182 Seeking Wealth in Danger (2/2)

With that thought in mind, Jiang Fei held the Black Dragon Scale even tighter in his hands. He hoped that Init Stata's Dragon Scale would scare off the monsters around here. Otherwise, Jiang Fei would be no better than chicken feed.

After exiting the cave, Jiang Fei took a few steps forward before bumping into a humanoid being that stood over three meters.

War Demon (Demon, Advanced Elite)

Level: 75

Health Points: 680,000

Attack Power: 9,800

Skills: Charge, Cleave, War Stomp.

Remarks: A core member of the Demon Army.

Threat Level: Imminent Destruction!

”Oh, f*ck me… This is actually the Demon's map…”

Jiang Fei felt like fainting right there and then. The Demon Race's weaklings started off at Level 60. You would never find anything lower than that. A Level 75 Advanced Elite had just appeared before him as soon as he came out. Needless to say, this was not the outskirts of the map. It was at least the middle stage of the maps. Init Stata was a Level 80 Lord. As it was, Jiang Fei was still capable of suppressing these monsters with the Black Dragon Scale. Heaven forbade him running into a Lord at this rate.

*Buzzes*

Jiang Fei's Treasure Hunting Ring was releasing a blinding glow. A large yellow arrow was directing him somewhere into the distance.

”Oh, of course! The Fruit of the Devil just had to be here. I can't afford to screw up now,” Jiang Fei said with a groan. A final ingredient was needed to complete his Race Quest, but it also meant great danger.

*Rumble*

Right then, Jiang Fei felt the ground shaking.

”What is happening?” Jiang Fei asked as he subconsciously turned around. A few hundred meters away was a giant monster walking towards him.

It was no small distance, but the monster's sheer size almost took up all of Jiang Fei's vision. It was at least forty meters tall, and was practically a moving mountain. The monster's appearance was similar to that of a huge hound. However, its entire body burned with a bright flame.

Lava Demon Hound (Demon, Lord)

Level: Unknown

Health Points: 100%

As they were too far apart, the Mysterious Ring could not fully surmise its details. But Jiang Fei knew better than to approach it for a more accurate reading. God knows the attack range of this thing, which most probably scaled to its size. If it caught Jiang Fei in its sight, there would be no escape.

Right then, there was a cliff to Jiang Fei's left. The Lava Demon Hound was in the opposite direction. His only path of escape was forwards, which was also the direction where the Treasure Hunting Ring wanted him to go.

Jiang Fei ran for his life. Fortunately, the Black Dragon Scale was still in effect. The little monsters around him did not attack him, while the Lava Demon Hound did not discover him.

Even while in relative safety, Jiang Fei did not dare rest until the Lava Demon Hound was out of his sight.

”F*ck it! Arrow's headed that way. Let's find out if I can even get close to the Fruit of the Devil in the first place!”

Jiang Fei made up his mind. He was only attempting to flee from the Lava Demon Hound. The only safe route happened to be the Fruit of the Devil. If he could not shake the danger off, he would try to seek wealth in the midst of that danger!

After sprinting for nearly 30 minutes, Jiang Fei finally caught sight of his target.
