God-level Hero

Beijing Time, 9:30 PM. After half an hour of clearing, Da Fei had eliminated all the Demon Bone Earth Dragons in Rift Valley Forest, totaling 33 kills and obtaining 33 units of Bone Stone Ore. There was no further activity after that.

This result was obviously not very satisfactory to Da Fei. The Dark Natural Power here was so dense, it must have underlying content, but these thirty-something ordinary Earth Dragons clearly couldn’t reflect that. Besides, just like the Mushroom Forest, the last forest had a Bat Army Boss, so there should be a BOSS here too.

Da Fei thought of Elena’s "Earthquake Transmitter" that she used by the river at that time to search for her Dark Elf kin. She said then that this skill was very dangerous, easily attracting powerful underground creatures. There’s nothing to say, now is the moment to summon the powerhouse.

Da Fei summoned Elena off the ship, "Miss Elena, this won’t affect the Mushroom Garden, right?"

Elena laughed, "With Mr. Morasan’s assistance, there’s no problem. Although he doesn’t know much about mushrooms, his planting experience with gardens should be universal."

Da Fei nodded, "Good, then continue using the Earthquake Skill, try to summon the hidden monsters." And then ordered Tamilia, "Once a crisis emerges, immediately place a Space Gate beside Elena."

"Got it!" "Received."

Elena immediately began drawing an array on the ground, while Da Fei hurried to sit down and meditate to recover mana. The biggest flaw of the Divine Skill was its huge blue consumption; maintaining 1 second costs 100 mana, making Da Fei’s 360 extra knowledge 3600 mana, plus Ann Su Totem’s over a thousand mana completely unsupportable. But no worries, Da Fei’s Light Tears also had more than ten thousand mana in reserve while idling, should be able to withstand if encountering a big BOSS, right?

As Elena’s Earthquake Skill initiated, layers of dust emitted from the ground of the ravine. Elena had said before, the shockwave of her communicative Earthquake Skill is different from ordinary earthquake waves, akin to infrasound, should not vibrate dust; now its situation proves Elena’s overwhelming magnitude.

A minute, five minutes, ten minutes! The situation remained unmoving as before.

Da Fei grew a bit restless, "Miss Elena, is there really none?"

Elena frowned, "Can’t be confirmed yet. Cannot rule out that the powerhouse is in a dormant state. Especially in food-scarce undergrounds, larger reptiles and dragon creatures have hibernation traits to conserve energy."

Da Fei became interested, "Then how long do giant dragons hibernate?"

Elena shook her head, "Hundreds to thousands of years are normal. Last time, the Hydra you killed had hibernated for a thousand years. And in the dark elves’ legends, there’s a dark elf city built hundreds of years ago actually built atop a Dragon Cave, leading to the catastrophe of city destruction when the dragon awakened."

Da Fei nodded, "I see!" In the end, dormant giant dragons should be considered hidden BOSS types, right? Fine, discovering hidden BOSS is also a skill.

Another 5 minutes passed, Elena had exhausted her mana, and the radar still showed no activity.

Da Fei’s patience also began to wear thin, "Is there really none at all?"

Elena shook her head with a sigh, "I don’t know. Maybe not, or maybe the other side woke but didn’t care."

Da Fei was startled, "Didn’t care?"

Elena sighed, "Yes, like beasts would ignore worms crawling all over them, some dormant strong ones would automatically overlook anything that poses no threat. Especially powerful dragon clans, even lazier to move."

Da Fei’s brows twitched, things about dragon clans should be asked to dragons, right? Da Fei hurriedly summoned Savara and her mount Cindigosar, "What’s your take on this Earth Dragon?"

Cindigosar replied unimpressed, "What’s there to say?"

Savara frowned, "Not very clear."

Da Fei was shocked, "Even you dragon clans have things you don’t know?"

Cindigosar spoke disdainfully, "Just a lizard, how could it count as dragon clan!"

Savara coughed dryly, "Well, Master, these reptilian creatures, in the eyes of us dragons, are probably like monkeys in human eyes."

Da Fei coughed dryly, "There must be common points..."

Cindigosar: "None!"

Savara said seriously, "Greed! A primal greed for true treasures."

Was it because I didn’t bait enough? Da Fei’s brows twitched, "Do I need to use a Divine Artifact to lure it?"

Savara replied uncertainly, "Perhaps."

Just then, Elena spoke again, "Master, did you notice, with me casting for so long, not a single Earth Worm came over? Normally, with my casting this long, Earth Worms within a few kilometers should definitely respond."

Savara nodded, "Then there are only two possibilities, one, there are no Earth Worms around. Two, the surrounding Earth Worms dare not come. If it’s the second scenario, then it’s already confirmed, there’s an Earth Dragon powerhouse here, and other Earth Worms dare not infringe on its territory."

I see! Whether from my experience or information from the deputies, all signs indicate a hidden big BOSS is here! Not clearing the big BOSS is like the Japan region defeating a God-level instance without getting God-level rewards, what’s the point? How could I live up to my title as World Number One?

Da Fei asked, "So, what kind of treasure can we offer to lure this dormant powerhouse to make a move?"

Savara said sternly, "Without a doubt, the Divine Power Tree Root that you, sir, have obtained! If this dormant powerhouse is truly strong enough to ignore disruptions, then this Divine Power Tree Root is definitely what it wants!"

Ah, I see! It’s just like when I used the Divine Level Fragment to lure monsters at the World Window years ago; it worked every time. Right, I even threw a Fire Attribute fragment to that Magma Dragon, and it leapt into the volcano without looking back after eating it. How is that Magma Dragon doing now?

Da Fei shook his head to dispel his wandering thoughts and immediately ordered, "Tamilia, transport the Divine Power Tree Root to the surface. Once the monster appears, you must fly away immediately."

Savara added, "I suggest first digging a large pit on the surface, one that can fully accommodate the tree root. Then let those 8 priests continue casting spells to spread the Divine Power of the tree root, which will maximize the spread of Divine Power underground."

Da Fei nodded, "Makes sense!"

The next moment, the Holy Vine Space Gate opened on the surface, and the Sandworm Mining Car crawled out to start digging the pit. Once the pit was dug, several thick vine tendrils, glowing green, extended the tree root out of the Space Gate and placed it in the pit. However, the tendrils didn’t ’let go.’ That’s fine, it looks like fishing. Otherwise, if a crisis hits and there’s no time to retrieve it, it would be a huge loss.

Then 8 priests walked out from the Space Gate and began casting spells on the tree root. Suddenly, the green light of the tree root exploded, illuminating the entire dark and eerie Rift Valley.

Da Fei nodded, "Great, everyone else retreat back to the ship."

Miss Elena smiled and said, "My Mana has recovered a bit; I’ll keep harassing it."

"Alright!"

The bait operation began again, and this time Da Fei had invested significantly. Time ticked by second by second, and Da Fei’s heartbeat pounded with excitement. The feeling of confirming the enemy’s existence before fishing was entirely different!

Now comes the key question, how strong is this BOSS? Since they’re both guarding the Mushroom Forest, it shouldn’t be much stronger than that bat, right? Or is it as strong as the Volcano Dragon King we encountered back then? If it’s the latter, how could we even fight it?

At that moment, a blurred little red dot suddenly flickered and vanished on the radar!

Da Fei’s heart trembled! It’s here! But, why is the big BOSS just a little red dot? Why did it disappear in an instant?

Of course, because the opponent is an extraordinary powerhouse! In that instant, Da Fei immediately realized that a crisis was looming. A sense of urgency overtook him, and he ordered without hesitation, "Retreat! Gather the troops! Quickly!!!"

"Roger that!" Miss Elena and the 8 priests immediately stopped casting spells and quickly retreated into the nearby Holy Vine Space Gate, while the vine tendrils began hoisting the tree root back to the cabin!

At the moment the tree root was lifted off the ground, Da Fei’s radar suddenly showed a burst of red light, the entire ground of the Rift Valley shook fiercely, and Da Fei’s vision blurred as he lost balance and was about to fall!

Da Fei’s heart trembled greatly, it’s coming, what a mighty presence! In the process of falling, Da Fei instinctively activated the Great Positioning Technique!

The next moment, a torrent of dust roared upwards, engulfing the entire Rift Valley in a foggy haze! System Prompt clanged loud:

——System Prompt: You have been attacked by the Demon Bone Earth Dragon King! The Demon Bone Earth Dragon King has initiated a Demon Bone Dust Storm, in which all spells will be tremendously affected by Magic Powder and have a high chance of failing!

——System Prompt: Your Great Positioning Technique has been disrupted! You have entered a warped space!

——System Prompt: Your Flying’s teleportation has been disrupted! Teleportation failed!

Staring at the surrounding writhing darkness, Da Fei was instantly bewildered! What’s going on? Where is the warped space? Flying’s teleportation failed?!

In the next moment, the system prompt sounded again:

——System Prompt: Your Flying suffered a violent impact, your ’World Tree Divine Power Tree Root’ was seized by the Demon Bone Earth Dragon King!

Nani! Da Fei sat up in shock, nearly throwing his helmet off! In that instant, Da Fei’s mind went blank! Time seemed to stop at that moment!

Cold, a chill enveloped Da Fei’s body! Quiet, Da Fei couldn’t seem to feel his heartbeat! The battle lasted less than two seconds, and he hadn’t even seen what the BOSS looked like before suffering such a significant defeat; is this divine intervention?

A golden-green light suddenly illuminated Da Fei’s darkness, such a familiar light!

Da Fei immediately regained his senses and looked around, indeed, it was the light of the Divine Power Tree Root! That’s right, it was the tree root, entwined with broken vines!

At that moment, Da Fei finally realized where he was, inside the belly of the big BOSS! Both he and the tree root had been swallowed in one gulp, and this BOSS’s belly was the warped space! So how to get out?

Da Fei hurriedly checked his status, still under the Great Positioning Technique, but his Mana was rapidly depleting at 600 points per second. Doomed! Only Ann Su Totem’s more than a thousand Mana could sustain for two more seconds!

Ann Su Totem?

In that instant, Da Fei didn’t hesitate, directly activated the ultimate move—Ann Su’s Resurrection! (To be continued.
