Chapter 235: Chapter 235
The rules for the end-of-the-month explosion have changed, but never mind that, today I’ll add two more Chapters. Thanks for everyone’s support.
"No, I can’t die, I must take revenge, I need to become a great noble, I need to revive my family..."
Aelius was shakily murmuring to himself, trying to hypnotize himself. Seeing the Sandpeople catching up, even the second-tier Quicksand soldier was walking towards him. They weren’t afraid of the poison, so they completely ignored the swamp.
As for not being able to dive underground, they were the dominant force now, so why would they hide?
Just then, Aelius pulled out a bright red scroll. This scroll was a high-powered one he had bought in case he encountered danger on this mission, a powerful peak-tier spell scroll for Flame Explosion Skill.
Against an ordinary second-tier entity, this spell might not work well, but against the Sandpeople, who have low magic resistance, especially to fire, the Flame Explosion Skill can certainly threaten the second-tier Quicksand soldiers.
Without a second thought, Aelius activated it, and a large fireball formed instantly.
Feeling the danger, the Quicksand soldier wanted to retreat immediately, but found his feet stuck. He couldn’t outrun the spell due to the severe impact on his speed.
He wanted to dive underground to dodge, but the ground had turned into a swamp, and the Sandpeople’s talent won’t allow him to escape. After wasting time trying twice, he could only helplessly watch the fireball coming towards him.
The Quicksand soldier roared, brandishing his four long swords with sand-like strength. This was both offense and defense. "Boom!" The fireball exploded.
Under the terrifying explosion, the Quicksand soldier managed to block the spell, but he himself was seriously injured.
At the moment of Aelius’s despair and the Quicksand soldier’s rage, sparks fell into the swamp.
The swamp’s mucus was ignited instantly, and the surrounding temperature rose sharply. Before Aelius could say anything, he was turned into charcoal in the fire.
Aelius was not of any special race; under such an attack, he couldn’t possibly survive.
The second-tier Quicksand soldier, who might have had a chance to survive, was injured by the Flame Explosion Skill, which depleted most of his Quicksand Douqi. In the sudden fire, he only held on for a moment before exhausting his strength.
Finally, he could only burn to death helplessly in the fire.
The other Quicksand soldiers also shared the same fate. Du You suddenly turned back and saw the fire behind him. It was so bright in the night that even from a distance, Du You could see it clearly.
"Surprisingly, I scored from so far away. What a fortune."
Du You found that, even from far away, the effect of his landmines and the ignited swamp mucus were credited to him. Several orbs had appeared in his personal space.
One by one, he opened them. Du You’s eyes lit up: "Has the second-tier Quicksand soldier died? That’s good news. But I need to move faster. If the people of the Quicksand Empire react, I won’t be able to get away."
Du You saw a red ball, which also contained red Crystal Coins, not the usual white ones. These were left only by the death of a second-tier being. So far, he had killed two beings exceeding Tier-One level.
It’s a pity that he wasn’t at the 10th level, otherwise, he could easily break through to the second tier now. However, who wouldn’t benefit from his power? When he reaches the 10th level, he can easily kill some weaker second-tier beings.
As he ran, he continued to open these orbs. Not many good things were inside, but he got two more pieces of Sand Guard Armor.
The second-tier Quicksand soldier, however, gave him a second-tier dagger.
Normal Dagger: Sharpness 12, shallow red (Bleed)
Well, a very ordinary dagger, but at least it’s a shallow red level. If sold back home, it could fetch a good price. It’s a pity though, he doesn’t seem to need money now, be it the white Crystal Coins or the red ones.
What he lacks is his exclusive Crystal Coin, which can only be obtained through his own effort, and cannot be sold.
Storing the items, Du You continued his journey. The target of this mission was on the cliffs on either side. Because it was night, the griffins wouldn’t just fly out but stayed in their nests.
Du You knew that the best time to collect griffin eggs was at night. Because in the daytime, the griffins’ eyesight is excellent. Once he makes a move, other griffins will fly over and launch a joint attack on him. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⚫𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⚫𝘯𝘦𝘵
Taking advantage of the night, Du You quietly crept up and quickly arrived at the edge of a huge griffin nest.
"What a thrill, just like when I was collecting the Wing Dragon eggs." Back then, the Wing Dragons were only tier-2 creatures and didn’t count for much, plus there were many of us. This time, it’s only me.
But back then, it wasn’t easy for me to deal with the Wing Dragons. But now dealing with these griffins doesn’t seem like much of a challenge. As he drew close to the nest, Du You finally saw a griffin.
"Hehe, level 6, that’s not a low level. But in terms of the griffin level limit, you wild griffins are just not good enough." As Du You saw the griffin, it also saw Du You.
The griffin looked sharply at Du You, issuing a threatening cry.
But this time, it wasn’t facing an ordinary threat. Another griffin in the nest heard the sound and also looked outside. Griffins usually pair up and guard their offspring together.
Without a word, Du You waved and cast a Disintegration Spell. The griffin’s magic resistance was quite good, but it couldn’t resist his Disintegration Spell. With one spell, the griffin in his way was torn to pieces.
Now his spell’s power was really strong.
When the other griffin saw his partner killed, its eyes turned red immediately and it lunged at Du You. Its sharp claws could easily leave deep marks on the rock.
If the griffin got close, even he would have a hard time.
Suddenly, the Curse Aura was activated, and the griffin, whose vision was already poor at night, was completely blinded. The blinded griffin attacked in panic, and lost sight of Du You.
Xiaozi didn’t stop to think before firing a Thunder Light Orb, effortlessly killing it.
Strictly speaking, at night, the vision of the purple-lightning golden eagle was also affected. But it wasn’t as bad as the griffin’s, and certainly not like an ordinary eagle, which would be blind at night. Otherwise, how could Du You make Xiaozi fly him around at night?
"Good job. Let’s clean up and move on."
Du You quickly moved forward and looked at the volleyball-sized eggs in the nest.
