Laufey

"I'm not a mage!"

Forseti clenched Verrigan's Fist tightly, and the Holy Light struck with a hammer.

The One-Eyed Frost Giant was caught off guard and quickly parried, but Verrigan's Fist burst into flames, burning his hands, causing him to cry out, "Ah!"

Frost giants are very uncomfortable with heat, let alone fire.

At this moment, being burned by the flames, the hands of the One-Eyed Frost Giant suddenly showed a state similar to melting and festering, which looked rather miserable.

Forseti charged up with the Fist of Verrigan.

"Chong!"

The One-Eyed Frost Giant's broadsword and Verrigan's Fist collided, and flames erupted again.

But this time, the Frost Giant took precautions. Although he was still burned a little, he at least stabilized his position and wasn't as embarrassed as before.

As he stabilized his position, the strength of both sides became apparent.

After all, Forseti is underage and thin. While the Holy Light spell is sharp, facing the Frost Giant Warrior head-on is a different matter.

"Clang clang!"

Every time the Frost Giant slashed, Forseti parried with great difficulty. After a while, his arms trembled, and he was almost unable to hold his weapon.

"Chong!"

The weapons clashed again, and Forseti was almost crushed by the Frost Giant's power, nearly falling to the ground, cold sweat on his forehead.

The Frost Giant widened his eyes angrily, pressing down steadily while gnashing his teeth.

During the stalemate, the holy light flashed on Forseti's body, activating the divine protection spell.

Then he pulled away the Fist of Verrigan and took the Frost Giant's blow with his chest.

The Frost Giant's strength was beyond Forseti's imagination. Despite the double protection of inner armor and divine protection, he still felt sharp pain in his chest and obvious bleeding.

Fortunately, his internal organs weren't injured, and there was no serious problem for the time being.

At the cost of a chest injury, Verrigan's Fist was able to hit the Frost Giant's head.

"Boom!"

Holy light and flames intertwined and erupted, directly smashing the Frost Giant's face beyond recognition.

The One-Eyed Frost Giant twitched and fell to the ground like mud, dying.

Forseti felt the pain in his chest and immediately sat on the ground, panting and quickly releasing the faith to heal himself.

Only three of the eight ice bear cavalrymen remained, and Ander's team easily dealt with them. After a while, they wiped out all the enemies and gathered to make some adjustments.

The entire team had one killed, four wounded, and eight bear cavalrymen killed. This was likely the best record among ordinary warriors in the entire camp.

However, Forseti, Ander, and the others were not excited, as the entire camp was somewhat defeated.

Berserkers, Valkyries, and Einherjar—all the elites—were dispatched but were still no match for the large army of Frost Giants.

Hela's long sword flew out of her hand, resembling a swift flying swallow, quickly killing the Frost Giants around her.

However, the Frost Giants besieging her were numerous and seemed endless, gradually wearing her down.

A group of ice bear cavalry noticed Ander's team and rushed over.

Ander stood up with his sword. "Prepare to fight!"

"Master Ullr should have discovered the problem. Why haven't reinforcements come..." He clenched his fist and muttered.

Forseti was silent, a haze between his brows.

As Hermond's father, Ullr, the current Asgard gatekeeper, also had all-seeing power. He should have discovered the emergency at the seventh outpost and sent reinforcements.

( Heidi will be called Hermond . God of speed from Norse mythology)

Just as he thought this, an ice-blue beam of light shot out, heading straight for the Mirror of the Sun in the camp's center.

The camp was trying its best to fight the Frost Giants, with no strength to deal with this beam of light. The momentum of this icy blue beam was formidable and not easily resisted.

At the critical moment, a golden light curtain rose from the Mirror of the Sun, blocking the icy blue light column.

Golden and blue rays of light rushed out like fireworks, strong magical fluctuations sweeping round after round, like boulders breaking the water.

Unfortunately, the golden light curtain was powerless and soon defeated.

The icy blue light pierced the curtain and hit the Mirror of the Sun.

"Boom!"

The Mirror of the Sun flickered violently a few times, then shattered into a pile of broken transparent shards, scattering everywhere.

As the Mirror of the Sun was shattered, the camp's scorching power immediately dissipated.

The endless cold of Jotunheim raged in, rolling up gusts of icy wind.

"Hahaha, my king is coming! Asgardians, your end is here!"

The cold wind raged, the Frost Giants intoxicated, their combat power increased, and they grew more arrogant, while the Asgardians felt fear.

"It's Laufey!"

"Laufey, the King of Frost!"

Several exclamations sounded.

Forseti looked and saw a tall, thin Frost Giant riding a bear into the camp, holding an ice-blue square box filled with astonishing cold power.

A group of Einherjar rushed forward with a roar.

Laufey looked calm, the box in his hand shining brightly, an ice-blue beam of light sweeping out and easily destroying the Einherjar team.

With the Mirror of the Sun destroyed and the appearance of Frost King Laufey, the seventh outpost's morale quickly collapsed, and some began to flee.

"Prepare to retreat!" Hela gritted her teeth, struggled to control her long sword, and issued the order while breaking through the siege.

Some warriors mustered their last strength and discipline, fighting and retreating, gathering around Hela to prepare for retreat.

As one of the teams with the most complete combat power, Ander's team successfully reached Hela. Of course, they paid a price in the process, losing several members.

Seeing Forseti holding a hammer in his right hand and a staff in his left, Hela's eyes flashed with surprise. She immediately assigned the team: "You will cover the retreat of the main force with me."

Ander's squad was assigned to the task.

As a healer, Forseti wasn't a member of Ander's team, but Hela specifically pointed to him.

Forseti groaned inwardly.

*Princess Hela, we had a relationship at least once, and you still singled me out... isn't that too harsh?*

Hela ignored his eyes and pointed to Hermond. "Hermond, rush to the first outpost and ask them to send reinforcements."

"Yes!"

Before he finished speaking, Hermond ran away, disappearing into the distance in the blink of an eye, the afterimage slowly dissipating.

"Crash."

At the same time, Hermond's armor and weapons fell from the afterimage, scattering along the way. His figure had disappeared, but the armor still shook slightly on the ground.

Forseti was startled.

*This... runs faster than Pegasus!*
