The Witcher: Son of the Planes.

Chapter 123 Going to the North

It has been more than three months since the last gathering. Colin has been in good condition. His level as a first-level wizard has been completely stabilized, and he has also learned the flying technique that he had always dreamed of.

Originally, Colin planned to wait for half a year before setting off, but after his realm stabilized, Colin became restless. He couldn't contact Edith for a long time, and Colin was very worried. If anything unexpected happened, he also hoped to get accurate news. The trip to the north should be put on the agenda.

On a beautiful night, when Helen just went up to the clouds, Colin told Edith about his past.

Helen was just enjoying herself and vaguely heard what Colin said, which seemed to be a woman.

After calming down, Helen glanced at Colin. She wanted to complain to Colin, but she changed her mind when she was about to say something: "Forget it, I am too lazy to say anything to you. I was suspicious when you came back from the college competition last time, so I let you take Connie. I didn't expect you had another one. As long as your body can handle it, I don't want to say anything more about you. But if you treat us badly, Nora and I will stay away from you and never see you again."

"No, absolutely not. You have to believe in my character." Colin hugged Helen and assured her.

"So, you are going to the North this time to find her?" Helen was not a stupid woman, but her trust in Colin all the time made her not think too much about it. Now that Colin confessed, she understood everything.

"Yes, I lost contact with Edith not long after I came back from the last college competition. I was a little worried. I didn't know what happened to her, but I was always busy and busy with promotion, so I couldn't leave her. Now that I've been promoted, I want to go over and take a look."

"Well, she is yours after all. You have to be careful and bring Sister Edith back safely." Regardless of her age, she is always the eldest wife and her status must be made clear. Helen finally said this.

"...I will. After I leave, you guys must also practice seriously and do experiments in moderation. After you advance, you will have more time to do experiments. If you don't advance, doing more experiments will be in vain. I still hope that you can accompany me all the way."

Seeing that Colin still cared about her as much as before, Helen took the initiative to hug Colin.

……

A week later, Colin said goodbye to everyone and set out for the north.

Because he was promoted to a first-level wizard, Colin was finally qualified to ride the airship alone. Of course, his pet Charles was also able to accompany him this time.

With the help of the airship, even if it is flying from the South China Sea to the North, it will not take too long, just over a year.

Colin's journey was very fast. He passed Emerald Island and Victoria Islands in a few days. However, he planned to stop again when he came back, so he just passed by in a flash this time. During the trip, he changed to an airship at Anrut Port.

There were not many official wizards on the ship, and after nodding, no one was interested in talking and went back to their rooms. As for the apprentices, there were too many of them, and after being promoted, Colin had distanced himself from them and had no intention of paying attention to the topics discussed by the apprentices on the ship.

As we got closer and closer to the North, the sky gradually took on a lead-gray hue, as if it was also covered with thick ice and snow. The light was not much dimmer, but the illumination from the stars had weakened a lot, and the ground was also covered in white. As we continued to move north, the snow on the ground was more like a transition from a summer quilt to a thick cotton quilt, constantly thickening, and the vegetation was even more sparse. From time to time, some snowflakes floated in the sky, and the undulating mountains in the distance were more like a barrier, separating the North from the main wizard continent.

After several stops, there were very few passengers on the ship. When it arrived at the northern border city of Spaar, there were only two people on the ship besides Colin.

After arriving here, the airship will not continue to go north. On the one hand, the sphere of influence of the Northern Witch does not allow the airship to enter deeper areas, and on the other hand, there are other means of transportation locally.

The northern border town of Spar is located at the southernmost tip of the North. It is considered a transit station between the North and the main continent. Compared with other cities on the mainland, it is much smaller, but it has a population of over one million all year round, and there are shops of all kinds.

After getting off the ship, Colin contacted Edith again, but still no news.

In desperation, Colin could only temporarily settle down in Spar City and search patiently.

The best source of information is still the tavern. After Colin rented a hotel and settled down, he followed the introduction of the hotel owner and came to the largest tavern in Spar City - Derwei Tavern, which is also a distribution center for various information.

It is a kind of enjoyment for these professionals to be able to find a cheap and good tavern in this snowy city, drink a glass of strong rum to drive away the biting coldness in their bodies.

The main professions in the Wizard Continent must be wizards and knights, but there is no shortage of other professionals. However, those who can advance to level one are really rare, and most of them are just helpless choices during the apprentice stage.

However, in the North, in addition to other professions, there is also a special profession in the North, the Ice Warrior, which is a combination of magic and physical side, a variant of the magic swordsman, but the spell is only ice spells.

After Colin entered the Derby Tavern, he found a secluded corner and sat down. When asked by the tavern girl, Colin did not have much choice but to try the strong rum here.

His intention was not to drink, but to get some information.

With Colin's deliberate restraint, he looked more like a lone ranger who came to the North to explore the world, and did not attract the attention of everyone in the tavern.

"Have you heard? Those crazy women in the north have been doing something even more outrageous recently. They don't allow male professionals to enter when they are collecting snow lotus and silver needle fruit. How can we survive in the future?"

"Keep your voice down. This tavern is also their sphere of influence. Don't worry about your life."

"What are they afraid of? Without resources, they will starve to death sooner or later. They dare to do it and no one can say anything about it."

"Stop talking. In the North, witches' words are orders. We can't afford to offend them. I'm going to the main continent to look for opportunities. I believe that with our strength, we won't starve to death no matter what we do."

"Huh? There's a bit of discrimination against men here?" Colin listened for a while and felt the "characteristics" of the North.

Colin sat for a while and listened to other people's conversations. It was all bullshit and useless. Colin prepared to go back to the hotel first.

In the following days, Colin reported to the tavern every day, ordered a glass of strong rum, sat in the corner, and listened quietly to the gossip of these professionals. There was always some new information entering Colin's ears, and gradually he had a better understanding of the forces in the North.
