Chapter 117
Chapter 117 – Death Mantis
When the MC goes out, he meets two divine beasts fighting over a treasure. In the end, both divine beasts die in battle and the MC gains the treasure easily alongside all the materials from the two divine beasts.
That was what would appear in a story. Fatty did not have such fortune. Contrary to that, he was actually running away as fast as he could to put the maximum distance between him and the five monsters.
Those monsters were way too powerful. They had already cleared away over a few tens of thousands of mob monsters in mere minutes. After that, they had begun their battle. It definitely a battle of the ages that shook heaven and earth. Fatty felt like he was going to get killed just by the residue impact from the battle if he stayed even a bit closer.
Fine, let’s move further away.
Fatty retreated with Wheat again and again until finally stopping when he was no longer able to see what was going on on the island.
The pterosaur’s howl, the boa’s shriek, the toad’s wail echoed through the air. Fatty gasped. Even the Flame Ruler seemed like a small fry compared to these monsters.
"Wheat, who do you think will win?" Fatty tried to make conversation. However, Wheat merely glanced at him before going back to ignoring him.
"You’re a mid-ranked yao, why the heck are you so useless?" Fatty started to complain again.
This time, Wheat responded by shrinking itself and burrowing into the ground.
"Are you kidding me!?" Fatty was utterly speechless.
Fatty was unable to see the actual situation of the battle. The only thing he could see was the pterosaur circling in the sky, occasionally diving down, before flying back up again.
Even after three hours, the battle showed no hint of slowing down. Instead, it only became more and more intense. Some impacts of the fight could not be seen near Fatty. He could only smile wryly after hastily dodging away from a snapped tree. He did not hesitant any longer and retreated further with Wheat.
The monsters were far too powerful. Fatty did not even have a chance to enter the battlefield, so trying to get something out of it was unthinkable. He might have been able to join in if he reached Level 60, but retreating was the right choice now. After all, he could get a class enhancement mission in any of the four major cities, he didn’t actually have to risk his life to get the Dragon Revolution Herb.
Fatty was definitely willing to lose a level or even ten levels to get the Dragon Revolution Herb, an item such powerful monsters were fighting over, since he could still respawn in-game. However, Fatty going over now was just seeking death. A person should not be overly greedy, he should know his place.
Initially, Fatty had hoped that the monsters only met by chance and didn’t come for the Dragon Revolution Herb, since that would mean that he still had a chance to complete the mission. However, that no longer mattered. Such a battle was clearly going to leave the island emptied of everything.
What a shame about those drops under water. Fatty felt his heart clench when he thought about how all those items were going to time out and disappear.
Fatty really felt annoyed that he basically came over for nothing, so he naturally wasn’t happy with any monsters in front of him either. So he did what any sane person would do. He killed every single one in his path.
Die! Die! Die! Fatty muttered in his mind. All the powerful monsters were attracted by the Dragon Revolution Herb, so Fatty’s level of 31 was enough to let him stomp on everything that remained. He let out all his frustration onto the monsters and while doing so, he did get a few decent item drops that brightened his mood.
Yet, Fatty’s slaughter did not go on forever. A large mantis-like monster around six to seven meters long stood in his path. It was covered in a thick armor with green wings with arms like two razor-sharp scythes.
