Star Abyss Walker

Chapter 219 Crimson Dragon-class Titan Mech II!
"You damned people..."

Amidst the barrage of fire, Huo Yu's body trembled violently, quickly riddled with holes. His last bit of health was depleted, and just as he knelt down, two bells rang in succession—

[Congratulations! You have defeated the Psychic Officer Firefeather (purple BOSS) and obtained the item: 1 BOSS Ability Crystal!]

[Battle Notification: You have defeated [Psionic Officer Firefeather] (Purple BOSS), gaining 540000 character experience points. The Elemental Furnace extracted 270000 experience points!]

……

Done! Clean and efficient!

After kicking Huo Yu's corpse and confirming that the elusive psychic was truly dead, the fat man turned around and asked in surprise, "Ding Han, why do the Dark Tide people call you 033? Is there some old story behind this?"

"You know what, there's a really unspeakable story behind it."

I smiled calmly: "I'm not as lucky as you. My character was born in the wilderness and was captured by the Dark Tide organization's laboratory for research when I came out. I underwent three rounds of gene modification injections. The bio-electromagnetic pulses that everyone sees are one of the gene evolution abilities. In short, it's a shameful experience, but the gene evolution skills are indeed very useful."

"Holy crap, there's more to this than that..." The fat man was speechless.

"Let's open all the boxes and see if there's anything we can replace or use. We'll be heading straight to the main battlefield soon," I said.

"Ok!"

Everyone bent down to open their boxes, and I opened the purple power crystal I had just acquired—

Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the item: [Psionic Barrier] (Rank A Skill Tome)!

……

Psychic barrier?

I was slightly taken aback, not expecting to find a skill book for another profession. So I took out the golden skill manual, and a wisp of text slowly appeared—

【Psionic Barrier】(Rank A Skill Codex): Generates a psionic barrier to block ranged projectile attacks. Its resilience is related to the user's mental strength. It lasts for 5 seconds and has a 25-second cooldown. Required level: 40. Required class: Psionicist.

A barrier that can withstand projectile attacks is quite useful, roughly equivalent to Yasuo's Wind Wall. If used properly during a firefight, it can potentially turn the tide of battle.

"Kou girl."

I immediately turned around, shared the Psionic Barrier encyclopedia entry in the team chat, and asked with a smile, "Interested?"

"Huh? A psionic barrier..."

Kou Mei's lips parted slightly, her big eyes filled with joy: "Boss, you opened this one?"

"Yeah, it just came out, want some?"

"I want it!"

Kou Mei looked embarrassed: "But boss, I recently traded a purple outfit for a higher price, so I don't have enough funds. I only have 10 star coins right now. What do you think..."

"Then let's go for 10 star coins, it's an insider price for us."

"Row!"

Kou Mei immediately pulled out a stack of star coins from her extradimensional storage space, then took the skill manual from my hand and started learning it directly.

……

"drop!"

Suddenly, a message arrived from Gunfire Like a Dragon: "Ding Han, where are you? Have you entered the battlefield?"

"Not yet, I just completed a mission on the edge of the battlefield."

I sent my current coordinates directly to the other party.

"That's practically on the battlefield, very close to us!" Gunfire Dragon said, "Enough talk, I'll send you the coordinates: Position 16. The Dark Tide is currently launching a fierce attack here, and killing Dark Tide units within the battlefield area grants extra reputation points. Quickly bring your men over; we need your firepower to suppress them!"

"coming!"

I nodded immediately, then located the position of "Shot Like a Dragon," and turned to the group, saying, "Next target: Position 16. The Crimson Cloud Alliance is over there. Let's go reinforce them!"

"go!"

Holding a submachine gun, Cai Cai looked on with longing. As a high-level firepower user, he had become more and more like a war maniac in "Star Abyss".

So, I led everyone crouching low and into the nearby woods, crossing the forest and reaching the edge of the battlefield.

"Boom boom boom~~~"

In the distance, the sound of bombs exploding continued. Position 16 was a high ground that separated the north and south of the battlefield. From afar, one could see familiar IDs appearing on the mountain position. Not only were there people from the Crimson Sky Alliance, but even the Uncontested One was guarding this place with people from the Old Royal Court. Basically, everyone in sight was a familiar face.

"Let's move in from the flank!"

I immediately summoned the Lord's Shield, protecting Kou Mei and Fatty as we charged up the rocky hill. The shield was immediately filled with the clanging of bullets, but with a powerful strength of 868 points, the shield remained firmly in place, and the damage from the Dark Tide was negligible, barely causing any pain.

"Shh!"

With a wave of her hand, Kou Mei sent a wisp of deep blue light falling from her fingertips, instantly forming a psionic barrier on the side. Sure enough, the bullets could no longer penetrate it and were absorbed by the psionic barrier, creating ripples.

"Wow, that's an amazing skill..."

Huo Bingzhi said, "It seems that these bullets have been absorbed, but where did they go?"

"It might be subspace."

As a Star Speaker, Faye Chaochen knew some of the inside story and said, "The psionic energy in Star Abyss comes from the Warp. Psionicists and Star Speakers are the link between the real world and the Warp. These bullets were most likely sent to the Warp."

"sharp……"

Fatty and I nodded in unison, feeling like we'd learned some useless knowledge again.

"Ding Han!"

Not far away, Yu Shi Wu Zheng pointed to the right and said, "The defense over there is a bit weak. Take some men and fill the gap!"

"They're here!" With a single glance, Cai Cai, Fatty, and the others entered their positions, each finding a spot on the hillside, skillfully setting up their guns, and beginning to fire!
In the air, shells whizzed past, blasting deep craters into the open ground behind them. Terrifying shockwaves, carrying smoke and dust, rippled back and forth, making the battlefield environment extremely harsh.

At this moment, the Dark Tide army was launching an attack. Countless tanks, in coordination with power armor warriors and vanguard members, were charging toward the Crimson Dragon Kingdom's position. Meanwhile, the Crimson Dragon Kingdom's counterattack was equally powerful, deploying a large number of power armor warriors and Crimson Dragon Legion soldiers. Fighter jets were constantly flying overhead, giving them absolute air superiority.

"Crack!"

I immediately switched to the Winter AMR and aimed at the driver's cab of the Dark Tide armored infantry vehicle, which was about 800 meters away. With a "bang," the bullet shattered on the bulletproof glass. Then, the second and third shots all hit the same spot, and the bulletproof glass was no longer bulletproof. Then, two more shots were fired without any gap!
"3527!"

"3682!"

……

In an instant, the infantry fighting vehicle driver was shot dead, causing the vehicle to quickly change direction and run over a second-generation armored soldier who cried out, "Ouch, damn it!"

Repeat the same tactic and continue to eliminate the enemy's infantry fighting vehicles.

In less than two minutes, a number of enemy infantry fighting vehicles had been disabled.

"Ding Han..."

Not far away, Yu Shi Wu Zheng turned to look at me, his eyes filled with shock: "Your marksmanship is amazing! What's your shooting rating?"

"An expert."

"Oh……"

His lips twitched slightly. He probably didn't expect that someone could already reach the fourth-level expert shooting level. Even if someone trained outside every day and had unlimited ammo, the highest shooting level they could reach at the moment should not be expert!
At this moment, the Dark Tide soldiers kept rushing onto the infantry fighting vehicles, kicking out the bodies of the dead drivers, and continuing to move forward.

No need for further explanation, they've just entered the effective range of the RPG, let's fire!

"Whoosh~~~"

A rocket with a trailing tail staggered out, tracing several irregular trajectories in the air before exploding on an infantry fighting vehicle, igniting the fuel tank beneath the vehicle and causing a secondary explosion.

Suddenly, my ears were filled with the ringing of bells that signaled the gain of experience and reputation points.

[Battle Notification: You have destroyed the Dark Tide Rhino-class Type II Infantry Fighting Vehicle. Rewards: Character Experience +40000, Reputation +40!]

[Battle Notification: The explosive fire from the Dark Tide Rhino-class Type II Infantry Fighting Vehicle has killed a member of the Vanguard Team. Rewards: Character Experience +800, Reputation +3!]

[Battle Notification: The explosive fire from the Dark Tide Rhino-class Type II Infantry Fighting Vehicle has killed a member of the Vanguard Team. Rewards: Character Experience +800, Reputation +3!]

……

A series of reward ringtones were dazzling, and I was so shocked that I couldn't close my mouth.

It has to be said that although rockets are expensive, they are really cost-effective. One rocket can wipe out an entire enemy infantry fighting vehicle and instantly gain a lot of experience and reputation points. That's so satisfying!
On the mountain ridge, the other players followed suit, and rockets, trailing little tails, rushed down the mountain.

Unfortunately, the rocket launchers that drop in Star Abyss are currently mostly unguided RPG-type launchers, which require a high level of aiming. If your shooting level is not high enough, you simply cannot win. Moreover, the enemy's infantry fighting vehicles are currently at the limit of their firing range. Therefore, even if ten rockets fly down from the mountain, you may not be able to hit the target even once.

I didn't care about anything else and continued loading the rockets, starting the second launch!

"Boom~~"

Another infantry fighting vehicle burst into flames, its progress abruptly halted, and a series of combat reward bells echoed in the air.

This kind of battle is kind of satisfying!
Soon after, the rockets in the extradimensional storage space were almost used up, so they dared not be reckless anymore. They immediately picked up the Winter AMR and continued to fire at the timid Dark Tide soldiers who dared not charge.

Thus, the two sides reached a stalemate.

It's night in a blink of an eye.

"drop!"

A WeChat message came from Lin Qingying. She sent a picture of two cups of milk tea on the coffee table at home and asked, "I'm home now, where are you?"

I slapped my forehead; I'd forgotten to tell her beforehand.

So, I sent a dog emoji: "Sorry Ying, I was in such a rush to leave that I forgot to tell you I have to go on a business trip today. It's a bit urgent, so I might not be back today. As for the milk tea..."

"I'll drink two glasses by myself!"

She replied with a comment and then sent an angry emoji.

……

Time flies, and before we knew it, it was late at night.

"Damn, I'm so hungry..."

The fat man turned around, leaned against the cover, took out a hamburger from his interdimensional storage space, and grinned, "Luckily I brought some delicious food. Wallace, you'll always deserve it."

"Ah, yes, yes, yes~~~"

Cai Cai said sarcastically, "Just don't get diarrhea on the battlefield."

But just then, a small bomb exploded behind us, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The fat man remained in the same position, but his entire body was covered in a layer of mud, and the hamburger was no exception.

"I'm sorry..."

He was a little broken.

……

Just then, a "hum" suddenly came from the air, and then a figure dragging a trail of fire landed heavily on the ground behind us. The next second, a huge thing stood up, its whole body humming with the sound of steel. The lights on its head, abdomen and legs turned on at the same time. It was a huge mech that was at least twenty meters tall!

"Depend on……"

The gun flashed like a dragon as it turned, staring at the mech, and muttered, "Crimson Dragon-class Titan Mech II... Are we about to launch a counterattack?!"
