Star Abyss Walker

Chapter 254 Ding Han, your crimes are heinous! You just wait!

"Ruolin, get out of the way!"

I yelled, but it was too late. The power sword still cleaved down, splitting Ruolin's shield in two, and then struck her body, dealing over 1 damage!
"Holy crap... what's going on!?" Cai Cai exclaimed in surprise.

At this moment, although everyone is unable to control their bodies, they are all conscious.

"It's over, it's over!"

While relentlessly shooting at Cai Cai's forehead, the fat man yelled, "Cai Cai, get out of the way! Are you just waiting to get your head blown off?!"

"Damn it, I want to dodge too, but I can't control it!"

"Hey, you idiot, stop poking my ass! Damn it, my reputation is ruined!"

"Little sister, hit her gently..."

"CaiCai, what are you doing with that RPG?!"

The next second, with a loud "bang," Cai Cai slammed a close-range RPG into the wall behind Fatty. The powerful impact shattered the balcony railing and hurled us all from the second floor. Damage numbers flashed brightly in the air—

"7872!"

"5433!"

"6799!"

"8022!"

……

Cai Cai used a purple RPG with a firepower of up to 1, but by this time everyone's armor was already quite considerable, so the hits didn't hurt that much. To be honest, this shot actually saved us from a difficult situation, blasting us all out of the Crimson Queen's "birthing room"!

Just as the distance between him and the Scarlet Queen increased to 10 meters, the feeling of being controlled suddenly disappeared!

"Fuck..."

I turned to Zhang Ruolin and asked, "Ruolin, how are you?"

"Not bad, the shield is broken!"

"Let's go back and fix it!"

I immediately switched to my bomb gun, flipped over the wall, and said, "Retreat! We can't fight this Crimson Queen like this, or we won't be so lucky next time!"

"Indeed, let's go!"

With everyone in complete agreement, they rushed up the wall and sped off towards the abandoned warehouse.

"Has the Scarlet Queen caught up yet?"

The fat man turned around, looked in the direction of the hospital, and asked with lingering fear.

"Maybe not……"

Cai Cai frowned and said, "Did you see that just now? The Scarlet Queen's entire body is embedded in a hardened nest that looks like a clam shell. That nest is probably made of the same material as the hardened spider web, and it's extremely sturdy. Following this trend, the Scarlet Queen's purpose is very clear: she wants to turn the entire base into her nest, and then continuously lay eggs here. Once those parasitic eggs grow up, they will reproduce infinitely, eventually ruling the human world and wiping us all out..."

"Nima."

Bingzi, sweating, said, "That sounds fucking scary."

"Alright, enough with the nonsense."

I looked into the distance and analyzed, "Based on the information we have so far, firstly, the Scarlet Queen should be a stationary unit, otherwise, given her temper, she would definitely chase after us and kill us all. Secondly, the Scarlet Queen's main methods are controlling other alien species and laying eggs. In addition, she can use hardened spider webs to reinforce her nest, so she is quite troublesome!"

"What should we do then?" Koumei asked, "Can we still have the fight?"

"It's not necessarily impossible to fight; we can give it a try."

Just then, a series of dense roars came from below. A large group of Tier 3 and Tier 2 aliens kept attacking the outer wall of the abandoned warehouse. They had obviously received orders from the Crimson Queen to kill us completely!
"withdraw!"

I made a snap decision: "Evacuate the base!"

"what?"

Zhang Ruolin's expression hardened: "Not playing anymore?"

"Just follow orders!"

"Oh!"

The group quickly left the warehouse and then withdrew from the base. Looking back, they were immediately terrified. They didn't know where so many alien creatures came from, and they had almost filled the area within two kilometers of the hospital. At this time, the forces of the Crimson Dragon Legion and the players were being squeezed outwards, especially the Crimson Dragon Legion, which suffered heavy losses.

"there!"

I measured the distance and pointed to the distance.

It was an abandoned building that was almost entirely made of reinforced concrete. It had long been abandoned due to years of disrepair and stood alone outside the base.

"Ding Han, what are you going to do?"

Zhang Ruolin, carrying a submachine gun, followed closely behind me as we climbed the stairs, completely bewildered.

"Go up to the roof."

I said in a deep voice, "I've measured it. It's about 2000 meters from here to the hospital. In addition, the angle of the rooftop is just right to have a perfect field of fire to hit the Scarlet Queen. All seven of us can switch to sniper rifles and snipe her accurately from 2000 meters away. We can kill the Scarlet Queen by piling up bullets. I can't think of a better way."

"I go……"

The fat man exclaimed with delight, "This is a great idea! I love it!"

He certainly likes it; it's probably the thing that firepower-focused players like the most.

……

Soon after, the group arrived at the fifth-floor rooftop of the abandoned building, lay down in a row, and each took out their own sniper rifle. Obviously, my sniper rifle was the best, the only orange-level sniper rifle with full firepower. With the added buff of level 10 shooting expert and my own 40% damage increase, this method of sniping the Crimson Queen was definitely the best choice!

"Aim and fire!"

"OK!"

The next moment, Winter AMR's scope was slightly raised and aimed at the Crimson Queen's head, followed by five consecutive shots with considerable damage.

"4004!"

"16884!"

"4003!"

"3987!"

"8422!"

All headshots, interspersed with a 50% headshot damage boost and critical hit damage effects, resulted in a fairly high overall output. With the addition of damage from Cai Cai, Fatty, Ruo Lin, and others, the Crimson Queen in the scope roared furiously, her health bar dropping rapidly!
Although she has high armor, high health, and fast health regeneration, based on our output, even without her health regeneration, we can basically reduce her health by about 7 within ten seconds. According to this calculation, we can take down the Crimson Queen in about 23 minutes!

This is the first kill of the first blue BOSS, and its significance is self-evident!

……

On the abandoned building, bullets flew into the hospital, leaving afterimages, while screams echoed from the hospital. The Crimson Queen angrily ordered a large number of alien creatures to emerge from the ground and launch a fierce attack on the players and the Red Dragon Kingdom's army from all directions. The battle in the entire base had turned into chaos!
"drop!"

A message came from Guns Out: "Ding Han, are you guys fighting the Crimson Queen?"

"Yes."

I smiled slightly: "We just entered the hospital and discovered that the Crimson Queen can control people's minds and trigger civil wars between players, which is quite terrifying. However, she also has a weakness, which is that she cannot move. So we found a shooting position and are trying to see if we can take down this blue BOSS by sniping from a distance!"

"Damn..." He was speechless.

"Want to get a piece of the pie, maybe even the first kill of the blue boss?" I asked with a smile.

"May I?"

"Of course, the Scarlet Queen isn't something we contracted out."

I immediately told the other side about the Scarlet Queen's exposed firing angle range, and also told Gun Out Like a Dragon to inform the guilds like Ember Domain and Old Court that if there's any meat, we should all share it. But since we've been fighting for almost ten minutes, if we're going to eat meat, we'll definitely get a little more.

Soon, from our perspective, many players appeared in various buildings and began firing at the BOSS from the same angle.

"Everyone's here..."

Cai Cai laughed and said, "Tsk tsk, the first kill of the blue BOSS is indeed attractive. But boss, won't this reduce our rewards?"

"Not really."

I shook my head: "Have you guys read the details of the 2.1 update?"

"No……"

A group of people shook their heads with righteous indignation.

I rolled my eyes and said, "One of the details is about the first kill of the BOSS. If the BOSS is killed by a large number of players, the top ten players in terms of output will be the main reward targets. The rest of the players will basically only get 1 achievement point and 1 charm point as a reward. Of course, everyone will get the blue treasure chest, but the main rewards are concentrated on the top ten treasure chests. The rest of the players will at most get some experience points or something."

"That makes perfect sense, keep going..."

The fat man grinned and continued shooting with undivided attention. After diligently leveling up and training, his level and skills had basically caught up with Cai Cai's. Even if there was a gap, it wouldn't be too big. At this point, he was determined to be among the top ten in terms of first kill contribution, so he was naturally full of enthusiasm.

The crackling sounds continued, and with the addition of other players, the time to defeat the BOSS was greatly shortened. In just 15 minutes, the Crimson Queen's health bar was already depleted.

Immediately, with the double damage from my headshot and critical hit, the Crimson Queen's head exploded, followed by her body bursting apart, resulting in a gruesome death.

A notification bell rang in my ear—

[Congratulations! You are about to trigger a system announcement. Would you like to publish your ID?]

Needless to say, we need to keep a low profile!

I chose to hide it!
The next moment, a bell rang out, echoing throughout the Star Abyss World for all players—

[Congratulations to the player team led by player "*Shadow" for successfully defeating the Crimson Queen (the cyan boss), achieving the first kill of the cyan boss. Player "*Shadow" ranked first in contribution and received the following rewards: 850 million character experience, 5000 reputation points, +6 achievement points, and +3 charm points, plus an additional reward: a Dimensional Expansion Crystal (expansion space: 2.5 cubic meters)!]

……

This is the first announcement from "Star Abyss," but seeing the word "*Shadow," I couldn't help but twitch my lips. Not bad, the ID is indeed hidden, but not completely.

And right now, a lot of players must be laughing. The first kill of the cyan BOSS, and the final reward is just a Dimensional Expansion Crystal? How bad is that luck?!
Everyone is numb!

"what about you?"

I looked at everyone: "Did you get the cyan equipment?"

"No……"

Ruolin and Koumei both shook their heads.

After exchanging information, we found that the best reward went to Kou Mei, who received an orange-level spirit power equipment. The best reward for everyone else was probably my 2.5 cubic meter expansion crystal.

"My luck has been so-so..."

Cai Cai's lips twitched slightly: "It's okay, there's still the cyan ability crystal treasure chest!"

"Yes, yes, let's open the treasure chest!"

The next moment, I took out my cyan ability crystal and opened it without hesitation. Immediately, two system bells rang in my ears—

[Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the item: [Forest Whisperer Armor] (Quality: Cyan)!]

[Congratulations! You are about to trigger a system announcement. Would you like to publish your ID?]

……

"Om~~~"

My mind went completely blank. A blue-tier item really dropped?!

Moreover, this is destined to be the first piece of cyan equipment in the entire server, because an announcement was triggered!
Let's keep a low profile...

The next second, a bell rang throughout the entire server!

[Congratulations to player〖*Shadow〗 for successfully obtaining the first piece of cyan quality equipment in the entire server! Additional rewards: Achievement +3, Charm +1!]

……

Within the Star Chart, a vibration occurred, originating from a newly added optimization feature: the bullet screen function!
The so-called bullet screen refers to the bullet screen that players can send within the local star map. It does not deduct any experience points, but the bullet screen lacks the precise person-finding and direct notification functions of star map speech.

In short, the more it consumes, the stronger its function becomes; this is inevitable.

At this moment, the comments section within the star map rapidly filled the screen—

Player Grandma's Legs: Holy crap, who is this big shot? The first and second announcements in the entire server are both his...

Player Milk Tea Life-Extending Immortal: This is truly a low-key master, hahaha~~~
Player Gun Like a Dragon: Ahem, Ding Han, isn't this a bit of a cover-up?
Player: Hahaha, I'm going to die laughing at the comments today.

……

I was a bit speechless, but I didn't post any comments. Comments only stay on screen for a few seconds. However, they leave a trace, which may become an important source of information for private transactions in the future.

"Boss, blue armor... isn't that awesome?" Cai Cai suddenly asked.

"Let me take a look..."

Only then did I turn my gaze to the interdimensional storage space, where a suit of armor gleaming with a deep blue light sat quietly in the corner, exuding an aura of majesty. My gaze lingered on it briefly, and detailed data began to float out—

[Forest Whisperer Armor] (Quality: Cyan)
Rank: Fifth Tier

Defense: 400
Strength: +50
Physical strength: +48
Spirit: +46
Specialty: Attack damage +14%
Blessing: Damage reduction +4%
Blessing: Mighty Force - II, increases attack power by 400 points.
Blessing: Rock-II, increases defense by 400 points.
Blessing: Resilience, increases your maximum health by 4500 points.

Burst Skill: [Breath of the Forest Speaker], awakens the life energy within the armor, restoring 5% of the user's health per second for 10 seconds, consumes 30 Yuan Power, and has a 5-minute cooldown.
Strength required: 900
……

'Holy shit...'

Looking at the stats of this cyan breastplate, I was dumbfounded. This is the first cyan piece of equipment in the entire server, it must have some kind of luck bonus, right? Otherwise, how could it possibly combine increased damage, reduced damage, immense strength, rock-solid, and burst skill all in one? Five god-tier affixes, the stats are practically perfect!
"Can we take a look?" Ruolin asked with a smile.

"Stop looking, shall we?"

I suppressed my joy and said in a calm tone, "I'm afraid you'll feel uncomfortable after seeing this."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Cai Cai said, "No matter how good the equipment our boss gets is, it's still good news for our team. I, Cai Cai, am definitely not the kind of person who holds grudges, so boss, you can rest assured and post the encyclopedia."

"That's only circulating within our team. We'll only share the picture to avoid others getting jealous!"

"necessary!"

The next moment, I posted the stats of the Forest Speaker Armor in the team chat, and immediately CaiCai, Fatty, and the others started exclaiming "Holy crap~~ Holy crap~~~" nonstop.

"This armor is invincible..."

Huo Bingzhi grinned and said, "Congratulations, boss! Your tankiness has definitely surpassed Sister Ruolin's now!"

"what?"

Zhang Ruolin looked suspicious: "Hasn't Ding Han always been more frank than me?"

"That's true..."

The fat man laughed and said, "Ding Han, what about the Gray Knight Armor you took off?"

"I'll give you the Gray Knight Armor once I reach level 50 and complete the fifth job advancement quest."

"Great……"

"Nima..."

Cai Cai picked her nose: "I'm really upset right now!" "Hahahaha~~~"

The fat man, emboldened, put his arm around Cai Cai's shoulder and said, "When I also get a blue-quality item, the Gray Knight's Armor will be yours, won't it?"

"Wait for my ass..."

Cai Cai was speechless.

I took another look at the attributes of the Forest Whisperer Armor. In the Star Abyss setting, cyan equipment is ranked S6, which is already considered mid-to-high-level equipment. Moreover, its attributes have been explosively improved, changing from two attributes to three attributes, adding strength, stamina, and spirit. As a result, if I can collect a full set of cyan equipment, the improvement in pure attributes will be quite significant!

Unfortunately, the experience required to reach level 50 is just too much, and even getting the first kill reward is still not enough to level up!
However, the mission is not over yet. Currently, the alien species in the base are fleeing like madmen because of the death of the Crimson Queen, which is a golden opportunity to gain a lot of experience.

"Shall we go and grind for some more experience?" I suggested.

"go!"

Without hesitation, everyone quickly followed me out of the abandoned building and pushed straight in from the front.

About half an hour later, he entered the hospital with Gun Dragon, Uncontested by the World and others. At this time, the hospital was filled with densely packed alien corpses, which had basically been cleared out.

"Boss!"

On the second floor, a familiar figure appeared. It was the big-eyed, cute girl named "Zhi Xiao" from the old royal court, a level 48 psionicist. She was a little excited and said, "There are quite a few still-active parasitic eggs in the Crimson Queen's corpse. Each one we destroy will give us 100 million experience points. What should we do with them?"

"Holy crap, so many experience points?"

Gunshot Like a Dragon hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Understood, tell your men to restrain themselves and not to fire yet..."

As he spoke, he turned around and walked over: "Ding Han, how many more points do you need to reach 50?"

"Let me see……"

He glanced at the experience bar and said, "There are still 1400 million left..."

"alright."

"Spear Like a Dragon" looked at "Unconcerned with the World" and said, "Old Yu, we're both already level 50, we don't need any more experience. Let's give these parasitic eggs to Ding Han so he can reach level 50 sooner."

"can!"

With a carefree and easygoing smile, he said, "Ding Han, go ahead."

"Thank you very much!"

Without hesitation, I went upstairs immediately. Sure enough, the Scarlet Queen had laid a lot of orange parasitic eggs, about 50 or more. So I just opened fire and shot them one by one, and I could get 100 million experience points for each one I destroyed.

After taking down 14, I immediately put away my gun and said, "I've leveled up to 50. The rest are yours."

"OK!"

After discussing it, the two members, "Swordsman Like a Dragon" and "Unconcerned with the World," decided to let the remaining 30+ parasitic eggs go to their respective guild's seed players.

"Shh!"

A golden ray of light fell, and I reached level 50. I felt a sense of satisfaction, and I could now activate the fifth job advancement quest at any time.

But don't rush. This is a dangerous area, and it's unwise to do missions here. It's better to wait until we return to Huaining City before activating the fifth job advancement mission.

Soon after, the players completely captured the base, and a bell rang, signaling the distribution of the mission rewards.

[Congratulations on completing the regional quest "Demon's Lair" (S-rank)! Rewards: Character Experience +600 million, Reputation Points +1850, Charisma Points +1. Due to your outstanding performance in the quest, you also receive an additional reward: "Dimensional Expansion Crystal" (Expansion Space: 2.5 cubic meters)!]

……

Damn, are they really going all out against Expansion Crystal today?
I frowned. While I do need expansion crystals, I'd prefer to get them from blue or purple treasure chests, as those are more cost-effective. High-level treasure chests and high-level quest rewards are better suited for equipment and skill books!
However, expanding the storage space by 5 cubic meters today is actually not bad, especially considering that we also obtained the Forest Whisperer Armor. This mission can be considered a complete success!
"Come on, go home."

Eager to return home, everyone pulled out their off-road motorcycles and sped back. Soon after, they stepped into the teleportation array and returned to the player black market.

"Ding Han!"

After waiting a few minutes, Gun Out Like a Dragon arrived and traded the Nightblade for 80. I didn't get much else this time. The dozen or so blue equipment I got were sold and just enough to offset the bullet effect. So my personal savings net profit increased by 80, bringing the total to 232 Star Coins. I'm getting closer and closer to the 350 Star Coins for the Maybach S680!

It's 2 p.m. now.

Zhang Ruolin suggested, "Let's have a meal together before we leave. The chicken and frog hot pot we had at Feiyang Internet Cafe last time was delicious. Shall we go and enjoy it again?"

"Okay, I'm fine with it!"

I immediately agreed. I also wanted to go to the internet cafe to check out the machines that were malfunctioning and fix them while I was at it. I couldn't stop gaining skills and experience.

"Let's go, let's eat!"

A group of people arrived at the dry pot restaurant in a great hurry, ordered a table full of delicious food, and then enjoyed their meal. After finishing, they all left, and I returned to the internet cafe.

……

"Ding Han?"

Zhao Yihang looked at me in surprise: "Didn't the boss say you took the day off today?"

"You finished quickly, so you came back early. Were there any malfunctioning machines?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I've saved them all for you!"

Four machines malfunctioned. Although they were all minor issues, the skill experience gained from repairing them was still substantial. I gradually figured out some of the settings in "Star Abyss". As long as it wasn't done intentionally, the repair experience was generally quite good. However, if you broke the machine yourself or assembled it, the skill experience gained would be less. The main point is to prevent cheating.

After getting everything sorted out, I rested for a while in my network administrator's chair before getting up to complete my fifth job advancement quest.

But just at the door, she ran into Lu Xiaobei.

She held a piece of preserved vegetable and meat pie in her hand, crunching as she took bites. It was not only crispy but also smelled delicious.

"Lu Xiaobei!"

"what?"

She was taken aback: "What?"

"As the owner, instead of staying in the internet cafe, you're out gallivanting around. I'm confiscating this pancake!"

As she spoke, a graceful "flying dragon soaring through the clouds" move transferred the dried plum and vegetable cake from Lu Xiaobei's hand to her own. The movement was so fast that she foolishly bit into empty air.

"Ding Han!"

She rushed out of the internet cafe and grabbed me, yelling, "Give me back my pancake! Where are you going?"

I lowered my voice and whispered in her ear, "I'm level 50, I'm going to do the fifth job advancement quest."

"what?"

Her eyes lit up: "Want me to come along?"

"dream!"

I ate the pancake as I sped away in the cold wind.

"Ding Han, you are utterly wicked! Just you wait!"

Lu Xiaobei angrily jumped up and down, cursing a couple of times, then went into the internet cafe to vent her anger on Zhao Yihang.

……

In the alley, after confirming the activation of the fifth job advancement quest, a bell rang in my ears—

[You have activated the quest "Lava Insect Nest" (Tier 5 Breakthrough Quest)! Quest objective: Enter the Lava Insect Nest and eliminate all the insects within 120 minutes. You will then be eligible to advance to Tier 5!]

……

The standard breakthrough missions primarily test the player's output efficiency.

The job breakthrough quests in "Star Abyss" will be somewhat difficult, but not too difficult. These breakthrough quests will definitely stump some players, but they will not stump even a top-tier player like me, so the problem is definitely not too big.

He pulled out the Power Sword Storm Skill Manual from his storage space and began to learn it!

"Ding dong!"

[System Notification: You have not yet achieved the fifth tier of "Starry Sky Super Weapon - Sword Specialization" and cannot learn this skill!]

really.

I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and the slight hope in my heart vanished. Although the skill description of Power Sword Storm required level 50, it was actually a fifth-tier skill. So even if I reached level 50, I still couldn't learn it without fifth job advancement.

So, the dream of using the powerful Power Sword Storm to farm bugs has been shattered.

"call……"

Opening the map, the breakthrough mission portal spawned about 10 kilometers away. After looking around and finding no one, he took out the off-road motorcycle from the interdimensional storage space and sped out of the alley, heading straight for his destination!

Not long after, I rode my motorcycle into a mountain range in the suburbs. Looking up, I saw that it was one of the cemeteries in Huaining City. The mountain was not lush and green at the time, so I could see a large number of cemeteries at a glance.

With the roar of the motorcycle engine, they went straight up the mountain, then put the motorcycle away and headed straight for a cemetery.

"Young man, what are you doing?!"

Just then, an old man wearing an armband waved from afar.

"..."

Standing in front of the portal, I didn't say anything, but just grinned at the old man with a strange smile, and then stepped into the portal!
"what!!"

Outside, the old man screamed as if he had seen a ghost; he would probably remember this scene for the rest of his life!

"Shua~~~"

A flash of light appeared before my eyes, and I was instantly thrust into a scorching area. Opening my eyes, I found myself in a fiery lava landscape, surrounded by swarms of insects. In addition, a grayish instrument embedded in the wall suddenly projected a holographic image of a figure appearing in front of me.

He was a general clad in fourth-generation power armor, frowning as he looked at the insect hive. He said, "These damned insects keep encroaching on our human territory; it's utterly despicable! Young warrior, if you can wipe out the entire swarm within the lava hive within 120 minutes, I will bestow upon you the highest honor on behalf of the Republic's Hall of Swords and Martial Arts!"

I nodded: "Don't worry, I've got it covered!"

"Very well, go ahead! I'll be here waiting for your good news."

Inside the hood, he revealed a satisfied smile, then stepped back slightly and disappeared into the holographic light screen.

……

Turn around and step into the depths of the lava worm nest.

Within the irregular lava terrain, embryos containing first-tier nest insects were constantly wriggling, radiating fiery red energy. The insect swarm here was different from those outside, seemingly containing stronger fire-attribute life energy.

"Zhizhi~~"

The next second, a swarm of nest insects attacked!
This is easy. Just take out the bomb gun and order the autoloading robot to replace all the magazines with AOE damage bombs. Then it started to wreak havoc. With the sound of gunfire, fan-shaped bomb kill zones spread out in the swarm, killing in large numbers. Except for the high consumption, everything else was perfect.

About 20 minutes later, I wiped out all the nest bugs at the bottom. As I climbed up with my bomb gun, I heard a chilling "hehehe" sound.

It's a Tier 2 Zerg unit, the Hydralisk!

On the scorching slope, swarms of hydralisks roared wildly. They were all level 50 blue bosses, and they even started spitting out ground spikes to launch ranged attacks!
For the average player, this stage could be quite tricky, since the Hydralisk has a health bar of 10, and attacking it with firearms would be rather inefficient.

But I didn't have that concern. With Stardust Wall and Battle Cry activated, I switched my main weapon to a power sword and charged straight into the scorpion monster horde. I swung my sword at their slender necks, killing them in the process. At the same time, the 24% life steal also brought out a dazzling array of green healing numbers!
"100000!"

"+24000!"

"100000!"

"+24000!"

"100000!"

"+24000!"

……

This feeling is amazing!

Every time, after being focused down by the Hydralisks and losing a small amount of health, the next attack will restore it to full health. So even without Stardust Wall or Annihilation Armor, it can still maintain its health above 80%!

After all, my armor, health, and resistances are far superior to those of these Tier 2 Hydralisks!

After a frenzied hacking session lasting about ten minutes, an entire patch of hydralisks was reduced to corpses, emitting a strong, strange, bloody stench.

Continuing forward, two colossal creatures snaked and intertwined, their bodies constantly emitting purple lightning. They were actually two Tier 3 Thunder Serpents, level 50 purple BOSSes!

"Hiss~~~"

Razer was ruthless; without saying a word, they split into two groups and came at once!

I didn't hold back either. I lowered my body and activated Stardust Wall, Heavenly Craftsmanship, War Cry, and Unstoppable Force. Then, I used a burst of energy to stun one of the hydras. I swung my power sword and unleashed a series of attacks with a series of "thuds". In one go, I almost exhausted my energy points, causing a massive amount of damage of over 30!
"hiss--"

The attacked Razer howled incessantly, its seven-inch mark covered in countless sword wounds. Even though its body was quite robust, the nearly 0.8-meter cut was still a serious injury, causing it to bleed profusely and its health bar to drop rapidly!
He took out his UZI and unleashed a barrage of bullets at the wound!

Another lightning serpent roared and suddenly attacked from the flank, its blood-red maw opening wide to bite. However, the Stardust Wall's skill mechanism has a "collision volume," so the lightning serpent could not bite in at all. Its sharp teeth, gleaming with a cold light, rubbed against the outside of the Stardust Wall, creating a lot of sparks, but could not cause any damage.

"Shh!"

With a single Rising Dragon Slash, I sent him flying. I immediately switched to my bomb gun and unleashed another burst at the low-health Thunder Serpent, blasting away its last bit of health in the blink of an eye. With a wail, it collapsed to the ground, surrounded by a pool of fiery red blood!
He turned around, drew his power sword, and eyed the second Lizard menacingly!
"His-"

It was actually a little timid, its vertical pupils showing hesitation, but reason could not overcome wildness in the end, and the next second it rushed over and launched a biting and strangling attack!
Without a doubt, he wielded his power sword wildly, each strike aimed at the snake's vitals. He constantly dodged attacks while switching to his firearms for short-range damage, completely manipulating the snake.

The purple boss was ultimately too weak to defeat!

After a mournful cry, the second lightning serpent also crashed to the ground, transforming into a large amount of white light that flew over.

carry on.

Carrying my power sword, I embarked on my journey once more. Ahead lay the edge of the Lava Bug Nest. Amidst a jagged expanse of fiery red lava, I saw a figure about three meters tall, hunched over, its tiny, beady eyes fixed intently on me. Two scythes, each two meters long, slowly opened, like a mantis facing an enemy!
Good heavens, finally we've seen a Tier 4 Zerg unit!
Blade Worm, a Tier 4 Zergling, Level 50 Orange Boss!

Although its attributes are limited by the space of the breakthrough mission and are far inferior to the orange BOSS on large maps such as the wilderness, these attributes are still quite amazing. Players who are not strong enough really cannot take it on alone.

Hehehe~~~

The knife worm also called that. Suddenly, it pushed off with both legs and its entire body turned into a blur as it attacked. Its scythe was as fast as lightning and its attack was extremely fierce!

So fast!

My heart sank. Fortunately, we haven't entered the 3.0 Rise of the Zerg version yet. Otherwise, with the speed of the Zerglings, many players would probably be caught off guard and killed if they launched a surprise attack. That's foreseeable!
"Pong!"

The moment the Stardust Wall opened, I leaped and tumbled in mid-air, almost perfectly dodging the opponent's attack. At the same time, my power sword flashed, directly slashing at the scythe that the Blade Worm used to launch a sneak attack!

"Crack!"

With a soft click, the scythe was severed in the middle, and green blood splattered everywhere. At the same time, a damage number of 80+ appeared above the head. The moment it came into contact with the target, it was severely injured!
"Jie Jie—"

Enraged, it turned around and roared, its mouth wide open, and more than a dozen barbed tongues danced wildly, sending chills down one's spine!

Instead of retreating, I advanced, unleashing a combination of Heavenly Creation, War Cry, Unstoppable Force, and Burst Charge, instantly stunning the Blade Worm in place. Then, I used a Frostbite to freeze it in place with a single sword strike!

"Thump thump thump~~~"

The moment the freeze was complete, it leaped into the air on its broken scythe, its feet landing on either side of the blade worm. With a series of "crackling" swings, it cleaved off the remaining main scythe and four "secondary" scythes, instantly inflicting massive damage!

Although the body of the knife worm appears huge, its size is actually due to its spiky fur, much like some Ragdoll cats that look fat but are actually quite thin, simply because they have a lot of fur.

Therefore, the slender limbs of the Bladebug are easily severed by the Power Sword, resulting in severe damage. It can be said that the Fat Bug has an absolute advantage when attacked by the Power Sword!
Hehehe~~~

The moment the icy star thawed, the knife worm roared, its severed forelimbs flailing wildly, and it opened its blood-red maw to tear me upwards, seemingly trying to rip me off from above.

However, I didn't give it a chance at all. I was incredibly agile and leaped down from its head with a "whoosh". The moment I rolled to the ground, my power sword swept across and "crack~crack~" twice, cleanly severing its two legs, which were used to support its body and were covered with sharp hairs!
"call……"

I quickly retreated, looking at the fallen knife worm, and felt a slight sense of joy. It seemed that after many battles, my melee skills had truly begun to transform, and my moves were getting cooler and cooler!
