Chapter 228: Electro-Optical Tunnel Boring Machine

Kamiyu’s strength exceeded everyone’s imagination. Even the members of the Invincible Frontline Team, who had witnessed her performance on the Crimson Earth, could hardly believe she could kill hundreds of Level 45 Aberrant Beasts with a single strike.

This was why misunderstandings arose. The veteran players in the frontline team thought the Aberrant Beasts had been killed by the Instance Dungeon’s mechanics, while the members of the Student Legion—who had never fought a single battle and still lived under the nightmare of Ability Users—believed it was the Ability Users who had slain these beasts.

In reality, a single one of these high-level Aberrant Beasts on the Crimson Earth would be enough to slaughter those Ability Users.

Kamiyu’s voice made them face reality: all of this was done by this young lady.

“Oh, it’s Lady Kamiyu.”

“Lady Kamiyu has grown even stronger. I understand now—the traces of Lightning Skill attacks on these corpses. Only Lady Kamiyu could have caused all this. Only she is capable of such a feat,” said the team member with the Druid profession.

“That’s right. I’ve seen her move before. It’s like the hammer of the Thunder God, striking the entire earth with a single blow, shaking the very ground. No wonder the thunderclap just now sounded so familiar,” praised another team member.

“Look, it’s Miss Kamiyu,” said someone from the Student Legion.

“Did Miss Kamiyu do all this alone? That’s just too unbelievable,” another Student Legion member expressed doubt.

Jack slowly descended, lowering his altitude to a height suitable for forming a team.

“Captain, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and have everyone form a team. I want to kill that green-haired giant spider Dungeon Boss,” Kamiyu urged.

She thought to herself: Forming teams on the Crimson Earth has no player limit, and most Instance Dungeons don’t restrict numbers either. As long as you can squeeze in, hundreds or even thousands of people can join. A single Dungeon Boss should be enough to let them all collectively level up to 8–10.

“Assemble quickly! Form the team formation!” The captain raised his hand to command.

While they were forming the team, to avoid harming the Royal Pegasus, she specifically adjusted the Barrett skin of the Sound of Chaos. When releasing a direct, beam-type Attack, the Gun Barrel would automatically extend, passing over the Flying Horse’s head.

The overall, nearly 2-meter-long Gun Barrel looked even more imposing. At a glance, this Weapon clearly meant serious business.

Seeing that 192 Thorns Reflection selectable targets had appeared below the icon—meaning the team formation was complete—Jack softly said, “Ready.”

Kamiyu didn’t reply, only giving a slight nod. She was already prepared for her next move. The 2-meter-long Gun Barrel extended past the Flying Horse, aimed directly at the green-haired poisonous spider.

She adjusted the angle, careful not to blast the Fear Emperor Tree Core Zone with one shot and damage the flowers and plants there. Alerting the enemy would be disastrous.

However, beside her, some who had never truly seen Kamiyu fight still harbored doubts about her strength.

“Can Miss Kamiyu really kill that green-haired giant spider? The Level gap is just too big,” a Student Legion member asked with a frown.

After joining the team, everyone could see each other’s Levels. The Student Legion members now realized Kamiyu was “only” Level 29, not even Level 30.

“Right, there’s a 19-Level difference from the Dungeon Boss. I could believe challenging something one or two Levels higher, but 19 Levels? How is that even possible?”

“Yes, I heard from those who transported Magic Crystal Ore and materials back from the Stadium that the Instance Dungeon difficulty can be adjusted. This difficulty is way too high, could it be that Miss Kamiyu accidentally pressed the wrong setting?” What this person really wanted to say was whether Kamiyu was being overconfident.

Some cautious Veteran Player team members also pondered, “Instantly killing hundreds of Level 45 Steel-Blade Poison Spiders is terrifying. With that kind of power, one could roam freely across the Crimson Earth. I wish Lady Kamiyu had such strength, but in reality, Lady Kamiyu probably used the Instance Dungeon mechanics to eliminate those Steel-Blade Poison Spiders.”

Kamiyu paid no attention to these murmurs.

“Here goes.” Kamiyu found the perfect angle and widened her eyes.

Load: Thunderstorm Bullet. Select: Frenzied Lightning Arrow. Stack: Armor-Piercing Bullet.

Select Core Skill: Super-Phase Energy Cannon.

Load: Thunderstorm Bullet. Select: Frenzied Lightning Arrow. Stack: Armor-Piercing Bullet.

Select DPS Mode: Six-in-One.

Stack Flying Horse Affix: Electric Attribute Attack Power increased by 200%.

A beam of electro-optical energy, as thick as a Tunnel Boring Machine’s cutterhead—white on the outside and red within—tilted and unleashed a torrent of violent energy. The super-high-temperature energy, reaching thousands of degrees, vaporized the terrain instantly. The electro-optical energy beam, stretching dozens of kilometers, obliterated hundreds of buildings.

The scorching, fierce winds blasted away everyone nearby. The Student Legion, caught unprepared, was sent flying one by one, while even some experienced Veteran Player Frontline Team members were thrown into disarray by the gale.

“Oops, the energy output was too high.” Without even checking the effect or whether the Dungeon Boss had been eliminated, Kamiyu immediately released the Trigger.

“A 1080x Super-Phase Energy Cannon already has this kind of power. If combined with the Flying Horse’s Skill Affix for Displacement, which compensates for the Phase Energy Cannon’s lack of mobility, enabling a ‘Flash Ultimate’—teleporting and unleashing the Ultimate Skill to ambush from behind—how unstoppable would that be?” Kamiyu imagined extravagantly in her mind.

Kamiyu also cautiously considered avoiding piercing through enemies and hitting allies when attacking from behind. “It seems there’s merit to Sun X-kong’s tactic of fighting X-lu from a lower position, standing on the left side to fire energy waves.”

It seemed that even in a left-side energy wave clash, she wouldn’t lose.

The Super-Phase Energy Cannon fired for less than a second.

Without a second thought, any Level 48 Dungeon Boss, any Boss with specially enhanced Attack Power, couldn’t survive even a single second under Kamiyu’s absolute firepower.

The “Electro-Optical Tunnel Boring Machine,” moving at near-light speed, slammed into the green-haired giant spider, burning through the Boss from head to tail, leaving only ten massive spider legs behind.

【Ding, obtained 100 Enhancement Points. Total Enhancement Points: 889】

Everyone was still stunned, completely unaware of what had just happened. In the blink of an eye, the Boss had vanished.

“What just happened?”

“Huh, my Level went up.” “Look, I reached Level 12.” “I’m Level 13.”

Kamiyu was somewhat surprised. She had originally expected them to only reach Levels 8 to 9, but they had climbed to Level 13. It seemed this green-haired giant spider Boss was indeed a Treasure Chest of Experience for them.

The Captain dismounted from his horse, looking up at Kamiyu with admiration, and couldn’t help but exclaim, “I’ve never seen such an astonishing feat before—a 19-level gap, and you obliterated the Dungeon Boss with a single shot. It seems Lady Kamiyu has already reached the level of a deity.”

Another person sighed with emotion, “Lady Kamiyu’s future is truly boundless. Each time, she surpasses our imagination, and we can hardly fathom just how strong she will become in the future.”

“It seems even the Fear Emperor is no match for Lady Kamiyu’s strength,” someone else exclaimed excitedly.

Seeing everyone still standing frozen in place, Jack shouted, “What are you all waiting for? Hurry and clean up the battlefield. We need to head to the next Mine.”
