Poverty makes me capable of anything.

Anran decided to avoid the limelight for the time being, but the monster had obviously anticipated this step. The withered vines that wrapped around her from all directions were like Urgot's chains.

For a moment, An Ran saw nothing but a screen full of intertwined withered vines.

Is the next step just a strangulation?

Sizzle, sizzle—

The twin swords reappeared, and just as An Ran decided to transform into a berserker, a bright light suddenly appeared in the dark seawater.

Like sunlight piercing through the night.

A new storm has appeared; it is a light spear, spinning and shooting, carving a channel tens of meters wide through the seabed.

Even at sea, hundreds of miles away, the locals could see the light appearing in the storm.

After the storm, sunlight pierced through the thick clouds, but this time the rays appeared from below.

A moment later, the light spear transformed into an umbrella handle, surrounded by a fan-shaped surface. After piercing the monster's body, it burst out of the sea and soared into the sky.

The scattered black malice instantly collapsed.

"Boom—"

The explosion completely disrupted the area.

The seabed topography in the shallow areas has completely collapsed.

It collapsed three times: from the monster's attack, An Ran's attack, and the blows delivered by Ella, who charged in piloting the "Night Messenger".

"NICE!"

The black ball is no longer stable.

Even if she was being pushed around, An Ran absolutely could not let go of such a golden opportunity.

With the thrust from his back fully activated, the twin blades seemed to transform into electric fans in an instant, spinning and slashing, one strike after another against the monster's withered vines.

The sphere wrapped in withered vines gradually disintegrated, and An Ran completely ignored the huge damage numbers that floated out.

"Die, die, become experience!"

The exaggerated way he waved his arms was comparable to the live-action version of a mouse being swung.

brush brush...

-7190

-11030

To put it simply, it feels like grinding a boss in a game where hundreds or even thousands of health bars drop off at an alarming rate.

Or perhaps a version of Ora Ora with a sword...

boom--

Chest | Shooting a cannon.

The sudden impact finally created a gap in the withered vine, and the unstable black ball exploded.

Gale-force winds, torrential rain, and thunder.

Even before it fully formed, the black sphere was as powerful as a natural disaster, a rain of fire and explosive bombs.

The seabed rock strata have finally experienced their fourth collapse.

From now on, this place will become an excellent shipping route without reefs. An Ran, who was at the center of the explosion, was pushed more than ten miles away. The shield kept going through the cycle of destruction and recharging. The energy that was originally half left was reduced to one-fifth in the blink of an eye, and the left hand of the mech did not seem to be operating so smoothly.

"Stun buff, hit rate reduced by 10%, emmm..."

"My armor dropped by 2100, which translates to 21000 HP, more than half of my health."

"Damn it, the repairs are going to cost a lot of money again."

"Anran, Anran, I've already reached the monster's back." Ella's voice suddenly rang in my mind.

That's really good!

"Stab him from behind!"

stab-

A light blade shot out from his right hand again, and in an instant, he was right in front of the monster.

Attacked from both sides, Ella attacked from behind, while Anran pierced the monster's body from the front!

That's the plan!

A three-way battle.

Similar to what a player once said: "Nothing can stop me. If it does, I'll just bring two mechs that are just as strong as his."

Ella stabbed with a spear, while Anran slashed and stabbed with a knife.

Despite its best efforts to resist, the level 80 monster eventually succumbed to the overwhelming force and collapsed.

These two giants were incredibly powerful. Although it hadn't experienced countless battles, it was still exceptionally gifted. Even so, it couldn't withstand their pincer attack and was helpless against them.

moment--

The withered vines shattered, and the broken body sank into the murky seabed.

The final float of -7796 was its death sentence.

"You killed the Evil Vine (elite), contribution rate 67%, gained 2.01 million free experience points."

A kill that is 8 levels higher than the target grants an additional 1.608 million experience points.

"You have completed the hidden planet-level main quest [The Expulsion of Dolphin Star], gained 1.5 million free experience points, Dolphin Star native faction reputation +900 (Honored), obtained Void Evil Summoning Card*1, obtained the talents [Void Hunter], [Water Ripple], [Intermediate Recovery Resilience III], and obtained the rare passive [Residual].

Void Evil Summoning Card: Summons Evil Vine to assist in battle for 1 hour.

Void Hunter: Increases damage dealt to Void creatures by 10%.

Water Ripple: Increases water affinity by 15%, granting water adaptability comparable to that of sea creatures.

Intermediate Recovery Resilience III: Increases recovery ability by 300%, and by 500% when health drops below 50%.

Residual: Immune to instant-death attacks; a single attack will only deal a maximum of 95% of maximum health as damage.

As expected of a planet-level main quest, let's not even talk about the experience; all these talents and passive skills are god-tier.

The most obvious effect is the increased damage. Water affinity ensures that when drinking a special ability awakening potion, the potion's quality is instantly upgraded, turning trash into a substandard product, and a substandard product into a regular one…

Its enhanced recovery capabilities ensure that it can stand safely and remain unharmed even when subjected to high-speed machine gun fire.

[Residual] is even more amazing. With the player-level body data and the addition of Residual, the probability of a counterattack is greatly increased.

Even if you are seriously injured, you will still die from bleeding or poisoning, but you will never be instantly killed.

Even if someone's heart is blown off by a single shot, they can recover with powerful medicine or recovery skills.

nice one.

This kind of panel looks more like a boss's panel.

Furthermore, the prompt "xxx's favorability +..." * N is of little importance.

Given Anran's current prestige, if she wanted to pursue a path to religious victory on Dolphin Star, it would be as simple as shouting slogans.

The sea dwellers would joyfully welcome the Pope's arrival.

Outside, the waves were still crashing, but the commotion on the seabed was gradually subsiding. Through the slightly murky water, Anran discovered some more interesting things.

deep♂dark♂f……

Please remove any symbols that are unclear or ambiguous.

Actually, it's food from the deep, dark sea.

It is indeed dark food.

The churning seawater couldn't block An Ran's eyes; the corpse of the evil vine, fallen onto the exposed rock strata, revealed new descriptive words.

"You can collect ingredients!" That's amazing.

Actually, those insects that were killed before, if they weren't blown up by gunfire, can also be harvested.

It's just like the saying goes, "Don't throw away the monsters you kill, collect them, coat them with egg wash... even the kids will be drooling."

Not only will I kill you, I'll eat you too. You must be a high-grade ingredient, the kind that can provide bonuses.

Like those monsters that Saitama killed and ate, such as the seaweed monster and the mushroom monster.

I just wonder what the Evil Vine tastes like.

If it's dry and tough, it might be harder to get, so you'll need to cook it a little longer.

We're in the sea, so let's catch some seafood and cook it.

"Ella, wait for me."

After saying that, An Ran controlled the mecha to land near Evil Vine.

She emerged from the mecha's cockpit and floated peacefully in the seawater. With her current strength, she could stay in the seawater for a long time even without breathing.

But this time it's different.

She felt a sense of familiarity, and could move freely, as if the flowing water was no longer an obstacle.

She temporarily switched her formal, tight-fitting combat suit to a one-piece swimsuit from her memory and walked excitedly to the vicinity of Evil Vine.

Use of general food gathering techniques.

Loading bar —

Although there were no special effects, it was as if an invisible knife was cutting through the corpse of the evil vine.

Each time the loading bar completes, a piece of food will fall to the ground.

It took about five minutes to safely harvest all the edible parts of the evil vine.

The rough vines were also collected into the subspace. These were orange materials used to make whip-like weapons. Anran herself didn't need them, but she could sell them in the shop.

She is now consciously trying to increase the variety of items sold in the official Time-Space Shop, not just weapons, but also decorations.

The sand sculptures on the Mosha River will be available soon, and maybe we can even get some local specialties from Dolphin Star.
