Chapter 1433 Epoch Change! New God's Encounters 10 (Page 12)
Three chapters in one!
As one of the 24 great dragon king families, the members of the Valeria family never imagined that they would have such a miserable and helpless day.
Looking at the few remaining family members around him, and the dragon that also had only four hands left, Rolin Valeria felt a wave of sorrow wash over him.
But whatever he was thinking, he had to suppress it at this critical juncture of the entire family's life and death. The most urgent task was to find a place where the remaining members of the family could rest and recuperate away from the sight of others.
But at this critical juncture, the few remaining members of the tribe disagreed on where to choose a place to rest and recuperate.
One side believes that they can choose the territory their family occupied before migrating to the Smoke Sea as their place to recuperate and rebuild.
As long as you keep a low profile, you shouldn't encounter too many problems.
The other side believes that the forces on the continent of Frantis will definitely take advantage of their misfortune, and their former territory is no longer a good choice, as it may attract the covetous eyes of those wolves.
Therefore, this side believed they could choose a remote place, preferably one that the jackals of the continent of Frantis could not easily set foot in, or that they could hardly even imagine, to hide in.
With the two sides locked in a stalemate, Rolin Valeria, the only remaining dragon king of his kind with a higher status, was also having a major headache over choosing a place to hide.
Ultimately, he chose a compromise.
That means leaving the very center of the storm and heading to the frontier of the continent of Frantis, or simply seeking refuge on some of the less-visited islands in the nearshore waters of the Sea of Despair.
Unfortunately, his proposal did not receive the approval of all the family members present. Instead, it directly split the family into three camps.
Already troubled by the misfortune that befell his family, Rolin Valeria decided to stop thinking about it and simply left with the group of his people who supported him.
One of the other two factions stubbornly returned to the place where the Valeria family first rose to power, hoping to continue the family's glory there.
As for the last faction, they unexpectedly chose to head to the northernmost part of the continent of Frantis, attempting to cross the Wall of Despair and settle in the extremely cold land beyond it.

The 5th Age of the Divine Calendar, year 0.
Dragon Year 1600.
In just 50 years, the landscape of the entire continent of Frantis has undergone tremendous changes.
The Dragon King family was almost completely wiped out, and the remaining surviving family members could only hide and try their best to prevent other forces on the continent from finding them.
The Valeria family, which had preserved the most power, split into three branches, each choosing different locations to recuperate and rebuild.
Of course, all the powers on the continent of Frantis would not allow these fallen dragon king families to live comfortably, and they had no intention of letting them survive at all.
In an instant, the once high and mighty Dragon King family became the target of countless wolves and ambitious people.
Many members of the Dragon King family who were related to the Dragon King family, or who were simply impure members of the Dragon King family, were besieged and killed by a combined force of many powers.
Even the few remaining legitimate members of the Dragon King's family who no longer had dragons, or those who rode a single dragon, were besieged.
The besieging forces all wanted to capture them, or at the very least kill a dragon and study its corpse to uncover the secrets of the Dragon King's family.
As a powerful weapon of war, the Dragon King's power is coveted by all forces, who dream of becoming the next powerful Dragon King family.
……
The 5th Age of the Divine Calendar, year 0.
Dragon Year 1660.
Several decades later, after decades of searching and hunting, almost all the remaining members of the Dragon King family on the entire continent were wiped out.
The dragon has almost disappeared.
The branch of the Valeria family that chose to recuperate in the place where the family rose to power ultimately paid the price for their sense of entitlement.
Their small numbers of personnel and even fewer dragons made it impossible for them to simultaneously resist so many forces besieging them.
This branch died out.
In contrast, the fate of Rolin Valeria, who went to the Sea of Despair, and the dragons he took with him, was quite good.
They found a large, easily defensible island near the Sea of Despair and chose it as the next base for their entire family.
It's not that no one has tried to take advantage of them.
However, leaving the land and sailing on the desolate sea is an extremely dangerous thing, and the slightest carelessness could result in the destruction of the ship and the loss of life.
Not everyone can fly. The Dragon King family, which controls the dragons, has an absolute advantage in this regard, which is why they can easily cross distant seas.
Secondly, even though they were nearing their end, the forces under Rolin Valeria's command were still quite strong, at least stronger than those forces that coveted them.
Faced with those forces that managed to approach the island, and having the advantage of home ground and possessing multiple dragons, Rolin Valeria led his people to sink them all into the sea.
After this battle, the Rolin Valeria branch was given a period of respite, allowing them to recuperate on that island.
……
Unlike the previous two branches, the ending of the Valeria branch, where you choose to cross the Wall of Despair, is quite interesting.
Because of their past arrogance, they only thought that the environment of the extreme cold was special and that it might be difficult to recuperate here. They never thought that such terrifying life actually existed here.
Ignoring the warnings from the legions at the Wall, this branch of Valeria stopped after crossing the Wall and entering the edge of the frigid lands.
They never intended to venture deep into the frigid regions; they only wanted to establish themselves in a relatively habitable, marginal area.
However, the dazzling magical energy they emitted, especially the vigorous life force of the dragons and the special aura of being magical creations, quickly attracted the attention of Karen, deep in the frigid lands.
Thus, before this Valeria branch could even establish itself here, they were besieged by the White Walkers.
With opposing characteristics, a large amount of dragonfire did indeed eliminate some of the ghouls and even the Others.
However, they were ultimately no match for the sheer number of ghouls and the even stronger "silence" of some of the powerful Others.
Amidst roars of resentment and desperate cries of the dragon, this branch of Valeria was utterly annihilated.
Correspondingly, many more powerful figures have joined the already formidable White Walker army.
……
The 5th Age of the Divine Calendar, year 0.
Dragon Year 1880.
Spring comes and autumn goes; time never lingers for the vast majority of ordinary lives in this world.
More than 200 years have passed, and without the Dragon King family that once oppressed everyone, the continent of Frantis has once again seen a war between numerous forces.
Compared to the current situation, the common people at the grassroots level actually feel that the rule of the Dragon King family was better, at least there was no continuous bloodshed like now.
Unfortunately, those who truly have the power in this world are never the ordinary people at the bottom; they can only drift along with the tide of the world.
Amidst this chaotic situation, a powerful force intervened once again, escalating the situation on the continent into an even more unpredictable and perplexing realm.
After 200 years of recuperation, the strength and influence of the isolated Rolin Valeria branch have finally recovered somewhat.
The number of family members has increased significantly, and many of the dragon eggs hatched from those dragons have also hatched, resulting in a considerable increase in the number of dragons in the family.
Unfortunately, because it has left the environment most suitable for dragons to grow, the current state of A Island has somewhat affected the dragons' ability to improve their strength.
This meant that all subsequent dragons, whether in size or other aspects, could not compare to the original dragons that gave birth to them.
But this is already very good. Roland Valeria did not have any more expectations. Even if this branch were placed on the continent of Frantis today, its current strength would definitely be among the strongest.
Having regained some of his strength, Rolin Valeria was naturally unwilling to remain confined to this place forever, and his gaze once again turned to the continent of Frantis.
……
In the same year, under the pretext of helping the forces that Valeria had once been affiliated with, Rolin Valeria launched a direct revenge against several forces located near the coast.
His actions directly provoked the nerves of many forces on the continent of Frantis, and many of them were eager to unite again to cut off Rolin Valeria's path back to the continent.
Fortunately, Rolin Valeria had anticipated this and paid a price in advance by forming alliances with some forces, thus avoiding another siege.
Furthermore, the Dragon King family no longer possesses an absolute advantage in terms of strength, and the various forces on the continent of Frantis each have their own agendas, with none wanting to be the first to provoke the Valeria family.
The Valeria family's revenge war to return to the continent succeeded in this eerie atmosphere, allowing them to regain their territory on the continent.
Having achieved this, Luo Lin had essentially reached his original goal, and he did not want to further provoke the various forces on the continent at this juncture.
Knowing when to stop is the best approach.
Seeing that Rolin was so sensible, the forces that had formed an alliance with him were also very satisfied, and the other forces that were watching from the sidelines naturally stopped keeping a close eye on him.
……
The 5th Age of the Divine Calendar, year 0.
Dragon Year 2000.
After more than 100 years of development, the continent of Frantis is still divided among warlords, and the power of the Valeria family has only expanded slightly.
In this special year, a red meteorite streaked across the sky above the entire continent of Frantis in an abrupt manner.
In response, the forces that were fortunate enough to collect information from previous eras all wore solemn expressions.
Based on the information they gathered, although they couldn't be entirely certain what the red meteorite streaking across the sky meant, it certainly wasn't a good thing.
The entire continent was in turmoil, with many forces sending personnel to try to uncover the secrets of the red meteorite.
However, they didn't need to actively seek out the secrets of the red meteorite; they soon became aware of the changes in the world of Frantis.
The weather, which had been consistently warm and even slightly hot, began to cool down. When the temperature dropped to a certain level, what fell from the sky was no longer the usual rain, but cold snowflakes.
"The long summer... is over."
Roland Valeria raised his hand and caught a snowflake, watching it melt in his palm, but his expression became more solemn than ever before.
Over the years, he had long known the fates of the other two family branches, especially the one that had joined the White Walkers family.
When he learned of this news, Rowling finally believed the legends surrounding the Wall and regarded the White Walkers as his greatest enemy.
As the long summer ended and snowflakes began to fall, Rowling inexplicably thought of the White Walkers in the frigid lands.
