Chapter 622

~9 min read 1,697 words

The giant wooden club smashed into the ground, and the ground exploded into a large pit as if explosives had been buried there. The One-Eyed Giant's right leg ligament had been severed, which made its center of gravity unstable, and its entire body leaned against the energy shield.

Su Xiao suddenly withdrew the energy shield, and the One-Eyed Giant's massive body fell toward him.

"Ring Slash."

Blue light flashed, and a ring-shaped blade aura spread out. The blade aura appeared in front of the One-Eyed Giant's throat.

The One-Eyed Giant was already rushing forward, and combined with the incoming slash, its throat was directly cut open by one-third.

It must be said that the One-Eyed Giant's vitality was very tenacious; even though its throat was cut open and blood sprayed several meters away, it was still full of life.

The One-Eyed Giant covered its throat with one hand, intending to stand up. Its speed was not fast to begin with, and combined with the bullet holes all over its body, it was even slower.

At this moment, Su Xiao was not feeling well either. He had taken the One-Eyed Giant's club strike head-on; although he had the energy shield to block it, the impact had also injured him quite severely.

A faint, fishy sweet taste appeared in his mouth. Ignoring his aching internal organs, he charged forward with his blade.

He took a few strides and rushed in front of the One-Eyed Giant. At this time, the One-Eyed Giant was supporting itself on the ground with one hand, preparing to stand up.

Su Xiao held the blade with both hands, the Qing Gang Ying energy added to it looking somewhat dazzling, and he aimed a slash at that thick arm.

Puchi, the One-Eyed Giant's thick arm was severed, and its massive body crashed down with a boom.

After falling to the ground, fear appeared in the One-Eyed Giant's eyes, and that single eye widened. Just as it intended to struggle, its neck went numb, and then its entire body lost sensation.

Fear enveloped this giant monster. It recalled its experiences when it was weak, and tears actually appeared in that single eye.

A figure appeared before its eyes. The One-Eyed Giant recognized this human; it was this human who had slashed and injured it.

"Spare... me (Dark Continent language)."

"Oh? So this thing can beg for mercy too."

This was the last sentence the One-Eyed Giant heard. A long blade pierced into its mouth, directly penetrating its brain.

【You have killed the Lord-level creature: One-Eyed Giant.】

【Detected that the Hunter has killed a Leader-level creature for the first time. Reward: 5000 Paradise Coins + Soul Crystal (Small) x3.】

【The One-Eyed Giant is a Lord-level creature. Obtained 13.5% of the World's Source. Total World's Source obtained: 13.5%.】

【Your talent 'Soul Eater' has been activated. Permanently increased Mana by 15 points. Current Mana: 1658 points.】

A pale gold treasure chest fell to the ground. Its brilliant color was captivating, and the Qiyuezhe around the basin swallowed their saliva one after another.

Most of the Qiyuezhe had dull expressions, seemingly unable to believe the scene before them. The One-Eyed Giant had actually been soloed! This intimidated the Qiyuezhe present, and among the thirty-plus Qiyuezhe, no one dared to show their face.

Although soloing the One-Eyed Giant seemed exaggerated, the difficulty involved was not high.

If the One-Eyed Giant had been in its prime state, given its size, Su Xiao could not have won steadily. But among the ten shots fired earlier, three had hit the One-Eyed Giant's joints, which caused the One-Eyed Giant's melee ability to weaken significantly, leaving large openings when attacking.

After pulling Checking Zhan Long Shan out of the One-Eyed Giant's brain and wiping it clean, he picked up the pale gold treasure chest on the ground. This chest was different from the one dropped by Kakashi.

【Lord Treasure Chest (Pale Gold)】

Undoubtedly, the value of this item was very high, especially when enjoyed exclusively.

Looking around, he could feel pairs of greedy eyes.

"Come and grab it if you have the guts."

As Su Xiao spoke, he put the treasure chest into his storage space, used the Boundary Line to wrap around the One-Eyed Giant's corpse, and dragged the corpse out of the basin.

Do not underestimate this corpse. The One-Eyed Giant came from the Dark Continent. For the people of the six continents, everything about the Dark Continent was too mysterious. This corpse had high value whether for collection or research.

On a hillside two kilometers away, the blue-haired girl with long braids, Vinnie, was lying in a patch of wild grass, holding binoculars.

"So this guy can use a sniper rifle too. Looking at the appearance, the caliber doesn't exceed 20mm. Not to my taste; only a sniper cannon is romantic."

Vinnie considered for a moment and ultimately chose not to set up her gun.

On a hillside half a kilometer away from Su Xiao, several timid figures were lying on the slope. These five people were the ones who had prepared to ambush Su Xiao earlier, commonly known as the "Death-Seeking Squad."

At this moment, the five were covered in cold sweat, and three of them were whispering about something.

"Big Brother, what do we do? It's that guy."

"How about we retreat? We can't just go up and throw our lives away, Big Brother."

"En, Second Brother and Third Brother are right."

"Alright then, we retreat. But Big Brother, won't it be very shameful to retreat like this? How about we strike a pose before retreating?"

"Second Brother, good idea."

"Good your mother! We almost got hacked to death last time we struck a pose at the Judicial Tower, have you forgotten?"

The content of the three's conversation made the two people beside them twitch their mouths. That's right, this trio of idiots was the National Football Brothers.

The eldest liked to strike poses, the second's catchphrase was "Big Brother is right," and as for the third... let's just say he was a straightforward person, the kind that was a bit silly.

"Big Brother, in an occasion like this, I feel uncomfortable if I don't strike a pose!"

"Then... strike one? Anyway, there are many people here, and that pervert is dragging a monster corpse, so he shouldn't chase us."

"Go!"

Hearing the above conversation, the other two members of the Death-Seeking Squad were dumbfounded.

"National Football, what are you three doing?"

These two were also a pair, but they were a pair of "bros," and their level of idiocy was comparable to the National Football Brothers.

"We are going to do something big!"

The third brother glanced at the two bros and gave a contemptuous smile. If anyone else had shown this expression, it would make people feel despised, but the third brother was different; his contemptuous smile looked silly no matter how you looked at it.

"Do you guys know that guy?"

The two bros were still eyeing the treasure chest.

"We've fought once, and my Big Brother was beaten until he shat..."

The straightforward third brother had just started speaking when his Big Brother hurriedly covered his mouth.

"A draw, a draw..."

The National Football eldest kicked the third brother hard, and the third brother scratched the back of his head with an innocent face.

Su Xiao dragged the One-Eyed Giant's corpse to the top of the basin, and the Qiyuezhe around vaguely formed a surrounding formation.

Although the number of Qiyuezhe was not small, they were all lone wolves, and no one wanted to be the first to stick their neck out. The situation remained deadlocked like this.

They were unwilling to let Su Xiao leave, but no one wanted to lead the charge to stop him. They had all seen Su Xiao hack and kill a Leader-level creature; it was truly bloody and clean. Being the first to go up was just throwing one's life away.

A mechanical eye the size of a dragon's eye floated in mid-air, scouting the positions of the Qiyuezhe clearly. Su Xiao signaled Xiang Bubu Wang to move closer to him.

"One. Two, three..."

Su Xiao roughly observed the number of Qiyuezhe: 37 in total, almost completely surrounding the area. There were three suitable directions for a breakout.

"Xiang Bubu, get ready."

Su Xiao held Checking Zhan Long Shan, slashed off the One-Eyed Giant's head with one blow, carried the head, and flipped onto Xiang Bubu Wang's back. Xiang Bubu Wang took off running, running exceptionally happily.

Just at this moment, three people darted out from a nearby hillside. Seeing these three, Su Xiao was stunned. Weren't these the "Hammer Trio" National Football brothers who could fight, tank, and heal?

Standing on the hillside, the National Football eldest looked at Su Xiao from afar, seemingly a bit intimidated, but he had calculated this distance.

"Long time no see, we are..."

The National Football brothers had just wanted to strike a pose when a whistling sound of wind breaking came.

Bang, a bullet entered the National Football second brother's chest, and he was sent flipping several times.

"It's that blue-haired flat-chested woman! She's also in the Hunter World. Brothers, retreat!"

The National Football eldest roared, grabbed the third brother's hair with one hand, and grabbed the second brother's belt with the other. Light flashed beneath his feet.

"Hey, Big Brother, wait, you aren't going to use that, are you? Grab me somewhere else... Ow!!"

With a whoosh, the three National Football brothers turned into a blur and disappeared, running faster than rabbits. However, the nearby Qiyuezhe vaguely heard the third brother's miserable scream; they didn't know if they had heard wrong.

Vinnie in the distance saw this scene through her scope, her teeth itching with anger.

This sudden turn of events attracted the attention of most of the Qiyuezhe, while Su Xiao had already ridden Xiang Bubu Wang for a strategic retreat, running very far away.

"Chase, don't let him run."

"Kill this loser, the pale gold treasure chest goes to whoever is fated to have it."

This time, all the Qiyuezhe showed amazing unity and chased after him in a massive group.
