Chapter 252 Lan En: Take a deep breath and stabilize your mind.
The ice giant bows to Lan En, like a subject meeting a king, and like a believer praying to the supreme.
But no matter what, everyone knows that Skellig's ice giant will no longer be a problem for the Skellig people in the future.
Harold had just woken up and his eyes were in a trance. He couldn't believe his eyes. If someone told him that East killed the ice giant to save him, he might question it a few times, let alone the scene where the ice giant bows to Lann now?
East waved his hand and told the guards around him to put away their weapons. Even he had to take a few deep breaths to calm down his mood at the moment.
The attendants and soldiers of Cintra expressed their respect and emotions in the most direct way. They worshiped Duke Lannister directly, as if they wanted to compete with the ice giant for their loyalty to the Lord.
The expressions on the faces of the witchers, druids, and sorceresses were even more exciting, and their emotions were also turbulent and unspeakable.
"Gululu——"
At this moment, a charred oak statue suddenly rolled out from the ice giant's leather armor that had just been tattered by the flames.
This statue looks like a bear and a human, with teeth and claws. It should have been so cold that one could feel chills all over the body just by looking at it, but now it has been burned beyond recognition by the flames, and no vision can be seen anymore.
There were many people watching in all directions, and their eyes were focused on the Ice Giant. Now that they saw the statue rolling out of the Ice Giant, their minds suddenly felt enlightened.
Stringed together.
Fetov's expression was complicated, seeming to be lamenting but also feeling relieved: "I probably know where Artis has gone, that traitor to the way of nature, the last believer of the Svablo sect..." He looked at the expression that was displayed on the screen
. The ice giant with druid spells looked at the respectful look on Lan's face, shook his head, and swallowed the rest of his words.
Then I saw that the Ice Giant might feel that the kneeling posture was uncomfortable, so he adjusted his posture slightly, and with a "chirp" he stepped on the charred oak statue under his feet and crushed it into the soil.
...
The appearance of the statue was naturally seen by Lan. There was no record of the ice giant that could use druid magic, either in the previous game or in the history of this world, so he had already speculated about this phenomenon. .
It wasn't until he saw the oak statue of Svablo that his guess was confirmed.
But Lann was not worried, because just as he was recovering the ice giant, systematic prompts sounded one after another - [
Mission - Fury of Glacier - Completed]
[Mission - Silent Fury - Completed]
[Mission Level Improvement +1]
Two tasks are completed one after another. The former appeared when East invited Lan to join the crusade against the Ice Giants, but it was shelved later because the king selection plan was changed. Lan thought there was no chance of completing it; the latter was proposed by King Bran at the time. The initiative "Whoever Destroys Svablot and Becomes King" appeared at the time. Later, it failed to enter the settlement because the extermination of the cult was not clean enough. However, the actual progress was enough for East to become king, so it was shelved.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, these two tasks were completed together by chance. At the same time, because these two tasks were close to the level of the main mission, Lann was forced to fill up the experience that he had just consumed and let him level up again.
The joy in his heart can no longer be described by outsiders, but at this moment, Lann looks at the system panel of the Ice Giant, and the pride in his heart is even more indescribable.
[Follower: Jotun
Gender: Male
Race: Ice Giant
Level: 1
Talent: Ice, Magic Source
Experience Value: 0/1000
Health Value : 32000/32000
Mana Value: 4400/4400
Item Slot: None
Skill Slot: Ice Bloodline, alpine bloodline, rapid metabolism, overlord's command, druid system spells, low-level
tasks: none]
[Shared follower talent: Magic Source]
[Magic Source: Total magic value increased by 100%]
This system panel only looks at these basic attributes It's enough to make people feel relaxed and happy.
With a four-digit health value, the strength and defense it brings are definitely enough to form an army for one person. This is also the combat effectiveness that the Skellige people have proven for the Ice Giants through countless years of defeat.
A unique dual talent, I understand why this happens. Although the mana value is much lower than the health value, it is already stronger than most spell casters, at least stronger than Nanomi, the night demon Lan Lan contracted before.
At the same time, Lan also noticed that the name and race of the ice giant did not have a parenthetical suffix, unlike Bill who would display a form like [Skellig Bear (human)] after his transformation; at the same time, the ice giant's There is no [Berserker Transformation] in the skill bar.
From this point of view, Attis is indeed dead. Lann can now basically review the other party's behavior. All the previous turmoil was probably a grand sacrifice dedicated to the evil god Svablo, with the purpose of turning Artis into an unprecedented ice giant berserker.
I have to admire the boldness of this plan and the horror behind it: a super monster that can dominate Skellige for thousands of years with its physical body alone, possesses the magic-level druid's spell-casting talent and a complete spell-casting system. Just thinking about it. The heart and liver tremble.
But now it seems that this process was obviously unexpected. According to East's account, the size of this ice giant was once again raised to more than ten meters. This was obviously the effect of Attis's strengthening. He used the evil god and his own magic to try to create a figure that was unparalleled in the world. body.
But now, not only did Attis' soul not occupy the giant's body, but became a wedding garment, even his IQ and spellcasting ability were not inherited by this monster.
This can be seen from the panel. Although the Ice Giant has a huge magic value brought by the [Magic Source] talent, the [low-level] Druid system spells are simply not enough to exert this huge magic power. .
Except for the ability to summon a blizzard, which is an innate ability of the ice giant, Lan estimated that the monster knew only the spell that turned oak wood into a long stick.
I wonder if this guy will be able to learn spells in the future, or else he will leave it to Mossack...
By the way, how many things does Mossack have on hand now?
...
Kolgrim was very courageous. He ran over quietly, thought for two seconds, and finally couldn't restrain his curiosity and patted the ice giant's calf.
The touch is like a layer of dragon's leather wrapped on the thousand-year-old rock. It is hard but tough, and at the same time exudes a slight freezing air like ice. Kolgrim, who had taken the time to slash the ice giant several times in the previous battle, would never doubt the defensive power of this muscle.
The actions of the snake sect witchers seemed to have pressed a switch, and the druids, sorceresses, and remaining witchers all gathered around, either out of pure curiosity or with the intention of academic inquiry. , looked up and down together at this uniquely powerful monster in the world.
There is only one exception, and that is Gede.
After the bear sect witcher looked at the ice giant with surprised eyes, he did not start to move his hands up and down like the others, nor did he start discussing collecting tissue samples like the sorceress and druid - he just stepped back. step.
"After rescuing Lord Harold and recovering the Ice Giant, can we go back?" Gerd asked Lann.
He seemed to be returning home: "Originally, I was planning to retire, but I didn't expect that I would finally be able to participate in such a legendary battle - Hey, Ice Giant!" As he said this, Gede began to laugh
.
But Lan slowly frowned.
Lann didn't feel uncomfortable because of Gede's words. He already knew that there was nothing he could do to reverse Gede's intention to retire. Although he was reluctant to give up, he would still send his blessings.
But he suddenly thought that when he contracted the ice giant, he almost failed.
At that time, after a whole level of experience was consumed, the Ice Giant's sense of resistance was still very strong. If it hadn't suddenly increased by a small amount of experience at the critical moment, Lann might have achieved nothing.
In this case, the increase in experience is naturally due to the followers. Lann initially thought that it was Ace who was doing flower work on Thanede Island, or that the cat-sect witcher Kian in Novigrad was working hard, but when he took a quick glance, he discovered that The level of Svenregi stationed on Little Skellig Island suddenly increased.
Could it be that this young man received a big job at the main mission level just a few days after becoming a servant, or that he took the initiative to imitate other members of the "Lions" and started to hoe the strong and support the weak without Lann's instruction? ?
With this thought, Lan opened Svanregi's follower panel. After seeing the attributes and tasks displayed on it, his expression immediately changed.
[Follower: Svanrej Ann Tursek
(omitted)
HP: 187/230
(omitted)
Mission: Defense of Tursek]
——In
Svanrej’s original expectation, his uncle (East) and his cousin (Lan) went to support the Todaloch family, and then his father led the army to encircle and suppress the ice giants that had troubled the entire Skellige for thousands of years. This whole process was difficult. It will take several months.
Before Bran left, he asked Torgil to take care of Svanrej. It happened that there were certain things in the Tursek family's castle that Svanrej tried his best to avoid, so the future heir of the Tursek family simply He took advantage of the situation and moved into the castle of his elders.
Torzir has not been involved in political affairs for many years, but East and Bran both studied with him when they were young. Therefore, if anything happened on Little Skellig Island during this time period that required the lord to come forward to solve it, Svarui Jidu humbly asked Torgil for his opinion and respected his thoughts.
Svenridge felt that he had gained a lot. He actually had very little communication with Bran in the past. After all, Bran went to sea all year round. Most of the time, he stayed with Bilna to learn etiquette and social lessons.
Torgil was surprised to find that this little guy who used to often follow his mother had real insights into many things. He was also very skillful when leading his men and had high execution ability. Gradually, his relationship with Svenridge became better and better. , often sending his own private army to follow Svenregi out to handle affairs in the territory.
However, on this day, when Svenridge led the soldiers to explore an area where water ghosts were said to be infested, before they even approached the castle, they suddenly heard a loud shouting of killing.
He stepped forward quickly, and what he saw was an extremely arrogant Black Sun flag, and hundreds of elite soldiers wearing Black Sun armor!
Nilfgaardians! Why now? Almost all the troops in Skellige were concentrated on Udvik Island, when the defense was at its most empty!
Torzir himself was an independent lord from his family, with no more than a hundred guards around him. The Skelligs can face enemies several times their own on the sea, but their combat effectiveness on the plains is very average.
"That's Svanregi, the prince of Skellige!" As soon as Svanregi appeared, the Nilfgaardian soldiers saw him. Outsiders still didn't know what happened in the islands during this period, and they didn't know that East A new king has been crowned.
"He is the son of a pirate! Let him pay off his father's debt first!" Some of the Black Sun soldiers immediately branched out and fought with Svanridge. Fortunately, Torgil really cared about Svanrej, and the guards sent to follow him were all elite, and they kept him safe for a while.
"Svanrej, go quickly!" Seeing his juniors being involved in his own battle, Torgil, who was not far away, shouted anxiously, "They are just lambs from the Golden Tower City. I have robbed them before." How many times have I known that nothing will happen to me!"
Hearing Torzir's shout, the eyes of the Nilfgaardian soldiers turned red, and the weapons in their hands were even more powerful. Even some of the soldiers who originally besieged Svenrej Looking back again.
"Hurry back to the castle and don't fight! I'll find a way to contact Master Druid to recall some of the troops! Nilfgaard can no longer be the same. They have swept through most of the north and are Lann's strong enemy!"
Svenrej was not as confident as Thorgil. Bilna has been paying attention to the flow of the mainland's aristocratic class all year round, and naturally brought back a lot of information. Svenreggi learned from it and already knew that Nilfgaard was no longer what it used to be.
In response to Svenridge's words, the loyal guards around him continued to fall while attacking the Black Sun Flag. Thorjir seemed to suddenly wake up from a dream, looking at these well-equipped and fearless enemies in front of him. Soldier.
"Really? Nilfgaard...has become a giant?" It was only then that Torzir realized that these were no longer the lambs that cried under their plunder.
"But even if I face a giant, I can still cut something down!"
Torzir laughed.
"Woo--"
A dull horn sound suddenly sounded, and the sound made Svenridge's hair stand on end.
Sure enough, then there was an exaggerated sound of breaking wind in his ears, as if he was facing a typhoon on the coast, and even the sunlight above his head was blocked for a moment.
As soon as he looked up, he saw a stone larger than a man flying towards the castle where he had lived for several days at the speed of an arrow. With a "bang", a huge gap suddenly appeared in the wall of the castle.
Then came the second, third, and fourth boulders, each of which would bite off a piece of the castle wall like a cake. Svenrej watched helplessly as half of the castle collapsed like a sandcastle hit by waves.
What made him dizzy was that Torgil was still under the castle! He was just buried under the dust and rocks!
At this moment, the Nilfgaardians and the soldiers of the Islands were still fighting. Many Black Sun soldiers were affected by the attacks of these trebuchets, but their morale became even higher. The man who was injured on the ground shouted in a voice that could not be heard from behind:
"One more round! Turn this castle into ruins and raze it to the ground! Let these pirates also taste the taste of losing their home!
" Fan Ruiji's eyes suddenly turned red. There was no need to think about retreat at this moment. No matter whether Torgil was dead or alive, the honor of the islanders and the responsibility as a junior did not allow him to take a step back.
He roared, and all the martial arts skills that had been taught in swordsmanship lessons appeared in his mind at this moment and merged into his muscles. He strode into the battle group from the rear protected by the team. For a while, he actually cooperated well with the guards and killed several Nilfgaardian soldiers in a row.
However, although there are only a hundred Nilfgaardians, the number of islanders is even smaller. In addition, most of them were killed and wounded in previous trebuchet sneak attacks. After all, Svenregi's team became smaller and smaller, and the formation was like a wave of waves. The sailing ship in the boat was in danger.
"Torgil is dead, seize the pirate's son! Let the pirate king taste the taste of losing his son!" The
Nilfgaardians became more and more excited, and surged up like a tide.
Then, they saw an emerald light suddenly light up on Svenridge's body.
I recommend a friend’s new book "A Guide to Tasting Witches
", but you can tell what the ingredients are just by looking at the title (laughs~)
