Chapter 409: Demon-Subduing Giant Palm

POSTED ON JUNE 15, 2023 BY KEN

Basic Step is the first basic ability to reach LV7 among all your basic abilities.

As a reward, in this extra attribute draw, there will be a 50% probability of a unique reward that will only appear when it is upgraded to LV10.

Please choose one of the following options as an additional attribute of Basic Step LV7.

A. Your proficiency in Basic Step will increase your movement speed by 15%. The maximum will not exceed 20 points.

B. Your knowledge of Basic Step allows you to predict the enemy’s actions. Your hit rate increases by 3%.

C. [Sprint]/LV10 unique reward, your understanding of Basic Step enables you to burst out in an instant, increasing your running speed by 30% for 10 seconds. After the burst, your running speed will be reduced by 20% due to exhaustion.

The increase/decrease in running speed is based on your normal running speed. This ability can be activated every 3 minutes.

D. Your understanding of Basic Step makes it easier for you to guard against enemy attacks. Your evasion will increase by 4%.

E. {Combo} (Rare), when you cause melee damage to the enemy, the skillful Basic Step will allow you to capture the enemy’s flaws and trace the enemy, causing an additional instance of damage.

This damage will reproduce the damage you successfully dealt to the enemy last time, and it will be affected by special effects, crit rate, hit rate, etc.

F. {Absolute Dodge} (Rare)/LV10 unique reward, your level in Basic Step has reached the pinnacle (LV10). The Master level!

There was a saying that a tall building rises from the ground. Any high-end dodging skills need a solid foundation as support. With such a strong support of basic ability, all your evasion passive abilities will be prioritized!

Even if the enemy’s attack has a true hit and other judgment effects, it will be nullified when your evasion is triggered.

(For example, someone fired a shot 3cm above Fang Linyan’s head, which is supposed to miss 100%.”

(But if the gun has a true hit special effect, then under normal circumstances, the special effect will automatically correct it into a direct headshot, and the absolute dodge will offset the effect of the automatic correction.)

Among these options, Fang Linyan was originally interested in C: [Sprint].

But when he saw option F, needless to say, he would definitely choose {Absolute Dodge}!

Because when he was fighting Koi before, he found that she shot him so many times, and his 22% evasion was not triggered even once!

Especially when he was at SPX Corporation Headquarters, that bitch almost shot him into the dying state with a single shot.

He still had the effect of [Refraction] at that time, and she still headshot him!!

After learning from the pain, Fang Linyan suspected that this woman had such a powerful ability as “true hit”.

Although [Refraction] had its own priority, this priority was for the illusion created by [Refraction] encountered skills like dispel and insight.

When Koi aimed at Fang Linyan, she was also affected by [Refraction]. Her aiming position still deviated, but the true hit corrected her error, resulting in a headshot!

***

After upgrading the Basic Step to LV7, Fang Linyan still had 4 potential points and 8200 common points left.

At this time, he discovered that whether it was upgrading [Wing Chun Chain Punch] or Tier B Class Ability: {War Machine Operator} (including branch abilities: [Mechanical Gyrfalcon], [Mechanical Dire Wolf])

Starting from level LV1, he needed to spend 2 ​​potential points and 2000 common points.

The reason was that these skills were already rare skills of higher quality. Even in the initial stage of upgrade, more resources would be consumed.

Fang Linyan felt very helpless about this. After much consideration, he upgraded Basic Melee to LV6 and kept the remaining 2 potential points and 6200 common points.

Then he entered the training ground and spent half an hour getting used to my newly improved basic abilities.

At this time, he stopped the last minute preparation, so he continued to stroll around the market with Goat. Suddenly, he thought of something,

“By the way, you said earlier that equipment and weapons can also be enhanced. Now I have 6200 common points left, so I can also strengthen them.”

Goat added,

“There are prerequisites for enhancing equipment and weapons. First, you must become a contractor, then you will only be able to unlock it after your military rank reaches a certain level.”

“We need common points and potential points to upgrade basic abilities. Upgrading equipment and weapons requires another common material besides potential points.”

“I don’t know the specific situation very well. I just heard it from someone. The person wasn’t very clear on it.”

Fang Linyan nodded, then they continued to wander the market with the mentality of picking up a cheap bargain.

As time went by, Fang Linyan noticed some subtle changes in the Space.

The air in the Space had a faint burning smell. On the fleshy walls of the Space in some exposed areas, bulging and congested blood vessels began to appear.

On the original Space square had prohibited the contractor from approaching, there was a dark blue spot began to appear there.

This light spot was mysterious and deep, then it slowly extended towards both ends.

Fierce and violent sparks were scattered from time to time as if a pair of invisible hands were tearing apart the space alive.

Immediately afterward, a huge dark blue portal was formed. It was completely different from the usual white light door, it looked like a huge mouth with a kind of terror of devouring everything.

There were indescribable ripples in the portal as if there was a surging tide that would swallow people alive.

At this time, the contractors gathered in the square in teams, preparing to enter the Space Battlefield.

Their bodies had already shone with a faint light.

Most of these rays of light were pale white. Only a few rays of light were light blue.

According to Goat, these rays were representative of the team level.

After forming a fixed team, the team level itself would also increase. The initial level was gray and had no bonus.

As the team members completed various tasks, the team itself would also gain experience points, thereby improving the level and team skills.

It was not difficult for the team to upgrade from the gray level to the normal level of white, but it was already very difficult to upgrade from the normal level to the blue excellent quality.

It often required most members of the team to be promoted to colony hunter above the contractor to achieve the goal.

They watched while chatting, then they saw that the teams below began to enter the dark blue light door in front, disappearing one by one.

Fang Linyan finally got the prompt,

“Contestant ZB419, your military rank is too low, and you only entered the Low-Intensity Space Battlefield to perform the Ascension Trial.”

“So you can’t get news about the next world in advance.”

“Please enter the plane portal opened in the Square within 5 minutes. The countdown begins now.”

“Once the countdown ends and you have not entered the world, it will be considered as giving up the Ascension Trial.”

Fang Linyan took a deep breath, bade farewell to Goat, strode into the portal, caused a wave of ripples, and quickly disappeared into the portal.

To Fang Linyan’s surprise.

He did not lose consciousness after entering the portal.

Instead, he soon realized that he was in an elongated blue light ball like a comet. The background was the dark and starry sky. He was flying in high speed.

Looking back, there was a deep black hole in the distance that was still spitting out blue light balls, which should be the portal opened by Noah Space S.

There were a large number of fast-flying blue light balls around him. There were also many people in the light balls, but they couldn’t see each other’s real faces.

Most of the other light balls were several people together. According to Fang Linyan’s deduction, a team should occupy a light ball.

At this time, the other people must be looking at Fang Linyan with reverence.

Because this guy could occupy a blue light ball by himself. He must be a badass character recognized by the Space…

This kind of flight didn’t last long, then Fang Linyan felt the blue light ball start to slow down. He was flying toward a cloud-surging planet ahead at high speed.

At the same time, he saw that on the far side of the starry sky, several black hole portals were also opened. They were constantly dropping contractors toward this planet.

Soon, as the distance approached, the planet in front became bigger and bigger and gradually occupied Fang Linyan’s entire field of vision.

It could be vaguely seen that the continents on this planet were actually divided into 4 parts according to the east, west, north and south. The distribution of such 4 continents was completely different from the 7 continents on the Earth.

When the blue light balls began to dive and descend at high speed.

The clouds in front suddenly curled up and formed an overwhelming giant palm!!

The strangest thing about this giant palm was that it had neither fingerprints nor palm prints. Instead, there were phantoms of lotuses blooming around it.

Its area was estimated to be at least several hundred square kilometers. It pressed toward Fang Linyan and the others!!!

Seeing the majestic momentum of this palm, Fang Linyan didn’t have any fear, but he had a feeling of looking up at a high mountain.

Like an ant standing in front of a majestic landslide with flying smoke and dust.

The only thing it could was to bury its head with tentacles in the drop of nectar and fully enjoy the sweetness of nectar…

As for what would happen next, let it be fate. This ant had no way of knowing, nor did it want to know!

Then he lost vision and fainted.

TL: What would his mission be? Can he really survive till the end with him alone?
