135: Golden Beetle

All the blades in the sky were blocked by the light shield formed by the shield, kept outside the light shield.

Under the sunlight, the blades constantly flickered with a cold light, giving people a chilling sensation.

“You…”

Looking at Li Changkong, who was protecting her, Fire Rongrong’s expression was a bit unusual.

“It’s fine now. This beetle is just a Gold-level monster, not that difficult to deal with.”

Li Changkong thought Fire Rongrong was scared, so he comforted her, not noticing her slightly flushed cheeks at all.

“Gold-level?”

Hearing this, Fire Rongrong quickly dodged away.

Several teammates nearby had already hidden far away the moment the Gold Beetle appeared.

This Gold-level boss was a terrifying existence for them.

Facing such danger, they had instinctively dodged, only Li Changkong quickly approached.

“Rongrong, come over quickly. Let’s go back first. Other matters can be discussed at length.”

Zheng He shouted, wanting to call Fire Rongrong away.

But Fire Rongrong clearly had no intention of leaving; this mission was very important to her.

“No matter what, I’ll try first.”

A determined look appeared in Fire Rongrong’s eyes.

After saying this, she took out her staff again, and a layer of blue light actually appeared in her eyes.

This layer of light rapidly grew from light blue to deep blue, and a chill simultaneously spread from her body.

“Come on.”

A low roar came from Fire Rongrong’s mouth.

That chill quickly gathered, forming a layer of frost on her body.

And behind her, a huge phantom actually appeared, like a woman in a long robe, covered in frost.

“Frost Shadow.”

Fire Rongrong roared, and then a burst of cold air erupted.

In that instant, it instantly froze the Gold-level boss.

The Gold Beetle, which was poised to attack, had all its movements frozen by the ice.

“Can you attack?”

Fire Rongrong looked at Li Changkong beside her and asked.

“Yes!”

When the Gold Beetle was frozen, Li Changkong had already rushed to the forefront.

After he loudly spoke that “Yes!”, the terrifying pressure of Tianzi Sword had already shaken the entire scene.

This time, he had attacked with full force, not concealing his strength at all. The surrounding small monsters were actually stunned.

They all froze in place, without even a thought of acting.

And Li Changkong had already jumped onto the Gold Beetle, activating Dragon Blood Boiling, and with a Heavy Strike, the Tianzi Sword in his hand deeply pierced into the Gold Beetle’s carapace.

A golden-yellow blood, accompanied by Li Changkong’s drawn sword, splattered onto the ground.

The blood was now scattered everywhere, and Li Changkong’s attacks continuously landed on the Gold Beetle.

One hit, two hits, three hits.

His strength value was already sufficient, and the health bar above the Gold Beetle’s head rapidly dropped.

Fire Rongrong’s control time wasn’t too long, but with those five seconds, Li Changkong managed to deplete most of the Gold Beetle’s health bar.

Li Changkong was also lucky; the top of its head happened to be the Gold Beetle’s weakest point.

If he had attacked other armored parts, it would have been impossible to cause such high damage, and even normal armor penetration would have been extremely difficult.

“Roar, roar, roar.”

After the Gold Beetle jumped up, it roared a few more times.

Although its health bar was now at rock bottom, it still struggled continuously.

But this struggle did not last too long, as Li Changkong’s eyes narrowed.

Taking advantage of the moment it looked up, the Tianzi Sword in his hand flew out, piercing through the Gold Beetle’s body with one strike, smashing it onto the ground.

“Congratulations, you have slain the Blade Beetle and gained 200,000 experience.”

“Congratulations, you have received a reward, the Gold-grade equipment Desolate Armor.”

Another voice rang in his ears, and the Gold Beetle in front of him was finally slain by Li Changkong.

Fire Rongrong also breathed a sigh of relief; at least this trouble was resolved.

However, Li Changkong did not keep the equipment he obtained; instead, he gave it to Fire Rongrong.

The quality of this equipment was average, and Li Changkong’s own armor was also Gold-grade, so he naturally didn’t need it.

However, the experience provided by this Blade Beetle greatly surprised Li Changkong.

Killing a Blade Beetle by transcending levels is inherently rare, and normally the experience value would be around 100,000, but now he had received 200,000.

Fire Rongrong, standing by, briefly explained this matter.

This is a characteristic of the Small World; if you kill a boss, the experience gained is doubled compared to a dungeon.

In addition, there are also various hidden treasures in the Small World.

These things are basically controlled by those Families, and if they don't let go, others basically can't get them.

Those people are not good people either; the reason they guard the Small World is because they have their own little plans.

The officials are quite clear about this point, but they haven't overly interfered.

If they interfere too much, it wouldn't be a good thing for them, and it might even cause a lot of trouble.

Li Changkong didn't say much here, but many people knew what he was thinking.

From the current perspective, many of the things that have happened are beyond what many people could have imagined.

After the Gold Beetle died, the remaining beetles also quickly dispersed.

The scene, which was originally full of danger, now returned to normal.

At least from the outside, everything was normal now.

“What is your true strength?”

Just then, Zheng He suddenly turned around and loudly questioned Li Changkong.

“What is his strength? Does it have anything to do with you? Don’t forget, he was our savior just now.”

Fire Rongrong had long been annoyed with him, and before Li Changkong could speak, she spoke first.

“If he had acted earlier, we wouldn’t have had so much trouble.”

“He clearly has the strength but chose to hide it, showing no trust in our team at all.”

Zheng He said loudly at this point.

In fact, anyone with an discerning eye could tell that what Zheng He was saying now was completely baseless.

“You were the one who didn’t let me go before, and now you’re the one telling me to go? Have you said everything?”

“If you’re not convinced, you can hit me.”

Li Changkong’s gaze fell on Zheng He, and this time, he no longer had his previous politeness.
