A Quest Token Appeared

After leaving the chat channel, Qin Feng continued hunting monsters.

He looked up ahead at the boundless grassland before him.

He immediately activated all three of his talents-sight, smell, and hearing-and flashed toward the depths of the grassland.

He had to find new ferocious beasts as soon as possible.

Kill monsters and level up!

This lush grassland was very suitable for ferocious beasts to thrive in. There should be more of them here than in the Bone Burial Wasteland.

That was also why he had left the Bone Burial Wilderness and come to this grassland.

Sure enough, fifteen minutes later, he discovered something.

At that moment, he watched a mound ahead warily.

His extraordinary hearing talent had already picked up faint sounds coming from beneath the mound.

There had to be some ferocious beast hiding down there!

At that thought, he tightened his grip on his saber.

In this danger-ridden level 10 ferocious beast zone, even beasts above level 10 could appear. Who could predict what formidable monster would turn up next?

So he dared not let his guard down!

Just as that thought arose, something suddenly changed ahead.

Boom!

An explosive crash rang out!

The grass ahead erupted, sending dust flying!

A rock giant eighty feet tall, with green grass atop its head, burst out of the ground.

Its eyes were crimson, its entire body was made of gray rock, and its presence was immensely imposing.

At that moment, it stared coldly at Qin Feng, contempt filling the depths of its eyes.

In fact, it had spotted Qin Feng long ago and had been waiting to ambush this human when he passed the mound.

But to its surprise, this human was extremely alert and had discovered it first.

[Monster]: Grassland Stone Giant (mutant)

[Level]: 11

[Combat power assessment]: 18 stars

[Traits]: Berserk, bloodthirsty, territorial guardian.

[Talent]: Earth Manipulation (D-rank)

[Skills]: ????

[Drop rate]: 11

Huh!

It was actually a level 11 mutant monster!

Its skills couldn't even be viewed!

Holy shit!

Eighteen-star combat power!

That was a whole lot stronger than the fifteen-star Two-Headed Hellhound!

And this monster actually possessed a D-rank talent.

Only a dozen or so humans in the entire novice village possessed D-rank talents.

This was also the first monster he had encountered whose talent reached D-rank.

The higher the talent, the greater the strength!

Qin Feng drew a deep breath, not daring to be careless.

In this world full of slaughter, being cautious was never wrong.

After all, he only had one life!

Roar!

With a low roar, the stone giant attacked first.

With a wave of its hand, it hurled a head-sized round stone straight at Qin Feng, fast and fierce as a cannonball.

Qin Feng hurriedly darted aside, dodging at speed.

Whoosh!

A fierce gust howled!

The round stone skimmed past Qin Feng's shoulder and struck the ground behind him.

Bang!

A dull crash rang out!

The stone smashed a large crater into the ground and shattered, instantly sending fragments and dust flying with terrifying force.

Even a level 10 expert would be injured if caught in that blast.

Huh!

This human was only level 7, yet his reactions were so fast that he had actually dodged it.

Even many level 10 humans probably couldn't match him!

The stone giant was slightly surprised.

Then it waved again, hurling another round stone at Qin Feng with its other hand.

Qin Feng dodged again.

Swish!

The round stone flew past his body once more.

But before he could catch his breath, the stone giant hurled another stone...

Just like that, it kept swinging both hands, bombarding Qin Feng with one round stone after another like cannonballs.

Holy shit!

This monster used ranged attacks!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, the stone giant had hurled over a dozen stones.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Qin Feng darted about, dodging every one.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The stones missed, blasting the grassland into a haze of churning dust that blotted out the sky.

At that moment, Qin Feng secretly counted himself lucky.

Fortunately, his Shadow Boots boosted his movement speed. Otherwise, he really would not have been able to dodge them all.

But this could not go on. He had to get close to the stone giant to kill it, rather than keep taking its attacks.

Otherwise, sooner or later, he would slip up and get hit.

With that thought, he darted forward, charging at the stone giant.

They were over ten meters apart, and Qin Feng moved as swiftly as a phantom.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

With several darting changes of direction, he rushed right up to the stone giant.

Only one meter separated them.

Boom!

At that very moment, the stone giant stamped its foot, shaking the earth.

Qin Feng instantly grew alert. His extraordinary hearing let him hear something shooting upward from three feet beneath his feet.

He hurriedly shifted sideways on instinct.

Bang!

An explosive crash rang out!

A long, sharp stone spike burst out beside him, nearly impaling him.

Holy shit!

This monster could even launch sneak attacks with an earth spike skill!

The stone giant was also shocked.

It had not expected Qin Feng to dodge that either.

In that moment of stunned surprise, Qin Feng struck.

Swish!

Cold light flashed!

He thrust his saber straight into the stone giant's heart area.

Crack!

There was a faint sound of splitting rock!

Shhk!

The saber plunged deep inside!

Qin Feng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next second, he realized something was wrong.

Not only did the stone giant fail to fall, it looked at him with a sneer.

Then a gust surged from its palm!

The stone giant slammed its palm down with all its strength, aiming straight for the top of Qin Feng's head with earth-shaking force.

At that moment, amusement lurked in its eyes, as though it could smash Qin Feng into pulp in the next second.

"Damn it!"

Startled, Qin Feng whipped his saber out, but it was already too late to dodge that palm.

In that moment of peril, he raised his saber horizontally to block!

Palm and saber collided in an instant!

Bang!

An earth-shaking crash rang out!

The stone giant's tremendous strength sent Qin Feng flying.

The next second, Qin Feng flipped through the air and landed steadily.

Huh!

This human was actually unharmed!

The stone giant was utterly shocked!

Its immense strength could kill a level 10 human with one palm strike, yet the human before it had blocked it.

Qin Feng stared at the stone giant in equal shock.

At that moment, he clearly saw the wound at the stone giant's heart area rapidly closing at a visible speed, returning to its original state in the blink of an eye.

Holy shit!

So this stone giant's body could repair itself.

More importantly, its weak point wasn't its heart area at all.

That meant his earlier strike had been completely useless.

That made sense. The stone giant before him was only a monster, not a creature of flesh and blood. It probably didn't even have a heart.

He had been wrong from the start to locate this monster's weakness using the characteristics of living creatures.

Then how should he deal with this stone giant?

Qin Feng pondered.

The stone giant also watched him with a grave expression.

This human's strength was terrifying, unlike anything it had seen in its life.

Just then, Qin Feng's eyes lit up, as though he had thought of a way to deal with the stone giant.

He immediately darted forward, lunging at the stone giant again.

Roar!

The stone giant roared in alarm, swinging both hands and firing one stone cannonball after another at him.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Qin Feng darted about, reaching the stone giant in an instant.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

At that instant, three earth spikes burst from the ground.

Already prepared, Qin Feng pinpointed their positions by sound and dodged them all.

Whoosh!

The stone giant's massive palm also came smashing down.

Qin Feng twisted aside, dodging the palm.

Boom!

The palm missed and struck the ground, shattering it and sending dust flying.

Seizing the chance, Qin Feng darted forward and stepped onto its arm. Pushing off, he leaped over fifty feet high, reaching the stone giant's chest.

Before the stone giant could react, he slashed horizontally!

Swish!

A gleam of saber light flashed through the air, sweeping across the giant's neck.

Crack!

A sharp crack rang out!

The giant's enormous head rolled off its neck.

Boom!

The Stone Giant's body collapsed with a crash, turning into a heap of rubble.

He had finally killed it!

The moment Qin Feng landed, a dazzling white light flew out of the rubble and surged into his body, sending warmth throughout him...

[Successfully killed level 11 Grassland Stone Giant (mutant grade). Gained +1,400 energy points.]

[Successfully achieved the first kill of a level 11 Grassland Stone Giant (mutant grade). Gained +3 reputation.]

Haha!

1,400 energy points!

And 3 reputation!

Qin Feng was ecstatic!

[Successfully killed level 11 Grassland Stone Giant (mutant grade). Dropped a C-grade quest token.]

Huh!

A drop!

What was a quest token?

Intensely curious, Qin Feng hurried forward to take a look...
