How to Kill When Your Family Owns a Mine

A Giant Swamp Octopus with nine tentacles, over ten meters long, its body was as white as bone, emitting an indescribable stench.

The canyon was very dark, and the size of the swamp was unknown.

The fact that such a colossal creature was hiding below truly startled Lotner and Burning Ash.

The aura of High-Class was so powerful it was suffocating.

Logically speaking, this kind of creature should have been documented.

Although the Legendary Continent is vast, various magical creatures have often been seen by people, and they have been recorded in the Monster Codex.

However, this Swamp Octopus, and many other creatures in the canyon, were completely unfamiliar to the two of them. For a moment, they thought of the many Dragon Beast they had seen.

It's natural to assume that these monsters are from the Mythic Era...

The moment the Giant Swamp Octopus appeared, three enormous tentacles slammed towards the two people, attempting to snatch up and eat their fast food.

Even the Swamp Octopus was puzzled; where did these two idiots come from?

Since its father or mother died of old age, it has lived on Storm Island for so many years. There are very few Surface Creatures falling into this canyon. Usually, it can only eat some big earthworms, big crabs, big spiders and the like to get by. But today, it actually has two delicious fast food meals with strong Mana.

Wow, what a windfall! Why not take advantage of it?

"Ultimate Move!" Faced with this crisis, the two immediately shouted and unleashed their full power at the same time.

In that instant.

Flames and Holy Light erupted simultaneously.

Faced with High-Class creature, they went all out and managed to create horrific gashes on the octopus's tentacles in the first instant.

A piercing scream Pierce throughout the canyon.

The Magical Beast in the darkness trembled and hid...

The High-Class are very strong.

However, this does not mean that mid-tier opponents are unable to resist, especially against near- High-Class like Lotner and Burning Ash!

Stimulated by the stings, the giant octopus frantically thrashed its enormous tentacles, sending wave after wave of dark shadows crashing down, smashing deep craters into the damp earth. The splashing mud and water were even capable of injuring many Novice-Class Professional.

The two, Lotner and his companion, were truly formidable. Like two agile monkeys, they dodged and weaved, managing to strike back and inflict significant damage.

In a brief exchange.

The two were unharmed, and they even nearly severed one of the tentacles.

"Watch out!" Burning Ash shouted, unleashing his Battle Aura Shield.

The Swamp Octopus supported its body with four tentacles, and its enormous belly maw was as terrifying as Abyss, with countless sharp teeth opening like a black hole.

Boom!

A dense black light roared out.

It grazed past the two of them, instantly blasting a huge hole in the cliff face, causing half the canyon to tremble.

Such a fierce offensive made it difficult for the two to move. The Blacklight Magic Cannon fired one shot after another; who could withstand that?

Fortunately, the tentacle monster seemed to be a bit weak after shooting for a while, and continued to slap wildly with its tentacles...

Lotner was speechless with frustration. He hadn't meant to draw the fire—just those disgusting little monsters—but who would have thought that beneath the small swamp lay a massive, impatient creature...

"Come out later. If you come out later, His Your Highness will be at the cauliflower market. You can come then. High-Class should fight High-Class, right? Why do I feel like I've been tricked?"

As for Burning Ash, he also felt a little wronged. He believed he could give everything for the Lord, whether it was his body or his life...

But I was having a great time watching the show...

What do you mean by pushing me down like that...?

Without realizing it.

Burning Ash felt a piercing pain, but he would not harbor any disloyalty towards the lord, so he vented all his anger on the monster.

William was watching with great interest; all three were bosses, and killing any of them wouldn't be easy.

"A level 89 Swamp Octopus, tsk tsk, it's actually a creature from the Mythic Era. Although its level is quite high, it's a pity it only has the Grandmaster Bloodline. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy to be bait."

"Magical Beast have a great advantage over Intelligent Races, one of which is their size. High-Tier Monster of this size often have tens or even hundreds of thousands of HP."

But being too big means it's not agile enough; otherwise, would it need to swat those two bastards like flies?

More importantly, while Magical Beast possess intelligence, even intelligent Magical Beast cannot compare to Intelligent Races.

Even a clever Troll would be more intelligent than them.

William's view on the Magical Beast was wise. With such a low- Intelligence creature, as long as he found bait to expose it, he would have a chance to kill it in one blow!

"After all, even Magical Beast in Nengyin would be unhappy to see two hot dogs slaughtering the snacks in front of its door. Although it might tolerate it for a while at first, once it realizes there's no danger, it will inevitably arrogantly rush out and devour them!" William had already picked up his bow and arrow, ready to shoot at any moment.

He didn't want to attempt any more Leap of Faith...

For the Cloud-Swallowing Python, even if he missed his leap and was swallowed by it, it didn't matter.

But this little oddity was different; he genuinely didn't dare jump into that giant mouth filled with countless Tooth.

Both of them were panting heavily, and even Burning Ash was Lotner from the impact.

If the ground beneath their feet hadn't been relatively damp, they would have been filmed looking like complete idiots...

They were indeed mid-level bosses, but the giant in front of them was ultimately High-Class boss. They could dodge the tentacle strikes time and time again, and they could also counterattack time and time again.

But they had no chance to get close to the creature.

This Swamp Octopus is already in the swamp, so if the two get close, they will inevitably enter the swamp. If they are not careful and get pulled in, they will surely die.

However, their lack of Battle Aura caused their attacks to gradually decrease in frequency.

The two figures moved slower and slower, and their attack damage decreased...

Moment!

Squidward, who had been using three or four tentacles, suddenly unleashed six tentacles at once, instantly slamming the two, who had no way to avoid it, into the ground.

But it was at this very moment.

A flash of Thunder streaked across the sky!

Bang!

A huge, bloody hole blew out of the giant octopus's head, from which a sticky liquid continuously oozed out.

It didn't give it a chance to react.

A figure appeared above, wielding a two-meter-long Thunder Spear.

A sudden downward plunge!

Boom!

A dazzling burst of Thunder Light erupted.

A huge, bloody hole appeared, and countless Electric Arc leaped across its surface. Even the tentacles that were about to wrap around Lotner and the other man loosened their grip upon being electrocuted.

Roar!

The piercing screams echoed Pierce the canyon like sound waves.

William was taken aback; he hadn't delivered the fatal blow.

My European Qi is gone, Wrath of the Thunder God didn't trigger!

The combined damage only caused him to lose 80,000 to 90,000 HP...

The giant in front of us still has more than five HP left!

But he's not a lucky charm...

But he's a tycoon...

He then took out a wine barrel and threw it into the wound, before his feet suddenly shot up, propelling him into the sky.

"Holy crap, is this Magical Beast worth the price?" Upon seeing this, Lotner and his companion immediately dug a hole, creating a huge, deep pit in almost three seconds. They crawled inside, not caring whether the giant earthworms below were disgusting or not; they just wanted to hide first.

then...

The Swamp Octopus, just regaining its senses, was about to brandish its tentacles in anger...

A beam of light burst forth from his body...

The next second.

An indescribable Mana instantly enlarged the giant octopus, causing it to swell ever larger...

Boom!

An explosion rang out!

Countless pieces of flesh and blood were completely vaporized in the white light.

A mindless explosion formation composed of 3 Mana Crystal is just that awesome...

A full three minutes passed.

William glanced at the blasted-to-ash canyon from the cliff top and grinned. "You really don't give a damn about rich people. I'll just bury you in a million Gold Coin!"

3 Mana Crystal.

One worth over 3000 Gold Coin...

It's expensive but there's no market for it!

This is a strategic treasure, something only Kingdom can possess. It's not for killing Magical Beast; it's for providing energy to the Magic Cannon.

At worst, it can be used as Mana Equipment.

Nobody uses it as a disposable explosive device...

In short.

William is a nouveau riche...

Using this thing to kill Magical Beast is an absolute luxury, because Professional kill Magical Beast for their meat and Magic Crystal...

But was William doing it for Magical Beast?

He did it for the Magic Potion...

But he glanced at the few remaining Magic Potion, then flew down expressionlessly...

no.

We must find the Magic Crystal that was blown up.

Otherwise, you'll suffer a huge loss!

The two men, Lotner and his companion, emerged from the ground, covered in mud and blood. After digging back into the soil, they fought a fierce battle with the giant earthworms before finally escaping.

The two were speechless when they saw the bloody mud on both sides of the canyon and some blasted tentacles.

All I can say is that the Lord was a bit too reckless.

Or rather...

The two knew they had come for the Magic Potion, and if they wanted to gather herbs, they couldn't let the Swamp Octopus escape. Now that they had injured it, they knew that if it sank back into the swamp, there would be nothing they could do.

Moreover, in that situation, naturally no one would dare to collect the Magic Potion.

If you're not careful and get entangled by tentacles and pulled into the swamp, you're guaranteed to die.

"What are you looking at? Looking for Magic Crystal!" William flew through the air, carefully collecting the purple flowers.

There were originally over a hundred Magic Potion, but after the explosion, only a dozen or so remain.

But this thing is really a treasure.

"Hehe, treasures that increase permanent attributes are the best things. It's a pity there are no Potion Sprite in this godforsaken place, otherwise I would be rich!"

"Magic Potion? In my past life, these things were incredibly expensive to me, but now, I'm going to consume every Magic Potion on Storm Island. I refuse to believe my four-dimensional attributes won't explode." William chuckled and put all the Magic Potion into his Space Ring.

"Grown ups!"

"You found the Magic Crystal?" William turned his head, thinking that the Magic Crystal had been blown away or blown to pieces.

"No, look what this is!" Lotner pointed to the cliff face; the explosion had blasted out a wall...

That's the wall...

It's a man-made wall...
