"Depend on..."

A chill ran through me. I hadn't expected to encounter such a sight so soon after arriving. They sent a whopping 11 Sonic Beast, all level 35 Blue BOSS!

Although this means there are 11 blue Ability Crystal, however...

Whether we can even devour these 11 Sonic Beast is a question in itself!

"Holy crap, what do we do?"

The fat man's hand holding the gun began to tremble.

"Fire all at once, then pick them off one by one!?" Cai Cai.

"No!"

I shook my head immediately. "If they swarm us, they'll likely unleash Sonic Boom all at once, and we'll be in deep trouble. Everyone listen to my command: each of you shoot two Sonic Beasts, then scatter and run. With your current stats, you won't die from two Sonic Boom. Hurry, move out of here!"

As I spoke, I immediately lowered my body and fired a series of rapid shots with my Explosive Gun, instantly attracting the attention of the three Sonic Beasts. Then I took off running!

"Roar!"

The three Sonic Beast chased after them, and Ruolin, Fatty, and the others followed suit, each attracting the aggro of two Sonic Beasts, and the five-person team quickly dispersed!

A few seconds later, after putting some distance between myself and the others, I suddenly turned around and aimed all the remaining bullets from my Explosive Gun at the head of the Sonic Beast in front of me, emptying the magazine instantly. The next second, I switched to Roarer and emptied the magazine in the same way. In just an instant, the Sonic Beast's health bar disappeared!

"Roar~~~"

The other two Sonic Beast roared, gripped the ground with all four claws, and surged with wind, already charging up their Sonic Boom attack!

"Die!"

I immediately switched my main weapon to the Ride the Wind Sword, and used the Explosive Charge to pierce through the body of one of the Sonic Beast. Then I turned around and unleashed a combo of Tian Gong Kai Wu and Overpowering Momentum. Instantly, exaggerated damage numbers soared into the air. The moment the combo was finished, I reduced its health bar to only about 20,000!

Switch to the Explosive Gun and instantly kill!

At the same time, the third Noivern Sonic Beast's Sonic Boom attack arrived!

"Boom~~~"

A terrifying Sonic Boom swept past, and in an instant, it felt as if one's body had been pierced and shattered by some kind of substance!

"4992!"

Good!

Without the Annihilation Rock Armor active, the Sonic Boom only dealt less than 5000 damage to me. This was all thanks to my 1100+ armor, which negated a huge amount of Sonic Boom damage!

At the same time, Sonic Boom also came from four other directions, and everyone triggered the Sonic Beast's ultimate attack!

Ruolin is a shield-type super weapon, thick-skinned and tough, I'm not worried.

Cai Cai is a high-level character with good equipment, and her stats are a mix of Strength, Agility, and Stamina, so her health bar is very high and there's nothing to worry about.

The fat guy just successfully completed his Third Transfer a few days ago, and his attributes are already quite good; he can withstand two Sonic Boom.

As for Kou Mei, although she's a bit squishy, her equipment is pretty good. In addition, she has a psionic shield skill, which is enough for her to survive two Sonic Boom.

As long as the Sonic Boom damage is spread out, our team has the absolute strength to withstand it!

"Bang bang bang~~~"

In the night sky, the flashes of bullets from the barrels continued. In just a few seconds, all 50 bullets from the Roarer were poured onto the head of the third Sonic Beast, killing it instantly.

I immediately rushed towards Kou Mei's side, only to see two Sonic Beast chasing after her in the jungle!

"Boss, save me!"

When Kou Mei saw me, her eyes were filled with surprise and delight.

The Explosive Gun fired, instantly finishing off the weakened Sonic Beast. Then, in a flash, he rushed forward, switching to the Wind Ride the Wind Sword Cold Star Piercing Bone that froze the second Sonic Beast in place. Together with Kou Mei, they shot it down!

"Walk!"

They charged towards the fat man, carrying Kou Mei with them.

This guy was actually standing still and firing, his Explosive Gun firing incessantly as he fired a barrage of shots into the mouth of a Sonic Beast. By the time we arrived, the Sonic Beast had already fallen, and another one was already charging at us!

"Imprisonment!"

Kou Mei's eyes flashed with silver light, her Mental Power surged, and she instantly summoned a Psionic Chain, locking the second Sonic Beast that Fatty was in charge of in place. I then took advantage of the situation and took it away with a burst of bullets!

Immediately afterwards, the three of them rushed towards Ruolin.

A Sonic Beast's corpse lay at Ruolin another was frantically gnawing at the purple shield in her hand. As usual, a burst of bullets killed it!

When the four of us arrived at Cai Cai's place, this guy was actually sitting on the corpses of the two Sonic Beasts, and he took out a cigarette, lit it on the red-hot barrel of his gun, took a puff, blew out a smoke ring, and looked at us nonchalantly. "Why did you take so long?"

"Holy crap..."

The fat man looked annoyed; he'd actually been fooled!

Let's go.

As I opened the box, I said in a deep voice, "There are just too many Sonic Beast here. Let's get going. The blood-red area to the southwest is less dense and should be relatively safer."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Cai Cai nodded repeatedly.

So the group headed southwest.

As for the blue Ability Crystal I obtained, they all yielded experience points. The only one worth a glance was a 0.2 cubic meter Dimensional Expansion Crystal, along with a Tier 3 green SMC. Although this thing is outdated at the moment, it should be able to sell for a few thousand Star Coins without any problem.

Ten minutes later, after passing through a woodland, an endless expanse of shrubs stretched out before us.

"Isn't it too quiet here?"

The fat man chuckled, "It seems like there isn't a single mutant among them..."

"Quiet is good, quiet is safe," Cai Cai said.

"It's not necessarily peaceful..."

I turned around abruptly and saw rustling sounds coming from the bushes to my side. Then, a dense swarm of dark shadows rushed out. They were all Devourers, and there were at least a thousand of them at a glance!

"Holy crap!"

Cai Cai exclaimed in surprise, "Who just said it was quiet here?!"

"Stop joking, let's go!"

I grabbed my Explosive Gun and led everyone in a hasty retreat.

Although the Devourer is a Tier 1 mutant and is considered "trash" by players at this stage, if there are enough of them, and each Devourer uses its "Devour" skill on you, even a god couldn't stop it. The Devourer isn't that powerful, but its Devour is incredibly satisfying, and that bite will cause you to lose a lot of health!

Behind them, thousands of Devourers roared incessantly, pursuing them at a rapid pace!

"Ding Han, look over there!"

Zhang Ruolin, carrying Submachine Gun, rushed forward and pointed into the distance.

Under the moonlight, I followed the direction she pointed and saw a signal tower there. It looked abandoned for many years, but it still stood there, appearing quite sturdy.

"Hurry, climb the signal tower!"

A group of people sped off and arrived at the signal tower in the blink of an eye. While Ruolin, Kou Mei, and Fatty climbed the tower, Cai Cai and I fired down from below, shooting down the oncoming devourers. Afterward, the two of us nimbly darted around several times and also reached the rusty signal tower.

"Roar roar roar~~~"

Below, nearly twenty meters away, countless Devourers roared and circled on the ground, trying to rush up. Unfortunately, the Devourers couldn't climb trees, so they could only wander around below.

"The monster is stuck..."

Cai Cai grinned. "Harvesting time, let's begin!"

So everyone opened fire downwards, and with a burst of bullets, the devourers fell like wheat being harvested—it felt great.

"Boss, look over there!"

Kou Mei pointed into the distance. "A BOSS has joined!"

"Um."

I nodded. It was a Splitter, a level 35 Purple BOSS, walking towards us surrounded by Devourers. In the darkness, it seemed that more and more alien species were coming, crowding below like a terrifying tide.

Just then, several figures with green IDs appeared in the distance—players!

Someone passed by.

Zhang Ruolin squinted and looked in your direction.

I looked over and saw that the group of players had the words "Jinyu" guild above their heads, and the one walking at the very front was none other than Shen Jin, the leader of the Ash Domain Guild!

After we parted ways in that Land of Cold Wind, he never bothered me again, which makes him a smart man.

Following behind Shen Jin were the main players of the Ash Domain Guild, including Jī Méng Kěkě He Pi Li 17 Shuo Qu Ba, numbering around 20 or more.

"Drop!"

Suddenly, the Jī Méng Kěkě sent a friend request. After accepting, she asked, "Ding Han, do you need our help?"

"No need, we can handle it, Xie Xie!"

"Okay, let's go then."

They didn't turn around, but brushed past us in the moonlight.

Stop staring at those big-breasted cute girls!

Cai Cai glared at the fat man and said, "The Splitters are here, get ready to fight!"

"Shoot it down in one volley!"

I spotted the Splitter and aimed directly at its head, firing Armor-piercing Round from my Explosive Gun. Fatty, Cai Cai, and the others quickly followed up with their own firepower, and the Splitter's health bar plummeted, instantly enraging it!

"Hiss~~~"

His head suddenly split into several mouth parts, and with a low whistle, his arms began to climb up the signal tower.

"Holy crap, he can climb towers?!" Cai Cai frowned.

"Don't panic, unleash your full power!"

Just after I ran out of bullets for the Roarer, I immediately used a Tian Gong Kai Wu on the Splitter's head, followed by a barrage of fire from the Explosive Gun. With this switching and everyone's output, the Splitter's 500,000 health bar couldn't withstand it. It had only climbed halfway before it turned into a pile of mangled flesh and fell downwards!

I've got a purple Ability Crystal chest! Let's open it!

[Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the item: [Splitter Battle Axe] (Quality: Blue)!]

A blue Axe, level 3.

Given the current market situation where Blue Equipment is constantly depreciating, it can probably be sold for around 40,000 Star Coins, which is actually not bad.

Soon after, the devourers below were completely cleared out, and we gained a large amount of Experience Points.

"Whoosh!"

He instantly leveled up to level 35, and a golden rain of light bathed his entire body.

Just then, a "beep" sounded, Jī Méng Kěkě sent a message: "Ding Han, we've encountered Spinal Butcher here, at Twilight Wasteland (24377, 72883)."

Immediately afterwards, Shen Jin voice came from within the star map. "Spinal Butcher has appeared, coordinates (24372, 72889), nearby players please come to the rescue immediately! Please come to the rescue immediately!"

"Holy crap..."

Cai Cai and I looked at each other in bewilderment.

I must say, the people from the Ash Domain Guild are really lucky; they've already encountered the Spinal Butcher so quickly!
