Chapter 334: Chapter 315: Who is this person?
On a picturesque island, coconut trees formed a forest, and the breeze was gentle.
Beneath those towering coconut trees were hermit crabs the size of calves, level 29, densely covering the area.
The waves washed over the fine sand, reaching Lin Yi’s ankles.
At this moment, Lin Yi was staring dumbfounded at the surrounding scenery, with a question flashing through his mind:
"Where is this?"
But around Lin Yi, there were only those hermit crabs with heavy shells, making a tooth-grating "crack~" sound.
Oh, and the sound of waves crashing in from afar.
Lin Yi immediately opened the quest list, which displayed:
[Hidden Quest] Find the Lost Treasure.
Quest Requirement: Spirit Awakening Pearl 0/1
Quest Description: Find the Spirit Awakening Pearl lost during the Anti-Magic War. There are rumors that the [Spirit Awakening Pearl] once belonged to Tan Jun, the Clan Leader of the Soul Servant Race.
You can go to [Xinquan City] to find further clues.
"Spirit Awakening Pearl?"
"Xinquan City?"
Lin Yi had no impression of this Spirit Awakening Pearl.
But this so-called [Xinquan City] sounded familiar, though he couldn’t recall from where.
Lin Yi then quickly opened the map, only to find that apart from his current location, the rest of the map was shrouded in darkness.
However, Lin Yi still saw from the map that his current position was called: Crescent Island.
There was a marking in the area Lin Yi was in, with the words: Crescent, and the word ’Island’ was faintly visible.
"What kind of place is this Crescent Island?"
Lin Yi rummaged through his limited memory but couldn’t recall what this "Crescent Island" was.
"Could it be an unknown hidden map?"
Since he couldn’t remember anything useful, Lin Yi didn’t bother pondering.
At this moment, Lin Yi remembered that he seemed to have gained some new item when he accepted the quest.
Lin Yi opened his backpack and immediately saw the new piece of equipment:
Stealth Ring

Lin Yi was astonished as he looked at the equipment in front of him, a Stealth Ring?
Isn’t this just for altering one’s identity?
At first, Lin Yi wasn’t sure where he was, but now upon seeing this equipment, he was almost certain that he was in another country’s game zone.
No wonder everything here seemed so unfamiliar.
Lin Yi thought for a moment and then decided to equip it...
......
Meanwhile, in another corner of the small island, a man in armor, holding a large shield, was currently bracing against a hermit crab king with a body as large as an elephant, roaring furiously:
"Xingyu, what are you doing? Heal me quickly!"
At this moment, we can see that on top of the head of the warrior named "Beat and Go," his health was rapidly decreasing:
"-399"
"-297"
"-294"
...
And not far behind him, a woman in a priest robe stood there, her small face flushed, waving the magic staff in her hand:
"Healing Technique"
A ray of Holy Light fell on the warrior’s head:
"+1697"
Beat and Go hurriedly shouted:
"That’s it, heal me right when the skill cooldown ends."
"Everyone else, stop dawdling, attack!"
Then he immediately grabbed his shield and fiercely struck the hermit crab king:
"Shield Strike"
"-452"
The priest named Xingyu nodded repeatedly upon being told:
"Yes, oppa, I got it."
On the other side, behind a man named Kwon Sang-woo, a ghostly shadow was floating.
And Kwon Sang-woo’s hands were moving rapidly, quickly completing the sealing and pointing at the hermit crab king:
"Go!"
"Child Ghost·Double Heavy Strike"
Immediately, the child ghost behind him emitted a creepy scream, then attached itself to the hermit crab king’s shell, with a hideous face and clenched fists, heavily pounding on it like a bronze bell:
"Dong! Dong!"
"-1450"
"-1250"
Two huge damage numbers floated above the hermit crab king’s head successively.
At the same time, an Ice Arrow suddenly descended from the sky, directly piercing into the hermit crab king’s body and melting:
"Ice Arrow"
"Boom!"
"-2426" Slowdown~
A woman named Zhi Shan, holding a magic staff, was coldly staring this way, a massive chill steadily gathering towards the staff in her hand...
Behind the Hermit Crab King, a shadowy figure suddenly appeared like a phantom, then leaped into the air.
A samurai sword shimmered dazzlingly in the sunlight, enveloped by fierce flames all around it.
As the figure descended, the flaming samurai sword directly pierced into the exposed body of the Hermit Crab King:
"Ninja Fire Needle"
"Pssh"
"-2987" Burn~
At this moment, the Hermit Crab King’s health just dropped to 15%, instantly going berserk!
It angrily swung its thick crab claws, and "Hit and Run" at the forefront was smashed away by the Hermit Crab King:
"Bang!"
"-1244"
Health plummeted.
Having lost the meat shield restraining it, the Hermit Crab King roared and charged towards the man named Kwon Sang-woo.
Kwon Sang-woo’s expression changed, his hands quickly forming seals:
"Child Ghost·Guardian"
The child ghost behind him crossed its hands to protect Kwon Sang-woo, but under the giant crab claws, it only paused for a moment before being shattered instantly.
Having lost the protection of the child ghost, Kwon Sang-woo was struck by the crab claw that followed:
"Bang!"
"-2130"
Kwon Sang-woo’s health dropped drastically, causing him to swiftly retreat.
Just then, an ice arrow landed on the Hermit Crab King’s head...
The Hermit Crab King shook off the ice fragments from its head, turning its gaze to the woman named Zhi Shan.
"Hit and Run" saw this and shouted:
"Zhi Shan, run!"
However, the Hermit Crab King was already three steps away from the female mage Zhi Shan, raising its thick crab claw:
"Clack Clack~"
Seeing Zhi Shan about to be struck by the crab claw while in a daze, the figure holding the samurai sword appeared once more, shouting angrily:
"Don’t bully my Zhi Shan."
Then, the flaming samurai sword in his hand slashed fiercely across the raised crab claw:
"Ninja Flame Slash"
"Pssh"
"-2199" Block~
"Zhi Shan, dodge!"
Seeing its attack interrupted, the Hermit Crab King turned its fury towards the suddenly appearing man, smashing him away with another crab claw:
"-2451"
At this moment, the young priest Xing Yu hurried over, grabbing the female mage Zhi Shan’s hand:
"Run!"
With its targets lost again, the Hermit Crab King instantly set its sights on the two women not far away.
The Hermit Crab King took several long strides, catching up to the two in the blink of an eye.
The others saw this and couldn’t help but panic:
"No!"
With the defenses of these two women, they wouldn’t withstand even one blow from the Hermit Crab King.
Dying would mean a level-down penalty!
The others wanted to rush in for a rescue, but they were all low on health, they’d die upon the attempt.
They had underestimated the Hermit Crab King’s power from the start, not expecting its berserk state to be so terrifying.
Just as the two women were about to meet their end under the giant crab claw, a shadow pierced the Hermit Crab King’s body with a longsword:
"Pssh"
"Arcane Impact!"
"-5169"
System: Triggered passive paralysis effect, target’s actions restricted, duration 1 second.
The previously rampaging Hermit Crab King instantly collapsed, paralyzed in place.
Then, a dazzling display of sword glint:
"Basic Attack"
"-2481"
"-3941" Critical Strike~
"-2475"
"-4012" Critical Strike~
At this moment, the Hermit Crab King’s body suddenly moved, and the figure quickly retreated:
A light orb exploded on the Hermit Crab King’s body:
"Bang!"
"Arcane Missile"
"-5241"
The furious Hermit Crab King rushed towards the shadow, but after just two steps, it stopped at the spot amidst a loud explosion:
"Arcane Burst"
"-6012" Critical Strike~
Health bar empty...
"Bang!"
Until the equipment and materials exploded all over the Hermit Crab King’s surroundings, Kwon Sang-woo and the others hadn’t recovered from the shock of that scene.
"Hit and Run" gulped down a hard swallow, muttering:
"Who is this person?"
