Gravity Necklace
"Not good!"
The next second, I felt a sudden weightlessness, and in an instant, I was lifted into the air along with my gun, before crashing heavily into a rusty harvester in the corner!
Beneath the combine harvester's sickle, a pile of white bones lay scattered in the grass.
This isn't a harvester; it's clearly an execution platform!
"Blow!"
His body flew out and crashed hard into the harvester's sickle. Just as he was rolling, he glanced at the skill bar and saw that all the skill icons were lit up, meaning that he could still use the skills!
Leaping Chop!
The 3 points of Essence Points transformed into a pushing force, forcibly reversing the trend of crashing into the "execution platform". It drew an arc in the air, and the Power Sword in his hand was raised, slashing heavily at the body of the Gravity Aberration!
"45724!"
The Leaping Chop has a 300% damage multiplier, meaning my normal attack deals about 15,000 damage, which is actually not bad. It's just that this tumor is too big, making it difficult to deal fatal damage.
"Sizzle~~~"
Immediately after taking a sword strike, the short tentacles around the Gravity Aberration Void flared wildly, seemingly in pain. Suddenly, the surrounding space seemed to be sealed off, and then grass and dust rose up. Within a hundred meters, all the players' bodies were controlled and slowly lifted up, about to face the BOSS's judgment!
Gravitational storms, terrifying indeed!
"Damn it, what do we do? Think of something quick!"
Cai Cai held the Explosive Gun, twisting wildly in the air, her body out of control, making it impossible for her to aim.
"Don't panic, use all your skills, try to interrupt it!"
As I spoke, I raised my hand and punched half a brick. Instantly, I flipped over to bring the BOSS into my field of vision, locked onto its position, and activated my Explosive Charge skill!
"Boom!"
The body blurred into a streak as it passed through the BOSS's body, but the BOSS's resistance was too high, and the stun effect missed.
Again!
With a determined heart, I unleashed Battle Roar, Tian Gong Kai Wu, and Overpowering Momentum all at once, instantly closing in with Step Slash, followed by a combo of basic attack, Consecutive Slashes, basic attack, Rising Dragon Slash, and basic attack!
Unfortunately, the knockback effect of the Rising Dragon Slash also missed!
Just then, Kou Mei and Fey Courtier activated their Stardust Tendril almost simultaneously, while I also activated my Energy Blade Throw!
With a "crack," the electric current from the Energy Blade was directly absorbed by the opponent's steel shell, causing only a brief 0.1-second stun, which was far from enough to launch a follow-up attack.
But Kou Mei's Stardust Tendril proved effective; strands of starlight condensed into roots, directly binding the BOSS's body firmly in place!
"Pretty!"
I quickly rushed over and followed up with a combo of basic attack + Ash Sweep + basic attack + Bloodthirsty Assault + basic attack. Instantly, the BOSS's health bar started to drop rapidly!
At this moment, the gravitational storm was interrupted, Ruolin, Cai Cai, Fatty, and the others fell from the sky and regained their freedom.
Outside the old warehouse wall, with a loud "thump," Aji, Gene Warrior, entered Combat Form, his body growing by half again, and he crashed into the wall, his hammer slamming down, angrily smashing the BOSS's face!
"Full power!"
As I swung my sword wildly, I said in a deep voice, "Remember one thing: although the BOSS can activate a gravity field, it doesn't have a silence effect. You can use all your skills. Don't be afraid, fight!"
Before he finished speaking, a pile of bricks behind him suddenly flew into the air and crashed down like a meteor.
"Boss, watch out!" Telling a Story shouted urgently.
The next second, hundreds of bricks were reduced to dust with a "bang, bang, bang" sound in the disintegration field of the Glory Barrier!
Although the impact was powerful, I was fully capable of withstanding it with my strength.
"Damn, that scared me to death..."
Cai Cai and Fatty finally came to their senses, picked up their Explosive Gun, switched to Armor-piercing Round, and started firing at the big tumor!
The Gravity Aberration sizzled loudly, and the gravity field around us began to become disordered, frequently tossing us all into the air and hurling random bricks at us.
But once the mechanisms of gravitational fields and gravitational storms are understood, there are basically no major problems.
I kept a firm grip on the BOSS's position, unleashing a Power Sword of attacks that dealt the most damage. This enraged the Gravity Aberration, which frequently activated its Gravity Field and Gravity Storm, but these attacks were not fatal thanks to the Glory Barrier.
The strength of this Tier 6 Aberration lies in its ability to control groups, but it lacks strong offensive capabilities. Trying to kill people with surrounding bricks, debris, or other objects, or simply throw players to their deaths, is completely unrealistic!
Time slipped by little by little, and five minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
When the Gravity Aberration's health bar reached 50%, it flew into a rage once more. Strands of white light rose around its body, seemingly upgrading the strength of its force field. Immediately afterward, a cacophony of sounds came from behind it.
"Holy crap..."
Cai Cai and Bingzi turned around and saw the rusty harvester "take off"!
Amidst the deafening noise, the harvester was continuously disintegrated by the gravitational field. Rusty sickles, massive wheels, and various other parts were thrown into the air, their target none other than me, the one who was most ferocious in close combat.
"Ding Han, watch out, it's for you!"
Ruolin quickly reminded her.
"Sizzle~~~"
As if mocking, the Gravity Aberration let out a loud shout, and various disintegrated parts of the harvester flew down, with a dozen rusty sickles flying at the forefront.
If you get slashed like that, even a tetanus shot might not be enough.
"Holy crap!"
Without a second thought, I sank into the ground and used my shield to cover my entire body. Immediately, loud clanging sounds echoed from the shield of the Glory Barrier, sparks flew everywhere, and the powerful impact made me move backward along the ground. My health bar dropped rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it was below 50%!
Harvesters also consume a lot of energy.
The small shield of the Glory Barrier was like a black hole, its disintegrating force field constantly "digesting" the harvester's parts. In just five seconds, the entire harvester crashed onto the shield and was completely disintegrated, with only some rust and dust falling to the ground with the wind, as if the entire harvester had been eaten up by the Glory Barrier.
"Awesome..."
He was stunned Telling a Story, and muttered something under his breath.
"Continue!"
With a Step Slash forward, he continued to wield his Power Sword, coordinating with Ruolin's attacks. The two Power Sword slashed wildly at the large tumor, like a dull knife cutting meat, and sooner or later they would cut this big guy to death!
Five minutes passed in the blink of an eye...
The Gravity Aberration tried everything it could, almost completely demolishing the old warehouse, but ultimately couldn't survive and was killed by Xin Huo's Rising Dragon Slash, which sent it flying into the sky!
[Congratulations! You have defeated the Gravity Aberration (Pink BOSS) and obtained the item: 1 BOSS Ability Crystal!]
[Battle Notification: You have defeated the Gravity Aberration (Pink BOSS), gaining 10,400,000 character experience points. You also gained 5,020,000 Experience Points through extraction at the Essence Furnace!]
They have a wealth of experience, and also a very valuable treasure chest.
Open the treasure chest first!
As soon as I confirmed the activation, the pink treasure chest I had just obtained cracked, and then with a "pop," a strange necklace with a dark luster appeared!
[Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the item: [Gravity Necklace] (Quality: Pink)!]
They've released a pink necklace!
He hurriedly opened his Dimensional Storage Space and saw a necklace enveloped in pink light lying on a neatly stacked pile of Star Coins. Upon closer inspection, its attributes appeared—
[Gravity Necklace] (Quality: Pink)
Rank: Fifth Tier
Strength: +60
Agility: +58
Spirit: +56
Blessing: Critical Hit Chance +10%
Blessing: Lifesteal +10%
Specialty: Attack damage +17%
Blessing: Mighty Strength - II, increases attack power by 600 points.
Burst Skill: [Deadly Gravity Field], converts personal energy into gravity, summoning a 100x100 yard area gravity field. Enemy targets within the field have their attack speed and movement speed reduced to 20% for 7 seconds. Consumes 50 Essence Points. Cooldown: 2 hours.
Biography: The Gravity Necklace, a necklace crafted using the core of Gravity Aberration as its power source, contains extremely powerful energy.
Strength required: 1200
Required Agility: 570
Looking at the properties of the Gravity Necklace, I took a deep breath.
Actually, the attributes aren't that amazing; it's just that critical hit, life steal, and damage increase are maxed out. As for the Blessing of Strength, it's just a mere Mighty Strength-II that adds 600 points of attack power.
The Maya Necklace I'm currently wearing comes with Divine Power-III, which adds a full 900 points to my base attack power!
As for the included Burst Skill, Deadly Gravity Field is a control skill. Its cost-effectiveness is actually similar to that of the Maya Lightning Array. This necklace only adds 2% critical hit rate and life steal, as well as 3% damage increase. It is not significantly superior to the Maya Necklace.
However, it's Pink Equipment, and that's enough!
Necklaces have the lowest Drop Rate of any equipment, bar none. Currently, many players who can't collect a full set of blue equipment are often missing necklaces.
Similarly, without this pink necklace, it would probably be very difficult for me to collect a full set of pink clothes in the future.
No doubt about it, we changed it!
At this point, with 28% critical hit chance, 38% lifesteal, and 136% increased damage, it has gone further and further down the path to invincibility.
In his hand, the Maya Necklace shimmered with a unique blue lightning light, flashing continuously.
I was a little embarrassed and said, "I've discarded the Maya Necklace. It's an incredibly powerful necklace, but it seems like all of you physics majors can use it. What should we do?"
"How about we hold an auction?" Ruolin suggested.
She knows I'm short of money right now. The renovation of the Feiyang Chain Esports Hotel cost a whopping 12 million yuan, which was borrowed from Lin Qingying, so I'm definitely short of funds.
"That's a good suggestion."
Looking at the attributes of the Maya Necklace, Cai Cai smiled and said, "I'm determined to get this necklace!"
Telling a Story: "Actually, I could also compete."
Count me in.
Aji stared at the Maya Necklace with fascination. "I will do everything in my power to get this necklace!"
"Then let's auction it off."
I'm happy to make a little more money. "Starting bid is 200,000, each bid must be at least 10,000 higher. Everyone, take it easy, don't get angry, we're all on the same side."
40W.
Ruolin immediately doubled the price.
"Wow!"
The fat man was startled at first, then quoted a price. "450,000."
"50W." Cai Cai have increased in price.
Ruolin said, "600,000."
Aji countered with a swift and decisive shout, "80W!"
This kid is really rich!
"Aji, what are you doing..."
Cai Cai said speechlessly, "900,000!"
At this point, the fat man had given up, shaking his head to indicate that he couldn't afford to offend these big shots.
Ruolin bit her red lips; she really wanted the necklace. She said, "1 million. Aji you raise the price further, the necklace is yours."
"Ha ha..."
Aji immediately asked for a higher price.
"Aji, do you have enough strength points (1000)?" I suddenly reminded him.
"Holy crap..."
Aji was instantly dumbfounded. "I have 975 strength points, which should be enough to make up for it, but agility... damn it, it requires 500 points, I really don't have that much agility..."
Gene Warrior are a class that allocates points to Strength and Stamina, focusing on being tough and durable, similar to Garen. It's normal not to have 500 points of Agility.
In the end, Ruolin won the necklace for 1 million.
After she gave me a bunch of money, the balance in my storage space finally exceeded 10 million, and the day to repay the money was getting closer and closer!
"Drop!"
Suddenly, a message came from Gun Like a Dragon: "Ding Han, have you finished clearing Area E?"
"Just got it sorted out, how about it?"
"Come to Section C!"
With Gun Like a Dragon, "Quickly! There's a hidden insect hive here! Damn it, there are two Pink Claw Bug inside. We've suffered heavy losses, scattered, and lost five resurrection books. Come and reinforce us immediately!"
"They're here!"
I couldn't help but secretly complain. They all had cyan Power Gun, yet so many of them were scattered by two Claw Bug. Wasn't that a bit embarrassing?
"Let's go, we have a new mission!"
Leaving the old warehouse, I immediately took out my motorcycle and said, "Let's go to Area C. There's a hidden insect nest there, with two Claw Bug waiting for us to take care of them!"
Wow, this is so exciting?!
Everyone smiled, then got into the car and sped off towards Zone C.
Soon after, several figures appeared in sight; it was Gun Like a Dragon, Worldly Uncontested, leading a group of elite players.
"What's going on?"
As I put away my motorcycle, I took out my Power Sword.
"The game was rather complicated."
The Worldly Uncontested chuckled, "Two Claw Bug, along with a dozen orange- Blade Bug, were chasing after us players. We didn't want to waste the Resurrection Sacred Canon, so we scattered and fled. Now, those two Claw Bug have returned to their hive."
"The main problem is that the Claw Bug's attack power is too high; our defensive super weapon can't withstand the damage."
Gun Like a Dragon: "Ding Han, you have the Glory Barrier, you go."
My lips twitched slightly. "Fine~~~!"
So, he led a group of players from the Crimson Firmament Alliance and the Old Day Royal Court back to the insect hive. The moment they stepped into the hive, they saw that the dark space was actually shimmering with various colors of light. This insect hive was actually built in a crystal mine!
"A crystal vein?" I asked in surprise.
"That's right, that's why the Guide insisted on choosing this location to build the King of Glory City."
"The crystals in this mine... are very pure," Gun Like a Dragon.
He speaks in a cloying, almost saccharine way, and I think I could detect a certain "smoothness" in his voice.
Worldly Uncontested said, "But the Zerg swarm seems to be interested in the crystal veins as well. Recently, the Insectoid Uprising, and they actually built a medium-sized Zerg hive here before us, within just a few days of our exploration and return."
"Stop talking, the Claw Bug are coming!"
Looking at the shadowy figures ahead, I said, "Get out of the hive and fight in the open!"
"Good!"
Everyone left the insect hive and formed a circle. Soon, two pink-named insects rushed out of the hive. They were the two Claw Bug. Their health bars were already full. They were immediately hit by an Explosive Gun fire from me!
"Hiss~~~"
The Claw Bug hissed in pain and pounced without hesitation.
"Our team will take one, and you can have the other one!"
OK!
The next second, he was wielding his Power Sword and locked in a fierce battle with the Claw Bug.
This is the third time I've encountered the Claw Bug. The first time was in the beetle's nest at the bottom of East Lake, and the second time was in the beetle's lair in the Chagan Desert, so I have a wealth of experience in dealing with it.
You could say that I can tell whether a Claw Bug is runny or thick just by looking at its rear end.
"Sizzle~~"
Amidst the flying sparks, the Claw Bug's claws continuously pierced the Glory Barrier, but in the end, it was only itself that was harmed. As its indestructible claws swept through the disintegration field, the claw spikes were continuously annihilated, and green sap flowed out.
The price I have to pay is simply to deplete some of the durability of my Glory Barrier.
Durability is the least of my concerns, because I can repair the Power Shield myself!
The Power Sword danced wildly, constantly slashing wounds at the Claw Bug, inflicting Crippling Blow damage with each strike. Our attack speed was quite fast; in less than a minute, the Claw Bug's health bar was almost empty.
Immediately after the Claw Bug let out a mournful cry, it was successfully defeated, and a pink treasure chest was obtained.
Moving on, opening treasure chests is the most enjoyable part.
[Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the item: [Steel Obsession] (SS-rank Skill Tome)!]
When I saw the double S logo, my heart skipped a beat.
NX, this Claw Bug can actually drop SS-rank skill books?!
Either I had a stroke of good luck, or my 56 points of Charm Value finally paid off!
After taking a quick look, this skill does seem quite interesting.
[Steel Obsession] (SS-rank Skill Tome): Transforms pain into fighting spirit. The more health you lose, the higher your armor increases (100% - current health percentage). Required level: 60. Required class: Gene Warrior.
Now I know why this thing is rated as an SS-rank skill.
The more health you lose, the higher your armor becomes. That is, if your current health is 50%, your armor will increase by 50%, and if your current health is 1%, your armor will increase by 99%!
This is outrageous!
If a Gene Warrior were to equip themselves with top-tier heavy armor and wield an exceptional shield, and keep their health between 30% and 50%, wouldn't their armor be invincible?!
If you're in this state, you could probably easily take down pink bosses and even the upcoming Gold BOSS!
This skill is almost invincible, its only drawback is that it only increases armor, not Psionic Resistance, so you're still squishy against Psionic System!
Furthermore, this thing is also no match for Power Weapon; even with 30% health remaining, it can still one-shot you.
In short, this Steel Obsession is strong, but not comprehensive.
"Aji."
I looked at the only Gene Warrior in the team and asked, "Do you need this book?"
Upon seeing the skill book's description, Aji was first stunned, then overjoyed. "Yes, yes, yes! Boss, how much do you want? I'll buy it no matter the price!"
"Internal price, 300,000."
"No, I'll give you 800,000!"
Aji said, "Currently, the market price for a Tier 6 skill book is 1 million, and there's no market for it. What's more, this is an SS-rank Tier 6 skill book. Seriously, it has to be 800,000, or I'll disown you as my brother!"
"Fuck you!"
I stared at him, dumbfounded, and finally said, "You're awesome..."
Transaction successful! My savings have surpassed 10 million!
Afterwards, they remained within the designated territory of the King of Glory City to continue helping to Clear Bug Nest, and then withstood two waves of attacks from the nearby alien swarms. At this point, the cleanup mission in the King of Glory City should be nearly complete.
As evening approached, a roaring sound came from the sky as transport helicopters appeared, unloading batches of cargo.
A group of craftsmen first built a high platform, and then assembled a Phase Teleportation Array on the platform, which was about 4 meters long and wide. This is the smallest Teleportation Array I have ever seen.
"This Teleportation Array..."
I crossed my arms and examined the Teleportation Array.
"The power is a bit low, but it works."
The Guide complained, "Although the charge per minute is only enough to teleport one player, it's still enough to teleport directly from Huaining City to here. It's better than nothing, right?"
Gun Like a Dragon said, "That's understandable. After all, we're doing this on our own and haven't received any support from the player headquarters."
"Headquarters is also stretched thin; unless it's a large-scale mission, it's impossible to add any more high-powered Phase Teleportation Array."
The Guide seemed a little wistful. "There's nothing we can do; we only have so many resources."
Intrigued, I leaned closer and asked, "Brother Huan, what's the player headquarters like? Have you ever been there?"
"No."
The Guide lowered his voice and said, "Those of us who possess GM Key rarely meet in person. We communicate with each other through a separate system. As for the player headquarters... it feels even more mysterious to me, like a council hidden in the Star Abyss Twilight. Each of us GMs is just a member of the council, and only a member of the lower house. We know nothing about who's in the upper house or who the speaker is."
"Damn, so mysterious?"
"Um."
The Guide whispered with utmost caution, "Ding Han, don't inquire about these things. For them, this is a taboo subject. Even if you're the top player, if you violate certain rules, it will still cause you considerable trouble."
I nodded.
"By the way, have you found out who your summoner is?"
"No, not a single clue. I've always been a freelancer."
"I see..."
The Guide smiled and said, "Alright, this is a private matter between you and him, so I won't interfere."
He then refrained from making any further comments at this point.
There's only one possibility that could make the outspoken and passionate young man Zhou Jihuan act this way.
That means that my every word and action is under the control of that summoner, and the summoner can even see through my thoughts.
If it weren't for that, the task wouldn't have come just when I had the idea.
So, who exactly is my summoner, and what is he waiting for?
I've already developed to this point, am I still not valuable enough to him?
The truth, in the end, became an entangled mystery, lingering in my mind.
Putting everything else aside, one thing is certain.
My summoner GM must be a person with a twisted sense of humor.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have issued the missions to persuade Lu Xiaobei to give up his dreams and betray Lin Qingying to cooperate with Luo Mei.
He observed my every word and action as if I were a superior being, even posing tasks to test my humanity.
He might even see clearly what I'm thinking right now.
I'm not going to think about it anymore. I'll just take it one step at a time.
The construction of the King of Glory City is proceeding smoothly. The chief planner is the Guide, the foreman is the one who Gun Like a Dragon, and I am the number one enforcer. After the alien species and the insect nest were cleared out, I returned to Huaining City to continue writing code, striving to help Lin Qingying list Yue Ning Mall as soon as possible.
A few days later, in the afternoon, at Feiyang Internet Cafe.
"Drop!"
A message came from Lu Xiaobei, featuring a photo of her petting the head of a small mongrel in an ancient town.
"Ding Han, I met someone who looks a lot like you. I know it's not you, but I wish it were."
"Lu Xiaobei, you've really lost your morals!"
She sent me a voice message filled with laughter, clearly enjoying teasing me.
"Is the music video finished filming?"
"It's over."
She said, "I'm currently in an ancient city in the southwest, showing my agent around and taking a break."
"Then have fun and rest well. After the album becomes a big hit, you'll probably have even more things to worry about. The company will arrange all sorts of endorsements, fan meetings, and even concerts for you."
"Ah?"
She sent a painful mask emoji. "Then what's the point of me living?"
"Your thinking is wrong. Living in this world is not just about enjoying life. There is something just as important as enjoying life, and that is creating value. After all, the various resources needed for life do not appear out of thin air. Enjoying life also requires labor. This is called equivalent exchange."
"Well..."
Lu Xiaobei said, "Ding Han, I think the only good thing about us not being together is that I don't have to carry around a daddy-like boyfriend. Just think about it, how painful that would be!"
"You son of a bitch, Lu Xiaobei!"
"Hahaha, I'm not saying anything more, I'm going back to having fun. I'll take some good pictures to show you."
I sent you an emoji saying I was sending you away to a place a thousand miles away, and then continued writing code.
In the evening, Lin Qingying sent a message: "I'm off work on time, come pick me up?"
"They're here!"
After shutting down the computer and leaving, Zhao Yihang and Chen Xiaoman were already downstairs. The e-sports hotel had a manager, so they weren't needed unless the hotel was particularly busy.
"Going on another date with Manager Lin?" Zhao Yihang asked.
"Um."
I nodded. "Watch the shop carefully, don't slack off."
His face seemed to instantly don a mask of pain.
Yue Ning Group.
After picking up Lin Qingying, who was unusually on time to leave work today, we headed straight to our favorite Shudao Mountain Hot Pot Restaurant, as usual.
We ordered a table full of dishes and began to enjoy them.
"Ding Han."
Lin Qingying said, "Fang Tuo told me that the algorithm is progressing smoothly. Even though the algorithm is not perfect yet, the Yue Ning Mall should be online within a month."
"Yue Ning Mall is only one part."
I asked, "Have you contacted all your partners? Also, since you're using your own delivery model, have you arranged the offline outlets, delivery personnel, and so on?"
"Yes, I'm personally in charge of this."
She smiled and said, "This is also something I'm good at. We've already signed many contracts, which basically guarantees that once Yue Ning Mall goes live, we can deliver to the entire Jiangning Province and even Donghai City."
"We still need to work harder; ideally, we could offer nationwide delivery to ensure our revenue."
"In the other provinces and cities, dedicated personnel have already started paving the roads. There shouldn't be any problems in a month. This time, Yuening has made a huge investment; it can only succeed, it cannot fail!"
"Don't worry, it will definitely succeed!" I made a fist gesture.
She clenched her fist and smiled, "Okay, let's eat!"
After finishing our meal, we walked through the alley to the movie theater.
"Hey, Manager Lin?"
Suddenly, a voice came from behind.
It's Huang Minyu, the former general manager of the Huaining Luomei Flagship Store, who now serves as the director at Yuening.
"General Manager Huang, what a coincidence!"
Lin Qingying smiled and nodded politely.
"Yes!"
Huang Minyu looked at me. "Ding Han, it's been a long time. How have you been?"
"It's all right, thank you for your concern General Manager Huang."
"Haha, you should!"
Huang Minyu tilted her head and looked ahead. "Are we going to see a movie?"
"Um."
"Go ahead, go ahead, there's a new police thriller that just came out, it's really good, ruthless criminals are chasing and beating up the police, it's so fierce."
Huang Minyu nodded goodbye to Lin Qingying. He hadn't walked far when he saw a girl come out of the jewelry store and take his arm.
"You rascal, why did you run off while you were looking at it?"
So Huang Minyu ran even faster, afraid that Lin Qingying and I would hear something.
"Old Huang is a really honest guy," I said.
"Um."
Lin Qingying did not express any opinion, only saying, "Yuening has no right to interfere in the private lives of its executives."
"Who cares? It's not important. Watching the movie is the most important thing. Want some milk tea?"
"Um!"
After the date, it was already past ten o'clock when I got home.
While Lin Qingying a shower, Zhang Ruolin's voice echoed in my mind, "Ding Han, the King of Glory City is under attack by foreign players. I heard it's quite fierce. Why don't we go take a look?"
"Sure!"
I had just finished speaking when I received the message "Gun Like a Dragon," with the same content: the location and resources of King of Glory City are too good, and foreign players have already set their sights on it and started to make a move.
So, after sending Lin Qingying a message telling her to go to bed early, I went straight downstairs and rode my motorcycle straight to the Player Black Market.
Before the phase teleportation ended, Ruolin and I stood side by side.
"Wait a moment, there are still 40 seconds before the teleportation. Ding Han, you and Ruolin, will you wait in line?"
"Um."
I nodded and asked the Teleportation Array administrator, "Is there a fee?"
"Our own nodes, no fees!"
It's free, which is great.
Half a minute later, I was the first to teleport there, stepping out into the King of Glory City.
Although it was late at night, the base was brightly lit and had changed drastically from a few days ago. A 20-meter-high steel wall had been built, and buildings had been erected inside. At this moment, many players were firing from shooting positions on the wall towards the outside world.
"What's going on?"
Once I reached the city wall, I glanced at Xu Tian not far away.
"They are people from the Moon Soil."
Xu Tian frowned and said, "The Holy Grail Dragoons are such a damn annoying guild. They harass us even when we're just setting up a base in the wilderness. Damn it, a bunch of jerks!"
"There don't seem to be many people..."
I took out the Wind Whisperer, activated its night vision function, aimed at the foreign player appearing in the distant forest, and fired three shots in quick succession. The player's brains exploded, and he quickly respawned and left.
"That must be at least 2000 meters, right?"
Xu Tian also looked at the distant scene through the scope and said, "With such a strong night wind, you were still able to fire three consecutive Headshot and kill someone. Your marksmanship is truly incredible."
"Mainly because it feels good to the touch."
I locked onto the next target and fired several more shots, eventually forcing the enemy to keep their heads down.
Just then, a light suddenly appeared in the distant forest, followed by a barrage of cannonballs trailing bright light as they landed directly in the King of Glory City!
"Boom boom boom~~~"
Sparks flew everywhere, and some facilities within the city were damaged.
At this moment, Zhang Ruolin also walked onto the city wall, frowning and asking, "What's going on? Is that heavy artillery?"
"That's right."
The Chaos Demon King said, "These bastards have even gotten their hands on the artillery vehicles, are we just going to passively wait for them to bombard us?"
"How so?"
Gun Like a Dragon strode over. "Ding Han, shall we organize a commando team, go out of the city, and take out their cannons?"
"Okay, let's get out of the city right away!"
So, they quickly selected more than 30 elite soldiers, all of whom jumped down from the city wall and disappeared into the night, swiftly making their way towards the enemy's location through the woods and grasslands.
Soon after, we arrived at a wooded area.
Just after our group emerged, a hail of bullets came from the forest, forming a chain of bullets flying through the night sky.
"Holy crap, Gatling!?"
Xu Tian frowned and said, "These people from the Star Maple Federation have really upgraded their weaponry; their equipment is getting more and more sophisticated."
I took a peek with the Wind Whisperer and it was indeed a Gatling, carried by a pickup truck, and operated by a level 58 Firepower Specialist who was firing wildly with a ferocious expression.
"Let me do it."
I took out the Bee Sting Missile Launcher from my storage space, quickly changed positions, aimed and fired the moment it popped up, then quickly reloaded and fired another shot. A total of three Stingers exploded in the night sky, blowing the pickup truck and Gatling gun away!
"Rush!"
The Gun Like a Dragon, charging straight ahead.
Ruolin and I also rushed out.
From afar came the roar of a foreign server player, "Shadow Chaser is in there too! Aim at Shadow Chaser, focus fire and take him down, quick!"
Suddenly, I was surrounded by a barrage of gunfire!
"Buzz!"
They retrieved the Glory Barrier, activated the Defense Field, and used it to cover Ruolin, Xu Tian, and the others as they rapidly charged forward and broke through!
In an instant, countless bullets ricocheted off the shield, causing no damage whatsoever.
"Ding Han, watch out! Shoulder-fired missile!"
Not far away, Gun Like a Dragon, loudly reminding everyone.
The next second, a missile exploded on the Glory Barrier!
"Boom!"
The powerful impact forced me back several steps, but I only lost 500+ health points, while my opponent lost 100,000 Star Coins!
As expected, the Power Shield is just too useful!
"Superior!"
The moment I entered the opponent's 60-yard range, I immediately Leaping Chop and Explosive Charge at them, then swept my Power Sword across, cleaving a level 58 shield-wielding super weapon user and shield in two!
"They're coming! Run!"
The opposing commander shouted and yelled, but it was too late!
Pointing the sword forward, unleashing Burst Skill —Fatal, Deadly Gravity Field!
