Chapter 51- Trolls (2/2)
System Notification: Do you accept the quest [Slaughter the Trolls]? (Quest difficulty: A)
Very nice, I quickly accepted it, and an A level quest popped up in my quest menu. Why would a quest that asked to kill normal monsters be an A ranked quest? This could only mean one thing, the levels of the trolls were higher than mine. Damn, it may not be me slaughtering them but rather the other way around!
I went to talk to Dalin again: “Instructor, do you have some secret skill that you can pass down to me?!”
Currently, I couldn’t return back to Ba Huang City to learn new skills so the only skill I had from being a swordsman was the [Combo]. Also, I didn’t even have a chance to learn Quick Blade, Parry, or Heavy Strike etc. since I could only learn skills from this extremely unreliable instructor!
Dalin laid on his little grass bed in his tent and didn’t even bat me an eye. His finger picked his nose and he flung a snot-ball at me——“Nope!”
Clang!
I pull out my Jade sword and sliced that snot-ball in half and said angrily: “Then I’m leaving…”
……
Walking west for 10 minutes, I reached a dark green valley, the area for my quest. In the forest, 3 meter high trolls were just sitting there and between every two trolls was a boiling pot of soup. The Trolls had sharp teeth and a strong body. In addition, when their skin rubbed against their rock seats, sparks appeared! These monsters!
I inched my way forward, and I looked at their stats. Damn, I couldn’t see most of their stats, but I could see the level——
【Troll](Normal Monster)
Level: 38
Attack: ???
Defense: ???
Health: ???
Skills: ???
Description: Trolls, a group of monsters living in the wilderness. Trolls have extremely strong attacks and defenses but their movement are slow. That’s their only weakness. Of course, if a warrior’s sword is sharp enough, it can penetrate their thick skin, but in the past thousand years warriors haven’t been able to kill off any trolls, and instead became ingredients for their soup.
……
“Damn it! I hate eating alligators! Their skin is way too rough!” One troll said while holding a soup ladle.
Another one growled: “Idiot. don’t whine. If it wasn’t for you, we could have gotten that young woman yesterday. Her flesh must be very sweet and delicious!”
“Ha!” The first troll replied “With one hit, that women wounded you! Those kind of women are impossible to swallow. She would break your throat and stomach, and jump out from your stomach!”
The third troll used some branches to stir the soup and said: “No one say anything more. I heard that that woman is the captain of the castle on top of the ice spine and she’s called Frost. She is already a heavenly ranked person, we can’t even be compared to her!”
“Screw it, tomorrow we go to the western graveyard to grab some maggots to eat!”
“Okay! Every time you talk about maggots, I start drool…”
……
I almost threw up but I didn’t dare to suddenly go up and fight them. If these 3 level 38 monsters combined their attacks, I was pretty much dead instantly. So I must find a suitable moment to attack! Hmm, those trolls probably didn’t eat anything good today, and as they drank that soup, they probably would need to pee, and right when they were in the bathroom I would attack them individually!
I waited for a full 3 minutes, and finally, the troll with the wound stood up, and slowly walked away from the campfires. He untied the cloth on his waist…..
……
Screech…
I slowly pull out the sword, and a ray of light appeared, showing that [Turmoil Sword] was in effect. My chance had come! First I would kill off this slightly wounded troll!
Bang!
The Silver-locked boots stepped on the rocks and I dashed towards the troll. Bobo’s speed was even faster and went straight into a level 3 [Combo] attack on the troll’s behind!
“265!”
“234!”
“271!”
Indeed, the defense of the troll was pretty good.
At the same time, I activated [Combo] with my sword, and with a golden hexagram swirling on the sword’s edge, I struck two times on its rock-like skin. This was no fake gold-ranked sword! The troll snarled but it lost quite a bit of HP——
“301!”
“312!”
Indeed, with [Turmoil Sword], in addition to Jade City Sword, my attack damage was just slightly over Bobo’s!
……
Growl!
The troll snarled, spun, and bashed his huge bat on me and Bobo——
“216!”
“279!”
I was still good, and although Bobo’s defense wasn’t as good as mine, he didn’t need any healing either. I continued with the rapid attacks, Stab+Slash+Hack+Strike+Slash!
Clang!
The troll’s leg hit my chest plate, and knocked me back. Damn, it was quite tough!
