Chapter 917 Lure
Chapter 917 Lure
Under the enhancement of the S-grade skill Power of the Earth, Liu Yan's strength had reached a terrifying level.
Liu Yan raised his S-grade weapon, Blade of the Night, and activated his B-grade skill Backstab.
In the next moment, Liu Yan suddenly appeared behind the other party and stabbed down.
The timing of Liu Yan's surprise attack was spot on. It was the moment when the other party was brandishing the giant battle axe to attack.
At this moment, the other party had just exerted force on the Withered Tree Spirit in front of him.
Even if he managed to react, he could not instantly retract his strength. He was unable to respond to Liu Yan's sudden attack!
This expert of the Lighthouse squad with 15-star combat strength immediately felt a chill run down his spine, and he also felt a monstrous killing intent.
He immediately realized that something was wrong and knew that danger had arrived.
However, at this critical point, he could not make any response.
At the same time, Liu Yan's Blade of the Night had pierced through.
Blade of the Night had a 20% increase in Critical Strike Chance. Liu Yan's overall Critical Chance had reached 60%, which was already quite high.
This attack also triggered a critical hit, dealing 200% damage.
Under the Critical Strike Damage, this expert of the Lighthouse squad with a 15-star combat strength was killed by Liu Yan and fell to the ground.
The huge battle axe in his hand flew into the air due to the inertia of his strength just now.
"Ambush!"
"D*mn, how did this person sneak into our team?"
"Old Ye was instantly killed!"
"What kind of strength does this person have? He can kill Old Ye in an instant!"
"Ambush! Be careful of your back!"
...
It was only at this moment that some of the members of the Lighthouse squad noticed Liu Yan's figure. They reacted one after another, and many people in the surroundings rushed toward Liu Yan.
When Liu Yan saw this, he was not afraid and attacked.
Another expert with 15-star combat strength was on the other side of the team. Liu Yan had already appeared, so he naturally didn't have time to deal with him.
Since they couldn't deal with another 15-star expert in time, they might as well deal with a few 14-star experts. This way, they could help Team Origin in the subsequent battles and relieve a lot of pressure.
Other than the ordinary members of the Lighthouse squad who were close to him, Liu Yan counterattacked.
As for the other ordinary members of the Lighthouse squad, Liu Yan did not bother with them at all. He only looked for the experts with 14-star combat strength. At the same time, Luo Rui noticed Liu Yan from far away.
"Liu Yan? I was looking for you, but you dared to show yourself!" Luo Rui's expression was ice-cold as he immediately rushed over.
Liu Yan brandished his S-grade weapon, Blade of the Night. Even though he was hiding his strength at this moment, he only revealed the combat strength of peak 15-star.
However, it was still enough to crush the ordinary members of the Lighthouse squad. At this moment, there was no pressure.
Liu Yan finished off two experts with 14-star combat strength from the Lighthouse squad instantly.
Liu Yan noticed that Luo Rui was rapidly approaching from afar. He knew that there was no time left, so he stopped.
The SSS-grade special equipment, Wings of the Wind God, was waved. Liu Yan flew out of the middle of the Lighthouse squad and fled in the direction of the depths of the Hallucinatory Forest.
In this surprise attack, Liu Yan had taken care of one 15-star and two 14-star experts from Team Lighthouse. He had already helped relieve a lot of pressure on Team Origin.
He believed that Team Origin and the Withered Tree Spirits should be enough to deal with the remaining members of the Lighthouse squad according to the previous plan.
And Liu Yan's remaining main task was to lure Luo Rui over and then finish him off with all his might!
Luo Rui watched Liu Yan leave, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
"As expected, he had hidden his strength previously. With 13-star combat strength, even if he has a special skill, it's not enough to escape our senses. So he has 15-star combat strength, close to 16-star. But even so, it's still not enough."
Luo Rui sneered and chased after Liu Yan.
Luo Rui was also a little surprised at this time. Liu Yan was a newcomer who had just entered the sixth floor of the Tower's Wind Barrier. How could he have peak 15-star combat strength?
Previously, when he thought that Liu Yan only had 13-star combat strength, he already felt that Liu Yan was very talented.
After all, when Luo Rui and Luo Feng first entered the Wind Barrier, they were only around 11-star combat strength. Liu Yan was already much stronger than them at the same time.
But Luo Rui did not expect that Liu Yan's true combat strength had already reached peak 15-star.
Such talent was indeed a little terrifying.
At the same time, Luo Rui was even more determined to get rid of Liu Yan.
Luo Rui was clear that Liu Yan, who possessed such terrifying talent, would develop and grow for a while. His strength would grow quickly. By then, he would become a dangerous threat to the Lighthouse Territory!
In this battle, he had to finish off Liu Yan!
Luo Rui thought this in his heart and hurriedly chased after Liu Yan.
Liu Yan, who was in front, quickly left.
Although the surrounding environment was complicated, Liu Yan was already familiar with it, and the journey was smooth.
If Liu Yan wanted to finish off Luo Rui, he naturally needed to bring him to a suitable location.
Otherwise, if the battle here was too loud, it was very likely that a large area of the forest would be destroyed.
In addition, if they entered the depths of the Hallucinatory Forest, Withered Tree Spirit King could also help Liu Yan and defeat Luo Rui easily, completely keeping Luo Rui alive!
Luo Rui was currently following closely behind Liu Yan.
Even though the environment was complicated, Luo Rui still had the terrifying 18-star combat strength. Hence, he could keep up with Liu Yan.
After following for a while, Luo Rui also realized something was wrong.
After all, when they were at the Flaming Mountain previously, Luo Rui had witnessed Liu Yan's powerful concealment skill.
Back then, even Luo Feng, who was stronger than Liu Yan, couldn't find Liu Yan in such a short time. It was clear how powerful Liu Yan's concealment skills were.
Even before Liu Yan launched the surprise attack just now, he had been in a stealth state. Luo Rui and the few experts of the Lighthouse squad did not detect it in the slightest.
In this situation, if Liu Yan wanted to escape, he could have turned invisible and fled. However, Liu Yan did not. He had other motives.
But Luo Rui snorted coldly and did not take it seriously.
Luo Rui had already faintly guessed that there were traps and ambushes prepared by Liu Yan waiting for him ahead.
However, Luo Rui relied on his terrifying 18-star combat strength and did not take Liu Yan seriously. He continued to chase after him.
The main reason was that the Lighthouse squad had suffered a huge loss just now. Luo Rui was clear that if he could not defeat Liu Yan, this operation would fail.
Luo Rui did not want to fail.
When Luo Rui knew that Liu Yan might have set up an ambush, but still followed closely.
All of this stemmed from Luo Rui's confidence in his strength.
Liu Yan brought Luo Rui all the way deep into the Hallucinatory Forest, passing through towering trees. They continued to go deeper until they reached a huge open space. Eventually, Liu Yan stopped.
