Chapter 660: Skill – Psionic Flame
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
As Feng Luo was reading through his system log, Mu Zi’s group had been circling around the safe. After attacking the Cerebrate in the safe three more times, they confirmed that it was really dead!
However, the thought of the next step was something that made everyone scowl.
Their original plan was to get the Cerebrate out of the safe so that they could easily carry it around with them outside. However, that plan was no longer feasible because after Feng Luo woke up from the mental attack of the Cerebrate, the Commander Grade Steel Beetle, “Steel One,” was no longer moving.
The Cerebrate’s mental attack hit all of the creatures inside the lab, and the Steel Beetle that had the ability to destroy the safe had probably made the Cerebrate feel threatened. Therefore, the Cerebrate had unleashed a more ferocious attack to defend itself!
Although the Commander Grade Steel Beetle had no external injuries on its body, it showed no signs of being alive.
The screen of Mu Zi’s recon meter showed that its brain, which was hidden under its tough shell, had been blown to bits!
This revelation affected Feng Luo’s mood negatively.
“Steel One” was the highest leveled beetle among all of the Commander Grade Steel Beetles.
Compared to Elite Grade Steel Beetles, Commander Grade Steel Beetles were capable of surviving through considerable damage due to them possessing energy shields.
In terms of battle strength, this Commander Grade Steel Beetle might even be stronger than top-class players that are not equipped with Legendary Grade items!
However, before more than five days could pass since its development, and after only making one appearance on the Devil Tri-Horn Fog Island, it was already dead.
Also, there was the tragic condition of 24K. So, it was natural for Feng Luo to feel sad and anguished.
The fall of the Commander Grade Steel Beetle had highlighted the weakness of beetle soldiers. As wild monsters, they only had one life. Therefore, once they had died, they could not be brought back to life.
Likewise, even though 24K seemed incredibly strong, it also had two severe weaknesses. Its first weakness was that its combat power and HP were incredibly low. Therefore, it could be killed quite easily. Its second weakness was that it relied on its subordinates to fight in all its battles. The moment it loses all, or a majority, of its subordinates in a battle, it could quickly become the weakest Boss Grade pet throughout War!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRegardless, even if the Commander Grade Steel Beetle was alive, they still did not have any way to open the safe.
With 24K currently unconscious, no matter how good and powerful Feng Luo was, he had no way of directly communicating with the beetle soldiers. Therefore, he would not be able to instruct them to perform specific actions.
“What do we do? This safe is just too sturdy. My armor-breaking skills have been completely useless. My sword’s destruction coefficient is C-Grade, but it did not even leave any mark on its surface!”
Boss Meng raised his beloved golden sword, which was as broad as a door, in the air. With his large body that weighed over 300 pounds, he waved and swung his large alloy sword at the safe. The result? He was pushed back by the recoil of his swing after hitting the safe. He did not manage to deal any sort of destructive damage to it at all!
As such, he could only look at the people from the Nightless Club with a resigned expression.
“Nothing seems to be damaging it, so we will have to move the safe with us outside. Although a few places outside will not be easy to bypass, we should be able to dig through the walls!” said Rose Thorns with a frown.
“It seems like that’s our only choice...”
Little Witch even used her energy to create flames and directed them towards the safe, hoping they would burn it. However, it was apparent that the safe was made with fireproof material. Just before she raised the temperature of the flames, Mu Zi ordered her to stop because the closed-off lab actually had a high concentration of oxygen. If she were to continue trying to burn the safe a little while longer, everyone might have suffocated.
Although they tried various methods of destroying the safe, it appeared to be indestructible.
Since Feng Luo had retracted the unconscious 24K and was now standing silently beside the corpse of the Steel Beetle, some of the others guessed that Feng Luo was not in a good mood.
Therefore, they chose not to bother him with anything and ultimately decided that the best course of action was to carry the safe with them.
However, Feng Luo had completed scanning through his system logs and said, “No, wait! It won’t hurt for me to try! Besides, I want to experiment with something.”
After seeing Mu Zi and the others prepare to carry the safe, Feng Luo regained his senses and stopped them.
“Brother Feng, could it be that you have a plan?”
Little Witch widened her eyes, which were covered with purple eyeshadow, and stared curiously at Feng Luo.
Feng Luo believed that there was still hope for them.
After all, Feng Luo had summoned the Steel Beetle earlier to destroy the safe.
Not to mention, Feng Luo was only the “second” person to awaken the Force across the entire game.
“I don’t know if my plan will work, but I still want to test it out.” Feng Luo walked over and pulled out Ghost Weep from his tactical belt. After that, he quickly and decisively swung the blade at the safe.
“Pa!”
A very shallow cut marking appeared on the surface of the safe.
Feng Luo was not surprised that the attack was unable to do much damage to the safe.
Even Phoenix’s Legendary Grade alloy sword and armor breaking skill could not deal significant damage to the safe. Therefore, it was normal for Ghost Weep, with its destruction coefficient lower than the two Legendary Grade alloy swords, to not be able to do much damage.
“Pang!”
Feng Luo’s right arm suddenly swelled up.
Ghost Weep’s attached skill was activated. His entire arm was engulfed in a layer of black gas while his arm’s size increased by over two-thirds. It was incredible to see.
The others stared at Feng Luo in shock. Just as they regained their senses, Boss Meng stared at Ghost Weep passionately and said, “Eh? Brother Feng, your military knife... Could it be...”
A combination of his alloy sword and armor breaking skill only left a slight mark on the safe. However, Feng Luo’s first slash at the safe was strong enough to leave a mark with a similar depth to his when he was using the armor breaking skill!
However, his alloy sword was only a Level 45 weapon, and its destruction coefficient was not considered to be the strongest. As such, he did not think of much in the beginning and only guessed that the dagger that Feng Luo held had a destruction coefficient of B-Grade.
However, now that he was looking at the phenomena happening around Feng Luo’s arm, it had become clear to everyone that the military knife had improved significantly since the last time they saw it. It was now a Legendary Grade weapon!
“Yes, it is a Legendary Grade weapon!” Feng Luo did not try to show off or hide it from them.
Instead, with the attached skill activated, he swung the dagger at the safe once more!
“Clang!”
This time, a half a centimeter deep cut was left on the surface of the safe. It was quite clear to see.
However, in comparison to the thickness of the safe itself, it was still not very effective.
“It’s still not working. Even a Legendary Grade weapon with an attached skill isn’t able to do anything! This is quite a challenge, isn’t it?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSince Feng Luo’s slash still failed to inflict much damage upon the safe, some of the group began to feel distressed and defeated.
After all, they all witnessed how a Legendary Grade weapon with an attached skill had failed to open the safe!
Did they really have to go with plan B and bring this large safe along with them while digging through walls?
Feng Luo did not say anything. Instead, he observed the mark that the Ghost Weep left on the safe.
He did not find it odd or surprising that the Legendary Grade weapon’s skill failed to open the safe instantly because Ghost Weep’s skill only increased his arm strength. Ghost Weep’s destructive power did not increase.
Furthermore, if the gap between the attacker’s destruction coefficient and the defender’s defense coefficient was too large, no matter how high his strength, it would be impossible to inflict any substantial signs of damage!
Clearly, the safe’s defense coefficient was ridiculously high.
The only reason why Feng Luo cut at the safe again with Ghost Power activated was to make a comparison between two skills. He wanted to test the difference between Ghost Power and Psionic Flame.
“Psionic Flame!”
Feng Luo activated the Psionic Energy skill that he had just received and chose for the flames to attach to the Ghost Weep.
“Woosh!”
Ghost Weep was instantly covered in a layer of black gas!
Ghost Weep would usually turn a black shade after activating its own skill, but the black substance that covered the weapon looked more like a layer of gas.
Feng Luo looked at the black substance, which absorbed all forms of light, as it wrapped around the Ghost Weep. It resembled an incredibly tranquil and peaceful lake without any forms of ripple and was incredibly smooth!
“Chi!”
However, when Feng Luo swung Ghost Weep at the safe, the black lake water changed drastically. Ripples started to appear on the originally calm-looking surface!
The moment the Ghost Weep’s blade made contact with the surface of the safe, the ripple changed and transformed into a layer of dancing Psionic Flames!
The safe that withstood the attacks from the Legendary Grade alloy swords of Phoenix and Sword Ki Long River, both of which had destruction bonuses, instantly crumbled upon making contact with Ghost Weep, which was infused with the destructive Psionic Energy.
