Chapter 772 Source of Fear—Anger the Soul Eater

"Whoosh~"

Seeing Li Lie's heroic appearance, A-Cheng, as his good friend, naturally applauded and whistled in support. However, this supportive behavior broke the solemn atmosphere before them.

"Lin Lie, your swordsmanship has improved again." Even Ji Shuangshuang, rarely speaking irrelevant words on the battlefield, praised Lin Lie.

Li Lie first ran back to the two of them, and then replied, "Thanks to Mr. Yang Le's guidance. He can always see the weakness in my swordsmanship and then give me methods for further improvement."

In front of a Kryptonian's eyesight and super-brain, Yang Le could deduce the full scope of almost all fighting techniques with just a move or two. Yang Le could even find their weaknesses, just like Wang Yuyan from American comics.

Just like many comic protagonists, Lin Lie also carried something related to family affection, such as a missing dad. In addition, the Three Emperors Warriors also had an enemy they had to face, Chiyou. Lin Lie was naturally like a sponge in water, frantically absorbing all the battle knowledge he could learn.

Facing a good child like Lin Lie who was willing to learn, Yang Le was naturally willing to teach. Although not comparable to Kryptonians, Lin Lie did have some talent. He understood things quickly, which satisfied Yang Le's desire to teach without making him feel too much trouble.

If it were someone with less talent, even if they were willing to learn, Yang Le would not be willing to teach. That would waste too much of his time.

"Speaking of Mr. Yang Le," A-Cheng said as if suddenly thinking of something. "It seems like we haven't seen him recently. It would be great if we could call him over to help."

"I contacted Mr. Yang Le just now. He said that these hammer-like things have appeared worldwide. These things can confuse people's soul. It's best not to get too close to them." Lin Lie relayed the intelligence he had just learned from Yang Le.

"He said he's going to deal with an even more troublesome guy now. He heard that the guy who was being controlled is a mutant. Once he goes berserk, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"Even Mr. Yang Le finds him a troublesome opponent?" A-Cheng couldn't help but click his tongue. "We should just honestly hide here and be security guards, protecting safety in our area."

Ji Shuangshuang had just finished reporting the damage situation to her superior at this time. Hearing A-Cheng's spiritless words, she was speechless. Thinking of teaching him a lesson or two, she felt an unusual chill.

She hurriedly looked around and found that the grassland underfoot had unknowingly become covered with a frost coat. Even the blood that the agents had shed showed some signs of coagulation.

"Battle preparation." Ji Shuangshuang didn't know where the unusualness came from, but she knew it was definitely not a normal phenomenon, so she hurriedly notified the two of them.

A-Cheng also felt this chill. He drew out the Shen Nong Whip and swung it around the three of them, drawing a circle on the ground.

The circle was composed of energy that looked like flame. Although it looked like flame in appearance, there was actually a certain difference. However, it could indeed be used for warmth and to resist the cold.

Sure enough, the three who had originally felt cold felt much warmer. In the next second after the flame circle appeared, everywhere outside the circle was covered with a thick layer of frost.

"No need to think to know," A-Cheng silently increased the output of heat. "This thing must be related to those Frost Giants."

As if to confirm A-Cheng's words, a series of heavy footsteps came from the other side of the woods, followed by a vague and tall figure.

"Crack!" The giant leading the way casually pushed down a sky-reaching ancient tree blocking the road. This was like lifting a veil, and all the giants revealed their figures at once.

These giants were all much taller than those Lin Lie had killed before. If the previous giants were only about two or three meters tall, now the body size of these giants were all over five meters.

Lin Lie didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that the body size of these giants was still increasing upwards at a slight speed. It should just be because of perspective, right?

"The temperature around here has dropped, and the body size of the Frost Giants will also increase accordingly." Ji Shuangshuang's words at this time shattered Lin Lie's fantasy.

"It is said that in the hometown of these giants, Jotunheim, their body size can even be as tall as small mountains. Earth, due to temperature reasons, caused their body size to shrink. The current giants can only be considered the size of children of their race."

"Thank you for your explanation. So it seems that my feeling that they are growing is not an illusion." A-Cheng somewhat regretted wearing his arm-revealing battle suit. The flame circle they were standing in now felt like two worlds. Inside the circle was full of lifeline, outside the circle, winter had arrived, and light snow had even begun to fall in the sky.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!" Heavy sounds came from behind the giants. The giants consciously made way, and a figure completely different from the other Frost Giants walked out from the back.

This giant was the tallest one. His body was completely composed of a translucent ice-blue substance that looked like ice. His body had edges and corners and was covered in many spikes, looking unusually ferocious. He was also holding a hammer in his hand.

In the giant's chest, there was also a bright red casket, which was currently in a half-open state. With her eyesight trained from childhood, Ji Shuangshuang could tell at a glance that this unusual weather must be the reason for that casket.

"Midgard warrior," Laufey threw the hammer on the ground. "Did you kill my vanguard?"

"So what if we did?" Lin Lie stood with his sword raised.

"Very good," Laufey scanned the wounds of the surrounding giants, then nodded. "Very good skills. All my warriors were almost killed with a single sword. You did not inflict pain on them. You are a noble warrior."

Laufey's sudden praise made Lin Lie stunned. He had never thought that he could receive praise from an enemy.

"But unfortunately," Laufey shook his head again. "If it were before, I guess I would be interested in competing with a warrior like you. But now I am living under someone else's roof, and I have to do some things against my will."

"My name is Laufey. I am the King of Giants from Jotunheim, and also Angrir the Soul Eater who will bring fear to you."

After being chosen by the Sky Hammer, these Sky Hammer Venerables would all have a new name, such as Loki's Skadi, and his Laufey's Soul Eater. Everyone has one, but he is the only one with the brain to say it now.

"The name sounds very exaggerated, but I don't know how his strength is." A-Cheng curled his lips, seemingly disdainful of Laufey's boastful manner, but his clenched fist had already revealed his true mentality.
