suddenly brought over a longsword encrusted with Golden Jade.
"Report to Your Highness, we found this sword in a place where things were stored, along with so weapons and armor."
Upon seeing the gleaming Golden Longsword, Austin’s pupils shrank abruptly.
It wasn’t the instinctive awakening of a Giant Dragon’s love for treasure.
Rather, upon seeing this Golden Longsword, he thought of a certain possibility.
"Where’s that place, take to see it!"
The voice was filled with undeniable authority.
Soon, Austin was taken by the beastman soldiers to a remote corner of the Frost Giant tribe’s miscellaneous house.
At this ti, several broken and decayed boxes were being carried out by the beastman soldiers.
Weapons stained with blood, rusty helts and armor, inside the decayed boxes were dry magic potions that had lost all Magic Power, so tattered human clothes, and a decayed human skeletal head!
Indeed, it was human!
Perhaps many years ago, a traveling rchant human team mistakenly passed through here and were eliminated by the Frost Giants.
Human traces had once reached here!
"Why would there be human footprints here, is it possible that by crossing the ice field, one would reach the outskirts of the human realm?"
Regarding the items left behind by an unknown party.
For a mont, Austin seed sowhat puzzled.
Unfortunately, he pondered for a while but couldn’t think of an answer.
However, regardless, humans had once arrived here, that’s certain.
When necessary, the Dragon Nest Tribe needs to expend effort to explore further.
Contact with the Human World brings both good and bad, but regardless of the good or bad, having control of the initiative is definitely correct.
Yet, staring at this Golden Longsword before him, Austin instinctively felt sothing was odd.
Firstly, the sword wasn’t small, spanning two ters in length.
Secondly, it was encrusted with jade stones, looking extrely splendid, but was realistically just a decoration and had little practical use.
It appeared to be rely a decorative item.
Moreover, those armors and weapons on the ground, during wars in the Duchies of the Human World, soldiers who were peasants still wielded manure forks on the battlefield while these armors and weapons remained extrely valuable, which was inaccessible to regular folks.
Additionally, the beastman soldiers continuously carried out jewels and jade stones.
These possessions made the group look more like a purposely planned delegation, eventually being quietly exterminated by this Frost Giant tribe.
If that wasn’t the case, it’s hard to speculate why these valuable human items would appear here.
Why would a human delegation appear here?
What was their purpose?
Austin thought for a while, but couldn’t find an answer.
So, he gave up thinking.
These things seed to belong to ages past.
Obviously, regardless of who was behind them, whatever their purpose, their ultimate demise in this boundless Wilderness was of no concern.
This matter, at most, deeply embedded a seed of caution in Austin’s heart.
After collecting the miscellaneous items from the Frost Giant tribe, Austin and the remaining beastman soldiers left and returned.
...
The Seventh Outpost’s war brought significant losses to the Dragon Nest Beastn.
Post-war statistics showed nearly three thousand beastman soldiers died instantly, and the lucky few who escaped with their lives were all injured, suffering severe losses.
However, after this war, the nearby Frost Giant tribe was already destroyed.
Danger significantly reduced.
With ample manpower and resources support from the Dragon Nest Tribe, the Seventh Outpost was quickly established.
This was largely due to the twenty or so Frost Beastman slaves.
Although most were rely young, old, weak won, the large body size and formidable power greatly accelerated the establishnt of the Dragon Nest Tribe’s Seventh Outpost, which played a significant role in daily production and construction.
Subsequently, with assistance from the absorbed Frost Giant Clan, Frost Giants, snowland werewolves, and other tribes, the Seventh Outpost gradually began exploring towards the Glacial Plateau and proceeded to defeat and incorporate so indigenous tribes living in the Glacial Plateau, assimilating them into the Dragon Nest Tribe.
Using these local intelligent beings as guides, the Dragon Nest Tribe gradually started exploring the outskirts of the Glacial Plateau.
This was of great significance for guarding against the dangers arising from the Glacial Plateau.
At least it could prevent the enormous casualty caused by the previous Frost Giant attack.
anwhile, during this period, the Dragon Nest Tribe also discovered a considerable amount of Magic Ore and so precious Magic Material Plants on the Glacial Plateau, which had significant implications for the developnt of the Dragon Nest Tribe.
However, the exploration of the Seventh Outpost held little relevance to Austin.
After presiding over a solemn funeral ceremony, Austin took the opportunity to interrogate the Frost Giant slaves about the matters regarding those human envoys.
Unfortunately, those adult Frost Beastman won left behind were rely auxiliary personnel of the tribe, having little understanding of past events.
All they knew was that the group of human envoys probably passed over the far side of the glacier over ten years ago, uncertain of their destination, discovered by the Frost Giant tribe, and annihilated by them.
Upon killing the envoys, Frost Giant leader Albuda issued a gag order.
Thus, they had no way of knowing.
This further increased Austin’s perplexity, but due to the lack of intelligence, he had no choice but to let it go.
Then returned to the Dragon Nest Tribe Main City.
