Chapter 630: Behold My Mercy Strike!

“Yeah.” Lin Yiyi stared straight ahead, whispering into the air.

In fact, she had already hung up on Longjing Tea.

She maintained her composure during the conversation to avoid alerting the assassins.

She focused all her attention on her surroundings to sense their movements.

In a place out of the opponent’s sight…

Lin Yiyi’s silver bracelet, hidden in her left sleeve, began to shimmer with a gentle, lake-like azure radiance.

Directly below the bracelet was a leather wristband inlaid with gemstones. It fitted tightly to the bracelet, preventing it from quickly slipping off.

The dark blue curse pattern quietly and slowly overflowed from the curse vessel, spreading in the wristband and lighting up each gemstone.

“Yes. Well, that’s right…” Lin Yiyi continued to answer in a low voice, pretending to be on the phone.

At the same time, she relaxed her shoulders and closed her eyes slightly.

As one of the opals in her cuff shattered silently, a golden-green halo slowly emerged from the bottom of Lin Yiyi’s pupils.

Edict School, [Comprehensive Scan].

…Good, I can sense it now.

After Lin Yiyi closed her eyes, the originally pitch-black vision was slowly painted with a light gray background.

The ability outlined the three-dimensional model of her room.

In the light gray 3D model, four red human figures slowly approached Lin Yiyi.

Like the players, it was a team composed of four people.

Lin Yiyi’s perception of one of them was blurry. The dark red outline was faint. The strange energy that hid their presence appeared from that person.

Is this a space warfare mothership? He even makes everyone around him invisible…

There was no doubt that that person should be the team leader.

Therefore, it was safe to presume that the person releasing the strange energy to cover their presence had the most information.

Apart from him, Lin Yiyi planned to keep another person hostage to compare the information she could dig out. Otherwise, Lin Yiyi and the others wouldn’t even know if the person was talking nonsense during the interrogation.

The third batch of players entered the game slowly, unlike the first two batches, where the players spawned in the world all at once. Currently, Thirteenth Fragrance was the only player who had Soul Snatch Magic.

He was supporting Longjing Tea’s side, making preparation for the advancement nightmare and learning spells at the same time.

After raising Thirteenth Fragrance to Silver Rank, he should be a useful asset.

Lin Yiyi still hadn’t forgotten how terrified they were when they saw Silver Rank Soul Snatch Wizard for the first time not long after they entered this world.

Lin Yiyi was the first to be put under control at that time!

As for the others…

Lin Yiyi slowly opened her eyes. A white crystal on her cuff burst again. The stored spell was conducted into Lin Yiyi’s body through the runes.

“…Yes, right … [Blind].”

While Lin Yiyi pretended to be talking on the phone, she activated the Edict spell without warning.

—Edict School, [Enhanced·Blind].

Her body emitted blinding light. The four enemies instinctively closed and covered their eyes.

However, their effort to cover their eyes were useless. Moreover, it was already too late by the time they were alerted.

As the glaring light overwhelmed the enemies, the intense dizziness caused their bodies to lose balance.

Lin Yiyi instantly stood up from the seat.

She then picked up the solid iron staff placed by the bed and swiftly spun it around.

Bang!

Before the four were stunned, they shot crossbow arrows at Lin Yiyi.

However, Lin Yiyi easily intercepted these arrows at a distance of less than five meters.

With a flash of light in her eyes, she kicked the seat away and knocked the nearest person to the ground.

This was the new skill she obtained after she advanced, [Adaptive Combat Technique]!

After activating the skill, all “interactive” objects in her vision become highlighted.

In an instant, Lin Yiyi felt like Jackie Chan in a furniture store. She felt like she could throw everything out reasonably and efficiently.

However, breaking too many items would be costly since this was an inn. Lin Yiyi restrained himself from making a mess in the end.

She swiftly extended her staff and swung it forcefully, aiming directly at the temple of one of the individuals. Her attack smashed the person’s skull, causing brain matter to splatter.

This made Lin Yiyi feel a little queasy, and she subconsciously held back.

Her quick follow-up strike with a backhand swing broke the other person’s neck with a loud snap.

At this time, the leading “mothership” was about to recover from the dizziness. He backed away, struggling to swallow something.

Is it poison? Or is it an antidote that removes the negative debuffs?

However, it didn’t matter what he planned to do. Lin Yiyi already reached out her left hand to him, facing him with the palm.

As a tiny sapphire shattered, Lin Yiyi spoke in a dignified tone.

“Don’t move!”

At the moment when [Inferior Immobilization Spell] took effect, the person froze instantly.

What Lin Yiyi needed was just this short moment.

Like playing billiards, she bounced back the iron staff at the end, lightly placed it between her thumb and index finger, and slid forward quickly.

With a bang of the iron staff, it hit the man’s forehead.

The man passed out immediately.

As the opponent fainted, the strange energy that made Lin Yiyi’s perception unable to reach them dissipated immediately. This also confirmed her guess. This person was indeed the source of it.

Lin Yiyi also activated another skill in this situation: the [Mercy Strike] she had raised to Level 3. This skill allowed Lin Yiyi to “output the highest damage possible without killing the target”.

From the game perspective, the skill seemed silly. However, it was Lin Yiyi’s favorite.

After all, Lin Yiyi had many targets she shouldn’t kill in this world. With this skill, Lin Yiyi didn’t need to worry back holding back too much and risking being killed by the opponent.

Since the skill was raised to level 3, Lin Yiyi could subdue an ordinary human in one hit. However, she couldn’t use this skill in an actual battle.

In other words, this was a skill similar to “striking with the back of a knife”.

Lin Yiyi had a hunch that pushing the skill to Level 7 would allow her to knock out someone by smashing her staff on the person’s head without killing the victim.

Lin Yiyi’s attack took less than five seconds.

The assassin, who was knocked down by the flying chair, seemed to have a slight concussion and had not yet gotten up from the ground.

She made the same attack and slammed the staff on the back of the head of the assassin who hadn’t gotten up with [Mercy Strike].

With that, Lin Yiyi dealt with all the assassins.

“Huh?” Lin Yiyi couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

She glanced over and found that the skin of the “mothership” was red.

That’s their leader.

Is he a Fallen?

She was about to tie them up when she suddenly remembered something.

Wait a moment.

Since she was attacked for no reason, the rest of the party might also…

“Help me, Sister Hyphen—” A message flashed before Lin Yiyi’s eyes.

It was from Jiu Er.

Fuck, you’re embarrassing us. They are merely a bunch of noobs.

Immediately afterward, Lin Yiyi saw Jiu Er’s following message.

“—Someone with Gold Rank is beating me up!!!”

“…Ha?“
