The iron fist hit the chitin shell. The skull of the Shadow Stalker Viper cracked, and its HP dropped to zero. It let out a painful scream and died on the ground. The air in its lungs was squeezed out from its mouth and nose, and its body that had swelled up due to anger started to relax.
Jade Green Sky took a deep breath and looked at the damage output ranking. He was number one again. The attack power of the Heavy Mechanical Arm was hard for players of the current level to surpass.
Furthermore, the Heavy Mechanical Arm had high defense and could be used as a tank to tank monsters. There were a few times when the team was almost wiped out, but Jade Green Sky saved them all. When other players were wiped out, they did not die even once. Therefore, their contribution points increased steadily, and they were ranked number one.
This weapon was worth it!
Although Black Phantom's items were expensive, they really got what they paid for. Jade Green Sky was very happy.
"How could you call out the name of the move? How embarrassing, president. How old are you?" the vice captain complained.
"I like to call it, none of your business." Jade Green Sky was speechless. "Why are you playing the Pugilist class if you don't call out the name of the move?"
The carcasses of the Shadow Stalker Vipers and the eggs were both contribution points. The team members started to clean up the battlefield.
Woo!
Suddenly, the sound of wind whistling came from afar. Something was approaching quickly!
A black shadow flashed past the crowd and created a strong wind. It almost made all the people in Sky Territory fall. It was so fast that their retina could not catch it. No one saw what it was.
"What was that?"
"It was gone in a flash!"
Jade Green Sky looked in the direction where the black shadow disappeared and said in surprise, "That seems to be deep in the nest!"
Everyone was surprised and looked at each other.
"Let's go and see."
The nest was full of slime that reduced speed. After chasing for a while, the black shadow was long gone. The Sky Territory players were a little discouraged.
"Stop chasing, we can't catch up."
"Wait … what was that?" Someone noticed something strange.
The flashlight shone over, and a pungent smell rushed into their nostrils. The carcasses of the Shadow Stalker Vipers filled the tunnel and went deep into the darkness. It was a shocking scene.
The carapace that the players had to put in a lot of effort to penetrate was now like an eggshell that was easily crushed. The corpses were all fresh, which meant that in the short time that they had been chasing, the black shadow had taken care of all the beasts blocking his way. The Level 40 beasts did not hinder him at all.
Everyone immediately thought of Han Xiao.
"It was Black Phantom who just passed by, right?"
"The monster that we've been fighting for so long was easily killed by him. He's definitely a max level character."
The information that players received when they investigated Han Xiao was always [Extremely Lethal], and the rest was always a question mark. There had always been people guessing his strength level, and now that they had a personal comparison, they immediately had a more concrete understanding. He was definitely one of the Blue Star's top fighters.
Jade Green Sky was suddenly delighted.
"He cleared a path for us to follow."
…
Han Xiao, dressed in a black battle suit, quickly shuttled through the nest, following the route indicated by the tactical display screen.
Swoosh!
Two Shadow Stalker Vipers jumped out from the darkness, but the mechanical suit's radar had already detected their life signals and heat. Han Xiao did not dodge and instantly activated Power Mode. The biochemical muscles under the armor bulged, and a strong force went through his fists toward the Shadow Stalker Vipers. A head-on clash!
Bang! Crushing strength!
The carapace exploded, and sticky liquid splashed everywhere. Screams sounded beside his ears.
The struggling claws landed on the mechanical suit, but only a spark was created on the exterior armor. Han Xiao did not stop. He brushed past the two beasts, threw a few punches in an instant, and killed the two beasts on the spot. With his LV 55 personal attributes and the superior performance of Viper, plus the level suppression, he could easily kill these Shadow Stalker Vipers.
He did not stop at all.
He wiped the sticky liquid off the wall and saw that the radioactive crystals were getting denser.
"We're almost at the core area. The monsters are appearing more frequently." He casually pinned a Shadow Stalker Viper to the wall and killed it. Han Xiao checked the map on the display screen and confirmed that the route was correct.
The screen showed that the temperature outside was rising. The crystals had their own heat, and the hotter the place, the better the habitat of the Beast King.
The high temperature of the crystals made the infrared night vision goggles red, and he could not see clearly. Han Xiao adjusted his vision to normal. His vision instantly darkened, but after a few seconds, it became clear again. [Night Stalker]'s talent [Bat Habit] provided him with night vision, and his combat power was increased when he fought in the dark.
After passing through a cave, the space suddenly opened up. The thick smell of blood hit his face, and the sticky liquid under his feet was extremely thick. This was an underground cave that looked like a beehive. Large pieces of dark blue radioactive crystals were embedded in the walls, and there were more than a dozen cave entrances that led in all directions. This was the center of the nest.
Countless red eyes flashed in the darkness. Dozens of Shadow Stalker Vipers were lying on the ground, showing off to the uninvited guest. There were also a few more ferocious-looking Elite monsters mixed in with the beasts.
The most eye-catching one was the Shadow Stalker Viper Beast King that was surrounded by the beasts. Its body was three times bigger, and it looked down at Han Xiao from above. The sticky liquid in its mouth dripped onto the ground, creating a pungent smell and a corrosive sound.
"It's so big, so it must be the Beast King."
The swarm of Shadow Stalker Vipers charged toward him. Han Xiao crossed his feet, and his skateboard shoes ignored the sticky terrain. He quickly moved and dodged the Shadow Stalker Vipers. He took out the Ghost sniper rifle on his back and used it as a rifle. The barrel of the rifle flashed with electric light, and the magnetic needles left behind a trail of blue light.
He kept changing his attack target so that he could continuously trigger [Lethal Shot]. There was a one in eight to one in four chance of triggering True Damage, and it would not take effect on the same target for five minutes. This talent was more useful in group battles. The correct way to use it was to keep changing the attack target to maximize the damage output.
Blood exploded, and the needles easily penetrated the shells of the beasts, killing them quickly. An elite monster stealthily circled behind him and launched a sneak attack. As if he had eyes on the back of his head, Han Xiao turned around and launched a powerful kick, flattening the skull of this Shadow Stalker Viper.
The monster horde continued to charge forward like a tidal wave, but Han Xiao was like a reef, unmoving no matter how strong the wind blew. With him as the center, the monsters fell one after another, and the horde became thinner.
The Shadow Stalker Viper Beast King raised its head and roared. Its voice was ear-piercing, and the sound wave reverberated in the nest, summoning its kin.
The players in other places were shocked to find that the Shadow Stalker Vipers fighting with them stopped at the same time and ran toward the depths of the nest without looking back.
The tunnel was rustling, and the ground was shaking. A large number of beasts were coming, and it would be harder to deal with them if this dragged on. Han Xiao focused and activated [Overload], [Flaming Will], and [Fatal Critical Hit] at the same time, aiming at the Beast King that was wandering around the edge of the battlefield.
Buzz — The Gauss sniper rifle fired with a buzzing sound of electric current.
A ray of blue light flashed and pierced through the Beast King's shell, exploding a hole in its body.
This shot even triggered [Lethal Shot]'s True Damage!
-2853! A shocking damage popped up, and the Beast King's HP dropped by a lot. It was in so much pain that it roared and rolled around. Han Xiao looked at the Beast King's attributes on the interface.
Level 53, Boss template, high Agility and Endurance … but only 9,000 HP? Han Xiao was shocked. The shot just now took away almost one-third of the Beast King's HP. This amount of HP did not match the template of a Boss.
Could it be an agility-type Beast King that was more aggressive? But its huge size did not look like it.
The Beast King rolled around, but unexpectedly, it did not pounce on Han Xiao immediately. Instead, it ran to the corner of the cave and opened its mouth, chewing something hard. Han Xiao looked through the gap between the beasts, and he was shocked when he saw what was happening. The Beast King was eating buckets of high-energy waste marked with radiation.
Beasts that ate waste for a long time had a high chance of mutating or gaining special abilities. He noticed that the Beast King's HP was recovering at a terrifying rate. It recovered 1,000 HP in just two to three breaths. Obviously, eating waste would allow it to recover HP quickly.
Han Xiao finally understood that this Beast King was the type that dragged people to their deaths. This home ground was very unfavorable for him. He took a deep breath, and the air passed through his lungs to increase the oxygen content of his blood, adjusting his condition to the best. Then, he jumped high into the air, crossing the beasts in an arc, and smashed into the back of the Shadow Stalker Viper Beast King with great momentum. The two of them rolled into a ball.
Without waiting for him to stand up, Han Xiao bent his knuckles, popped out his fingernails, and stabbed them into the Beast King's shell. At the same time, he activated the Thermal Incisor Gauntlet to melt through the shell.
Suddenly, the sound of wind approached, and the Beast King's tail whipped him from behind, almost sending him flying. He could feel the huge force through the mechanical suit, and its durability dropped a little.
Han Xiao focused and shouted. The Bonfire Reaction Furnace on his back shone brightly, and he pushed the Beast King into the wall with both arms and legs at the same time.
With a boom, it was as if the earth was shaking!
Stones fell like rain!
The man and the beast crashed into the wall and fell into the tunnel on the side. The Beast King roared and wanted to return to the nest to recover HP, but Han Xiao grabbed it tightly and dragged it out. He poured energy into the Compounded Magnetic Chain Split Blades on the back of his hand. The blades floated and rotated at high speed, cutting open the Beast King's shell, revealing the dark purple flesh inside.
The battle was like two beasts of the same size colliding. The sound was terrifying, and the walls collapsed one after another. The entire nest began to shake and was about to collapse.
The players were shocked and hurriedly ran away.
"Run, we're going to be buried alive!"
"This is demolition!"
Jade Green Sky followed the crowd and ran a few steps. Suddenly, he realized something. "No, we can revive. Now is the chance to kill monsters and gain contribution points!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the wall on the side exploded. Han Xiao pushed the Beast King over. Jade Green Sky was in the way and was instantly flattened.
"Ah, guild leader, you died so tragically!" The deputy leader of the first team held his head with a face full of fear.
