Chapter 1542.1: Holy Healing City and the White Witch

The central plains had spring all year round, which was different from the western part of this world where Su Xiao was previously located, it had a rainy season all year round and the climate was relatively wet and cold.

According to what Su Xiao had seen and heard along the way, more than 60% of this world's land had not been developed, even though most of the land in this world was fertile.

This world wasn't lacking in resources, it only lacked advanced technology. If approximately 10% of this world is sown, the problem of food and clothing for most ordinary people will be solved, but unfortunately, due to the constant wars in this world, at most 4% of the land was sown, and this percentage was greatly exaggerated.

Witches, local kings, slave markets, tribes cut off from the rest of the world... if all these problems are not solved, the civilians of this world will continue to starve and freeze, but due to poorly developed technologies and the lack of stable communication between cities, ordinary people did not realize this at all. In their opinion, the famine was mostly caused by the bad climate.

Given the realities of this world, it wasn't stupid. Most of the cities were isolated from each other. Even if a powerful organization like the Church of Holy Healing is destroyed one day, civilians from other parts of the planet, with the exception of the central plains, will not know about it in a month at best, but rather in half a year or even a year. As for the tribes that kept outsiders away, they were not interested in such news at all, and they would never know about it.

On the way, Su Xiao read all the books he had brought along on the journey. Among them, " A Brief History of the Dark Raven Lands "and" Age of Witches " were the most valuable. A brief history of the Dark Raven Lands was written by a fortune-telling witch 7 years ago. Given the speed of information spread in this world, this book was like a newspaper that was released just a few months ago. The contents of this book, of course, were not full of new unique knowledge, but in the eyes of ordinary people, it would definitely become a source of very interesting facts.

According to what the witch named Celia had written, the Dark Raven lands could actually be divided into three main parts. Two of them were quite large, these areas being the central plains and the western lands. Both of these territories were under the control of the Church of Holy Healing and had relatively clear, well-written laws. The eastern lands were mostly inhabited by tribes. An unsuccessful traveler could easily become the dinner of a tribe in the eastern lands, or just die for almost nothing, and there were a lot of witches living in the eastern lands, which is why the eastern lands were considered very dangerous.

The northern lands consisted of ice fields and permafrost. The Northerners were mostly engaged in hunting and were known for their incredible endurance, however, given the harsh climate and the peculiarities of the local lands, a person either became quite hardy or simply died. Every day, an ordinary inhabitant of the northlands would encounter dangerous wild beasts, and sometimes the human settlements would be attacked by whole packs of wild beasts. Because of this, even breast-feeding women were ready at any time to leave their child at home, take up arms and together with their husbands go to fight off the attack of wild animals..

The king of the north, who ruled the north from his "Winter City", had a reputation for being an extremely good warrior, but unfortunately, he was not a good strategist, and there were few resources in the north, so he could not capture territories outside the permafrost. Fortunately, there were practically no witches in the north, not because the witches were afraid of the harsh locals, but because it was so damn cold in the north. An ordinary witch, without the proper knowledge, might very well freeze to death one day.

In fact, more than one witch froze to death in the north, after all, snowstorms were not a joke, which is why witches began to avoid these territories..

In general, the center and west of this world was relatively safe, the east was a very dangerous place where there were no laws, the north was a very cold region, and as for the south, it was the territory of witches and a forbidden area for humans.

After getting a glimpse of this world, Su Xiao gradually began to work out his plan. It was currently located in the central plains, about five kilometers away from Holy Healing City.

When he set foot in the territory of this city, there were a lot less thugs and primitive tribes on his way. While he was walking towards this territory, he managed to eliminate at least a dozen small groups. Up to this point, he sometimes encountered one or two groups of robbers every few kilometers, and these robbers did not take a "fee for passage", but immediately tried to kill the unfortunate traveler, after which they would already remove all the most valuable things from the corpse..
