Fierce Battle

Kasa was rampaging through the field when Dolo actually came down on the field himself and stood in front of him.

As a servant with dragon blood flowing through its veins, this Dragon Vein Hobgoblin stands four meters tall, its muscular body covered in scales, making it a giant in the eyes of ordinary soldiers.

But in front of the real, strong-and-mighty Frost Giant Kasa, the Hobgoblin's head was not even as high as the Frost Giant's waist. In stark contrast, Dolo looked more like a short dwarf.

Facing a formidable foe, Dolo showed no fear and shouted sharply:

"Foolish giant, I will kill you!"

He leaped up suddenly, raised the Bloodfire Battle Axe above his head, and slashed straight down at the Frost Giant's head.

"When!"

The crisp sound of metal clashing together rang out.

The Bloodfire Battle Axe and the Roar of Winter clashed, sparking blinding flashes.

Dolo had used all his strength, putting all his power into this attack, but Kasa simply held his battle axe horizontally with one arm, easily blocking the attack with the axe blade.

"Such a weak and feeble attack—how dare you fight me!"

"When--"

With a sudden burst of strength, Kasa's thick arms were bulging with veins, and he sent Dolo than ten meters away.

Dolo rolled several times on the ground, feeling his arms go numb from the powerful force, and his whole body feeling weak.

"What terrifying power."

He used his battle axe for support and gritted his teeth as he got up from the ground.

However, Dolo heard the howling of the wind and the roar of giants above his head.

"Die! You weak and pathetic thing!"

Kasa wouldn't give the enemy any chance to come back. With another powerful leaping slash, Roar of Winter, carrying unstoppable momentum and accompanied by a howling hurricane, slashed straight at Dolo's head.

—If this attack hits, Dolo's sturdy body covered in scales will be cleaved in two as if it were made of paper.

Dolo stared up at the axe blade drawing ever closer, his pupils dilating suddenly. He only managed to utter two words:

"Help me!"

Just as the battle axe was about to strike, an invisible force field wall blocked Dolo's path.

That's the [Wall of Force].

The battle axe, carrying immense power, struck the Wall of Force with a deafening roar, even causing ripples in the surrounding space.

Not far away, Lang Pu calmly raised his staff with his left hand and clutched the "Bennett's Wisdom" that shimmered with magical light in his right hand.

"Oh? Spells?"

"Haha, those weaklings who rely on external magic are not even worthy of being my enemies!"

Kasa grinned maliciously.

He Winter's Roar, easily vaulting over the Wall of Force and arriving directly behind Dolo.

"Dolo, hold off this Frost Giant!"

Without hesitation, Lang Pu activated dozens of Magic Equipment around his body. His body shone with magical light, and he released carefully prepared spells that flowed into the Dragon Vein Hobgoblin.

Enlarge Person, Haste Spell, Shield Spell, Protection from Energy Damage, Bear's Endurance, Bull's Strength, Cat's Grace.

In just a few breaths, the Dragon Vein Hobgoblin's body swelled to nearly eight meters tall, almost the same size as the Frost Giant in front of him.

His body was enveloped in several layers of magical shields, and the power of magic enveloped his entire body, giving his various attributes an unprecedented boost.

Dolo, panting heavily, felt the power surging through his body and roared excitedly:

"Damn Lang Pu, why didn't you use this tactic sooner?"

"Stop him?"

"I feel like I can kill him right now!"

Dolo roared to the sky and charged toward Kasa, swinging his Bloodfire Battle Axe, which had become like a hand axe, and slammed it down on the Frost Giant's massive head.

"When--"

The sound of metal clashing rang out once more.

The battle axe was blocked by the Roar of Winter again, but this time Kasa needed to use both arms to deal with it, and was even slightly at a disadvantage in the stalemate.

Taking advantage of the stalemate between the two sides, who were unable to move easily, Lang Pu unleashed several blazing fireballs at the Frost Giant.

[Greater Fireball]

After years of modifications by Lang Pu, the Rising Ring Fireball has now reached the fifth ring level. Not only does it concentrate fire with far greater power than ordinary spells, but it also incorporates incantation abilities, allowing it to track and locate enemies within a certain range.

However, Kasa simply tilted his head slightly and easily dodged the precise strike of the fireball.

But his dodges also caused his grip to loosen slightly.

Dolo seized the opportunity and slashed forward with his Bloodfire Battle Axe, which came flying straight at the Frost Giant's head.

And Lang Pu's magic followed.

[Slow Spell]

Spacetime around the Frost Giant was distorted, and its movements became incredibly slow.

Kasa quickly dodged backward, but under the influence of the spell, he was still unable to completely dodge and was cut by the axe blade that was about to leave an afterimage.

A narrow, long cut appeared on the right side of his cheek, from which flowed cold, dark blue blood.

"I haven't bled in a long time."

"Although it's magic, it's... kind of interesting."

Kasa wiped the blood from his cheek haphazardly, a ferocious smile spreading across his rugged face, his pupils filled with a fanatical thirst for battle.

I'm going to kill you all!

"For the Embers of the Burned Kingdom!"

"Kill the enemy!"

"Everfrost endures!"

While Dolo, Lang Pu, and the Frost Giant Chieftain were locked in a stalemate, their forces also engaged in a fierce battle.

The goblins unleashed a barrage of bullets and shells Hobgoblin the Frost Giant, Frost Giant in turn raised their Bone Shield and charged forward under the intense fire. Once these massive creatures broke into the fray, they could easily rout dozens of soldiers.

Several Frost Giant fell on their way to the charge, their bodies riddled with bullet holes and fragments.

The Ogre heavy infantry stood at the forefront of the Embers of the Burned Kingdom's lines. Although they were much shorter than their northern relatives, their bodies were much fatter and more sturdier, and they managed to withstand several waves of Frost Giant Cavalry charges.

The Wasteland Striding Dragon and the Tundra Striding Dragon collided with a deafening roar. These colossal creatures finally met their equal. However, the Wasteland Striding Dragon, influenced by the dragon vein, was often larger and could defeat its northern relatives.

Meanwhile, aerial units such as Chimera and Wyvern repeatedly swooped down, turning the battlefield into a boiling sea of fire, using raging flames to halt the advance of the Frost Giant.

However, they were not immune to being hit by boulders thrown by Frost Giant or pulled down from the sky by leaping giants, and once they reached the ground, they were basically doomed.

There was even a female Chimera pinned to the ground by Baya. This Frost Giant Warrior, imitating his brother, broke three of the Chimera's spines with his bare hands, drawing cheers from the other Frost Giant Warrior.

"Baya!"

"Our warriors!"

"You're just a little Bone Breaker!"

Soon, the battlefield was filled with the smell of Gunsmoke and blood. The corpses of Hobgoblin, Ogre, Wyvern, and even Frost Giant littered the wasteland. This fierce and evenly matched battle turned this long-suffering wilderness into a slaughterhouse once again.
