Judging from the number of Luo Ze's troops, their intent is obvious.
If they can't solve the problem, then they'll solve the people creating the problem. It's a simple, crude, yet direct approach.
Yang Yu anticipated that Luo Ze Empire might plan something against him, but he didn't expect they'd set an ambush here.
emmm...
To be honest, my actions are erratic and without pattern, going wherever I please.
Even I don't know where I'm heading next, how do they know I'm coming? This ambush is pure nonsense!
Opening the panel, Yang Yu confirmed his attributes. His level has reached Level 127, with significant growth in all attributes. His agility alone is nearing two thousand.
To make a good impression on subordinates or superiors, Yang Yu invested some attribute points into charm, not knowing if it would be effective. Despite not being much, it barely surpassed five hundred.
Investing too much in charm brings some issues.
Yang Yu noticed more and more people looking at him with strange gazes recently. He'd rather not get involved with anyone.
Now, the only glaring point on the panel is Yang Yu's measly Luck value.
"So that's it, truly a high-stakes gamble."
Seeing the Luck value, Yang Yu realized that those Luo Ze Elites had no idea they'd come to this city and instead trusted someone's luck and intuition to set up an ambush.
Though it's equally absurd, attempting it under constant defeat isn't a bad idea.
If it fails, it doesn't cost anything, and if it succeeds, the benefits are immeasurable.
Looking ahead, the magic barrier resembled a giant blue bowl, overturned before the city.
"This barrier is quite solid. I know the underlying principles of barrier operation... I'll try to create a hole in the wall. I need you to buy me some time."
Bai Jin spoke while attempting to dismantle the magic power constituting the barrier.
"No, Mu Jin, prioritize combat. The opponents won't give us time to breathe; follow what I taught you."
Pulling out the Flame Dragon Shield and a regular rare longsword, Yang Yu leaped off Lotcar.
With Aslit's charge, Luo Ze elites of different professions closed in from all directions.
The other side extended the battle line, yet Yang Yu and his group still had the strength to fight.
Just as he landed, Yang Yu launched an assault on the nearest Aslit.
Sliding his sword into its sheath, Aslit rotated the hilt ninety degrees, activating the secret technique of the Broken Wind Style,
"[Wind-breaking Style. Secret Technique. Formless]"
The speed at which the blade was drawn and swung was too fast to see. It appeared as if the sword was drawn, but in truth, it had already been sheathed; in a brief instant, multiple slashes carrying invisible sword qi pierced through.
Raising the somewhat heavy Flame Dragon Shield, Yang Yu let the slashes collide with it. Meeting the conditions, he instantly activated the Flame Dragon Shield's effect, causing the shield's gap to spew a torrent of scorching flames.
"[Broken Wind Style. Absolute Breath]"
Drawing the sheathed long knife, the sword qi released by Aslit cut a path through the flames.
Black hair fluttered, and small footsteps shifted. Aslit darted out from the flames, circling to Yang Yu's side, thrusting the long knife.
Yang Yu shoved the half-body Flame Dragon Shield into the ground and stood firm, without dodging, consecutively using [Steel Body] and [Copper Wall Iron Curtain].
An orange stream of light flashed across the sword blade. Just as Aslit's sword was about to pierce his chest, Yang Yu sidestepped reluctantly.
Aslit's long knife jabbed below Yang Yu's armpit, inflicting damage. Yang Yu reversed a pull, [Double-sided Slash] brushing past Aslit's left shoulder against the mask.
Immediately after, Yang Yu lifted his right foot, hooking it at Aslit's side abdomen, kicking her several meters away.
In the snow, Aslit's feet carved out two deep tracks. Stabilizing herself awkwardly, the mask on her face shattered into pieces, revealing a surprised, incredulous, angry, hateful expression, staring fixedly at Yang Yu's eyes like a venomous snake.
The man who last winter had overwhelmed her, using dirty tricks to shame her into retreat, now in a direct confrontation, effortlessly made her suffer.
Aslit had to admit that this man's growth was astonishing. Now vastly different, he might be able to face her genius-reputed sister in battle.
Yet simultaneously, Aslit did not want to admit that despite training day and night for so long, she still couldn't measure up to the contemptible man before her.
Aslit harbored one belief in her heart: she must defeat Yang Yu by strength.
If she doesn't defeat this guy, there's no way to defeat him; if she doesn't defeat this guy, what face does she have to meet the empire that nurtured her; if she doesn't defeat this guy, it's a trampling of her efforts.
Raising her sword and baring her teeth, she hadn't even initiated a second attack when a dazzling magic descended from the sky, exploding beside Yang Yu.
"Stay out of my way."
This guy must be defeated by me, must be defeated by me.
Why can't things ever go my way?
Precisely because people like him exist, I've never obtained what I desire.
He must die today! With my own two hands, I'll bury him personally!
Suddenly, a voice echoed in Aslit's mind, "Aslit, don't forget the purpose of this operation, don't forget who nurtured you!"
"Shut up! Stop blabbering! That guy is mine to defeat; we already agreed on this! Instead of shooting at him, why don't you blow up his comrades!"
Facing the smoke induced by the magic explosion, Aslit spotted Yang Yu's figure and attacked again.
Kui Yi, tasked with liaising with Aslit, revealed a faint smile inwardly cursing at Aslit. Stupid woman, losing her mind again. An uncooperative and violent woman like her is no match for Miss Jin; she's just a pest.
"How is it?" Changliu River inquired of Kui Yi while charging towards Lotcar.
Kui Yi smiled slightly, "She says no problem, should be able to hold them, and will help us attack when there's an opening. You can proceed confidently."
Changliu River hesitantly asked, "Really? Tell her if she can't hold it, I'll take over."
Kui Yi grinned, "I'll notify her right away, already engaging the colorful-haired masked man's comrades. Be cautious."
"Don't hesitate; if they don't surrender, instantly slay them without giving them room to retaliate."
Wielding a giant hammer, Changliu River released a beam of Holy Light from the heavy hammerhead, causing protective light shields to drift over Luo Ze Elite charging towards Lotcar.
The skill's name is [Doron Love Shield], capable of creating up to ten shields equal to 50% of the user's maximum health.
Such a powerful support skill requires considerable preparation time, but Changliu River, using the tool[Holy Light Acceleration Stone], can release it without channeling.
Tools capable of reducing skill preparation time are extremely precious.
The Holy Light generated by [Holy Light Acceleration Stone] per day only supports releasing three large skills without preparation time, and Changliu River has already used two of them, leaving only one quickly usable large skill.
How well the last skill is used will become the key to this battle.
