"The meat in my mouth was stolen." Suhlen was in a bad mood. He looked back at the Barbarian tribe and left.
He had already decided to leave the Frost Giants behind. As for living in harmony with the Frost Giants? It was impossible. The Frost Giants were arrogant, cruel, and greedy. When they knew there was a human town nearby, their first thought was to rob it.
As Frost Giants of the Evil Faction, they didn't know what a win-win situation was. Perhaps in their mind, a win-win situation meant that they won twice.
Su Lun wanted to figure out the reason why these Frost Giants had come to the south. A Frost Giant tribe like this was a threat to the North Town, so there was no room for others to sleep on. A Legendary powerhouse could drop a lot of good things, such as Legendary Skill Points and Platinum Treasure Chests.
After returning to the caravan, they found a place to set up camp. It was getting late, so they started cooking and waiting for the army of the Northern Wastelands to arrive.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the next morning. After breakfast, Su Lun saw Hathaway and Alex arrive at the camp with the troops that had been assembled overnight.
The two brought Barbarian Warriors, Harpies, two teams of Half-Elf Archers, and two teams of Centaurs. Although there weren't many people, it was half of the Northern Wastelands' fighting force. They also brought some powerful weapons, 30 ballistae.
It was difficult for the ballistae to hit normal people, but it was much easier for the Frost Giants. If the ballistae were used as a trump card on the battlefield, the Frost Giants would definitely suffer.
Suhlen had been keeping an eye on the Frost Giants. At the same time, he told the army to rest as soon as possible. They had to be patient when facing this Frost Giant tribe.
Although the Frost Giants weren't the most powerful Giants, they were second only to the Storm Giants. An adult Frost Giant had around 29 points of strength and 21 points of constitution. Although they didn't have any magic abilities, they were still powerful enough. They were also immune to Ice Magic and had strong vitality. They wielded heavy weapons like killing machines. They were very difficult to deal with.
Of course, they were not without weaknesses. Frost Giants were afraid of fire, and fire could deal 150% damage to them.
In the past, some adventurers thought that they could easily kill the Frost Giants after knowing their weaknesses. But when they really did it, they realized that even if they knew the weaknesses of the Frost Giants, it was still very dangerous to kill them.
Although the challenge level of Frost Giants was LV 13, this was only in theory because Frost Giants usually lived in groups. Additionally, when facing a Frost Giant, one should never face its attack head-on. Even a rank 3 knight wearing a knight's plate armor would be blown away by a Frost Giant's full-strength strike. Fortunately, Frost Giants were not very agile due to their huge size, which gave the others a chance to dodge.
.....
The Frost Giants had a period of chaos.
To be specific, all the giants had a period of chaos. At that time, all the giants attacked other races as if they had gone mad. Even the giant races often had conflicts with each other. Moreover, the giants of the lower order actually dared to attack the giants of the upper order. This was simply something that had never happened before.
But it really happened. At that time, Giants could be said to be the public enemy of the continent. All other races were hostile to them. As long as they were found, they would attack them. This situation lasted for a long time, and the number of Giants on the continent decreased by about 40%.
Then, after that, the Giants stopped and returned to their original state. It was said that this was because the Giant God Annan canceled the order among the Giants. He announced that the Giants would be ranked by themselves through competition. In this way, those lower-ranked Giants actually wanted to be promoted, and the original Giants were also trying to preserve their status.
However, it was said that this action failed in the end. The Dragons didn't want to see their enemies become stronger.
After a day of rest, the army of the Northern Battlefront City began to move in the evening. The sentries arranged to monitor the Frost Giant camp would send messages every half an hour. Although Suhlen didn't go to the scene in person, he knew the situation of the Frost Giant camp very well.
"Sir, the Frost Giants still have no intention of leaving today. They seem to be using this place as a temporary camp." A scout reported to Suhlen, "Moreover, at noon, I saw more than 20 Ogres come here."
"It seems that these Frost Giants really migrated here. They plan to live here permanently!" Hearing the scout's words, Suhlen said with some surprise.
Frost Giants like cold areas. Although the Northern Wilderness is cold in winter, it is still hot in summer. These Frost Giants are definitely not used to it. But why would they violate their living habits and come here?
"Forget it, don't think so much. Since they dare to come here, they might as well stay. The wall of my castle still lacks a head like this as a trophy!"
Time passed by minute by minute, and soon night came. After a day of rest, the soldiers of the Northern Battlefront City were full of energy. They were all ready to do something big. Suhlen didn't hesitate. After a simple dinner, he led the army directly to the Frost Giant camp.
About three hours later, they arrived at the periphery of the camp. The camp had changed a lot. The houses in the camp were built taller. Although the Northern Barbarians were tall, about two meters tall, their houses were naturally not suitable for the Frost Giants, who were four meters tall and weighed more than one and a half tons.
Therefore, during the day, the Frost Giants let the captives cut down trees and then came back to build houses and camps.
When they were five kilometers away from the camp, Suhlen stopped the army and then asked Hathaway to summon a few Wizard's Eyes to investigate the camp.
After summoning a few Wizard's Eyes, they quickly hid in the darkness. The Wizard's Eyes soon flew over the camp. Hathaway snapped her fingers and tapped her finger lightly. Suddenly, there was a ripple in the air in front of her. The next second, a circular image with a diameter of twenty centimeters appeared.
After combining the Water Mirror with the Wizard's Eyes, the Water Mirror could project the image seen by the Wizard's Eyes on the crystal. It was like watching a movie, and the situation of the entire Frost Giant tribe could be clearly seen.
"Twenty-five ogres and twenty-two winter wolves!" After seeing the image of the Water Mirror, Suhlen quickly got a lot of information.
"Fortunately, we didn't attack directly. Otherwise, this sneak attack would definitely have been discovered." Suhlen frowned and looked at the group of winter wolves.
Frost Giants and winter wolves often cooperated. Creatures like winter wolves knew the Giant language and the common language, so they could communicate with the Frost Giants simply. These winter wolves had a good sense of smell, good hearing, and night vision. They were good helpers in hunting. Frost Giants often brought winter wolves to hunt.
If Suhlen had led the army to attack just now, he might have been discovered by the Frost Giants before he even got close to the camp. Then, the sneak attack would have turned into a direct attack. Many people thought that the Frost Giants would fight you head-on, but in fact, the Frost Giants were very cunning creatures.
After they hunted white dragons, if there were white dragon fledglings, they would not kill them directly. Instead, they would tame the white dragon fledglings and let the white dragon help them hunt. Of course, the Frost Giants preferred to use dragon beasts because the real white dragons had the inherited memory of the dragon. In the face of such a situation, they would pretend to be tamed until they grew into young dragons or adult dragons. Then, they would suddenly attack.
Later on, the Frost Giants also learned to be smart. They would kill the white dragon in advance before it became a young dragon.
Many people thought that the Frost Giants were very stupid and thought that they only knew how to fight head-on. In fact, they liked to ambush and often sneak attacks when the white dragon was asleep.
If they found that they were being attacked by humans, they would immediately counterattack. Of course, many times, they would set a trap for humans to fall into and then attack. As a melee profession, when facing the attacks of the Frost Giants, it was best to dodge as much as possible. Don't think about blocking the attacks of the Frost Giants. People who did that basically paid an extremely heavy price.
When the Frost Giants were fighting, once they found that things were not going well, they would immediately retreat and escape.
"Move the ballista over," Suhlen said.
Soon, some barbarian warriors moved the ballista that had been dismantled into parts. It was difficult to move the ballista, so under normal circumstances, it was dismantled when it was moved and assembled when it reached the place. After arriving at the periphery of the camp, Suhlen began to let the soldiers reassemble the ballista.
The arrows used by the ballista were three-meter-long spears, and the spearheads of the spears had been modified. There were blood grooves on both sides of the spearheads. As long as the arrows hit the enemy, even if it was not a vital point, it would take half of their life. If they were unlucky, they would even bleed to death.
In addition to these spears, there were also some spears that were linked with chains. These were all thrown spears. They were all used by the barbarian warriors. The throwing spears were short and small and carried a heavy chain ball. As long as they hit the target, they would restrict the target's movement. Even if it was as strong as the Frost Giants, if they were hit by two or three spears, they would basically lose their ability to move and could only be exhausted to death by others.
"All barbarian warriors, each carry three spears. When you attack, add the chain ball at the back," Suhlen said as he held the spears. "You don't need to kill in one hit, just hit the target."
