The Aesir tribes in Jotunheim, under the call of Sigel, the chief of the Vali tribe, launched an uprising against the oppression of the frost giants, which attracted the Ice Tower Fortress to send troops to suppress it.
The war continues to this day, with the tribe losing more and winning less. It is said that even the base camp of the Vali tribe "Bear King Town" is surrounded by the army of Ice Tower Fortress, and the situation is worrying.
Siegel Valli, known as "Flying Bear", is Eve's father.
When the druid girl received the bad news, she couldn't help but feel worried. She wished she could turn into a bird and fly home immediately.
Al and Ush are also from the Wali tribe. They are concerned about the safety of their relatives and friends and are eager to return to their hometown as soon as possible.
In the blink of an eye, it was late October, and the sailing ship that everyone was on finally arrived on the east coast of Jotunheim. At this time, the northern land of the New World was already in the cold winter season with snow all over the place.
Gao Fei stood on the bow of the ship, wearing a three-dragon leather armor sewn from white dragon leather, with Olaf's holy ax slung behind him, looking at the dock getting closer and closer, when he suddenly received a system prompt.
Main quest log updated!
"Akeron, the general under Gelmir, is leading a force composed of orcs, ice elements, sky-sliding horses and white dragons, and is besieging Bear King Town, the capital of the Vali tribe!"
"The defenders of Bear King Town can hold on until dusk at most. You and your companions must rush to the town before sunset to repel the army in the Tower Fortress and save the Vali tribe!"
…
"Now the big one is coming!" Gao Fei said to Jiang Feng, "After more than two years of wandering and adventure on the sea, we are finally going to have a head-on battle with the people of Ice Tower Fortress!"
"We only have five people and one dog here to fight fully. They are of little use on the frontal battlefield where the two armies are facing each other. If we want to reverse the defeat, we must win by surprise and try to behead the enemy's commander."
Having said this, Gao Fei glanced at the artifact giant ax with the special effect of "decapitation".
"The enemy's coach is named Akeron. He seems to be a ruthless character." Jiang Feng was also looking at the system prompts.
"Akeron, Schroeder, and August are also known as the three giants of the Ice Tower Fortress. It was he and the old white dragon August who teamed up to break through the Holy Ax Town, the main city of the Olaf tribe, and massacre the Olaf family.
Members, capture Basaka with your own hands.”
According to Basaka Olaf's memory, Gao Fei obtained more information about Acheron, and also felt the young barbarian prince's unforgettable hatred for this man.
"Akeron was born into the Yitian Centaur clan, and he also has the extraordinary profession of 'Water Element Warrior'. His strength is not much inferior to that of General Schroeder. As for the specific attribute data, we will have to wait until we meet him before we can obtain it."
"Is the Yitian centaur a type of centaur?" Jiang Feng asked next.
"Master Su, the Yitian centaurs do look like centaurs, but they are bigger, stronger, and more ferocious and evil than centaurs!"
Eve took over the conversation.
"The body of the centaur is like an elf, and its lower body is like a horse, while the Yitian horse looks like a frost giant from the waist up, and its lower body is a huge war horse with eight legs, no less than 18 feet tall from head to toe!"
"It is said that in ancient times, the 'god of giants' Annan imitated the centaur, extracted the blood of the frost giant and the eight-legged horse Sleipnir, mixed them together, and used his divine power to create the world's first pair of flying centaurs, one female and one male.
, got married and bred many offspring, which is today’s Yitian people and horses clan.”
"Because of this connection, the Yitian people also worship the giant gods and have a good relationship with the frost giants. They have been close allies for many years."
After listening to Eve's story, Jiang Feng nodded slightly, and then asked her: "How does the combat effectiveness of the Yitian Centaur compare with that of the Frost Giant?"
"The Yitian horses are natural cavalry. They are good at using spears and long bows. They are not inferior to the frost giants in close combat. The range of the bows and arrows is far better than the stones thrown by the frost giants."
"The most powerful move of the Yitian troops is to charge with a gun!"
"When these centaur and half-horse monsters charge, there is rumbling thunder at their feet. Just hearing it from a distance makes people dizzy and tinnitus. If they are unfortunately trampled by these thundering iron hooves, even if they don't die, they will be deafened.
.”
"When the Yitian troops are charging, if they encounter an obstacle or ditch, as long as the width is no more than a hundred feet, they can leap into the air and glide over. It's like they have wings, so don't expect to use traps to stop these terrifying groups.
The giant cavalry!"
As soon as Eve finished speaking, the sailboat docked at the port.
Al dropped the anchor and dropped down the gangplank leading to the trestle.
Wushi tied up the cable and turned around to greet everyone ashore.
Jiang Feng was the first to jump onto the snowy pier. He immediately felt a slight tremor under his feet and quickly turned around and waved his hands to prevent his companions from landing.
"Master Su, what's wrong?" Brother Al asked.
"There may be an ambush on the dock." Jiang Feng replied softly.
"Ambush...where are they hiding?"
Al looked around blankly. The snow-covered pier was completely white, and not even a single person could be seen.
"Master Su, is the enemy invisible?" Eve came over to inquire.
Jiang Feng shook his head slightly, pointed to the snow on the ground and said, "They are hiding deep under the ice and snow covering the ground. I can hear slight movements, but I can't hear their exact hiding place."
The monk's professional ability "Tian Er Tong" can sense slight movements from the surrounding environment, such as a fallen leaf falling off a branch, including tremors from the ground.
Everyone quickly showed off their weapons and prepared to fight.
However, the enemy hiding under the ice and snow refused to show up. Through the thick ice and snow, no one could see clearly what the ambush troops looked like or where they were hiding.
Gao Fei recalled the main mission prompt he had received before. There were four main types of enemies attacking the Vali tribe.
In addition to the frost giants and white dragons, as well as the Yitian centaurs that Eve just mentioned, there are also ice elements.
Frost giants, white dragons, and Yitian centaurs are huge and cannot hold their breath for a long time, so they are unlikely to hide under the snow. Therefore, the enemies lurking near the dock are probably ice elements who are born with the ability to shuttle freely in the ice and snow.
While he was thinking silently, Eve broke the silence.
"I can turn into an earth element, escape underground, and detect the enemy's situation."
"Miss! It's too dangerous to do this. If you are surrounded by an ambush underground, we won't be able to rescue you. After all, we don't have the ability to burrow underground!"
Wushi strongly opposes Eve's adventurous plan. Gao Fei, Al and Jiang Feng also have the same concerns.
"Don't worry, everyone, I left Muning on the boat to maintain the mental link. If I encounter danger, Muning will sense it immediately, and then it can use the mental link to use me as the starting point to cast the 'Any Door'
, teleport me directly back to the ship." Eve said, stroking the flash dog's head.
