Chapter 1373 - 859: Covetous Gold Serpent (2)

This is a typical Sain Dungeon monster, which injures with a touch and kills upon contact, and it isn't as agile as the Black Knight.

In an instant, upon realizing this information, Tami's footsteps flickered swiftly, surprisingly splitting into three silhouettes—some kind of combat skill resembling a clone technique. The three clones attacked the giant slave from different directions, but only one clone was real and only that one had genuine attack power.

The giant slave's throat emitted a beast-like roar, raising his hand to grab a metal ball as big as his head and smashed it towards the front clone, only to discover unexpectedly that it was fake. Before he could continue attacking, a sharp pain spread across his back.

Tami slashed upon its back, leaving a terrifying wound deep enough to cut an average person in half, with thick fluid spraying from the wound instantly.

"Tch, the muscles are too hard; this strike couldn't sever the spine."

Tami kicked off the giant's back, executing a backward flip to widen the distance. As soon as he raised his head, he saw the frenzied giant slave grabbing a barrel of oil and throwing it over, each explosion fearing it might exceed several Flame Pots.

Immediately, he drew a small dagger from his waist, and just as the oil barrels were about to fall beside him, his entire figure vanished instantly, leaving behind only a cloud of dust stirred by high-speed movement.

[Hound Step]!

"Boom boom boom!"

Continuous explosions erupted where the barrels fell. Tami dashed out of the fiery zone, using the burning liquid on the ground to enchant his Longsword with flame.

"Roar!"

As he approached, the giant slave picked up the largest Fireball as a weapon, frantically smashing it in front of him with immense force that raised concern over the roof's stability.

Indeed, an immensely strong yet terribly slow giant slave, for once Sain Dungeon didn't pull a surprise.

Each time the metal ball crashed down, Tami's figure flickered, performing perfect evasions, only to face an explosive smash again a moment later.

Despite this seemingly manic assault, his body appeared as though walking a straight line, heading directly towards the giant slave.

Such scenarios, where the attacker can see the opponent but their attacks are entirely ineffective, are best at disrupting the attacker's mindset, especially when the attack possesses even basic intelligence.

Tami reached in front of the giant slave, where the ground beneath was already full of depressions from the pounding, with the bottom of the metal ball inevitably cracked.

He stood firmly before the giant slave, who, despite wearing a completely obscured dilapidated hood, could sense the fear-laden gaze emanating from beneath it.

I've trained myself this strong for today...

Tami couldn't help feeling a surge of dark satisfaction and pride, sheathing his sword and drawing it out again at ultra-high speed, executing a somewhat inappropriate Sword Drawing Slash with the Longsword.

Shortly after.

"I'm back with vengeance! Which bastard threw that metal ball? Watch me blow them to smithereens!"

Luluwo's wrathful voice echoed from the doorway, with a hint of Berto's voice advising her not to get angry.

"Captain? You all took quite a long time to come up." Tami turned back to look, his body stiffening slightly. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Luluwo's face was blackened and scorched from the flames, looking like she had rolled out of a coal mine; far from the ultra-skilled adventurer indeed, resembling more like a laborer.

I mustn't laugh, if I do, the Captain will hold a grudge.

Tami hurriedly covered his mouth.

Seeing Tami, Luluwo paused, extending her finger towards him, saying: "What is your situation?"

Before her eyes unfolded an unforeseen scene—a giant slave riddled with wounds, voluntarily bowing down in surrender, its body still bleeding from several fresh injuries.

"This guy just threw that Fireball, and I came up to give it a beating." Tami shrugged, saying: "It's my first time seeing a monster surrender like that, ah, in this Sain Dungeon."

"How amazing," Berto clicked his tongue and circled around the giant slave. "So, has anything special happened?"

"Speaking of special things... perhaps it's this."

The group followed Tami's pointing gesture, seeing the giant slave on the ground holding a wooden plaque, carved with unreadable text.

Just then, magic words from the Sain Dungeon glimmered on the surface of the plaque.

[The Giant required by the Hero's Trial, mercy is advised. Heroes who have reached this place may proceed to the final trial—Yanor Londo.]

Luluwo stared at the plaque for a while before blurting out.

"Is this some kind of civil servant?"

It turned out that this giant slave has a post, and seemingly it's under Yanor Londo.

"Why are those Snake-men below easily slain, but this giant slave can't be killed because there are fewer giants?"

Luluwo's previous intense murderous intent had turned into sarcastic energy, her mental state stabilizing.

Seeing that the group didn't harbor feelings to kill it, the giant slave moved and fetched two purple light points from somewhere, placing them before itself.

"Hey, knows how to pay protection fees, how savvy you are, young man."

Luluwo grabbed the light points, leaving Tami nearby to mock the giant's age likely exceeds theirs combined.

[Nameless Embers]

[Embers left by a nameless craftsman, faintly warm, containing information only comprehensible to fellow craftsmen.]

[Hand it over to other craftsmen, perhaps elevating their skills further.]

Upon seeing this item, Luluwo first thought of Blacksmith Andre; apart from him, no other optimal choices came to mind... or Shigu from the Round Table Hall?

She's more inclined to foster goodwill with Andre, immediately deciding to hand this ember over to him later, conveniently close to the Sain Ancient City.

Another purple light point: a glittering golden ring with a peculiar design.

[Greedy Golden Snake Ring]

[Dragons devolved into serpents; a golden ring crafted in the image of a serpent enhances treasure-seeking ability, drawing treasures towards its wearer.]

[The serpent can swallow prey larger than itself, renowned for extreme greed; if dissatisfied with shackles imposed, sometimes it's compensated by satisfying such greed.]

Upon holding it, she felt the ring was extraordinary, and the detailed description astonished her even more.

A ring that attracts treasures!

"Does it mean we're going to strike it rich?" Luluwo caressed the ring, eyes sparkling.

"We're already financially free from selling guides, aren't we, Captain?" Tami retorted.

"Don't ruin the atmosphere I'm trying to create; wealth knows no bounds!"

Luluwo scoffed, discussing briefly with the two, deciding to keep the ring until returning to distribute rights among those unable to climb.

Her character wouldn't allow private appropriation of the ring, not to mention Tami and the others are filled with righteous fervor.

"Captain, look over there."

Berto's voice suddenly came from nearby, standing at the city wall, gazing into the distance, his expression seemed serious.

Following his pointing, their sights directed towards the opposite end of the Sain Ancient City's top layer, still some distance away from them.

There, silently stood a giant puppet crafted of steel on a path not considered wide.

"That guy seems to be the boss, indeed."

Luluwo could feel the oppressive aura emanating from it.

At that moment, the steel giant puppet suddenly started to move, its greatsword detached from its hand.

Like a cannonball, it blasted towards the city wall where the group stood!
