Now that December is approaching, winter has entered in the north. Ordinary creatures can only huddle in the stoves of houses to keep warm. Giants with cold elements can take advantage of the perfect opportunity to plunder whatever they want.

These giants who believe in Thorem, the father of frost giants, prefer wine, animals, leather, clothing, tools, decorations, and large enough gems, but have little interest in gold coins and weak humans unless food is in short supply.

Even so, the destruction of houses during snowstorms will still bring disaster to mankind.

Frostfield Village is the gateway to the Frostfall Land. It was once inhabited by orcs and humans, and has almost never been threatened by frost giants.

But this year, the rampage of magical beasts and the scarcity of prey made them focus on this place.

The frost giants didn't know that the Star People couldn't eat it.

"I originally planned to leave before the snowstorm hit Shuangyuan Village, but I didn't expect that something like this would happen."

While lamenting that he was really a disaster star, Chen used the Holy Light Envoy to observe the movements of the frost giant tribe.

Unfortunately, the snowfall obscured his vision, making it difficult for him to see the other party's specific movements.

"There's still half a day to a day before the snowstorm comes." Bell updated his weather forecast in real time, "If we want to leave, it's best to leave tomorrow morning."

Frost giant raids will destroy Frostfield Village, but this is not the first time it has been destroyed.

Anyway, the people of the Star will not die, so they will be fine if they take a little shelter.

"But it's impossible to give in every time. People will still have to live in Shuangyuan Village in the future." Chen Zhou thought, "How about I go negotiate with the frost giant?"

If you can exchange some gifts (other than potions of Frost Giant Strength) for friendship, you can solve the problem once and for all and gain a group of powerful allies.

For this reason, continued trade with frost giants is not unacceptable.

"This is too dangerous." The guard chief frowned, "Last time we paid such a high price to deal with one, but this time we are facing an entire tribe."

At least a dozen frost giant warriors and dozens of pets and slaves.

"It's a little dangerous."

Chen muttered that he hadn't been in a high-intensity fight since then - Bob couldn't beat him even with all his strength.

As a result, he was not sure whether his strength was enough.

Frost giants admire strength. If they cannot defeat their entire tribe single-handedly, the other party may only regard him as a lamb to be slaughtered rather than a partner to befriend.

It would be nice if I could try fighting a frost giant alone...

Just as he was thinking of this, he observed the frost giants swarming out of the tribe through the small ball of light.

And the direction they are heading towards is Shuangyuan Village in the south!

"It seems that the excessive number and scale of the Star People gave them the illusion that this place is very wealthy."

Chen immediately made the decision to stay here for a few days, taking this perfect opportunity to test his strength.

"Are you really planning to establish diplomatic relations with the frost giants?"

Seeing the other party trying to negotiate with the frost giant, the dwarf who had a feud with the giant immediately objected: "Even if they are defeated by you and decide to settle for the time being, they will only laugh at your stupidity and cowardice instead of sincerely negotiating with you. Only dead giants are good." giant!"

Helin agrees to stay and fight the frost giants' raids, but she must put an end to the baron's foolish fantasies.

In addition to strength, what giants respect is "rank". The rank of a giant defeated in a one-on-one battle will be lowered and he will no longer serve as the leader. At that time, the promises he made will naturally become invalid.

Besides, she didn't think Chen could defeat the giant head-on.

"Don't worry, I understand. What I pursue is stability rather than equality. If the frost giants don't accept the proposal and insist on attacking, I will try to kill them directly."

It was not appropriate to make a living giant into a belt that provided strength, but using the blood of a dead giant as a potion outlet was within his acceptable range.

He Lin was a little helpless. The correct approach was to set up traps before the meeting and kill them directly without giving them a chance to exert their power.

After Jin Jianlayer made the decision to garrison Shuangyuan Village, the silent Star People suddenly spoke.

"I have a question. You just said that the main god of the frost giants is Sole... what is that?" Pagoda Town River Demon asked with a confused look on his face.

He just thought the name sounded familiar, so he checked it on the Internet, and found that the father of the frost giants in this world, Thorem, actually appeared in the Norse mythology of Blue Star!

Chen, who has a good say on this topic, explained: "This is normal. Gods can spread their influence to other planes, and occasionally use clones and projections to walk in the world to achieve specific purposes."

"Even when some stone tablets are lost, some unlucky gods will be punished and sent to the material plane to suffer. Some even die because of this."

But I don't want to talk about it outside.

Jin Gaola was thoughtful. Last time, the other party also said that Fengdu is on the 300th floor of the Abyss. So, can people who believe in kind gods on Blue Star come to this world and try to be priests?

For example, Mazu, Emperor Guan Sheng, God Haotian, etc...

"Maybe you can try to trust a monkey who works all day long."

"Maybe it is possible, but what the pastor looks at is not belief but behavior and belief. It is useless no matter how fanatical the fanatic believers are just for profit."

Jin Kaila sent it secretly. Who believes in God not for the rice, flour, grain, oil and eggs?

Chen Zhou shrugged. If it were so easy to become a priest, he would have become a godless priest as soon as he passed through... The domain is cats and laziness.



The snow kept falling, and the atmosphere was no longer harmonious. Under the threat of the frost giant, Shuangyuan Village immediately began to prepare for war.

Having said that, as the wind and snow became more and more fierce, there was only a limit to what the Star People could do.

The Frost Giant is really an enemy that exceeds the specifications for them at present, and it will be difficult to completely defeat them before the next version (level 30 version).

What's more, giants never take the lead in charging. Trolls, ogres, and winter wolves are also no small threats.

With infinitely regenerating trolls as human shields in the front, and giants in the back who can throw boulders to instantly shatter bones as backup, ordinary cities can be easily breached, let alone a small village being rebuilt.

To this end, the Star People spent several days (copying new magic) to develop a more underworld tactic - Cluster Missile Storm Barrage.

"Magic missiles" break through obstructions, are sure to hit, and do force field damage. As long as the number increases, even a giant dragon will be hit on the head and bleed!

Two days later, when the fortifications were almost complete, the frost giants who were marching quickly in the snowstorm appeared several hundred meters away from the frost plain village.

The marching horn sounded from among them, and the fearless trolls rushed towards the village in the first round with useless "flame arrows"!

However, the adventurers could not go out to meet the enemy, so they tried to break through the weakening of the wind and snow by using the "Fire Arrow" at close range.

Continuous boulders destroyed walls, smashed into villages, and knocked down houses, leaving no room for counterattack!
