Chapter 584: Pseudo-Environment, Chameleons
“I can tell it’s an environmental camouflage.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
These lizards were standing on the surface of the beach but even Feng Luo was unable to notice them just by looking with the naked eye. It could be said that they had totally changed their bodies with the sand’s color.
As burning meteors and fiery rain fell continuously from the sky, the surface of the beach had turned into a different situation.
A lizard-shaped creature appeared, densely covering the entire beach, and the color of its body became the same as the energy flame that had spread, it was identical to the radiation emitted from the burning flame. You might forget that War is a technological online game just by looking at this situation.
Feng Luo thought that if they were playing a magical game, then these lizards would be the “flame elemental dragons” formed by the fire element, because the scene that was unfolding right in front of them was truly gorgeous.
“Boom, boom...”
“-2003, -2344, -2133...”
However, no matter how strong their environmental camouflage tricks were, they could not escape the tricks which covered the range of the entire beach from the elementalists.
A black-smoked fireball exploded on the beach, causing each of the fiery “fire elemental dragons” to lose their health points rapidly from each attack.
Just from the first attack on the island, Feng Luo could tell that the coordination capabilities within the Nine-Star Guild players were far superior as compared to the normal players. There were more than thirty fire elementalists attacking together, but between each player’s skill coverage, none of which were overlapping, which maximized the effectiveness of each of their skills.
For this aspect, it was not something that players who just recently teamed up were able to do, even if they were all expert players.
“Hiss, hiss...”
However, the range of the meteor shower would cover almost the entire beach.
Despite that, the base level of the Hypertoxic Chameleons was Level 60; this was a rare high-level common creature. Its health points could be compared to a Level 50 Elite monster.
It was not as easy as using one skill to wipe out the monsters.
More particularly, being a high-level monster, their AI would not allow them to simply stay idle and get beaten up on the beach.
They quickly split into two groups, like a chameleon that leaped into flames. The portion that was closer to the inland of the beach chose to quickly flee into the forest behind them, the other portion which was closer to the coast of the beach, chose to run towards the sea.
“Hiss, hiss...”
The chameleons, one after the other, quickly jumped into the sea from the flame-covered beach.
Next, these “flame lizards” did not swim or sink into the sea like the players predicted.
“Click, click, click...”
Upon jumping onto the surface of the sea, these lizards’ limbs began to move at an extremely high frequency, so much so that it directly stood on the surface of the sea and rapidly charged towards the players who were close.
This was undoubtedly another visually felt image.
Hundreds of flame-burning lizards were running across the sea on the surface as a single clump of flame burning in the sea. It drew countless fiery tracks on the evening ocean liner.
“Everyone be careful, this type of lizard is highly toxic. Don’t allow it to come close enough to bite you.” Because of its proximity to the island area, communication was disrupted, and the line of command was now through a loudhailer.
“Click, click, click...”
This did not require a mention, but the players who participated in this activity had no lack of experience fighting monsters.
On a speedboat, a scout’s submachine gun had sounded, and coupled with the light blue wind blade, crystal clear water arrow, it caused the sea surface to have water sparks fly everywhere. With those color-changing lizards moving at high-speed in the sea, the visuals were even more complete.
However, the composition of the image changed again, after the color-changing lizards charged into the sea a few meters.
The color of each flame lizard quickly faded, and eventually, the whole sea had lost its visual presence. Obviously, the color of these lizards, as they had a powerful color-changing ability, changed again with the environment and they became exactly the same as the sea.
“Environmental camouflage. Do you want to consider upgrading this skill?” On the front of the Black Shark heavy boat, Feng Luo with Deathwing in his hands, stared at the lizards which were continuously disappearing in his sights, as he thought to himself.
Yesterday, the Level 50 Quasi-Boss Sea Serpent dropped a Force Skills Fusion Chip, and he had not considered which skill to use it on.
The degree of skill improvement after the use of the chip was related to the compatibility of the skill with the player’s Force attribute, because the Force regeneration attribute was more special. Only a portion of his two professional skills had a compatibility level above 50%, and most of these belonged to his Light Armored Warrior skills.
Only two of the Sniper’s career skills exceeded 50%, the higher of which was the environmental camouflage with a 70% compatibility.
After almost understanding the difficulty of obtaining the Force Skills Fusion Chip, Feng Luo was more cautious with the use of this second chip.
“Maybe wait for a while longer, and spectate the situation.” Feng Luo thought for a while, as he still could not make his decision.
“Bang!”
While pondering in his mind, the Deathwing in his hand shot out a sniper bullet, to a distance nearly a hundred meters away, and accurately hitting a piece of “air.”
“-18500!”
A gorgeous golden storm surge figure appeared in the air as an Elite chameleon that was more powerful than its companions was blown away from the Deathwing as it inflicted an explosive effect.
These chameleons were truly powerful with their camouflaging skills, as they could be fully integrated with the ocean’s environment.
The problem is that, although the color has changed, the ripples that formed in the high-speed movement of the sea surface could expose their position.
It was like a player’s stealth that could not be visually discovered, but it was impossible to move without making any slight noise or not stepping on the ground at all. Abilities like environmental camouflage and stealth might be very powerful, but the key was whether they could use it without any weaknesses.
[You killed an Elite Level 60 Hypertoxic Chameleon. Kill contribution: 100%. Experience value gained: 120.]
After the death of the Elite chameleon, it dropped several kinds of white-lighted loot. Two or three low-grade energy crystals, as well as a cap-sized chip-like object.
“Pet chip!” Feng Luo could identify what that chip was instantly.
It was the kind of biochips that he had obtained from that Steel Beetle Boss in Exile Town. These solidified Chips were defective and needed to be repaired before they could be used.
But these were not bad.
A Pet Chip capable of contracting Elites costs at least a few thousand credits in the market.
It was a wasteland that was not visited before, the drops from the monsters were definitely fruitful.
“Pet Chip, hey, my luck is not bad.” Feng Luo was not the only one with luck bursting from his Chip drop.
There are several players with good luck, and obtained Pet Chips.
Those boats close to the beach were driven to the area where the spoils were floating, and some players raised their hands into the sea to obtain their spoils.
The Nine-Star Guild said that all the spoils belonged to the players who obtained them, hence there were no professionals picking up that equipment.
