The strong wind howled and howled, and the flying snow rolled into the sky, almost submerging the far north world below in a vast white ocean.
Under the curtain of heavy snow that blocks out the sky and sun, there is an immovable tribe that covers a huge area and stands silently in the wind and snow.
Extremely cold tribe.
As a super-large tribe of frost giants, the Extreme Cold Tribe is not so much a tribe as a fortress, a city, a giant city ruled by frost giants, the Extreme Cold City.
It is many times larger than the frost giant tribe that Garon destroyed, and it is still expanding in many places.
The difference is like a village and a town.
The arctic city is surrounded by tall and magnificent walls.
It is all made of giant gray-white stones. The four walls are nearly thirty meters high at the lowest point. There are majestic and ferocious giant crossbows on the walls, and there are frost giants patrolling around.
The buildings inside are all extremely huge, rising one after another, with a sense of grandeur.
On a very spacious street, a frost giant wearing simple leather armor was walking around.
However, the larger number are the large humanoid creatures that serve as the servants of the frost giants. They move boulders, sweat in the cold weather, and continue to build and expand the extremely cold city amidst the clanging sounds of hammering.
The status of the frost giants here is like that of nobles. They will be looked at with awe wherever they go, and the labor is done by servants.
Among the giant buildings rising one after another, you can see a huge building like a palace and fortress in the center.
It is very conspicuous, completely gray and white, with a rough and rough sense of primitiveness and power. It is also the most majestic existence among the giant buildings.
This is where the leader of the frost giant tribe lives.
In the fortress hall, on a giant throne made of cold iron, a tall giant with a height of eighteen meters and a face as sharp as a knife was sitting there quietly, exuding a cold, dark, and desperate aura.
It was so dark that no trace of blue rough skin could be seen. When the arm moved slightly, clusters of strong muscles bulged like steel bars.
This is also a dark frost giant, and its strength has already broken away from the category of dark guard.
As a legendary creature, in the racial records of the frost giant, it has a new name and title, Dark Lord, which is a powerful existence that is the next step up from the Dark Guard.
The far north ice plain was originally a piece of scattered sand, and the frost giant tribes fighting each other were able to unite and listen to orders and dispatches in a unified manner, precisely because of the existence of the dark leader.
When the Dark Lord appears, he becomes the king among the frost giants.
The dark commander named Barton tilted his head slightly at this time, supported it with his palms, closed his eyes, and was resting his mind.
It was motionless, its upper body naked, and only its waist was surrounded by a layer of cold white skirt-like armor covered with scales, with a faint dragon-like aura.
This body is like a black iron tower. Even if it is still, it can still exude a breathtaking pressure all the time.
Suddenly, Barton frowned and slowly opened his eyes.
Its eyes are very special. The whites of the eyes are pitch black, while the pupils are ice blue, giving people a strange feeling, as if they are emotionless and cold.
After opening his eyes, the Dark Lord looked into the distance, his eyes narrowed, and he felt a little uneasy.
As a legendary creature, it has a certain intuitive perception of crises, and this uneasy feeling will not arise inexplicably.
"What kind of trouble could I get into?"
Barton's expression remained unchanged, thinking in his mind.
It didn't take long for it to become the leader of darkness, only a few months.
After becoming the Dark Lord, Barton had a huge ambition in his heart to bring the entire Arctic Icefield under the rule of giants, and then use the Arctic Icefield as the foundation to rebuild the Giant Empire step by step and restore the glory of the Giants.
The first step in this plan is to unite all the frost giants.
Its execution is strong.
Almost the day after it obtained the legendary power, it began to integrate the frost giant tribes distributed in the far north ice field as the dark leader. In the process, it encountered some resistance, but as the dark leader, the legendary
The strength can be solved relatively easily.
The original Extreme Cold Tribe was slowly built into the Extreme Cold City, and the frost giant tribes with a radius of thousands of miles moved to the vicinity of the Extreme Cold City.
With the expansion of the Arctic City, it was gradually incorporated into it.
Everything in the extremely cold city is prosperous, and development is booming and prosperous.
According to Barton's idea, when the Arctic City expands to accommodate all the frost giants and servants, and when its foundation is extremely solid, it will start a war of conquest.
First rule all the creatures in the far north ice field, and then build an empire step by step, so that all the biological races in Noah's continent can once again appreciate the glory of the giants.
Especially, those damn dragons!
Barton stroked his cheek.
On its right face, there are several scars that look like claw marks, covering half of its face. You can vaguely see the terrifying appearance of the rolled flesh at that time, but it has now completely healed.
This scar was left by Balton fighting a white dragon when he was out alone when he was an adult.
That was the most thrilling battle in its first half of life. Half of its feet stepped into the abyss of death. It was also in that battle that when it was on the verge of death, it awakened the power of darkness, became a dark guard, and fought back to kill the man.
A white dragon.
Then, Balton continued to grow with the idea of killing all the dragons in his heart.
The power of darkness and frost it mastered became more and more proficient, and eventually it became a legend and became the leader of darkness.
"dragon?"
Barton's eyes were cold, but after thinking about it, he still shook his head and rejected the idea.
In the far north ice field, there should be no dragons that would make it feel dangerous.
"Did those wolf cubs cause this?"
"With Uzan following us, they won't be able to ride over the waves."
Balton thought of a small frost giant tribe that was destroyed by winter wolves some time ago.
After learning the news, it could actually take action personally and destroy all the winter wolves with thunderous means. However, as the giant city lord and the leader of darkness, it could not do everything personally.
Before the war begins, the giants under his command need a chance to exercise.
A large winter wolf pack is a suitable target.
In fact, Balton still had the idea of conquering the pack of winter wolves.
Winter wolves and frost giants often reach a cooperative relationship, but there are currently no winter wolves in the extremely cold city. A group of winter wolves that can destroy the frost giant tribe are also outstanding among all winter wolf clans, so
, Balton thought a little.
As for the Winter Wolf's idea of luring a small group of Frost Giants and defeating them one by one, he understood clearly and directly sent a Dark Guard in disguise to follow them.
"No, by this time, Uzan should have already dealt with the winter wolf."
"But it hasn't come back yet, and it hasn't delivered any news."
Barton's eyes suddenly became sharp.
Immediately, a crystal containing evil aura appeared in its hand.
The black fingers exerted slight force, injecting a trace of magic power into it. The crystal suddenly shook, and clouds of black mist erupted, rolling endlessly in front of Barton.
"Uzan!"
Barton called in a deep voice.
The black mist trembled violently several times.
After a few seconds, something seemed to hear Barton's call at the other end. The black mist rippled rapidly, as if being fiddled with by an invisible hand, and turned into a mirror-like outline in an instant.
.
The ripples eventually converged, revealing a scene of thick clouds thousands of meters high.
In addition, a pair of platinum-gold dragon eyes, with a hint of inquiry and curiosity, came into Barton's eyes, causing his face to sink, and a strong murderous intent burst out of his eyes.
The majestic dragon horns that wind back, and the layers of deep facial armor...all reveal the identity of the other party.
"dragon!"
Barton squeezed out the words and syllables of Giant language from between his teeth, his voice was heavy and powerful, and his eyes were fixed on the silver dragon in the black mist mirror.

The time came a few minutes ago.
On the endless arctic ice sheet, as Gallon and others gradually penetrated deeper, the cold wind became more and more severe, and the snow falling from the sky also became heavier and heavier, with palm-sized snowflakes covering the world.
However, the violent wind and snow were helpless to the creatures flying and galloping in it.
Silver dragons, crystal dragons, red dragons, high-ranking spellcasters... The violent wind and snow are like gentle breeze and drizzle to them, and cannot even touch their bodies.
The real dragon flaps its wide wings high in the sky and rides on the strong wind and air currents.
On the ground, a dense pack of wolves, with their fur floating and their limbs intertwined, radiating the light of magic, moved forward at full speed in the wind and snow, closely following behind under the shadow of the dragon wings.
The high-ranking spellcasters cast many auxiliary spells for the wolves to increase their speed, and the real dragons slowed down some of their flight speed, allowing them to keep up.
The target of the real dragon and the wolf pack is very clear, it is the extremely cold city.
High in the sky, Galen looked downcast, looking down at the snow-covered Arctic ice fields and howling cold winds, while constructing a three-dimensional map of the ice fields in his mind.
As the areas he explored increased, the map of the ice sheet in his mind became more and more complete.
Noah's Continent is not that big, it is just a small world in the main material plane.
After going south and learning more detailed information about the continent from some books, Gallon discovered that Noah's continent was only roughly one-third the size of the Earth, and maybe even less than one-third.
In a world of this size, it is indeed difficult to create too many powerful legendary creatures.
Just like the entire human country, the number of legendary existences on the surface today can be counted on one hand.
The same is true for other races, the number of legendary creatures is limited.
In the past, in Garon's eyes, the Far North Icefield was so vast that it was almost infinite, but now it seems that it is just a limited map. If he is determined to explore the entire Far North Icefield, at his current speed, he will not spend too much time and energy.
.
"Coming."
Garen's eyes moved slightly and he looked straight ahead.
The long-distance vision penetrated the wind and snow, and saw the vague outline of a huge city standing in the wind and snow.
Such a towering city wall would basically only be built by large creatures.
"There are still scattered tribes scattered around this frost giant city."
Garen turned his eyes and saw the shadows of many frost giant tribes wherever he looked.
At the same time, Nico Nina's voice sounded from the side and behind.
"Hmph, these dirty and ugly giants must have bad intentions when they unite."
"This time I have to teach them a lesson and let them know how powerful real dragons are."
The crystal dragon waved its wings, and the brilliant luster of its scales was quite obvious in the wind and snow. Niconina just followed Garen. Because she was not flying very fast, she was only slightly behind Garen by a neck.
He never tired of asking questions about Gallon.
Garen did not speak, but nodded slightly.
Nico Nina talks a lot. Garen already discovered this when he first saw the crystal dragon. Even if Garen doesn't reply, she can keep talking. If he starts talking to her,
Then the situation is even worse.
After a while, when the outline of the frost giant city became more and more obvious in the wind and snow, Garen suddenly felt a strange movement.
The root lies in the dimensional space he uses to store items.
Without slowing down his flying speed, Garen recited a spell silently, then stretched out his dragon claw and grabbed it to the side.
The dragon's claw seemed to be submerged in the lake, splashing ripples in the air. After it was retracted, a crystal mixed with wisps of black mist appeared in the dragon's claw.
"The things on the dark frost giant..."
Garen held the crystal.
This crystal was pulled out from the ashes of the corpses of dark frost giants that were burned to ashes when the winter wolves were cleaning up the battlefield in the canyon. It was burnt black, but it was not damaged.
The crystal kept shaking at this time, as if it was vibrating and calling.
There was a glimmer in Crichens's eyes. He glanced at the crumbling crystal and said quickly: "Although the production process is a bit special, it is just a communication crystal. It is not dangerous and can be used by injecting magic power."
Garen nodded lightly.
He felt no danger from this crystal, and Luna also gave him a similar crystal. Although it was not the same, it was very similar.
Immediately, the magic power was mobilized and entered the communication crystal.
Elemental auras emerged at the same time, layers of black mist intertwined and rolled, emerged from the crystal, and finally turned into a mirror-like outline, showing the pictures and sounds on the other side.
After the communication crystal was activated, a face as black as the bottom of a pot appeared in Garen's field of vision.
Looking past this black face, you can see the rough and tall wall behind, with rough and barbaric style murals, recording scenes of giants hunting and fighting.
"dragon!"
The black face twisted slightly, and then spoke the giant language of hatred and anger.
There was another dark guard, looking much stronger than the previous one. He might be the real leader of these frost giants... Garen narrowed his eyes slightly.
"What did you do to my subordinates?"
The dark frost giant's face was gloomy, as if it had climbed up into a dark cloud.
What surprised Garen was that what this guy said was in dragon language.
Garen smiled, glanced at the Giant City, which was less than five kilometers away, and then said calmly: "The original owner of this crystal? It has now turned into ashes."
The dark frost giant was stunned for a moment, and the next moment a strong murderous intent burst out from his eyes.
In the frost giant clan, any dark guard or dark frost giant has very rare combat power. It is an outstanding existence blessed by the god of frost giants. The frost giants in the extreme northern ice field, including the strongest one,
, there are only three in total.
All dark guards have a certain chance of being promoted to legend.
Barton is now the leader with the highest status and has the absolute right to speak, but he will not stifle the growth of the other two dark guards in order to stabilize his position. He has absolute confidence in himself.
If the other Dark Guards become legends, the power of the giant will grow again, and the possibility of regaining the glory of the giant will be greater.
But now apart from it, there is only one left.
Immediately afterwards, the dark frost giant said slowly, word by word, with a murderous low voice: "Don't be complacent, even if I search the far north ice field, I will find you, pull off your scales inch by inch, and let you live.
It would be better to die."
"Remember my name, Barton, this name will become your nightmare."
Garen blinked, continued to fly closer, and looked at the clear outline of the Giant City.
At this distance, the unpleasant smell of the frost giant had already entered his nostrils.
Similarly, the silhouette and breath of the giant dragon in the air entered the perception of the frost giants. The frost giant soldiers patrolling and stationed on the tall city wall felt something was wrong and smelled the smell of danger and disgust.
At the same time, Kristians and Fred had already hovered their bodies.
"Sir, let us clear some obstacles for you first."
Garen nodded and said calmly: "Let me see your abilities."
After receiving the response, the two high-ranking spellcasters lowered their eyes and looked at the Giant City.
Their bodies were wrapped in elemental light, their magic power was running at high speed, and they were chanting spells.
The high-level spell being constructed and cast gathered a large amount of elemental energy, and the reaction of the magic power was extremely fierce. The light in the sky quickly became dazzling, and the brilliance of the spell overwhelmed the wind and snow in the sky.
"Hey, what is that? There are dragons and humans in the sky."
A frost giant raised his head and looked at the sky, his expression suddenly changed.
"There are four dragons in total! They are all super large, and there are also those wolves!"
"Damn it, those winter wolves turned out to be descendants of the dragon!"
"Oops, there are violent fluctuations in magic power, these guys are going to attack the extremely cold city."
"Block them, and quickly send someone to report to the leader!"
...........
The giant's voice was loud, sounding like muffled thunder.
Barton heard the vaguely familiar giant language from the communication crystal and the palace at the same time, and couldn't help but be stunned.
After coming back to its senses, it realized that the other party had already come to the door.
The threat just now seemed to be just a joke.
The silver dragon's calm expression was like a silent mockery.
A ferocious look appeared on the evil and cold face, the armrests of the cold iron throne instantly deformed under the subconscious force of the palms, and the communication crystal exploded at the same time.
"How brave!"
The huge black body suddenly stood up, strode forward, and left the tall and magnificent palace with a rumbling sound.
