Chapter 665 - 433 Straight Through the Giant Group
Chapter 665: Chapter 433: Straight Through the Giant Group! Chapter 665 -433: Straight Through the Giant Group! “Is anyone there?”
Alvis sensed the slightly dissipating magical fluctuations before him and looked somewhat troubled.
Could it be that someone was controlling those rioting Earth Element Giants in Caspar Valley?
Although he was a Legendary being, he was after all just a Ranger.
Detecting such faint magic fluctuations was already quite an achievement, but Alvis could not determine who the magic belonged to.
However, regardless, someone lurking around at this time definitely meant no good!
He would have to be more vigilant tomorrow!
Alvis looked down at the groups of Earth Element Giants wandering in the valley and thought silently to himself.
…
Meanwhile, in another camp nearby,
Lis wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, feeling somewhat alarmed.
The sensation that came in the instant the Reconnaissance Puppet disappeared was very familiar to Lis—it was the aura of a Legendary Strongman.
Was there really a Legendary Strongman secretly following the squad heading back to the Elf Royal Court?
It seems I need to be even more cautious!
Lis pondered silently within his heart.
Despite his confidence in his own strength and magic, he still needed to be cautious when facing a Legendary Strongman.
The death threat brought by the Legendary Vampire Benfica still seemed as if it was just yesterday, especially now that Lis was on his way to the Elf Royal Court.
He had to be vigilant!
Lis didn’t want to reveal all his abilities just yet.
Keeping backup plans for unforeseen situations is always wise.
As Lis was pondering, Ricardo returned with the reconnaissance team.
A moment later, the plan for tomorrow’s action was relayed to everyone.
The expressions of everyone else in the Elf squad were quite solemn, as Ricardo had chosen to pass directly through Caspar Valley tomorrow.
Although many in the team had not seen the multitude of Earth Element Giants in the valley, they had heard about the situation from their companions.
With such a number of Earth Element Giants, the journey tomorrow would not be easy.
However, Ricardo had considerable authority within the team, likely because the Elves knew the situation at the Elf Royal Court was not good and all wanted to return there as soon as possible.
Therefore, no one questioned Ricardo’s decision, which seemed somewhat risky.
As evening approached, Lis noticed that the Elves in the team were making some preparations and, after arranging watch posts for the night, everyone began to rest.
From this alone, one could see the elite nature of this Elf Guard team; nearly no one showed signs of much nervousness or panic.
Cecil seemed a bit nervous, but she was clearly much more mature than she had been in her time at Nelin City, after experiencing many things.
Lis wasn’t too concerned, to be honest. Even without revealing his mage abilities, he could protect himself and Cecil among those Earth Element Giants.
Compared to other Elemental Giants, Earth Element Giants have the strongest defense, and due to their heavy bodies and hard shells, the impact of their movements is also quite terrifying.
Add to that their mastery over many Earth Element Magic spells, their capabilities in direct combat are very strong.
If it weren’t for the Giants’ extremely slow speed, they would be one of the most terrifying Extraordinary Monsters.
Lis could also understand why Ricardo chose to go directly through Caspar Valley.
While those Earth Element Giants move slowly, in a certain sense their perception is no weaker than other demons.
Being attuned to ground vibrations, they clearly perceive anyone passing by them, and their excellent eyesight along with their heavy stone throws also enables them to target enemies in mid-air.
If they only encountered a few Earth Element Giants, they could attempt to fly over the valley, but the sheer number of giants throwing boulders would be like a rainstorm, impossible to dodge.
Rather than taking such a risk, it was better to forcefully cross on the ground.
In this way, the massive bodies of the Earth Element Giants could in some sense also help shield the Elves from some attacks.
However, Lis wasn’t too concerned about whether the Elf team could get through Caspar Valley.
Even if danger arose, having this legendary Elf lurking in the shadows meant there wouldn’t be any problems.
Lis was now more curious about the changes in Caspar Valley.
Why were there so many Earth Element Giants here?
In his past life, after the destruction of the Elf Royal Court, the Elf Royal Court and surrounding areas were taken under control by the Elf Kingdom.
It would be quite difficult for the average person to access the ruins of the Elf Royal Court.
Therefore, missions around the Elf Royal Court were rare, and thus players were mostly in other areas of the Elf Kingdom.
Lis was not aware of the specific details in Caspar Valley in his past life; when he passed by then, there were no anomalies.
But now, the presence of such an exaggerated number of Earth Element Giants made it hard for Lis to believe there was nothing unusual going on.
Lis highly suspected that the anomaly in Caspar Valley might be related to the Elf Royal Court.
It wasn’t that he thought it was Demogorgon’s doing; if it really was, it would be quite sloppy.
Lis was more inclined to believe that some incident had disturbed these Earth Element Giants, causing those that had been sleeping underground to awaken and become very agitated.
These Earth Element Giants did not possess intelligence but acted on instinct, so it was impossible for Lis to get any useful information from them.
