90 A Pleasant Surprise
Su Ming looked at the damage numbers that appeared above the Steel Giant’s head and was speechless for a moment.
Was there only two points of damage? This was the Cloud Piercing Bow.
Even if the Steel Giant had 700 defense, was the damage not a little too low?
If the Elven Archers were to come over, they might not even be able to break through the Steel Giant’s defense.
This Turtle had also seen Su Ming shooting at the Steel Giant. When it saw that the arrow had only hit the Steel Giant’s head and did not even manage to penetrate it, this Turtle could not help but start laughing.
The moment it laughed, Su Ming glared at it, and it quickly covered its mouth.
This was originally a very natural reaction, but it was raining now. If it covered its mouth, the rain would also stop.
The Steel Giant below immediately looked like it was about to move again, and Su Ming quickly gave it a reminder.
Benben reacted and started to rain again, continuing to control the Steel Giant below.
Su Ming looked at the Steel Giant that was controlled by Benben’s rain and could not even move. There was a faint change in his eyes.
He had to admit that his damage was very low.
However, just because the damage was low, it did not mean that he did not have any damage.
Two points at a time. If he could shoot more than 2000 arrows, it was possible for him to kill a Steel Giant.
On the other hand, the Steel Giants’ levels were much higher than his, and they were also elite monsters.
If he could kill one of them, the experience he would get would definitely be very high!
Perhaps, he could even level up a few times!
When he thought of this, Su Ming’s eyes could not help but light up, and excitement and anticipation appeared on his face.
He raised his head and looked at the Turtle in the air, shouting, “How long can you hold on like this?”
When the Turtle heard this question, it tilted its head and thought for a while, then pointed to the sun that was about to set.
Then, he used his tiny meaty claws to draw a circle.
Su Ming understood what it meant-it could still hold on for a long time, at least until tomorrow morning.
As he thought about it, Su Ming no longer hesitated. He drew his bow and nocked an arrow again, then fired in the direction of the Steel Giant he had shot at earlier.
Pa!
With a crisp sound, a two-point damage figure lit up on top of the Steel Giant’s head again.
Su Ming’s expression did not change at all when he saw this. He continued drawing his bow and nocking his arrows.
He slowly picked up the arrows one by one and then directly pulled them out.
The Steel Giant’s HP also began to drop at a slow but steady rate.
The sun set in the west, and a breeze blew in the twilight.
The moon was hanging on the branches, and the forest was rustling. Occasionally, the chirping of birds could be heard.
Once Su Ming pulled out another arrow and shot it out, he cast a glance at the amount of blood on the Steel Giant’s head.
At this time, the Steel Giant’s HP had dropped by more than half.
Looking up, the Turtle in the air seemed to be a little tired and was yawning.
When it saw Su Ming looking at it, it straightened its back and placed its hands on its waist, looking proud.
Su Ming could not help but chuckle and shake his head. His heart ached a little. At the same time, he decided to let this Turtle rest for a few days after the event.
After all, it had just completed its evolution, and he had pulled it out again.
He was probably a little tired from the busy days.
When that thought appeared in his mind, Su Ming did not stop and continued shooting arrows.
The sound of metal being struck rang out one after another, and the Steel Giant’s HP continued to slowly decrease.
Then, the moment the sky turned completely dark, Su Ming drew his bow and nocked an arrow.
An arrow was shot.
Pa!
The Steel Giant’s health bar, which had been left with only a sliver of health since a few minutes ago, had finally been completely reduced to zero!
The huge body fell to the ground with a loud bang. At the same time, a notification instantly appeared in Su Ming’s system.
[Congratulations on killing: Steel Giant * elite monster]
[Obtained experience points reward: 85000]
[Equipment acquired: Steel Shoulder Guard]
Acquired special item: steel mine teleportation token *1
Su Ming quirked his eyebrows, then saw his experience bar increase rapidly.
It did not take long for his experience points to shoot up from half of Level 36 to Level 39.
To Su Ming, it was naturally a small surprise that he had risen two and a half ranks in one go.
However, the bigger surprise was the two items that dropped later.
One was equipment that he should be able to use, and the other was a teleportation token.
As he thought about it, Su Ming quelled some of his excitement and started checking the items in his hands.
[Steel Shoulder Guard]
[Grade: Purple]
[Rarity: Perfect]
[Defense: +200, agility: 15]
When he saw the attributes of the Steel Shoulder Guard, Su Ming’s eyes were filled with surprise.
The grade of the Steel Shoulder Guard had exceeded his expectations.
He had thought that the equipment dropped by such wild monsters would at most be a blue equipment.
However, he did not expect it to be a purple equipment.
Moreover, the quality was perfect.
Su Ming guessed that the reason why such good equipment had dropped was related to the fact that he had killed the Steel Giant, who was more than ten levels higher than him.
In addition, the Steel Giant was an elite monster.
With the two added together, it was not surprising that such a good piece of equipment could be dropped.
As he thought about it, Su Ming looked at another item among the items he had obtained.
[Steel mine teleportation token]
[Description: With this item, you can immediately return to the steel mine no matter where you are. Token teleportation is not allowed in special maps.]
When he saw the description, Su Ming was first slightly stunned, then a look of surprise and joy appeared in his eyes.
At first glance, this token seemed to be a teleportation token with ordinary attributes that could only be used for mining.
However, in reality, its effects were much more powerful than it looked!
If Su Ming was in danger, then this plate that could allow him to be transported anywhere he wanted would be a life-saving talisman!
When he thought of this, Su Ming could not help but arch his eyebrows slightly. He instinctively looked toward the other Steel Giant.
However, after thinking about it for a while, Su Ming gave up on the idea of killing it.
First of all, the Turtle was already very tired. If it was allowed to hold on for so long, Su Ming was afraid that it would not be able to hold on.
Second.
Su Ming also felt that the steel mine needed some guards.
He could not bring the Elven Warriors all the way here to defend, so it was undoubtedly the best choice to let the remaining Steel Giant guard.
