Star Abyss Walker

Chapter 293: Steal half a day’s leisure

Early morning at Feiyang Internet Cafe.

As he sat in the manager's office, sipping the milk tea Lu Xiaobei had bought, a sudden "ding" sounded in his ear, followed by an interface appearing before his eyes, with blue text continuously appearing at the bottom:

[Guide GM]: Ding Han, Ash Plains drops mid-to-high-level skill books. Currently, players from the three major factions of the Chinese server, Star Maple Federation, and Dark Tide are vying for control of Ash Plains. Are you really not considering joining the battle?

Wow, this is a direct dialogue between the GM and the player, which sounds really high-level!
"I don't want to participate in this meaningless PK. Sorry, guide, I have other things to do."

"Ok."

The dialog box disappeared, and the game interface in front of us gradually vanished.

A few minutes later.

"drop!"

A voice call request came from Gunfire Like a Dragon.

"Alliance Leader Long, you're not here to act as a lobbyist for the Guide, are you?"

"That's not it."

"The fighting in Ash Plains is quite intense. Because the monsters are scattered, players basically don't team up. Even if they do, it's just a small team of a few people. From midnight last night to 9 am this morning, according to incomplete statistics, there have been more than 1200 local PK battles, and both sides have lost a lot of people."

"This map only drops Tier 3 and Tier 4 skill manuals, so why is it so attractive to both sides?"

"Initially it was indeed because of the drop, but later it wasn't. The two sides have really fought, constantly sending reinforcements, and now the entire Ash Plains is in a chaotic battle."

Gunshot Like a Dragon gave a meaningful smile: "Did the guide send you a GM message?"

"Ah."

"I told you before, the guide is a very straightforward person, the kind of person with a fiery temper. Don't be fooled by his usual calm demeanor, it's all an act for the players. This morning, seeing so many players in Huaining City losing their Resurrection Scriptures in Ash Plains, he got a little anxious."

"Leader Dragon, I really don't want to go to the Ash Plains. I have little interest in this kind of war where people fight each other for the resources that spawn."

"Understand."

"You go ahead and do your thing," said Gun Churulong. "I'll go check on the Guide. He seems desperate and wants to collect some kind of world contribution. I wonder what he's up to."

The two parties ended the call abruptly.

Then, CaiCai sent a message: "Boss, shall we go to Ash Plains?"

"If there's no benefit, we won't go. It would just be a waste of the Resurrection Scripture. Our team only has a few Resurrection Scriptures, so let's not squander them. It's unnecessary. We should use our resources wisely."

"Understood, I'll go back to sleep now."

"What the hell time is it? Still sleeping!"

"Yeah, I'll use my phone to ask a girl nearby to have breakfast with me."

"..."

I was speechless. This Cai Cai is really neglecting her duties.

……

At noon, I ate a boxed lunch at the bar on the first floor of Feiyang Internet Cafe.

"Ding Han, last month's report is out, take a look."

Chen Xiaoman held a boxed lunch in one hand and handed over the report in the other.

I glanced at it and couldn't help but be slightly taken aback. Just last month, the total recharge amount of the Huaining flagship store alone reached as high as 64 yuan, while the net profit of the milk tea bar and restaurant reached as high as 31 yuan. This profit is a bit terrifying. It should be able to recover all the investment within half a year.

In this era, internet cafes are definitely the way to go!

Of course, who knows what will happen in a few years.

"That's good, hang in there!"

I smiled slightly: "The future of our internet cafe will definitely get better and better!"

In an instant, Chen Xiaoman and the girls at the milk tea bar nodded in unison.

"Ding Han".

Lu Xiaobei, holding a lunchbox, turned to me and said, "Come with me this afternoon. Let's check on the construction of the e-sports hotel. Although Sister Cheng Shuang is a trustworthy person, we can't just ignore it completely; that would seem a bit irresponsible."

"Sure, I'll go check it out after I finish eating."

"Uh-huh!"

"Can I come with you?" Zhao Yihang asked, as if he was getting restless from being cooped up in the internet cafe.

"Since you don't have a position at the e-sports hotel, you should stay at the internet cafe and be its mascot."

Lu Xiaobei rejected the request without hesitation.

Zhao Yihang felt a little helpless, but Lu Xiaobei didn't seem to be wrong.

……

In the afternoon, Lu Xiaobei drove the company's Cayenne to the Huaining flagship store of Feiyang Chain E-sports Hotel.

Upon arrival at the store, the construction team from Cheng's Group was resting and having lunch.

So, Lu Xiaobei and I went to the construction site ourselves. In just a few days, the hotel's decoration had changed dramatically, completely different from the original Keyi Chain style.

The e-sports rooms are full of technology, with double rooms, four-person rooms, and even "dormitory-style" suites for six people to play together. The lake-view rooms facing East Lake adopt an "inn style", giving people a relaxed sense of belonging.

When we arrived at the hotel’s backyard, a small section of the terrace had been laid, and in the distance, workers were diligently laying the foundation for the lakeside restaurant.

"They've worked so hard..."

Lu Xiaobei suddenly said something.

"Knowing how hard they work, shouldn't we show our appreciation? Let's count the total number of staff and order a milk tea for each of them," I suggested.

"good idea!"

Lu Xiaobei nodded happily and immediately went to find the other party's leader, ordering 50 extra-large cups of "Bo Ya Jue Xian" to be delivered to the construction site.

"Don't you usually like to drink Coco? Why did you order BaWang ChaJi this time?" I asked.

"That's just because I prefer Coco, but others might not. BaWang ChaJi is so popular now, so I ordered Boya Juexian."

"sensible!"

"Humph!"

After personally serving the milk tea, Lu Xiaobei brought over two cups and said with a smile, "There are a few extra cups, don't waste them."

"Ah."

I took the milk tea, took a sip, put it on the center console, and said, "Back to the internet cafe?"

"It is too early?"

Lu Xiaobei said, "Ding Han, do you still remember the Wutong Inn? It's the filming location for the 'No Makeup' MV?"

"Of course I remember, it left a deep impression on me."

"Do you still remember the address? Let's drive over and have a chat."

"Why are you going there?"

"Market research, huh? We've already got one foot in the hotel industry, can't we at least learn more about our competitors?"

I suspect this was just an excuse; she probably just wanted to take advantage of the leisurely afternoon to go to the Wutong Inn and enjoy the lake breeze.

……

Shortly after, we drove to Wutong Inn.

The boss was still the same boss, and also a player. The moment Lu Xiaobei and I parked the car and walked into the yard, he recognized us at a glance.

"You've arrived..."

"Ah."

I nodded and smiled: "Boss, how's business at the inn lately?"

"It's alright, but it doesn't really matter. I opened the inn to pass the time, not to make a lot of money or anything."

"Boss, I really admire your business philosophy. It's idealistic and open-minded. That's how life should be!"

Lu Xiaobei gave the boss a thumbs up.

The boss was flattered and said, "Oh, it's not that impressive anymore. It's just that I'm middle-aged now, and I've come to terms with many things. I've given up and don't want to fight for anything anymore."

"Boss, Xiao Bei and I would like to sit on the outdoor terrace for a while. Would you like two cups of coffee?"

"Okay, do you want the premium version or the instant version?"

"It has to be high-end, money's no object!"

"Haha, okay, please wait a moment!"

So, Lu Xiaobei and I sat on the terrace under the parasol by the lake, sipping coffee and looking at the scenery of East Lake.

East Lake is a "semi-developed" scenic area. Although the commercial atmosphere is becoming increasingly strong, there has been no large-scale development of yacht projects on the lake so far. After all, if there are too many boats and people on the lake, it will also be a kind of damage to the natural scenic spot.

Lu Xiaobei enjoyed the tranquility of the moment.

She took out her phone, took a few pictures of the lake view, and then took a few selfies with East Lake as the background. When she looked at me, she hesitated to speak.

I guess I subconsciously wanted to take a photo with them, but then I realized it wasn't appropriate to take a photo with them now.

A few seconds later, Lu Xiaobei posted a message on her WeChat Moments.

The tagline is "Stealing half a day of leisure from a busy life".

"Ding Han".

She put down her phone, looked at East Lake, and said softly, "I heard from Milo that you and Lin Qingying are together?"

"Ah."

I nodded: "We're together."

In an instant, Lu Xiaobei turned her head away, no longer looking at me, and secretly wiped away her tears.

"Xiao Bei, I'm sorry."

"No need to apologize."

Lu Xiaobei's shoulders trembled slightly. With her back to me, she said in a tearful voice, "I'll only cry this once. I'll never cry again."

I remained silent, perhaps out of guilt, for anything I said at that moment would seem inadequate.

After a while, Lu Xiaobei finished crying.

He took out sunglasses from his bag, put them on, and smiled, saying, "Now that we're together, you should treat Lin Qingying well, but we'll still be good friends, right?"

"Ah."

I nodded and said, "Me, you, and Milo, our trio will always be friends who would go to great lengths for each other!"

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Lu Xiaobei looked into the distance and said, "I really like this Wutong Inn. If I have the chance in the future, I'd like to open an inn like this. Do you think this idea is feasible?"

"feasible."

I analyzed, "But don't be too envious of Wutong Inn, because the terrace behind our Feiyang Esports Hotel will have a similar view in the future, and there will also be a lakeside terrace and a restaurant. The overall view will be even better than here. Moreover, your first album will be released soon and it will definitely be a hit. At that time, the song copyrights and brand endorsements alone will be an unimaginable astronomical figure. Opening a small inn like this will be a piece of cake."

She smiled and said, "Now that you mention it, it's like I've seen a glimmer of hope again in my gray world."

I remained silent, simply sitting quietly with Lu Xiaobei.

……

Evening, Feiyang Internet Cafe.

Lin Qingying messaged me saying she had three meetings that night and needed to work overtime, so I stayed at Feiyang Internet Cafe to continue eating my boxed lunch with chicken legs.

"drop!"

Just as I was gnawing on a chicken leg, the game interface reappeared before my eyes, and the blue characters unique to GMs reappeared.

[GM Guide]: Ding Han, our Chinese server players have suffered heavy losses on Ash Plains. It seems that players from the Star Maple Federation and Dark Tide factions have formed an alliance. In just one afternoon, our Huaining City player faction lost 24 Resurrection Scriptures. I know you don't want to participate in this meaningless PK, but it's okay. I will soon make this battle meaningful.

"..."

I was completely baffled and had no idea what he was trying to do.

"Zhou Jihuan, don't act rashly..."

"My mind is made up, and I've always been impulsive, haha~~~"

He immediately ended the call, and a few minutes later, a loud ringtone sounded in his ear, almost deafening:
[Please note that the Challenge Mission "Battle of Ash Plains" (S-rank) is now officially live! All players in Huaining City will receive the mission immediately! Issued by: Guide; Mission Content: Ash Plains is engulfed in a chaotic battle. Please head to Ash Plains to slay enemies. Each enemy player killed will earn you 1 Honor Point. Players can use Honor Points to exchange for their desired treasures in the temporary "Honor Shop." Treasures are limited in quantity and available on a first-come, first-served basis, so don't miss this opportunity!]

'Holy shit...'

I frowned. This person who leads things is definitely impulsive!

The next moment, I opened the mission details. Sure enough, a "Honor Shop" that looked like a small golden house appeared in the mission interface. After opening the shop, I found a wide variety of treasures, from blue equipment to cyan equipment, and even a pink submachine gun with super explosive firepower!
The redemption requirement for this submachine gun is 300 honor points, which means you need to kill 300 foreign players in the wilderness to redeem it.

However, almost all foreign players who enter Ash Plains possess the Resurrection Scripture, and players who cannot resurrect would never go to such a place with an extremely low survival rate.

Therefore, the enemy players on Ash Plains will be quite powerful. Our side is elite, and the enemy side is also elite. It will not be easy to obtain the honor of killing the enemy.

A pink submachine gun wasn't enough to excite me.

However, this submachine gun was only ranked second in the store. When I saw the first one, my expression changed immediately. The first one was actually a pink power shield called "Honor Bulwark"!
A power shield, as the name suggests, is a shield that can generate a destructive force field on its surface. Compared to ordinary shields, the "shield strike" effect of a power shield is more lethal!
In addition, the destructive force field on the surface of the power shield can withstand attacks from powered weapons!

In fact, the value of a power shield is no less than that of a power weapon!
Who would have thought that the Guide would be so ruthless? He actually exchanged a pink power shield from the system's treasure vault!
However, the conditions for exchanging this power shield are even more stringent, requiring a whopping 500 honor points!
This means you have to get over 500 kills to get the shield, and you have to get there before other players, otherwise it's all for nothing.

It's a big challenge, but it seems worth a try!
……

"Fuck..."

In the team chat, Cai Cai asked, "Brothers, have you all checked the honor shop for this challenge mission?"

"Looked."

Ruolin exclaimed, "Glory Barrier, second-generation power shield... My God, what kind of rare treasures are these..."

"Damn it, I'm so jealous!"

Huo Bingzhi said, "At this stage, whoever can get their hands on this pink power shield would be invincible. The armor and defense would be so strong, it's unbelievable."

"Ding Han".

The fat man said, "You're the only one in our team with this opportunity to build a power shield. Do you have any ideas?"

"Yeah."

Aki said, "Only the boss has a chance to challenge the power shield. The rest of us can only think about the pink submachine gun, or at worst, the cyan equipment below. We can collect the cyan equipment and get the full cyan achievement as soon as possible."

The Honor Shop has over 40 pieces of cyan equipment, which should satisfy the needs of many top-tier players. I frowned: "It's been 19 hours since midnight yesterday, but I haven't been to Ash Plains yet. My current honor points are 0. Would it be too late to go now? What are the honor points of other players in Huaining City? Does anyone have any information?"

"I know a little."

While everyone was completely bewildered, it was the meticulous Ruolin who stepped forward:
"Two hours ago, Gunfire Dragon had 112 honor points. He has a power gun and is quite efficient at killing. He should be one of the most competitive players in Huaining City. Then there is Uncontested World, with 97 honor points. He is also a strong contender. After that are players like God Ash, with only 60 or 70 points. Needless to say, you can surpass him with a little effort."

"So when we fight together, we'll frantically give kills to the boss?" Kou Mei asked.

"That does not work."

I shook my head: "We are not in a good position in the PvP situation in Ash Plains. Giving away kills could easily lead to trouble."

"Ding Han is right, using headshots as a method is indeed not a good one."

Ruolin said, "How about this? Ding Han, you go solo and be a lone wolf. The rest of us eight will team up, with Aji taking Ding Han's place. We'll use a three-on-three strategy to deal with the foreign players and try to get Ding Han to take down the Glory Barrier. The rest of us will each get a new piece of cyan equipment. What do you think?"

"can!"

I immediately nodded: "Then let's go. Ruolin, you'll be the captain. I'm going to play solo. You guys focus on the fight and don't worry about me."

OKK!

……

After hanging up the call, I started eating like a dog, quickly finishing the rice in the lunchbox.

"Where are you going?" Lu Xiaobei asked.

"I have something to take care of and need to go out for a bit." I gave her a look.

Lu Xiaobei returned a knowing look: "Good luck!"

So, after sending a message to Lin Qingying to let her know, he rode his motorcycle out, speeding through the city so fast that it was just a blur.

"drop!"

A message from a player, Gun Like a Dragon: "You're here?"

"coming!"

"Hahahaha~~~"

With a hearty laugh, Qiang Churulong said, "Now I truly understand the meaning of the saying 'A generous reward will surely bring forth brave men.' For you, Ding Han, to mobilize, you must be richly rewarded!"

I was a little embarrassed: "There's no way I can refuse, the Power Shield has already spawned, how can I not come?"

"Ahem... To be honest, the guide really went all out to win this battle on the Ash Plains. You know, to collect all these rewards from the Honor Shop, he used up almost all the world contribution points he had accumulated since the first day he entered Star Abyss. In his words, he was going all in this time, and he had to compete with those GMs from the Star Maple Federation and the Dark Tide Faction!"

As he spoke, Spear Strike Like a Dragon said, "As far as I know, that shield alone consumed 77% of the Guide's world contribution, that's too ruthless! So, I also want to compete for this shield. We're brothers, but at times like this, we need to compete fairly. I have a certain first-mover advantage, so you'd better watch out!"

"How many honor points do you have now? Can you tell me?" I asked with a smile.

"Hehe, no way!"

"Nima..."

"Hahahaha~~~"

After the call ended, there was another "beep," this time a quiet, peaceful silence.

"Ding Han, are you going to the Ash Plains too?"

"On the way."

"OK!"

Yu Shi Wu Zheng said, "I currently have 112 honor points. I'm ranked first in Huaining City for 'Gunfire Like a Dragon,' and I currently have 133 honor points. If you work harder, you can definitely surpass me. However, as a friend, I will definitely not hold back and will do my best to compete for this Power Shield, although the chances are slim."

"Yes, fair competition. In the end, the loser should congratulate the winner and accept it wholeheartedly!"

"OK, that's what I think too, let's both do our best!"

"come on!"

……

Soon after arriving at the player black market, he rushed to the front of the phase teleportation array, pulled out a wad of banknotes, and offered them: "Ash Plains, thank you for your help!"

After quickly adjusting the teleportation array, the administrator said, "Ding Han, you paid too much. Here's your change."

"I'm in a hurry, no need to look, just take this and drink!"

I laughed and rushed straight into the teleportation array.

"Shh!"

Its body appeared in a pitch-black world, the northern map was blood red, which was the map of the Ash Plains.

"Ding Han, you're here too?"

Not far away, Xu Tian walked over and laughed, "I knew it. The attraction of the S7-level power shield is too great. A top expert like you would definitely come. Even if it's not for anything else, it must be for the treasure!"

"That's right, I won't say any more, I'm off!"

"OK!"

Xu Tian said, "If you're going to play solo, it's best to cross the north-south center line of the Ash Plains. The further north you go, the more foreign players there are!"

"learn!"

He took out his off-road motorcycle and quickly sped into the darkness of the north.

I turned on the headlights and sped off, reaching a speed of about 100 kilometers per hour.

……

Ash Plains is a scorched plain covered with ancient volcanoes, with cooled lava flows and volcanic rock pillars everywhere. Some of the lava flows still retain their deep red color and emit scorching heat.

Hehehe~~~

Not far away, several mutated alien creatures, tainted by radiation, crawled on the scorching ground. They were all fire-elemental creatures, unafraid of the high temperatures, and had made this place their home.

I have no interest in these wild exotic species; they are not my target for this trip.

And so I rode the motorcycle northward, speeding for dozens of kilometers!

Soon after, a woman's voice suddenly came from the star map, a voice that was sweet and charming, with a captivating quality:
"Are there any Chinese server players nearby? Requesting backup! Requesting backup!"

The speaker was actually an acquaintance, player "Shi Yaoyao Ya", the leader of the Tea House Alliance, and one of my friends!

"Yao Yao?!"

I was slightly taken aback, and immediately sent her a party request: "I'm nearby, invite me!"

The next second, Yao Yao joined the team, and the orange dot she represented appeared due north, about 2 kilometers away. What a coincidence, the distance was so close!

"Ding Han, come quickly to save me!"

Yao Yao exclaimed in surprise, her health bar instantly dropping from 80% to 47%, while I could see with my own eyes the flashes of gunfire flying through the darkness ahead!

Yao Yao is on the run, while the other side is chasing her!

"You run south, and I'll take care of the rest!"

When we were several hundred meters apart, I put away my off-road motorcycle and charged forward into the night with my gray power sword in hand. The moment I saw Yao Yao's figure, I quickly activated my bio-optical stealth skill!
"Shua~~~"

His body completely disappeared into the night, the power sword in his hand humming!

Meanwhile, Yao Yao was hit by several more precise headshots, followed by two RPGs exploding around her, sending the leader of the Tea House Alliance flying. Her health bar was reduced to a dangerously low 11%!

"Ding Han, watch out!"

Yao Yao hurriedly used a medical kit, scrambling and rolling towards the ditch ahead while clutching her submachine gun. She provided information: "These people seem to be Japanese players. They're speaking gibberish that I can't understand. There are about 15 of them. Be careful."

"Don't worry, just focus on recovering and don't hang up!"

The next moment, I activated my burst skill, Chasing Clouds and Lightning, which instantly increased my movement speed by a large margin. I drew my sword and charged towards the enemy's group. Under the glow of the RPG firelight, I could see that they were indeed a group of Japanese server players. Many of them were obviously otaku, and they all looked fierce and menacing, as if they wanted to riddle Yao Yao with bullets!
The initial surprise attack is crucial for inflicting heavy casualties!

My gaze darkened, and in the instant I passed by the three sword-wielding super-powered opponents, my sword flashed repeatedly, all of them using a combination of basic attacks and minor offensive skills, instantly cutting the three of them out of the Resurrection Scripture.

"Pong!"

Under the burst charge, three more people were stunned in a straight line. The damage was too high. The 150% damage from the burst charge alone was enough to leave these three with low health. So, a grenade was thrown and exploded between the three, instantly reaping the rewards!
At the same time, the power sword flashed with light, instantly unleashing three consecutive skill combinations that knocked down three opposing players!
Only then did the remaining players on the other side react as if they had seen a ghost. One of them shouted "Ding Han" in Japanese. I didn't stop at all and continued to move forward. The word "MISS" for psionic control skills kept appearing above my head. The fire turned into a blazing light and instantly killed four more people!

Seeing that they couldn't win, the remaining six men turned and ran!
"Still trying to escape!?"

I smiled faintly, switched my main weapon to the pink bomb gun, and stood still to fire. The dense bullets cut through the air and instantly blew up four heads. The remaining two hadn't escaped far when I pulled out the Conqueror and blew up their heads in four seconds!
Honor Points: 16!

comfortable.

In less than a minute, this hasty encounter earned me 16 honor points. At this rate, it seems like getting 500 honor points won't be so difficult.

It's a bit of a pity, though. The opposing players all had the Resurrection Codex, and everyone was very coordinated. Once they were killed, they would teleport away immediately without any recklessness. Therefore, apart from honor points, not a single thing was dropped.

"Ding Han".

Behind her, Yao Yao came out, covered in dust and dirt. She had been running for her life in a panic, and her once pretty and fair face was now black and grime.

"Yaoyao, even with your painted face, you still have a charming look!"

"At this point, who cares about appearances?"

Yao Yao said, both amused and exasperated, "But thanks to you, otherwise I would definitely have had to hand over this Resurrection Scripture as well."

"What's the situation on your end? You're not the only one, are you?"

"Originally there were three of us, plus Lazy and Xiaorou, but unfortunately we ran into Japanese players head-on. Although we took down quite a few, Lazy and Xiaorou also died. I almost became the third one. Luckily you arrived in time."

"Hurry up and head back. Forgive me for being blunt, but your combat skills aren't up to par for being a lone wolf."

"You..."

Yao Yao laughed and said, "You speak so bluntly, you definitely don't have a girlfriend!"

"Sorry, I already have a girlfriend. Xingyuan is the most beautiful!"

"Is that right..."

She smiled, then pointed north and said seriously, "Jokes aside, the map in that direction is called Jiao Mu Lin. There are still quite a few Japanese players lying in ambush there, about twenty or thirty of them. They are stronger in combat. They should have already received the news, so you need to be careful."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. You hurry back and don't hang up."

"Ok!"

Yao Yao took out a motorcycle and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

I concealed myself in the darkness and advanced northward along a gray ravine, intending to confirm the enemy's location first.

……

Jiaomu Forest, a small map in the Ash Plains.

When I crouched down and peered out from the ravine, aiming with the pink Wind Whisperer's night vision goggles, I saw dozens of players crouching in an uneven area about 400 meters away. I turned off my night vision goggles and took a look; they seemed to be using an infrared system to aim at their surroundings as well, appearing very cautious.

Sure enough, the group of Japanese players lying in ambush in the scorched forest already knew of my presence, but they couldn't pinpoint my location. They also seemed to know that I possessed the stealth ability, so they placed their bets on infrared aiming.

Unfortunately, what they don't know is that my bio-optical cloaking has undergone a complete transformation, becoming completely optically invisible, even in infrared light!

He quickly submerged himself in the still-warm lava ravine, then drew his power sword and kept approaching. When he was about 100 meters away from his opponent, he activated his bio-optical cloaking and charged forward with his power sword!

You can hear footsteps, but you definitely can't see the other person!

Just a few seconds later, I saw a group of Japanese players crouching together. I could hear footsteps but couldn't see them, so they could only fire their guns hastily!

And in the very next second, I activated the Starry Sky Bracers' burst skill—Star Vine!
“Swish, brush, brush~~~”

Strands of star vines rose from the ground of the scorched forest, and the huge 40×40 yard control range directly imprisoned nearly 30 players on the spot. The next second, a series of battle cries, burst charge and power sword storms were unleashed!
"boom!"

The moment the storm erupted, several players were caught off guard and instantly killed, while the rest were unable to move or escape. They could only be relentlessly bombarded by the power sword, their health bars dropping rapidly!
"Invincible!"

Someone on the other side shouted "Invincible!" Perhaps "Invincible" is also called "Invincible" in Japanese.

Indeed, Xiao Rizi is a descendant of Chinese people, sharing the same cultural lineage!
Inside the ambush point, a group of Japanese players who were not entangled by the star vines activated their invincibility, and golden light burst forth rapidly.

When they tried to fight back, I activated my invincibility, which immediately enraged them, causing them to roar incessantly.

Under the storm of power swords, more than ten people were quickly killed. The rest were all players who had activated invincibility. I didn't intend to avoid it at all. I activated Annihilation Rock Armor and Stardust Wall, rushed into the crowd and started hacking wildly. Two swords to kill, clean and neat!

"Wow!"

A level 55 sword-wielding super weapon roared, unleashing a leaping slash + rising dragon slash. The moment it landed in mid-air, the light of the prelude to the rising dragon slash appeared on the single-molecule sword wound!
The movements are fluid, but not fluid enough!

"Crack!"

The flames rose, directly suppressing the opponent and instantly splitting their monomolecular sword in two. Just as the opponent launched a rising dragon slash with the broken sword, I anticipated it and directly unleashed a whirlwind slash behind him. With a swirl of the blade, I instantly killed him!

The others opened fire from all directions, bullets whizzing by, many of them resulting in headshots.

But at this point, my armor was too high, with over 4980 points. I could stand there and let them headshot me without it hurting. Although my health bar was dropping rapidly, as long as I kept dealing melee critical hits and life stealing, I could keep my health bar above 50%.

As a result, one of the opposing team's leading hammer-wielding super weapon players started yelling, and surprisingly, nine of the players who had been forced to use their resurrection scrolls chose to revive on the spot!
These scumbags want to "die in glory" with me!
Whatever, let them break their things, I won't!

With unstoppable momentum, relying on powerful armor, he slashed wildly through the crowd. With 787 points of mental energy, he completely ignored the control of the opposing psionicists, while the super warriors' Rising Dragon Slash, Explosive Charge, and other attacks were subconsciously missed by him using positioning and stepping attacks.

At this moment, even if I have a significant equipment advantage, I will try to minimize the damage I take with skillful maneuvering. After all, no one can keep their equipment ahead forever!

……

Two minutes later.

I stood amidst the chaos of battle, carrying the torch. The fight was finally over, and I had brutally killed the nine resurrected players once again, each of them consuming two Resurrection Scriptures.

Clearly, this group was much more elite than the previous one, because at the moment the battle ended, my health bar was down to only 22%, and I almost lost a resurrection scroll to them.

"call……"

When I checked my honor points again, they were already 47 points. I had achieved a brilliant record of 31 kills in the second battle!
Turn around and leave the battlefield, quickly using a first aid kit to restore full health.

Five minutes later, just as I continued forward, a sudden whooshing sound arose, and a gray afterimage flew by!

Someone is attacking!

In the blink of an eye, he slashed with extreme speed!
"Pong!"

With the displacement effect of the Step Slash, it left its original trajectory and missed the attack of the Burst Charge. But in the next second, a blood-red light emanated from the ring under the opponent's wrist armor and shot towards it!
[Battle Notification: You have been hit by player [Daigo Umehara]'s Burst Attack [Crimson Assault], losing 5378 HP and being stunned for 1.5 seconds!]

Not good!

In a quick glance, I saw that the other party was a young Japanese player with the ID "Umehara Daigo", level 57, with a sword-type super weapon, and his smooth and skillful operation showed that he was a master!
"die!"

The opponent suddenly closed in and unleashed a combo of basic attack + Rising Dragon Slash + basic attack + Ash Sweep + basic attack + Chilling Star!
He actually possessed a chilling, bone-deep coldness!
The next second, my body was frozen in place, and the damage numbers above my head started jumping around!
Oh no, I was too careless after all!

Two seconds later, Daigo Umehara unleashed a barrage of attacks, while I was left with only 19% health, still far from being killed.

With 4980+ armor, he's still too tanky for melee players wielding monomolecular swords.

In an instant, Daigo Umehara's eyes were filled with despair and shock. He knew that what was about to happen might not be easy.
