At the beginning of the mortal age, the divided world was in chaos. The Guardian Beasts had experienced the Elder Twilight and had little left, so they retreated into the background to recuperate. And the Vermilion Bird Continent is also occupied by hundreds of races, and the long era of racial hegemony - the giant clan is the victor.

The able-bodied, hard-to-sword giants have spent hundreds of years building their mightiest empires, but before they can rejoice, the elves have come from another continent. The elves, who had been fierce since ancient times, wielded magical magic in their hands, and despite the giants' best efforts, they were beaten and fled by the elven mages.

The northern part of the Suzaku Continent became an elven territory, but the giants at that time still held other lands. They vowed to drive out the elves and regain the entire continent, but unfortunately a group of creatures called 'humans' reappeared.

Humans quickly encroached on the giants' territory, and the giants finally forced them together, only to suddenly bring in the help of the elves. The elves didn't want to get involved in other disputes, but the giants were annoyed by the long hours of their troubles. Humanity promised to be the elves' eternal 'good neighbors', which made the elves enthusiastically lend a helping hand.

So in the end, the giant suffered heavy casualties, and only a few old and sick people were left to hide in the deep mountains and old forests, until today.

[This is a sad story. 】

Xia Han sighed after knowing the history of the giant: This giant is a stupid big man, who worked hard to obtain a heavy treasure, but was crushed by Gao Fu Shuai, and after trying to make a comeback, he encountered a counterattack and robbery and finally became destitute.

However, having said that, there is no right or wrong in history, only victory and defeat.

Spotting the giant's finger prints, Autumn Night advises Xia Han to be prepared before investigating further. In fact, it is not uncommon for giants to kidnap humans in the outside world, but they have never attacked the inhabitants of the Sky Temple.

The paupers are of low status in other countries, the occasional giant is turned a blind eye by those in power, and armies only appear when there are heavy casualties. The Sky Temple is different, every time there is something abnormal in the Cangji Mountain Range, the last thing the Temple lacks is a mage who is full of food and has nothing to do.

Relying on the teleportation array, it was only a matter of minutes for these violent mages to go out and fight.

Xia Han played the fine style of the Templar Mage, and he rejected Qiu Ye's suggestion and continued to explore with the others. Perhaps it was their good luck that in the evening, the three giants met them in the jungle.

The giants were nearly three meters tall and did not differ much from humans in appearance, except for a sharp horn on the top of their heads.

"It's just an ordinary giant, I don't think it's too difficult for you." Autumn Night looked at it for a moment and let go of her worries.

Bai Xue also nodded assumedly: "They are very weak." ”

Xia Han was a little suspicious, he saw the giants on the other side and didn't know what to say, he always felt that they were too relaxed - Qiu Ye was holding a magic staff, it was impossible for these giants not to find out the identity of their mage.

At this moment, the giants took the lead in taking out the earthen jars from behind them.

[What are you doing with the jar?] Xia Han was puzzled, but the three earthen jars had already fallen, and after the jars were broken, three green lights flashed in the air.

"Po" "Po" "Po"

Three soft sounds, waiting for Xia Han to react, he found that Bai Xue, Autumn Night, and the guard had suddenly disappeared. Only three toads, one white, one yellow, and one black, appeared where they had been standing.

"Holy Damn Me"

Xia Han was dumbfounded.

"My poor master, is this time of shock?" The little squirrel warned loudly: "There is a very dangerous curse in that earthen jar, it will turn the people in the giant's field of vision into toads, I suggest you run away quickly?" ”

Xia Han looked up, and several giants took out earthen pots from behind their backs. Without saying a word, he jumped to the side with the stunned spring love, and ran into the dense bushes.

With a "pop", the villagers who led the way also turned into cyan toads and croaked in place, but the summer cold and spring love that were hiding were safe.

"Tsk" Xia Han didn't expect the giant to have such a terrible weapon, he bent over and ran into the distance with spring love, and then lowered his body and said to her: "Don't make a sound, don't be seen by them, I'll save people." ”

"Don't" Chunqing shook her head as she shivered—she was frightened: "It's too dangerous." ”

But Xia Han turned around and ran, he couldn't stop for a long time, if he kept running, he would let the giant's eyes follow. These giants are not strong, and Xia Han still has a chance to win as long as he is not seen.

No matter what you say, he can't leave the snow behind.

Relying on the shade of trees and grass, Xia Han circled around the giant, perhaps the body of an elf, and this kind of running did not consume too much physical strength. One by one, the frost slammed into the giant from all sides, and Xia Han cast spells quickly, but it didn't seem to have much effect—the giant's skin was very strong.

He could only change his method to attack with alternating flames and frost, and the hot and cold attacks quickly took effect, and the giants began to get angry, chasing Xia Han with huge axes.

"Frost Freeze!" Xia Han cast Freeze, and the fourth-order humans would all stop in front of his frost, but he cast three in a row, which finally made the big giant stop.

Taking advantage of this time, Xia Han stood up, raised his hands and threw a huge ice spear, directly through the neck of a giant.

"Oh hoo~" After the giant fell, the other two giants were furious.

Two axes flew towards Xia Han, and the axes that flew in an instant were sandwiched by the wind, no matter which part of Xia Han's body was hit, he could become crippled. Xia Han rolled on a lazy donkey and avoided it dangerously, but miscalculated and rolled his body out of the bushes for shading.

He couldn't help but turn pale when he saw the giant cheering and lifting the earthen jar and smashing it to the ground.

"Illusion!" The air distorted, and the green light struck the illusion left by Xia Han, and he scurried back into the bushes to escape.

Xia Han bent down and ran again, jumping up quickly, gathering magic energy in his hands, his condensation speed was faster than any mage of the same level, and another ice spear appeared in his hand almost in the blink of an eye, and then he threw it hard, and the second giant fell down.

There was only one giant left, but he didn't last more than two minutes in Xia Han's hands.

After a short fight, Xia Han didn't notice that his body was a little sore until it was over. Although he had entered the fourth order, making a few ice spears so quickly still caused a load on his body - the sequelae of infinite mana.

He walked over to the field and sat down, and the human princess ran out in a few moments, her eyes shining. "You're amazing." She was full of admiration.

"Go and rummage over the giants to unravel their spells." Xia Han looked at a few toads that were jumping in circles in the distance, and suddenly felt that people who looked like this were funny.

Chunqing immediately turned over on several giants, but she looked for the old man for a long time without any result, just when Xia Han was about to help, suddenly there was a 'pop', and Chunqing turned into a pink toad.

She accidentally broke an earthen jar.

Xia Han had no choice but to take the leaves and vines to make a simple basket, and then carry the toad back to Shancheng Town.

In the town of Mountains, a human mage welcomes his return with the mayor.

"Lord Jasmine will come tomorrow morning to unlock the spell, but you need to protect them well tonight." The human mage explained to Xia Han like this, and several lords were indeed secretly observing his trial.

Xia Han returned to the tavern with relief, and he took two boxes, one with the male toad and the other with the two female toads.

Looking at a few toads of all kinds, I don't know why Xia Han always doesn't have a sense of stability, Transfiguration is a spell that can only be cast by a very powerful mage, why can a few earthen jars do this?

This incident made Xia Han decide to be cautious, there must be something strange about this trial.

On the same night, the Shining City, the main city of the Church of Light, was as bright as day, with colorful crystals depicting the stories of the saints shining at the top of the building, street lamps swaying on the neat streets, and serene hymns sounding.

Shiraksu knelt under the statue of a sword and prayed, not opening her eyes until the sound of slight footsteps came from behind.

"Xia Han, where is he?" A woman asked her in a low voice, full of anger.

Bai Yue stood up, she patted the dust on her long skirt, and then turned around. "I don't know." She looked at the woman opposite, 'Princess Xia Yun of the Jade Empire' and said, "Wasn't he abandoned by you and locked up in the palace of the Chunhui Empire?" ”

Different from Xia Yun, Bai Yue's voice was calm and unfamiliar: "Why do you still want to ask me now?" ”

"This" Xia Yun's words came to an abrupt end, and she was blocked by a man.

Ji Bai stopped Xia Yun's words, he walked forward and bent down: "Guardian, we want to welcome back Your Majesty, without malice, I think this is also your duty." ”

The duty of the guardian is to protect the king and protect the royal power, since it is the royal power, then Bai Yue can't refuse Ji Bai's right to welcome Xia Han's return However, this was before

"It's a pity that the Emerald Empire has perished, and I am not its guardian." Bai Yue shook her head, her eyes were still unfamiliar: "I am guarding the royal power of Xia Han, not the royal power of the Jade Empire."

She said: "Since he has no intention of rebuilding the Emerald Empire, then I naturally don't care which country you are the king of, I will protect his country and his royal power, but if he gives up, then I will only need to protect him." ”

The current situation is very simple, Bai Yue and Xia Han have both got rid of their relationship with the Jade Empire.

"But if that were the case, he's okay now, right?" Ji Bai caught this key point.

Bai Yue did not refute.

"We know, let's go, princess, it's not a good place to stay long." Ji Bai found the answer, he turned to Xia Yun and said, "Let's go find Your Majesty ourselves." ”
