Chapter 48 The Wise Giant
Chapter 48 The Wise Giant
"This panel... Boss, when are you going to give me a few more Enchantment Souls? I feel like my and Olya's combat strength is a bit too weak."
"Don't panic, I will provide you with reinforcements, but the timeframe will be extended. You can rely on luck to explain some problems, but if you are too lucky with me, it might leak out elsewhere."
To be honest, Altai's stats are indeed impressive, second only to the Warrior.
He, like the hero, is capable of breaking through the limits of stat allocation and the number of talents.
"Is it due to the unique nature of their profession, or is it that all pure-blooded giants can break through the maximum stat allocation?"
Caesar thought it was most likely the latter, because he knew that the difference between pure-blooded giants and royalty was not as great as imagined; both were beings capable of fighting dragons.
"Species that can be called legendary creatures may all be able to break through extreme values. Is it solely due to the strength of their bloodline, or something else?"
Caesar had the idea of analyzing the legendary bloodline, and even making a pact with Altai.
But after seeing the gift of the Giant God's Blessing, he had no choice but to put aside the idea of a slave contract.
"It needs to bleed, to die once in my dungeon, so I can get the complete data."
……
"Charge, Altai! Let me see the might of the giant royal family!"
Oliya stood on the shoulders of giants, issuing commands like a general.
The giant responded honestly and strode forward.
Undine and her twin brother struggled to keep up with the giant's pace.
"Undine, are you tired? Do you want to come up too? Altai's right shoulder is quite broad."
"Isn't this inappropriate?"
"It's alright, little guy. Giants should help little guys."
Altai didn't care. As long as they weren't in a fighting stance, giants were a more benevolent race than elves. They had a strange fondness for creatures smaller and weaker than themselves, much like how humans treat kittens and puppies.
"Alas, charge forth, Altai!"
After standing on the giant's shoulders, Undine was also infected, but the twin brothers suffered, almost falling off their feet from following behind the giant.
"You little guys are really funny, hahaha."
Altai let out a hearty laugh. The giant's intuition told him that the two men meant him no harm, nor did they seem to fear him like other creatures he had encountered.
Especially Olya, whose royal status didn't change her attitude at all, and now even the short Undine has been influenced by Olya.
He likes this feeling.
On their way to the treasure chest, they encountered many monsters, which Altai dealt with one by one with a single punch, almost without stopping.
Other adventurers, hearing the loud noise of their journey from afar, ran away, thinking it was some high-level monster.
Finally, after Altai leaped over a cliff with astonishing strength, they saw the outline of the treasure chest.
On a towering stone mountain a few kilometers away, a magnificent golden treasure chest gleamed.
An adventurer had already surrounded them, but no one rushed forward.
Because four fire demons, each the size of a small mountain, guarded the four sides of the treasure chest, and the heat emanating from their bodies was enough to incinerate mountains and boil seas.
Fortunately, there are very few anti-magic stones here. Although the gravity is a bit strong, adventurers can still absorb a little bit of magic from the air if they try hard.
It can probably store about half of my usual magic power; any more and I won't be able to compete with the anti-magic stone.
The four fire demons did not attack proactively, allowing the adventurers to observe and prepare.
Their heavy breathing carried sparks, and their sky-covering wings folded back, like a cloak formed from the darkness.
They stood in four directions, like four insurmountable mountains; just the look in their eyes was enough to make ordinary adventurers lose their will to fight.
"The guardian treasure chest requires four level 50 Flame Demons? Could this thing actually be the boss level treasure chest in the North Dungeon?"
Flame Demon
Class: Balrog (Trait: Fire affinity, master of flames)
Rating: 50
Life Points: 20000
Constitution: 80 (The higher the number of points, the greater the improvement)
Soul: 80 (The higher the score, the greater the boost)
Skill (Magic): Fire Magic Domination
Talent: Magic Affinity (lv6: Absorbs magic faster, circulates magic more smoothly)
Magic Manipulation (lv6: Able to manipulate magic more precisely)
Balrog's Body (lv6: Balrog's body is immune to most physical and fire elemental damage, and has almost immortal regeneration. As long as the flames remain, it is almost impossible to die. The only way to kill it is to seal or completely destroy the flame core.)
Transformation into Fire (lv6: In times of crisis, one can transform into a pure elemental form to escape, or absorb heat to enhance one's power; there is an upper limit)
Burning Heaven (lv6: Wrath of the Flame Demon, can briefly break through the rank at the cost of burning itself to ashes, and absorb the power of flames without limit before the body is completely burned away)
Status: Due to the rules, the player cannot attack adventurers proactively; attacks are only possible when adventurers are within two kilometers of the treasure chest.
Adventurers will disappear immediately after touching the treasure chest.
While other adventurers could only see barren lands with creatures at level 50, what Olivia and Undine saw was completely different.
After watching it, the same question popped into their minds: "Can humans defeat these four things?"
"Boss, have you really considered giving the reward to the adventurers?"
"Sure, why wouldn't we give it to you? It's just a little less difficult, how can it be called a challenge?"
As he spoke, Caesar gave an example: "You see, Altai didn't think that much about it."
The two looked down and saw the giant with an excited smile on his face, rubbing his hands together, eager to try.
"Altai, you don't want to go up alone, do you?"
"Of course not." Altai shook his head: "I definitely went with other adventurers. I've fought creatures like Balrogs before, and it's very difficult for me to fight against opponents ten levels higher than me."
"We giants are clueless about everything else, but when it comes to fighting, we're serious. How can we be reckless in battle?"
Altai patiently corrected the two women's stereotypes and made them jump off his shoulders.
"I'll go and persuade the adventurers right now to come up with a viable tactic, otherwise we'll definitely be wiped out by the Balrog."
Altai has already checked everything. Although there are a few level 50 adventurers here, their auras are not strong. In a real fight, they might not be as strong as Altai. Most of them are only level 30 or so, and some are even level 10 or so. They must have been lucky enough to be teleported to this location. Otherwise, they probably wouldn't have been able to get past the gravity barrier earlier and would have been crushed into mincemeat.
Altai acted swiftly and decisively. He seemed foolish, but in reality, he was wise beyond his years and could persuade an adventurer team to fight together in no time.
The reason was that he had explored similar dungeons before, and the only way out was to clear them; otherwise, he would only commit suicide.
Whether they actually fought or not, only God knows.
The adventurers just needed someone to step up and unite them, and Altai just happened to give them that reason.
