Power Sword, Lend It to Me for a Couple of Days

"Holy crap, this mech..."

Cai Cai's eyes widened as well. "This looks even more awesome than Dark Tide's Revenant-class..."

I nodded, completely agreeing.

In Star Abyss, Power Armor exceeding ten meters in length is called mecha, such as Dark Tide's Revenant-class. The 20-meter-long power armor in front of us is even considered heavy-duty mecha. There's no way to make it any taller because the materials simply can't meet the requirements.

The difference between a mech and Power Armor is that although there is a mech pilot inside, the overall movement is far less coordinated than that of Power Armor, and it is much less agile. However, the mech has stronger armor and higher energy level. Once it enters the battlefield, it is like entering an empty field. If it cannot be destroyed quickly, it may tear through the defense line and directly affect the battlefield situation!

"The time for a counterattack has come!"

A figure appeared on their own position; it was Major Linley. He said in a deep voice, "Attack! Escort the Crimson Dragon-class Mecha and push the position forward. Let these audacious Dark Tide scum know the price of offending my Crimson Dragon Country!"

In an instant, all players in the vicinity received the quest!

[You have accepted the battlefield mission "Escort the Crimson Dragon-class Titan Mecha II" (Rank A)! Mission objectives: Escort the Crimson Dragon-class Titan Mecha forward, eliminating enemies attacking the mech along the way. The more targets you eliminate, the greater the final reward!]

It's done!

"Boom~~~"

The Crimson Dragon-class Mecha strode across our position in an instant.

"Holy crap..."

When Fatty and I looked up, we could clearly see the hip joints of the Titan Mecha, the weapon packs on its back, and its arms, modified into the shape of firearms, which were now burning red-hot. It fired several giant shells directly at the Dark Tide's position, and mushroom clouds rose up immediately. Its combat power was simply off the charts!

"Superior!"

I immediately stood up Explosive Gun in hand, and said, "Follow the Titan Mecha. Bingzi you don't have the Resurrection Sacred Canon, you stay at the back. Like I said, safety first!"

"Don't worry, boss, I understand!"

A group of people quickly flipped over and rushed out of the position, running wildly behind the mechs.

"Brothers, let's go!"

On the other side, a shout rang Gun Like a Dragon, and immediately the hundreds of players from the Crimson Firmament Alliance scattered and advanced together.

Furthermore, it wasn't just the players who followed suit; many Power Armor warriors from the Crimson Dragon Country also joined in. Although they were all Generation 2 Armor, their suppressive power against the Dark Tide was equally formidable.

They charged forward for hundreds of meters in one breath. Ahead, the Dark Tide Army roared, and countless Power Armor warriors and Vanguard soldiers, all Gene Warrior engineered, charged forward with weapons in their hands, their eyes filled with hatred, as if they had gone mad.

"Armored vehicles, move out quickly!"

A Dark Tide commander roared, pointing forward. "Stop this mech's advance, or the entire frontal defense will be torn apart, and the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Amidst the roar, heavy armored vehicles appeared, their cannons pointed directly at the Crimson Dragon-class Mecha in the distance.

"Bang bang bang--"

Amidst the artillery fire, the Crimson Dragon-class Mecha, less than 30 meters away from me, remained unmoved. Countless armor-piercing shells rained down, but they were all blocked by a seemingly thin shield, causing no damage whatsoever!

The next second, the mech suddenly raised its right arm, and with a "click-click" transformation, the entire right arm turned into a deep blue cannon barrel. The left arm was raised horizontally to assist the right arm in calibration. The next moment, the body swayed continuously and fired a series of cannonballs with a "bang bang bang" sound!

"Boom boom boom~~~"

One shell for one armored vehicle, not a single shell was wasted. In just an instant, all of the dozen or so heavy armored vehicles sent by Dark Tide were reduced to scrap metal!

"Holy crap..."

The fat man looked up at the Crimson Dragon-class Mecha beside him, his face ashen. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call this thing a war machine from Star Abyss.

"Rush!"

Behind him came Commander Linley's voice.

Instantly, the Crimson Dragon-class Mecha beside it emitted a buzzing sound, its body sinking slightly before it shot towards the enemy camp like an arrow, charging through countless bullets and artillery fire to cross the Dark Tide's position and unleash a Blue Shockwave upon the densely packed enemy ranks!

"Go! Go! Go!"

I was getting excited, so I rushed forward and opened fire on a group of stunned Dark Tide soldiers in the trench. The close-range firepower of the Explosive Gun was extremely powerful, and I almost wiped them out in droves!

"033, it's you again, you traitor!"

Unfortunately, we were recognized by some of the enemy's junior officers again. If nothing unexpected happens, my photo and Left Hand's photo are likely already plastered all over every combat command room in Dark Tide.

You've mistaken me for someone else!

With a shout, I switched from the Explosive Gun to the Wind Chaser Sword, instantly activating the Battle Roar skill. At the same time, I channeled my elemental energy, and the Power Sword glowed with a deep blue light. With one strike, I severed the opponent's head from his neck!

"10000!"

The opponent was a Ten Thousand Health Elite; under the decapitation effect, it would only take one sword strike.

"033, you bastard!"

A group of Vanguard Member simultaneously raised their weapons!

"Boom!"

Explosive Charge!

In an instant, he stunned many people, appeared behind them, and then his sword danced wildly. With the support of a max-level Sword Master, he had almost reached the realm of "Unity of Man and Sword". The Power Sword shone brightly and slashed wildly, and the damage numbers kept jumping up and down. It was quite exciting!

"8922!"

"19004!"

"9012!"

"9044!"

"8989!"

After the Battle Roar, the true attack power is too high, and it ignores any of the opponent's armor. Even if these Vanguard Member try to block with their Submachine Gun, it is useless. Each sword strike deals about eight or nine thousand damage, and often a critical hit will deal close to 20,000 damage. Meanwhile, the opponent's health bar is only between 6,000 and 8,000. Therefore, one sword strike kills them instantly!

This killing speed is much faster than aiming and shooting with Submachine Gun!

"Holy crap..."

At this moment, players from the Crimson Firmament Alliance, including Gun Like a Dragon and Xu Tian, also arrived. When they saw me wielding a Power Sword and slashing wildly among the Dark Tide crowd, their eyes widened in astonishment.

"Boss, is that Power Sword?" Xu Tian murmured.

"It seems so..."

The envy in his Gun Like a Dragon was undisguised. "That Ding Han guy, he really is..."

By this time, many players had already seen it.

The fact that someone possesses Power Sword is something that can't be kept secret; once someone sees it, the news will spread quickly.

The reason why Power Sword are so tempting is simply because they are so rare.

First of all, it is virtually impossible to obtain Power Sword from a so-called "NPC". People who can wield Power Sword are usually high-ranking officers in the military. Their weapons have self-destruct programs that activate once they are separated from their host body.

And if you want to extract it from the Ability Crystal in the Star Abyss, that would be even more difficult.

In the game's lore, only weapons of at least orange quality have a chance of being classified as "Power Weapon." However, not all orange melee weapons are Power Weapon. On the contrary, most orange weapons are Monomolecular Weapon or Chainsaw Sword, and the chance of Power Weapon appearing is extremely low!

Most melee players will never have the chance to own Power Sword in their lifetime, not even a low-level Power Sword; that's the harsh reality.

"Ding Han!"

The Chaos Demon King roared, "Can I borrow your Power Sword for a couple of days later?"

"Keep dreaming!" I replied coldly.

"You son of a bitch..."

The Chaos Demon King was utterly humiliated, while Xu Tian and the others burst into laughter, mocking him without restraint. "This rare Power Sword is like a wife to you. You think you can borrow it for a few days? Dream on!"

They're right, Power Sword are too expensive. I really wouldn't dare lend one out; what if they don't return it? That would be the end of the world.

"That's Position 15 ahead. It used to be our Crimson Dragon Country's territory. Take it back!" A commander from the Crimson Dragon Country's side roared from behind.

"Aww~~~"

The Titan Mecha roared and continued its charge forward, constantly pulling out ammunition from its weapon backpack and unleashing a barrage of fire at the Dark Tide position.

This mech truly caused the Dark Tide army a great deal of trouble.

Soon after, a group of figures appeared amidst the smoke and fire. The next moment, countless Heavy Explosive Gun focused their fire on the Crimson Dragon-class Mecha, using Thermobaric Round. The bullets continuously left fiery craters on the steel shell of the Crimson Dragon-class Mecha.

Unlike Power Armor, giant mechs cannot use Tungsten Steel as the main heat insulation material because although Tungsten Steel is heat-insulating, the overall material cannot withstand the weight and powerful impact of a giant mech!

Therefore, the Thermobaric Round can indeed be considered one of the nemesis of the Crimson Dragon-class Mecha.

"Superior!"

I drew my sword and charged forward with Cai Cai and the others, fearless. They were just a group of Blue BOSS; with our current strength, even if we were focused down, it wouldn't be fatal!

"Stop them!"

An officer from the Dark Tide faction roared, but it was no use stopping him!

The next second, I Explosive Charge and closed in. With a "crack," I severed the arm of a Generation 2 Armor Dark Tide Warrior who was holding Explosive Gun, dealing Crippling Blow 20,000 damage. Then, I plunged my sword into the opponent's heart!

"19274!"

"Ahhhh~~~"

Inside the hood, the bald Gene Warrior's face was contorted with rage. Instead of dying on the spot, he glared fiercely and swung his left fist at the enemy!

I almost forgot, the Gene Warrior on the Dark Tide side are basically two hearts and three lungs. Destroying one of their hearts isn't fatal, so beheading is the most straightforward solution, since they haven't been modified to the point of having three heads and six arms yet.

"Die!"

I suddenly twisted my wrist, the blade pointing upwards, and directly sliced Power Sword upwards from the opponent's heart, cutting through the hood and splitting the opponent's bald head in two like slicing a watermelon!

Kill accomplished!

"Quickly, follow Ding Han and the others, don't let them fight alone!"

From both sides came the voices of alliance leader-level players such Gun Like a Dragon" and "Worldly Uncontested ".

Xu Tian and his group quickly suppressed the attack, firing at the Dark Tide Generation 2 Armor warriors from all directions!

"Whoosh~~~"

In that instant, I suddenly had a premonition of impending danger. Amidst the smoke, an orange light seemed to flash briefly. The next moment, a figure with blue flames erupting from his jump backpack suddenly shot out, a Power Sword in his hand aimed straight at Xu Tian's head, poised to kill him with a single blow!

"Ah?!"

Xu Tian was shocked; the other party arrived too quickly, leaving him no time to react.

"Boom!"

At the critical moment, the sound of the burst of Explosive Charge suddenly rose. I stopped precisely in front of Xu Tian, Wind Chaser, and collided with the opponent's Power Sword. Sparks flew everywhere, and my body was hit as if by a heavy blow. I was directly knocked back by an irresistible force!
