Chapter 451 - Final Quest

After ten minutes, the tremors started weakening, and the King Crocodile’s roars were fainter. Without a doubt, they had unknowingly ventured into its territory, and crossed the border of its zone. It was also a possibility that the bonfires had played a part in luring the monster so close. It was still very dark out, so the bonfires would’ve been like beacons.

Half an hour later, the tremors of its footsteps had ceased, and even its roars could no longer be heard. That was when Liu Gan finally stood up from the mud bank. He headed in a direction away from the King Crocodile, while still moving quietly. It was no longer viable to stay near the public square. The camp that they had set up for the night had to be abandoned.

After two more hours of quietly trudging through the mud, Liu Gan felt that he was far enough away from the monster that he could re-establish a new campsite.

The air was so cold that the liquid from the mud had started to turn to ice. Even if it was dangerous to start a fire, they had to take the risk. Once Liu Gan found a good campsite, he had everyone gather firewood. They created multiple bonfires, with them sitting around the central bonfire to stay warm. Aside from staying warm, it was also used to dry their clothes.

“Who would’ve thought that Evil Dragon Gulf actually contained an Evil Dragon!” Cai Hao Chen sighed.

“Yeah! A creature of that size is ridiculous right? It’s just terrifying to think about!” Liu Kang responded.

“I’m afraid only Lord Liu could handle it.” Ana glanced over at Liu Gan.

“I don’t think I can handle it,” Liu Gan disagreed. He barely managed to fight against the smaller version of the King Crocodile, there was no way he can put up a fight against that monstrosity. Liu Gan felt that this monster was Nin Jing City’s final BOSS. It could be possible that he would need ten to fifteen level 15 players to work together to take it down.

As a level 12, the level discrepancy was too high. On top of that, Yin He couldn’t even enter the instance. First things first, he must reach level 15. After that, he could foster the growth of several other players to level 15. Maybe then, he would have a chance at competing against the final BOSS.

“So does this mean that we can’t complete this instance?” Star Yu whispered.

“Wait until the square dancing quest is finished, then if anyone of you want to leave, I won’t force you to stay. That final BOSS is here, so this instance just increased in difficulty. Regardless, I still want to stay a while longer,” Liu Gan said to the players.

“I’ve already decided to follow Lord Liu!” Cai Hao Chen spoke up quickly.

“I won’t leave,” Liu Kang also chimed in.

“I will also follow Lord Liu to fight against the Evil Dragon!” Ana clenched her fist, stating that she had no intention of escaping.

“They say that those who are favored will be struck by lightning. I, Stratos, am not afraid of lightning! I will be the electricity that empowers you! I will continue to work for Lord Liu! So I must stay behind!” Stratos continued with his theatrical nonsense.
