Chapter 172 -138: Mist Barrier Monster, A Single Arrow from Valkyrie Seals the Throat_2

[If you, the True God’s Messenger, are interested in the giant monster in the mist, you may inspect it personally, but please beware of the monster’s gaze…]

[Will you tell ‘Bennett’ that you want to locate the monster outside the clinic?]

Lin Xun thought for a moment, then hit ‘Yes’.

The text seemed to imply that Bennett might be able to help him.

[‘Bennett’ nods, walks to a cabinet by the wall and rummages through it before handing you a few bottles of powder.]

[You have received ‘Fluorescent Footprint Powder’ (Item) *3]

[‘Fluorescent Footprint Powder’ (Item), a bottle of powder emitting colourful fluorescents. Upon use, the item will leave colourful footprints illuminating the path you walked for a short period, aiding you in finding your way back home.]

[‘Bennett’ leads you downstairs to the clinic’s lobby and then out the front door…]

[The night sky is lit with stars, cutting through the mist and illuminating the world, yet unable to dissipate the dense, white mist.]

[‘Bennett’ points in the southeast direction, informing you that the monster’s howls came from that direction. You, as the True God’s Messenger, can explore in that direction as advised.]

[Remember to use the ‘Fluorescent Footprint Powder’ before you start exploring to find your way back to the clinic afterward…]

[Would you like to explore in the direction indicated by ‘Bennett’?]

Technically, he could also return by dying after finishing the exploration…

Lily’s Shell in the Shell column was of no use anymore.

He could lose his way in the white mist, switch to Lily’s Shell and die, then resurrect back at the clinic.

But since the item was available for use, it was better to use it now, instead of saving it for an uncertain future.

[You bid ‘Bennett’ farewell and start moving towards the pointed direction…]

Lin Xun opened the Shell column and switched to the Earth Giant’s Shell.

He then clicked on ‘Refined Copper Sand Hammer’ in the item column.

[You draw out the ‘Refined Copper Sand Hammer’ and gently swing it…]

[Accompanied by a pleasant rhythm of rustling sounds, you summon ‘Combat Angel—Valkyrie’.]

[A beautiful girl casually steps out from the void, clad in a black nanometre combat suit, a pair of huge wings made from refined copper on her back. Between the wings, she carries a barrel-shaped arrow pot. In her hand, she holds a gigantic bow almost as tall as her Shell…]

[She kneels on one knee, awaiting your command…]

Just as Lin Xun was about to issue a follow command, he noticed the ‘Mount’ option among the myriad of combat instructions.

???

He slowly typed three question marks. Valkyrie…how to mount?

Driven by curiosity, he clicked on the mount option.

[You issued the ‘Mount’ command to ‘Combat Angel—Valkyrie’.]

[‘Combat Angel—Valkyrie’ walks up behind you, gently wraps her arms around your waist. Her refined copper wings flap, stirring up a gust of wind, and then you both take off into the air, flying into the mist…]

Oh my god? I can fly!

Lin Xun widened his eyes.

He stared at the text in disbelief. Although Valkyrie was the one carrying him, they were indeed flying.

The flight function in the game represented the ability to overcome many terrain limits such as cliffs, swamps, high walls, etc.

The addition of the flight ability significantly increased the scope of exploration.

“Choosing Valkyrie over Hercules was indeed the right decision.”

However, with this mounting posture, Valkyrie loses her ability to fight at the front.

With her arms wrapped around the waist, she wouldn’t be able to wield her weapon.

Was this the game version of the saying ‘With both hands carrying bricks, I can’t hold you. If I put down the bricks, I can’t support you’?

Could they change to a piggyback posture?

He checked the combat instructions, but there was no such option. It seemed Valkyrie had limited mounting options.

But on second thought, it made sense. Valkyrie’s wings of refined copper were on her back. How could she carry a person on her back and still fly?

[You fly towards the direction pointed out by ‘Bennett’…]

After some thought, Lin Xun decided to cancel the flying status and assign the follow command instead.

Valkyrie’s combat strength was formidable, and he needed all the help he could get in the direct confrontation with the giant monster.

The flying status would be useful for covering large distances or crossing certain terrains while exploring.

[‘Combat Angel—Valkyrie’ lands with you, retracting her wings made of refined copper.]

[She pulls an arrow from the pot on her back, sets it on the giant bow, and gracefully follows beside you.]

[You start walking towards the direction pointed out by ‘Bennett’…]

[As you approach, a huge shadow gradually emerges from the mist.]

[A massive monstrous creature lies sprawled on the ground, and through the mist, you can only see fragments of it. Its countless tentacles pierce the mist, twitching slightly, and the eyes on them tightly shut.]

[Many of the monster’s tentacles have been severed, spilling stench-filled, green viscous liquid.]

[The monster seems to be asleep. Would you attack it?]

Lin Xun furrows his brow in deep thought.

The monster is of a massive size, far exceeding the visibility range in the white fog.

That meant he couldn’t see the monster’s entire form without using the ‘Clear Eye Drops’.

Neither could he obtain Knowledge from seeing the monster’s form for the first time.

Currently, his Knowledge had reached 800/1100. Viewing the whole monster form would allow him to increase the limit of his Knowledge once again.

He reasoned, there was more than just one giant monster in the mist, so he could gain Knowledge later.

Killing the injured, sleeping monster to gain rewards was of utmost priority now.

With this determined thought, he quickly utilized the talent of the Earth Giant’s Shell and maximizes its size.
