Chapter 240 Attacking the Frost Giants
Chapter 240 Attacking the Frost Giants
The Frost Giants are distant relatives of Odin, and are creations of the giant god Ymir. The god worshipped by the Frost Giants is their origin, the Frost God Bergermir, who is both the progenitor of the Frost Giants and the first Frost Giant.
Now, Bergermir leads his sons to live in Jotunheim, one of the nine worlds. It is another land that has become barren due to the war between the gods. Now, only frost giants and mountain giants live in that world. As a giant, Bergermir is naturally on good terms with Zeus, but he is an sworn enemy of Odin. Here's a side note: even the frost giants cannot adapt to the cold of Niflheim. Since Mount Olympus has limited space, Bergermir had no choice but to bring the giants to settle in Jotunheim.
This is why Agreed is so wary of the Frost Giants, because the Frost Giants throughout the multiverse are fanatical worshippers of Bergermir and are under his protection. Incidentally, Bergermir is a powerful god of faith, and in terms of strength alone, he is only slightly weaker than Odin.
Additional information: The power levels of deities are divided into four categories from low to high: weak divine power, low-level divine power, medium divine power, strong divine power, and supreme divine power. Among them, supreme divine power is the level of deity worship that only the god-king Odin has reached, and in the current World Tree, only Odin's divine power has reached this level. Therefore, Bergermir can basically be said to be a top-level existence among deities worshipped. This is the fundamental reason why he can still live peacefully in Jotunheim despite not being on good terms with Asgard.
Therefore, Agreed had been silently monitoring the progress of the expeditionary force. He had to stop Bergermir before he made his move to prevent his men from suffering losses. Moreover, the thought of a powerful divine avatar was incredibly appealing.
The thought of devouring the divine avatar again made Agreed unconsciously lick his lips. The more he grew, the greater his need and desire for divine power became. This was why Agreed did not wait any longer but directly began his campaign against the Frost Giants. He could not waste time. He urgently needed the strength to fight against the gods. Otherwise, if he exposed himself to the gods prematurely, tragedy would definitely repeat itself. So, when it was time to harvest the leeks, he had to do so without hesitation. He had to speed things up now.
On this day, the Frost Giants finally remembered the fear of being dominated by the White Dragon Clan in ancient times.
On this day, the Frost Giants were sleeping in the ice cave when a pale white decomposing breath pierced through the top of the cave and struck the cavern. The Frost Giants had just woken up and hadn't even had time to stand up before they screamed and left this world amidst the decomposing dragon's breath.
Upon hearing their companions' screams, the surviving frost giants quickly grabbed their weapons and rushed out of their dwellings. But the trolls descended from the sky on ice dragons, leaping off their backs and using gravitational potential energy to deliver a devastating blow to the frost giants.
Putin's performance was even more impressive. He slammed his club down from the air, smashing the head of a frost giant into its chest. Then, as he landed on the ground, he plunged his True Ice Club into the ice, instantly sending countless ice spikes piercing the earth and stringing the frost giants together like candied hawthorns.
At the same time, the ice dragons descended from the sky to attack the frost giants who had not been killed by the trolls. Although the ice dragons' freezing breath was negated by the frost giants' cold resistance, their dragon claws and teeth could still cause real damage to the frost giants.
The army quickly wiped out the Frost Giant tribe of about three thousand people. Including this tribe, in just a few days, Pugin and Jerok had led their men to wipe out eighteen Frost Giant tribes with lightning speed, killing a total of thirty thousand Frost Giants. However, the Frost Giants here are now beginning to realize the surprise attack launched against them by the White Dragon Clan.
Meanwhile, the Frost Giant King of the Arctic continent had done everything in his power to awaken and summon all the sleeping Frost Giants. A total of 24,827 Frost Giants were urgently summoned. Wielding weapons forged from glaciers, they launched an attack in the darkness on the location of the White Dragons' lair, attempting to destroy all the young dragons and dragon eggs in the lair, even if they couldn't win, they wanted to damage the foundation of the White Dragon race.
However, Agred had already discovered their movements and intentions using spirit particles, so Jerok and Pugin led their troops back to defend the dragon's nest, arriving at the dragon's nest to set up defenses before the Frost Giants.
Although the Arctic continent is still in a state of polar night, neither the white dragons, frost giants, nor even the trolls have been greatly affected by this dark environment. This is because the frost giants do not actually rely on their eyes to obtain information. In this frost-covered and dark environment, they can rely on the frost to perceive all the information they want to know. They are natural favorites and therefore receive responses and shared vision from the frost.
White dragons and ice dragons, on the other hand, rely entirely on their biological abilities to turn their eyes into a light source, emitting faint rays of light in all directions, which are then reflected back to their eyes. This gives them a nighttime perspective that is slightly darker than daytime, but does not affect their ability to see things clearly on a macroscopic scale.
Trolls rely on the combined use of their hearing, smell, and touch to gain vision in the dark. This is a unique skill they have developed over forty years of living here, and one has to admire the incredible adaptations that life can sometimes produce for survival.
However, in terms of practicality, the frost giants' detection methods are much better than those of the white dragons and trolls, so Agred's men are at a disadvantage when fighting at night.
However, to make up for this shortcoming, Agred directly shared the perspective of the Spirit Particle with his troops. With the help of the Spirit Particle, Agred completely solved the disadvantage of his troops in terms of vision. After all, the Frost Giants' vision in the dark is even wider than in the sunlight, because the absence of the sun will not interfere with their communication with the frost.
After Agreed made up for his disadvantage, their advantage became apparent. Although they were outnumbered, the White Dragon Clan was not so simple.
Just as the Frost Giant King was leading his army forward in a grand procession, the white dragons suddenly appeared in the air, having shed their camouflage magic, and launched a surprise attack on the Frost Giants with dragon language magic.
The tenth-tier dragon language magic 'Frosty Domain' was instantly unleashed amidst the white dragons' prepared chanting. A massive magical ring enveloped the frost giants, while a bright white pillar of light shot into the sky, blasting all the frost giants into the air. The dazzling light quickly illuminated the entire Arctic continent again, and the pure white light elements, comparable to the power to dissolve dragon breath, directly melted those frost giants of average strength into countless particles of light.
This is why I call the White Dragon race the strongest dragon species. In fact, the White Dragon is the dragon species most suited to magic. If the Black Dragon is the strongest in terms of physique among dragons, then the White Dragon is the top mage among dragons, the strongest dragon species that has developed its attack power to the extreme! It's just a pity that the Black Dragon and White Dragon are not as balanced and comprehensive as the Red Dragon. The Black Dragon was overwhelmed by the magic and intelligence of other dragon species and had no choice but to live underground, while the White Dragon was unable to pass on its lineage due to physical problems and eventually withdrew from the stage of history.
However, the white dragon's magic was not invincible. Because there were simply too many frost giants, and the white dragons didn't even have a single extremely old dragon, the Frost White Domain did not kill all the frost giants. After a quarter of an hour, the light slowly disappeared, and the frost giants fell to the ground, creating a miserable and vivid 'giant rain'. The Frost Giant King and his 5,418 giant warriors managed to get up despite the hardships.
Surprisingly, they were still able to fight despite suffering such heavy losses! However, the other frost giants... were basically lifeless, lying on the ground without making a sound.
