Star Abyss Walker

Chapter 170 They're really lucky
"Depend on……"

A chill ran through me. I hadn't expected to encounter such a situation so soon after arriving. They sent us as many as 11 Sonic Beasts, all of them level 35 blue bosses!

Although this means 11 blue power crystals, however...

Whether we can even eat these 11 Soundwave Beasts is a question in itself!

"Holy crap, what do we do?"

The fat man's hand holding the gun began to tremble.

"Fire all at once, then pick them off one by one!?" Cai Cai.

"no!"

I shook my head immediately: "If we let them swarm us, they'll likely unleash a sonic boom all at once, and we'll be in deep trouble. Everyone listen to my command: each of you shoot two Sonic Beasts, and then scatter and run. With your current stats, you won't die from two sonic booms. Hurry, move out of here!"

As I spoke, I immediately lowered my body and fired a series of rapid shots with my bomb gun, instantly attracting the attention of the three-headed sonic beast. Then I took off running!

"Roar!"

The three-headed sonic beasts chased after them, and Ruolin, Fatty, and the others followed suit, each attracting the aggro of two sonic beasts, and the five-person team quickly dispersed!
A few seconds later, after putting some distance between myself and the others, I suddenly turned around and aimed all the remaining bullets from my bomb gun at the head of the Sonic Beast in front of me, emptying the magazine. The next second, I switched to Roarer and emptied the magazine in the same way. In just an instant, the Sonic Beast's health bar disappeared!
"Ho~~~"

The other two Noivern Beasts roared, gripped the ground with all four claws, and surged with wind, already charging up their Sonic Boom skills!

"die!"

I immediately switched my main weapon to the Wind Rider Sword, and used the Burst Charge to pierce through the body of one of the Sonic Beasts. Then I turned around and unleashed a combo of Heavenly Craftsmanship and Unstoppable Force. Instantly, exaggerated damage numbers soared into the air. The moment the combo was finished, I reduced its health bar to only about 2!

Switch to the bomb gun and instantly kill!

At the same time, the third Noivern Beast's Sonic Boom attack arrived!
"Bang~~~"

A terrifying sonic boom swept past, and in an instant, it felt as if the body had been pierced and shattered by some kind of substance!
"4992!"

Okay!

Without the Annihilation Armor active, the sonic boom only dealt less than 5000 damage to me. This was all thanks to my 1100+ armor, which negated a huge amount of sonic boom damage!

At the same time, sonic booms also came from four other directions, and everyone triggered the Noise Beast's ultimate attack!
Ruolin is a shield-type super weapon, thick-skinned and tough, I'm not worried.

CaiCai is high-level and well-equipped, and her stats are a mix of Strength, Agility, and Stamina, so her health bar is very high and there's no need to worry.

The fat guy just successfully completed his third job advancement a few days ago, and his attributes are already quite good. He can withstand two sonic booms.

As for Kou Mei, although she is a bit fragile, her equipment is not bad. In addition, she has the Psionic Shield skill, which is enough to withstand two sonic booms without dying.

As long as the sonic boom damage is spread out, our team has the absolute strength to fight back!
"Bang bang bang~~~"

In the night sky, the muzzle flashes of bullets continued to erupt. In just a few seconds, all 50 of the Roarer's bullets were poured onto the head of the third Sonic Beast, killing it instantly.

I immediately rushed towards Kou Mei's side, only to see two Sonic Beasts chasing after her in the jungle!

"Boss, save me!"

When Kou Mei saw me, her eyes were filled with surprise.

The explosive gun fired, instantly finishing off the weakened Sonic Beast. Then, he dashed forward, switching to the Wind Rider Sword, and unleashed a chilling strike that froze the second Sonic Beast in place. Together with Kou Mei, they shot it down!

"go!"

They rushed towards the fat man, carrying Kou Mei along with them.

This guy was actually standing still and firing, his explosive gun firing incessantly as he fired a barrage of shots into the mouth of a Sonic Beast. By the time we arrived, the Sonic Beast had already fallen, and another one pounced on us!

"Confinement!"

Kou Mei's eyes flashed with silver light, her mental power surged, and she instantly summoned a spiritual energy chain, locking the second sonic beast that Fatty was in charge of in place. I then took advantage of the situation and took it away with a burst of bullets!

Immediately afterwards, the three of them rushed towards Ruolin.

A sonic beast's corpse lay at Ruolin's feet, while another was frantically gnawing at the purple shield in her hand. As usual, a burst of bullets killed it!

When the four of us arrived at Cai Cai's place, this guy was actually sitting on the corpses of the two sonic beasts, and he took out a cigarette, lit it on the red-hot barrel of his gun, took a puff, blew out a smoke ring, and looked at us nonchalantly: "Why did you take so long to get here?"

"Fuck..."

The fat man looked annoyed; he'd actually been fooled!

……

"Let's go."

As I opened the box, I said in a deep voice, "There are too many sonic beasts here. Let's leave quickly. The blood color is sparse in the southwest, so it should be relatively safer."

"Yeah!"

Cai Cai nodded repeatedly.

So the group headed southwest.

As for the blue ability crystals I obtained, they all yielded experience points. The only one worth a glance was a 0.2 cubic meter dimensional expansion crystal, along with a Tier 3 green SMC. Although this thing is outdated at the moment, it should be able to sell for a few thousand star coins without any problem.

Ten minutes later, after passing through a woodland, there was an endless shrub forest ahead.

"Isn't it too quiet here?"

The fat man laughed and said, "I don't think there's a single mutant here..."

“Quiet is good, quiet is safe,” Cai Cai said.

"It's not necessarily peaceful..."

I turned around abruptly and saw rustling sounds coming from the bushes to my side. Then, a dense swarm of dark shadows rushed out. They were all Devourers, and there were at least a thousand of them at a glance!

"Holy crap!" Cai Cai exclaimed in surprise, "Who just said it was quiet here?!"

"Stop joking, let's go!"

I grabbed my explosive gun and led everyone in a hasty retreat.

Although the Devourer is a Tier 1 alien species and is considered "trash" by players at this stage, if there are enough of them, and each Devourer uses its "Devour" skill on you, even a god couldn't stop it. The Devourer isn't that powerful, but its Devour is incredibly satisfying, and that bite will cause you to lose a lot of health!

Behind them, thousands of Devourers roared incessantly, chasing at a rapid pace!

"Ding Han, look over there!"

Zhang Ruolin, carrying a submachine gun, rushed forward and pointed into the distance.

Under the moonlight, I followed the direction she pointed and saw a signal tower there. It looked abandoned for many years, but it still stood there and looked very sturdy.

"Hurry, climb the signal tower!"

A group of people sped off and arrived at the signal tower in the blink of an eye. While Ruolin, Koumei, and Fatty climbed the tower, Cai Cai and I fired our guns from below, shooting down the oncoming Devourers. Afterward, the two of us nimbly darted around several times and also reached the rusty signal tower.

“Ho ho ho~~~”

Below, nearly twenty meters away from us, countless Devourers roared and circled on the ground, trying to rush up. Unfortunately, the Devourers couldn't climb trees, so they could only wander around below.

"The monster is stuck..."

Cai Cai grinned: "Harvesting time, let's begin!"

So everyone opened fire downwards, and with a burst of bullets, the devourers fell like wheat being harvested—it felt great.

"Boss, look over there!"

Kou Mei pointed into the distance: "A BOSS has joined!"

"Ah."

I nodded. It was a Splitter, a level 35 purple BOSS, walking towards us surrounded by Devourers. In the darkness, it seemed that more and more alien species were coming, crowding below like a terrifying tide.

……

Just then, several figures with green IDs appeared in the distance—players!
Someone passed by.

Zhang Ruolin squinted and looked in your direction.

I looked over and saw that the group of players had the words "Jinyu" guild above their heads, and the one walking at the very front was none other than Shen Jin, the leader of the Jinyu guild!

After we parted ways in the cold wind, he never bothered me again, which shows he's a smart man.

Following behind Shen Jin were the main players of the Jinyu Guild, including Ji Meng Ke Ke and Pi Li 17 Shuo Qu Ba, numbering around 20 or more.

"drop!"

Suddenly, the adorable Coco sent a friend request. After accepting, she asked, "Ding Han, do you need our help?"

"No need, we can handle it, thank you!"

"Okay, let's go then."

They didn't turn around, but brushed past us in the moonlight.

……

Stop staring at those big-breasted cute girls!

Cai Cai glared at the fat man and said, "The splitters are here, get ready to fight!"

"Shoot it down in one volley!"

I spotted the Splitter and aimed directly at its head, firing armor-piercing rounds from my slug gun. Fatty, Cai Cai, and the others quickly followed up with their own firepower, and the Splitter's health bar plummeted, instantly enraging it!
"Sigh~~~"

His head suddenly split into several mouth parts, and with a low whistle, his arms began to climb up the signal tower.

"Holy crap, he can climb towers?!" Cai Cai frowned.

"Don't panic, unleash your full power!"

Just after I ran out of bullets for the Roarer, I immediately raised my hand and used the Heavenly Crafting Technique on the Splitter's head. Then I switched to the bomb gun and fired a barrage of shots. With this switching and everyone's output, the Splitter's 50 health bar couldn't withstand it at all. It had only climbed halfway when it turned into a pile of mangled flesh and fell downwards!
I've got a purple superpower crystal treasure chest! Let's open it!

Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the item: [Splitter Battle Axe] (Quality: Blue)!

……

A blue axe, level three.

Given the current market situation where blue equipment is constantly depreciating, it can probably be sold for around 4 Star Coins, which is actually not bad.

Soon after, the devourers below were completely cleared out, and we gained a large amount of experience points.

"Shh!"

He instantly leveled up to level 35, and a golden rain of light bathed his entire body.

Just then, a message popped up: "Ding Han, we've encountered a Spine Butcher here, at Twilight Wasteland (24377, 72883)."

Immediately afterward, God's voice came from within the star map: "Spine Butcher has appeared, coordinates (24372, 72889), nearby players please come to the rescue immediately! Please come to the rescue immediately!"

"I rely on..."

Cai Cai and I looked at each other in bewilderment.

I must say, the people from the Ember Domain Guild are really lucky; they've already encountered the Spine Butcher so quickly!
