334 Ice, Snow, and Blood

“We mostly grow Ice Fruits. They are native to the land and can take root even in the cold,” said Tristana. She was surprised at Su Wan’s question. She answered everything honestly.

The Frostwolf Territory had dedicated a small area, especially for the plantation and rearing of the Ice Fruits. It fed millions of people in and around the area.

Wild beasts couldn’t enter the fields because the only opening was through the main entrance, which was always guarded.

Su Wan was a little disappointed. Her fields were open from all sides, so anyone could attack the fields once they got close to the territory.

Su Wan explained the problem she was facing in her territory. “I have yet to find a way to protect the fields. The terrain is too difficult to manage. Forget the fields, it takes enormous effort to develop the territory in this terrain.”

“Lord Su Wan, I feel like you can develop your territory even more if you leave this terrain and choose somewhere else to settle,” said Tristana.

Su Wan didn’t know what to say. She didn’t really like this area, but it was perfect for the Dark Demon Dragon and other Dark-Types. She couldn’t just leave.

Su Wan had expected Tristana to give her some advice. She hadn’t expected her to tell her to choose another place instead.

Although having a Dark territory had its disadvantages, it had its advantages too. If it wasn’t for the Dark-Types and Xu Yuan, she wouldn’t have gotten this strong.

“How do the human cities outside deal with similar problems?” asked Su Wan.

“It’s hard to say. The problems faced by different cities are different in nature,” said Tristana. “However, the people outside try to find a way to adapt to the problem and use it to their advantage instead of trying to solve it entirely. They also make more allies to make up for any drawbacks. Some sign contracts with other Lords to use a portion of their land because it might be safer.”

The last sentence made Su Wan think. She had gained a magic statue and an ore vein. Perhaps she could use that to solve her problems.

Su Wan was deep in thought. However, in the end, she couldn’t come up with any good ideas. She wanted to discuss it with Xu Yuan later.

Su Wan forced out a smile. She needed to get stronger. Xu Yuan still had a long way to go to reach Level 100. She wanted to explore the Divine Kingdom, but it would have to wait for now.

Su Wan had heard about Blood Coffins buried under the roots of the Ancient God Sin Tree. The Blood Coffin was supposedly in the Vampire Castle near the Ice Empire. Coincidentally, Su Wan had found it, but the Transcendent Vampire Duke was still asleep.

“Lady Tristana, I heard that there are many vampires in the Ice Empire. I wonder… have you heard about those evil things?” asked Su Wan.

Claude couldn’t help but smile. The Lord was surrounded by Dark-Types, yet she called vampires evil!

“Vampires?” Tristana didn’t understand why Su Wan suddenly wanted to know about them.

“That’s right. There are traces of vampires near my friend’s territory, so I want to find out more about them.”

“Uncle Claude knows more about vampires than I do. He fought in the Blood War.”

“A Blood War?” asked Su Wan. “What is that? Can you tell me about it?”

Su Wan wondered if there were hidden secrets or treasures that she could find where the war had taken place.

Claude looked at Su Wan. “Many vampires lived in the Ice Empire in the past. They ruled over a huge chunk of land. They always collected a large amount of blood as taxes. Back then, the Ice Empire cooperated with the vampires because they were too strong to offend. The situation changed after a massive earthquake that caused the ancient ruins to merge with our mainland. That ruin is the Eternal Land of Frost, especially known for its Frost Ores.”

“The vampires wanted to occupy the territory that had these ore veins. A conflict broke out between them and the residents of the Ice Empire. The anger and resentment built up as the two sides couldn’t come to an agreement. Eventually, a war broke out. The Ice Empire won the war in the end and gained control of the Eternal Land of Frost. The vampires were all killed, even their Demigod-Level vampire prince. The vampire population dwindled and eventually, they disappeared. Their traces can be found in some remote places, but that’s all. Nothing remains of their race.”

Su Wan was deep in thought. ‘Could the Vampire Duke have survived the war?’

“Lady Tristana, to tell you the truth, my friend and I have captured a vampire that seems to be asleep. He is not weak, and I want to recruit him. Do you have any ideas on how to wake him?”

That was one advantage of having Dark-Types as heroes. They could recruit anybody and everybody. They didn’t have to be as cautious as the Light-Types. If the Light-Types recruited a dark creature, the morale of their troops might shake.

The Ice Empire was neutral. They were at war with the vampires, but they were mostly peaceful people.

“Lord Su Wan, could I ask about the strength of this vampire you found?” asked Claude.

“The vampire is asleep in a coffin. He is estimated to be no lower than Level 50,” said Su Wan.
