The Server's First Power Sword
"Buzz--"
With a series of loud bangs, the furnace in the Metal Devourer's chest began to operate rapidly, the temperature rising higher and higher until it reached an overload state. At this rate, it would probably explode very soon!
"Ding Han!"
Just then, amidst the chaos, the Initiator suddenly stood up and shouted urgently, "Stop it! If it explodes, we're both doomed!"
"Know!"
I agreed, but I didn't try to destroy the Metal Devourer's furnace. The furnace was overloaded and the temperature was extremely high. My Invincible Burst Skill was on cooldown, and if I got close, I would likely die instantly from the high temperature!
He suddenly turned around and kicked aside a large piece of sheet metal not far away, revealing the tunnel beneath it.
"The Initiator, hurry!"
I ducked and rushed into the tunnel, calling out to the one the Initiator.
"Oh... okay!"
The Initiator hurriedly followed, shrinking into the tunnel as well.
I frowned. In such a perilous situation, the Initiator didn't use any weapons, equipment, or skills from beginning to end. Could it be that these so-called GMs, while able to control players, are actually different from players and don't possess their functions?
So, this question mark was imprinted in my mind, and whether it is true or not still needs to be verified later.
Outside, the deafening roar was deafening. The Metal Devourer's furnace turned crimson red, and the next moment it exploded, turning into a surging stream of molten lava that shot into the sky like a volcanic eruption!
A few seconds later, a series of pleasant tinkling sounds rang in my ears!
[Congratulations! You have defeated Metal Devourer (Orange BOSS) and obtained the item: BOSS Ability Crystal x1!]
[Battle Notification: You have defeated Metal Devourer (Orange BOSS), gaining 1,320,000 character experience points. The Essence Furnace extracted 640,000 Experience Points!]
"Ding Han!"
In the Team Channel, Fatty's voice came through. "Are you alright?"
"Boss, how are you?" Kou Mei asked anxiously.
"I'm fine."
I calmly replied, "The Metal Devourer is dead. How are you all now?"
"We're in the back mountain, trying to shake off the alien creatures." Cai Cai said breathlessly, "Boss, do we need to go back and rescue you? You looked like you fell into the ground just now."
"I'm fine, you continue retreating, don't worry about me."
"All right..."
After that, I stopped talking and took out the shiny orange Ability Crystal from my Dimensional Storage Space. I was the one who dealt almost all the damage to this Metal Devourer, so this Ability Crystal was of high value. I wondered if it would give me some surprises!
The next second, it was turned on, and an exceptionally pleasant ringtone immediately filled my ears--
[Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the following items: [Wind Chaser - Thunder Fury] (Quality: Orange), [Rising Dragon Slash] (S-rank Skill Tome), [Phase Teleportation Core] (S-rank Special Item)!]
'Holy crap...'
Staring at that incredibly appealing blue notification text, I was dumbfounded. What incredible luck! Three items from a single Orange Treasure Chest!?
Moreover, they are three top-tier items at the current stage!
An orange sword, a level 40 Super Weapon Master's trump card skill, <Rising Dragon Slash>, and a Phase Teleportation Core that's like having an extra life!
My heart was pounding wildly; the word "ecstasy" simply couldn't describe my state of mind.
The next moment, his gaze fell upon the Dimensional Storage Space, where he saw a gray longsword lying in the corner...
Hmm? Something's not right!
How could an orange weapon be a grayish color?
'Hey, holy crap, could it be...?'
The next second my heart suddenly skipped a beat. In the Star Abyss World, an orange weapon that doesn't glow can only have one possibility: it's not glowing because it's not charged!
And weapons that require charging...
Could it be Power Sword!?
"Depend on!!!"
I couldn't help but shout out in my heart, then fixed my gaze on the sword. The next second, the sword's magnificent stats slowly appeared, officially coming into view.
[Wind Chaser - Thunderfury] (Quality: Orange)
Rank: Fourth Tier
Type: Star Radiance Grade Power Sword - Generation I
Base Parameters: Attack 1200-1800, Attack speed 1.3 attacks/second, Durability 5000/5000

Details: The Wind Chaser - Thunderfury, a First-Generation Power Sword Star Radiance Grade power sword crafted by a renowned artisan from the northern Crimson Dragon Country. Its first owner was a valiant Republic soldier who tragically perished in a battle against an alien race, resulting in the Power Sword's loss amidst the chaos of war.
'Holy shit... Holy shit...'
Looking at the sword's attributes, my heart was filled with mixed emotions. It really is Power Sword!
And it's highly likely to be the first Power Weapon dropped in <Star Abyss>. What incredible luck! How could I have gotten such a good thing? How incredibly fortunate!
A careful examination of the Power Sword's attributes reveals that, despite being only First-Generation Power Sword, its stats are still outrageously powerful, boasting an attack power of 1200-1800 points, which is truly off the charts. To put this in perspective, the attack power of a purple Tier 3 Ride the Wind Sword is only 420-500 points. Compared to the Wind Chaser, this exceptional purple weapon pales in comparison!
Without a doubt, the attack power of this Power Sword is absolutely off the charts. It is a top-tier Power Sword, and by a significant margin. According to my calculations, its attack power ceiling should be around 1200 points, but it has reached 1800 points, which is about 50% higher. This is already the ceiling for first-generation Power Sword!
'Damn it...'
Looking at the Power Sword's stats again, I still find it hard to believe.
With the Ride the Wind Sword in hand, my total attack power is only 1634-2120 points, but the Wind Chaser's Power Sword provides 1200-1800 points of attack power, which is simply outrageous!
Of course, the requirements for using this Power Sword are also incredibly high: 750 points of strength and 400 points of agility. Even with my stats, I'm just barely able to equip it. If it were any other player, this thing would only be something to admire and keep for a short time.
"Snap!"
Upon equipping it, a surge of power flowed through his right hand and into his body!
[System Prompt: Confirm that you want to charge your Power Sword "Wind Chaser: Thunderfury" with Yuan Power? Charging Cost: 1 Essence Points is consumed every 5 seconds of charging!]
It's alright. It only consumes 1 point of Essence Points every five seconds, which won't have a big impact on leveling up or PvP. After all, the current Essence Points is 150 points, and with the further improvement in the conversion efficiency of the Essence Furnace, there's basically no chance of running out of Yuan Power.
Confirm!
"Buzz~~~"
The next second, he channeled his inner energy into the Power Sword, and the Power Sword immediately emitted a low "humming" sound, its surface enveloped in a dazzling deep blue molecular annihilation force field!
'Holy crap... that's awesome...'
In that instant, I couldn't help but grin slyly. So cool! This is fucking awesome! My first dream in <Star Abyss> has come true!
Just then, a bell rang in my ear!
[Congratulations! You are the first player on the entire server to equip Power Weapon. Rewards: Achievement +3, Charm Value +1!]
Is there really such a good thing?
I narrowed my eyes, unable to hide the smile on my face. When I looked at my personal panel again, my attack power and Overall Combat Level had once again exceeded the limit!
[Shadow Chaser] (Starry Sky Super Weapon - Sword Specialization - Tier 4)
Level: 40
Attack: 2434-3430
Defense: 1340
Life: 42200
Critical Hit: 12%
Bloodsucking: 17%
Damage Increase by 10%

Yuanli: 150/150
Overall Combat Level: 6845
Potential Point Allocation: Strength 840 / Agility 471 / Spirit 195.2 / Stamina 251
Achievements: 30
Crimson Dragon Country Faction Reputation: Revered
Wow, this is truly Power Weapon! It directly boosted my Overall Combat Level from 4400+ to 6800+. This thing really does provide a huge boost to Super Weapon Master!
Absolutely incredible, unbeatable!
"Call..."
I took a deep breath, my face beaming. From the Ride the Wind Sword to the Wind Chaser, it was truly a huge upgrade! I couldn't wait to grab this Power Sword and charge into the crowds and monster hordes to hack and slash!
Ignoring any armor, this 3400+ attack power is deadly to anyone!
Moreover, with the Power Sword, I can easily handle bosses with high armor. Even if a boss is wearing Third-Generation Power Armor, as long as I can hit them, it will be quite fatal. Every sword strike can make them wish they were dead!
At this moment, finally having a moment to spare, I turned my attention to the fourth-tier skill book for my class:
[Rising Dragon Slash] (S-rank Skill Tome): Condenses a powerful upward force with Yuan Power, knocking the target back for 1.5 seconds and dealing 400% damage. Consumes 10 Essence Points. Cooldown: 30 seconds. Required level: 40. Required class: Super Weapon Master.
Rare!
Rising Dragon Slash is a common skill for Super Weapon Master, but it is an S-rank skill. For control skills, rank is actually quite important. For example, Explosive Charge, although it also has a stun effect, has a high miss rate due to its low rank.
As for Rising Dragon Slash, there's basically no need to consider this aspect. Like Cold Star Piercing Bone, it's an S-rank skill with extremely high control accuracy. As long as it hits, it can basically send the opponent flying!
"Whoosh!"
I learned it directly and instantly leveled it up to lv10, which increased the damage of Rising Dragon Slash from 200% at level 1 to 400% at the maximum level. I avoided many detours and also gained an extra 6 points of strength!
Then, he glanced at the Phase Teleportation Core. This thing had saved Shen Jin's life earlier; otherwise, that reckless guy would probably be dead in the Land of Cold Wind.
[Phase Teleportation Core] (S-rank Special Item): When used, it unleashes a powerful magnetic field, teleporting the player randomly to a target location on the local map via phase teleportation.
This is similar to a random scroll in the game "Legend". It's quite useful. If you're in a desperate situation due to being PK'd in the map, but don't want to leave the map and don't want to consume an expensive Resurrection Sacred Canon, this thing will come in handy.
In short, it's like having an extra life. While its value is far less than the Resurrection Sacred Canon, it's still a rare item at this stage, and its price will definitely remain high.
At that moment, I finally noticed the Initiator standing to the side.
His eyes were glowing green, and he looked at me with a strange smile.
"Ding Han, my young warrior, congratulations on successfully obtaining the first Power Weapon in the entire server! I hope you will remain humble and continue to strive for the honor of the human race and the dignity of the players!"
