Chapter 175: Kasa's Ambition

Storm High Slope, temporary camp of frost giants.

This was originally a lush forest, but the frost giants cut down all the trees, and the howling cold wind brought heavy snow.

A rough tent made of land dragon bones and fur was built on the snow, and the spoils of war from nearby were piled up next to it, including food, fur, armor, weapons, etc.

The frost giant priests in the tribe would pray to the gods and cast ancient spells to create frozen lands, which not only created a comfortable environment for the frost giants, but also blocked the invasion of foreign enemies.

The frost giants would use these frozen lands as bases to attack all nearby social communities and plunder.

Kasa stood on the top of the slope with a double-edged axe, looking down at Baya, who was covered in scars.

"Baya, where did all your tribesmen go?"

"Also, why didn't you bring back any spoils and return empty-handed?"

Baya lowered his head and gritted his teeth and said, "Chief, we have encountered a tough nut to crack. There is..."

He hesitated for a moment and finally chose to tell the truth.

"A full 26 warriors died bravely in the battle."

When Baya said this, his face was ferocious and he immediately added.

"But don't worry, I will avenge them and destroy that fortress. Fifty, as long as you give me another fifty warriors, I promise-"

Kasa frowned, looked at Baya angrily, and interrupted him rudely:

"Twenty-six tribesmen? You lost so many people for a mere fortress? You should know that sixty years ago, your father destroyed the entire city of Nitri and plundered the treasures accumulated by the city for hundreds of years, and only eleven tribesmen were killed or injured!"

Baya whispered in defense: "That is definitely not an ordinary fortress. There is a real dragon behind them."

Kasa interrupted him coldly again, not giving him the slightest chance to defend himself: "The most important quality of a mature captain is patience. You obviously can't do this. Give your position to-Tema."

"I don't want to see this reckless behavior appear on you again."

"Yes, Chief."

Baya wanted to defend himself, but seeing Kasa's eyes that could not be refused, he swallowed his breath.

Kasa winked, and Tema behind Baya stepped forward in surprise. The chief painted two scratches on his forehead with red paint - that was the mark of the leader of the frost giant army, used to distinguish them during war.

Kasa returned to the tent, where a huge cowhide map was spread out, covered with rough marks.

Several frost giant priests sat around, most of them were in their prime, while the elderly and disabled elder Nur chose to stay with a group of old and weak people in the Wahala Glacier.

"Wil, can you feel the exact location of the Everfrost Horn now?"

The young frost giant priest nodded slightly.

"Chief, we are not completely sure, but we can speculate based on the approximate range."

He pointed to the old map and marked an area in the southern part of the Storm Slope on the map with his cane.

"However, according to the map of the previous patriarch, there is only one human city in this area - North Wind Castle."

"Good, very good."

"Occupy this city, take back the Everfrost Horn, and the glory of our ancestors will be restored in our hands."

Hearing the priest's affirmative answer, Kasa's eyes suddenly lit up.

But he seemed to think of something, frowned slightly, and asked another question.

"According to your understanding, is there a giant dragon on this storm slope?"

The Everfrost tribe is blocked from the south by the tall Korka Mountains. Every time they go back and forth, they need to consume a lot of time and energy. Therefore, they know almost nothing about the recent situation in the south, and are limited to the information left by their ancestors.

The priest answered truthfully: "There is no such record."

"But patriarch, forgive me for being blunt, our information is already sixty years ago. For these weak mortals, sixty years is the reincarnation of several generations. Compared with before, the situation in the north may have changed dramatically."

"Is that so."

Kasa rubbed his chin and narrowed his eyes.

But soon, his eyes were full of ambition again: "No matter how those tiny humans change, they will eventually be destroyed by our great giants."

"And a dragon that was still missing sixty years ago and is at most a young dragon? It is also not worth mentioning. It will only make my record more brilliant and add another dragon-slaying feat."

"When we regain the Horn of Everfrost, I will turn the entire North into an ice-covered land and let the frost giants rule the territory that our ancestors once owned!"

"Under the power of Everfrost, all resistance is so vulnerable."

North Wind Castle, Council Hall.

Casius sat on the throne, browsing the latest intelligence presented by his subordinates.

"Have they all reached the Rock Fortress? That's really fast."

Delena replied seriously: "The Frost Giants' rapid marches are well-known in the North. They often form teams of dozens of giants, come with the cold wind, and quickly sweep. Their marching speed far exceeds any human army in the history of the North."

"Currently, Batto City and Sger Town have both encountered small-scale attacks by Frost Giants, but fortunately they did not cause much damage. The Rock Fortress encountered the main force of the Frost Giants, but it still held on."

"According to the information from the Red Scale Patrol, they seem to have given up on sweeping the Storm Peaks and are preparing to gather their forces and march south with all their strength. Their target is likely to be the Everfrost Horn.

"After research by the Great Tower of Wisdom, Lord Rump suspects that the rune power of this horn can resonate with the blood of the frost giants and provide an effect similar to positioning, but the level of this magical effect is too high, and he has no way to eliminate it for the time being."

Casius climbed up from the throne, shook his body, and slowly stretched his wings.

"No need to eliminate it. Their full-scale march south is exactly what I want. I don't like the feeling of putting out fires everywhere and losing the initiative."

"But... this farce should end here."

"Notify all troops in the kingdom to stop the frost giants north of Trier's mouthpiece. If they are allowed to run wild, I'm afraid they will disrupt normal production in the south."

"The era of the Giant Empire has long ended. These guys who are gnawing at the heritage of their ancestors should have rolled back to their graves long ago. "

Delena hesitated for a moment, and then added:

"Master, there is one more thing."

"The Principality of Bosk sent a special envoy to help the Kingdom of Burning Embers resist the frost disaster. You see..."

Kaxiu suddenly became interested.

"Oh, there is such a thing?"

"Please invite this 'warm-hearted' envoy in quickly. I want to see what the old lion is up to."

The red dragon's golden vertical pupils flashed with a hint of playfulness.
