Chapter 45: The Death of a Giant
Hearing Little Lori's shout, everyone vigilantly pricked up their ears to listen to the surrounding movements, but they didn't hear any sound, and even the cold night wind on the snowfield stopped.
"What's the sound, the little villain won't be playing with us again, is he?" Catherine whispered as she walked over to Rogge and glanced at Lilith in Tully's arms.
"No, there's something approaching......" Rogge raised his hand to signal Murphy and Catherine to be quiet, and the two looked at him solemnly, looking at each other in confusion, not understanding what he had heard.
"Come here!" Rogge beckoned to Tali and Lilith, who were sitting in the snow not far away, and Tali picked up Lilith from the ground and walked towards Rog, and within a few steps, the ground suddenly shook.
"What's that?" asked Tully, who came to Rog's side, in disbelief.
"I'm afraid it's not friends, we'd better find a place to hide first!" Rogge said as he looked around at the riverbank, where there was no place to hide in the snow.
He glanced down at the snow under his feet, and said to the four people beside him, "Come, help me!"
A moment later, a figure five or six meters tall appeared on the snowfield in the night, he was dressed in golden armor, exposed his limbs as thick as stone pillars, and ran towards the river with two big feet barefoot, and behind him, a group of equally strong giants were struggling to catch up.
The galloping giant stopped by the river, his gaze sweeping across both sides of the glacier, and there was nothing around but a few raised snowdrifts not far away.
He stepped on the ice and prepared to cross the river, but the ice could not bear his weight, and in an instant a large area shattered, and the giant, who had lost his center of gravity, almost fell into the river and hurriedly regained his feet and retreated to the shore.
At this moment, the pursuers who were following closely behind rushed to the river and surrounded the golden armored giants.
"There's no way for you to escape, Ted, today is your time to die!" the silver-armored giant led by the leader pointed the giant axe in his hand at the golden-armored giant, and the giants around him swung their long axes and war hammers to pounce.
With no way out, he struck down one of the giant soldiers, snatched the sledgehammer from his hand and smashed the head of the giant who pounced on him, and grabbed one of the giant soldiers who pounced on him from the side, throwing him into the glacier behind him.
"Ted, you can't defeat the Heir of the Titans!"
Seeing that the soldiers couldn't take Ted, the leader of the silver armor shouted in anger, and the heavy giant axe slashed at Ted, who hurriedly raised the giant hammer to hold the edge of the axe, but was unable to push the opponent's axe away.
Taking advantage of the wrestling between the two, two giant soldiers rushed up from both sides and stabbed Ted's legs with spears, causing Ted to fall to the ground with a scream, his heavy body stirring the snow on the ground into the sky.
"What else do you have to say about taking your life on the orders of Thorin, King of the Titans, coward?"
The leader of the silver armor stepped forward and stepped on Ted's chest, smiling as he stared at the lamb waiting to be slaughtered at his feet, and the giant soldiers around him swarmed up and put their blades on Ted's body.
"You traitors, who follow Thorin, the rebel son to murder the heir to the Titan throne, my brother Tyrell will definitely break you to pieces!" said the golden-armored giant Ted through gritted teeth.
"Tyrell, that little guy is already too busy to take care of himself, stupid fellow, you don't deserve to take over the throne of the Titans, die!"
The silver-armored leader shouted, and the battle axe in his hand slashed down, and Ted's blood splattered on the snow on the riverbank, melting the snow into a cloud of blood.
"Let's go, it's time to get back to Lord Thorin, and clean up Tyrell and his idiots!" the Silverarmor leader viciously kicked Ted's corpse, turning and walking away with the giant soldiers.
As the heavy footsteps of the giants faded away, in the snowdrift not far from Ted's corpse, Rog got his head out of the snow, he looked around cautiously, and after making sure it was safe, he pulled open the snowdrift and got out of it.
"It's alright, guys, come out!"
Murphy, Tully, and Catherine all emerged from the snow at Rogge's call, and they were all shocked to see the huge corpses and rivers of blood in front of them.
"Looks like we're in the midst of a battle for the birth of the new Titans. Rogge said, looking at Ted's corpse.
He pointed to Ted's corpse and turned back to his companions and said, "This guy should be Ted, the eldest son of the King of Titans, and the murderer is a subordinate of the second prince Thorin, who has heard that Thorin is an ambitious militant and has also participated in the war against the Cursed Lands. ”
"Judging from what they just said, Thorin has the upper hand," Murphy took Rogge's words and said, "The heir Ted is dead, and the rest is Thorin's third brother, Tyrell." ”
"Yes, now we have two goals, if it is really the Titans who stole the Hallows, then it must be related to the battle for the throne, and now we have to find out whether the Hallows are in Thorin's hands or in the hands of Tyrell. ”
Rog said as he pulled out the map from his body, pointed to someone in the northeast of the island, and said, "This is Hurricane Bluff, where Tyrell's castle is located, we might as well go here and find out the news first." ”
He looked back at Murphy and said, "Judging from the tone of Thorin's men just now, Tyrell's strength must be inferior to Thorin, and if there is a person who wants to win with the help of the Hallows, he must be bigger than Thorin!"
"This is a good opportunity, let's get involved in the Titans' family affairs!" Rogge's words stirred up an element of adventure in Murphy's blood, and he said to the crowd expectantly.
The five of them immediately set off from the river and followed the path of the giants to the north, and after a while on the snowy field, the road ahead was divided by a mountain beam, and the footprints of the giants stretched to the northwest, and the valley to the northeast led to a forest.
"Those guys must be back to Castle Thunder to get their lives back, we don't care about them, walk through the forest to Hurricane Bluff from here. Rogge pointed to the valley on his right, and led the group into the rime pine forest.
After walking in the silent pine forest for an unknown amount of time, the sky gradually began to turn white, but Rog suddenly stopped, looked down at the jungle on his right, and stopped.
"What's wrong with you?" asked Tali as she stopped beside Rogge, curious.
"There's something over there. Rogge stared at the pine forest in the right-hand direction and said, "I heard the sound of water over there, and there was a large fog in the woods, and it seemed that something was there." ”
Tali looked in the direction of his finger and sure enough, she saw a white mist filling the forest, and the little owl Lilith also came out of the hood behind Rogge's back and said, "I heard it too, something is stirring water!"
"What kind of monster is it?" said Catherine and Murphy, looking at the white mist that filled the forest.
Rogge shook his head lightly and said, "I don't know, but we might as well go over and have a look." ”
"Don't make any troubles!What if there's a monster?" Tali reached out and grabbed Rog's arm, but Rog smiled and broke free from her, saying, "You probably forgot what I do, I'm the one who makes a living dealing with monsters!"
He strode towards the misty woods, Tali glanced back at Murphy and Catherine uneasily, and the adventurer shook his head helplessly and said, "Let's go along, maybe things aren't as bad as we thought!"
The three of them followed Rogge into the thick white mist, and an inexplicable warmth soon lingered around them, and the snow on the ground became thinner and thinner, and seemed to melt into this melting warmth.
As they passed through the misty jungle, a wide lake appeared in front of them, and white heat rose from the surface of the lake, and the heat emitted made the land around the lake not a trace of snow but covered with green grass.
"It turned out to be a hot spring. Murphy smiled and said to Tully and Catherine, "Looks like we can rest here, we're tired after a long night's walk!"
Before the words fell, there was a "bang" in the lake, and a ** half-body woman came out of the water, her long black hair threw back a beautiful arc, and looked at the five people on the shore like a hibiscus out of the water, revealing a bewitching smile.
