Mage Joan
Chapter 3026: Winter is coming
Qiao Ann had an inexplicable hunch for the prospect of the War of Independence.
The Battle of Leiden Port is likely to be the colorful movement of this war. In the foreseeable future, no matter whether in Midgard or Jotunheim, there will be no more general wars of the same scale. The focus of the struggle will also shift from the battlefield to the negotiating table.
Of course, this is just his wishful thinking, and there is no reason at all.
On the night of Leiden Harbor’s recovery, Joan received a letter from the Kolasburg Palace.
His Majesty Roland has listened to the report on the Battle of Leiden Harbor, and has sent a letter to congratulate Dr. Vader on returning to his hometown as a "liberator".
Qiao An wanted to complain about the flaws in the letter from His Majesty the Emperor.
In fact, Leiden Port is not his birthplace, but considering that his alma mater is in Leiden Port, it is fine to say that it is the "second hometown".
In addition to polite words, His Majesty the Emperor also mentioned two things in his letter.
The first is to remind Qiao An to pay attention to the turmoil in the financial market. The news of Leiden’s victory has not been published. If he wants to make a little money, then this is the best time to buy “independent bonds” on a large scale.
Qiao An couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.
His Majesty the Emperor is still so obsessed with wealth, but whenever he smells a chance for speculation and profit, he immediately becomes excited and eager to try it like a cat smelling fishy.
In fact, it is not necessary for the Emperor to remind him that once the news of the victory of Leiden is published in the newspapers, the price of the "independent bonds" issued by the Continental Congress on the Colasburg Stock Exchange will inevitably skyrocket.
Qiao An holds an independent bond with a denomination of 1 million quintals. At this time tomorrow, it is conservatively estimated that this asset can appreciate at least 30%.
The opportunity to make money is right in front of him, but Qiao An is no longer interested.
Sadly speaking, he now has too much money to count, and he can't be interested in spending money, and he doesn't even bother to spend money on making money.
In addition to the securities market, Roland also reminded Qiao An to pay attention to the abnormal changes in the weather in his letter.
Qiao An initially felt that this was inexplicable. As the saying goes, the weather is unpredictable and weather changes are highly random. No one can accurately judge whether tomorrow will be sunny or rainy. Why should we pay attention to this?
However, after another thought, he suddenly thought of one thing, and only then did he realize the implied meaning of His Majesty the Emperor.
The "abnormal weather" mentioned by Roland does not refer to naturally occurring climate change, but to imply that a winter catastrophe that will sweep the entire Vales world is about to strike.
In recent years, one of the things Qiao An can't let go of the most is the whereabouts of "Mother of the Demon Wolf" Angel Boda.
Four years have passed since the old witch took the artifact "Ring of Winter" from the Temple of Styx.
At the beginning, Ms. Farah asserted that Angel Poda would not be able to complete the synchrony with the "Ring of Winter" within at least three years and fully control the power of this artifact.
So, on the other hand, four years later, Angel Poda is likely to have taken control of the "Ring of Winter". The next question will be what she wants to do with this artifact.
The prophecies passed down by the "Goddess of Hades" Hull and the Asa tribe's elders all hinted that a catastrophe called "Fumble Winter" would reappear in the world.
This catastrophe broke out 40,000 years ago, directly leading to the entire world of Vares entering the ice age. More than 99% of the world’s species ushered in the fate of extinction during that long and cold winter. The once glorious ancient Asa Civilization has also declined sharply as a result. This is the "Twilight of the Gods" that has been lamented countless times in the epics of later generations.
If Angel Boda and the evil **** Zeuxker behind it are determined to release the terrifying power sealed in the "Ring of Winter" and call for the "Fumble Winter" to come to the world, then according to the precedent recorded in the ancient prophecy, as long as In just three winters, the whole world will return to the "Twilight of the Gods" again, and there will be no survivors.
Qiao An is now in the southern part of the New World, in the midsummer of June, and did not feel the cold weather.
However, he believed that His Majesty the Emperor of the Far East would not be alarmist in his personal letter. He quickly measured the temperature and wind direction, and then landed on the cloud network to search for data related to "climate" and check the temperature records of the world over the past four years.
After a busy day, Qiao An compiled a statistical table and plotted it into a more intuitive graph.
From the chart, until late May, the temperature fluctuations in various places did not exceed the variance of previous years. However, from the beginning of June, the signs of temperature decline have generally appeared in various parts of Vares, and by the middle of June according to Qiao'an statistics, the average decline It's about 5 degrees.
This degree of change is not significant, and it is difficult to say whether it is abnormal. After all, it is not unusual for the temperature to rise and fall in normal years, so it has not attracted public attention so far.
Judging from the news collected in forums and newspapers, there are reports of exceptionally cool weather this summer in various places. In the eyes of ordinary people, this is not a bad thing, but Qiao An can't help but worry secretly.
Rubbing his somewhat sore eyes, Qiao An took out the communication crystal, and first sent a letter back to His Majesty Roland, telling him that he had noticed the widespread cooling phenomenon all over the world, and suspected that it was the "Mother of Magic Wolf" using the "Ring of Winter". "Fuck you.
If this speculation is true, then the unusually cool weather this summer is just an appetizer, and it will be another month or two. The frost and snow in the summer will not surprise him. By then, I will try to deal with the changes. It's too late!
According to ancient records, the "Fumble Winter" can be divided into three phases, each of which lasts for about three months, that is, three quarters.
The first season is called "Wind Winter". The main feature is abnormal cold currents and storms. The temperature is significantly lower than normal, and there will even be night frosts in the later period.
At the end of "Wind Winter", regardless of whether it is in the southern or northern hemisphere, whether it is summer or winter, temperatures around the world will drop below the freezing point. The abnormally cold climate will pose a serious threat to people's lives and crop growth.
After the "Wind Winter" is the "Sword Winter", the curve of the temperature drop will become steeper, sunny days will become very rare, blizzards will continue, and at the end of the "Wind Winter", snow will fall Turning into sharp hail, like endless arrows falling from the sky, outdoor activities lacking effective protection are tantamount to suicide.
As for the wild animals and plants in nature that can neither hide in a sturdy house, nor know how to wear helmets and armor, most of them cannot escape the end of ice bolt piercing and brutal torture.
The large-scale extinction of animals and plants will result in an extreme shortage of human survival resources. Ordinary people who take refuge in their houses, even if they temporarily escape the fate of the ice and arrows, will not escape the death of freezing and starvation.
