Creating a Different World - Chapter 2673

[Chapter 2673 Stone Giant]

How could Lena be in a good mood at this time? Too lazy to speak, she raised her hand to push away Meili and looked directly at Jia Zhengjin.

Meili was not angry. She and Tatanil both felt that “Captain Cohen” was a bit too much. How could he treat a girl like this?

But it was not convenient to say more. It seemed that there was some agreement between the two. Otherwise, how could this girl of noble status be willing to listen to the captain’s orders?

Curious as they were, the two did not ask more questions.

Jia Zhengjin jumped off the back of the shadow leopard as if nothing had happened. After glancing at Lena, he said to everyone: “Okay! Now that we have arrived at the Strange Rock Forest, let’s hurry up and do the task! In order to complete the task as soon as possible, we will split into two groups. Meili, Tatanil!”

The two people who were called came over immediately.

“You two go over there to pick rock mushrooms, and wait here after you finish.” Jia Zhengjin ordered, “This is our gathering place! I’ll take her to explore the strange rock forest. We’ll go our separate ways and see you later!”

“Exploring the strange rock forest is a bit dangerous,” Meili said, “Why don’t you let her follow Tatanil to pick rock mushrooms, and I’ll go explore the forest with you?”

First, she took into account Lena’s noble status. If something happened, it would be very likely that the adventure group would provoke powerful enemies; second, she was somewhat selfish and hoped that she could accompany Captain Cohen.

But Jia Zhengjin refused without hesitation: “No! You and Tatanil pick rock mushrooms, and I’ll take her to explore. That’s it! Now split up and act.”

“Oh” Although she was a little unwilling, Meili could only nod helplessly.

Although she and Tatanil were both deputy captains, they still had to obey the captain’s orders!

The two female adventurers tied their war horses nearby, took down the backpacks and picking tools, and moved towards the rock.

With the shadow leopard here, there is no need to worry about others stealing the war horses!

Those with low strength cannot beat the shadow leopard, and those with strong strength disdain petty theft. Unless you encounter a high-level thief, but the probability in broad daylight is so low that it can be ignored. That profession is basically a night walker.

After Meili and Tatanil left, Jia Zhengjin turned to Lena: “Come on! Let’s explore the depths of the forest. Take the animal skin paper and pen. With your background, you must be able to read and draw pictures, right?”

“Of course, who do you think I am?” Lena snorted coldly and took the props.

“Do you need me to teach you how to record the exploration content?”

“These things are the basis of the school’s practical courses. Are you humiliating me? How dare you question me?” Lena wanted to get angry, but she remembered her purpose and tried to hold back.

Jia Zhengjin smiled and nodded: “That’s good, so I don’t have to spend the effort to teach you. Let’s go!”

Lena snorted lightly and followed Jia Zhengjin closely. The two entered the forest one after the other.

The Strange Rock Forest is actually not very dangerous. The only challenging thing is probably the stone giant hiding in the depths of the forest.

This stone giant is hidden in the Strange Rock Forest and is considered the only magical beast. So far, no one has discovered its hiding place, and no one has encountered it.

Generally speaking, you will be fine if you explore the Strange Rock Forest casually. As long as you don’t deliberately provoke the stone giant, you can leave safely.

However, Jia Zhengjin came here on purpose to find the stone giant. With a virtual map, he can easily reach the hiding place of the stone giant through the icon.

So the route was quickly planned. First, he took Lena to survey the terrain of the Strange Rock Forest normally, draw maps and record the distribution of animals, plants and other resources in the area.

This kind of close-range exploration mission updates the data about once a year. Some places remain unchanged all year round, while the environment in some places often changes due to various problems. Data updates are particularly important for the Adventurer Guild.

Lena should be an excellent student in school. She is very serious about drawing maps and exploring regional resources, and her records are clear.

The two of them went all the way to the depths of the forest and saw that they had reached the end.

Further ahead was a bare rock area, with no green plants, only stones all over the ground.

“Okay!” Lena finished recording and rolled up the animal skin paper. “Mission completed, you can evacuate!”

“Wait!” Jia Zhengjin pointed to the front, “That rock area is very suspicious, I want to go over and check it out. Although this side is out of the forest, it is still classified as the strange rock forest area, and no place can be missed!”

Lena glanced at the rock area and thought, what kind of information can there be in such a place? Just add a stroke on the map, isn’t it okay?

But Jia Zhengjin had already strode forward, and she had no choice but to take out the animal skin paper and follow him again.

Jia Zhengjin clearly saw the location of the stone giant through the virtual map and ran straight to it.

The large and small rocks in the area were uneven and steep. Most people would definitely not take the initiative to enter, but he kept jumping in and quickly entered the center of the rock area, just landing at the red dot representing the stone giant.

Lena stood outside the rock area, frowning and staring at Jia Zhengjin, while drawing the situation of the rock area with a pen.

In her opinion, there was no need to waste energy to drill into a place where there was no grass.

The stone giant is a relatively neutral monster. If you don’t provoke it, it won’t attack you.

Jia Zhengjin came to its side, looking like he was exploring, but in fact he poked the stone giant’s body with his iron spear, and he did it very hard. This

was obviously regarded as an attack, which immediately annoyed the sleeping stone giant.

“Boom!” The ground suddenly shook violently, and the rock began to tremble and rise.

“What’s wrong?” Lena was startled and a little confused, “What happened?”

When she couldn’t understand the situation, Jia Zhengjin turned around and jumped quickly, leaving the rock area in three or two steps, and quickly appeared in front of her: “There is something going on, record it quickly!”

“Record what?” Lena looked back blankly, stunned, and stayed where she was.

A huge humanoid monster appeared in the rock area, roaring angrily.

If you look closely, you can find that there is a strange sphere on the monster’s waist, as if it contains magic, releasing red energy, connecting a large number of rocks like meridians, forming this huge monster in front of you.

Moreover, there seems to be a pair of big eyes in the middle of the sphere, looking at the direction of Jia Zhengjin and Lena.

When the target is locked, the stone giant will move. It is about fifteen or sixteen meters high, just like a Transformer. One foot directly stepped over from the inside and fell hard on the position of Jia Zhengjin and Lena.

Lena’s reaction is still very fast. She jumped to the side and turned around to see Jia Zhengjin easily avoiding it. She wondered why this hateful guy was not stepped to death?

Then she thought, no! He was trampled to death, what should I do with my necklace?
