Star Abyss Walker

Chapter 179 The Second Spear Butcher!
Outside the base walls, there are mostly Tier 1 alien species such as Crawlers and Devourers. They are level 40 elites with about 6000 health points and very low armor, so they are almost immune to bullet damage. Therefore, I chose to shoot the Roarers!

Accompanied by the rhythmic "rat-a-tat-tat" sound, every four bullets killed one alien. At such close range, even if the opponent frantically darted around, my maxed-out shooting proficiency still allowed me to headshot every single one of them without missing a single one.

The reason for choosing the Roarer to shoot it was simply to save money.

A bullet hitting a Tier 1 alien will also deal 500 points of firepower damage. A bullet from the bomb gun costs 10 star coins, while a bullet from the roarer only costs 3 star coins!
The five of them were completely immersed in this wonderful shooting experience.

……

About ten minutes later, an officer wearing the rank of major approached us, saluted, and said, "I am the commander of Gale Fortress. May I ask who you are?"

"We are mercenaries from Huaining City."

I said directly, "We just received information that Gale Fortress is under attack by an alien army, so we came here to help defend it."

"Great!"

The major said, "Galewind Fortress needs people like you right now. Thank you. The Crimson Dragon Legion will never forget your contributions and will repay you handsomely!"

"Commander, you're too kind. This is what we should do," the fat man said insincerely.

Cai Cai grinned.

"Stop talking, let's keep fighting!"

The next moment, the major left with a soldier, while we still occupied a small section of the wall, continuously unleashing bullets at the monster horde outside. The speed at which our experience points increased was absurdly fast. These level 40 elite monsters were incredibly easy to kill and gave us a lot of experience. Moreover, the leveling environment here was extremely safe; it truly was a holy land!
"Boss, the Splitters, over there!"

Cai Cai suddenly pointed to the distance.

"Understood, leave it to me!"

I immediately raised the Roarer and, from a distance of nearly 140 meters, slammed it repeatedly into the Splitter. The Splitter roared angrily, its momentum overwhelming. The first-tier mutants nearby were so frightened that they all retreated, not daring to fight back.

A few seconds later, the Divider arrived in front of us at the speed of a world champion sprinter!
I immediately switched to a bomb gun and fired together with everyone.

Cai Cai, Fatty, and Ruolin unleashed their combined firepower, while Kou Mei threw out a series of psionic attacks, which also dealt a decent amount of damage.

"Ho~~~"

The Splitters roared from below, as anxious as ants on a hot pan. In an instant, they stepped over the corpses of countless aliens and rushed up, leaping nearly ten meters into the air before disappearing from our sight.

"Watch out for that Splitter!"

In the distance, the shouts of soldiers could be heard from the watchtower.

I quickly leaped up and stood on the edge of the city wall. I saw the Splitters below extending their sharp claws, leaving deep claw marks on the wall, and charging upwards as if walking on flat ground!

"be careful!"

The nearby human soldiers were terrified, and the major even picked up a bomb gun and started firing in their direction.

The next second, the splitter had already climbed to the top, and an arm covered with bone spurs firmly gripped the inside of the wall. Its hideous head slowly emerged and quickly split into several mouthparts, looking extremely ferocious!
"Nima!"

Cai Cai and Fatty hurriedly retreated and fired, their faces filled with horror.

"Don't be afraid!"

I took a step forward, my main weapon already switched to the Wind-Riding Sword. My right arm suddenly felt a chill, and I slashed the opponent's split head with a fierce, bone-chilling strike. Frost spread instantly, freezing the split-off creature to the wall.

"Shh!"

The Heavenly Creation Technique landed on its head in an instant, and the next second, it unleashed a series of attacks: a normal attack, a combo attack, a normal attack, a dragon blade attack, a normal attack, a ground spike attack, and a normal attack. In an instant, the damage from the Heavenly Creation Technique reached a terrifying 110%. Then, it followed up with the Bloodthirst Frenzy three swords, each strike hitting the flesh!

"10297!"

"16282!"

"36284!"

……

The final strike landed a critical hit, dealing a terrifying 3.6+ damage. The combined damage of the three attacks reached 5+, which is equivalent to cutting off nearly one-tenth of a level 40 purple BOSS's health bar in three strikes. It's absolutely terrifying!
"I rely on..."

Cai Cai was utterly shocked: "What kind of damage is this?!"

At this moment, I had already stepped completely onto the edge of the outer wall, switched to the explosive gun, and emptied the magazine directly at the split mandible of the splitter!

The damage had been done enough; the splitter had already died on the spot before it even fell!

[Congratulations! You have defeated the Splitter (purple BOSS) and obtained the item: BOSS Ability Crystal x1!]

[Battle Notification: You have defeated the "Splitter" (purple BOSS), gaining 480000 character experience points. The Elemental Furnace extracted 240000 experience points!]

……

"Cool!"

Cai Cai craned her neck to look at the corpse of the splitter below and said, "Boss's output is terrifying. He didn't even give the splitter a chance to split before killing it! Ruolin, you said you're also a super warrior, but how come I've never seen you deal a full set of melee damage?"

"you……"

Ruolin gritted her teeth and said, "Caicai, do you know why you've never had a girlfriend? It's because you have such a sharp tongue! You jerk, you always bring up the most sensitive topics!"

"That's a lie..." Cai Cai retorted while shooting, "The boss doesn't have a girlfriend either..."

"fart!"

Ruolin said, "Although Ding Han doesn't have a girlfriend yet, do you think he lacks women around him? Who are the women around Ding Han? They're women like Lu Xiaobei and Lin Qingying. Who are you around?"

"I……"

Cai Cai was speechless: "With you and Kou Mei here!"

"You wretched creature, shut up!"

Kou Mei immediately protested, forbidding Cai Cai from continuing.

I just laughed it off.

Having known Nana for so long, I've never seen him truly care about any girl. If I had to say he cared, it would probably only be about The Garden of Words...

Unfortunately, the deaths of Kotoha and Tobi at the hands of General Vega remain a painful memory for all of us.

Perhaps in the future, if it can be confirmed that players who die in "Star Abyss" are resurrected in reality, then perhaps Nana will still have hope of returning to reality and finding Kotoha, which might be her most perfect ending.

However, the depths of "Star Abyss" are unfathomable. Who knows if there will be a chance to go back, or if those who died will be resurrected in reality?

"here we go again!"

Less than five minutes later, another roar came from afar, and a second purple BOSS splitter appeared in sight.

"continue!"

I used the same method again, using the Roarer to lure the Splitter over, and then a group of people focused their fire. The second Splitter was not as aggressive as the first. It circled the outer wall a few times, found that there was no way to rush up directly, and hid among a group of Tier 1 aliens. With a shudder, it activated its split skill!
"It's going to split apart!"

I yelled, "Fire! Ruolin, throw grenades to blow up the low-level aliens, quick!"

The next second, Ruolin and Koumei threw several grenades in succession, and there were continuous "bang bang bang" explosions below. After a group of Tier 1 aliens were cleared out, the body of the Splitter was exposed. I and the two gunners aimed and fired at each other, emptying the magazines of the bomb gun and the Roarer almost instantly, and also directly taking away the last bit of the enemy's health bar!
"Wow..."

The Splitter let out a terrible scream and gave each of us a purple power crystal.

"Cool!"

Cai Cai smiled broadly: "I'm going to have the time of my life today..."

I watched as the alien corpses continued to press and grow taller on the outside. Soon they would overflow the walls, and then hordes of aliens would rush into the base. At that time, this base of the Crimson Dragon Kingdom in the north would be completely lost!

However, at that moment, the major slowly raised his hand and said, "The height of the alien corpses has exceeded the limit. All fire, begin dumping fuel, and prepare to ignite!"

Immediately, all the Red Dragon Kingdom soldiers ceased fire.

The next moment, spray nozzles emerged from the outer wall, spewing out large amounts of fuel. In an instant, a strong smell of gasoline filled the air, and Cai Cai and I covered our mouths and noses.

"ignition!"

With a loud shout, a spark ignited outside the base's walls, quickly spreading into flames. The low-level alien species outside the city screamed in agony as they burned, their bodies contorting and hunching over. Many corpses were instantly burned to a crisp, unable to support their companions' weight, and fell to the ground, turning to ashes.

"Damn, that's exciting..."

Cai Cai stared in disbelief at the scene before her.

I took the opportunity to activate the two purple power crystals!
Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the item: [Dimensional Expansion Crystal] (Expansion Space: 0.8 cubic meters)!

Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the following item: [First Aid Kit] x10!

……

'Damn it...'

I frowned. The rewards were undeniably generous: 0.8 cubic meters of expansion crystal and 10 first aid kits, all quite useful items. But I still couldn't help but complain!
It would be great if it were purple equipment!
Currently, purple equipment is the mainstream equipment favored by top-tier players, especially firearms and rocket launchers, which are priced very high, even reaching sky-high prices of 30 to 40 star coins!
In addition, purple necklaces and rings are also in high demand. Top-tier players have been fighting tooth and nail for these items in order to stack critical hit and life steal effects!

Unfortunately, purple equipment is extremely rare and currently not circulated. Once players obtain it, they usually consume it among themselves, and no one puts it up for sale. Therefore, although there are many wealthy players on the dark web seeking to buy purple equipment, there is no market for it, and there is virtually no purple equipment in circulation.

Otherwise, I certainly wouldn't be the first person to collect a full set of purple gear. After all, some players are lucky enough to be born into wealthy and powerful families, with monthly living expenses of tens of millions. It's incomparable to those.

"It's so cool!"

Cai Cai said, "I got a purple breastplate, and it increased my armor a lot!"

"Humph!"

The fat man chuckled: "Your luck is just too awesome!"

"and many more……"

Suddenly, Ruolin looked into the distance and said, "Don't get too excited yet, Ding Han, use your scope to look over there. It looks like an orange-tier boss is coming..."

"what?"

I was dumbfounded. I quickly took out the Wind Whisperer and aimed it at the distance. Sure enough, about 1000 meters away, a familiar figure swayed and approached, surrounded by a group of alien creatures.

Damn, it's the second spine-spike butcher!
