Fatal Shot

Chapter 587 - First Base



Chapter 587: First Base

“Manipulator team two, switch! Heavy Armor Warriors, take note and defend, don’t let those Commander Grade Hypertoxic Lizards get here! Machine Gunners, Machine Gunners, hurry! The right side…”

The sky had turned dark. Somewhere on the island, within a range of around one kilometer on the hamada, gravel covered the ground as a fierce battle ensued.

Multiple Chameleons that were over Level 60 gathered into groups before moving towards the players who were charging toward the center of the hamada. The Chameleons charged in a way similar to a suicide attack.

As for the players, the long range professions positioned themselves in the middle while the warriors stationed themselves outside.

The high speed shooting of Machine Gunners and the continuously released ultimate attacks of Manipulators created an impenetrable defensive line, and the amazing firepower kept most Chameleons at least a hundred meters away from them.

“Slash, slash…”

While a few Chameleons were lucky enough to get through the gaps of the defense line after losing most of their HP, they would be ultimately dealt with by the Light Armor Warriors or Scouts defending the area.

“Rumble…”

Apart from the Manipulators and the Machine Gunners, four Tiger A-50 robots, each over five meters tall, were also on the hamada. At that time, the four barrel heavy machine guns on the A-50s were spinning and firing shots that crushed the Hypertoxic Chameleons into pieces.

Although it was rare for normal players to see robots, for large guilds, they were standard for most activities.

However, the island environment was not exactly the most suitable combat setting for these combat robots. In addition, large robot parts could not be placed inside player inventories, delivering the parts via military ships or transport vessels was simply too much of a hassle.

As such, Nine-Star Guild only assembled four of these robots for this battle.

“Hiss, hiss…”

The number of Chameleons standing across the players in groups was decreasing very quickly. However, there was a lot of them left, and almost half of those remaining were Elite Grade monsters, and the players were still at a huge disadvantage.

The Chameleons’ Environment Blend skill was just too strong. However, the skill seemed to be a passive skill.

Thanks to a chance encounter when getting on the island, the specialists from Nine-Star Guild had long devised plans to deal with them.

The Fire Manipulators in the team kept casting fire type skills around them while they moved. Some were even doing so much that they had seemed to have given up maximizing their damage.

The moment the flames touched the ground, the Chameleons that should have blended in with the environment were forced to return to their true self.

The Chameleons were completely drowned by the sheer number of long-range attacks thrown at them. Even the Commander Grade Hypertoxic Chameleons that had over 50,000 HP failed to reach the players.

Their bodies were double the size of a normal Hypertoxic Chameleon. The moment the flames exposed their location, these larger sized Commander Grade Chameleons would be targeted and attacked by all those experienced top players.

In an empty hamada space, there were no obstacles in the way. While these lizards had high levels and HP, it was impossible for them to survive a round of focus fire attack.

[You’ve contributed to killing Hypertoxic Chameleon (Level 62: Elite) Contribution: 23.4%. Obtained Experience: 1029.]

[You’ve contributed to killing Hypertoxic Chameleon (Level 60: Commander) Contribution: …]

[You’ve killed…]

Multiple messages indicating Feng Luo’s experience gain popped up into his sight. His Level 53 experience bar was gradually increasing.

These experience points were meaningless to other players; however, for Feng Luo, they were valuable experience points that could help increase his levels.

As things unfolded, the Life Protozoa leveled up again and was now Level 34.

Additionally, when clearing maps and farming monsters, there was a building located close to the center of the hamada. A worn-out building that was completely constructed from metal was within 100 meters of the players.

“Everyone, be careful. A Quasi-Boss Grade monster may appear at any time. Everyone, scatter around, maintain a certain distance between one another in case the Quasi-Boss Grade monster uses an area of effect skill to attack! Scouts, find the position of the Quasi-Boss monster!” Frontline Command shouted instructions through a loudspeaker. However, in an environment where skills, shots, and explosions abound, the commands were not very clear.

However, while many did not hear the commands, the players still maintained a certain distance between one another.

While normal monsters were nothing to them, they had to respect a Quasi-Boss Grade monster.

In particular, the Hypertoxic Chameleons were high level monsters, and the Quasi-Boss monster of the same species was guaranteed a high level as well. Even though every player in the team was fully equipped with Rare Grade items, it was still possible for them to be wiped out in one attack.

The first Quasi-Boss level Chip was going to appear soon. No one wanted to die and be removed from the scene at this moment.

“Northwest, 60 degrees. Clear!”

“South side, clear!”

“East. Clear…”

All of the Scout players in the team activated their recon meters and kept using the Detection skill in different directions. At the same time, they continued to report their findings to Frontline Command in the center.

“Boom!”

Before one of the Scout players could finish speaking, near the building of the base in the hamada, the sand around a location suddenly burst into the air and a larger than normal Hypertoxic lizard appeared.

At the same time, a chilling and dangerous aura filled the area.

“Warning, warning… Discovered a high energy creature. Discovered a high energy creature.” A warning came from the personal terminal of each of the players.

“It has finally appeared!”

However, after hearing the warning sound, the players at the scene did not seem to be worried; on the contrary, they looked relieved and delighted.

The threat posed by a Quasi-Boss monster that appeared was much lower than a Quasi-Boss monster still hiding somewhere.

Since many players were already focused on the research facility building in the first place, they were able to discover the monster appearing from underground almost immediately.

“Attack!”

Without any hesitation, most long range attackers had started sending their attacks toward the monster.

“Boom!”

The sky was suddenly filled with fireballs, wind blades, bullets… They descended toward the monster like heavy rain.

Five large robots, as well as a few summoned pets, released their long range attacks at the large figure at the same time. The flame from the shots lit up the area and exposed the large body of the monster.

“-344, -444, -566…”

“-2345!”

“-3445!”

A bunch of damage numbers appeared and almost completely covered the large Hypertoxic Chameleon that had just appeared.

While it was a Quasi-Boss Grade monster that had around 300,000 to 400,000 HP, it should not be able to survive the round of focus fire attack.

In the next moment, the system notification had popped up.

[You’ve killed Hypertoxic Chameleon (Level 70: Commander Grade). Kill Contribution: Obtained Experience…]

“Huh? We’ve killed it already? Hold on a sec. It is not a Quasi-Boss Grade monster, it is only a Commander Grade monsters.

“No way! We targeted the wrong monster? If this is only the Commander Grade monster, then where is the Quasi-Boss Grade monster?”

“Careful!”

The moment the monster died, some players began to cheer. However, they reacted quickly to the situation almost instantly.

“Boom!”

While they reacted very quickly, over a dozen white light of death had already brightened an area in the middle of the team where the long range attackers were being protected while a bunch of damage numbers popped up at the same time.
