Chapter 916 Raid
Luo Rui gritted his teeth and said, "No, we can't retreat like this. No matter how many people Team Origin and Withered Tree Spirits have, they are not our match. You guys maintain your formation and fight. There won't be any problems. I'll find Liu Yan and get rid of him. Without a captain, Team Origin will collapse in an instant. At that time, it will be easy to get rid of them!"
The experts of the Lighthouse squad looked at each other when they heard this. They all knew in their hearts that Luo Rui was acting on impulse.
But they still believed Luo Rui. After all, Luo Rui had formidable strength.
Although the Team Origin and Withered Tree Spirits had a lot of people, in terms of strength, they were far inferior to Luo Rui.
With Luo Rui's strength, it was long enough to ignore the difference in numbers.
And as long as Luo Rui defeated Liu Yan, Team Origin would lose their captain and become unorganized.
When the time came, they could destroy Team Origin much easier.
The experts of the Lighthouse squad knew this plan was a little risky, but it was indeed feasible.
Moreover, they did not dare to disobey Luo Rui either. Luo Rui was insistent on doing so at this time, so they could only do as he said.
"Alright, captain. Don't worry."
"It's still easy for us to hold on for a while."
"Vice-captain, leave this to us."
...
The experts of the Lighthouse squad agreed.
Then, these experts of the Lighthouse squad also split up and took action.
The Lighthouse squad quickly shrank back into a defensive formation and started fighting.
Although they couldn't push forward and finish off Team Origin, it was undoubtedly safer and more stable for the Lighthouse squad.
At this moment, the ordinary members of Team Origin had arrived. Together with the experts of Team Origin and many Withered Tree Spirits, they had surrounded the entire Lighthouse squad and besieged them.
However, the difference in strength caused the effect of Team Origin's siege on the Lighthouse squad to be ordinary.
At the beginning of the raid, the experts of Team Origin had taken care of a portion of the ordinary members of the Lighthouse squad.
After the Lighthouse squad reacted, they shrank their formation and defended.
It was already difficult for Team Origin to cause any effective damage to the Lighthouse squad.
Even though it was only a small team from the Lighthouse squad, Team Origin's almost full strength combined with many Withered Tree Spirits was still not their match.
It showed a huge difference in strength between Team Origin and Team Lighthouse.
Team Origin's attack was being resisted by the Lighthouse squad, and their attacks were delayed. At this moment, Liu Yan, who had been in stealth mode, had already arrived at the center of Team Lighthouse.
Liu Yan knew that the time for him to act had arrived.
Liu Yan maintained his invisibility state and moved toward an expert of the Lighthouse squad.
In this Lighthouse squad, Luo Rui was the strongest, reaching 18-star combat strength. The ordinary members were all 10-star and 11-star combat strength.
In addition, the Lighthouse squad had eight experts, two experts with 15-star combat strength and six experts with 14-star combat strength.
Liu Yan knew that after he lured Luo Rui away, the remaining members of the Lighthouse squad would mainly be a few experts who would be harder to deal with.
After all, in Team Origin, only Allen Smith and the other two were the strongest. They had reached 13-star combat strength.
The rest of the experts only had 12-star combat strength.
With the help of Withered Tree Spirits, Team Origin might be able to hold off the experts of Team Lighthouse with a 14-star combat strength.
However, an expert with 15-star combat strength was a little difficult for Team Origin to defend against. The pressure was too great.
Therefore, Liu Yan knew that the main target of his surprise attack this time was the two experts with 15-star combat strength in the Lighthouse squad. The second target was the six experts with 14-star combat strength. He would take care of as many as he could.
Every time he defeated one more person, it would reduce the pressure on Team Origin to fight against the Lighthouse squad. Naturally, things would go much smoother.
If Liu Yan revealed his full strength, he could even finish off these eight experts in a short period.
However, Liu Yan was still unable to display his full strength.
Liu Yan was clear Luo Rui would fly into a rage if Luo Rui discovered that he had 18-star combat strength. It would definitely arouse Luo Rui's vigilance and very likely immediately retreat.
This way, Liu Yan and Team Origin would not successfully deal with Luo Rui and Lighthouse squad. It would be utterly disadvantageous for the subsequent battle between Origin Territory and Lighthouse Territory.
Hence, Liu Yan had to display some of his strength in this ambush. He wanted to deal with some of the experts from the Lighthouse squad and relieve some of the pressure on the Team Origin.
But at the same time, Liu Yan could not reveal too much strength to arouse Luo Rui's vigilance.
He had to deal with as many experts of the Lighthouse squad as possible without alerting Luo Rui.
After some simple thought, Liu Yan decided to display his combat strength at the peak of 15-star.
It was enough to ambush and finish off the few experts of the Lighthouse squad. The strength Liu Yan revealed was not very strong, so they should be able to successfully attract Luo Rui over.
After thinking about everything, Liu Yan approached the position where his combat strength was already 15-star.
The S-grade weapon, Blade of the Night, had already appeared in Liu Yan's hand. It emitted cold killing intent.
Liu Yan's surprise attack this time could only reveal the peak of 15-star combat strength. But he needed to kill in one strike, instantly killing the expert with 15-star combat strength in front of him. This way, he could smoothly carry out the follow-up surprise attack and lure Luo Rui. The difficulty was still a bit.
Fortunately, Liu Yan was skilled in the assassination. This operation was not too difficult for him.
Liu Yan came to the side of this 15-star combat strength expert and prepared to take action.
At this moment, this 15-star expert from the Lighthouse squad was using a giant battle axe in his hand that was as tall as a person. He continuously waved it and attacked.
Many Withered Tree Spirits died in his hands.
He stood in the middle of the battlefield, facing a large number of attacks from Team Origin, but he only suffered some light injuries. His defense was extremely strong.
When facing a large number of Withered Tree Spirits, he could continuously kill them one by one. His attack power was equally powerful.
It was obvious that his physical strength was terrifying.
Liu Yan did not dare to lower his guard when he saw this. He had to pursue a one-hit kill.
The S-grade skill, Power of the Earth, was activated. Liu Yan's strength immediately received a significant increase.
Liu Yan felt that his strength had almost reached the peak of 15-star combat strength.
Liu Yan had other enhancement skills. After using them, his strength would be further increased, and the success rate of his surprise attack would be even higher.
However, if that were the case, it would also allow Liu Yan's strength to exceed 15-star combat strength instantly. It would be somewhat contrary to Liu Yan's original intention for this sneak attack.
