Survival of the Nation: I Can Specify the Items That Will Drop
Chapter 414: Night Assassin
Su Yurou had been keeping her eyes on Jiang Zhaoyue's health bar from behind. Seeing the number, she immediately raised her bone healing staff high — 【 Healing Spell 】.
A vibrant green light descended upon Jiang Zhaoyue, +546.
The fifth spear strike came crashing down from above. Jiang Zhaoyue gritted her teeth and raised her silver moon sky spear to block. "Clang!" She was knocked downward by the impact, falling three meters.
Jiang Zhaoyue spun her silver moon sky spear half a circle in her hands, stabilizing her stance once more.
But her breathing was already becoming ragged; Lin Feng's attacks were too heavy, each strike leaving her palm numb.
Jiang Yelan emerged once more from the flank, her shadow moon blade hacking toward the back of Lin Feng's neck.
Lin Feng did not turn back; he slightly tilted his body, letting the blade edge graze past his shoulder armor, and countered with a horizontal sweep of his spear.
Jiang Yelan used Shadow Flash to retreat, but since the cooldown for her Phantom Flying Blade wasn't up yet, she had no choice but to temporarily widen the distance.
Lin Feng did not pursue Jiang Yelan, turning instead toward Jiang Zhaoyue.
While still in mid-air, he raised his left hand, and five bolts of 【 Blazing Spear Light 】 shot out like meteors, raining down overwhelmingly upon Jiang Zhaoyue.
Jiang Zhaoyue raised her spear to block; four bolts were deflected by the shaft, while one pierced her chest armor, -446.
Her health bar dropped by another chunk.
"Retreat!" Jiang Zhaoyue shouted sharply, pulling back to create distance.
She needed time to adjust, needed healing, and needed to reorganize her offensive.
Su Yurou's 【 Healing Spell 】 immediately descended, wrapping green light around Jiang Zhaoyue's wounds, +546.
The cooldown for Lin Feng's 【 Meteor Flash 】 still had over ten seconds left, but he didn't need to wait.
He flew directly toward Su Yurou, accelerating to seventy meters per second, the golden light of his zhutian war boots leaving a long, thin trail in the air.
Jiang Yelan intercepted from the flank, her shadow moon blade hacking toward Lin Feng's ribs.
Lin Feng did not slow down, taking the hit head-on; the blade struck his golden armor, -405, Poison Blade Tempering failed to trigger.
Jiang Yelan's attack failed to stop him.
Lin Feng charged to within fifteen meters of Su Yurou, raised his left hand, and fired three bolts of 【 Blazing Spear Light 】 in a fan shape, covering Su Yurou's shield.
Su Yurou bit her lip and retreated rapidly, running Spell Deflection at full power.
The first spear bolt was deflected, the second was also deflected, but the third nailed into the shield; the shield shook violently, and cracks began to spread.
Lin Feng gave her no chance to breathe, putting away his spear light and pressing the attack.
His Wildfire Spear struck repeatedly—five times in one second—each strike precisely hitting a crack in the shield.
The first strike hit the pale red shield of the Recovery Belt and was deflected; the cracks widened, but it did not shatter.
The second strike followed immediately, and the pale red shield shattered with a boom, turning into fine specks of light that drifted away.
The third strike hit the blue Shield Mage shield, but the tip was deflected, leaving only a shallow mark.
The fourth strike went deep, the tip sinking three inches into the shield, with cracks spreading from the point of impact.
The fifth strike pierced in from the side, and the blue shield finally shattered, scattering pale blue specks of light.
Su Yurou had only one shield layer left: the purple set shield, with 2500 absorption points, the deepest in color and the thickest.
She took a deep breath to steady herself, and the vibrant green light on her bone healing staff glowed to its limit.
But Lin Feng did not immediately launch an attack.
Because Jiang Zhaoyue and Jiang Yelan had arrived simultaneously.
Jiang Zhaoyue had chased from the rear, thrusting her silver moon sky spear toward Lin Feng's back.
She didn't dare use Silver Moon Spear Radiance again; Lin Feng's evasion rate was too high, and ranged attacks were easily dodged. She chose melee combat, using her spear tip to force Lin Feng to turn and defend.
Lin Feng turned, and the Wildfire Spear collided once again with the silver moon sky spear.
"This won't work, we can't win like this," Jiang Zhaoyue quickly judged in her heart.
Lin Feng's evasion rate was too high; at least half of her and Jiang Yelan's attacks would be dodged.
Jiang Yelan also crept over from the flank, flipping the shadow moon blade in her hand.
She looked at Jiang Zhaoyue; their eyes met in the air for an instant, and they nodded simultaneously.
Jiang Yelan activated 【 Nightfall Assassin 】, giving her attacks a 20% chance to blind.
She attacked three times in a row, and the third finally triggered the blind effect. However, a flash of golden light emanated from Lin Feng, and his Mental Barrier instantly negated the negative status, leaving his vision clear as usual.
Jiang Yelan's expression changed slightly, a flicker of astonishment crossing her eyes.
Seeing her make such an expression for the first time, Lin Feng couldn't help but slow his movements by a beat.
Jiang Zhaoyue's eyes sharpened, seizing the opportunity — 【 Silver Light Cross Slash 】! Her silver moon sky spear transformed into two silver-white beams of light, precisely slicing across Lin Feng's waist and ribs, leaving two deep marks, -400, -600.
Lin Feng's health bar dropped by a chunk, visible to the naked eye.
Lin Feng looked down at the marks on his waist and ribs, the corner of his mouth twitching. When he looked up again, he met Jiang Zhaoyue's gaze directly.
Her eyes flashed slightly, and she tilted her mouth, as if to say: "Who told you to be so ruthless with those shots just now?"
Lin Feng inwardly complained: "Do you two have any martial ethics? We agreed on a spar, yet one uses blind and the other Backstab—your coordination is quite something."
He shook his head, having no time to overthink, as Jiang Yelan's shadow moon blade had already arrived again.
He activated 【 Graceful Shadow 】 — an afterimage clone was left in place, while his true body entered a state of wind concealment, ignoring anti-stealth.
Jiang Yelan hacked twice with her shadow moon blade, both strikes landing on the clone's chest armor.
Jiang Zhaoyue also followed up with a strike from the front, her silver moon sky spear piercing through the clone's abdomen.
The clone's health hit rock bottom and it shattered with a boom, dissipating into pale golden specks of light.
"It's a clone!" Jiang Zhaoyue's expression changed abruptly, and she shouted sharply, "Yu Rou, look out!"
Both of them turned simultaneously, flying with all their might toward Su Yurou.
But Lin Feng, in his stealth state, had already pounced toward Su Yurou.
【 Beacon Fire City 】, a blazing meteor spear light shot out from the void, thrusting in a straight line directly toward Su Yurou's shield.
Su Yurou had no time to dodge, running Spell Deflection at full power.
The spear light collided with the shield, exploding in a blinding burst of fire.
The knockback effect sent Su Yurou drifting backward several meters, and a debuff reducing block success rate by 50% was applied to her.
In the instant the spear light fired, Lin Feng had already activated his second dash, appearing from stealth less than three meters in front of Su Yurou.
The Wildfire Spear in his hand struck repeatedly—five times in one second—each strike precisely hitting the shield.
The fifth strike pierced out, the tip penetrating the final layer of defense of the purple shield, and deep purple specks of light scattered like shattered glass.
Su Yurou clutched her bone healing staff, hovering in the air while panting heavily.
All three layers of her shields were shattered, and her forehead was covered in sweat, but the corners of her mouth curved upward, as if she were laughing at herself for failing to block despite giving it her all.
Jiang Zhaoyue and Jiang Yelan chased from behind, and seeing that Su Yurou's shield had already shattered, they both stopped.
The two exchanged a look; there was unwillingness in their eyes, but also a sense of relief that they had "done their best."
Jiang Zhaoyue slung her silver moon sky spear back over her shoulder and shook her head; Jiang Yelan sheathed her blade without a word.
