Chapter 977: Chapter 80 I Shouldn’t Be Under the Bed_2
Luo En sneered and then solemnly looked down at Yemengarde in his arms, saying,
"What do you say? Do you have the guts to pull off a heist with me?"
"Meow!"
Provoked by this, Yemengarde let out an indignant meow, clearly determined under Luo En’s instigation to seek revenge on his devious mother.
It must be said, sharing experiences and having a common enemy is indeed an effective strategy for quickly creating a united front.
And since deciding to switch sides, Yemengarde was no longer holding back. A spirited cat cry came from its mouth, and a pair of bird wings unfolded from its back, lifting its body into the air and flying towards the distant mountains.
Luo En smiled with satisfaction and leapt to follow.
He had traveled from Mist Country to Giant Country, going to great lengths to dig up clues and strategize, even going so far as to pummel two consecutive Frost Giant Kings himself. Of course, his purpose couldn’t have been simply to find Thor’s hammer.
His real objective, under the guise of the original myth where Thunder God’s Hammer was stolen, was to come to the Land of Chaos and seize the opportunity to trace The Three Fates.
When they parted ways in Dwarf Country, Scadi had mentioned that Angelboda, also known as the disguised Goddess of the Future Scouty, had been staying in her territory recently.
And the region where this Winter Goddess resided was right in the Land of Chaos.
Similarly, during the chaos in Etheregar City, he also obtained clues about Urd, the Goddess of the Past, from Frost Giant King Laofei.
Urd, the eldest of the Norn Three Goddesses, went to the Land of Chaos after their wager, seemingly in search of her two sisters.
Clearly, "Miss Belle," who disappeared in Dwarf Country, now the Goddess of the Present Belldandy, is likely to be here as well.
With the Norn Three Goddesses, who control Fate, gathered here, he naturally wanted to stay a few more days in this Land of Chaos to uncover the truth.
~~
Several days later, in the northern realm of the Land of Chaos.
A pure white snowfield surrounded by mountains, vast and serene.
In the center of the snowfield, a majestic ice castle rose from the ground. It stood with a proud and solemn posture amidst the bitter cold winds. The castle was built of countless ice and snow, each icy wall engraved with dense Lun Runes, whose spirit light spilled out an inviolable sanctity and majesty.
The towers soared into the clouds, their spires as though piercing the heavens, challenging the limits of the frigid land. On the castle walls, icicles sharp as swords, arranged in a scattered order, twinkled with a chilling light under the sun, imposing and awe-inspiring to onlookers. The castle’s gates were firmly closed, heavy ice doors adorned with ancient totems. Hundreds of towering giants armed with weapons patrolled the walls and gates, deterring any outsiders from approaching.
However, such defenses were only sufficient to deter mid to low-level invaders.
Facing real masters, these overt defense forces were destined to be mere decorations.
For instance, at this moment, an orange cat with bird-like wings took advantage of the changing of the giant guard shift to quietly slip past the defenses and jump inside the castle. Another agile humanoid figure followed the cat’s lead, effortlessly completing the infiltration.
Stepping inside the castle, there was a fantastical space where light and shadows intertwine. Ice pillars were distributed haphazardly, with different breeds of Magic Beasts frozen within.
There were snow eagles with wingspans of tens of meters, reindeer with six hooves, sturdy Frost Wolves as large as calves, and even Dragonkin symbolizing strength and power. When sunlight shone through the carved windows of the castle and illuminated these pillars, the frozen Magic Beasts seemed to awaken with vitality, reenacting their former glory as they roamed and leapt across the ice fields.
Scadi the woman really does have a unique passion for hunting.
Luo En shook his head and muttered to himself but suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of being watched emanating from the shadows.
It’s these exhibits!
Noticing the abnormal fluctuation of Magic Factors around the ice pillars, Luo En immediately realized the truth and decisively followed Yemengarde out of the area and into a house.
After a moment, the sensation of being spied upon faded, and Luo En slightly relaxed.
He hadn’t expected that some of the exhibits frozen in ice were actually alive, serving as secret sentinels within the castle.
It’s uncertain whether the Winter Goddess who lives here is overly cautious or just lacks a sense of Safety.
Luo En shook his head again and started to inspect the room Yemengarde led him into.
The room was filled with the faint fragrance of pine and lavender, instantly relaxing anyone stepping into it.
Unlike the overall cold tone of the castle, the walls of the room were constructed of uncarved logs, retaining the most natural texture and color of the wood, almost as if one could hear whispers from the forest breeze. In one corner of the room, a small altar made of stones stood quietly, with several bunches of flowers and herbs gathered from deep within the forest, and deer antlers symbolizing strength—an offering to the spirits of nature.
The furniture was simple yet refined. A large bed crafted from birch wood, covered with a soft woolen blanket embroidered with Lun Runes symbolizing warmth and tranquility. A small, quaint round table with two woven chairs sat quietly in front of the carved windows, ready for contemplation and rest.
In a corner, there was a wooden tub for bathing. If one were to lie in it, they could enjoy the immersion in warm water while gazing through the window at the distant snow-covered mountains and occasional eagles and hawks, taking in the magnificent scenery of Giant Country.
