Chapter 914 - 914 Battle Is About to Begin
914 Battle Is About to Begin
Liu Yan was slightly relieved.
Fortunately, there were not many experts among them.
Thus, in this battle, although Team Origin’s strength was not as good as Team Lighthouse’s squad, they were still not as strong as Team Origin’s.
However, with the help of the Withered Tree Spirit, especially with Liu Yan’s terrifying strength, the pressure on Team Origin wasn’t too high.
Team Origin had to minimize casualties. At the same time, they had to fight Luo Rui and his subordinates and consume as much of Team Lighthouse’s strength as possible.
Only then did Team Lighthouse react and attack Team Origin. Only then would Team Origin withstand Team Lighthouse’s powerful attacks.
The battle plan this time was also simple. Liu Yan would deal with Luo Rui, and the experts of Team Origin would split up and exhaust the ordinary members of Team Lighthouse.
Ordinary members of Team Origin and Withered Tree Spirit would be in charge of stalling the majority of the ordinary members and experts of Team Lighthouse.
Liu Yan noticed that the number of experts in the Team Lighthouse squad led by Luo Rui wasn’t many and felt slightly relieved.
After all, the more experts there were, the greater the pressure on the ordinary members of Team Origin and Withered Tree Spirits. Then, it would lead to a higher possibility of casualties.
If there were only eight experts now, the pressure would reduce.
Murong Xue alone could probably hold off two or three experts.
The rest were split equally between the ordinary members of the Team Origin and the Withered Tree Spirit. Hence, the pressure wasn’t too high.
There were two key things in this battle plan.
The first thing was to scatter Luo Rui and the members of the Team Lighthouse. If they were to gather together, it would be difficult for Liu Yan and the members of Team Origin to make a move.
And the second step was that after they split up, Liu Yan must be able to deal with Luo Rui alone.
Regarding this, Liu Yan was still relatively confident in himself.
Liu Yan had reached the middle stage of 18-star combat strength after many upgrades.
In terms of strength, Liu Yan did not lag behind Luo Rui.
And among opponents with the same combat star level, Liu Yan not only had absolute confidence in defeating Luo Rui, he even had great confidence to kill Luo Rui and not let Luo Rui escape!
At this moment, Liu Yan observed that the distance was almost there. He also flew forward.
The first step of the plan was to ambush the Team Lighthouse, cause some damage to them, and then scatter them.
Liu Yan would also participate in the first step of the ambush. Liu Yan was the key to separating Luo Rui and his team members.
After all, everything that had happened before had already filled Luo Rui with hatred for Liu Yan, including the Magma Demon King, the following conflict, and the last Flame Demon King.
Making use of Luo Rui’s hatred towards Liu Yan was undoubtedly a better way to lure him deeper into the forest.
Not long after Liu Yan flew forward, he arrived at an empty space.
It was an open space but surrounded by dense tall trees.
Those tall trees were the Withered Tree Spirits.
And this was also the trap prepared by Withered Tree Spirits.
The ordinary members of Team Origin were still relatively weak. In order to avoid being detected by the Team Lighthouse squad in advance, they waited at a far place behind.
The ambush here was set up by the Withered Tree Spirits, Liu Yan, and the experts of team Origin. The ordinary members of Team Origin would join the battle later.
With his powerful senses, Liu Yan naturally discovered the experts of Team Origin hiding in the surroundings.
Liu Yan did not hide with them. After all, Liu Yan’s actions were different from theirs.
Liu Yan came to the middle of the open space alone, then used the A-grade skill Shadow Cloak and the B-grade skill Traceless Silence, waiting for Luo Rui and the Lighthouse squad to arrive!
Liu Yan and the experts of the Team Origin had just set up an ambush when the Lighthouse squad led by Luo Rui arrived.
In reality, Luo Rui and the rest were surrounded by Withered Tree Spirits long ago.
It was the depths of the Hallucinatory Forest, a primeval forest full of trees, which was naturally suitable for Withered Tree Spirits.
Back then, even Liu Yan could not differentiate these Withered Tree Spirits at first glance. It was not easy.
Generally, one needed to be powerful and have a high enough spirit energy to distinguish the Withered Tree Spirit.
Luo Rui was leading the Lighthouse squad forward when he suddenly stopped.
Luo Rui immediately sneered. “Interesting. They dared to ambush us. This Team Origin is bold, huh?”
The experts of Team Origin had already carefully concealed themselves. After all, their strength was weaker than Luo Rui and the rest.
At this distance, it was already impossible to hide from the perception of Luo Rui and the rest.
But at this moment, many tall trees in the surroundings suddenly moved, attacking Luo Rui and the Lighthouse squad together.
Although Team Lighthouse discovered the ambush, it was initially within Liu Yan’s expectations.
The experts of Team Origin naturally couldn’t hide from their senses. After all, the difference in strength was there.
Liu Yan needed to wait until he was closer before being discovered.
It was something that the experts of Team Origin had already done. It was also why Liu Yan didn’t allow the experts of Team Origin to set up an ambush here. He wanted to wait until the distance was closer before being discovered by Luo Rui and the experts of the Lighthouse squad.
Suddenly, a ton of Withered Tree Spirits attacked Luo Rui and the Lighthouse squad together.
When Luo Rui saw the situation, he was immediately somewhat surprised.
“This isn’t Withered Tree Spirit’s territory. Why are they attacking us together?”
Luo Rui was puzzled but immediately led the Lighthouse squad to start defending.
Although it was a sudden attack, Luo Rui and the Lighthouse squad had already experienced all kinds of battles. Therefore, they did not panic in the slightest.
The Lighthouse squad instantly formed a defensive formation and defended against the Withered Tree Spirits.
Luo Rui and the eight experts of the Lighthouse squad used their powerful strength and directly began to counterattack.
Under all kinds of skills, the Withered Tree Spirits and the clones fell one after another.
At this moment, the experts of Team Origin also began to attack.
Liu Yan had long known that although the experts of Team Origin were strong, there was still a big gap between them and the experts of Team Lighthouse.
Thus, Liu Yan had already made arrangements for the experts of Team Origin to target the ordinary members of Team Lighthouse.
As for the experts of the Lighthouse squad, they would be restrained by the Withered Tree Spirits.
Although the Withered Tree Spirits’ strength was not as good as theirs, they had the advantage in number.
In addition, the Withered Tree Spirits could use the Clone Technique, so there were even more of them. It was enough to stall the experts of the Lighthouse squad for a long time.
At the same time, the ordinary members of Team Origin, who were two kilometers behind them, also rushed in this direction when they knew the battle had begun.
The battle between Team Origin and Team Lighthouse had just begun.
Just as the battle was in full swing, Liu Yan, who was in the middle of the battlefield, still maintained his stealth state. From time to time, he would avoid the members of the Lighthouse squad passing by, but he did not choose to attack.
At this moment, Liu Yan was already in the middle of the Lighthouse squad, behind many members of the Lighthouse squad.
As long as Liu Yan made a move, many of the unprepared members of the Lighthouse squad would be instantly taken care of by Liu Yan.
However, Liu Yan was not in a hurry to make a move. Liu Yan knew that these ordinary members were not the key. The most important targets for this attack were naturally the experts of the Lighthouse squad.
This time, the Lighthouse squad only had eight experts, excluding Luo Rui.
If Liu Yan could defeat one or two of them, it would help ease the pressure on Team Origin!
