Poren Kingdom, the capital city.

Not long after Lake and Polo set off.

The giants' war had just ended, and everything was in ruins, awaiting restoration.

In the royal palace, amidst the ruins of the palace that had collapsed within the array, many laborers were painstakingly moving rubble, sorting items into categories, and awaiting inspection by the soldiers.

The Poren Royal Palace had been the place holding the most secrets of the Poren Kingdom for decades.

Among them, many of the stone walls that had been placed aside were engraved with lightless array patterns, the runes and murals on these patterns carrying a mysterious and profound meaning.

Several ink artisans wearing hooded robes carefully examined the runes.

Then, they recorded the runes one by one in the notebooks in their hands.

Although countless soldiers and civilians had died in this giants' war, the number of giants who had died was also significant, giving the Poren Kingdom a relatively safe period for development.

As dusk fell, most of the laborers went to rest in the tents in the corner of the royal palace.

Except for...

A tall and sturdy man, a strange glint flashed in his eyes.

Taking advantage of the Poren soldiers' careless chatter, he walked to a pile of rubble and debris, picked up a sharp axe he had hidden in the corner, and moved in the shadows.

His target was the passage to the underground of the royal palace that the laborers had just cleared during the day!

At night, a warning whistle cut through the darkness of the Poren Royal Palace.

In a corner of the royal palace, two Poren soldiers gritted their teeth and stepped forward, drawing their long swords to block the way.

But at this moment, the sturdy man who had just emerged from the ruins below had bloodshot eyes, neither dodging nor evading!

Two long swords flashing with array patterns struck the sturdy man's body, but it was as if they had struck a copper wall or iron barrier, only scratching out two insignificant nicks!

The next moment, the sturdy man roared.

The sharp axe in his hand, driven by his inhuman strength, brought a stern wind, and with a single spin, it brutally cut the two fully armed Poren soldiers nearly in half!

"Can the body of a mortal also block me?"

The sturdy man laughed wildly, a bright red rune gleaming with a misty blood light between his eyebrows.

On the other side, in the sound of alarm horns, there was another burst of shouts and the sound of armor, and another team of Poren guards rushed forward with roars!

"Oh, you've come just in time... Now, I am also a giant's chosen."

His wolf-like gaze instantly turned to the Poren guards rushing forward, or rather—to the Poren officer leading them and giving orders.

Judging from the military emblem on the officer's body, his status was obviously not low.

The next moment, the sturdy man jumped up from the ground, actually leaping more than ten meters, landing directly among the Poren guards!

In front of that Poren officer!

The next moment, the axe tightly gripped in his hand stirred up a **** whirlwind, while the other hand took the military emblem from the chest of the beheaded Poren officer.

The weapons of the other Poren soldiers struck his body, but could only leave some slight flesh wounds—

This could not harm his muscles and bones at all!

"Goodbye, everyone, wait patiently—for the awakening of the Giant King!"

While saying this, the sturdy man, already covered in blood, vigorously waved his axe again, forcing back the soldiers in front of him, and with a few more leaps, he crossed the ruins and high walls of the royal palace, disappearing into the darkness!

Inside the royal palace, only the anxious communication and messages of the Poren soldiers remained.

"The thief has escaped, his identity has not yet been determined—he killed the general!"

"What did he steal? Has it been confirmed?"

"That guy went to the national treasury that had just been cleared of debris, the gold and silver treasures have not decreased, only a failed seal has shown signs of being invaded!"

"What was stored there?"

"Still confirming, Her Majesty the Queen is consulting ancient books, the only thing that can be confirmed now is... that it is related to the late Emperor and the Giant King!"

"How could you let that guy escape? Is he very skilled in martial arts?"

"No, not at all, he possesses unusual strength, an unknown rune was observed between his eyebrows, invulnerable to weapons, and incredibly strong, just like a giant..."

"Another giant... is it? Could it be another giant's chosen?!"

"Son of a bitch!"

"..."

In a shadow in the Poren capital, a black shadow stopped from the darkness, panting weakly.

The sturdy man holding the axe was covered in blood.

He did not look as relaxed as he seemed, although the Poren soldiers' sword blades on his body were like the bites of fragile mosquitoes, even so, the blood loss from the large area of small wounds made his face a little pale.

"Ha... ha... Severn, I thought you could succeed alone, and even crowned yourself as the Giant Commander.

Said you were the smartest person?"

A trace of mockery and arrogance appeared on the sturdy man's face, muttering to himself, his trembling hand untying a cloth bag from his waist,

"Not only did you not even enter the treasury door, but your gem is also gone.

It was a waste of my time to pass on the city defense layout to you, and painstakingly... force your so-called old father to death to solve your weakness...

Heh—

Waste!"

As the sturdy man spoke, he untied the cloth bag.

In the bag, a blue gemstone emitted a faint magic light in the darkness.

"But it doesn't matter, I also got a gemstone, now, I am also a giant's chosen!"

He laughed again, stuffing the military emblem he had snatched from the Poren officer and the blue gemstone into the cloth bag, carefully tying it up, and re-fastening it to his waist.

In the darkness, he raised his head, looking at the center of the Poren Square.

At that brand new statue of the "Savior Angel" girl, cloaked and holding the Star Killer Sword, he snorted coldly.

"It doesn't matter, when I welcome back the Giant King above the clouds, I, as a giant's chosen, will also have power above all mortals!"

While saying this, the sturdy man raised his hand and slammed it hard against the wall on the side!

"Boom!"

The stone wall shattered and flew, creating an astonishing indentation.

The sturdy man looked at his "achievement" and nodded in satisfaction, then carried the blood-stained axe on his back and walked towards the dark city wall not far away.

In the darkness, he took out a detailed map from his arms.

This map was not only of the Poren Kingdom, but also extended to another kingdom far away.

On the map, above that kingdom, was marked a snake-shaped pattern, like a vine growing upright.

And under the pattern, the end of the sturdy man's journey was marked with a few words:

[Biwei Kingdom]

"Get the magic bean, plant it, then follow the vine, climb to the clouds, and go to... the King's Garden, the King's Castle."

The sturdy man muttered to himself, lost in thought.

The rune between his eyebrows flickered slightly, gradually disappearing beneath his skin.

He seemed to hear something, a trace of fanaticism and ambition flashed in his eyes:

"Of course, my King, I will offer what you desire into your palm, and then according to the contract, I will receive your reward, and become an existence above humans...

I should never have been an ordinary human, I was born to be a giant—your people!"
