Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 95

Chapter 95 It’s No Use Praying

After hiding to the side, Xu You carefully observed the stone giant’s appearance. This big guy is at least 15 meters tall, In its eyes, players were like ants. Their bodies were made up of grey-white rocks. They looked very natural. Their legs were short and arms were long. Their torso was sturdy. They only had a piece of rag wrapped around their waist. They were simple and simple. They were almost the same as the mountain giants in the game poster. The only difference was that their bodies weren’t as big as the mountain giants.

The Stone Giant didn’t move very fast, just like ordinary players. This was the slowest amongst the monster groups. Recalling the lion in the Duramo Prairie, Xu You felt that the Stone Giant’s movement speed was about the same as a turtle’s.

“How is it, Buqu? Do you have any other feelings?” Xu You and the others hid far away from the wide road to avoid provoking the Stone Giant’s hatred. Their ranks were far inferior to the Stone Giant’s, causing the Stone Giant’s hatred towards them to increase by a large margin.

“That person called out to me very clearly, but that’s all. I don’t have any other feelings.” The orc warrior said.

“Nothing? How is this possible?” This was different from what Xu You had expected. His idea was that after Buqu approached the Stone Giant, he would have new instructions, such as where to find clues and so on.

“Brother Wuyou, the stone man is far away. Should we follow him?” Zhao Xi reminded.

“Yes, follow me first.” Xu You nodded, and the group followed behind the stone giant.

“Really?” Xu You asked unwillingly.

“No, that voice just called me ‘Come, come’, it’s like chanting …” Buqu was worried to death. He thought he had a clue. Who knew that he wouldn’t be able to follow after getting close to him? What was going on?

“Captain, do you want to defeat this stone giant and drop that shield?” Zhao Chen asked.

“How is that possible? Can we beat that guy? This mission won’t be that difficult.” Xu You shook his head. Actually, it was not impossible. However, if that was the case, this mission would not be completed by a Level 20 player. That would be inconsistent with his previous deduction. However, Xu You still believed in himself.

“How do you know it won’t be that difficult? I think Uncle’s hidden mission is just that difficult. If you want to defeat the Boss monster to complete it, then the rewards will be much more generous.” Only Zhao Chen would doubt Xu You’s judgement, but this seemed to be a good thing. Because someone questioned Xu You, Xu You would not be blindly confident and would not make empiricist mistakes.

“Uh” Xu You could not refute Zhao Chen’s words. His previous deduction was indeed just his experience, and there was no evidence that the stone giant was not Buqu’s quest monster.

“But we can’t beat this big guy.” Qingwu was still very protective of Xu You.

“Uh.” This time, it was Zhao Chen’s turn to refute.

“Don’t worry about whether you fight or not. Follow this guy for a while and see what happens.” Xu You made a decision.

Actually, they weren’t long either. The Stone Giant was heading north along the road. However, if they headed north, the monsters on the side of the road would exceed Level 27 or Level 8. At that time, even if they walked in a straight line in the middle of the road, they would still attract the hatred of the monsters on the side of the road.

However, they had no other choice. They could only follow him first to see if there were any other clues to the mission.

After walking for a while, Xu You felt that they could no longer follow him, because the level of the roadside monster had already exceeded Level 25. A minute ago, Zhao Chen accidentally walked too close to the roadside and had already led him to a Death Vulture. Fortunately, it was only one. They were beaten to death by Xu You and the others. Otherwise, it would be troublesome. However, it gave them a warning that they could not go north again.

“No, I can’t follow you anymore.” Xu You stopped and frowned.

“Then what should we do? The clue is going to break again.” Buqu looked very anxious. He felt that today was not his lucky day.

“Ah! Look, there’s something on the stone giant’s back. Is it the shield that Uncle wants?” Qingwu suddenly shouted.

“Huh?” Everyone raised their heads and looked at the stone giant, who was walking further and further away. At this moment, the moon had just walked out of a dark cloud, giving the earth a glimmer of light. On the stone giant’s back, there was a small piece of light. From afar, it looked like a fish’s scale. However, the stone giant only had stones. Where did the scales come from? Therefore, this small piece of light was definitely not the stone giant’s.

Xu You narrowed his eyes when he saw the reflective object. He hoped to see it clearly, but the moon quickly hid in the clouds. The light dimmed and the stone giant walked far away. Xu You could no longer see what was on the stone giant’s back.

“Brother Wuyou, is that the shield?” Qingwu asked. She had just guessed, but she had not seen it clearly.

Xu You shook his head, causing everyone to feel a little disappointed. But then, he said, “I didn’t see it clearly, but 70 to 80 percent of it is that shield. However, this means that we are going to fight against the stone giant.”

The reason why he was so sure was because of Xu You’s experience. However, the closer the orc warrior got to the stone giant, the louder his summons became. This proved that there was a clue on the stone giant’s body, and the stone giant had a shield-like “scale” embedded in its back. If the two were to combine, things would see the light of day.

“Really? Great! Haha!” Unyielding, the cheerful orc warrior returned to his original state.

“Hu, that’s great. Finally, there’s no need to run around anymore. Look, Yue Wuyou, I said I was going to hit that big guy, but you still said no.” Zhao Chen was very proud. Her guess was actually correct.

“Hey hey hey, you guys didn’t listen to me. We’re going to fight that 150,000 HP boss monster. What are you guys so happy about?” Xu You said unhappily.

“I don’t care about that. You’re the captain. Think of a way to do this. We’ll just do it.” Zhao Chen was so angry that Xu You was half dead, but the other teammates seemed to think the same way. They all looked at him with smiles.

“Then Zhao Chen, why don’t you go dance and have the stone giant kneel under your robe?” Xu You was furious and decisively suggested a “good idea”.

“Die! I won’t teach you a lesson!” Hearing this, Zhao Chen chased after Xu You with his staff and executed the Dog Beating Stick Technique.

The other three looked helpless again. Qingwu could only come out as a peacemaker and stop the two of them. Otherwise, Zhao Chen could chase Xu You out of the Dead Valley and run the entire Sunrise Plains.

“Stop messing around. Uncle Buqu’s mission is still waiting for us.”

After being told by Qingwu, the two of them stopped messing around and continued to fight with their eyes.

“The only way to hit this boss is to fly a kite. Other than this, I can’t think of anything else.” After thinking for a while, Xu You gave his answer.

Actually, after he learned the [Aura of Divine Speed], there is no limit to the possibilities of kite-flying, However, the kite flying target must be close combat. There were no ranged skills or advancement skills, or none of these skills were powerful. Moreover, their movement speed was not as fast as theirs. Furthermore, they had to be fighting in the wild. This way, they could eat unlimited supplies. If the above conditions were met, generally speaking, as long as they were able to hit monsters, they would be able to deal with them.

However, these conditions required them to probe and try themselves, that is, they had said many times that they would “play once again”. Only in this way would they be able to determine whether the object of flying the kite met the requirements.

“I don’t think I need to explain how to fly a kite, but we need to know if the stone giant meets the requirements to fly a kite. Otherwise, we won’t be able to play.” Xu You had already said everything he needed to say. Now, it all depended on what everyone felt.

“You want to fight again?” Zhao Chen asked.

“Yes, but this isn’t an instance dungeon. The consequences of annihilation are very serious.” Xu You shrugged.

After saying that, everyone felt somewhat embarrassed. Right now, in the wilderness, death would deduct 10% of their experience. With their current level and speed of leveling, it would take them an hour to recover from their deaths. The price was not small, but it was not unacceptable.

“Alright, let’s fight. For Uncle Buqu’s hidden profession, let’s fight!” Zhao Chen shouted his slogan in a good manner.

“Mm, there’s no reward for not paying. Let’s fight.” Qingwu also nodded. She and the orc warriors were good friends. They usually talked about different things, but now it was time for her to stand up.

“Uncle, do your best. I will protect you.” Zhao Xi’s words moved Buqu the most.

“Thank you, I will live up to everyone’s expectations!” The orc warrior’s expression was very serious, even a little solemn.

“Very good, since you are all ready to sacrifice, then go find the stone giant!” Xu You’s words were as if he was standing aside, but no one would suspect that he would retreat.

“Alright!”

Xu You smiled and shook his head. Then, he opened his status bar and looked at his stats. He felt powerless to fight a boss monster with 150,000 HP.

After looking at his stats and equipment, Xu You felt that it wasn’t bad anymore. With 500 HP, 800 attack power, and 14% critical strike rate, it was definitely not inferior to many players in the current player group. However, Xu You didn’t have much confidence in facing the Stone Giant.

Xu You had quite a few skills, However, the only halo that could be used in normal battles was the [Divine Speed Halo], [Devout Aura], [Focus Aura], and [Non-Aura] were more powerful. [Crusader Strike] and [Justice Trial] were both good output skills. [Hammer of Punishment] and [Confession] were the most satisfying limited skills. [Contribution] wasn’t a high damage skill, but it was also useful. As for the other Resistance Auras and [Disciplinary Aura], it was a bit of weakness.

Xu You knew that the strongest hidden profession was the Halo Heart, a passive skill. However, he hadn’t learned a few powerful halo skills, so he couldn’t fully reveal the effects of the Halo Heart. Perhaps he was the “late hero” in the competitive game.

As for Xu You, he was the best-equipped and best-attributed person in the squad, so if he used his squad’s strength to challenge Stone Giant Carlos, others would definitely think that they were crazy.

“Brother Wuyou, what are you still thinking about? Let’s go!”

Xu You raised his head and saw Qingwu and the others waving at him from afar. He hurriedly chased after him.

…

“The stone giant is coming!” Qing Wu said on the team channel.

At this time, Xu You and the others had already returned to the vicinity of Camp Lam. Xu You knew that the stone giant was circling infinitely along a circular path in the Dead Valley, so as long as they waited on this path, they would be able to wait for the stone giant.

Right now, Qingwu was standing at a high point not far from him, and he had already observed the stone giant’s figure. The battle was about to begin.

“Little Wu, come back. The battle is about to begin. I repeat, other than Little Wu, everyone else’s mission is to listen to my commands. Follow me and be prepared to deal with unexpected situations at any time. Understood?” Xu You finally explained that flying kites was the first invention of the hunter profession. Of course, it was also the most suitable for the hunter profession to play. This battle was actually a stage for Qing Wu alone.

“Understood!”

“Then pray for good luck in this battle.” Xu You said as he looked at the stone giant slowly walking towards him.

“It’s fine, I believe that big fellows don’t know long-range skills!” Zhao Chen was very confident, but to tell the truth, the stone giant Carlos should be a high-blood-proof monster, just like the big turtle in Cave of East Sea. It really didn’t look like a monster with long-range skills.

“I hope so.” Xu You smiled and said, but that was impossible. Even a Lord-level Violet Ring Lion King had ranged skills. How could a Boss-level Stone Giant not have ranged skills? However, he did not say what he wanted to say in his heart. He only hoped that the Stone Giant’s ranged skills would not be that powerful.

“Alright, I’m going to lure the monsters.” Qingwu said calmly as he paced forward with great generality.

“Alright, everyone get ready. Our marathon race is about to begin!” Xu You joked. The Stone Giants had too much blood, and only Qingwu could fly kites. Zhao Chen’s instant-firing skill was barely counted. However, the difference between their level and the boss was so great that their shooting rate would not exceed 40%. Therefore, this battle would be very long and they would have to run. So, it was appropriate to say that the marathon was a match.

“Oh oh oh, another toy is coming. Let’s have fun!” However, before Qingwu could reach the range, he had already aroused the Stone Giant’s hatred. However, he did not expect its opening remarks to be so childish.

However, the moment the stone giant made his next move, no one felt that way. Qingwu had just entered the range. After firing an arrow at Miss, he saw the stone giant grab a three to four meter tall withered tree beside him, uproot it, and throw it towards Qingwu.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Qingwu immediately dodged to the side, and the dead tree that flew over like a rocket smashed into Qingwu’s side, splashing sand and stones on the ground.

“Holy shit! Everyone, hurry up and run! Follow me!” When Xu You saw this, he knew that his expectations were self-deceiving. Prayer was useless. The four English letters “boss” were not written for students to learn English.
