Chapter 334: Earth Giants

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“Silver-Feathered Eagle, fly over that mountain and show me the scene.”

Screech—

At this time, the role of the Silver-Feathered Eagle came in handy. Ordinary players would usually rely on their eyes to observe, while teams had to send a Bandit to explore the way. Although Hunters were allowed to bring Contract Pets, the distance limit between the pets and their masters was 55 yards. Once exceeded, they would return to their masters by the effect of the contract.

The Silver-Feathered Eagle was different as it was a Scouting-Type pet. After it had grown, it had gained the ability to hide. Besides its poor stats, which rendered it easy to be killed, it had no other shortcomings.

However, Lin Jie had met a Burning Crow again.

The appearance of the Burning Crow made Lin Jie more certain that someone had entered the map, and that person must have been playing on the Rajakil Forest Map for a long period of time. Only they could be proficient in Fire Spells.

Fire Spells would cause extra damage to Tree Demons and Toxic Worms. Hence, more than 70% of the players in this forest specialized in Fire damage.

Through Spirit Vision, the Silver-Feathered Eagle transmitted what it saw to Lin Jie’s eyes. Although that was a wilderness plain as well, hundreds of people had shown up! Among them, the Mages accounted for more than 90%, and there were some familiar faces such as Black Eyes and Small Melon.

Hundreds of people were fighting against a mountain-sized Earth Giant like ants! This giant was 50 meters tall, which was several times taller than the real Mountain Giant. As his legs stamped, the earth moved, and the mountain shook!

“Jump!”

With a roar, the players jumped up one after another to avoid the [Earthquake] attack of the Earth Giant. Unfortunately, some players were slow to respond. As the earth shook, they were hit high into the air, and their bodies were stiff and unable to move. Then the giant’s think arm swung by, and directly hit and killed those players like a baseball!

A voice attracted Lin Jie. He looked over and saw Eighteen Massacres, wearing a Dark Armor and holding a Seven Style Spear, which turned into the shape of Broken Blade!

After Eighteen Massacres had entered the map, he had found the strange elemental fluctuation of the Barbarian Throne and run into this [Earth Giant].

The Earth Giant was a part of the Elemental Overlord. When the Elemental Overlord had torn the space and left, a part of it had been cut down. Over the passage of a long time, the Earth Giant had assimilated elements to strengthen itself, and evolved to the Dark Gold Overlord level!

How powerful was a Dark Gold Overlord? Not to mention its strong stats, the most terrible thing was its ability to summon its followers. How could one be called an “Overlord” when it had no followers? It was the ability of every Overlord to summon its followers simply with a wave. This was also the reason why Lin Jie would rather kill a Dark Gold Boss than a Gold Overlord.

It was too hard to get rid of its followers!

Many ants together could kill elephants!

However, this land had no more Earth Element! Because all the Earth Element had become the habitat of the King of Barbarism, the Barbarian Throne! Hence, the Earth Giant had no ability to summon its followers! How could Eighteen Massacres let go of such a good opportunity? After killing a Dark Gold Overlord, which was the highest form of the evolution of the Elemental Spirit, he would be able to get the core of Earth Giant, the [Earth Crystal]! It could be used to make Dark Gold equipment, and even after conversion, it could reshape its essence and become a Dark Gold Fragment!

Eighteen Massacres’ armor was a Dark Gold Fragment, the Mara Armor. When he had been at level 20, he had gone deep into the Level 35 [Holy Church Prison] map, completed the Level 45 [Chain Trial Court] map, and lost several levels before he could gather all the mission materials to hand to the Dark Shrine in exchange for 2 fragments of the Mara Armor. However, the last fragment could only be acquired by entering the Level 70 [Dragon Abyss] map to steal the eggs when he was at level 30. He had tried, but there had been no chance of success. Hence, there was no hope of completing this Dark Gold Mara Armor.

However, if he killed the Earth Giant and obtained the Earth Crystal, he could create the last fragment and complete the Mara Armor. Thus, he would be able to boast in the final battle and kill!

Eighteen Massacres was smart. He ordered that the Fire Mages’ output could only take 70% of the team’s total output to prevent the production of too much Elemental Spirit, which was hard to kill. While the Burning Crows spawned around were killed by him alone. By doing so, he could show off his powerful ability, absorb the Elemental Spirit to enhance the strength of his Blood Token, and also monopolize materials such as the Fire Crystal.

It was akin to shooting three birds with one stone!

‘After the Burning Crow was killed, it seemed that a stream of air had been absorbed by him.’ Lin Jie observed Eighteen Massacres’ small action through the vision of the Silver-Feathered Eagle. Lin Jie frowned as he thought, ‘According to Dark Shrine’s usual way of doing things, they must be absorbing the souls of something with strong stats! It seems that Eighteen Massacres hired this group of players for some purpose. If necessary, he would not hesitate to kill them in order to strengthen his own strength.’

Lin Jie ordered the Silver-Feathered Eagle to return. Then, he killed another Burning Crow and inlaid the Fire Crystal into the Ancient Wilderness Scroll. So far, he had killed 7 Burning Crows and gotten 7 Fire Crystals, which were inlaid in the Ancient Wilderness Scroll.

The Ancient Wilderness Curse had been superimposed 10 times, with additional damage of 50%!

‘I can still kill 10 units, but there aren’t Barbarians in this map for me to converge the Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe.’ Lin Jie thought about it and took out the character card of Graham.

Graham was practicing his skills. Seeing that Lin Jie had suddenly summoned him, he said respectfully, “Master, what can I do for you?”

Lin Jie grinned. “Tell me all the secrets of this map.”

Graham’s eyes gleamed, and he said, “I don’t know much about it, but I know that there’s an Earth Giant over here. It was formed from a part of the Elemental Overlord. Kill him, and you can get the Earth Crystal, which is a very rare material.”

“I already know that. What else? For example, the Barbarians in this map?”

“Hmmm… All I know is that the King of Barbarism was sealed under the Barbarian Throne.”

Lin Jie nodded. “In this case, I’m going to do something later, and it’s not convenient to take you with me. I’ll temporarily seal your right to come out. After I’ve killed the King of Barbarism, I’ll let you out to tell me the training suggestions of the Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe.”

Lin Jie was decisive and was about to seal this character card. After sealing, the character card would be in the “inactive” state, allowing transactions, but the mission would also fail.

Fortunately, the Barbarian had not released any mission, and Lin Jie had nothing to worry about after sealing the card.

“No, don’t do that, master! There are other ways without the Barbarians. As long as there are enough Fire Crystals, I can also converge the Barbarians’ powerful weapon, the [Flame Battleaxe]. If you kill the humans of the alternate realms, I can converge the [Soul Battleaxe], so don’t seal me!” roared the Graham.

“Hmph, what’s your use without the Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe?” As soon as Lin Jie slapped it, the character card was sealed.

The reason why Graham had tried so hard was to protect the King of Barbarism. Although he seemed nonthreatening, it was hard to guarantee that he had no other means to absorb the power of the King of Barbarism after Lin Jie had killed it. Sealing the card was the safest way.

Lin Jie was not a god, meaning he did not understand the power of law. However, he was a player who was supported by the system rules. The system rule was the most powerful law power and was of the Lord God’s level! Hence, no matter how powerful the character was, the players only needed to wave their hands to seal the character when it was only a Character Card.

Putting the Goblet of Soul back into the bag, Lin Jie moved towards the area where Eighteen Massacres was, and he killed all the Burning Crows on his way! The Ancient Wilderness Curse barely stopped when it was staked to 18 layers.

Looking at the map of Barbarian Throne, the players could realize one thing clearly: there were only a few monsters. If Eighteen Massacres had not broken in with so many Mages, there would not be so many Burning Crows. Even the whole map had only 2 monsters: the Earth Giant and the King of Barbarism.

Then the meaning of the system was very clear: although the Ancient Wilderness Curse gave you restrictions, it also gave you strong power.

Lin Jie tried to interpret the system’s meaning: kill the Barbarian Guards of the Ancient Wilderness Temple, and kill the Magus Berserker to stack the Ancient Wilderness Curse. Finally, kill the King of Barbarism at the Barbarian Throne. Among these, the Ancient Wilderness Curse was likely to play a crucial role.

The Ancient Wilderness Curse was superimposed 18 times, with additional damage of 90%!

Now, Lin Jie’s most powerful move was no longer Shield Cut followed by Army Obliteration, but Shield Cut followed by Clomaros’ Kill! Although Army Obliteration had 4 attacks in total, which provided huge total damage, it would cause 4 times of Attack Judgment as well.

What was Attack Judgment? Firstly, it was judged by whether the attack hit the target. For those who had high speed, for example, Star Kill could avoid attacks using his skills, and Zheng Ziliang could summon his Gargoyle to defend the following attack after he was hit by the first. Secondly, it judged the damage made, that was, damage minus Defense, including factors such as Weak Spot Judgment and level handicap.

After going through the 4 rounds of Judgment, the final damage of Army Obliteration generally was reduced by a lot!

However, Clomaros’ Kill had only one-time Attack Judgment. If he could aim the target with one hit, Lin Jie could kill any player with low HP instantly! Even Mixed Breathless would be crying to his parents when he was hit by Armor Removal, followed by Clomaros’ Kill.

‘90% damage buff, I think I could easily deal 2,000 points of damage now.’ The corner of Lin Jie’s mouth curled up, and his eyes flashed with a trace of teasing. He murmured, “Eighteen Massacres, enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road. Dark Blade… Hehehe.”

…

Presently, the battle on Eighteen Massacres’ side had reached the climax!

Even though the Earth Giant’s health points reached 3,000,000, it was a matter of time for it to be defeated as it was facing so many enemies. But at this time, the violent Earth Giant started to absorb all elements to assimilate into Earth Element, and with a stamp of its leg, hundreds of Earth Giants with a height of only 10 meters were created!

“Don’t use other Elemental Magic to avoid summoning the Elemental Spirit. Fire Mages, attack! The rest, go to the front and attract aggro, Hunters help to misdirect! For those who died in this battle, 1 gold coin will be subsidized. For those who voluntarily attracted aggro and died, 10 gold coins will be subsidized!” shouted Eighteen Massacres. He used the money to lure players into defeating it by large numbers of attacks!
