Chapter 38 - Come At Me, Stone Golem!

Chapter 38 Come At Me, Stone Golem!

Su Hao continued to walk further into the depths of the cave, and Qin Shuang held her Holy Light Torch while following closely beside him.

Her greatest fear was getting lost if she did not pay any attention.

At that point, Su Hao had just disappeared through a turn in the cave’s passageway.

Qin Shuang was a little surprised to see that and immediately shouted, “Wait for me!”

The next second. “Agh!”

She felt something hook her ankle in the dark and she tripped out of fear.

The moment her body came into contact with the hard floor, red blood began flowing from the cuts on her knees and ankles !

The red blood was a ghastly sight in the dying light of the Holy Light Torch, which subsequently fell to the ground and was extinguished in an instant.

as

The entire underground cave once again fell into endless darkness!

Su Hao’s figure also disappeared all of a sudden, and not even his footsteps could be heard.

Upon seeing that, she hurriedly searched for flints from her clothes in an attempt to light up the Holy Light Torch again.

However, she could not find it regardless of how hard she tried.

She felt that it was because she had lost it while fighting the Sea Dragon. With darkness surrounding her at that moment, the fear of the unknown arose spontaneously and it had never been as strong as it was before.

Then, a warm hand picked her up, and a low and slightly cold voice sounded in her ear.

“Are you sure you’re here to help me?”

Qin Shuang’s eyes lit up.

It was Su Hao. ‘He came back to look for me! Turns out that he’s not as cold and heartless as I thought…’

A strange emotion arose in her heart immediately after and she unconsciously lowered her eyes to say, “I’m sorry.”

Su Hao had earlier recalled what happened in his previous life at the turn in front.

He remembered encountering two forks in the road after walking another ten meters—the one on the left led to the underground ocean. There were all kinds of high-level beasts in the underground ocean but no mutant crystal.

Su Hao almost lost his life there.

He was lucky enough to escape, so he immediately took a turn and went to the right tunnel, where he found that the right side was the mine with the mutant crystals.

In his previous life, however, he still failed to defeat the level 20 Stone Golems that had been sleeping in the mine for thousands of years. In the end, all he could do was escape in defeat.

WIth his rebirth, he believed that even 20 wild beasts that were above level 20 would only be able to survive for 30 seconds in front of the Sacred Night Bugs that were already god-level.

He wanted to verify if it was the passage to this mine, but he did not expect to encounter another situation after turning right…

He had no choice but to turn back.

At this moment, he supported Qin Shuang as they walked forward. Although the Holy Light Torch was no longer usable, Su Hao still remembered the way.

He knew that no other monsters would appear as long as he kept quiet, walked slowly, and did not pick the crystals with his bare hands.

That way, they could quickly kill the level 20 Stone Golems, obtain the mutant crystals, and escape the mine.

As he thought of that, he lowered his eyes and held Qin Shuang’s arm while telling her indifferently, “From now on, don’t do anything unless I say something. Understood?”

At the end of his cold voice, Qin Shuang grabbed Su Hao’s wrist and felt a little wronged as she pouted and said, “I know.”

Indeed, she would have been dead if not for Su Hao…

She had no place to voice her opinion, and she could not drag Su Hao down any longer.

As Su Hao advised, the two of them did not collect any of the countless mutant crystals embedded in the rock wall.

After all, the crystals in the mine would no longer attract any monsters if they were collected after the Stone Golems were killed.

The mutant crystals outside the mine were a cover used by the beings that guarded the real mutant crystals to protect it from miners.

If they could not resist the temptation, they would attract beasts of a higher grade, which might eventually cause the final Stone Golem Boss to awaken-a highly unrewarding venture indeed.

Qin Shuang was stunned as she journeyed further in with Su Hao.

She did not expect that everything would be exactly as Su Hao said it would be. They did not encounter any more monsters that would affect their progress regardless of which way they turned.

Little did she imagine that Su Hao could actually analyze it so well on his first time there. It was almost as if he had already done it once before.

She was so shocked by his ability that her admiration for Su Hao grew stronger and stronger as she followed Su Hao closely.

Finally, a flash of light appeared in their field of vision.

They knew that they had reached the mine at long last!

Black hills were everywhere, and countless colorful mutant crystals were embedded in the mountain wall!

However, the ink-black mine in front of him was as silent as an extinct volcano.

Upon seeing that, Su Hao’s eyes narrowed and he smirked ever so slightly

Knowing that it was the Stone Golems’ trick, he called out in a low voice, “Sacred Night Bugs!”

More than 300,000 Sacred Night Bugs curled up into a huge black mass and swarmed toward the hills like a tide!

Qin Shuang’s pupils trembled when she saw that and she could not help but yell, “Su Hao, what are you doing?”

The moment he finished speaking, the black hill, which had been silent and pitch-black just a moment ago, actually began to move! Even more terrifying was that two pairs of human-like pupils had appeared on the black hill!

At the same time, the black hill mumbled, “Who is it? How dare you break into the mutant crystal mine!”

Seconds later, four huge legs grew out of the entire hill and rushed toward the two of them!

Qin Shuang’s heart was overwhelmed with fear when she saw that and her entire body was trembling uncontrollably!

‘What the hell was that thing!’ She hid behind Su Hao and screamed out of instinct, “AGHHHHHHHHHHH!”

Su Hao, on the other hand, stood in front of her with a cold expression. It was as if he could remain calm even as the world was about to be destroyed.

He merely stood there quietly in a steadfast manner without taking one step back.

The black ore mountain began moving even faster!

All of a sudden, the entire mutant crystal mine began to shake and a strong wind blew as if the ground was going to collapse anytime!

The next second, Su Hao extended his right foot behind him. With his body to the side, he stretched out his hand to block Qin Shuang behind him, and the robe under his armor swayed elegantly by the wind.

Su Hao then grinned, and he looked up as a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes. He then spoke in an indifferent tone, “Come at me, Stone Golem.”
