Global Era of Star trekking

Chapter 490: Chapter 262: Final Challenge Assessment

The use of various trump card tactics aboard the Cang Qiong indicated Song Chi’s unwavering resolve at that moment.

Under his command, both Tuogu Hong, who drew upon his own life to control fourth-rank combat power, and the fourth-rank Void Demon charged toward the leading Rock Armor Starry Sky Behemoth, determined to eliminate the adversary with the utmost speed.

Behind them, the second Rock Armor Starry Sky Behemoth naturally wouldn’t just stand by and watch. It bellowed and was about to join the battle when Song Chi went all out. The engines of the Cang Qiong roared to life, and its “Light Energy Aggregation” feature was activated.

In an instant, the warship’s speed surged exponentially, heading straight for the second behemoth.

Boom!

After the dull impact, only the Cang Qiong was affected, as the Rock Armor Starry Sky Behemoth’s colossal size was laid bare—how could it be disturbed by the mere 120 meters length of the Cang Qiong?

Once the warship stabilized from being thrown, Song Chi realized that the direct collision had flung the Cang Qiong hundreds of meters away due to the terrifying recoil force.

[Warning, the warship has sustained damage. Current warship armor is damaged by 18%, warship structure by 35%. Please repair immediately.]

Hearing the half-automated shipboard AI’s prompt, Song Chi remained unfazed and unhesitatingly controlled the Cang Qiong to charge once more towards the Rock Armor Starry Sky Behemoth ahead.

At this moment, his only mission was to buy enough time for Tuogu Hong and the fourth-rank Void Demon.

With the enhancement of the Totem True Body and the Ruins Market Walking Command, both had reached the peak of the fourth rank. Given enough time, they could certainly take down the other behemoth.

[Warship hull damage at 38%!]

[Warship hull damage at 43%!]

[Warship hull damage at 50%!]

As time marched on, the Cang Qiong’s damage continued to climb rapidly. The Neutron Star Core Armor had the ability to regenerate, minimizing the impact, but the damage to the hull itself was not something that could be repaired in a short amount of time.

“It’s a pity that the ‘Healing Fruit’ component is of too low quality. If there were a high-quality healing component, the Cang Qiong’s situation would be much better. After I return to the family, I really need to find a way to procure a high-quality recovery component…”

While thinking, Song Chi also divided his attention to keep an eye on the other part of the battlefield.

However, his expression wasn’t very optimistic.

The Void Demon and Tuogu Hong, with their peak fourth-rank combat power, were indeed strong. Each attack came with extreme distortion of the void, and the Rock Armor Starry Sky Behemoth was already slashed with countless wounds.

But the Starry Sky Behemoth’s vitality was astonishing, and such injuries were not enough to disable it in a short time.

Song Chi’s mind raced as he considered other strategies to break through the stalemate.

With the Cang Qiong’s hull damage exceeding 50%, it couldn’t afford to drag the fight out any longer.

About several seconds later, the Void Escape Orb, after another buffering round, activated again, and when the Cang Qiong reappeared, it was directly above the head of the other Rock Armor Starry Sky Behemoth.

Song Chi’s choice of void escape timing was perfect, coinciding exactly with the moment that behemoth threw its head back to roar.

The Cang Qiong, which happened to appear above it, naturally did not hesitate to activate the External Cobalt Piercing Bullet Launcher, firing not one but two special cobalt bullets at the same time.

In the main control room, watching the two special cobalt bullets successively penetrate the fierce mouth of the Rock Armor Starry Sky Behemoth, Song Chi exhaled softly.

If he could add a blast of “Mixed Hollow Extreme Yang Sword Intent Divine Light” to it, the effect would have been even more astonishing. Unfortunately, it was still cooling down.

Boom, boom!

Two violent roars came from below, mixed with the agonizing howl of the Rock Armor Starry Sky Behemoth.

As an earth-attribute Starry Sky Behemoth, its defensive ability was truly remarkable, but that referred to its thick rock armor on the outside. The two special cobalt bullets exploded directly inside its mouth, an area not protected by the rock armor, thus causing severe damage.

In addition to the injuries already inflicted by the Void Demon and Tuogu Hong, with this last assault, the Rock Armor Starry Sky Behemoth was completely incapacitated.

Before long, it fell under the onslaught of Tuogu Hong’s Qingming Sky-Cracking Spear.

With the death of this behemoth, the situation became quite clear. Facing the attack from three sides, the remaining Rock Armor Starry Sky Behemoth could only be swiftly slain.

Regretfully, after killing the second behemoth, Tuogu Hong’s frenzied state was nearing its end, and he could no longer follow to the 76th layer.

Fortunately, after succeeding in this level’s challenge, Song Chi once again had two hours of rest time.

After a deep sleep, his Spiritual Force recovered to be even better than before entering the 75th layer—about seventy-five percent of its peak condition, which was fairly good. @@novelbin@@

Two hours later, the unique ancient sound of the Pusuo Heritage Tower once again echoed.

[Are you ready to challenge the 76th layer? Once the challenge begins, it cannot be terminated unless you successfully clear it or die!!]

Hearing this, Song Chi’s heart tightened slightly, but he did not hesitate much.

“Affirm start!”

Shortly after, a strong pulling force enveloped the hull of the Cang Qiong.

Then, as the space in front of Song Chi morphed, the scene stabilized to reveal a new level within the Virtual Illusion Space.

The guardian creatures of the 76th layer were still Rock Armor Starry Sky Behemoths, but their number had increased from two to three.

As a type of Starry Sky Behemoth, their size was already much larger than other creatures of the same rank. Barely fourth-rank, yet their size exceeded a staggering six thousand meters. The three lined up in the vastness of space, presenting an indescribable pressure from just a single glance.

Unexpectedly, this time Song Chi did not summon the Void Demon. Instead, he kept adjusting the position of the Cang Qiong behind him, seemingly planning to rely on its superior speed to repeat the kite flying tactics used in previous battles.
