"Alright, Lady Trovik, please give your orders." Amelia was slightly dazed, but upon seeing Teresa's full expression of impatience, she responded in a low voice.
"First, go get clean white snow and put it in a pot, then have Laine transform it into water, hurry up." The female sorcerer finally gave up on wearing tight pants. She took a blue velvet long dress from her Space Ring and changed into it, then covered herself with a blanket.
Amelia did not say another word. After loading the snow into the iron pot, she delivered it to Laine's hands: "Lady Trovik asked me to bring these to you, to have you transform the snow in the pot into water."
"Alright." Laine extended a hand, energy gathering a blue flame in his palm through the Iron Gloves. The snow in the iron pot quickly melted, and soon a pot of warm water was handed to the mercenary: "Here, work quickly, the water cools down fast in this weather."
"Understood."
The inside of the carriage seemed to quiet down, so Laine turned his attention to other things. He understood why the danger of the Hodalen Mountain was reduced because this place was extremely flat and open. In clear weather, Laine could easily see all the scenery within thousands of meters while on horseback, leaving no room for bandits and demons to hide, as the entire mountain range was covered with meadows and white snow.
These bandits and Beastmen, they absolutely couldn't take on humans head-on. They relied on ambush and surprise attacks, repeatedly striking supply lines and splitting human lines, but in such an open field of view, the safety of the caravan was not an issue.
Taking this opportunity, the White Wolf Knight pondered how to act.
In his past life, Laine was also a history enthusiast, having read many books. The background of this world was very similar to the Western fantasy he had read, with swords and magic, blood and fire, and a feudal system constructing this world.
However, this was different from the books he had read. Laine understood the settings of The Ring of Power and Dungeons & Dragons.
The world of The Ring of Power was interesting; it was a low magic world where Order Faction seemed to be constantly suppressed by evil forces. The human capital was under siege by an army, and it seemed through countless impossible efforts, evil Sauron was only defeated by the relentless efforts of the Ring Protection Team.
However, if you really read the original, you would know that's not the case at all.
The protagonist's enemy Sauron, the major BOSS of Middle-earth, was merely the deputy of the real major BOSS Morgoth. The real major BOSS Morgoth was only one of the stronger deities (called Villa in The Ring of Power). His power was limited and never as great as Eru, the Father of All, whose power was the greatest and infinite.
To summarize, it can be described in simple terms.
Gandalf: Eru Father God, isn't it awesome that Aragon becomes Human Emperor?
Eru: It is awesome!
Gandalf: Do the Villa also support him?
Eru: Of course!
That's why the Ring Protection Team always has miraculous survivals, why numerous factions do everything they can to help them because Aragon's future as Human Emperor is predestined, decided by the Council of Gods. Even if an accident occurs after Gandalf and the Flame Demon duel and he dies, Eru could directly intervene, resurrect him in full health, and upgrade him to a White Robe, just for this reason.
Though it seemed on edge, in reality, it was as stable as an old dog. With the support of Eru and most Villa, Order Faction held the advantage. Even if the situation seemed irreparable, Eru would come to sort it out in the end (actually, nothing in The Ring of Power could threaten Eru, not even Morgoth's apocalypse could force this sole deity out).
The story background of Dungeons & Dragons is a bit more chaotic, with places like the Bottomless Abyss and the Nine Hells in the lower planes. Evil forces seemed incredibly strong, with Order Faction and evil forces sharing the sky.
But that's just superficial. Laine knows that Order Faction is actually much stronger than evil forces. The higher-level beings and deities in the upper planes simply wanted peace of mind, hence they drove these evil forces into the lower planes. As long as they deemed it necessary, evil forces could still be stirred up, angels from the Seven Hills Celestial Mountain once slaughtered through the entire Bottomless Abyss, and the Nine Hells was just a piece of paper contract. In the backgrounds of Dungeons & Dragons, there are often stories of unnamed adventurer teams defeating mighty demons in the Abyss, and even stories of a team of Paladins capturing an entire layer of the Abyss and ruling it.
Compared to The Ring of Power, in Dungeons & Dragons, the supreme deity AO, although very strong, was not completely invincible. Some deities came very close to the supreme deity's strength, but he later grew tired of his duties and gave them up (Ancient Death God Yeager), or received an unexpected blow that significantly reduced his power, leading to a successful reincarnation (First Generation Magic Goddess).
Unlike The Ring of Power, Dungeons & Dragons is a high magic world where deities, in anger, could destroy a nation with a thought. However many cannon fodder are useless to the deities.
This world is completely different.
As a White Wolf Knight, Laine had been to White Wolf City and read the White Wolf Holy Scripture, which recorded much history. During the first Chaos Invasion, the White Wolf War God personally descended to confront the Chaos Army. According to the scripture, Yurik wielded a warhammer, wore a silver-gray White Wolf cloak, and was clad in a full set of divine armor. He led his Holy Spirit White Wolf Knights into the Chaos Array, personally killing more than thirty Chaos Champions and Demon Princes, and took down over five hundred Chaos Warriors by himself, not to mention countless lower-ranked soldiers. The scripture described Yurik's presence as "invincible, as strong as white flames scorching the earth in the depths of winter."
