Chapter 123: Martial Aunt Elga learns her lesson (1)

Martial Aunt Elga’s skydiving journey was epic. Her descend was even more so.

She landed on an uncharted game map where Tier 2 (50–100 level) monsters were located, and the moment her foot touched the ground, dozens of one-meter poisonous wasps surrounded her.

Martial Aunt Elga, shrieking from the sight of numerous stingers with poisonous tips trying to poke her into a porcupine, dashed with all her speed while hacking like there’s no tomorrow, searching for a way back to the Fake Old Witch’s Castle, and this was the start of her wonderful journey.

She discovered a beastly world of which she wasn’t aware. From a den of gigantic boas to a clan of man-eating one-eyed cyclops, from a school of flying fishes to colossal two-headed gorillas wearing tutus, her view of the current world broadened again and again.

Equip with her single battle axe and her passionate slogan of ’Fake Old Witch, you’ll taste my fury someday’, Martial Aunt experienced the most exciting tour of her life.

The ’hospitable’ monsters chased this unexpected visitor, making Martial Aunt let out endless screams out of ’joy’. The other side relentlessly chasing her also joined her in a duet with their ear-splitting growls and snarls, creating the first ever concert in the history of the Main Game World.

Elga navigated her way through the treacherous path, and by grace, after the tiring hours, she found a way back to Newbie Mountain 27, but she ended up having a problem.

----

At the same time Martial Aunt Elga had lured the Big Bull to Li Chunhua, a screen appeared in front of all the players designated in Newbie Mountain No. 27.

[System Notification: Boss Kill Mission is released.]

[Attention all players of Newbie Mountain No. 27: Due to an unforeseen event, a Tier 2 boss named Four-horned Hellfire Bull is running amok on the mountain. Players are encouraged to join the event and slay the boss. Failure to do so will result in heavy consequences.]

The players had mixed feelings of greed, fear, anxiety, and excitement seeing the prompt and rewards, but all became aligned when the system provided the information and holographic image of the boss.

The brains of the players, including Li Chunhua, the four boxer boys, and Long Haoran, stopped working when they saw the HP.

34...34,000 HP?!

And 2457 Defense?!

(⊙_☉)?

Each of the players from different parts of the mountain did one thing: check their two-digit strength. Expressions of despair were written on their faces.

(￣ ￣|||)

The worst thing was its skill. If they get hit just once, then don’t they have to say bye-bye forever?

How system? How? Just how! How are we able to kill it?

[System Notification: The location of the boss is sent to every player. Temporary real-time radar is opened.]

A 3-D virtual map appeared in front of them, containing the terrain of the whole mountain and the red dot with a label of the boss’ name.

The players, together with their natives, who were currently within half a kilometer of the boss’ path, stopped what they were doing, packed their belongings, and abandoned their territories.

Those that are more than 500 meters away either inquired in the global chat about the others’ situations or discussed with their people what to do. Some people saw the boss and had a chance to take photos of him.

Although they were vague due to the distance, the mere size of its blurry figure, taller the trees, enveloped the whole world in gloom.

[Director Niu]: How high are those trees?

[The Geek]: I’ve seen that type of tree in my area. They should be around 15 to 20 meters.

The players gulped, imagining its colossal size.

The boss bellowed a loud, piercing ’moo’. This sound echoed within a mile, and the ones who heard it shivered, especially Li Chunhua’s group.

The boss’ hooves emitted red flames, burning the grasses and trees as it used the firestorm charge skill, reducing the distance on both sides to two hundred meters, exposing its huge figure, and draining the blood off their faces.

A particular smoky scent drifted under Li Chunhua’s nose, making her take numerous sniffs.

Long Haoran crawled out of the hole and quickly spoke to Li Chunhua, "We better get out of here." His eyes shifted from the woman to the burning forest.

The fire will spread out, and they will be suffocated due to the lack of oxygen if they stay. As for defeating it, he was a realistic person who knew the boundaries between dreams and realities.

"You’re right!" Li Chunhua recovered from her foodie thoughts and stormed off, leaving the boxer boys and Long Haoran.

Long Haoran watched the gang leader’s disappearance in a daze. Is it too late to hitch a ride? This time, he doesn’t mind the vomiting-inducing trip.

눈_눈 Guess, he’s on his own.

(A/N: Little Baozi, you forgot someone.

Little Baozi: Oh...Oh...Chef!)

(Little Baozi: Thank you for the 17 golden tickets Mahesvar4.(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧)
