Chapter 87 Alan Defeats the Frost Giant
The Frost Giant had a staggering 85 million health points.
Its attack power was over 30,000.
With these stats, it could easily defeat any player.
Only those like SteadyStrategist, fortified with extreme Physical Defense and Magic Defense, or Alan himself, endowed with a robust health pool and formidable damage output, stood a chance.
Or perhaps a being like Alan, with a thick health bar and high damage output.
Otherwise, conquering this Ice Giant would be like trying to scale Mount Everest barefoot.
The Frost Giant missed its attack and roared at Alan, sending out a sonic wave that caused Alan to lose health rapidly.
[-25,803.]
[-25,799.]
Sonic wave attack, two hits of damage.
And this damage value was quite impressive.
However, it was not as much as Alan's normal attack, which was just like a scratch incomparison.
Alan's arrows continuously pierced through the air, each normal attack dealing massive damage, which was quite terrifying.
And because Alan was not affected by divine power, he could attack twelve times per second.
In just one second, his normal attack damage could exceed 1.1 million.
Even after accounting for the Frost Giant's self-healing of 100,000 per second, the damage dealt in one second still exceeded a million.
Alan could reduce the Frost Giant's health by over 60 million in one minute!
This Frost Giant couldn't even last two minutes against Alan.
Wait a minute.
Alan twitched his mouth because the Frost Giant didn't even last one second before falling.
The death cycle mechanic that hadn't triggered in previous tough battles with Alan was triggered this time.
A 1% trigger rate didn't't mean one out of every hundred arrows would trigger it.
On the contrary, it might take tens of thousands of arrows before one triggered it.
Because each arrow had just a 1% chance, this probability was really low.
But that's not important now.
Alan now had to wait for the second Frost Giant to respawn.
If he was right, it would respawn in half an hour.
So he had quite a bit of waiting time.
With this in mind, Alan sat down.
He started thinking about his next steps.
So far, his journey had been relatively smooth.
He had basically obtained everything he wanted.
Special skills, equipment, blessings from the gods.
The most crucial thing was that he has a large number of free attribute points, allowing his attack speed to break through 10 early on.
His movement speed had already broken through 14, which was without a set of equipment that increased attack speed and movement speed.
If he got a set of such equipment, his power would be terrifying.
When he got the god-level talent, Alan considered learning from SteadyStrategist.
But when he was farming Red Eye Rabbits, he knew it wouldn't work.
One arrow, one rabbit.
Even though the Red Eye Rabbit was a must-farm monster for beginners and it respawned quickly, its attack speed and number of normal attacks were too low.
Moreover, each Red Eye Rabbit killed by a single arrow could only stack one point of health, which was too inefficient.
Alan shook off these thoughts and focused on his current situation.
With his current stats, he completely believed he could clear the Snow Corpse's relic dungeon.
However, he had to consider how to support Leona to become the king of Stellaria.
In his previous life, Alan had some understanding of Stellaria's political issues.
In Stellaria's political arena, there were mainly three forces: the Prime Minister, the Grand Marshal, and the Director of the Demon Suppression Department.
These three forces checked and balanced each other, with the Prime Minister and the Grand Marshal often at odds, engaging in both open and covert battles.
Although the Demon Suppression Department rarely participated in these conflicts, they engaged in a battle of wits with the nightwalkers of the demon lair.
These three forces had significant power and balanced each other out.
Besides that, among the royal family, the three princesses were not to be overlooked, as the future throne was most likely to come from one of them.
As for Queen Susan, she indeed supported Lisa, but she was merely supporting a puppet.
Additionally, the king had a brother, the only prince of Stellaria, who usually led a somewhat idle life.
But Alan knew that this prince was not to be underestimated.
These were the general situations Alan knew about Stellaria's court.
Given the current dynamics, it was difficult to win over both the Prime Minister and the Grand Marshal simultaneously.
The best choice was to win over the Demon Suppression Department and the Grand Marshal's side.
This way, two of the three forces among the officials would be in support.
However, what Alan could think of, others could as well.
Therefore, the one who should be won over the most was likely Prince Benjamin!
Few people know Benjamin's true strength.
If not for being a reborn, Alan would also think Benjamin was not much.
But the truth was quite the opposite.
Benjamin already had the power to stage a coup!
As for the Queen and Lisa, he had leverage over them, so there was no need to worry too much.
The Queen sent him here, most likely intending to trap him here.
Unfortunately for her, she wouldn't succeed.
Win over Benjamin, take down Ashley, then deal with the Queen and Lisa.
Alan quickly made his decision.
Half an hour later, the second Frost Giant appeared.
Alan began attacking nonchalantly.
If he went all out, the Frost Giant would be killed too quickly.
Therefore, Alan had to slow down his attack speed and drag out the fight.
This way, he could maximize the use of the half-hour respawn mechanism to stack his health points.
By killing one Frost Giant, he could stack about 8,000 health points.
Alan removed the equipment "Tears of the Goddess of Life," lowering his health points so that killing one Frost Giant could stack over 10,000 health points.
The subsequent battles were much smoother.
One Frost Giant after anotherfell to Alan.
Because of his immunity to frost damage and the lifesteal ability of the Bloodthirsty Necklace, Alan didn't have to worry about the Frost Giant's attacks.
For the remaining Frost Giants, Alan didn't trigger the death cycle mechanic and smoothly stacked over 10,000 health points.
When two Frost Giants respawned simultaneously,
the result was no surprise; they were still under Alan's control.
Moreover, due to his mental recovery, Alan could now easily use Double Arrow Shot.
By killing two Frost Giants, he could accumulate over 20,000 health points.
Although the amount of health points he could accumulate decreased as his damage increased, it didn't affect Alan much.
Even toward the end, he could still stack up to over 19,000 health points.
When the last two Frost Giants fell, Alan had accumulated a total of 240,000 health points by killing Frost Giants.
That was because two of the later Frost Giants were killed instantly by him.
Adding the 10% increase from James's talent, that was an additional 26,000 or so.
If count the increase from the "Tears of the Goddess of Life" equipment, Alan's health points have now reached a terrifying 3.5 million!
At this stage, aside from bosses in secret realms and hell-level difficulty, no one below level 20 should have as much health as he does.
