Chapter 619 Hunting Giants

On the misty land, the giant scout passed through the jungle silently, making no sound when he landed, and rolled and hid behind the trees.

 The giant scout showed his head from behind the giant tree and looked into the depths of the mist ahead.

Ahead, the target targeted by it, a low-star Fool, was rushing forward without looking back, without any premonition of the danger behind him.

For such a tiny and fragile being, the Giant Scout is confident that it can easily blast the opponent with just one kick or punch, just as easily as crushing an insect.

However, it did not do this, and has even been carefully hiding itself, because its mission is to track the Fool, record the opponent's movement track without exposing itself, and infer the location of the opponent's base camp based on this.

 The Fools can be killed at any time. What they want is to catch them all!

Looking at the target still walking slowly, the giant scout took out a pen and paper, sketched a few lines on the paper, and wrote down some text notes.

But at this moment, it suddenly noticed that the Fool in front changed its direction of action, without slowing down, and headed in another direction.

The giant scout frowned. Seeing that the opponent was about to leave his field of vision, he had no choice but to put away his pen and paper and catch up again.

Fortunately, the target did not show any weird behavior along the way, such as suddenly turning back, stopping, etc., and the direction of advancement was not deliberately away from it. It should not be that it was tracked, but something happened temporarily. New places to go.

The giant scout continued to follow silently all the way, and soon, it discovered that the Fool rushed into a mountain pass.

There are steep highlands on both sides and a narrow valley in the middle. This kind of terrain is not conducive to investigators, making the giant hesitate for a moment.

 But it was only for a moment. Seeing the Fool walking away, the giant scout still followed him firmly.

 After a while, the giant followed the Fool, and they both went deep into the valley.

At this moment, the Fool in front suddenly accelerated and began to distance himself from the giant at an obviously abnormal speed.

The giant scout frowned, already having a vague premonition that something was not going to happen. He subconsciously wanted to stop and retreat, but he felt his feet suddenly became empty. When he looked down, he realized that the soles of his feet had stepped into a swamp at some point.

At the same time, several ropes emerged from the mud, stretched straight from all directions, and wrapped around the giant's legs. The restraint of the ropes and the slippery nature of the swamp caused the giant to fall backwards uncontrollably.

The giant fell heavily to the ground, his cloak opened, and his huge body was completely exposed in the valley.

The moment the giant fell down, a figure jumped out with a knife and landed accurately on the giant's face. The scimitar in his hand slashed straight towards the giant's eyes.

"Roar…"

 As the giant roared, one of its eyes was pierced by a blade, and half of its field of vision instantly turned red.

This was not over yet. In the next moment, a strong flash of light erupted from the blade. The giant instinctively closed his eyes due to the stinging pain in his eyes. However, this action made his eyes burn even more.

 Under the rule that one must open his eyes at dawn, a chain of order appeared on the giant's body.

 Fell into a trap!

The giant now fully understood that this was a well-designed trap. Not only did the Fools discover its existence, they even used its tracking to specifically lead it into this unfavorable terrain. It drives away so easily.

Thinking of this, the giant ignored the wounds in his eyes and waved his hands fiercely to push back the frantically attacking figure. Then he jumped up, forced himself out of the rope trap, and tried to escape towards the exit of the valley.

 However, in just a few movements, two golden chains were wrapped around its body.

“The response is pretty quick...but, you’re already here and you still want to run away?”

 Mu You looked at the text in the game and grinned.

Of course he set up this trap. The source of this trap is a universal magic called 'Earth Trap', which Mu You learned from a certain magic stone. It is only a one-star magic with no attack power and very effective. It's weak, but it's still good for setting up an ambush in advance.

He had observed the giant all the way and knew that the giant was left-handed and very cautious, so before he showed up, he had prepared "Please open your eyes at dawn" and "Right first" and put a triple order on the giant as soon as they met. lock.

  【You summoned the Order Guard. 】

【As soon as the Order Guards appeared, they went straight towards the giants wrapped in the Chains of Order...】

【At the same time, the bone dragon and the savages jumped down from the cliffs on the left and right, formed a triangle with you, and surrounded the giant. 】

  【The giant was shocked when he saw the savage appearing in front of him. He had no idea of ​​​​fighting and directly launched a 'charge' towards the bone dragon. His body moved very fast like a phantom, and he was about to break out between the bone dragon and the giant...]

  【You activated the 'silent realm', and the charging giant's footsteps stopped abruptly. He stopped abruptly and was kicked over by the incoming savage...]

This giant is a serious 9-star creature, and it is not a wild monster, but an intelligent and combat-trained warrior. Its combat power may be no less than that of the giants who invaded the earth.

 Fortunately, Mu You is no longer the newbie who just got the divine skin. Besides, there is also a 9-star savage beside him to help him. In terms of frontal combat power, there is absolutely no comparison.

As for the giant's magical ability, Mu You could see it to some extent along the way. This giant is a scout, and its main focus is on abilities such as concealment and sprinting to escape.

If it were someone else, as long as the giant was not fond of fighting and focused on escaping, it would still be difficult to keep him. Unfortunately, it met Mu You. Regardless of your ability to escape, the encounter was forbidden.

  【Between you, the savages, and the bone dragon, the giants have no way to escape and are forced to fight you...】

  【You use the cover of the savages to launch surprise attacks on the giants from all directions, while constantly activating the moonlight flicker...】

 【The number of layers of Locks of Order on the giant is increasing rapidly...】

Mu You is very self-aware. He leaves the front to the barbarians, and he is only responsible for sneak attacks. He uses the "blinking eyes" tactic openly. The moonlight flashes frequently. If the giant does not close his eyes, he will be blinded. If he closes his eyes, he will lose his vision permanently.

Under the huge pressure provided by the savages, the giant scout was unable to defend against Mu You's sneak attacks, and could only be succeeded by him continuously. He only felt that his eyesight was getting blurry, and the number of chains on his body was also rapidly increasing.

This giant scout is finally not like the nine-star giant he met on the beach before. He can break free from the chains of order with brute force. He can only watch as more and more shackles are attached to his body.

 “Thirty-five, thirty-six…”

 Mu You silently counted the number of layers while attacking.

This giant has a real life of 160,000 points. However, because Mu You and Gu Long have low star levels, their attacks are all scraping, so the output pressure is all on the savages.

  With a full 160,000 health bar, it would still take a long time to rely on the savages to pierce it with one spear after another. It is obviously faster to directly use "Judgment of Order" here.

"Almost there..." Seeing two more layers of chains stacked up in the blink of an eye, Mu You had already brought up the panel and was about to activate his ultimate move.

Nowadays, LV6's 'Judgment of Order' only requires 40 levels to activate. It will instantly kill creatures below 10 stars. Although it cannot instantly kill creatures above the **** level, it also has an 'execution' special effect that can be forced. Deduct 50% of maximum health.

  【The number of layers of Locks of Order on the giant has reached 39, and there is only the last layer left before the activation of Order Judgment...】

[However, at this time, the giant scout seemed to feel his fate. He suddenly roared and forced the savage back. He took out something like a grenade from his waist and fired it high into the sky...]    [Red The signal bomb immediately penetrated the fog, flew high into the clouds, and disappeared...]

 “Can you still send messages remotely?”

Mu You looked strange, but he didn't expect these giants to have such a skill.

 There is such a thing, but it was not used when the attack was first carried out. It has been postponed until now. It is probably a trump card that can only be used before death to transmit death information back.

No matter what message the other party wants to send with this signal flare, Mu You will not let it succeed at this time.

  【Time goes by, you go back ten seconds ago...】

  【You activated your 'wonderful hand' against the giant...】

  【Theft successful! You stole the 'Last Word Cannon' from the Giant Scout. 】

This giant didn't have much equipment, so Mu You just rolled it a few times and stole the thing's body.

  【Last Word Cannon: A communication cannon that can only be activated once. It is expensive to build. It can permanently sacrifice part of its own life force, collect the light and shadow of nearby scenes, and deliver it to a designated location over a long distance. 】

As expected, it is a disposable thing, and it can also transmit images. If this is sent back by the other party, Mu Youye will be exposed.

  …The giant roared tragically and forced you and the savage back again. He reached for his waist, but found nothing...]

  【In the giant's blank expression, the light on your blade flashes again, and the chain of order on the giant scout's body has been raised to level 40! 】

  【You launched the ‘Order Judgment’! 】

  【All the chains on the giant's body burst together, and the giant scout fell to the ground in despair, making no sound...】

  【Under the Eyes of the Golden Crow, you see an energized transparent jellyfish pouring out from the head of the giant's body. As soon as it appears, it quickly moves away from the savage, with a trace of panic evident in its movements...】

  【Jellyfish flies towards you, quickly burrows into your brain, but passes through your body...】

  【The jellyfish showed a desperate look and hurriedly floated further away, but it lost its energy in mid-air, fell to the ground, and quickly withered until it completely disappeared...】

This ‘transparent jellyfish’ is obviously a god-eating beast.

This thing must find a new host as soon as possible after it dies. However, none of the four people present are able to parasitize it: Mu You and Zifeiyu are both mind clones, and the bone dragon only has a handful of bones left. Not to mention that it is not even humanoid, and it is even less possible to be a parasite.

 What interests Mu You the most is the reaction of the God-eating Beast to the savages: not only did it not try to parasitize the savages, it even showed a "fear" emotion and stayed away from the savages for the first time...

This made Mu You even more convinced that the reason why Abby had not been parasitized before was precisely because of the existence of the savage teeth, which prevented the god-devouring beasts who were preparing to parasitize from approaching him, and thus he escaped.

“So, as long as you wear some savage body tissue on your body, you can prevent being parasitized?” Mu You touched his chin.

Of course, this method is not safe. The God-Eating Beast is just instinctively afraid of the scent of the savage. If it is cornered or desperate, it will still parasitize when it should.

  【You searched the giant's body and found 'Magic Boots', 'Scout's Cloak', 'Scout's Blade', Scout's Notes...]

  【You condensed the giant's bones and obtained the blood of God*1, the bone of God*1, and 6561 divine crystals...】

 A bunch of equipment was found from the opponent. Judging from the text, these should be mass-produced standard equipment, indicating that this giant scout is likely to belong to a giant army!

Mu You shook his head. The effectiveness of these equipment was average and of no use to him. What really attracted his attention was the 'Scout's Notes'.

This thing is actually a small book used by giant scouts to record mission procedures and intelligence.

Mu You took it out and took a look.

 According to the records in this booklet, the giants seemed to have discovered the player's existence five days ago, and sent many scouts to start tracking the player.

 In addition, this notebook also contains a hand-drawn map.

Mu You opened it and saw that all the nearby soul-inducing lamp locations were on it. They should have been found by the giant scouts who were tracking the players one by one.

These giants found the soul lamp, but did not destroy it. Apparently they wanted to follow the clues and find the location of Sunset City.

 “The great **** is awesome!”

 Seeing that the battle was over, Zifeiyu returned to the battlefield and sent a private message to Mu You: "Thank you, God, for today, otherwise I would have become a sinner!"

Zifeiyu was also a little scared at this time. If Mu You hadn't reminded him, he would have been guilty of taking the giant all the way back to Sunset City and exposing the location of Sunset City.

 “That’s not to say...” Mu You shook his head.

Zifeiyu just wanted to teleport back to the city at the soul-inducing lamp. Even if he continued to be followed by the giant, the most he would do was expose one more soul-inducing lamp.

From this map, it can be seen that the giants have only found a group of soul-inducing lanterns on the periphery, and there is still quite a buffer before they discover Sunset City.

Of course, if left unchecked, Sunset City will be discovered sooner or later.

Thinking of this, Mu You immediately contacted Bluebeard in the group and explained to him what happened here.

“Oh my god, is there such a thing?” Bluebeard was shocked when he saw the news, and then felt a little bitter in his heart. Among the eight flying cities, the other cities were fine, so why did his city hit the giant?

"I estimate that this kind of tracking is not an isolated case. There should be players who are out and about being tracked now. You'd better remind them as soon as possible." Mu Youyou said.

 “Okay, I’ll make an announcement right away…”

Bluebeard also knew that the matter was urgent and hurriedly went to edit the city lord's order in the game.

"By the way, if a player has discovered that he is being followed, don't run away yet, find a way to drag him away, and I will rush over to help." Mu Youyou said.

 With the help of the savages, he can easily kill the giant scouts, but others do not have this ability. When encountering giants, they can only commit suicide or run away.

 Now we can hunt a few more giants before the giants react.
