Star Abyss Walker

Chapter 92 Thermobaric Bomb

"Clap!"

The impact of the landing on the rooftop of the bungalow was quite loud, but it was barely noticeable in the noisy battlefield. After passing through a few houses, the figures of Dark Tide elites wearing second-generation power armor stood in the firelight ahead. They were extremely arrogant and fearless of the players' firepower, unleashing a barrage of firepower at the player camp with their heavy weapons!

In this setting where firepower reigns supreme, players don't really have many options. They can only rely on the health of the front-line players to create space for output. However, the Dark Tide second-generation armor has extremely high defense, and the attacks of ordinary players are just tickling!
After passing through a dilapidated house, the distance between me and the enemy had been reduced to within 40 meters, which is the effective firing range of a bomb gun. However, if you want more concentrated firepower, it is best to shorten the attack range to 20-30 meters. Of course, if you can fire at their face, the damage will probably be the highest.

Just as Xu Tian said, we players have been in Xicheng for a long time and are quite familiar with the environment of this city, so we have a geographical advantage.

The area where the battle took place happened to be less than two miles from the ancient city and less than one mile from the canal that Lu Xiaobei often visited, so I was extremely familiar with the environment in this area!

"Shh!"

I charged out suddenly, closing the distance between us to within 30 meters. I immediately locked onto one of the elite Dark Tide soldiers in second-generation armor on the outermost edge. After pulling the trigger, I didn't let go and poured a burst of 40 armor-piercing bullets from the explosive gun onto the helmet on the man's forehead!
"1314!"

"477!!"

"1299!"

"501!!"

"1416!"

Amidst the intense damage, the headshot icon flashes incessantly. It must be said that the armor-piercing bomb gun is indeed the nemesis of power armor; hitting a helmet can even trigger headshot damage!

The magazine was emptied in just a few seconds, and the level 30 blue BOSS's health bar was almost instantly reduced by 80% or more, which is quite exaggerated and outrageous!

"Bang bang bang~~~"

In the distance, the sniper among the players used the inertial impact of the large-caliber bullet to instantly deplete the blue BOSS's last bit of health!

[Congratulations! You have defeated [Dark Tide Elite - Jim Green] (Blue BOSS) and obtained the item: [BOSS Ability Crystal] x1!]

[Battle Notification: You have defeated [Dark Tide Elite - Jim Green] (Blue BOSS), gaining 320000 character experience points. The Elemental Furnace extracted 160000 experience points!]

……

"Damn it, kill him!"

The other four second-generation armored warriors turned around in unison, and three of them quickly opened fire with their heavy weapons. Instantly, scorching bullets whistled through the air, their momentum terrifying!
I launched the Step Slash almost without hesitation!
"Pong!"

During the step-slash movement, his body instantly shifted five meters to the side, appearing behind a house. Immediately afterward, the house was riddled with holes, and even several walls could not stop the enemy's large-caliber bullets!

"Shh!"

A figure rushed in; it was a powered armor soldier wielding a monomolecular heavy sword.

"You bastard, come out and face your death!"

Behind the transparent helmet visor, his expression was ferocious, his eyes filled with resentment. He swept his heavy sword across, directly cutting through the load-bearing wall of the house. The entire house collapsed immediately afterward. A second later, he kicked aside the ruins and came back with his sword!

The real culprit!
My gaze remained calm. These precious few seconds were enough for me to switch magazines. After all, I had practiced switching magazines countless times since I got my hands on this Hellfire Bomb Gun, and I was more skilled than the oil seller.

"Bang bang bang~~~"

Large-caliber bullets exploded, turning into sparks that accurately splattered onto the opponent's helmet!

As a sword-wielding super weapon user who has maxed out all stats, one advantage is that their strength is high, resulting in an exceptional ability to control recoil. Even with the terrifying recoil of 25mm bullets like the Hellfire Bomb Gun, they can still steadily control the muzzle and deliver every bullet to the opponent's head!

After emptying a magazine, the opponent's health bar was down to about 10%. He coughed up blood as he charged in, raising his greatsword high and snarling, "I'm going to kill you!"

"Pong!"

The moment the opponent raised their greatsword, ready to reap the rewards, I unleashed a burst of energy, piercing through their body in a short distance. I then switched my main weapon to the Legion Blade and unleashed a barrage of attacks: Heavenly Craftsmanship + normal attack + Dragon Blade + normal attack + Bloodthirst + normal attack, landing on their already tattered helmet and dealing a series of critical hits!
"Hey!"

With a final strike, the sword pierced the opponent's mouth, its tip emerging from the back of his head, spraying red and white blood, instantly killing the genetically modified power armor warrior!

Just then, the voice of gunfire rang out in the team chat: "Fire support for Shadow Chaser! Don't let him take the attack alone! Shield-type superweapons, rush over and use Burst Charge to disrupt the enemy's attack rhythm! Don't be afraid to die, your health bars are thick enough, you won't die even if you take a few hits from the blue BOSS!"

Suddenly, the sound of wind breaking through the air could be heard continuously from not far away!
More than a dozen super warriors appeared in sight, charging in waves and leaving three second-generation armored Dark Tide warriors in place!

"Crack!"

I quickly reloaded the magazine, took a step and entered the perfect firing range, locked onto the head of a power armor warrior 24 meters away, and the next moment I decisively pulled the trigger, emptying the magazine!

The bursts of damage continued unabated. Headshots and critical hits kept flying up from the blue BOSS's head, which had only 70%+ health left. Its health bar was drained in the blink of an eye, just like a water pump. With a mournful cry, carrying a mechanical heaviness, it knelt on one knee, supported its body with its arm, and slowly collapsed.

"Fuck..."

In the team chat, someone said, "What's the deal with that gun that the Shadow Chaser is wielding? It's fucking powerful, awesome... Holy crap, one volley can take down most of the boss's health bar, that's incredible..."

"It's probably a bomb gun, right?"

Someone responded, "Bomb guns generally have a large caliber, so if they use armor-piercing bullets, the armor-piercing damage against low-level power armor will be very high! However, even so, the bomb gun in the hands of the Shadow Chaser must be of a high grade, otherwise it wouldn't have such terrifying firepower!"

"That's for sure..."

Someone complained, "I had a bomb gun, but guess what? It's white, and it couldn't even scratch the boss's health bar. After emptying the magazine, the boss's clothes were just slightly dirty..."

"Damn, bro, you're really unlucky. Being bad at the game is a cardinal sin, don't say it out loud..."

……

With everyone's support, my firing environment improved significantly. I quickly switched magazines and emptied two more in quick succession before the other two Dark Tide II armored warriors fell to the ground, becoming the first casualties of this urban warfare in Xicheng.

Outside the city, war chariots roared as vanguard units under the Grey Worm Chapter poured in.

I switched back to the Wind Whisperer, crouched atop a bungalow, and kept firing, relying on the Wind Whisperer's powerful firepower and range to inflict maximum damage from a safe distance.

At the same time, my gaze fell upon the interdimensional storage space, which contained a total of six blue BOSS-level power crystals, including those obtained from killing a third-tier demon spirit.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, I opened them one by one to see if I could get anything suitable, so as not to miss the chance to replenish supplies in the event of a battlefield supply run. Then, a series of ringing sounds filled my ears—

Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the following item: 4000 Star Coins!

Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the following item: 6000 Star Coins!

Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the item: [Modified SMC Submachine Gun] (Quality: Green)!

Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the following item: Explosive Grenade x2!

Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the following item: Explosive Grenade x1!

Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the following item: First Aid Kit x1!

……

A bit dumbfounded.

Despite having an absolute advantage in dealing damage to the BOSS, the loot obtained was not satisfactory.

The reward of 1 star coins? Oh well, money is a good thing, I won't fuss about it.

In addition, three explosive grenades were found, worth 9000, which is quite ordinary, plus a first aid kit, which is better than nothing.

The most valuable item should be the green SMC submachine gun, a Tier 2 one, which should be worth around 13,000 at the current price. I'll find a chance to sell it later to make some money.

"Their firepower is too strong, retreat one mile!"

In the team chat, a commanding voice, sharp as a dragon, rang out.

Everyone retreated.

I picked up the Wind Whisperer, looked at Ruolin, Cai Cai, and Kou Mei not far away, and said, "You three be careful, take care of yourselves. It doesn't matter whether you get points or not, you must stay alive!"

"Understood, Brother Han!"

Cai Cai nodded: "You be careful too!"

"Ok!"

I nodded emphatically and quickly found the next good shooting position. This time it was on a water tower near Qianjin Street. After lying down, I quickly aimed at the driver of the tank in the distance and shot him twice, headshot them both!

……

Soon after, a series of red-hot armored vehicles approached from the side, their cannons aimed at the Dark Tide army. After a barrage of fire, they themselves also suffered a huge impact. Many Dark Tide soldiers carrying RPG rockets were constantly attacking the armored vehicles!

"I'm going to pick up a quest, everyone wait here!"

Gunner was a bold and meticulous person. After quickly approaching, he had a brief conversation with a Xicheng officer, and then a ringtone echoed in the team channel!
[Your squad has triggered the battlefield mission "Cover the Armored Battalion of the Windbreaker Legion" (Rank A)! Mission objective: Cover the heavily damaged armored battalion as it safely leaves the battlefield. The more armored vehicles preserved, the greater the reward. Mission rewards: A large amount of experience points and a large amount of "Channel City Battle" points!]

Sure, that's a good battlefield mission!

……

"Ding Han!"

Gunshot Like a Dragon said in a deep voice, "Those Dark Tide soldiers carrying RPGs are the most damaging to the armored battalion. Can you aim at them? If so, it's yours. Don't let their rocket launchers fire!"

"learn!"

I quickly shifted my target to those carrying RPGs. As usual, at a distance of 1200 meters, my advanced shooting level 10 was still a perfect shot, two shots each, headshots all of them!

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen RPG launchers were killed, and the advance of the Dark Tide was halted!

On the player's side, the Xicheng Armored Battalion began to retreat steadily towards Qianjin Street, fighting as they went, with overall progress remaining very stable.

……

"Those bastards from Dark Tide..."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and someone started laughing in the team chat: "I thought they were so powerful, but they're nothing special!"

"Exactly! If we really go all out and fight back, they'll chicken out!"

"Hahahaha~~~"

Just as everyone was relaxing, a huge object suddenly roared across the sky, followed by the sound of air raids. When I looked up, I saw a spark rapidly grow larger and spread, descending from the sky and engulfing everything!

"Holy crap...it's a thermobaric weapon!"
