Star Abyss Walker

Chapter 191 Divine Barrier
The Wind-Riding Sword streaked across the terracotta armor, leaving trails of sparks. The Starlight-level third-generation power armor's defense was simply too terrifying. Even with the terrifying damage from the Heavenly Craftsmanship and Unstoppable Force, the overall damage was still not optimistic. The total damage of the entire combo was less than 5, which was far too little compared to Rex's 400 million!
"Bastard!"

The next second, Rex suddenly turned around and swung his power sword upwards, as if to split me in two!
"Pong!"

Fortunately, the Step Slash cooldown was quick. He instantly moved several steps to the side, took out the Bomb Gun, and fired a barrage at his head, emptying the magazine in one go!
"beat!"

All around, Qiang Churu and his men were not idle either. Everyone focused their fire on Rex's head, and countless bullets ricocheted off the enemy's hood.

Just then, several blue-clad bosses dressed in mercenary uniforms appeared in the tent, carrying submachine guns and breaking out!
"Ignore those useless advisors, focus fire and kill Rex!"

With a low roar, the spear flashed and said, "Leike's sword strike deals about 2 damage. Brothers with more than 2 health can get close, but you have to run after taking one hit. You absolutely cannot take a second hit. The rest of you should keep a distance of more than 20 meters!"

"Watch out for power armor charges."

I frowned and said, "Those ground-hugging, thrusting attacks are quite ruthless. If you find yourself becoming the target of their charge, immediately move sideways without hesitation. If you have a movement ability, use it. Moving sideways during their charge will give you a very high chance of dodging!"

"damn it……"

Cai Cai, holding a bomb gun, fired armor-piercing rounds continuously while retreating, her face full of anger.

Clearly, he was reminded of the Garden of Words, where Kotoha died from Vega's power armor charge assassination. This incident had become a shadow in Nana's heart, one that could never be erased.

In truth, isn't it also my shadow?

……

“Zizi~~”

The wonders of nature vanished, and the last golden light fell on the connection point below the power armor backpack, which was the only weakness of this third-generation armor!
I immediately marked the location and shouted, "Aim here with armor-piercing rounds! Be careful with your positioning and safety!"

As he spoke, he switched magazines and fired a whole magazine of explosives at the weak points.

"A bunch of damn bastards!"

Like a tiger surrounded by wolves, Rex's expression behind his mask was extremely ferocious. His power backpack suddenly emitted blue light, and he was coming again, heading straight for one of the Crimson Sky Alliance's gunners!

"grass!"

The gunner was quite strong. The moment Rex charged out, he didn't even bother with the big gun in his arms. He threw it away and rolled sideways along the ground!
"Shh!"

"MISS!"

A highly successful tutorial on avoiding damage!

"beat!"

Holding the bomb gun, I unleashed a burst of energy and charged straight through the BOSS's body, arriving behind him. Coincidentally, the charge successfully stunned him!

Could it be that... the success rate of a burst charge is related to an individual's overall combat ability?
If that's the case, then it can be explained.

However, these are all speculations. Many settings in Star Abyss are hidden. Each system update only includes a few sentences, making it very mysterious. No one even knows if there is such a thing as an "official game". It is like a 100% real world, and the so-called game settings are just some kind of mysterious rules.

He turned around and unleashed a barrage of bullets at the connection point of the power backpack!
With a series of clanging sparks, the volley of fire from hundreds of elite players was no joke. With a resounding clang, the cable connection on Rex's back was finally destroyed!
“Zizzizi~~~”

The electric current surged, and the next moment, just as Rick attempted to use the jump pack's jet propulsion ability, a "poof" sound, like a fart, came from the bottom of the jump pack.

"Hahahahaha~~~"

Gunshot Dragon laughed loudly: "His jump pack's propulsion has been interrupted, great!"

In this way, Rex lost his ability to sprint and kill at low altitude. As a third-generation power armor user, coupled with the advantage of height, he was indeed a little faster than the players on the ground, but only a little faster. After losing the ability to sprint and kill, it was almost impossible for him to launch a surprise attack on the players, since those present were all elite players.

"Concentrate your firepower and fire!"

I was also very happy and played a volleyball game with everyone. Players from all directions aimed at Rex's hood and fired wildly!
"you……"

Rake was already enraged and brandished his power sword, but he couldn't kill anyone. Whenever he approached a player, as soon as my Burst Charge + Chilling Star skill was off cooldown, I would immediately use a combo to control him. In this way, he couldn't kill anyone.

Players are firing at each other intensely, mostly at each other, but too much scraping can be deadly.

Six minutes after the volley of fire, Rex's health bar was depleted!
"Oh shit!"

The Chaos Demon King laughed, "Our boss fight was very skill-based!"

"How tall?" Xu Tian asked.

"It's about several stories high..."

Everyone laughed for a moment.

After the jump pack was destroyed, Rick wasn't so scary anymore. Even if he took out his bomb gun and exchanged fire with the player, it was useless. He couldn't kill anyone instantly without his power sword.

……

"One more wave!"

Looking at his own Yuanli value, which was almost full thanks to the Yuanli Furnace's rolling operation, he started with Heavenly Craftsmanship and Unstoppable Force, followed by Burst Charge and Chilling Star Control, unleashing a terrifying combo of damage on Lei Ke's body. This time, he dealt a lot of damage, with the entire combo exceeding 7, directly emptying the opponent's last bit of health!
[Congratulations! You have defeated the Vice Leader of the Rek Dragon Slayer Mercenary Group (Orange BOSS) and obtained the item: BOSS Ability Crystal x1!]

[Battle Notification: You have defeated [Leike, Vice Leader of the Dragon Slayer Mercenary Group] (Orange BOSS), gaining 420000 character experience points. You also gained 210000 experience points through extraction at the Elemental Furnace!]

……

"Pfft!" The hood was slashed open, and the Wind Riding Sword cut through Rex's throat, causing a spray of blood. This genetically modified warrior was not only tall but also had extremely high blood pressure, and the blood in his throat sprayed up to ten meters high!

He clutched his throat and knelt down, slowly collapsing. Explosions erupted from all parts of his body. Not only did the third-generation armor self-destruct, but even the power sword's molecular propulsion system was blown off, turning into many metal fragments.

"Comfortable!"

Xu Tian smiled slightly: "Hurry up and open the treasure chests. Whoever gets an orange-tier item should treat everyone to dinner!"

"Open, open, open!"

Everyone else is opening treasure chests, so I'll open one too.

Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the item: [Phoenix Reborn Scepter] (Quality: Purple)!

……

A purple scepter?

Not good, but not bad either.

After a brief pause, the detailed attributes of the scepter, which exuded a bewitching purple aura, appeared.

【Scepter of Fiery Rebirth】(Quality: Purple)
Rank: Tier 3

Type: Spirit Scepter

……

'It's alright...'

I frowned. This was the first time I'd ever gotten a psionic weapon. It was pretty good, adding a lot of psionic attack and a 4% psionic life steal effect, which was quite similar to the legendary "spell vamp".

"Has anyone gotten any orange gear yet?" Chaos Demon King asked with a smile.

"No……"

Everyone shook their heads.

For a moment, Qiang Churulong, Xu Tian, ​​and others all looked at me. I had the highest output throughout the entire process of defeating the orange BOSS, so my chance of getting orange equipment should be the highest.

"Don't look at me, I only got a purple item. Everyone has their unlucky moments..." I said speechlessly.

"I rely on!"

Xu Tian pinched his nose and said, "Someone actually said that getting purple gear is considered unlucky. What kind of world is this? It's making life unbearable."

“Indeed, that’s shameless,” the Chaos Demon King echoed.

I then looked at the very well-behaved Kou Mei beside me and asked, "Kou Mei, what grade is your psychic main weapon?"

"Purple."

Kou Mei laughed and said, "It just opened!"

"Fine, then I won't give you this one."

"Yeah, boss, take it and sell it for money to save up for your future wedding! We'll marry one in the Star Abyss, and then marry another when we return to the real world!"

Damn, she really thinks of me.

……

At that moment, armored vehicles sped in from a distance; they were the troops guarding the Great Wall.

From the crowd, a high-ranking Dragon Guard wearing third-generation power armor walked over. It was none other than Xie Zhuoyun, who had given us the orders earlier. He looked at the mess in the command post and the corpse of Rek from the Dragon Slayer Mercenary Group lying on the ground, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.

He stepped forward, turned Rek's body over, and when he saw the face, he finally confirmed it and couldn't help but laugh, "I didn't expect you to actually kill Rek, the vice-captain of the Dragon Slayer Mercenary Group. Excellent! Now the Dragon Slayer Mercenary Group will definitely be terrified, and we can sweep them away with unstoppable force!"

The next second, the mission reward arrived!

[Congratulations! Your team has completed the battlefield mission "Assault: Dragon Slayer Mercenary Command Post" (Rank A). Rewards: 120 million character experience, 1200 reputation points, and an additional reward: "Oracle's Bulwark" (Rank A Skill Tome)!]

……

The Oracle's Fortress?!
I frowned, opened my interdimensional storage space, and sure enough, I saw a pale golden skill manual lying there. As my gaze lingered, its detailed description floated out—

[Oracle Barrier] (Rank A Skill Codex): Summons a shield to protect oneself. Its resilience is related to one's mental strength and physical strength. Required level: 30. Required class: Light Priest.

……

It's actually a Tier 3 skill of the Light Priest. This skill is extremely rare, and currently very few people have it. The Light Priest is an abnormal class that cultivates both strength and spirit. Not only can they wear power armor, but they can also use explosive guns to kill people. When necessary, they can even unleash a psionic attack on their opponents. Once they learn the Oracle Barrier, the Light Priest's survivability will undergo a qualitative leap!

In short, this book is valuable, keep it!
