Chapter 68: Hill Protector God (2/2)

Realization dawned on me in the next instant. This wasn’t even a little hill but a monster, a gigantic golem. Good lord, what level could this thing be?

It was a huge stone giant with green vines crawling all over its body. It moved extremely slowly. When it swung its stone arms, crunching sounds could be heard due to the friction. The stone giant’s head was at least six meters wide and when it turned, its black, innocent eyeballs moved about.

Hill Protector God (Silver Rank Boss)

Level: 60

Attack: ???

Defense: ???

HP: ???

Skills: ???

……

I was immeasurably shocked. Even though I couldn’t see all of the boss’s stats, what I saw was enough. This boss had broken away from the F-SSS rank division and was a magnificent Silver Rank boss. The equipment it dropped would already be the best of the best.

Was a Level 60 boss something I could take on?

I felt happy and a bit tickled for a moment. I had the same kind of feeling when Lin Yixin lifted her face to let me kiss her that night. At that time, I was pleasantly surprised but also nervous. Kiss her? I didn’t dare to. Don’t kiss? But I wasn’t willing to do that either! These kinds of conflicting feelings could tear one apart!

A huge, magnificent boss was right before me. If I went to fight it, the chances of me winning were below 1%. But I wasn’t willing to give up. This Hill Protector God’s level was so high. If I was able to cross the bridge of 19 levels and kill it, its drop rate would at least be doubled and the chances for a Hero’s Token would be huge.

I tightened my grip around Weeping Fire Blade. Forget it, let’s just go. YOLO!

I dashed over. My Dark Wasp zoomed in before me and ruthlessly stung at the boss’s thigh!

Crack!

44!

Shit! My Dark Wasp’s attack power is so high but it only dealt such pitiful damage? I-isn’t this too exaggerated? If it were me, how much damage could I deal?

Let’s try it!

My sword swung down as I executed my strongest combo: Pardon + Slayer Slash!

MISS!

1009!

Not bad, Rank 3 Pardon lowered the boss’s Defense by 60% and raised the user’s attack power by 45%. Being able to deal 1000 damage was already really good. Meanwhile, the Dark Wasp had attacked the boss when it had 100% of its Defense, and couldn’t break through it.

“Roar!”

The Hill Protector God discovered enemies in its territory and was immediately enraged. It roared and turned around. Its huge fist swung down and landed right on top of my Dark Wasp.

Bang!

1448!

My pitiful Dark Wasp shrieked. It had actually been instantly killed. Even though it had more than 300 Defense, it had still been one-shot so how could my 165 Defense self endure that?

I swiftly retreated, fleeing at top speed. The Hill Protector God was in hot pursuit. Although it wasn’t fast, it chased me at the same speed I ran. One person and one stone dashed through the wilderness.

As I ran, I thought about how I could deal with this Level 60 boss. A flash of inspiration appeared in my mind. Got it. The canyon that I was gathering at was very narrow. There was no issue if I entered but this stone giant could forget about it. It couldn’t even squeeze a fist inside. Since this was the case, I should take that chance!

With a plan in mind, I ran back to where I came from and went inside the canyon.

“Roar…”

The Hill Protector God angrily roared as it chased after me but it was soon stuck between two hills. Furious, it randomly swung its fists around, causing rubble to fly about.

I took advantage of this and went forward. I struck the stone giant’s ankle and then quickly retreated.

“Hahaha!”

I couldn’t hold my laughter. This was my chance! At this rate, I could totally kill this Level 60 Hill Protector God here.

For a moment, the prospect of countless gold coins and high-grade items flitted across my eyes.

……

Yet at this time, multiple blue dots suddenly appeared on my map. Those are… players?

My level was pretty high, so I could spot lower-leveled players on my map. A huge number of players was coming over!

I couldn’t fight the boss anymore, or else I’d definitely die. Anyone would want to kill such a high-level boss. I wouldn’t be able to reap the rewards!

When I thought about that, I firmly used a skill—Earth Escape!

Swhoosh!

I became a streak of red light and entered the ground, vanishing in place.

The stone giant was disoriented when it lost its target and started wandering outside the canyon.

……

Several minutes later, a party appeared in my field of view.

A hot succubus archer girl wielding a longbow walked in front. It was none other that the Coldmoon Rose I had encountered before entering the canyon!

A group of people appeared behind Coldmoon Rose and three people were at the forefront—

Roaming Dragon!

Iron Pardon!

Inconstant!
