Chapter 326 - 194: Brutality (Part 3)
This made Meredith, standing by the side, glance over in slight surprise.
Just now, she had sensed a fluctuation in Raine’s aura, as if he suddenly became invigorated and full of spirit.
After calming his inner excitement, Raine once again focused his gaze on the three Ogre icons and that Hill Giant icon.
His sixteen-slot bag was now half full, so something needed to be done with these four.
’Hmm, why not try merging them?’
’It seems that Ogres have Giant blood, although it’s said to be rare...’
After thinking about it, Raine decided to give merging a try. If it didn’t work, he could just discard them, but what if it succeeded?
[Unable to enhance three same-tier bloodlines, merge them?]
"Yes!"
Without hesitation, Raine immediately chose ’yes’.
In the next instant.
The three Ogre icons suddenly twisted and disappeared, while the Hill Giant started undergoing noticeable changes.
The most significant change was — it shrunk!
From the previously large figure, it became a size in between an Ogre and a Giant.
The belly grew larger, the wooden hammer grew spikes, and aside from shorts, it also wore a leather shoulder armor, which made both its weapons and armor look significantly more refined.
’This is...’ Raine’s eyes widened slightly, curiously examining the icon.
The name of the new icon also flashed in his mind — ’Hill Ogre Warlord’.
Additionally, there was a small tagline below: "A rare crossbreed of Hill Giant and Ogre, an oddity among Ogres."
Interesting.
Raine thought to himself.
"Raine, look to the left!" At this time, Meredith’s voice broke his train of thought.
Raine immediately looked up in the direction Meredith was gazing, seeing several white pillars of vapor rapidly approaching the hot spring area from the north of the Lankote Snowfield.
"The Frost Giants have arrived first." Raine could clearly see these white vapor pillars were the commotion caused by the enormous Frost Giants running swiftly.
At that moment, Meredith gave Raine another glance, even more amazed.
Because the current situation was almost exactly the same as Raine’s previous prophecy — nine Frost Giants had come this time.
Apart from that, over a dozen Ogres and more than twenty Winter Wolves were also charging this way with fierce momentum.
"Raine, if they don’t see us, would they search the area?" Meredith asked, her fine brows slightly knitted.
"Don’t worry, we’re currently upwind. Even if they search the area thoroughly, I’ll cast a high-level Invisibility Spell to hide us."
"You know the high-level Invisibility Spell?" Meredith was already somewhat speechless.
It’s known that the high-level Invisibility Spell is a Fourth Level Spell, which is typically mastered only by Level 7 or higher mages.
And for someone like her in a Special Classes, it’s usually not possible until Level 9 or above.
But Raine also seemed to be in a Special Classes, yet his Classes Level was only 3!
"Raine, are you sure you’re not a blessed one? Or perhaps you’re the offspring of a demigod or something?" Meredith blinked her beautiful eyes, asking.
"Haha~"
Raine laughed awkwardly, his mind in a slight turmoil —
’Having too many spells isn’t always a good thing. It seems it’s better to find some sort of identity to conceal myself later.’
’When I return to the association, I’ll see if there are any data on blessed ones, maybe adopt the name of a long-forgotten ancient deity’s blessed one?’
Another half-minute passed.
The Frost Giant squad entered the geothermal hot spring area within their sight.
The leading Frost Giant had two bone blade waraxes hanging from either side of his waist, and his height was approximately five and a half meters, a head taller than ordinary Frost Giants.
He crouched beside the dead Frost Giant Burg, momentarily silent in contemplation, but such silent repression and fury were often the most terrifying!
After another two minutes, the Frost Giant captain solemnly picked up the corpse and growled:
"Everyone, search the surroundings! Let the Winter Wolves sniff and find where the enemy is!"
Soon, both the Winter Wolves and Ogres dispersed and began their search.
At that moment.
Out of the corner of his eye, Raine suddenly noticed something in the far right direction, near the Ice Lake — a trail of white vapor extending for dozens of meters was swiftly approaching.
