Chapter 136: Embark on a journey

Qiao An originally planned to rent a horse at the "Heguang Hotel", and stored it at the post at Leiden Port. He spent a little money and asked the business traveler Shun Road south to return to Delin Town. However, the partners have made better arrangements. Dick, Roger, and Tom gathered together to buy a sturdy and docile foal for Joan as a parting gift.
The horse's mane resembled a smooth satin, and the whole body was dark, with only a prismatic white spot on the forehead. The clear eyes looked at the young wizard who was approaching. He actively lowered his head and rubbed his arm, as if to guess. This is his new owner.
Before leaving, Joan remembered another thing, opened the dimension bag, took out the "cold-blood trident", asked Roger to return to Weiss, hugged and said goodbye to the three friends, and then stepped on the horse and flew away. The galloping young mage galloped in the direction of sunrise, gradually fading out of Dick, Roger, and Tom's vision, and finally blended into the golden glow of the horizon, disappearing at the end of the horizon.

In this world called "Vares", more than two-thirds of the space on the planet's surface is occupied by oceans. The two most famous oceans are the "Meteor Ocean" and the "Storm Ocean", with two floating between them. The continental plate, of which the smaller area is commonly known as the "new continent", and the new continent across the sea is the "old continent"-the official name is "Atlas continent".
As a whole, the New World has a narrow and long terrain, resembling a dumbbell with two big ends and a thin center. The two "big heads" are the Vernoia region in the northern hemisphere and the Grablen region in the southern hemisphere. Grabellen’s thin handle is the famous
Sword Isthmus
. It is said that this long isthmus was once submerged by sea water. At that time, there was no new continent. Wilnoa and Grabellen were just two across the sea. islands. Later, the climate of the Valais world changed drastically, causing the ocean water level to drop. The continental shelf that was originally submerged below the water surface was exposed to form the "sword isthmus", which opened up the land transportation line between Wilnoa and Graberen. The two islands connected by the isthmus together form a new continent.
The "Wilnoa" area in the southern section of the Sword Isthmus is where Joan was born and grew up. The local aborigines divided Wilnoya into several plates according to the myth epic passed down from the old to the old, along the east coast from south to north were Mossberheim, Yalfheim, Midgard, and Jortonheim , Nilfheim and Helheim at the North Pole. In addition, there are Warnerheim on the west coast, Asgard on the top of the Genting Highlands between the east and west coasts, and "Swatheim" under the "Golden Abyss" golden gallon- -Also called "dark territory" by the surface residents, it is said to be the hometown of the dark elves who fear the sun.
Compared with the old continent, which has many ancient civilizations and a total human population of more than 300 million, the new continent developed late, lacking historical and cultural heritage, and there is no independent and powerful human country. Before the local indigenous people have time to complete the reunification The east and west coasts of the New World have been occupied by colonists from the Old World. To date, five of the nine regions of Wilnoya have established colonies. Among them, the Musbelheim colony belongs to the "Sea Kingdom" of the old continent. The colonies of Alfheim and Midgard are both It is the overseas province of the old world's hegemony, the Holy Asham Empire, and Jotunheim and Warnerheim on the west coast are firmly occupied by the Fijian Kingdom, another great power of the old continent.
Since the beginning of this century, the traditional powers of the old continent have successively set off waves of the magic industry revolution. The rapid growth of large industries and new technologies has spurred the population of all countries. The land has become scarcer and more expensive. In the old era, the torrents of capital and industry drove down. People who lost their land had to leave the countryside to find another way to make a living. There are only two ways for them to make a living: either enter the city and live in a slum, try to transform into an industry Workers; or be more daring, replace all your possessions with a ticket to the New World, go to that vast virgin land to chase your dreams, and if the goddess of destiny blesses, maybe you can break out of the world and become a crowd The manor of Muliangtian and groups of slaves.
Every poor man from the old continent has the dream of making a fortune in his heart, and every sailing ship on the coast of Wilnoya is filled with this "adventure", which has never been interrupted for 20 years. Today, the total number of immigrants settled in the New World has exceeded tens of millions. In the foreseeable future, the phenomenon of large-scale population migration from the Old Continent to the New Continent will continue.
Relying on a superior social organization system, more developed magic and technological level, and sharper weapons, colonists from the old continent soon established a foothold on the coastal plains of the new continent. First, settlements and trading posts were established. With the continuous migration of immigrants, the population is increasing day by day, and temporary settlements are expanded into permanent villages and towns, and then relying on ports with convenient shipping and trade to develop a metropolis with more than 100,000 residents. The prosperity is not worse than the historical cities of the old continent's home country. . Joan’s destination, Leiden Port, is one of the most famous port cities on the east coast of Wilnoa and the capital of the colony of Alfheim.
In the Yalfheim area, there are few industrial and commercial metropolises like Port Leiden, and more of them are rural towns like Delin Town, which are surrounded by mountains and rivers, have simple folk customs, and follow traditional lifestyles. It is determined by local geographic conditions.
The most prominent natural feature of the Alfheim region is the rolling forest. The human settlements are divided by large and small forests. The dense juniper, spruce, fir, red pine and masson pine block the villages and towns. It is difficult to develop a large-scale city during transportation. Colonists from the old continent mainly lived near the estuaries and ports along the east coast, and the edge of the jungle in the midwest was the settlement of the tribes of the indigenous
Asa
tribes; and in the depths of the forest, firs were reported There are often elves and goblins living away from the world, and humans living in towns rarely have the opportunity to witness these mysterious creatures with their own eyes.
On the morning of March 26, Joan departed from the town of Delin, located south of Alfheim, and headed alone to the port of Leiden on the northeast waterfront. In order to be able to reach Leiden College on the first day of school on April 1, Joan had to take some risks and chose a travel route that traversed the jungle and was inaccessible.
