Scott followed Edgar into the second passage.

The passage wasn't spacious at first, but it was just a magical barrier that protected Scott.

At first, Scott wondered how such a space could accommodate a giant-sized corpse, but as he went deeper, the space became larger and larger.

After more than ten minutes, Helena opened her mouth to remind him, "Be careful, there's that monster up ahead."

"Is that so?"

Scott stopped.

He stopped, but Edgar didn't stop.

Cloaked in flames, the crow continued to fly straight ahead, breaking through the thick gray mist.

Soon, Scott saw an exceptionally tall and muscular figure in the thinning fog.

With a height of more than five meters, it is indeed not inferior to that of giants.

As Edgar continued to move forward, the grey fog continued to retreat, allowing Scott to see more clearly.

Of course, he would rather not see it so clearly.

Although he had been mentally prepared for Helena's narration, when he actually saw it, he was still disgusted.

The corpse in front of him had a heavy aura of decay, and its body was covered with a layer of irregular-looking ice armor, and underneath the transparent ice armor was a mass of rotting skin mixed with black, green, and blue.

The corpse had been sleeping with its eyes closed, but as Edgar's flames brought light and heat, it slowly woke up and opened its pale eyes.

Scott watched as it slowly opened its mouth and let out a deafening roar.

As it roared, green gas erupted from its mouth, causing Scott to take several steps back.

Edgar also quickly flapped his wings and flew higher, avoiding the green gas while opening his mouth to exit a white line of fire.

The ice corpse seemed to want to dodge, but its movements were extremely stiff and slow, and the scorching line of fire undoubtedly hit its head.

The ice corpse staggered back two steps, but did not fall.

His face, which was not protected by ice armor, was scorched black by Edgar's fire, but he still did not lose his mobility, but slowly reached out with his hand, as if trying to grab Edgar.

Of course, Edgar, who was agile and agile, would not be caught by it, and while dodging, the line of fire in his mouth was not interrupted, and he kept avoiding the ice armor on the ice corpse, always burning its face.

But after a long time, the ice corpse never fell, but stared at Edgar's attack and walked straight forward.

Scott didn't rush into action, but took a few steps back and turned his head to look at the frame floating to the side.

Ravenclaw in the painting says, "The flame is the best way to deal with this kind of thing, and if it doesn't work, raise the temperature of the flame." ”

Scott nodded, waving his wand.

"The flames are blazing."

This time he increased the amount of mana he put into it, and at the same time adjusted the temperature of the flames, and the new fireball in front of him just appeared as blue as a symbol of high temperature.

Scott's hand kept moving, and before he could swing his wand, the blue fireball suddenly began to deform, elongating from a spherical shape to a flaming spear with a sharp tip.

As he swung his wand forward, the flaming spear shot forward at breakneck speed.

At the same time, Edgar tacitly got out of the way.

In an instant, the blue flame spear struck the ice corpse's face, and then directly pierced its massive skull, as well as the layer of ice armor behind its head.

The head was thoroughly pierced, and the ice corpse's movements finally stopped, and it fell straight to the ground.

When it fell, the corpse burst into flames, not even the thick layer of ice armor that wrapped around its body.

But as the flames burned more and more, blue, green, black...... Strange gases of various colors emanated directly from the burning corpse, and then spread rapidly.

"Be careful!" Helena exclaimed.

"Armor protection!"

Scott pointed his wand in front of his hand, and a silver beam of light connected to the magic barrier around him, beginning to increase the strength of the magic barrier to the greatest extent.

This action was not useless, and when the gas coming out of the corpse came into contact with the magic barrier, Scott clearly sensed that the magic barrier was being eroded by the unknown gas and was rapidly damaged.

If he hadn't filled it in time, this layer of protective shield might not have been able to be saved.

"It's too dangerous." Helena frowned and said, "This must be some kind of poison." ”

"Luckily, I was prepared." Scott said.

"Then be more careful." Helena reminded him, "The number of monsters ahead will gradually increase. ”

Scott wasn't too surprised by this.

But he wasn't too worried.

"Fortunately, this kind of ice corpse can be regarded as restrained by high-temperature flames, and it can be defeated from a distance."

As he spoke, he continued to maintain the replenishment of the mana barrier as he continued to move forward.

After passing by the corpse, a few more minutes passed, and in the more spacious passageway, this time two ice corpses blocked the way at the same time.

Due to his previous experience, this time Scott didn't wait for them to fully wake up, and controlled two flame spears at once to pierce their heads directly.

On the way after that, as Helena said, the number of corpses blocking the road was always gradually increasing.

But none of this really bothered Scott.

Even though he fought all the way, his magic power was still abundant, even if he shaped a dozen flame spears at a time and fired a salvo, it would not be difficult.

Of course, with such a strong endurance, the two golden acorns that Sawanna gave him also played a role.

Although he rarely used the two spells sealed in these two golden acorns, the increased mana recovery speed they brought to Scott still liked it.

In addition, as he spent more time manipulating fire with magic, Scott became more proficient in his movements, and became more comfortable with the transformation of flames, which is an immaterial pure energy.

His movements towards the ice corpses became more and more fluent, and he did not slow down his progress as the number of ice corpses increased.

After breaking through the "checkpoint" of seven ice corpses blocking the way, he finally saw two huge closed doors on the mountain wall in front of him.

At this point, they seemed to have arrived in a hollow in the belly of the mountain, which was several times larger than the Great Hall of Hogwarts.

Scott walked straight to the mountain wall, looked up at the two large stone doors, and carefully read the faint handwriting carved into the doors.

These are likewise initial rune runes.

Thanks to the combined efforts of Scott and Ravenclaw, they quickly understood the meaning of the runes.

Roughly speaking, it means –

[Welcome to "Niflheim", latecomer.]

The slight obstacles ahead are just to prove that you are truly qualified to inherit the ideals of "Asgard".

As you can imagine, behind the door is where we store our knowledge.

But these two doors will not be pushed open.

You have to use "Euktrasil"!

Use the power of space to break through the obstacles of the door!

Only by mastering that magic to the fullest can you get what you want. ］
