An Yi knew about this icy plain.
In the game, this area was not unlocked until a certain major version update, and for a long time, you could only look at that snow-capped mountain from afar.
This means that even in the game, this area is only unlocked after all players have reached a certain level of proficiency.
In An Yijiu's past life, neither heroes nor demons had developed this region.
It's so cold here. If the heroes want to keep warm, they need to have a certain amount of resilience. Those who don't have resilience can only rely on magic to tough it out.
The persistent [Cold] effect will continuously damage the hero, essentially placing them in a vast area that deals continuous damage.
Apart from elemental creatures, most demons cannot survive here.
Because there are so few resources here.
Not a blade of grass grows here, only endless frozen soil, where neither herbivorous nor carnivorous demons can find any food.
Furthermore, since no civilization has ever been born here since ancient times, the demons have only symbolically placed some elemental creatures here to guard the area.
The dwarves know there is a special metal here, but that doesn't mean they will tell the demons.
This is a secret that all the surviving dwarves have guarded for thousands of years.
Oh no, I should say that they had no opportunity to develop this area before.
There are actually many more high-strength materials available for use within the territories previously owned by the dwarves.
However, these places are now inhabited by demons, and they are undoubtedly areas heavily protected by the demons.
Even if the heroes manage to break through, they will be subjected to concentrated attacks by the demons and will soon be driven back by them.
Instead of competing for resources, it's better to exploit an "information gap".
This is an area that neither side has developed, which means that neither side knew the value of this area before.
The dwarfs have now relayed this information to the Saintess's squad.
So the current situation is:
The demons didn't know, but the hero did.
However, let's return to the previous question.
Even heroes can hardly move around normally in this area.
“Let’s try it now,” said the dwarf Atu.
"Give it a try?" Lycorina asked, puzzled.
“It’s about… what we need, and what we can do,” said the dwarf Atu.
After saying that, he started explaining something to Irene in Dwarven language.
Irene listened and nodded, then explained to the four members of the Saintess Squad:
"He meant that we should conduct some surveys and tests."
Only after exploration and testing can we know what the heroes need.
For example, equipment that can protect against the cold.
The heroes' ability to withstand the cold varies, right?
That means we need to manufacture these equipment according to different standards.
Just like the equipment for a warrior with low resilience, it might need to be made with more materials and have more magic arrays for warmth.
Warriors with high resilience can require fewer items, saving a lot of time in crafting equipment.
It's important to know that these are areas that even the high-ranking combatants of the demon race are unwilling to enter.
Crafting equipment for use in these regions would certainly take a considerable amount of time, and it would also require selecting suitable personnel to enter the regions.
If all equipment were to adhere to a uniform standard, it would take even longer.
“Surveying and testing, huh… Alright, let’s give it a try!” Lycorina nodded firmly.
This frozen land provides the strategic support needed by the heroes and is an area that the demons have not yet fully explored.
If this area can be developed, the heroes could even use this frozen land as a stronghold that can be both offensive and defensive.
The demons could hardly move an inch, but the heroes could roam freely as if it were their home turf.
The heroes can use this place as an entrance to penetrate deep into the demon realm, and the demons are also unable to effectively block the attacks from this frozen land.
So, in the following period, the Saintess Squad began to gather some of the heroes and start conducting experiments in this area.
Currently, the activities of the [Chaos Demon] within the Demon Realm are quite stable, consistently achieving planned results in different cities.
Once the [Chaos Demon] starts its operation in a region, the Baron's City can be occupied with virtually no effort.
The city of Viscounts was the next to be subjugated.
In other words, the heroes have now completely dominated the entire demon border in the name of the "Chaos Demons"!
The demons didn't even realize they were human; they genuinely regarded them as a large, ambitious demonic organization.
Ultimately, the heroes will arrive in the Earl's city and become local rulers, but without directly threatening the Earl's family.
At first, the existence of the Chaotic Demon caused "the demons to be filled with fear".
However, the demon counts began to realize that the Chaotic Demons had no intention of taking action against the leaders of different regions, and instead relaxed their guard.
What they were thinking was that although the [Chaos Demons] were causing a lot of trouble, they just wanted the strongest position below the lord.
The Earl's family is not something that can be easily taken down, so it's normal for [Chaos Demon] to stop here.
It was precisely because the heroes stopped here that they were temporarily transformed from enemies of all demon nobles into enemies of demon nobles below the rank of count.
In other words, it poses a greater threat to viscounts and barons, but only a potential threat to earls.
The counts also knew that the [Chaos Demon] would have to think twice before taking over their families.
Some counts sensed the danger and took the initiative to drive the [Chaos Demon] out of the city.
The way the heroes operate makes them impossible for the enemy to find, and they don't foolishly go and establish any headquarters.
The [Chaos Demons] are famous in any city, but before a certain demon organization is suddenly destroyed overnight, they are as if they do not exist in the city.
For example, a normal demon organization would definitely occupy a territory, and then increase its followers, enhance its strength, and gain profits from that small territory.
However, the Chaotic Demons seem uninterested in these resources; they appear to be merely chasing after an empty title.
He conquered the entire world, making the whole demon race aware of the existence of the Chaotic Demon, yet he didn't use this reputation to gain any profit.
It's like a video creator becomes famous, but instead of livestreaming to earn money, advertising, or selling products, they just release abstract videos every day to disgust the audience.
Si is now considered to be disgusted by the [Chaotic Demons], which are now considered to be the middle and lower classes of the entire demon race.
The three demon clans were also unaware of the situation; the appearance of the [Chaotic Demon] seemed to be purely for their own amusement.
Just like the name of this organization—
0 Chaos Demons.
They were just causing trouble for the demons.
He wants nothing but fame, no money, and no resources.
Of course, the Chaotic Demons will still raid the headquarters of different demon organizations.
However, compared to the resources they could actually obtain, the miscellaneous items they plundered were nothing at all.
They raided the entire hill belonging to the enemy gang, but didn't occupy it; they just took a few valuable items and ran.
The demon organization that attempted to negotiate with the Chaotic Demons using these valuable items in hopes of finding a way to survive was ultimately slaughtered by the heroes.
Anyway, killing them won't change anything.
The heroes come to the demon realm to level up; who wants to play house with the demons?
[Chaos Demon] continues its relentless advance through the demon realm, raising the average level of all heroes.
Meanwhile, a test targeting the ice field, which would take a considerable amount of time, was slowly unfolding.
The first thing to test is the [resilience] required for the adventurers at different depths within the frozen ground.
First, the less resilient warriors approach from the edge...
As a result, several heroes immediately entered the [Frost] and [Freezing] statuses.
This condition will immediately cause a layer of frost to form on the exposed skin of the heroes.
Areas of the body covered in frost will quickly lose sensation and become noticeably stiff.
It felt like I was truly frozen to the bone.
This "frost" will quickly spread from the exposed areas of skin and penetrate deeper into the skin.
If the brave warriors in charge of the experiment were to remove their shirts after being in a "frost" state for a period of time, it would be visible that their heads, shoulders, and arms were covered with a layer of frost, which extended to their chests and backs.
Lycorina's [Purification] can be lifted, but the frost will not disappear after it is lifted; it will only gradually recover as the heroes move.
Like taking something out of the freezer and letting it thaw slowly. (Cheers)
Not being able to remove a negative state is like staying in a refrigerator indefinitely.
Once back to room temperature, the frost will slowly dissipate on its own; complete thawing will take some time. (Liu)
After testing by various brave adventurers, the goal is to completely avoid the effects of the cold in the icy plains...
At least 100 points of resilience are required!
This is a very frightening result.
What does 100 points of resilience mean?
A level 20 [White Demon] only has 40 points of resilience.
At present, most warriors, unless they are warriors who mainly or secondarily allocate points to resilience, cannot reach hundreds of points of resilience!
In other words, those with high resilience and those with strong resilience have priority in entering this icy plain.
Then, there are the high-magic heroes who can protect themselves with magic.
As for the Strength and Agility Warriors and the High Agility Warriors, they are ranked at the lowest priority among these five mainstream warrior types.
The team has two members with resilience levels below 100, and the vast majority of them will be excluded from this operation.
