Chapter 314 Did the Traveling God's Plans Backfire? He Was Too Steadfast!
Purchase of the "Extreme Ascension Gift Pack - Made" has been successful.
5000 gold coins were deducted from the account.
The heavy metal music playing on the metal box stopped completely, and the underground plaza fell into an eerie silence.
The eerie blue light in the eyes of the hundreds of mutated miners instantly turned crimson.
They growled like wild beasts, raised their rusty pickaxes and heavy mechanical arms, and pounced madly towards Chen You in the center of the square.
Chaos, carrying a sense of impending doom, completely enveloped Chen You.
Baq, who was under the mine cart, covered his eyes tightly, unable to bear watching the bloody scene that was about to unfold.
Chen You stood still, his expression calm.
He did not draw his sword.
Raise your right hand, bring your index and middle fingers together, and point them straight at the dome.
The Divine Firmament Thunder Orthodox Method.
It requires no lengthy chanting or cumbersome spellcasting animation.
"boom!"
A deafening thunderclap resounded in the enclosed underground space.
The metal pipes in the dome were instantly melted through by the violent lightning.
Thick bolts of purple lightning cascaded down, striking precisely three meters away from Chen You.
The violent lightning-attribute spiritual energy came into contact with the conductive metal ground, instantly forming a dense network of lightning.
Purple arcs of electricity leaped and darted wildly across hundreds of monsters.
There were no screams.
With overwhelming numerical superiority, the mutated miner's health bar was instantly reduced to zero.
They were directly carbonized by the intense heat of thunder, shattering into a pile of black charcoal.
The entire clearing process took less than three seconds.
Chen You lowered his hand.
Apart from him, there was not a single other living being standing in the square.
The air was filled with a pungent, burnt smell.
Buck peeked through his fingers and froze.
He scrambled out from under the mine cart and knelt down at Chen You's feet with a thud.
"Your Majesty is mighty! Your Majesty's power is boundless!" Buck trembled with excitement, his words incoherent.
"I've been in the mining industry for thirty years, and I've never seen such terrifying lightning! These monsters are less than rats in a sewer compared to you!"
Chen You ignored Buck's flattery.
He brought up the system panel to check the gift pack he had just purchased.
The Qi Gathering Pill is optional.
The limited-edition title "Immovable King" is merely icing on the cake.
Most importantly, it's the skill book for the fourth move of the "Breaking the Sky Sword Technique," namely, "Closed Moon."
Chen You raised an eyebrow slightly.
Something is missing.
When he mastered the moves, the gift pack included the Chapter of the Ultimate Realm, allowing him to enter the illusionary realm to observe the demonstration and thus comprehend the sword intent.
Why isn't there a chapter on extreme conditions this time?
Chen You clicked on the detailed description of [Control] again, his gaze sweeping over the line "Absolutely immune to all mental and soul control skills".
A moment later, he turned off the instructions and felt relieved.
This is different from other attack skills.
It is itself an application of sword intent.
It is pure mental defense, the absolute control of the soul by sword intent.
With sword intent as the key, all techniques cannot penetrate.
This introspective state of mind cannot be visualized as an image or illusion for anyone to imitate.
Having figured this out, Chen You stopped hesitating and directly chose to use the skill book [Closed Moon].
[Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully mastered the fourth move of the Heaven-Shattering Sword Technique: Moon-Closing.]
[The Heaven-Shattering Sword Technique - Moon-Closing: Uses ultimate sword intent to seal the target's vital energy, forcibly interrupting any spells or skills they are channeling or releasing, and causing temporary stagnation of their meridians.]
Chen You looked at the skill description and a smile appeared on his lips.
Use sword intent to seal off the flow of qi and break all laws.
The copywriting is quite sophisticated.
In simple, straightforward online gaming terms, this is a forced interrupt skill with absolute priority, plus a brief silence effect.
Whether it's a channeled ultimate skill or a continuous spell, one sword strike will kill it instantly.
With the help of the control system, his current margin for error in actual combat has reached an extremely absurd level.
Chen You turned off the control panel and dusted off his hands.
Seeing that Chen You had finished his work, Buck quickly stepped forward, rubbing his hands together with a big smile on his face.
"Sir, the surrounding spies have been cleared away. The power room is at the end of this passage."
Buck pointed to the dark tunnel ahead, "The source of pollution inside is extremely dangerous; it's the ultimate cancer in our mining area."
At this point, Buck lowered his voice, his tone becoming mysterious.
"But don't worry, our City Lord's Mansion has a special VIP cooperation program." Buck held up two fingers.
"For a fee of two thousand gold coins, I will immediately activate the underlying self-destruct program. Whatever the source of the contamination, it will kill itself on the spot! Safe, quick, and painless."
Two thousand gold coins can buy the life of a BOSS.
Based on Chen You's past personality, he would definitely take out the money without hesitation.
He wouldn't lift a finger to solve a problem that could be solved with money.
But this time he shook his head.
"No need," Chen You said calmly.
Buck froze, his smile freezing on his face: "Sir, the monsters inside are really dangerous, they are..."
"Lead the way," Chen You interrupted Buck.
He came to the Hidden Star Mine not only to complete the main quest, but also to confirm whether the Star Sea King's projection was indeed hidden inside.
That concerns the world's leader.
If you directly pay the system to blow up the BOSS, and it happens to destroy key clues, plot items, or hidden NPCs as well, then you'll really lose a lot of money.
Money can be spent, but it shouldn't create a negative impact.
He had to go in and take a look himself to confirm the target's identity.
Seeing Chen You's resolute attitude, Buck dared not push the package any further and could only cautiously lead the way.
……
Entrance to the Hidden Star Mine instance.
The open space inside the cave was packed with players.
Outside the cave, crowds thronged, and the flags of various guilds fluttered in the wind and snow.
Braving the bitter cold, everyone craned their necks to stare at the portal that shimmered with a ghostly blue light.
There was a constant murmur of discussion among the crowd.
"It's been several hours, why is there still no movement?" A berserker player rubbed his hands together and exhaled a puff of white breath.
A mage nearby chimed in, "When You Shen usually runs a dungeon, doesn't he finish the battle in three to five minutes?"
"He usually goes into a dungeon like the Tomb of a Thousand Lights, takes a quick look around, and then comes out. Today it's taken a bit longer than usual."
"Could it be that the car overturned?" someone muttered quietly.
The moment those words were spoken, the surroundings fell silent.
A few seconds later, countless murderous gazes were cast at the thief who had spoken.
The thief shrank back and chuckled dryly, "It was just a reasonable guess..."
"Speculation my ass!"
Bloodbath is a little sweet as he squeezes through carrying a greatsword.
He glared and shouted, "What kind of panel is that, 'God of Travel'? Even if you crash, he couldn't possibly crash!"
"That level 40 mutated ice demon just now had an invincible shield, but You Shen killed it with a single sword strike! Can the monsters in this mine even break through its defenses?"
The players nodded in agreement.
But it has indeed taken too long.
"But to be honest, the mechanics of this Hidden Star Mine are disgusting," a priest player sighed. "Our guild just organized a raid in there yesterday."
"And what was the result?" someone asked curiously.
"And then?" the priest smiled wryly. "We encountered a group of mutated miners as soon as we entered the first hall."
"As soon as that lousy speaker started playing, our captain threw down his shield and grabbed two male assassins next to him and started dancing. We couldn't pull them apart."
A burst of laughter erupted from the crowd.
"What's this?" another hunter player said, his face full of grief and indignation.
"I was inside for less than three seconds when I was affected by that mental pollution. I couldn't control myself and took off all my equipment."
Everyone laughed even louder.
"So, this dungeon is impossible to clear in groups," Bloodbath Sweet said with a hint of pride.
"The more monsters there are, the more control skills you have, and you can even use them seamlessly. You can only pull them out one by one and slowly whittle them down."
He looked around and said with certainty, "Even if the Wanderer God has a high attack power, he still needs to be tacticable when facing the chain control of hundreds of monsters."
"He must be using the terrain to his advantage, taking them down one by one."
"Absolutely rock solid!"
