Lord of the Frozen Winter: Starting with Daily Intelligence Reports

chapter 24 - Slaughter of the Frost Giants


Louis stood on a hidden rock, overlooking an open area in the valley below.Four Frost Giants were throwing boulders, then hitting them with massive ice-rock clubs, having a blast."Are they playing baseball?" Louis muttered, but he didn't relax in the slightest.These behemoths averaged 5.2 meters in height, their bodies covered in natural armor woven from ice crystals and rock fragments.Just looking at their bulging muscles was enough to conjure up images of terrifying brute strength.Their casually swung ice-rock clubs were six meters long, and when they struck the ground, they could even leave a cracked gully.Even more terrifying was the pale blue mist that permeated the Frost Giants' bodies—this was their Extreme Cold Domain.If an ordinary person got too close, their blood circulation would slow down, or they might even be frozen solid into an ice sculpture.Fortunately, there were only four of them; if there were forty, Louis would have to pack up the Red Tide Territory and run overnight.Nervous? Not really.He had already grasped the Frost Giants' weaknesses and set up traps in advance.Plus, this time he brought most of the Red Tide Territory's knights and hundreds of soldiers.Fifty-three knights against four Frost Giants—the advantage is mine."Is everyone ready?" Louis asked in a low voice."Yes, My Lord, everyone is in position," the commander replied."Very good." Louis nodded slightly, "Proceed as planned, and let these big fellows experience the methods of our Red Tide Territory."He slowly raised his right hand, fingers together: "Action!"The commander waved a large flag, and the knights ambushed in various places moved simultaneously."Woo—!"A signal arrow cut through the sky, its flame trailing a red trajectory, striking towards the Frost Giant's body.Disturbed by the sudden attack, the four Frost Giants, who were happily playing, paused for a moment, then let out deafening roars, their massive feet stomping the ground as they furiously walked towards the direction of the flames."Separate them!" Lambert shouted.The knights split into four groups, harassing the giants from different directions, constantly provoking them with their long spears.Each attack accurately struck the giants' most sensitive parts: knee joints, faces, finger gaps, armpits…The giants roared, sweeping with their ice-rock clubs, trying to crush these worm-like enemies.But the knights were prepared, quickly retreating, using the terrain and their speed to buy time, guiding the giants to their respective ambush areas.A few minutes later, the four giants were completely separated, entering different trap zones."Release!"The long-ambushed trap team suddenly threw out the pre-prepared weighted rope nets.The heavy ropes accurately entangled the giants' legs.The giants' footsteps faltered as they struggled to tear free from the restraints.Knights hidden on the flanks quickly charged in, their sharp spear tips or longswords thrusting directly into the vulnerable joints behind the giants' knees!Pfft!The long spear pierced its icy flesh; the ice armor here was the weakest.Each stab made the giant let out an earth-shattering roar, stumbling backward in pain."Retreat, reposition!"The warriors did not linger in battle, quickly dispersing in different directions, giving the giant no chance to counterattack.The giant let out a painful hiss, kneeling on one knee, its struggling movements suddenly becoming sluggish.Soldiers ambushed on the other side suddenly threw torches, and ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ flames licked at the giant's sturdy ice armor.Soon, their extreme cold aura began to waver, and the surface of the ice armor gradually cracked under the scorching heat.Swish swish swish!Archers seized the opportunity to fire flaming arrows, which cut through the night, heading straight for the giant's face.Several arrows accurately hit the giant's eyes and cheeks, the flames scorching its flesh."Roar—!!"The giant painfully covered its face, struggling violently."Knights, prepare! Target, heart and throat!""Kill!!!"The knights activated their battle aura, and red battle aura burned on their longswords and long spears.They spurred their horses, accelerating like sharp red blades, fiercely stabbing into the giants' hearts and throats!Blood splattered, and the first giant let out its final shriek, its body crashing to the ground.Of course, not all other groups were as smooth.A deafening roar suddenly came from one of the trap areas!"Roar—!!"That was an exceptionally violent Frost Giant; its massive body had broken free from the rope net.A mere stomp of its thick leg caused the trap-laden ground to crack, sending debris flying."Damn it! This trap can't hold it!"The leading knight's face changed; just as he was about to command his team to re-encircle, the giant had already completely erupted in rage!It suddenly spread its arms, roared skyward, and the icy aura around its body surged dramatically!A violent frost storm suddenly swept in all directions!Boom—!The storm, mixed with countless sharp ice blades, instantly covered the entire area.The cold wind tore at the ground, and the knights were caught off guard and thrown back by the strong wind."Ah!!!"Two Apprentice Knights were directly swept into the storm, their armor instantly covered in thick ice, their bodies frozen stiff.Then, a gust of wind swept them away, violently flinging them far away to crash heavily against the rock wall, losing their combat ability.Another Formal Knight had not even reacted before being struck by the giant's swinging club.He flew dozens of meters like a broken kite, crashing heavily to the ground, spitting out blood.The scene immediately descended into chaos!But just as the Frost Giant was about to swing its club again to sweep, a red battle aura suddenly cut through the blizzard, striking directly at the giant's wrist!Pfft!The scorching sword energy tore a long, narrow wound on the giant's cold iron muscles, and dark blue blood gushed out, splattering onto the snow, quickly solidifying into ice crystals."Cut its leg!" Lambert roared, raising his greatsword high, imbued with intense battle aura, pointing directly at the giant's knee!Two Elite Knights followed closely behind, the three forming a triangular assault formation, charging towards the giant."Hah—!"Lambert's greatsword slashed down fiercely, targeting precisely the joint behind the giant's knee!Crack!This sword deeply embedded itself into the ice armor, cutting into the tendon, causing the giant's massive body to tremble violently, nearly falling to its knees.Another Elite Knight seized the opportunity to leap, his longsword burning with fire battle aura, fiercely stabbing into the giant's ribs!The last knight forcefully hacked at the giant's ankle, attempting to completely disrupt its balance!With three swords striking simultaneously, the intense pain drove the giant to extreme fury; it let out a sky-rending roar, attempting to swing its club and counterattack again!"Stop it!"Lambert roared, stomping hard on the ground, using the force to leap again.His greatsword swung back horizontally, the blade accurately striking the giant's wrist joint!Crack—!The sound of bone cracking was clearly audible.The giant's grip on the club suddenly loosened, and the massive ice-rock club lost control, slipping from between its fingers, crashing heavily onto the ground and sending ice shards flying everywhere!"Now!!"The knights behind him all raised their long spears high, and with earth-shattering roars, all their weapons simultaneously pierced the giant's vital points.Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!Icy blood splattered, staining the snow, and this berserk giant could no longer stand, its massive body crashing to the ground, completely losing its life.
