Chereads / WOLFMAN DETECTIVE: BENEATH THE VEIL / Chapter 45 - Death of the Giant

Chapter 45 - Death of the Giant

Hearing the little Lolita's shout, everyone alertly raised their ears to listen to what was going on around them, but they didn't hear anything. Even the cold night wind on the snowfield stopped.

 

"Where is the sound? The little villain isn't playing tricks on us again, is he?" Catherine walked to Rogge, glanced at Lilith in Tully's arms and said softly.

 

"No, there is indeed something approaching..." Rogge raised his hand to signal Murphy and Catherine to stay quiet. The two looked at his solemn look and looked at each other in confusion, not understanding what he heard.

 

"Come here!" Rogge waved to Tully and Lilith who were sitting in the snow not far away. Tully picked up Lilith and stood up from the ground and walked towards Rogge. After taking a few steps, the ground suddenly shook.

 

"What is that?" Tully, who came to Rogge's side, asked in surprise.

 

"I'm afraid we are not friends. We'd better find a place to hide first!" Rogge said while looking around the river bank. There was a flat snowfield nearby, and there was no place to hide.

 

He looked down at the snow under his feet, and then he had an idea and said to the four people beside him: "Come on, help me!"

 

A moment later, a five or six meter tall figure appeared on the snowy field in the night. He was wearing golden armor, exposing his thick limbs like stone pillars, and running towards the river with his two big bare feet. Behind him, a group of An equally strong giant is struggling to catch up.

 

The running giant stopped at the river and glanced across both sides of the glacier. Except for a few raised snowdrifts not far away, there was nothing around.

 

He stepped on the ice and prepared to cross the river, but the ice could not bear his weight and instantly shattered over a large area. The giant, who lost his center of gravity, almost fell into the river and hurriedly retreated to the shore.

 

At this moment, the pursuers who were chasing after them rushed to the river and surrounded the golden-armored giant.

 

"You have no way to escape, Ted, today is the day you die!" The silver-armored giant pointed at the golden-armored giant with the giant ax in his hand, and the surrounding giants rushed forward with their long axes and hammers.

 

The golden-armored giant had no way to retreat, so he had to face the enemy with his bare hands. He knocked down a giant soldier, took the giant hammer from his hand, smashed the head of the giant who came from behind, and then grabbed a giant who came from the side. The soldier threw him into the glacier behind.

 

"Ted, you can't defeat the Heir of the Titans!"

 

Seeing that the soldiers could not hold Ted down, the leader of the silver armor shouted angrily, and struck Ted in the head with the heavy axe. Ted hurriedly raised the hammer to hold the edge of the axe, but was unable to push the opponent's ax away. .

 

Taking advantage of the opportunity for the two to wrestle, two giant soldiers rushed up from both sides and stabbed Ted's legs with their spears. Ted fell to the ground with a scream, and his heavy body caused the white snow on the ground to fly all over the sky. .

 

"I took your life on the orders of Thorin, King of the Titans. What else can you say, coward?"

 

The silver-armored leader stepped forward and stepped on Ted's chest. He stared at the lamb waiting to be slaughtered at his feet with a grin and asked. The surrounding giant soldiers swarmed up and put their sharp blades on Ted's body.

 

"You traitors, you actually followed Thorin, a treacherous son, to murder the heir to the Titan throne. My brother Tyrell will definitely cut you into pieces!" The golden-armored giant Ted said through gritted teeth.

 

"Tyrell? That little guy has too much time to take care of himself. You stupid guy, you are not worthy of taking over the throne of the Titan King. Go to hell!"

 

The silver-armored leader shouted loudly, and the battle ax in his hand fell off his head. Ted's blood splashed on the snow on the river bank, melting the white snow into blood.

 

"Let's go. It's time to go back and report to Lord Thorin. We also have to deal with Tyrael and his idiots!" The silver-armored leader viciously kicked Ted's body, turned around and walked away with the giant soldiers. go.

 

When the heavy footsteps of the giants gradually faded away, Rogge emerged from the snow in the snowdrift not far from Ted's body. He carefully looked around, and after making sure it was safe, he opened the snowdrift and dug out from inside. Get out.

 

"It's okay, guys, come out!"

 

Hearing Rogge's call, Murphy, Tully and Catherine all emerged from the snow. When they saw the huge corpse in front of them and the river of blood, they couldn't help but be shocked.

 

"It seems that we have encountered the battle for the birth of the new Titan King." Rogge said, looking at Ted's body from a distance.

 

He pointed at Ted's body and turned back to his companions: "This guy should be Ted, the eldest son of the King of Titans. The murderer was a subordinate of the second prince Thorin. I heard that Thorin was an ambitious militant who also participated in The war to conquer the cursed land."

 

"Judging from what they just said, Thorin has already taken the initiative," Murphy said, taking over Rogge's words: "The heir Ted is dead, and the only one left is Thorin's third brother Tyrell."

 

"Yes, now we have two goals. If it is true that the Titans stole the sacred artifact, it must be related to the battle for the throne. What we need to find out now is whether the sacred artifact is in the hands of Thorin or Terry. In your hands."

 

Rogge took out a map from his body as he spoke, pointed to a place in the northeast of the island and said: "This is Hurricane Cliff. Tyrell's castle is located here. We might as well go here first to find out the news."

 

He looked back at Murphy and said: "Judging from the tone of Thorin's men just now, Tyrell must not be as powerful as Thorin. If there is someone who wants to use the holy weapon to win, he must be more likely than Thorin! "

 

"This is a good opportunity, let's get involved in the Titan clan's family affairs!" Rogge's words aroused the adventurous element in Murphy's blood, and he told everyone with anticipation.

 

The five people immediately set off and left the river, heading north along the route the giants had left. After traveling on the snowfield for a while, the road ahead was separated by a mountain ridge. The giants' footprints extended to the northwest, while the footprints of the giants extended to the northeast. The valley leads to a forest.

 

"Those guys must be returning to Thunder Castle to resurrect their lives. We don't care about them and walk through the forest from here to Hurricane Cliff." Rogge pointed to the valley on the right and led everyone into the pine forest covered with rime.

 

After walking in the silent pine forest for an unknown amount of time, the sky gradually began to turn white, but Rogge suddenly stopped and looked down at the jungle on the right and stopped.

 

"What's wrong with you?" Tully stopped next to Roger and asked curiously.

 

"There seems to be something over there." Rogge stared at the pine forest on the right and said, "I heard the sound of water coming from there, and there was a large amount of fog in the woods. It seemed like there was something there."

 

Tully looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough she saw a white mist filling the forest. The little owl Lilith also came out of the hood behind Rogge and said, "I heard it too, there is something coming." Dip the water!"

 

"Is it some kind of monster?" Catherine and Murphy also walked forward together, looking at the white mist in the forest.

 

Rogge shook his head gently and said, "I don't know, but we might as well go over and have a look."

 

"It's better not to get into trouble! What if there are any monsters?" Tully reached out and grabbed Rogge's arm, but Rogge broke away with a smile and said, "You may have forgotten what I do. I just deal with monsters." A living guy!"

 

He strode towards the misty woods. Tully glanced back at Murphy and Catherine uneasily. The adventurer shook his head helplessly and said, "We'd better follow. Maybe things are not as bad as we thought!"

 

The three of them followed Rogge into the thick white mist. An inexplicable warmth quickly surrounded them. The snow on the ground became thinner and thinner, and seemed to melt into this melting warmth.

 

When they passed through the white mist-filled jungle, a wide lake appeared in front of them. White heat rose from the lake. The heat emitted made the land beside the lake not see a trace of white snow. Instead, it was covered with small green trees. Grass.

 

"It turns out to be a hot spring." Murphy said to Tully and Catherine with a smile: "It seems we can take a rest here. After walking all night, everyone is very tired!"

 

Before he finished speaking, there was a sound of water in the lake, and a half-naked woman emerged from the water. Her long black hair was thrown back in a beautiful arc, and she looked at the five people on the shore like a hibiscus emerging from the water. , showing a charming smile.
