Chapter 19: Abundant Rewards
Bang!
The colossal giant's eyes shone brightly, their light growing ever stronger. Enraged, Bertholdt disregarded everything, steam erupting from his body.
The scorching steam rapidly melted the solid ice.
Ride with the wind!
Roy cursed under his breath. Faced with such an absolute disparity in strength, even the Demon Sword couldn't stop him. At this moment, he didn't hold back and decisively activated the special effect of the Wind Chaser Boots.
With his legs tangled in the fierce wind, Roy sprinted desperately toward the distance; distance was life itself!
In a very short time, Roy appeared a hundred meters away. Just when he thought he was safe, a sense of crisis came over him, and he turned his head sharply.
The colossal giant's long, slender hands swept across the surrounding buildings, hurling countless rubble that blotted out the sky, raining down on Roy like a storm.
Roy's pupils reflected the pebbles that filled the entire sky; the area covered was too vast to avoid!
call out!
Just at the critical moment, a golden figure flashed by and appeared in front of him.
"—The Wind of Light!"
The elven girl's clear and melodious voice rang out, and a large number of emerald green light orbs appeared around her, shooting out and crashing head-on into the countless pebbles that were hurtling towards her.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The emerald green orb collided with the rubble, creating a violent explosion in mid-air, illuminating the sky with brilliant flames.
One magical attack cleared away all the rubble!
Roy, who had survived the ordeal, plopped down and looked at the valiant and petite figure in front of him. It turned out that while hunting the Immaculate Giant, the elven girl had also paid some attention to him.
This level 4 fighter is so useful!
Roy gave a wry smile. He was owing more and more favors now. He had no way to repay such kindness. Did he really have to offer himself in return?
Liu turned her head slightly and glanced at Roy. A hint of helplessness flashed in her sky-blue eyes. Even though she had expected it, she was still shocked by the boy's madness. He actually dared to provoke that colossal giant.
Based on Roy's description of the nuclear explosion, the maximum potential of this colossal giant is likely very close to LV.6!
Bertholdt, inside the Colossal Titan, was stunned. What were those emerald green orbs of light?
Bang!Bang!Bang!
Heavy footsteps sounded.
A giant about 15 meters tall appeared on the other side of the street, its entire body covered in armor as hard as iron, and its appearance was completely different from that of the Pure Giant.
Armored Titan—Reiner Braun!
Steam rose from the back of the Colossal Titan's neck, Bertholdt shouting in utter grief, "Reiner, Annie has been killed by them!"
The Armored Titan froze, his expression pained, and his cold, angry gaze shifted to Roy and Ryu. He steadied himself in a charging stance.
Ryu's expression changed. This was troublesome. If they were surrounded by the Colossal Titan and the Armored Titan, she wasn't confident she could protect Roy, who was at LV.1, during the attack.
At that moment, Roy shouted, "Miss Ryu, quickly take down that five-meter-tall giant on your left!"
Liu had no time to hesitate and acted immediately.
At the same time, the Armored Titan charged toward them, each step it took making a loud thud, the earth trembling as if it were stepping on Roy's heart.
"bring it on!!"
Instead of trying to escape, Roy looked defiantly at the Armored Giant, drawing its attention and buying the elf girl a little more time.
In reality, Roy was nervously watching the dungeon panel; he was only missing one giant!
[Giant Slaying Count: 29!]
To enter the instance world, you must complete the main quest before you can return; additional quests are optional.
The Armored Titan charged forward as he wished, and from a frontal view, it was more awe-inspiring than a tank, unstoppable, as if it would smash everything in its path.
With each step covering more than ten meters, the Armored Titan swiftly crossed the distance between them, arriving in front of Roy, raising its large foot high, casting a shadow over the boy.
Just as the Armored Titan was about to crush Roy into a pulp, Ryu finally killed the last Titan.
[Thirty giants defeated, dungeon quest complete. Please return within 24 hours...]
Roy clapped his hands.
Roy and Ryu's figures became illusory and disappeared instantly. With a "boom," the Armored Titan stepped into empty air, lifted its foot, and left a huge footprint embedded in the ground.
Only the Colossal Titan and the Armored Titan remained. The two looked at each other and saw the confusion on each other's faces.
Back in the courtyard of the Star Garden.
"Huff! Huff!"
Roy was panting heavily; the feeling of suffocation still lingered in his mind for a long time.
Ryu was no exception. When the two intelligent Titans appeared, her heart jumped into her throat. Her sky-blue eyes glared at Roy. "Didn't we agree that we wouldn't have to deal with the Colossal Titan and the Armored Titan?"
"Plans can't keep up with changes."
Roy chuckled sheepishly. Who would have thought he'd run into it? If he'd let it go, he'd regret it for the rest of his life, just like the fisherman who always lamented the big fish that got away...
Now that things had come to this, Ryu didn't want to blame Roy too much; she wanted to wash away the Titan blood from her body.
Only Roy remained, lying in the spacious courtyard.
He nearly lost his life at least three times during this trip, but Roy showed no fear on his face; instead, he wore an excited smile.
A strange sense of madness arose spontaneously. Rather than calling him a gambler, he was more like a madman, not for victory or profit, but purely for the pursuit of excitement.
Of course, the benefits earned must be substantial.
[Teammate Ryu Leon has killed twenty-eight giants: two at 14 meters, three at 13 meters, six at 12 meters... Congratulations on gaining 1420 attribute points.]
[Killing 30 Titans will trigger an additional reward, the "Titan Summoning Card." Using this card summons 100 Pure Titans to fight for you, including a random Abnormal Titan, and the summons lasts for 24 hours.]
[Successfully defeated Annie Leonard (Female Titan), gaining 1200 attribute points, Titan Slayer...]

……
Roy scanned the panel and, aside from the two Unsullied Giants he had killed, he had gained a total of 2620 attribute points, a Giant Summoning Card, and a piece of high-level equipment.
You could easily become rich overnight!
In fact, this dungeon was not something he could solo. With his level 1 strength, he would get hurt if he encountered four or five giants over ten meters tall.
That's why the bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish!

By ambushing Bertholdt and enduring the heatwave of the Colossal Titan, Roy improved Bertholdt's stats, and then allocated the attribute points he gained.
Both attributes exceeding the limit are extremely rare even among LV.1 adventurers.
