Chapter 463 - Starting Over

TL: LifeisaJourney

Once again Liu Gan opened up his dimensional storage space to check on his new PDA. Specifically, he wanted to check on the whereabouts of the King Crocodile. The King Crocodile was still quite far away, it hadn’t moved since it had returned to sleep.

It seemed the King Crocodile was a nocturnal creature, active during the night, and asleep by day. This gave time for Liu Gan to think of ways to kill it. The first step was to plan escape routes.

Scaling the cliff was hard work, and they all had to rest after reaching the top. Liu Gan confirmed their next destination as the forest outside the King Crocodile’s territory. Then he would start planning for the next step in his elaborate plan.

According to the group’s collective brainstorming, Liu Gan pulled out his special nanite rope from the dimensional storage space. He wrapped it around a tree trunk eight meters above the ground. Even if the King Crocodile was chasing after him, he could grab the rope with ease and jump off. If the King Crocodile got entangled, it would even be better.

After hustling and bustling, Liu Gan glanced in the direction of the creature. Prior to receiving the new PDA, Liu Gan would feel nervous since potential enemies could be lurking at every corner. With the minimap, he could accurately pinpoint the dangers before they struck. There would no longer be any worries about any unwelcome encounters.

After trudging through mud and dirt, Liu Gan was covered in filth. He wiped the stink off his body as he checked the PDA once again. No one knew when the King Crocodile would wake up from its slumber. Constantly checking the PDA was a precautionary measure, just in case it did wake up. It was a formidable foe, they couldn’t lower their guards.

From the earlier fight, Liu Gan could summarize the King Crocodile’s two main types of attack. Once was the claw swipe, the other was the roar. The roar was a type of mental attack, it was the roar that had kept him from moving.

Since it was a mental attack, it was highly effective against players. The moment they were caught in the attack, they were doomed. It wasn’t as useful against Liu Gan, once he figured out how to counter the attack. Happily, the King Crocodile couldn’t use the suppression roar in succession. The ability had a cooldown time and whenever it was used, Liu Gan would use his ability to counter it.

The King Crocodile’s claw swipe was the worrisome issue. There was a chance that Liu Gan wouldn’t be able dodge all the attacks. Every attack would take off a fourth of his Mist Armor’s durability. Those penetrating attacks were overwhelming. However, Liu Gan’s Enhanced Crescent Blade couldn’t penetrate through the Black Fog shield. It was a one-sided battle from beginning to end.

Without a doubt, the overflowing Black Fog shield was an improved version of his Mist Armor. All of his attacks were rendered useless against this shield, it was like all the attacks were displaced. The shield was equivalent to Yin He’s Spatial Armor. Liu Gan speculated that unless the Black Fog shield was destroyed, he had no chance of harming its flesh.

This was an especially worrisome situation. Needless to say, Liu Gan’s shield was far weaker than the King Crocodile’s shield. Liu Gan didn’t have any long-distance attacks, he relied purely on close-quarters combat. No matter what happened, he would lose first in a battle of attrition.
