Chapter 899: Chapter 899

It was a collision like a spark igniting the earth, a massive explosion spreading its shockwave.

The Giant had completely underestimated the power of the fireball, thinking it was just a fireball and would not do much harm to itself. In reality, the fireball was made of Dark Flames, inherently of the Dark Attribute and possessed very special strength.

Furthermore, the fireball, as if it were a solid entity, brought a tremendous impact force as it fell from the sky.

The Flame Giant, who directly tried to block with its fist, paid the price, its arm was shattered on the spot, and the explosive flames heated its body to a glow. The Dark power infused and started corroding instantly.

With that single strike, the Giant was severely injured. What terrified Du You, however, was the fact that this tier-four Giant faced his fireball and didn’t die on the spot; this was the first time he had seen a creature of the same level survive a direct hit from Destruction Flames. Of course, this Giant was just unlucky, the others might not be so fortunate.

After a wave of Destruction Flames exploded, Du You looked towards the middle of the camp. "Three tier-four Giants, one is already dead and dropped a sphere, one is severely injured and poses no threat now, and the last one remains unscathed."

"Wait a second, they even keep pets? That’s good I didn’t go straight there," Du You noticed a huge Hunting Dog-like creature running out from the Giant’s camp in the distance, its body ablaze with flames.

Probably because of the Giants’ preferences, this Fire Attribute creature had not been killed but was instead being raised. This Flaming Hunting Dog had also reached tier four, currently looking somewhat bedraggled.

This Magical Beast did not possess the immense strength and resilience of the Giants, and if Du You hadn’t failed to notice it immediately and target it directly, this Hunting Dog would definitely be dead by now. The fireball from the Destruction Flames was not of the Fire Attribute; it was of the Dark Attribute.

But even now, their situation wasn’t much better, as a horde of Destruction Evil Dogs formed and began to attack and wreak havoc all around.

The Giants’ camp hadn’t sustained much damage, possibly because they were inherently fiery creatures themselves, and it may also have to do with their rustic style. After the fireball exploded, the entire camp went from a refugee camp to a wrecked one, which was pretty much the same. But the loss to the Giants was significant.

"You two handle that Flaming Giant. I’ll take care of the rest," said Du You quickly. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵

The two sisters nodded. Lin Yushi spread her wings, carrying her sister as she flew over, while Lin Yucha aimed her Spiral Snipe straight at the Giant’s head from the air.

Feeling the threat, the Giant could only raise its arm to defend, allowing the Destruction Evil Dogs to bite it several times in the process.

Du You then turned his gaze to the Hunting Dog Magical Beast, which was now surrounded and in a sorry state amidst a swarm of Destruction Evil Dogs. Without any pity, Du You approached and cast three successive Disintegration Spells.

One Disintegration Spell hit the leg, shattering the Hunting Dog’s limb into chunks. The next two spells hit the head, and the Hunting Dog died without a sound, its head bursting apart.

"Huh, there’s another one; this can’t be a bird, can it?"

Du You suddenly noticed something blackened and charred, jumping around like a burnt turkey. From its aura, Du You identified it was also a Fire Attribute creature, and even a tier-four Magical Beast.

Though it wasn’t targeted, Du You’s attack must have exploded right beside it. Now, seeing Du You approach, the unnamed Magical Beast became excited, jumping around trying to attack.

Du You casually cast a Soul Pierce spell, dispatching it. At this point, the two sisters had also severely injured the last Giant, who was on the brink of death. Looking around, because of the sudden attack, the Flame Giants were in quite a panic.

But these Flame Giants were not high-tier and were all in the middle of the basin, so they had no escape.

With a single command from Du You, Xiaozi in the sky began the final cleanup. After spending more than two hours, Du You and the sisters had cleared the entire basin, ensuring no live Giants remained.

"Not bad, this treasure chest is tier four; I’m curious to see what’s inside," Du You said as he started opening the chest.

"This luck, I really don’t know what to say... It’s a map of the Flame Giant camp," he remarked.

The map was tier four, but it was not applicable. "Could sell it to someone else," suggested Lin Yucha.

Du You shook his head, "Other territories have already established their basic structures, this Flame Giant camp needs a Giant civilian base to perform at its best, whereas our academy’s camp is based on human civilians."

Du You had no choice; he could forcibly use it, but then he would have to capture Giants for training if he wanted to recruit military units. Paying for all of it himself was too expensive.

Moreover, territories not corresponding to their foundations would also see a reduction in recruitment numbers.

This was not an animal-type structure, virtually the same no matter which territory it’s built on. Now it seemed, this valuable item could only be set aside for now, perhaps in the future it could be sold as a part of a set to someone else.

In each territory, only one foundational species could be used, having chosen humans, they cannot simply add Giants, that’s the rule. Du You’s own territory also chose humans, he had no other species to choose from.

After packing everything away, Du You began to open the sphere. Needless to say, after Earth Will joined in, the drop rate had indeed significantly increased. But whether the dropped items were suitable or not, that was uncertain.

Flaming Giant Shield: Defense 35+35, Resistance 35+35, Fire Resistance 39, increased weight, increased stability, not easy to be knocked back. Includes the active skill ’Guardian of the Mountains,’ activating it doubles the defense and increases the defensive range tenfold, triggers flame retaliation when attacked, lasts 5 minutes, with a 1-hour cooldown. (Deep Yellow)

"This Giant Shield is perfect for a tank Warrior, not quite compatible with us," mused Du You.

A good item indeed, but it was useless if it didn’t fit. Noting the sisters’ point, Du You nodded, "You’re right, we’ll have to sell it. Wait, such a great item, let’s hold onto it and see if it can be exchanged for something else."

With such a high drop rate here, it didn’t mean others didn’t have suitable items in their possession. If they didn’t want Crystal Coins and preferred an exchange, you can’t be without something to offer.

And Du You believed that others probably felt the same as he did. Needless to say, if a Shield Warrior wielded this shield, even Du You would find it quite difficult to fight against it.

Unfortunately, aside from the shield, there were no more notable items, just a few pieces of ordinary equipment.
