Chapter 1018 Transformation into Overlord
According to Luen's description, these five giants were not originally giants, but just ordinary overlord monsters, and they had a good relationship with the Jinlunga people.

After all, if you want to survive in this snowfield, you need to maintain your body temperature. The Jinlunjiabei people who mainly feed on soul ice are like ice cubes. Eating Jinlunjiabei people is a foolish act that will cause your body temperature to dissipate.

At that time, the fourth and fifth level cold areas were almost exclusively populated by the Jinlunga northerners and the At giants, and those overlords would only take the initiative to enter this area when they wanted to improve their overlord status and enhance their skill proficiency.

But all the creatures living in this world know about the giant who seems to cover the world, and they also know that the giant is drinking from the river where ice and fire intertwine.

The creatures knew, without guidance, that there was power in the river.

Occasionally, some overlords would be so reckless as to want to taste the river water in order to gain the same power as the giants, but often just by getting close, they would be invaded by the rising water mist, fall into the river, and disappear in the waves.

The intersection of ice and fire has thus become a forbidden zone for life.

But thousands of years ago, the first Overlord Monster somehow knew how to gain the power of poison. That was the body of the At Giant - Soul Ice, which itself was a frozen poisonous liquid.

It ate a large amount of soul ice, propped up its frozen body and stood on the peak of the fifth-level cold zone, letting the temperature from the giant volcano bake its body.

The ice in this world cannot even be melted by magma, and can only be melted by the heat from the giant volcano.

The river flowing in the intersection of ice and fire is so poisonous that it can easily take away any life as if it were boiling. However, soul ice is non-toxic.

Under the high temperature baking from the giant volcano, the soul ice slowly melted. This process was so slow that the properties of most of the soul ice changed, as if the medicinal properties were cooked out, and it turned back into ordinary ice and fragments of soul flame.

The Overlord's soul flame was thus strengthened, but this was not what it was waiting for.

A tiny, ever-so-small amount of soul ice was melted correctly, and the poisonous river water entered its body.

Perhaps that is the inevitability of the evolution of life, to conquer and dominate nature.

The first Overlord gained resistance to the poisonous river water, and the name of that resistance skill was called [Blood of Giant].

When the first transformed overlord is born, it means the second and third.

The ancestors of the Jinlunga people initially believed that this was an antibody that evolved naturally in this world to prevent the At giants from approaching the giant volcano.

But it turned out to be a complete disaster. The overlords who transformed into giants began to dominate nature and took the Jinlungabei as their prey.

The Metamorphosed Overlords have antibodies, but they are not enough. They cannot directly drink the poisonous river water in the Kinlunga Chasm like Jörmungandr. They reduce the toxicity and slowly adapt.

The Jinlungabei people, who were born from the highly poisonous river water, became excellent prey, and their numbers decreased sharply.

Fortunately, the overlords who transformed into giants are also fighting each other, and the probability of gaining resistance by eating soul ice and baking the body is very low. In addition, there are really transformed overlords to challenge Jörmungandr, and the transformed overlords occupy the positions of transformation, so so far there are only five transformed overlords.

Among them, there is also the first transformed overlord - the Blizzard Dragon King.

"If you really want to help us, why don't you go and defeat those five Metamorphosis Overlords? I'm tired of being attacked by them while doing the troublesome task of picking up children."

[Special Mission: Five Giants Lying in the Snow/Accepted]

"No problem~" Grand Captain GG recorded the pattern that Luen left on the wall of the igloo intactly in the Hunter's Notes, "I'll go notify everyone~ You guys chat~"

After the huge body of Grand Commander GG left the igloo, the space in the igloo became much more spacious. Blaze was about to add more firewood when he found that Luen was staring at Herbie.

Blaze remembered that the elder of the Jinlunga northmen once talked about the followers of the evil fire. In this world, Loki was probably the only one who could be associated with the word evil fire.

"She is not a Hellionist."

"I know." "Then you must not know that I am the source of the evil fire you are talking about, a god from the Age of Gods!" Hebi raised his hand, raised his thumb and pointed at himself.

"God? The guy next to you looks like a god, and you're just a kid."

"Little, kid!?" Hebie's eyes twitched, she rolled up her sleeves... and looked at Blaze. She found that Blaze was looking at the Jinlungabeiren behind the window, so she silently pulled her sleeves down.

The gap between the enemy and us is too great, so we cannot engage in a head-on conflict.

"So what is a Hellionist?"

"..." Luen did not answer, but continued to look at Blaze.

"Hey, stop watching. His relationships with women are already messy! He can't commit any more crimes!" Herbie waved her hand in front of Luen's eyes, and then her tone changed, "Of course, if you tell me everything you know, I will let you continue watching."

"Hey, be careful or I'll tell Audrey about this later." Blazer had to turn his head back. He just paid attention to other things for a while, and Herbie started to make business with him.

Fortunately, Luen simply closed her eyes. It was obvious that she would rather give up looking at Blaze than explain everything clearly.

"Tsk, the beauty trap doesn't work, is it because he's still a young boy?"

"Who, who is the brat!?" Blaze stood up as if his tail was stepped on, and then hit the roof of the igloo with a bang.

Although it was an igloo, it was actually made of ice, so Blaze immediately squatted down with his head in his hands.

"Damn it! I'll definitely tell Audrey about this later!"

"Isn't this the same thing as suing your parents?" Herbie shook his head helplessly, rubbing Blazer's head and smiling, "But I am your parent."

"Okay, let's go out and play in the snow. What follows is a conversation between two adults."

"You, I, I'm outside. Just shout if you have any problem." After Blaze kept talking stubbornly for a while, he walked out of the entrance of the igloo in a dejected manner.

The foreigners were planning to upgrade their outpost, and the people of Jinlungabei seemed to be planning to deal with the body of the At Giant. No matter which one it was, he could help.

When only Luen and Herbie were left in the igloo, Herbie put her chin on her knees and squinted at Luen. She was like a snake, looking for Luen's flaws.

"Based on my years of experience, the [routines] I have gathered from strangers, plus my superficial understanding of this snowfield and the matter of the At Giants... there is only one possibility for your silence on the Hellfire believers."

Herbie held up a finger.

"The followers of the evil fire are the people of Jinlunjiabei, but they are the people of Jinlunjiabei who are bewitched by [fire], and you..."

Herbie's finger dropped and pointed at Lune.

"Yes."

"I'm not."

"Really? I'm so sorry." Herbie turned up his collar to hide his blushing face.

Luen's lips moved, but she didn't say anything in the end.
