[Cheat] Chapter 122: Dandro Shaman
🕑 Added 2025-07-14 08:46:34 +0000 UTC“Unusual Hilichurl? What kind of Hilichurl is that? Is it strong?”
“It’s not about whether it’s strong or not. It’s... a very rare type. It won’t actively attack adventurers, but if provoked, it’ll retaliate—and sometimes throw out really good stuff.”
“But that was in the past. Not sure if that’s still the case... but we can give it a try.”
Amber looked a little concerned. “Let me fire a test arrow first.”
Zephyr thought about it and agreed. Amber readied her bow and launched a flaming arrow.
With a smack, the Unusual Hilichurl lost 1000 HP.
It immediately stood up in anger but looked around in confusion—unable to find its attacker, it scratched its head and sat back down.
Paimon commented, “This Hilichurl is way too dumb.”
Even Paimon, the queen of silly comments, called the Unusual Hilichurl dumb. That pretty much confirmed it was really dumb.
Amber gave it another shot. She drew her bow and loosed another arrow.
Whoosh—smack!
This time, the Unusual Hilichurl caught fire, and in a panic, rolled and stumbled around to put out the flames. Eventually, it jumped into a nearby pond, emerging soaked and charred.
“Why do I feel bad for it now? Amber, maybe we should let it go...”
Amber broke into a cold sweat. “Uhh, Paimon, why do you make it sound like I’m some kind of Hilichurl serial killer...?”
You kind of are. But Paimon didn’t dare say that aloud.
“It doesn’t seem very strong, does it?”
Zephyr walked right up to it. This time, the Unusual Hilichurl noticed him and got up in a fury. It opened its backpack and tossed something shiny at him.
Zephyr reacted quickly and caught it mid-air.
Primogem ×1.
His eyes lit upIt actually works!
He crossed his arms, raised a finger, and taunted, “Come on, bring it!”
Enraged, the Unusual Hilichurl grabbed another handful of shiny objects and hurled them at him.
“Yeah! Come on, hit me with Primogems if you’ve got the guts!”
And so began a ridiculous scene: the Unusual Hilichurl flinging “stones” non-stop at an adventurer, who wasn’t even mad—in fact, he looked downright pleased. Whenever the Hilichurl slowed down, he’d throw out another taunt just to keep it going.
Provoked like that, the Unusual Hilichurl hurled objects for a full ten minutes.
But eventually, when it reached into its bag again—it was empty. No more stones. It deflated on the spot.
Seeing this, Zephyr said, “Hey, those round shiny stones... got any more?”
“￥%!” The Unusual Hilichurl turned tail and ran.
Paimon floated over, eyes wide. “It ran? That’s the first time I’ve seen such a cowardly Hilichurl.”
Amber agreed, “Yeah, usually they fight to the death. I’ve never seen one so afraid before.”
Paimon added, “It’s getting away! If we don’t chase now, we’ll lose it!”
Zephyr replied, “It’s fine. I let it go on purpose.”
“This is my first time encountering a Unusual Hilichurl in this world. I’m afraid if I kill it, I’ll never find another one. Gotta conserve wildlife, y’know?”
“Uhh… where do I even start with that comment...”
“And I need to give it some time to restock on Primogems, so I can come back and scam it again.”
Paimon exclaimed, “Oh wow, entrapment tactics!”
“What do you mean? This is the unbreakable bond of battlefield camaraderie.”
Hearing that, Lumine couldn’t help but pinch her forehead.
“Alright, let’s move on.”
The group continued in silence, until finally they arrived at a mid-sized Hilichurl camp up ahead.
From a distance, sure enough, there were many Hilichurls inside. One was even standing on a watchtower outside, keeping lookout.
Paimon said, “There are so many Hilichurls… How are we supposed to fight them all?”
“I’ll just normal attack once with Klee, Venti uses his ult, Lisa triggers Overload with a few zaps—battle over.”
Paimon shot back, “Are you dreaming about peaches or something?”
Zephyr scanned the area and noticed something strange. “See that explosive barrel over there?”
“Yeah, huh? That is an explosive barrel. What are Hilichurls doing with those?”
“Who knows, but we can use it to our advantage.”
Amber’s eyes lit up. She aimed straight at the barrel.
BOOM!
The explosion shook the earth and sky.
The Dandro Hilichurl Shaman closest to it was instantly blown to pieces. Several nearby archers were gravely wounded, their HP nearly gone. The Hilichurl Berserkers further away were untouched.
But they looked utterly stunned, shrieking nonsense in ￥% gibberish.
Zephyr muttered, “That barrel was way more powerful than in the game.”
Paimon chirped, “Traveler, stop monologuing—it’s your turn to shine!”
Zephyr glanced at her but said nothing. He walked straight in and, with two quick slashes, finished off the wounded archers. Always take out the backline first—solid tactic. Especially when they’re already nearly dead.
The Hilichurl Berserker charged—Zephyr ignored it. Leave the tank for last.
Working together with Amber, they wiped out the rest of the small Hilichurls. Then finally turned toward the Berserker.
“The mage is dead. The archers are dead. The warriors are dead. What’s the point of just one tank left?”
As if it understood the sarcasm, the Hilichurl Berserker flew into a powerless rage and then…
It ran away.
Zephyr blinked. “It ran?”
Amber was equally stunned. “No idea… This is the first—wait, second time I’ve seen a Hilichurl run. And this one’s a Berserker, an elite enemy!”
Paimon, however, acted like it was the most natural thing. “What’s so weird? If it can’t win, running is the smart move!”
Amber hesitated, “Yeah, but it’s a—ah, forget it…”
Zephyr said, “Amber’s too kind to say it, so I will. With your level of intelligence, I wouldn’t even know how to explain it.”
Amber suddenly tensed. “No good, it’s getting away! We’ve got to catch it!”
Lumine broke into a cold sweat. Amber, and you say you’re not a Hilichurl-killing maniac…
Amber fired a long-range nuke arrow. The Hilichurl Berserker didn’t react in time—headshot! One-third of its HP gone.
Zephyr followed up with his ult—clean and instant kill.
“Nice work!” Amber said.
Flames danced with the swirling wind, quickly igniting the grassy field into a roaring blaze.
“…”
“…”
Paimon panicked. “Wh-what do we do now!?”
Zephyr said, “Paimon, quick! Use your water gun!”
“I’m not a Squirtle!”
Luckily, it was just grass and not a forest. The fire burned for a bit, but the surrounding dirt eventually smothered it.
Amber patted her chest in relief. “Phew, that was close. Could’ve turned into a disaster.”
Zephyr added, “Exactly. Paimon, you really need to be more careful next time.”
“Why does it sound like it’s Paimon's fault?!”
All things considered, it went pretty smoothly.
Zephyr asked, “Amber, now that we’ve cleared the camp, does that mean the mission’s complete?”
