542 Improved Half Masks

"Please pull the red angled pulley at the side of your parachute pack in five, four, three..." Shi Zuo was instructed by the half mask he got at the start of this special mission.

Similar to the envisioned Mooogle Glasses, the mask was a visor filled with tons of information as if he was wearing an augmented reality headset. Shi Zuo felt like it was virtual reality, but it really wasn't.

They knew the dimensional instance was real and not a mere illusion. It was a pocket of time and space that separated itself from the 'real world'. If one were to stay in the dimensional instance, there would be no significant difference except the perception of time.

Of all the information portrayed, the most important segment Shi Zuo needed to take note off was the estimated health of his shown at the top right corner of the visor. The health of the Squad Members was also indicated right below of the cultivator's health bar.

Also, the bottom left corner had multiple icons which would light up when Shi Zuo glanced at it. The half mask was equipped with vision tracking and a voice recognition unit that enabled the cultivators to communicate with the visor in order to receive the information they needed at a moment's notice.

As of now, the half mask was instructing Shi Zuo on how to open his parachute. It even highlighted the part which needed to be pulled to get the parachute working. Of course, this half mask could not be operated without Yun in the vicinity. Removing the System out of the equation and the visor was as useful as a radio without reception.

Aside from the Squad function, the System was simultaneously learning and gathering information on the visors through this 'experimental' instance as well. Jin figured he might as well try the things that needed to be done while assisting his minions on Farming World.

Still, even though the information was presented all around the visors, it also had the feature to dim the HUD (Heads Up Display) interface and allow the cultivators to fight without obstruction on their current peripheral vision.

Jin did not want the cultivators to lose because they could not see their enemy due to the interference of the HUD interface. Other than that, the upgraded half mask was a welcome addition to the other cultivators going into battle.

Shi Zuo's parachute opened, and he managed to steer his parachute towards somewhere safe alongside his squad mates. Luo Bo was right behind him by about 40 metres or so, but the trouble came when the Demon Rats saw Xiong Da and Ruo Ying's descent.

The ranged Demon Rats immediately directed their weapons towards them and shot indiscriminately. There was no way Shi Zuo or Luo Bo could help them and communication were not possible since they were too far apart. (Thankfully, they had yet to encounter the Steam Tech copters the goblins saw during their scouting missions.)

"Control, can I communicate with Xiong Da or Ruo Ying?!" Shi Zuo asked in a panic, but the half mask was unable to do so without the aid of the magpies. (The visors introduced themselves initially as Control Supports which was why Shi Zuo and the rest called them as such too.)

"Damn, if we only had the magpies!" Shi Zuo sighed, but there was no time for him to be concerned about the other couple as he and Luo Bo had also been noticed by the Demon Rats. Luo Bo went in front of him and immediately shot an arrow at them.

The rabbit cultivator did not waste time with a regular arrow shot. Instead, it was one infused with tremendous chi which Luo Bo had been storing ever since she descended from the plane.

"Intermediate Bow Art! Lightning Rabbit Dashing Arrow!." The arrow sped through the open fields like a burst of lightning, and upon hitting one of the Demon Rats, it zigzagged through the opponents. Like a rabbit dashing through the grasslands to evade its predators, the arrows struck the rats who never seen such a magical attack before.

Not only the demon rats electrocuted by the attack, but the steam tech they were using, explodes from the overcharge. Most were minor explosions except for those who were carrying Steam Tech that had a larger piece of Litoride on them. Those unlucky ones Demon Rats exploded into smithereens, creating an impact large enough that took out their surrounding Demon Rats.

The series of explosions gave Shi Zuo and Luo Bo enough time to dash with their chi infused boots as they created some distance for safety. They then noticed a winged dark knight flying towards them. Shi Zuo almost attacked him when he got nearer, but Luo Bo ordered him to not harm it, indicating that he was the allies that Yun talked about.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

"Are you the reinforcement our master sent?" The Dark Templar asked as he gracefully landed right beside them, and they nodded their heads when they saw his wings spread and protected them from some stray projectiles from the Demon Rats.

"While meagre in quantity, you guys sure pack a punch." The Dark Templar introduced himself as Mou, one of the lieutenants working under Commander Zieg. "We are temporarily moving out for a retreat. We've done enough damage for the day. If you wish to come with us, we can formulate a battle strategy together."

"What?" Luo Bo said as she stretched herself a little with a new arrow in hand. "Retreat? I am just getting started."

"… I see. Full of energy. Go on then. We will reorganise ourselves, and if luck has it, we might meet on the battlefield within the same day." The Dark Templar bowed as a slight tremor could be felt from where they were at.

Unable to defend himself in midair, Xiong Da ripped off his damaged parachute and went to perform the improved version of his Grand Slam Fissure, which he had finally mastered throughout the months of training in Jin's dungeons. Previously it was a Hippo style, but now, Xiong Da managed to combine it with his Warclub, making it more deadly as it was now considered as a Weapon Arts.

He and his Warclub were like a raging meteor that slammed into the ground, producing a shockwave deadly enough for pieces of the ground to fly up and kill dozens of Demon Rats that had been shooting at him. Although Ruo Ying's parachute was thankfully not too damaged by the ranged attacks, she was nearly blown away by the impact of Xiong Da's Grand Slam Fissure.

Thus, she had no choice but to execute her Intermediate Chain Arts, Descending Chains of the Egret to grab onto an Ogre Demon Rat. Her newly bought chains extended like there would be no end to thanks to one of Octofussy's newest inscription creations.

As the chains wrapped around the Ogre Demon Rat, the chains shrunk and reduced in length, allowing Ruo Ying to fly towards the Ogre Demon Rat and give it a kick towards its face. It caused a critical neck fracture but also enabled Ruo Ying to land safely. Their squadmates, on the other hand, landed right beside her without much aid from the parachutes.

"Time for some pest extermination." Ruo Ying pushed her half Egret mask up a little as she saw the Demon Rats trying to surround her and Xiong Da due to their flashy entrance.
