Chapter 85: Chapter 69 God Gives Blessings?_1


    In the gloomy clouds, Night Raven ck Star Gunboat was stealthily weaving through them. It was like a dark ghost, appearing and disappearing in the shadowy cover, reappearing, and then vanishing again.


    “Hmm hmm hmm………”


    Mia, sitting in the cockpit, silently controlled the gunboat before her, hurrying towards the target as she hummed a lighthearted song. As an Artificial Angel Robot, controlling such a gunboat was not a challenge for Mia. She could even manage and control the weapons more precisely than the built-in mecha servants.


    “Target found, locking……”


    As Mia spoke, the screen before her showed the view of the nearby Modheim, and quickly, one area after another was locked. Then……


    “Fire~~!”


    The next moment, several Hellfire missiles whistled out and flew forward.


    No one but Duanmu Huai knew what was happening. Many people didn’t even see the harbinger of destruction, a smoke-trailing monster that had plunged from the sky, because for them, merely focusing on the Ratmen in front of them was already a challenge.


    Therefore, when the violent explosion and fire rose from the ground, everyone was dumbfounded.


    The Hellfire missile is a kind of air-to-ground missile with a solid fuel core and a high-explosive warhead, primarily used against armored units. Logically, this is not suitable for dealing with Ratmen – after all, they rely more on numbers rather than quality, and their armor doesn’t require these missiles that can prate star tank armor.


    But Duanmu Huai was not merely nning to eliminate these Ratmen.


    “Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom!!!!!”


    A series of fires erupted around the temple. In the intense explosion, the dpidated houses were blown to smithereens. The ground also sted apart, creating a deep crater. With continuous bombardment, these craters connected to form a U-shaped moat that seemed to envelop the temple. However, the moat was filled with raging mes, not water.


    Yes, this was Duanmu Huai’s goal. Killing Ratmen was meaningless, and they were better at tunneling underground. Therefore, the best way to stop the Ratmen’s attack was to directly prevent them from tunneling into the temple. Nothing could hinder the Ratmen’s further actions better than a moat over ten meters wide filled with impassable fire.


    Of course, bombing a city might not be a good idea, but since the city was already in this state, Duanmu Huai wasn’t worried about mistakenly bombing innocent civilians.


    However, clearly, others didn’t know this. When they saw the fire rising from the ground, the earth trembling as if it were the end of the world, everyone was shaking. But when they saw the Ratmen being blown to bits by the fire and bombardment, retreating one after another, these people started shouting “Praise Sigma”… thinking that they had escaped disaster thanks to the protection of a deity…


    Whatever, anything goes.


    Anyway, after the bombing, the Ratmen retreated in disarray, other forces remained stationary, either paralyzed with fear or nning something else. Regardless, the crowd could finally rx a bit and rest for a while.


    “Phew………”


    Duanmu Huai walked onto the terrace and sat down, looking at the Modheim before him. Ogis was beside him, the doll-like girl had returned to her original look and was reading a book under the light. Even Feiya had calmed down a lot – she had previously charged into the group of Ratmen, ughtering them before she was surrounded and pierced through the heart by their swords, killing her instantly. It seemed to have somewhat satisfied her.


    Merlot asked Duanmu Huai to open the door back to the Holy City, saying that she felt the current weapons were not enough to fight the enemy. She nned to ask Kukulu to upgrade them a bit. Meanwhile, Lorena was helping treat others, after all, many people were hurt in the previous Ratmen attack. As a priest of the Holy Church, she naturally wouldn’t ignore these people.


    Duanmu Huai was not worried about Lorena’s safety since the ughter Puppet was covertly monitoring her.


    However, all the Ratmen they killed barely gave any experience……


    Looking at the experience bar before him, Duanmu Huai heaved a sigh. Star Ocean Online game design does not encourage yers to grind monsters, so the experience gained from killing monsters of the same or lower level is very small. Only ying monsters above their level would give a bit more experience. This is to avoid yers exploiting loopholes. After all, if they could grind monsters, they could simply control a warship in low orbit and find a popted area for orbital bombardment. That would essentially amount to gaining experience without lifting a finger.


    Based on Duanmu Huai’s current level, finding enemies of the same level on this would require facing the elites and leaders of each power, and even higher, the demons – but avoid challenging these types of enemies if possible.


    “Thump Thump Thump Thump!!”


    Just then, a flurry of hurried footsteps were heard. Duanmu Huai turned to look and saw Lorena running onto the terrace. Seeing Duanmu Huai, her eyes lit up.
