216: Chapter 216 Sunset Ship Offline! New Talent

The spectating Players cried out in alarm one after another.

Within the coalition, the cannon fodder who were already hesitating immediately left the dungeon the moment they saw the tentacles move out.

The only reason they had stayed here was for fear that the regional boss would settle scores with them later.

Now that they had such a legitimate reason, there was no reason to stay any longer.

White lights flashed repeatedly as more and more Players fled.

District One sea region.

The Players who had entered through the district merger looked at the sky with nervous expressions, not knowing what those tentacles intended to do.

However, the survivors from the original District One finally had a change in expression.

They subconsciously checked the tentacle items in their backpacks, then breathed a sigh of relief and sneered:

"Which unlucky bastard threw away their tentacle item?"

"Hehe, no idea. There's a good show to watch now."

Outside the dungeon, the Mainline World.

Watching the abnormality inside the dungeon, Sky Eye's heart throbbed inexplicably. He said nervously:

"This couldn't be the china's doing, could it?"

"Exit the dungeon, exit... Uh?"

Setting Sun froze for a moment, then immediately followed up:

"Exit the dungeon... can he control that monster? Exit the dungeon..."

"Probably not. If that were the case, there'd be no point in playing; we might as well just surrender."

Sky Eye thought that made sense and breathed a sigh of relief. "Still, it's a bit tricky now that the monster is moving. Being killed by it means being forced offline directly."

"Exit the dungeon, what's there to fear? It's just some cannon fodder Players. Exit the dungeon..."

"That's true... Setting Sun!"

Just as Sky Eye was about to reply, a flash occurred before his eyes, and Setting Sun disappeared from his spot again.

Just when he thought Setting Sun would reappear the next moment, three seconds passed, and there was still no movement before him.

A trace of panic rose in Sky Eye's heart. He held his breath, his hands trembling as he opened his friend list.

When he saw that Setting Sun's avatar was still lit, he slowly exhaled in relief.

However, just as he was about to click for a private chat, Setting Sun's avatar suddenly turned gray.

Thump—

Sky Eye's heart skipped a beat. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

"Setting Sun... he... went offline?!"

At the same time, Frenzied Demon and Swift Shadow also discovered this and were frantically sending private messages to Sky Eye.

...

"Phew... that was close."

Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief and took the glass bottle handed over by Kuka.

Inside the bottle, a wisp of blood mist floated in the center.

Just a moment ago.

At the instant the tentacle was about to attack, Kuka had pulled Setting Sun back.

Also at that moment, Chen Fan made two moves.

First, he cast Freeze on Setting Sun, then he activated the Spirit Realm to flee.

Although the Freeze only lasted for a few brief seconds, Chen Fan had already calculated the timing perfectly.

By the time the tentacle struck down, he had just managed to escape.

Setting Sun, frozen in place, was killed instantly.

But after killing Setting Sun, the tentacle did not retreat; instead, it chased after Chen Fan, who had entered the Spirit Realm.

Chen Fan made a split-second decision, circling back into the recall range of the aircraft carrier and retrieving the tentacle item.

Suddenly, the massive tentacle seemed to lose its target and froze in place.

After a few seconds, the tentacle slowly retracted toward the sky.

Exhaling deeply once more, Chen Fan stepped into the cabin of the aircraft carrier.

Looking at the glass bottle in his hand, the corners of his mouth gradually curled upward.

Although this venture was dangerous, the harvest was equally great!

Not only had he dealt with the powerful enemy Setting Sun, but he had also confiscated his Talent.

Mid-air.

Aurell took Kuka into the air again.

Watching the retracting tentacle from a distance, he touched the tentacle item in his pocket and swallowed hard:

"That monster is truly terrifying."

"Yeah, without this item, we wouldn't be able to act independently at all." Kuka also touched the tentacle item in his pocket, feeling the same way.

Aurell glanced sideways at Kuka and said seemingly casually:

"You don't want to absorb it?"

Kuka chuckled and shook his head. "Let Master absorb it first. Once he becomes powerful, it won't be too late for us to absorb it."

"Suit yourself."

Aurell curled his lip and flew at full speed toward the rear of the coalition Players.

By now, the coalition Players were already in a state of collapse.

The Mechanical Dragon was still rampaging, and more and more white lights were flashing.

The two of them found an empty stretch of sea and deployed the thirty thousand ghost ships once again.

"Fire!"

At Kuka's command, over sixty thousand shells pierced through the night sky.

At the same time, the cooldown for Flame Breath ended. Davian controlled the dragon and breathed fire down toward the most densely populated area of Players.

Screams and wails echoed incessantly.

"Hold! Everyone hold your ground!"

The former number two and current leader of District 50, Vertical and Horizontal, roared in the channel.

This was the first war he had participated in since succeeding as the leader.

Reports of victory from the front-line elites kept coming in. Seeing that victory was imminent, he didn't want to let the cooked duck fly away.

"Boss, we really can't hold on anymore. This dragon is too terrifying."

"Why is it that so many people from other districts have run away, but we can't?"

"Let's run, Boss! If we don't, our district will be ruined!"

Vertical and Horizontal took a deep breath and said in a heavy tone: "It's precisely because they ran that we can't. When the operation succeeds, we will be the greatest contributors. Our losses can be fully compensated by District 3300."

Upon hearing this, the District 50 Players gritted their teeth and said fiercely:

"Then we'll hold on a bit longer. If the other districts all run away, then we'll run too!"

"Right, we'll wait until we're the last ones to run. That way we can give an account of ourselves."

Vertical and Horizontal nodded vigorously and said, "Good Brothers, whether District 50 can rise depends on this battle."

At the same time, the commanders of the original five districts almost all issued the same order: Hold to the death!

Only some group leaders from the three newly joined districts couldn't handle the pressure and issued retreat orders.

But none of this was within Chen Fan's scope of consideration anymore.

Seeing the coalition formation in chaos, Chen Fan immediately gave Davian the order to return.

The reason was simple.

On the main battlefield ahead, that ragtag bunch from District One couldn't hold on.

Even with over 800 elites present, and even with the fortress's defense and damage reduction, they were still unable to hold out.

The Mechanical Dragon's speed was maxed out, and it soon flew back.

Every basic attack could wipe out a thousand-man elite squad.

Combined with the occasional support from the annihilation ship, the pressure on the District One Players was suddenly reduced.

Seeing this, the new District One Players breathed a sigh of relief and let out bursts of strange laughter and mockery, which made the 800 elites frown repeatedly.

They were not like the original District One Players who had gone through multiple rounds of training and selection.

Given Luo Li's leadership ability, these Players must have come all this way without experiencing much hardship.

"This ragtag bunch needs to be properly trained, otherwise they'll be useless at critical moments."

Chen Fan shook his head and sighed.

"Next, let me see what your Talent actually is."

Chen Fan looked at the blood mist in the glass bottle and slowly unscrewed the cap.

He brought his head close to the mouth of the bottle and took a deep breath.

Instantly.

The blood mist was completely absorbed.

At the same time, Chen Fan's breathing suddenly stopped, and a trace of shock appeared in his eyes.

"This Talent... are you serious?"
