Chapter 196: Gilian’s Identity

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios!

Thana Great Forest, this beautiful, rich, dreamy and fresh place filled with various species where Elves were forbidden to eat meat no matter what. Today, it finally allowed this big guy to have a taste of meat.

The Experimental Monster shook the muscle lumps on its whole body, the small head that was clamped by the muscles could not wait and gulped down pieces of raw meat one after the other. The friction sounds that could be heard from its throat, causing shivers to run down one’s spine. Lin Jie threw another piece of Raptor meat and slowly attracted the binge-eating Experimental Monster.

The place Lin Jie was at was the tent of the Night Sentinels and Night Sentries! Lin Jie continued taking out large amounts of raw meat and stuffed it right below the tent, the pungent smell of blood filled the forest, attracting the still starving Experimental Monster.

AWU—AWU—

The raw meat that would appear in his line of sight with every step suddenly stopped, that made the monster with the already low IQ scratch its head. All of a sudden, the enticing smell of blood surrounded the tip of its nose. The monster flipped open the tent with one hand, and the tent that was almost impossible to raise as it had been enhanced with magic was thrown high up in the sky. Then, the Experimental Monster swallowed the raw meat in one mouthful.

“Gather!” The Night Sentinels resting in the tent were alarmed and with an order, all the Night Sentries and Night Sentinels surrounded the Experimental Monster, not daring to make a rash move first!

Meanwhile, at that moment, Lin Jie, who hid at one side, threw a piece of raw meat towards the crowd of people.

The Experimental Monster raised its head high up and charged towards the trajectory line of the raw meat which was projected to land in the crowd of people! Its giant fist smashed a few deep holes on the ground, then it leaped high up and crashed into the crowd with a boom!

“Attack!”

“Attack! Kill that idiot without a brain!”

The Night Sentinels could not take the monster’s slaughter anymore, no matter how much they avoided it previously, they also started attacking it.

The sentinels’ daggers instantly sliced open the thick and tough outer skin of the Experimental Monster, only dealing damage values of below 100—The defense of a level 34 Boss was too high! However, the sentinels’ poison still worked, the effect of reducing Attack Power also applied to Bosses, and with the intelligence of that Boss, it would be impossible for it to remove the poison.

Boom—

The Experimental Monster punched its fists vigorously, grabbing one Night Sentry in its hand, it then brutally smashed the Night Sentry to the ground, dealing 2,000+ damage! The shock wave spread in all four directions, dealing 1,500 points of splash damage to all single units surrounding it. The health points of the Night Sentinels simultaneously decreased by a portion.

Boom—

Enjoying the ecstasy of releasing its energy, the Experimental Monster would bring strong tremors with every attack, the tents shook and seemed to be on the verge of collapsing!

“It’s almost enough.” Lin Jie’s eyes flashed, and he threw all the raw meat that he had out. The Experimental Monster instantly gave up on the sentinels nearby and rushed towards the food.

When it appeared at the target position with violent shockwaves, an ear-piercing thud could be heard—it was heavily buried under the debris!

Lin Jie crawled into the wreckage and used his Thunderbolt Sword to pierce out a passageway that allowed a Longsword to attack, then he used Army Obliteration to pierce vigorously into the debris.

-988!

-544!

-551!

-1,023!

The muscle lumps were not grown on its whole body for nothing, Lin Jie’s every sword was like piercing into fat, which was full of suety. The blade of his sword cut through layers of thick dartos and had long lost its sharpness, part of the damage was nullified.

If that small head which could be obviously seen was pierced, weak point damage should be able to be dealt.

Lin Jie did not plan to let the Boss escape just to attack its weak point after spending so much time and efforts to make the Boss to be stuck. Lin Jie’s sword crazily slashed, and strings of damage values floated up from the tip of the wreckage.

“Attack!”

At that time, the Night Sentries gathered again, with an order, the whole sky was filled with javelins piercing down!

Lin Jie immediately jumped backward as up to a hundred javelins were pierced neatly inside the muscles of the Experimental Monster, bringing about huge waves of damage. Lin Jie took advantage of the attack interval and used Forward Charge to rush up beside it, and a set of complete combo landed on the Experimental Monster. He then immediately retreated when the sentries started attacking.

The health points of the Experimental Monster dropped to 5%, a horrifying blood-red was vaguely visible. Lin Jie’s pupils constricted, and he instantly retreated.

Boom—

The wreckage suddenly exploded, the Experimental Monster’s body had swelled up by two times its original size. It swung a piece of wood towards the Dark Sentries. The wood was swung with the vigor and vitality of a tiger and with a sweep, countless of sentries and sentinels died a violent death.

The roars of the Experimental Monster resounded in the whole camp, it swallowed the piece of wood in its hand, and its health points rapidly rose by 10%!

The sentries continued using long-ranged javelins to attack and continued reducing its health points. The Experimental Monster felt that its body had recovered some attributes, and it then vigorously pounced on the camp ruins and gnawed a big piece of decayed wood. Its health points regen by 20%, then it charged into the Night Sentinels, slaughtering to its heart’s content.

Looking at the Experimental Monster that went crazy in front of him, Lin Jie pulled his Broken Blade out. The Experimental Monster could recover 3% to 6% of health points by devouring decayed wood, if it started devouring thriving lush trees, most probably it could recover 30% health points in one shot! He must kill it as quickly as possible!

“My hometown…”

“Goodbye, my old friends.”

Night Sentinels were all killed by the Experimental Monster, the Experimental Monster’s health points also decreased to 10%. The Boss swallowed a Night Sentinel’s corpse but spat it out with its mouth full of saliva. Devouring corpses could not regen health points for it.

Its obviously lacking in IQ head looked around blankly and suddenly aimed at a big fresh tree, happily heading towards it.

Lin Jie’s eyes darkened, he gulped down the Enrage Potion, activated Flame Boost and Wind Rider Blade Aura Executioner, and his attack rapidly increased!

Hunter’s Forward Charge!

Army Obliteration!

-1,281! (Critical Hit!)

-1,193! (Critical Hit!)

-1,202! (Critical Hit!)

-1,123! (Critical Hit!)

Blood Light Multi-Slash!

-7,532! (Critical Hit)

-7,684! (Critical Hit)

The consecutive six Critical Hit numbers popped out!

Dong—

The Experimental Monster heavily knelt on the ground and fell down. Before it died, it was still slobbering and seemed to be still starving.

Ding~

—”You killed Failed Experimental Monster, you received 1,150,000 EXP and 500 City of Elves reputation.”

The Experimental Monster was not a World Boss, it did not even have its name.

Lin Jie’s experience bar rose by 14%. Lin Jie heaved a sigh of relief and went to pick up the items from the corpse. Killing a Boss higher by 12 levels, there had to be a few good items to be dropped, right?

Ding~

—”You received [Experiment Log] 2.”

—”You received [Experiment Log] 2.”

—”You received [Experiment Log] 2.”

“WTF…” Lin Jie was exasperated. There was quite the number of villains in the Thana Great Forest, they were always fired with enthusiasm in using Night Elves, these type of living creatures that naturally had a strong physique and long lifespan.

After gathering the Experiment Logs 1 to 10, one could directly exchange them for 1,000,000 EXP, it was considerably valuable.

Of course, as the “King of Unluckiness”, Lin Jie did not hope to be able to gather a whole set.

Although his luck was a little bad, his Secret Techniques of Clomaros had an obvious change! Lin Jie’s irritation flew away.

The Secret Techniques of Clomaros had a transformation, the human figure gradually disappeared, what replaced it was a… Map? As though drawn by the most simple and crude pencil, a pattern that was like a steamed bread was drawn, the dense lines forming a maze.

Was it a map clue?

Lin Jie pulled out the City of Elves map and carefully compared, trying to find clues.

At that time, Gilian tiptoed and took a look. In just half a second, she tapped her exquisite chin and said, “I think I remember this place.”

“Oh?” Lin Jie was elated.

“Follow me.” Gilian led the way and brought Lin Jie deeper into the forest.

Lin Jie probed by taking out bread and water, then he asked, “Do you need these?”

Gilian sized up Lin Jie and nodded her head seriously, “I need them.”

Looking at Gilian recovering her condition by eating the food, Lin Jie stood up straight with his arms crossed, but in his head he was quickly thinking, Gilian was willing to recover her condition, that meant she at least entered the battle mode. In other words, they needed to fight in the place they were going to later on. It was even a battle that he himself could not win, that’s why the system arranged such a character to help.

However… Everything was suspicious! For example that Failed Experimental Monster, the players’ corpses that disappeared, or the trick that Gilian used to wipe out the Butterfly Monsters in one shot.

Suddenly, an idea formed in Lin Jie’s head—That Experimental Monster, was it possible that it was created by Gillian?

Lin Jie was shocked by his own thoughts, but he immediately calmed down. If supposedly that conjecture was correct, then the created Experimental Monster was one of the steps to activate the mission? Then, why didn’t she summon the Experimental Monster right from the start?

“Those few players…” Lin Jie’s eyes flashed, maybe he needed to kill players first?

‘Wait…’

Lin Jie took a look at the Secret Techniques of Clomaros, if his guess was correct, then didn’t it mean that Gilian could change the mission flow? Or could she make use of the Secret technique of Clomaros?

Then what exactly was her identity?
