Chapter 213: C206
Setting aside the bald man for the moment, Leon, like Wanda, turned his attention to Laufey, the King of the Frost Giants.
Based on the dark matter plane information retrieved by Sky Blade, Laufey possessed a unique artifact: the casket of Ancient Winter.
This relic, an inheritance of the Frost Giant's king, was an extraordinary object of immense power. The frost core within the casket held enough ice energy to instantly freeze an entire planet, and its reserves seemed endless. It bore a resemblance to the Infinity Stones, albeit as a simplified version.
Odin had once claimed it as a trophy, locking it away in his treasury. While Asgard's arrogance dismissed the casket as inferior to its own relics, the truth was that its power was specific to frost giants—though Odin himself could wield it if needed. Yet, it had languished in Asgard's vault, forgotten and unused.
But Leon had his eyes on this artifact.
Regardless of how he intended to utilize Sky Blade in the future, securing the casket was a priority. Like Wanda, Sergei, and the others, Leon believed that when something rare and powerful presented itself, it was worth every effort to obtain it.
Dark clouds blanketed the sky, and rain poured relentlessly, pooling into muddy, foul-smelling streams in the ruined town. Yet, no one present paid any attention to the miserable weather.
All eyes were on the Frost Giant army approaching from beyond the town, their march accompanied by a spreading tide of frost.
Bang!
