The wind is cold and the wind is changing, and there are buildings of ghost fire.
The giants walked along the mountain road towards the palace above the mountain peak, and the surrounding environment became darker. There was no longer any light in the sky. Although the stone walls were dug out and torches were placed on the winding mountain road, the light that the torches could provide was still limited. Especially when the huge giants crowded the mountain road, the whole mountain seemed to be lit up with flames, but the flames could only illuminate a small area around it.
Lied lay on the giant's back, feeling that the outside air became thicker as if it had frozen. Countless groups of giants gathered here, and they didn't disperse until they got around the main hall, going to different places to perform their duties. Some giants returned to the hall with their prey, and the first thing they did was to present the prey in their hands; some giants were responsible for digging stone walls, expanding the palace, and other work, and they had already started construction; some giants were outside the palace. Act as a sentinel, stand there and wait for the battle.
Lide had analyzed it from the very beginning. The giant he was following probably served as an inspector or something, and traveled around instead of the high giant to see if there were any unusual events in the giant's territory.
Since he is an inspector, the first thing he does when he returns from the inspection is to report the results to his superior.
In other words, following this giant is the most likely to see the higher giant directly.
As Lide expected, when the other giants were still active outside the palace, this giant had followed about a hundred of its colleagues and walked directly into the palace. Just entering the palace is a hall, or a hall for the giants. From Lide's perspective, it is a completely new world. The scale is far beyond any building he has seen in the human territory, and it is extremely spacious.
The giants with the task of patrolling walked to the left, and there was a long corridor leading to nowhere.
Lid was on guard against the dangers around him, when he suddenly noticed a lowly giant with a slightly different appearance appearing from the other side of the corridor, walking towards him. This giant family only had nine great accomplishments, and Lide didn't care at first, but when the distance between them shortened, Lide's heart beat wildly for no reason.
The moment they passed by, Lid suddenly realized that the lowly giant was not alone, and there was an invisible guy standing on its shoulder. When the guy passed by, all the low giants stood still, lowered their heads, and let it and the mount under it go first.
In a short moment, Li De already had the answer in his heart.
There is only one possibility to meet these conditions—
High giant!
Before seeing it, Lied had imagined countless possible forms of the high giant. For example, someone who is tens of thousands of feet tall and can shake the world with one punch, or someone who is as immovable as a mountain and only uses a pair of long-lasting pupils to overlook the world. But at the moment when he really saw the high giant, Lide had an unexpected and reasonable feeling.
The nine sons of the Dragon King, the Heavenly King of the Demon Clan, and the royal family of the Elf Clan, Lide has seen at least three core bloodlines of the Six Clans. They have one thing in common, that is, they are all dominated by human characteristics.
The tall giant that appeared in front of Lid now was no exception.
Its body is much smaller than that of ordinary giants, only about three meters in height. Perhaps because he is not used to being looked down upon by others, he specially chose a tall and mighty low-level giant as his mount. Standing on the shoulders of a 20-meter-tall giant like this, other low-level giants can still only look up at it .
Compared with those primitive low giants, it looks more like a human man with an unusually well-developed figure. Gold ornaments are worn on the neck, wrists and ankles, and there are a large number of strange patterns on the bronze skin. Except for the white cloth around its waist, most of its muscles are exposed, but these muscles are a little more beautiful than other low-level giants.
The only thing that Lide couldn't understand was that it seemed unable to fully control its own power. A trace of black mist emerged from the black pattern, and the whole person was like a ticking time bomb. Even the space around it was covered by the frenzied power. Stirring is not stable.
Because it was the first tall giant Lid saw, Lid decided to name it "Number 1".
Giant No. 1 had no other high giants around to communicate with it, and it didn't have a habit of talking to itself, so Lid didn't think he could get any news from it.
So the moment they passed by, Lide had already lost interest in it, and just wanted to be an ordinary handsome guy passing by.
But at the next moment when they passed by, Lide suddenly heard it command the mount under him in an old saying:
"Stop."
The low-level giants under their feet stopped, and No. 1 slowly turned sideways. A pair of black and red eyes looked at the group of giants that Lide was in. His eyes were obviously suspicious, and he obviously noticed something. Something that shouldn't be there.
Lide didn't dare to set his eyes on it, because Lide knew very well that the other party had the ability to detect his gaze. So Lid opened his eyes, the position of the pupils has not changed from the beginning, he will not look at it deliberately, and will not deliberately avoid it, just like the inorganic matter, he observes everything in front of him equally, including all living things and non-human beings. biological parts.
Even so, the high giant seemed to be aware of something, and its eyes were constantly patrolling among all the low giants.
Lied frowned slightly.
He seemed to know how the other party noticed him. From the very beginning, my aura was restrained very well, and the rhythm of my heartbeat and meridian circulation was also kept in sync with that of the hidden low-level giant, so it was basically impossible for people in the distance to see any clues.
But when he saw Giant No. 1, Lied's body instinctively sensed the danger, and his heart beat faster than usual, which made him a little out of sync with the hidden lower giant.
This out-of-sync is extremely subtle, but still noticeable.
Lid squinted his eyes, forcibly changed the movement of his breath, blocked a small amount of breath in his chest, and squeezed his heart violently.
The beating heart abruptly slowed down, but the price was that the muscles on the heart suddenly took on heavy pressure, as if it was about to burst. The pain was transmitted to all parts of his body along the nerves, and his head seemed to be shutting down. But Lide still didn't say a word, even the breathing on his body was not disturbed, and his meridians were still functioning normally, only the cold sweat wet the mane in his hiding place.
At the same time, after the high giant glanced around, it also looked at the low giant where Lid was hiding.
Under the sharp eyes, everything seems to be invisible.
