Chapter 332 - 197: Hit Him and Leave
Facing Meredith flying high in the sky, the frost giants below either roared in anger or pounded their strong chests, repeatedly hurling their bone axes fiercely!
"Whoosh~whoosh~"
A dozen sharp bone axes spun rapidly, flying into the sky.
Yet, even the bone axes thrown by the immensely powerful frost giants could not defy the laws of physics. Influenced by gravity, the axes began to slow rapidly after reaching a height of forty to fifty meters, their power naturally diminishing.
Meanwhile, Raine, who was invisible, carried Meredith, dodging these bone axes with ease like a butterfly flitting through flowers.
This momentarily gave Meredith a feeling of being back in the Underdark.
Because during a long period in the Underdark, Meredith used to patrol the skies riding night bats, but now, she was riding on the back of a human male.
’No, to be precise, being carried.’
’But this feeling is somewhat similar to handling a night bat!’
Fortunately, Raine wasn’t aware of Meredith’s thoughts at the moment, or he might have grumbled a bit—Am I a mount? What are you thinking!
Meanwhile, sprinting all the way with a long white vapor trail following him, Olaf, the "Shield of Neverwinter," had approached the hot spring.
Soon, the frost giants divided into two groups: four giants led by Captain Tollesk charged at Olaf, while one frost giant led a dozen ogres in a rush towards Meredith, who was gradually showing signs of descending from the sky.
"Meredith, you’ll lead them in circles, I’ll go over there!"
Raine said, his gaze shifting towards the two injured frost giants in the central area of the hot spring.
Although they could stand, they staggered when walking and were only accompanied by two ogres.
To Raine, they were undoubtedly the best targets.
If he could successfully kill them, he could gain two more frost giant symbols and further infuriate the rest of the frost giant team. After all, to the frost giants, Meredith and Olaf were on the same side.
And he, the "new face appearing for the first time," naturally was too!
Meredith glanced along Raine’s line of sight, immediately nodding with realization, "Hmm, no problem, don’t worry!"
Then, when they were only a few meters from the ground,
Raine gave a strong push, easily tossing Meredith. She did a beautiful 360-degree spin in the air, then bent her long legs slightly, landing steadily on the snow.
Meanwhile, before Raine’s Invisibility Spell wore off, he cast a high-level Invisibility Spell on himself and quickly moved stealthily towards the wounded frost giants.
On the other side.
Facing the oncoming frost giant captain and a few frost giants, Olaf, already filled with pent-up anger because of Raine, did not stop his steps and both sides quickly engaged in fierce combat.
At this moment.
If viewed from above, the entire battlefield resembled a long snake divided into the head, middle, and tail sections.
The head, where Olaf and the frost giant captain Tollesk led several frost giants in intense battle; the tail, where Meredith, using her agility, led a group of ogres and the frost giant Lemgar in circles, occasionally engaging briefly.
Only the middle section was quiet, with two injured frost giants and two ogres watching the battlefield ahead and behind intently, without engaging in battle.
At this time, snowflakes as big as goose feathers began to fall from the sky. In his invisible state, Raine looked up to see thick clouds overhead, heralding an approaching blizzard.
Of course, for both him and the frost giants, a blizzard was nothing significant.
But, if there is a blizzard as the backdrop...
A saying from his past life surfaced in Raine’s mind—
"A dark, stormy night for murder!"
A few seconds later.
A human figure suddenly appeared behind one of the injured frost giants. The figure leapt high, raising a silver warhammer, which descended like a meteor, shattering the silence!
With a crisp "crack!"
The frost giant’s back of the head was smashed in, creating a dent, and its five-meter-tall body staggered forward before collapsing to the ground without even uttering a scream!
The effectiveness of this strike was not solely because Raine’s classes level had increased to level 4, enhancing his strength, which was only a small part of it.
More so, it was because this frost giant was already heavily injured from a previous battle with Olaf, the "Shield of Neverwinter."
This advantage, compounded by Raine’s high-level Invisibility Spell, allowed him to launch a sneak attack, resulting in this lethal strike!
"Damn human!"
At this moment, the other injured frost giant saw its comrade die tragically and roared, charging at Raine, with the two ogres surrounding him at once.
Faced with their attack, Raine feared nothing and had no intention of dodging.
By now, his stamina had fully recovered due to his recent advancement.
So, his choice was—to unleash his full power!
"Vibration Wave!"
With muscles bulging, Raine swung his warhammer heavily towards the ground!
