Chapter Ninety-Five: Jotunheim
Jotunheim.
A place of extreme cold that has not changed for thousands of years.
At this time, with a glacier as the boundary, the army and giants of Asgard each occupied a piece of the world and confronted each other.
Loki stood in front of the formation, feeling the excitement and longing faintly from the cold wind in his body, and he felt extremely disgusted in his heart.
Since the accident he encountered when he came to fight with Thor before, and after returning to Asgard, he secretly went to contact the ice box in Odin's treasury.
All of this tells him: you have the blood of the Frost Giant.
This is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Loki, who has coveted the throne of Asgard since he was a child!
He now hates the entire Frost Giants to death!
Now that Odin has fallen into a deep slumber and Thor has died in Midgard, as long as he continues to conquer Jotunheim as Odin did in the past, he will do even better, cut off the head of the Frost Giant King Laufey, and lead the army to victory! The Queen Mother will definitely forgive him, and he, Loki, will become the rightful God-King of Asgard!
"Loki, what are you waiting for? If we let the giants form a battle formation, the situation will be very unfavorable for us! ”
The commander of the cavalry phalanx walked up to him on a tall war horse and gave his opinion.
Loki glared at the man and said coldly:
"General Lockerbie, are you questioning my orders?"
Commander Lockerbie, who was wearing battle armor, only felt anger surging when he heard this, but after glancing at Kungunir in Loki's hand, he still didn't scold after all, and after snorting coldly, he patted his horse and left with a dada.
Loki saw the look in Lockerbie's eyes before he turned around, obviously full of contempt for him.
"Humph! Idiot! ”
Loki also knows the power of the giants after forming a battle formation, but he is confident that he will lead the army of Asgard to defeat them, it is nothing more than a few more deaths, he wants to defeat this group of unknown guys head-on!
Finally, Jotunheim's army was assembled, and the giants looked at the Asgardian army opposite with the most ferocious gaze, they were born with a desire to kill, and this kind of hard-fought battle was exactly what they craved.
On the other hand, the soldiers of Asgard, many of whom were veterans of the Nine Realms with Odin, had many encounters with the giants of Jotunheim, so they knew how strong and terrifying the enemy was.
Seeing that the opposite formation was completed, the veterans had already drenched Loki, the stupid fork in their eyes, in their hearts.
"What about your king? Why didn't Laufey show up? Could it be that he was afraid? ”
Loki stepped out of the crowd, the tip of the Eternal Spear in his hand pointing forward, and said in a majestic tone.
"Asgardians, have all the years of comfort turned your brains to stone?"
A Frost Giant Commander, much taller than a normal soldier, squeezed through the giants and mocked:
"There is no Odin, there is no Thor, and a thin and small dwarf who blows down in the wind is allowed to lead the troops into battle?"
"You're insulting Asgard's next God-King!"
Enraged, Loki rushed out with the Eternal Spear in his hand, and fought with the Frost Giant Commander, leaving the Asgardian veterans dumbfounded.
General Lockerbie secretly cursed "fool" in his heart, and then decisively raised the spear in his hand and shouted:
"Warriors of Asgard! Charge! May we be together in Valhalla! ”
"May we meet in Valhalla!"
The cavalry followed in the footsteps of General Lockerbie and charged the enemy.
The infantry battle formation was also divided into two phalanxes under the orders of their own commanders, the forward phalanx raised their weapons and rushed towards the enemy after the cavalry battle formation, and the rear phalanx remained in place and erected rows of huge shields to defend the archers at the rear.
The cavalry of Asgard, with the speed advantage of their horses, quickly rushed to the front of the first line of the giants.
General Lockerbie, who rushed to the forefront, lowered his body, lowered the heavy spear in his hand, and shouted:
"Break the formation!"
The knights who received the order followed the example of their generals and prepared to break through the enemy lines.
The one-ton spear, with the blessing of the high-speed running of the war horse, easily broke through the thick ice armor of the frost giants and pierced their bodies.
For a moment, the Frost Giants were overturned by the heavy cavalry of Asgard, and a large gap was broken in the line.
Loki rolled around the Frost Giant's Lord's Hammer and circled behind it, and Kungunir shot him in the Giant's abdomen.
Unexpectedly, although this Frost Giant Commander was huge, his reaction speed and movements were not ordinarily fast.
It turned around and elbowed, striking diagonally at the body of the Eternal Spear, and Loki was so stunned that he almost didn't hold it and let the weapon fly out.
"Hahaha! Little guy, Odin's artifact is much less powerful in your hands, and your fighting skills are also a mess! ”
The Giant Commander who had tested Loki's depth laughed out loud, he had seen the power of this top-level artifact in Odin's hands back then, and now Loki hadn't even used a fraction of it.
Loki, whose face was ugly, seemed to be dying and struggling, and without dodging, he poked the spear in his hand directly at the face of the giant leader.
"Click"
The Giant Warlord moved his head to the side, easily dodging the blow, then reached out his right hand and gripped Kungunir's spear tightly.
"I say, little man, you're too weak! Odin snatched the treasure of our town group back then, and now I'm going to keep his broken spear as a trophy! ”
The Giant Warlord let out a cry of excitement and grabbed his right hand from the barrel of the spear and pulled it back, and Loki was brought to it.
Then it picked up the ice-blue hammer in its left hand and slammed it down on Loki in front of it with a strong wind.
"No!"
General Lockerbie saw this scene, his eyes were split, although he had always disliked Loki, but after all, it was their prince of Asgard, and if Loki was killed in front of his eyes, it would be the greatest shame for him, the general who swore allegiance to Asgard.
Enraged, General Lockerbie kicked the Frost Giant as it struck him, and his heavy cavalry spear was used as a throwing spear, and it was fired at the Giant's arm.
The cavalry spear, which was so fast that it had an afterimage, successfully hit its target, and flew out with its left arm as the giant lord wailed.
However, the Ice Hammer still smashed into Loki's location, and the huge impact sent ice chips flying in all directions on the hard ice, and the snow flakes danced.
