409: Chapter 389: Moths Flying into the Fla 409: Chapter 389: Moths Flying into the Fla Su Zhizhu, hidden in the shadows, was quite frustrated.
On her foot, there was a wound about an inch wide.
Although it was covered with “dicinal Paper,” it could only provide temporary anesthesia and pain relief, and blood still gradually seeped out.
This was the result of accidentally stepping on a “landmine.”
She had burns on her hair, right arm, and fingers, not because she wasn’t careful enough to avoid Little Fla’s area of attack.
It was the high-temperature boiling steam itself, which was a strong offensive weapon.
There was no possibility of avoiding it…
so unlucky ones were directly kicked out of the field.
“Miscalculated…”
Even though she had repeatedly overestimated Lu Ping’an, even though her “preparation” had been diligent enough, she knew she still underestimated Lu Ping’an.
What he demonstrated at the mont were the professions of Gardener, Beast Tar (?), Battle-profession, and Soldier, and it was obvious that his achievents in each aspect weren’t low, especially Beast Tar and Gardener…
the fierce tree and beasts he possessed shouldn’t have been attainable for soone his age.
The most important misjudgnt was…
“…
He’s a warrior, and I’m in logistics.
Since I can’t crush him with a tier advantage, I need to adjust my mindset and think about how to fight…”
Su Zhizhu was a Silver-tier professional, but she was still only a support.
This was determined by her inheritance and professional path.
At her age of just over 20, her breakthrough to the fourth-tier was already amazing, which ant her secondary professions were limited, as well as the “decrees” she could cultivate.
As a support, her cultivation priority naturally focused on “support abilities”…
enhancing attack abilities for a support made no sense to her partners.
As a support character, enhancing healing, scouting, and shielding abilities were its priority…
if a support started by firing a “heavy artillery”, most of the objections would co from their teammates.
After all, a “powerful Silver-tier Abnormal Ability” didn’t co out of nowhere.
It either ca from refining, cultivating, and upgrading one’s basic abnormal abilities or the combination and stacking of various professional paths…
It’s not realistic to simply take freebies without committing to a specific path.
One’s past path determined the kind of advancent one could achieve.
The “Paper Frog” that she displayed now was a specialty ability that focused more on cleaning and ambush rather than direct attacks, achieved through the combination of her spatial ability and origami ability.
This was the limit of her professional system.
“…
Damn it, this armor is too conspicuous.
It wasn’t there half a month ago, and it was prepared specifically for this battle.
It’s too conspicuous…”
The woman bit her lips till they bled, but there was nothing she could do.
As support, she was quite strong with her many and varied abilities, and she even cultivated the rare spatial ability.
Aside from being a support, she could also use various “support” abilities on herself, turning herself into a “battle professional” with a basic ability level not lower than third-tier.
However, her basic attributes and abnormal ability configurations made it clear that she would be at a disadvantage in head-on combat.
Her conventional tactics were more akin to an “assassin.”
Invisibility, interference, cloning, and sneak attacks all worked well in her favor.
But these strategies beca useless against a fully draped armor.
And to make matters worse, he rode an extrely dangerous fire-elent Beast, a heavily armored cavalry.
“…
That six-legged creature must be Silver-tier or higher, yet this guy only has a 2-tier?”
How could a 2-tier “Beast Tar (?)” ta a fourth-tier beast, and it seed that it was not limited to fourth-tier…
Su Zhizhu was genuinely stumped.
“Buzz!”
But the suddenly opened armor attracted her attention, and finally showed her hope.
“…
I knew it, an armor of this level can’t be used by him casually.
Has he reached his limit?”
However, the opened armor only exposed Lu Ping’an’s head and torso parts, while his limbs were still buried in the dark shadows.
This scene also relieved so of the onlookers.
This Animated Armor had too many “decorations,” and its overall style was too similar to chanical Spirit Awakening objects.
Coupled with the young man’s displayed “pseudo-Beast Tar” ability, it inevitably made people overthink.
Now, the opened part revealed mysterious and spiritual styling, fitting for an Animated Armor.
Was it intentional?
Or just a coincidence?
But the next scene made Su Zhizhu’s blood pressure soar.
Lu Ping’an surprisingly began feasting like crazy, that chef’s gourt food, full of “pollutants,” made people shudder…
Boldly eating in the battlefield either required culinary expertise or high-tier professionals having high resistance to pollutants.
Her opponent was clearly playing a war of attrition and was getting stronger and stronger.
The anxiety accumulated in Su Zhizhu’s heart as she knew she had limited ti…
—–
——
“He can still keep his composure, huh.”
Lu Ping’an was quite carefree, finishing one al and moving on to the next, treating it as a replenishnt.
Power enhancent, skin hardening, ntal alertness; anyway, all these short-term, yet powerful buffs were worth adding to his body whether they were useful or not…
Besides, they tasted quite good.
Tie Zheni was indeed the president of the Gourt Association, and the benefits were impressive.
These “gourt foods” were pollutants, but not to worry about spoilage until they were completely ineffective; they were just a bit cold…
“Uh.
Maybe we need a microwave.”
Lu Ping’an sucked on his fingers, wiping the grease on the side of…
Zhi Xi’s body.
The silent Zhi Xi imdiately began to rant at Lu Ping’an, giving him so work to do.
He continued to “farm” as he chatted with Zhi Xi.
He truly wasn’t worried.
He knew most of Su Zhizhu’s tactics and strategies, so there was nothing to worry about.
This wasn’t a fair matchup, Su Zhizhu had already been cornered…Of course, she could turn around and leave.
With Ping’an lacking “detection” abilities, it would be impossible to find her, especially since her stealth skills were vaguely at Silver-tier.
But if she really escaped, that might be more embarrassing than outright “dying” here.
From the mont Zhi Xi appeared, Su Zhizhu no longer stood a chance…
at best, she could only make her loss look better.
After so probing and entering formal combat, both sides had felt this fact – even so strongn among the audience noticed it.
“…It’s over, huh?
This is the level of freshn?
Not bad, it’s very good.”
Director Yuan nodded and took note of this young man.
It seed he was still underage?
Achieving this level at such a young age is very promising.
He could be a definite Silver-tier, or maybe even higher.
Director Qian opened his mouth, unsure how to respond.
This caliber of performance was barely within his own…
So how could this youth have been a normal person just a few months ago?
He wanted to say sothing but eventually shook his head instead.
Ping’an’s intelligence was bound to leak out.
His abnormal abilities were too conspicuous and could hardly be hidden.
As an educator, he shouldn’t divulge his students’ abnormal information causing unnecessary attention.
At this point, the three nonchalant outsiders had beco serious, watching this “one-person” showdown.
They were evaluating and whispering; ultimately, they nodded in approval.
“Not bad…”
“It’s alright…”
“Looking forward to it, this is just a freshman…”
Their comnts made the other principals and school leaders feel a bit awkward.
This level was on par with graduates from other schools, and it seed excessive to use him as a baseline for freshn.
“Ahem, he’s a special case.”
“Heh, we need special talents like him.
One or two special talents in each class, a few dozen special talents in a school, and one or two thousand in a city.
The new era needs a new generation like this…
truly worthy of the ancient city, a place where heroes and geniuses gather.”
He truly was a seasoned bureaucrat, who raised the tone within just two sentences, and smoothly saved face for everyone present.
But from the satisfied expression on his face as he looked at Ping’an, it was evident that his admiration for the young man was genuine.
As a battle-hardened high-level professional, he could see that the fourth-tier professional was a “multitasker” who could help in many aspects but lacked the ability to deliver a decisive blow.
On the other hand, the young man possessed abilities far beyond his age, and his tactics were simple and blunt.
Facing a part-ti assassin, he blatantly went for a positional warfare combined with heavy armor, especially in a limited space for a face-to-face confrontation, coupled with two Silver-tier War Beasts, completely restraining her.
Both War Beasts were clearly strong and could probably hold their own against the “multitasker.”
It’s not unfair; Beast Tars, Gardeners, and others in the Life system play like this.
Warriors can’t be expected not to use weapons, right?
You’re a pure support relying on your tier to bully others, but you’ve hit a snag…
In a normal 2-on-2 match, it’s customary to calculate combat power, so why would a support seek a one-on-one fight?
“…
It should end in a minute or two.
The more it drags on, the worse the girl’s condition will get, and it’s going to be deadly for the gourmand to stack BUFFs, especially high-quality ones…
”
Ti was running out, and as everyone anxiously awaited, the mont finally ca.
Su Zhizhu appeared from behind Lu Ping’an, leaping out like a moth to a fla and a fleeting spark on a hot sumr day.
Then she was impaled on the lance.
“…”
She vomited a large amount of blood, her eyes wide open, glaring at Lu Ping’an as if she would never close them again.
The lance shook, and the “corpse” turned into dry fragnts.
The young man opened his helt and sighed with a bit of helplessness.
“Silver-tier professional?
That’s all?”
His consolation for the loser, who was most likely the “dead” Su Zhizhu, would never be heard.
