Online game: As a dad, it’s reasonable to hit 999 with one hit, right?

This time, Elena was obviously unhappy. She seemed to have activated some special props and consumables, and her flying speed was more than twice as fast as before!

In just a few breaths, she flew to Xiaoyun's side. At this moment, Xiaoyun was trying to use the long sword in her hand to stab the weak point on the giant's right calf, but because the giant was shaking too violently, she never found a suitable opportunity.

The surroundings suddenly became dark. Looking up, Xiaoyun saw the giant's palm coming towards him again.

Maybe it was because her strength was depleted too quickly, but Xiaoyun's reaction speed obviously couldn't keep up this time. She felt a fatal stagnation.

Elena grabbed Xiaoyun's wrist and retreated quickly. At the same time, a hurricane suddenly arose and brought the two of them to a safe area.

The huge palm hit nothing, and the two women flew farther and farther with the help of the strong wind, and soon left the attack range of the World Boss.

At this point, the World Boss challenge field is empty!

All the players left, and the plains that had been in chaos a moment ago began to return to calm.

Dozens of earth dragons drilled back into the ground, the magma that had been gushing out hundreds of meters subsided, and the cracked earth recovered.

Apart from the chaotic elemental factors around and the potholes and scars on the ground, everything seemed as if the canyon barrier had not yet been broken.

The level 60 World Boss snorted, picked up the mace on the ground casually, and then walked to the giant beast skeleton in the center of the plain and sat down as if nothing had happened.

He once again became the powerful god waiting for players to challenge him.

A deity known as the Guardian of the Earth.

Tang Yu and Feng Chen quickly flew to the sides of Elena and Xiaoyun, and soon Dunshan also came to support them. However, Huang Dachui and others had just stood in the center of the chaos and suffered heavy damage, so they had disappeared at this time.

Xiaoyun's chest heaved violently, she blinked rapidly, and then leaned against the canyon wall behind her.

Elena first glanced at Xiaoyun, then turned back and looked at the world boss sitting in the center of the plain.

No one spoke for a moment.

After a long while, Elena spoke quietly, "We can only wait for the next challenge. We seem to have underestimated the strength of the level 60 World Boss."

As she spoke, Elena glanced at Xiaoyun again.

The girl bit her lip and said nothing, only occasionally raising her eyes to peek at Elena. However, Elena's eyes were always on the girl, so whenever Xiaoyun looked up, he would meet the female elf's gaze.

Feng Chen breathed a sigh of relief and responded to what Elena had just said.

"Yeah, the previous world bosses were all taken down by my brother Lin. Seeing how he chopped them down, I thought this time would be very easy."

I thought Elena would continue with this topic, but unexpectedly the female elf suddenly turned around and looked at them. After hesitating for a while, she spoke.

"Xiao Tang, Xiao Feng, Dunshan... let the two girls talk alone, okay?"

The three of them looked at each other, and Dunshan was the first to nod: "Madam, I will go back first."

Elena nodded.

Then, a burst of black mist dissipated, and Shield Mountain's body disappeared on the spot.

Feng Chen and Tang Yu also left very tactfully, arm in arm.

At this point, only two women, Elena and Xiaoyun, were left near a cave in the canyon.

To be honest, neither Elena nor Xiaoyun had thought that one day they would be alone with each other in this way. Although they had sent the three people away, the two women seemed even more embarrassed. They looked at each other, and no one knew how to start the conversation.

After about three minutes, it was Xiaoyun who spoke first.

"Do you have a lot of questions for me?"

Elena was silent for a moment, then shook her head: "He will probably be very curious about you."

Xiao Yun paused for a moment, then laughed: "Including this time, I owe you two lives."

I learned from Lin Chen that it was Elena who arranged for Altaïr to protect me during the last wedding. At that time, I was not a player yet, and I did not have much room to resist facing the Ruins.

"You saved me before, and you've helped him many times, so it's only right that I save you," Elena replied.

After that, the two fell into silence again.

All I could hear was the heavy breathing of the World Boss on the plain.

"Why are you working so hard?" Elena suddenly asked.

Xiaoyun took something out of his pocket, quickly grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and started eating them by himself.

"In the Land of the Hunting God, there's a price to pay to become a player from an NPC." Xiaoyun spit out melon seed shells. "Similar to the [Reputation] or some special stat you gain from killing monsters, I also have it. Killing World Bosses is the best way for me to obtain it."

This was obviously the first time Elena had heard of this. She pressed on, "What if we can't get it?"

"If I don't get enough stats within the specified time, I will die, and there will be no resurrection."

Elena was stunned. She was a second-round player, so she knew that players would return to the real world after death, but Xiaoyun said that he could not be resurrected after death. She didn't know if it was what she understood.

As expected, Xiaoyun continued, "There's only one way for all NPCs in the Land of the Hunting God to return to the real world, and that's when the game shuts down completely. At that time, we'll return to the real world based on the rewards we earned from completing NPC-exclusive quests. By then, we NPCs will likely gain even more abilities than most high-powered players."

"Then why don't you wait until the game shuts down?" Elena asked, puzzled. "The Hunting God Land doesn't have much time left. It could collapse at any moment. The risk of you becoming a player now is even greater."

"But I can't wait. I have to choose to become a player. I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until the server of Hunting God Land is shut down..." Xiaoyun said in a low voice.

Elena was silent. She thought of the time when she and Lin Chen got married. Those Ruins broke through the air and killed many NPCs in the Eternal Skyspace.

According to Xiaoyun, once an NPC dies, they will not be able to be resurrected. They are truly dead and can never return to reality...

But if you choose to become a player, you won’t be afraid of this matter. Even if you die, you can return to reality.

"There is someone I must see, I can't die... Even if I die, I have to return to reality." Xiaoyun threw all the melon seed shells in her hand to the ground, then she stood up and picked up the long knife in her hand again.

"What are you going to do?" Elena asked with a frown.

"That's not enough. Even if I can't kill him, as long as I deal more damage, I'll get more stats. With those stats, I can truly become a player."

As he said that, Xiaoyun actually planned to continue entering the challenge field alone.

"You will die." Elena held Xiaoyun back. "You said you're not a true player yet. If you die in the challenge arena, you still can't return to the real world."

Xiaoyun was indeed hesitant, but she gave a wry smile: "It's the same outcome anyway, and I may not die."

As she said that, she shook Elena off.

The female elf tried many times but couldn't stop her.

Even at the end, Xiaoyun looked at Elena with a complicated expression: "Sister, why do you care about my life or death?"

Elena looked at Xiaoyun without saying anything.

Xiaoyun continued to ask: "You clearly know that I like your man, wouldn't you..."

"Then you can't die." Elena suddenly interrupted Xiaoyun.

Xiaoyun was stunned, obviously not knowing what Elena meant.

"If you want to go in, I'll go with you." Elena took out her feather and said to Xiaoyun with a smile.
