Translator: 549690339

Looking at the blue-quality “Tusk Fang Stinger” in Song Jian’s hand, Lin Sheng’s eyes were full of little stars;

“I’ll take you there!” Lin Sheng said directly: “It’s just ahead, that boss has been injured, lost a leg, and its vitality points are less than half left, looking very desperate.”

Song Jian followed behind Lin Sheng, running and asking: “Why didn’t you finish it off yourself, a level 15 boss will definitely drop good loot!”

“I can’t beat it, it can see through my stealth, I can’t even get close to it…” Lin Sheng said somewhat helplessly;

Soon, the two of them arrived at a small residential area, in a central pavilion, Song Jian saw the heavily injured boss.

The boss looked like an enormous beastman, with blue skin covered in lumps, two tusks protruding from its lips, and sanguine eyes emitting a bloodthirsty glow, looking very ferocious.

Its massive body was squatting in the pavilion, looking like a meat mountain. Next to it, stood four wooden stakes, half a man’s height, carved with complex magic runes on the surface. Rings of energy condensed into light, slowly rotating around the stakes;

One stake was enveloped in a green glow, one stake was enveloped in a crimson glow, another stake was encompassed in a gray energy glow, the last one flickered with tiny currents;

[LV15 Mutated Shaman Beast – Kuru Tutu] (Elite): Vitality Points 680/2800, Spirit Points: 250/800; Traits: Regeneration, Beast’s Blood Boil; Skills: Summon Totem Pillar, Summon Beast Spirit, Death Ray, Ice Cone.

“This guy is a beastman, huh?” Song Jian stared at the mountain of flesh in the distance, stroking his chin;

“Yes, it looks like a beastman. Do you see those three pillars next to it? Those are totem pillars, they can attack automatically. The damage isn’t high, but they are very troublesome.” Lin Sheng pointed at the three wooden stakes next to the Mutated Shaman Beast;

“Hey, it seems to be healing its wounds!” Song Jian saw that every few seconds, a “+5” green healing figure would jump above the boss’s head, he couldn’t help but say;

“There is a healing totem pillar!” Song Jian pointed at the wooden stake surrounded by green light: “You need to be faster, if it drags on, its vitality points will be fully restored.”

“It’s okay, didn’t you see that it doesn’t have much spirit points left? It looks like it has been through a big fight, you’re really lucky!” Song Jian said;

“Hehe, Brother Song is the lucky one, now it’s yours.” Lin Sheng chuckled.

“Alright, give you the dagger, this boss is mine. The test required me to fight solo, so just guard the perimeter for me. Don’t participate!” As Song Jian spoke, he handed the “Tusk Fang Stinger” to Lin Sheng.

“Don’t worry, Brother Song, 1 know the rules!” Lin Sheng’s face broke out into a grin as he took the dagger, swinging it around a few times, looking thrilled.

Song Jian slowly approached the boss with his sword. As soon as he stood around a dozen meters away from the boss, it stood up.

Despite the imposing pressure from the one-legged boss, Song Jian hesitated whether picking this boss was a correct choice.

“Human, this is Kuru Tutu’s territory. If you don’t want your soul to be tormented on my Flame Totem forever, leave now!”

The boss even spoke, surprising Song Jian; a monster capable of speech indicating it has consciousness, and a conscious monster is way tougher than a senseless one.

Perhaps perceiving Song Jian’s hesitation, a hint of a smile appeared on Kulu Tutu’s face. Feeling the immense power within this human, Kulu Tutu himself was at a low ebb with barely over 200 spirit points left, just not enough to sustain a fight. Even if he could win, it would be a Pyrrhic victory. He could end up being taken down by an ordinary monster afterward.

“Human, if you leave now, you’ll gain Kuru Tutu’s friendship. I will also give you a gift!” Kuru Tutu continued;

System: Kuru Tutu is offering you a temporary mission, leave territory; Mission requirement: leave the area within one kilometer radius from Kuru Tutu; Mission reward: obtaining Kuru Tutu’s friendship; exquisite totem imprint; Mission failure: permanent reduction of 2 points in all attributes; Do you accept?

Song Jian carefully read through the mission details word by word, and then chose to accept;

As soon as Song Jian accepted, a smile crossed Kuru Tutu’s face, he threw something towards Song Jian;

Song Jian caught it and checked the attributes;

“Exquisite Totem Imprint (Green): Inlay I Accessory, Accessory Attributes: Worn on the body, recovers 1 vitality point per second; can be inlaid on equipment, when inlaid on a helmet, vitality points increase by 100; when inlaid on armor, defense increases by 5 points; when inlaid on leg protectors, spirit points cap increases by 50;”

“Not bad! Don’t know if it can be used as a spirit talisman and inlaid on the Hexagram Array Diagram!” Song Jian thought;

Seeing Song Jian pick up the item and stand still, Kulu Tutu’s face darkened, yelled: “Human, you have already accepted the task 1 assigned. Why haven’t you left? Are you willing to bear the punishment of the beast god?”

Song Jian threw the item into his inventory, lifted his head, glanced at Kuru Tutu, then turned around and ran towards the exit of the residential area;

Seeing Song Jian leaving, Kuru Tutu let out a mocking smile as he slowly sat back down with the help of the pavilion’s pillar: “Stupid human…”

Lin Sheng watched as Song Jian rushed past him, completely baffled, only hearing Song Jian say to him: “Just wait for me for a bit, I’ll be right back!”

Soon, Song Jian’s figure disappeared from Lin Sheng’s vision;

Song Jian kept running forward until a system prompt appeared in front of him, then he stopped;

System: You completed the temporary mission, leaving the territory;

System: You obtained Kuru Tutu’s friendship, you received the item “Exquisite Totem Imprint”;

Seeing that the mission was completed, Song Jian turned around and ran towards the residential area;

“I need to hurry up, if any later, that boss’s vitality points will be fully restored.”

Lin Sheng was a bit confused, standing in place waiting for a few minutes. Soon, he saw Song Jian hurriedly running back from a distance;

“What are you up to?” Lin Sheng asked. His level was too low, Kuru Tutu did not offer him a temporary mission at all. Seeing him, it attacked, scaring him away.

“Doing a mission!” Song Jian said while panting heavily: “Stay here and wait for me. Don’t help when I take action.” Song Jian seemed a little worried and reminded him again;

Seeing that Song Jian was charging back towards him once more, Kuru Tutu’s anger flared up;

“Shameless human!” Kuru Tutu roared in his heart, suddenly standing up;

“Human, honesty is key!” Kuru Tutu seemingly had fire coming out of his eyes, staring at Song Jian, and growled;

Song Jian was stunned, opened the mission column, pointed at the completed mission, and said: “But I completed the mission!”

Kuru Tutu:”…, you have a point!”
