Boss Monster Chat Group - Chapter 60

Chapter 60: Chapter 60 – Leg Hugging Kill

Su Mo was able to smoothly reach the blue cave he went to last time.

There were still no other players here; the deep hole restricted normal players’ ability to head onwards. In actuality, New World very much supported players using their imaginations to explore. They could go up mountains, go into seas, and could also dig holes.

Su Mo was somewhat spaced out.

He was still thinking about the special quest; a single quest had given him 40% of his EXP bar, which was simply shocking. It was reasonable to say that he should be satisfied, and he was, even though he had missed out on a Dark Gold grade equipment.

However, he just felt that Baron Bary’s death was very suspicious.

If this was a special quest, what was special about it?

A missing servant was the trigger, leading to a discovery that the Baron’s daughter had been stained by demon blood and become a man-eating monster. After going to make the Baron take responsibility, he had already committed suicide.

How could such a ridiculous story affect the situation in the entire continent? Apart from the people directly involved, no one else would care.

Since the situation was so unusual, there was definitely strange going on.

Butler Santos looked like a doddering old man and could not possibly be the final Boss. Count Dracula was like a classic noble who was afraid of making trouble; it was evident from the way Sorcerer Dier acted that they did not take these wild nobles seriously. Apart from this, there was nothing else.

New World’s quests were famed for being complicated. One could not purely analyze them from a gaming perspective, but sometimes they had to consider it as purely a game.

From a realistic standpoint, who would care about Baron Bary’s death?

Baron Bary was butler Santos’ employer and Count Dracula’s subordinate; those two people would both care. However, Su Mo did not know how much they cared or how much they would affect the storyline of the game.

Butler Santos was an old man, and even if he wanted to do anything, he would not have the power to do so.

However, Count Dracula was one of the so-called eight big shots of the Long Island Federation. Would he do anything extreme for Baron Bary?

Just what kind of extreme thing would qualify it as a special storyline?

Su Mo already had some guesses, but he had no idea that Baron Bary was not dead and that he and Dracula were part of the Vampire Clan from the legends.

After mining for a while, panda Qiuqiu successfully reached Level 15.

Su Mo excitedly looked at its new skill and felt as if he was struck by lightning.

[Leg Hugging Kill]: Level 1, Active Skill, Cooldown Time: 30 seconds, hugs a target’s leg and either stuns the target for three seconds or reduces their Movement Speed for five seconds. This skill ignores immunities and resistances, and it will be effective as long as the target has a leg.

It was undoubtedly a control-type skill.

Two defensive skills, one taunt skill, and one control skill—this was an exquisite tank that people could only dream of. Of course, if the panda baby could get a high-damage high-aggro skill, that would be even better.

But what was with ‘as long as the target has a leg’?

Did that mean Qiuqiu could use this on Bosses?

If that was the case, even though Leg Hugging Kill reduced the dignity of a divine beast, it would be acceptable.

Su Mo had Qiuqiu use Leg Hugging Kill on a scorpion. After Qiuqiu hugged the leg of the scorpion that was as big as a millstone, the threatening and savage scorpion immediately lost its battle power.

Su Mo fired two shots and found that because it had been hit by his attacks, it woke up.

So good!

This skill was incredibly powerful.

As expected of the descendant of a divine beast; it was much stronger than a certain trash Elite grade monster.

“Here, this is for you to eat. Don’t roll on the floor, my good little baby, the ground is dirty. Here, another one. And another.”

Su Mo, who originally could not bear to feed Qiuqiu the Blue Water Diamonds, started to take them out one after another. In the end, Su Mo took out a whole bunch. After all, these things could give the baby panda EXP, and Su Mo was eager for it to reach Level 20.

It was a pity that digesting took time.

Su Mo planned to leave the game for a bit to go to the toilet.

Players could leave whenever they wanted, but their character would be unable to move. When facing powerful enemies, their character would not be able to respond, and after dying, they would still lose EXP.

Most players would go to the toilet when they had party members looking after their character, and even though Su Mo did not have any team mates, he had his pets. The panda baby could already beat a Level 20 monster by itself, even though it was only Level 15.

After coming out from the shabby game cabin, Su Mo immediately saw Fu Jiafeng sitting with one leg over the other as he smoked a cigarette.

“Pass me one!” Su Mo stretched out his hand.

“Take one yourself.” Fu Jiafeng raised his chin. As someone who had been a part of gangs, he was not very stingy.

“Whew, Soft China? You’re eating egg fried rice but you’re smoking such good cigarettes,” Su Mo said in amazement.

“Heh heh, I’m different to you. I’m not as poor as you. It must be tough being you—you’re already ugly enough and used to be the son of a rich family, but now…”

Fu Jiafeng felt a bit sorry for Su Mo.

“…”

Since Fu Jiafeng had given him a cigarette, he decided to spare the boy.

“Hey, aren’t you here to chat? Where are you going?”

“The toilet!”

“Ah that’s right, you only take toilet breaks after a long time. Isn’t it uncomfortable?”

“My bladder is good!”

“If your bladder is good why didn’t your girlfriend want you anymore?”

“Fudge, Fu Jiafeng are you doing this on purpose? Is your skin getting itchy?”

After giving Fu Jiafeng a beating, Su Mo held the cigarette in his mouth as he felt refreshed and went to relieve himself.

After getting back to the game, he continued to mine. There was no need to level—tomorrow, he would continue to make trouble for the Dark Dryads. After leveling up, killing Dark Dryads would be even easier.

After mining for a while, he had gained ten or so Blue Water Diamonds. With the baby panda’s digestive abilities, this would last for at least two days.

“Big bro! Big bro!”

Su Mo found that Su Xiaojiu was quite annoying sometimes. Fortunately, he was planning to go back anyways, or he really would have ignored her.

“Are you streaming again?”

“That’s right. I’m at Talin; there are so many people here.”

“What do you need from me?”

“There’s a pet competition here, bring Qiuqiu quickly. Wow, there are so many cute pets.”

“Lil sis, your big brother is very busy!”

“There are prizes, lots and lots of prizes.”

“Lil sis, I’ll be right there.”

Su Mo packed his things and hurried to Talin. Before getting there, he found a place to give Qiuqiu a bath.

Talin was the Long Island Federation’s capital city, and it was where the legislative assembly was. Before the Long Island Federation had been established, this had been the Sartre Empire’s royal city. Back then, part of the Sartre Empire’s royal family had colluded with the Magicians to attack the Papacy.

When the Papacy and Magic Assembly had both suffered heavy losses, the royal family and nobles had declared their independence, creating the Long Island Federation that was free from the influence of the Magicians and Papacy.

Talin had not experienced much battle, but it was continuously being rebuilt. Talin was currently undoubtedly the biggest city in the Eastern Continent.

Su Mo came to the place where he had agreed to meet Su Xiaojiu, which was the central square, and there was indeed a big pet competition going on.

“Everyone, look, that’s my big brother. Isn’t he handsome?”

“Err, no way, he doesn’t look like a rubbish collector. My big brother’s equipment should be decent. He might have a skin and is just not using it…”
