Augustus Under the Horseshoe

Chapter 570 : Frost Giant

Julian calendar four hundred and twenty-one years, the seventh month, the thirty-first day. (September 31, 421 AD)

Accompanied by the terrifying howling north wind, the biting frost once again fell on the earth. The nomads of the tribe carried the harvested hay, drove the horses, cattle and sheep, and quickly retreated to the south-usually, they can choose to retreat. The Caucasus, Gredinian, or the Roman provinces under the control of Painjes spend the winter.

And this year, all the nomads rushed to Norikum by appointment. The entire tribe’s foundry city forged weapons day and night, boats loaded with grain and soldiers crossed the Danube, and the slaves began to put the simple wooden Fortress, fortified into a solid stone wall.

Everything here heralds the imminent disaster and destruction: when the spring blossoms in the coming year, the tribe will definitely launch an attack on Gaul directly.

And in this short period of six months, the Visigoths were not idle. Theodoric dissipated the wealth plundered over the past few decades and recruited 13 settlements of frost giants in a row. Finally, he was offering that After topping the crown specially made for Ymir, the co-lord of the frost giants also joined the war with her extremely large kingdom.

A thousand frost giants slaughtered lambs, hunted wildly at any cost, and collected food on the road. Under Theodoric’s guidance, they slowly gathered at the beach.

At this moment, a huge frost giant, surrounded by hundreds of guards, came to the beach. She was so huge that other frost giants were not as high as her knees.

“Ymir.”

Theodoric I lowered his head in awe. He was only the king of a human kingdom, and in front of him, the terrifying giant with an incredible size was the unquestionable leader of all frost giants.

According to legend, she is the ancestor of all giants in the world, whether it is a frost giant, a hill giant, or a storm giant, her blood is flowing in her body.

In the silence of awe, the ancestor giant, who was comparable to the mountains and rivers, pulled out the horn from his waist.

Accompanied by the sound of deafening horns, the tranquil sea surface filled with ice floes boiled like boiling water, and island-sized blue whales emerged from the sea, responding to Ymir’s sound with the same sound of whales. call.

In this way, thousands of frost giants climbed onto the back of the island whales, using these behemoths as dragon boats for expeditions. One island whale can carry fifty frost giants, but two island whales work together to afford Ymir. The weight of terror.

In this way, the island whales stopped and walked for five days and five nights in the cold North Sea, and finally reached the mouth of the Rhine River and landed in the Dutch lowlands. Ymir once again blew his horn to let these islands. The large and small island whales returned to the deep sea, and under Theodoric’s leadership, they moved closer to the south along the Rhine, frightening the barbarian tribes along the way.

They have indeed seen giants, but they really haven’t seen thousands of frost giants gathering together, moving and hunting at the same time.

The food they brought was completely eaten when they marched at sea. Thousands of hungry frost giants swept the nearby forests and fields, razing villages and woodlands to the ground. From wild boars to mice as small as mice, they all ate everything, where more than a thousand giants have passed, even permanently changing the local terrain.

In this way, Theodoric I guided more than a thousand frost giants back to the emerging Visigothic kingdom, and after supplementing a wave of supplies, directly set foot on the land of the Western Roman Empire.

Contest Noquat Province·Octuron

Calbo Hall studied the eternal gun he earned from Pain Hess, and praised her craftsmanship and enchanting skills. Her rough hands, as if touching a lover, carefully rubbed the gorgeous decoration. Embossed golden gun body.

But at this moment, two short-bearded craftsmen hurriedly knocked on the door of the castle, interrupting the joyous time of casting generals.

“The casting general! The casting general! The big thing is not good! North! The enemy is coming!”

“Fart! Although this fortress is located on the border, it is built in the high mountains of the Alps. Most of the city is in the tunnels of the mountains and underground. Even the Roman Empire in its heyday. It did not cause us trouble, but Peaceful collection, where is the enemy?”

Carbon Harr scolded his men. However, before his words fell, the ground under his feet trembled slightly, and with the passage of time, the tremors became more frequent and intense.

The casting general looked solemn, grabbed the gun of eternity and ran outside, after passing the deep and dark spiral staircase, to the top of the castle.

I saw a giantess taller than the Alps, slowly moving to her side, beside him, thousands of frost giants in mammoth fur, climbing, straddling the insurmountable moats of mortals, roaring Rushed towards Octuron.

“Then what the **** is she! Hurry! Hurry up and sound the alarm!”

The startled eyes of the old dwarf almost popped out, and the dwarves who were in charge of defending hurriedly blew their horns, calling on the blacksmiths to come out to defend, and at the same time contacted Dove Whispering Court to pray for the help of the Roman Empire.

However, it was too late. I saw the great ancestor giant, picking up an object at hand, staring at the dwarf’s arrow rain, and came to the city wall. The scorpion crossbow, which was enough to shoot through the scales of the dragon, turned to the giant’s hardened skin There is no way, let her put the thing in her hand on the city wall-it is a six-meter-high frost giant warrior full of bones and heavy armor, accompanied by a sky-shaking battle cry, angry giant soldier , Swept through with a giant axe, and directly shot down four heavy armored dwarves from the city wall!

“The relics of the gods actually fell into the hands of the dwarves. What a blasphemy! Take back the inheritance of the gods!”
