Chapter 457
The High King Turtle was eating continuously without stopping . After waiting only for a short while, the turtle reached Jiang Fei’s position .
The turtle stomping itself slowly and opened its jaw to scoop up the seaweed and Jiang Fei .
“Gulp . ”
Both Jiang Fei and Isabella were immediately swallowed once the turtle had them both in its mouth .
-10,000!
-10,000!
Once Jiang Fei had reached the bottom of the turtle’s stomach, he and Isabella took damage .
“Painful!” cried Jiang Fei . He had never thought that the turtle’s stomach acid would cause such high damage .
Qilin Holy Spirit!
Jiang Fei unsummoned Isabella and activated the equipment’s skill .
In ten seconds, Jiang Fei had gained Invulnerability . After that, he had Divine Shield which also granted Invulnerability for fifteen seconds . Twenty-five seconds worth of Invulnerability was just enough time for Jiang Fei to get what he needed .
Inside the turtle’s stomach, there was no light . However, Jiang Fei’s equipment armor glowed brightly, allowing him to see his surrounding .
“There’s no time to hunt for other innards . Could the stomach wall be considered as an innard?” wondered Jiang Fei . There was no time to think . When he wanted to carve the wall of the stomach, he realized that his hammer was not suited to cutting . He then used Lifesteal Demon form and used his claws to attack the wall .
“Hiiiyah!” Jiang Fei clawed the stomach wall and made a deep wound .
“Oh shit!”
Unexpectedly, the deep wound that Jiang Fei had clawed had started to recover at such rapid speed . That was the superior regenerative speed of the High King Turtle!
“I need to attack faster!”
Before the wound could close, Jiang Fei attacked as fast as the system allowed . He only needed a small chunk! In a few seconds, the wound started to grow bigger and before the wound closed, a large chunk of meat dropped .
High King Lord’s Stomach (Quest Item, Fine)
Use: An Ingredient to summon the Nine-Headed Hydra .
Jiang Fei picked up the chunk of meat and confirmed its properties . It was time to think about how to get out of that place .
The ten seconds Qilin Holy Spirit Invulnerability effect had already long expired . Jiang Fei was then depending on the Divine Shield to survive .
“How am I supposed to get out of here?”
That was a problem . Entering was easy but he had never planned on his exit . He recalled when Sun Wukong was swallowed by the Iron-Fan Princess . All it took Sun Wukong to escape was to hit the stomach from the inside and forcefully made the Iron-Fan Princess vomit him . Unlike the Iron-Fan Princess, the High King Turtle did not seem to be affected even when Jiang Fei had clawed its stomach .
“Argh . I’ll just come back again!”
In times of desperation, Jiang Fei activated the Abyss Door . The inside of the High King Turtle was considered to be an instance hence, he could not use the Return Town scroll to escape . Lucky for him, he had the Abyssal Door that could ignore all restrictions and get him out of there .
Back at the Abyss Realm, Jiang Fei quickly summoned Isabella and apologized to her for withdrawing her without even asking . After that, he used the Teleportation Circle and returned to Dawnlight City . It was a long trip but it was better than to be digested by the turtle .
When Jiang Fei returned to the beach, the High King Turtle was still eating without any care in the world .
“Heh . Now that’s a true glutton,” said Jiang Fei . He ignored the turtle since he had obtained what he needed from it .
With the piece of stomach flesh in his hand, Jiang Fei headed to the altar and placed it on the platform . Red light glowed from the crease on the platform . Engravings that looked like ancient runes appear one by one and formed a complex magic circle on the entire platform .
No sooner, the red light glowed brighter and formed pillars of light rays that shot to the sky . A cloud of red mist burst from the altar . The High King Turtle noticed the light pillar and quickly made its way to the sea as if it was afraid . It disappeared into the sea as a huge wave came crashing into the beach .
“Could the Hydra be the mortal enemy of the High King Turtle?” wondered Jiang Fei . There was no real logic behind the summoning ingredient .
In no time at all, the light pillar began to disappear and a powerful pulse of energy burst from the center of the altar .
“What is going on…”
When the light and mist disappeared, there was nothing on the altar . The only visible change on the altar was that the flesh of the High King Turtle’s Stomach was gone .
“Huh?!” Jiang Fei noted something was going on in the sea . A huge shadowy figure was making its way toward the shore .
Splash!
The huge head of a snake burst out from the waters . The second, the third came next and after that, the Nine-Headed Hydra had emerged fully from the sea .
“Oh man… Why is everything must be so huge…”
The Nine-Headed Hydra was almost just as huge as the High King Turtle .
Nine-Headed Hydra (Beast, Intermediate Lord)
Level: 65
Health Points: 9,000,000
Magic Attack: 15,000
Skills: All Elemental Spells .
Note: Each Head of the Nine-Headed Hydra is independent . Each head is considered as one enemy .
“Crap!”
Jiang Fei was stunned at the description of the boss . It was not a boss . It was nine bosses sharing one health bar!
Being independent meant that the Nine-Headed Hydra was able to full maximized its attack power . If all of the heads attacked simultaneously, it would be nine times the attack power . Even though the boss was only Level 65 . It was possible that even a Level 70 boss could not defeat the Hydra .
“How is this a solo quest…?” wondered Jiang Fei .
It had been established that the Title Challenge Quest was not considered as an important quest . Even though it could only be issued to players at and above Level 60, they could choose to complete the quest at a higher level . However, most of the players would never complete the quest and forever be an adventurer . Even the elite players would most likely be taking on the Title Challenge Quest when they hit Level 70 or even Level 80 . Jiang Fei was different . If it was another player, it would be close to impossible to complete the quest .
“I think we should try,” Isabella said suddenly .
“Are you sure?” asked Jiang Fei . He did not have much confidence in himself, must less in Isabella .
“When you reached Level 60, I have unlocked four more skills . I wish to test them out,” said Isabella confidently .
“Alright . Since you’re confident enough, I’ll support you!” said Jiang Fei . He was surprised to see that Isabella was insisting on fighting . But then again, she was once a Level 99, at the peak of an Overlord tier boss . Even though she was completely weakened when she became his pet, she had already reached Level 60 . It was possible that Isabella had regained more than half of her true capabilities .
