As the ice erodes, the protective magic that Frigga herself had set up is being gradually dismantled by Laufey.
In a very short time, the magic circle on the gate had completely failed.
Immediately afterwards, an unknown frost giant walked in from outside the door.
Frigga, wielding a sharp sword, ambushed and killed the frost giant.
However, behind this frost giant stood an even colder and more powerful familiar figure.
When Frigga saw that figure, her heart sank.
Because she knew who that figure belonged to—it was Laufey, the King of the Frost Giants!
Frigga was originally capable of handling the elite warriors of the Frost Giants, but she never expected Loki to be so helpful, even inviting the Frost Giant king himself.
How did you end up here?!
Frigga, sword in hand, stood in front of Laufey.
This means that no one can harm Odin before she falls!
"Bang!"
Looking at Odin who had fallen into a deep sleep, Laufey had no interest in paying attention to Frigga.
However, because of his agreement with Loki, he only slapped Frigga away and did not harm her life.
After Frigga collapsed, Laufey went to Odin's bedside.
Then, he reached out and pried open Odin's eyelids.
"It is said that even if your soul leaves your body, you can still hear and even see."
I hope that's true, because then you'll know that it was I, Laufey, who killed you.
Laufey was visibly agitated, his voice trembling.
Extremely cold power surged from his hands.
This extreme cold power instantly condensed into a sharp frost dagger, which Laufey held in his palm.
"Die, Odin!"
"Lan"
Laufey's expression turned ferocious as he plunged the dagger into his hand.
Just then, Laufey saw a furtive figure behind him through the reflection of the dagger.
The figure seemed to have raised a weapon, intending to ambush him.
"Loki!"
"boom!
"
"Hit!"
"
Frigga's tense voice, the sound of an energy explosion, Loki's excited voice. (Lan)
Three voices rang out at the same time.
However, as the chill dissipated and the frost melted, it was discovered that Laufey, who had been ambushed, was unharmed.
It turns out that at the crucial moment, Laufey used the power of extreme cold to condense a shield.
The attack of the Eternal Spear did indeed hit Laufey.
However, after being reduced by the layers of damage from the ice shield, Loki's sneak attack no longer had much power.
If the one who wields the Spear of Eternity is not Loki, but Odin.
Needless to say, Laufey is finished; even if he doesn't die, he'll be severely injured.
But if it were someone as weak as Loki, even with the strongest artifact, how much of its power could he unleash?
Basically, it's still the power of the artifact itself.
But this power was not enough to injure Laufey!
Frost Giants are still giants, and Laufey naturally possesses the thick skin and tough flesh typical of giants.
"Loki, it really is you!"
Laufey turned around and saw Loki holding the Spear of Eternity.
"With me here, you can't touch my father."
Furthermore, I must remind you of one more thing: you will die at the hands of Odin's son!
Loki's answer greatly surprised Frigga.
Sure enough, I hadn't misjudged Loki. This kid was rebellious, sensitive, and daring.
But in reality, he's still a good kid.
Frigga originally thought that Loki would join forces with Laufey, his biological father, to kill Odin, his adoptive father, but now this has happened.
Loki was determined to uphold justice and kill his biological father in front of his adoptive father, Odin, to prove his loyalty and legitimacy.
This choice brought Frigga both great relief and heartache.
Loki, that kid, has really suffered too much.
At this moment, Loki still believed that he, wielding the Spear of Eternity, could defeat and eliminate Laufey.
After all, the sneak attack just now did indeed penetrate Laufey's ice defenses and strike Laufey's giant body.
Now, as long as we use stealth to launch a sneak attack, we will surely achieve an effective strike.
Laufey held a dagger and looked at Loki in front of him.
After a moment of silence, he spoke directly: "It seems you have made your choice."
"Since that's the case, I'll deal with you too!" —Lan
The dagger in Laufey's hand instantly transformed into a large, icy blade.
Then, he slashed directly at Loki in front of him.
The biting cold froze everything along the way.
Loki slammed his scepter into the ground, using his golden divine power to break through the encroaching ice.
Then, he took out the Ice Box again and released extreme cold energy towards Laufey.
No! Loki!
"
Seeing Loki's actions, Frigga immediately screamed in alarm.
However, her voice was not as fast as Loki's movements.
Laufey's face showed a look of surprised joy.
The Frost Giants' most treasured heirloom, the very source of their power, is actually in the hands of the rebellious Loki.
Great, it came to me without any effort!
Laufey opened his arms to embrace the extreme cold power of the Ice Box.
As the frost descended, Laufey's body was covered in a thick layer of ice.
Seeing his ambush succeed, Loki immediately prepared to retrieve the Casket of Ice and then use the Spear of Eternity to shatter the ice block Laufey had become.
But then, an unexpected event occurred.
Despite being encased in ice, Laufey moved with surprising ease and grabbed Loki's wrist.
"My child, you haven't forgotten, have you?"
Ice has no use for our race.
On the contrary, it will bring us even greater power. Laufey's voice startled Loki.
However, Laufey's hand prevented Loki from breaking free.
At this moment, Loki's arm, due to the extreme cold, had turned the azure blue of a frost giant.
Loki's frost giant body made him immune to the cold.
However, Laufey's actions and words chilled Loki to the bone, leaving him feeling icy cold inside.
"My source of power has finally returned!" Laufey grabbed the Box of Ice and stuffed it into his chest.
In an instant, a heavy snowfall began to fall throughout Asgard.
The thick ice spread outwards from Laufey's feet in all directions.
Soon, ice covered the core area of Asgard, and even the sleeping Odin and the panicked Loki were completely sealed by the ice.
In the movie Thor, Laufey fights Odin and blinds Odin in one eye.
And it caused permanent damage, which may have been due to the sneak attack.
However, Laufey, who possesses the Box of Ice, truly deserves to be called a powerful being of the Heavenly Father.
In some ways, Laufey is very similar to Surtur.
One is the king of frost giants, and the other is the king of fire giants.
A Casket of Ice was taken away, and an Eternal Flame was taken away.
Without the Ice Box, Laufey's strength was greatly weakened.
Without the Eternal Flame, Surtur's power was greatly diminished.
Laufey, who possesses the Casket of Ice, can blind Odin.
Surtur, who possesses the eternal flame, can destroy Asgard.
These two kings of giants are practically identical templates.
Of course, Laufey is far inferior to Surtur.
Laufey was able to be considered a Celestial-level being only because of the Ice Casket, a treasured heirloom and source of power for the Frost Giants, and it had little to do with Laufey himself.
But the Eternal Flame was Surtur's own.
The difference is like this: one can reach the level of a Celestial Father by borrowing a clan's treasure; the other can reach the level of a Celestial Father through their own strength.
Surtur becomes weak without the Eternal Flame because the Eternal Flame is his energy core.
But the Box of Ice is the source of power for the entire Frost Giant race.
The two are not comparable.
To put it another way, Laufey, who possesses the Box of Ice, is equivalent to Hela standing in Asgard.
They all rely on external objects and forces to reach the true level of the Heavenly Father.
Within the thick ice, Odin's eyelids twitched, as if he wanted to open his eyes.
However, as a flame spread, Odin regained his composure.
"Phoenix Judgment!"
A fiery phoenix melted away the ice and buildings along its path, crashing into Laufey, who was laughing heartily to the sky.
"boom!
"
Flames exploded, the cold air melted away, and Laufey's figure was hidden by the white mist filling the sky.
Extreme cold and extreme heat, two opposing forces, erupted suddenly in the celestial palace.
The power of the Ice Box protected Laufey in time; the absolute zero cold blocked the sudden attack of the Phoenix Flame.
The melting white mist transformed into ice crystals, and the phoenix descending from the sky took human form.
Zhang Bairen extinguished the flames and stood in front of Laufey.
"Loufi, give me back my treasure." Zhang Bairen cut to the chase, demanding the Ice Box directly.
