Chapter 22: A battle to gamble on the fortunes of the country
Jotunheim is poor, but the so-called rotten ship is three pounds of nails, not counting anything else, and it is quite good for a creature like the Frost Giant to be used as a slave in the wilderness. Tall and strong, the strength and special abilities are very useful, and it is a great pleasure to be a dog without having to heat up at home in the summer.
As for the compensation for the cession of land, Sol didn't bother to mention this condition. In Jotunheim's permafrost environment, what are you going to do here, to be a refrigerator? The reparations are even more nonsense, the Frost Giants are still a slave society, and their biggest property is all kinds of slaves.
Thor opened his mouth to pay three million slaves as war reparations, and the messenger of the Frost Giant was naturally unwilling. How many people do you think the Frost Giant can have, these three million are not cut flesh and bloodletting, but directly beheaded.
The two sides argued for a while, and Thor became quite impatient. He's not Loki, he's not good at playing with words, and he's eager to say, "If you don't agree with these three million slaves, we'll take it ourselves on the battlefield." ”
But with Odin, the emperor, watching, Thor can only continue to negotiate patiently. Texca was a little bored to watch, how could such a militaristic event be like bargaining with the market aunt. After standing for a while, Teska was really a little unbearable, even if they were hoarse, he felt that it was just hypnosis, and his eyelids began to fight.
However, is it disrespectful to doze off on the top of Valhalla, will you be dragged down and beheaded? Glancing left and right, Tezka was relieved. Two of the three warriors of Asgard had already slept, and only Hogan, the strongest, was still standing straight.
But this thing's eyes are small, and he doesn't know whether he is closed or narrowed, and for a while Tesca can't tell whether the strong man is asleep or not.
Since everyone was sleeping, Teska didn't hold on, leaning against the pillars of Valhalla, intending to squint for a while.
In the haze, as if someone called his name, Tesca opened his eyes, only to find that everyone in Valhalla was looking at him.
What's going on? Talking in your dreams and blowing up your identity as a traverser?
This thought made Tesca break out in a cold sweat, I really don't know if I have a situation where I am talking in my sleep, if it is exposed, I am afraid that it will be finished immediately?
Thankfully, things weren't as bad as Tesca thought. Thor yawned tiredly, and then asked, "Texca, did you hear clearly, what is your opinion on the conditions for the surrender of the Frost Giants?" ”
Ah, it's done?
Then agree, Tezka really didn't want to continue listening to them in Valhalla, the left and right were just three million and thirty thousand, and more zeros and fewer zeros really didn't make sense to him.
"Your Majesty, if you think it's appropriate, I don't have an opinion." Such an answer is the safest, and in the end, even if you throw the pot, you can't throw it on yourself.
Then Tezka regretted his cunning answer.
I saw that Thor was overjoyed, and said excitedly: "That's great, with you in the battle, we will win!" ”
When Texka heard this, his eyes widened: Wait a minute, what is it? Isn't it a surrender peace talk, why do you have to fight again?
Looking carefully at the faces of the others, the old god Odin was showing kindness, and it seemed that the peace talks were completed; Thor's eyes lit up, and he looked like a sage whose desire for war was satisfied, is this negotiated?
The diametrically opposed performances of the father and son left Tesca confused, what is going on?
Tezka listened carefully to the Frost Giant's emissary and Thor's ensuing discussion, and he realized what he was involved in.
Duel!
Jotunheim's surrender is a fact that no one can change. However, Asgard and Jotunheim could not agree on the issue of war reparations, so they decided to decide the amount in the form of a duel.
National events use real PK to "fight" into a consensus, which is really very Asgardian style.
Asgard and Jotunheim each sent three warriors to duel, and the winner won two out of three sets, deciding the amount of compensation.
In this way, there is no need to fight and die, and Odin is of course comfortable. And Thor worked hard to get a place in the game, which also alleviated his depression of not being able to go to the front. As for Tezka, as Asgard's war hero, known as the thunderous roar of the first warrior under Thor, it is absolutely impossible not to play.
If the hero doesn't appear, there must be a shady scene, did the frost giant send his sister to make Thor soft, and he wants the rabbit to die and the dog cook the bird and hide it? Do you want to let our great heroes shed blood and tears!
Even if Tezka agreed, the people of Asgard wouldn't.
Therefore, this duel Teska is absolutely impossible to dodge.
"People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and the wisdom of the ancestors really transcends time and space." Tesca sighed in her heart, but she could only accept this arrangement.
If you go head-to-head, Tesca is now not even afraid of the frost giant Lao Fei, and with Thor as a hero unit, it should be no problem to win two out of three games.
Thor is a fiery character, and after deciding on a duel, he didn't even give time to prepare, and he was about to start fighting. The battlefield also complied with the Frost Giants' request to duel in Jotunheim, saying that it was not to take advantage of these large Smurfs.
Tesca thought to herself, you just want to go around the battlefield, don't come up with such a high-sounding excuse, okay?
The news quickly spread across both countries, and Teska set foot on the eternal tundra of Jotunheim once again, fully armed.
To tell the truth, if it weren't for the support of cold-resistant medicines, it would definitely be fatal to fight in such a place in metal armor, and the iron armor sticking to the skin and taking it off would be equivalent to tearing a layer of skin.
Only war maniacs like Thor are extremely excited to wield his Mjolnir, looking forward to the appearance of his opponent.
Tezka also calmed down and prepared for the duel. In his opinion, as long as the Frost Giant's IQ is not negative, he will definitely send the most elite warriors to duel. After all, this is a battle related to the fortunes of the country, and the population of the frost giants has been sharply reduced after losing, and it will not be able to slow down in three or five thousand years. If you win, you can finally take a breath, and in a few hundred years, you can consider teasing Asgard again.
Everything was ready, and Tezca's first appearance on behalf of Asgard was to get off to a good start and boost everyone's morale.
This time Tesca didn't use his mace, this thing can sweep across the battlefield, but it's too bulky to be used in a one-on-one duel, and it's better to use a longsword.
After a wave of experience on the battlefield, his blocking and one-handed weapon skills are now as high as level forty or fifty, and the sword and shield combination is Texca's strongest melee method. Coupled with the various skills that come with the system, Texca, even if he joins the Avengers, he can be regarded as a medium-strength powerhouse.
Walking into the icy gladiatorial arena, Tesca carefully examines his opponent. Grayish-blue skin and long, almost transparent silver hair...... Wait, why is it a woman?
