There is a common geographical knowledge.

The geographical landscape where the poles of the Earth are covered with ice and snow is a state that is very rare in ordinary environments.

Either the ice caps cover the globe, or the surface is completely governed by oceans; this is what people would see most of the time.

Humans happen to live during the period when the ice caps began to disappear due to planetary activities.

From a broader perspective, it can be said that they have encountered an extremely rare special period.

And now.

This book, "Northern Enertifa Chronicles," in front of Ronald.

Makes him suddenly detach from the common sense brought from Earth and notice this slight peculiarity.

This is another world!

Even just from the perspective of probability, the planet beneath his feet likely doesn't have an environment with extremely low ice caps, let alone explorers discovering a habitable special environment there.

—Perhaps such a place is the work of a certain school of thought on the mysterious side?

Ronald did not deny this possibility in his heart.

But given the previous discussions on the dust behemoths' ability to alter the environment, an extremely dangerous thought nonetheless appeared in his mind.

If the polar ice caps on this planet were to melt in a short time.

What would the world become?

...

From a more basic direction, the port city of Springs is certainly doomed.

The climate environment all over the world would also undergo significant changes.

"..."

"Can't it be something less stressful..."

Ronald couldn't help but mutter and continue reading.

Although this travelogue doesn't have much account of the Peak of Ling Guang, carefully looking at the author's experiences in the surrounding areas could provide some help in future decisions.

[This extremely cold land is quite interesting.]

[In winter, everything seems to fall into slumber, as if some invisible existence is affecting everything in the snow world.]

[But after a while, the situation becomes different. After winter ends, the things on this land start to rejuvenate, and everything I encounter seems to exhibit its vitality.]

...

[In April, guided by the sunlight, I came to a location somewhat to the east.]

[There is a camp built in the snow here, but it has been abandoned for a long time, and there are no signs of activity around. The camp's gate was covered by ice and snow blockades, and after breaking through, there were rocks obstructing my way, making it regrettably impossible for an individual to enter.]

[A very strange camp... In my view, in comparison to the cold climate of this land, I find the strange air from before more acceptable.]

[Who can possibly live in a place like this?]

...

[This northern exploration lasted six months; unfortunately, I didn't see the legendary edge-of-the-world great ice wall, just as with the boundary of the infinitely falling ocean, the ultimate goal of this exploration remained unaccomplished.]

[However, it is said that a group of exiles came from the east and established a city near the ice and snow zone, named Waterfall City.]

[There, I might have the opportunity to name the toad I discovered in the snow world… It seems inappropriate to name a new discovery after myself; let's call it the "snowland toad" for now! In a newly established city, they should be interested in something that can suppress pain.]

"..."

"So that's how old the origin of the snowland toad is."

Upon finishing his reading, Ronald placed the "Northern Enertifa Chronicles" back in its place, recalling the encounter back in Black Mountain.

At that time, to suppress the pain from his back injury, pseudonymed merchant Heloise gave him an incredibly effective shot, and he unexpectedly learned about the origin of such a thing this way.

Thinking of this, Ronald glanced around.

He had some thoughts on Heloise's whereabouts before.

Ronald originally thought that with his return to this world, with Heloise's abilities, she would inevitably gather the news and then join him, which seemed more reliable than searching like finding a needle in a haystack.

However, this subjective assumption still went wrong.

To ensure her absolute safety, Heloise might have largely severed her connections to the mysterious side.

And losing contact with the mysterious side, naturally, she wouldn't know about Ronald's return to this world.

So now, there are two more direct methods.

The first is to utilize the abilities of the mysterious side; whether prophetic spells or other means, they can provide significant assistance.

The second is to think of methods from the regular side to achieve the same effect.

Ronald first ruled out the first point.

With his current ability, as soon as the mysterious side gets the news, it's quite likely someone with ill intentions would pop up with plans against Heloise.

As for the second point...

There, Ronald has his own inclination.

He himself has exhibited curiosity about things like expedition.

In this way, joining Entroad's expedition team would not cause some people to assume connections.

And if such an expedition were successful, the current status of Entroad would likely receive a bit of publicity so that his name appearing in the news could safely lead Heloise to the information.

In this age of limited technological means, this can be seen as one of the more suitable methods Ronald thought of.

"..."

"Better keep reading..."

At this time, Ronald's eyes again fell on the bookshelf.

Just now, the "Northern Enertifa Chronicles" provided him with a hint that the dust behemoth likely existing beneath the ice sheets only starts its revival process after winter.

Conservatively estimating, Ronald has more than a month of time now.

During this time, he could continue soaking in this place holding precious books for a week.

Once the expedition's activities start, he can join these people in going to the poles and resolve the current issues simultaneously.

As things begin to return on track, the trend of improvement can be seen...

Boom!

Suddenly, the sound of an explosion reached Ronald's ears.

This sound is of course much smaller than the major explosion incident in Springs.

Yet being able to reach his ears through the noise created by the waterfall… Something important is definitely happening in the city!

"Tsk—"

Disturbed by such a sudden commotion, Ronald's mood naturally wasn't great.

The frequency of incidents in Waterfall City is one after another; can ordinary people really live well in such a city?

Ronald put down the book and turned to leave; the guard standing at the door did not have his hearing, so he appeared a bit confused:

"Mr. Ronald?"

"I'll leave it here for today, I'll come back tomorrow."

Ronald waved a hand to interrupt the other party.

"..."

"Starting from the relationship of the entire planet and the sky, will construct our cognition."

Then softly chanted a spell.

The next moment, Ronald flew out of the Administration Hall, heading directly to the site of the explosion.
