Qin Mengya had seen many people take advantage of other people’s situations and go back on their words.

Not to mention that she had experienced it once herself, which made her never trust others easily again.

“It’s… It’s fine, right? He said that he wanted to do it anyway.”

“Can you guarantee that he’s telling the truth?”

“… I don’t dare to, but I don’t think he’s lying…”

Upon hearing this, Qin Mengya rolled her eyes helplessly.

She didn’t know how many times she had sighed. With Luo Yao’s somewhat naive character, she had a lot of things to complain about, especially when she had more life experience.

If she had been in Luo Yao’s shoes, she was confident that she could have ensured that this “big shot” was trustworthy.

And she would have done it flawlessly.

“Forget it, forget it. We’ve already agreed on it anyway. There’s no need to change it.” Luo Yao didn’t want to make things difficult for anyone else.

She took out another “Flying Talisman” from her rucksack and used it to speed to the south.

“To reach level 10 as soon as possible, I have to work hard too!”



Meeting Luo Yao was just a small interlude to Ling Yi’s journey.

He didn’t take her words to heart.

Looking at the Ice Queen flying in the sky, he said softly, “Xiao Bing1, don’t attack this Boss first. I want to try to fight it on my own.”

The Ice Queen turned her head slightly and looked at him with her pure and beautiful eyes.

Her red lips moved slightly as if she wanted to say something.

However, after a moment, she pursed her lips slightly and nodded at him.

Seeing this, Ling Yi smiled in relief.

After copying her strength attribute, he turned around and flew towards the fifth stage’s Boss, the Giant Ax Stone Man.

He had already seen the Boss’s attributes through the [Eye of Truth] just now and knew he was up against a close-combat power-type Boss.

Ling Yi couldn’t help but want to fight him one on one.

He had been relying on [Starfall] to kill monsters all this while and had no experience in close combat.

The Boss in front of him had all the strength, speed, and defense. It was the perfect training target.

[Name: Giant Ax Stone Man (LV30)]

[Type: Boss Monster]

[Attributes: strength 330, mana 90, agility 90, endurance 180, Constitution 270]

[Skills: Innate Divine Strength (5 Stars) (Passive), Tough Stone Body (5 Stars) (Passive), Violent Strike (5 Stars), Demonic Blood Blade (5 Stars), Sky-Shaking Thunder Strike (7 Stars), Blood Soaked Self Healing (3 Stars) (Passive)]

[Current Status: Healthy]

It was a three-meter-tall stone man holding a colossal stone ax. Its entire body was made of gray stones, and it barely had a human shape.

Its eyes were like two green lanterns, giving off an eerie green glow.

When Ling Yi landed in front of it, it only looked at him quietly and didn’t move.

Instead, the Elite monsters around him, the Broadsword Stone monsters, waved their broadswords and charged at him.

Ling Yi ignored them because the Ice Queen would deal with them.

Sure enough, he could hear the tingling sound of ice flying behind him the next moment.

Pieces of gray ice crystals fell from the sky like a shower, hitting these small monsters.

In just a few seconds, the surrounding monsters were frozen by the dense icy rain, forming large ice stones.

Nobody could see what was inside once trapped in that stone.

The Boss, Giant Ax Stone Man, extended its thick stone arm and pulled out the stone ax that was deeply embedded in the ground. Then, the dim green light in its eyes suddenly lit up as if it had awakened!

Immediately after, it raised its thick stone legs and ran towards Ling Yi with the stone ax in its hands!

Boom boom boom boom boom!

The stone feet thump heavily against the ground, letting people know its enormous weight.

Ling Yi’s eyes lit up. He held his Battle Flag tightly and activated his Elemental Spirit Blade at full power.

In an instant, the white flames dazzled brightly.

He bent his legs slightly and then charged toward the stone man.

The two of them were like two magnets attracted to each other.

Then, at the next moment–

Bang!

As the Burning Battle Flag collided with the Stone Ax, it clanged loudly, creating a deafening sound.

The invisible shock wave spread rapidly, blowing the flowers and grass around it.

The level 22 Ice Queen had 330 points of power. Thus, Ling Yi, who had copied her power attribute, had 343 points.

It was better than anything.

After a moment of struggle, the Giant Ax Stone Man seemed to realize that the player before him had more power than it and immediately changed its attack.

It turned its offense into defense and blocked Ling Yi’s powerful attack. It then stepped back and twisted its body to swing the stone ax in its hand.

Although Ling Yi’s 68 dexterity was lower than the giant’s, it was still enough for him to react. He immediately waved the Battle Flag at the Stone Ax.

However, the power of its attack was beyond Ling Yi’s expectations. He couldn’t block it, and he was sent flying.

‘strike!?‘

‘F*ck! I can’t even tell that it’s using a skill!‘

Ling Yi instantly knew the reason why he was sent flying.

The monster couldn’t beat him in strength alone.

That horizontal sweep was so powerful, it must have been a skill!

This was the first time Ling Yi had encountered a skill that didn’t have to be shouted out loud. He was at a disadvantage due to his lack of experience.

Shua shua shua!

In less than half a second, he suddenly heard a very sharp noise, as if something was flying and cutting the air toward him at high speed.

Ling Yi took a closer look and realized that the giant monster was throwing the stone ax at him!

There was no time for him to think. He immediately held the battle flag in front of him and blocked the flying stone ax, and the weapons clashed with a loud bang.

However, just as he thought this attack was over, the stone man rushed toward him at high speed.

It caught the Stone Ax as it bounced back at it with one hand and then jumped high, its hands gripping tightly on the handle.

In the next second, the Stone Ax emitted all kinds of lightning!

Then the lightning-wielding ax headed straight at Ling Yi!

At this moment, the latter was still flying backward from the previous attack.

Everything happened in a flash!

The Boss monster was extremely anxious about Ling Yi. However, Ling Yi’s eyes lit up, and he quickly realized this was his chance.

He quickly activated his short-distance teleportation ability, [Aeolus’ Call], and he was suddenly teleported to the Stone Man’s back. He held the battle flag with both hands and slashed its neck with all his might!

In the next second, there was a loud “boom” as the Stone Man’s ax, which was enveloped in lightning, struck the ground. In an instant, lightning spread everywhere, and the ground cracked.

The shocking shock wave quickly swept across a radius of 100 meters, cracking the ground within 30 to 40 meters.

It’s a mighty move, but sadly, it missed its target.

Ling Yi’s Elemental Spirit Blade enchanted Battle Flag hit its neck!

Like cutting rubber with a knife, he wedged the flag between the stones, but there was apparent resistance.

The flames on the flag immediately spurted out at this moment, burning rapidly in all directions from the wound.

In the short few seconds of confrontation between them, Ling Yi was the first to injure the other party.
