Global Towers: Starting With The SSS-Rank Talent, God-Tier Extraction

After watching Wei Feng leave, Liu Yan went to find Allen Smith and the other experts of Team Origin to inform them to prepare for the operation.

Luo Rui and the others would search for them, and they would eventually find the location of Team Origin.

What Liu Yan needed to do now was not to expose the trump card of Team Origin.

They couldn't let Luo Rui know Liu Yan's true strength, and Team Origin was protected by the Withered Tree Spirits.

This way, in the first battle between Team Origin and Team Lighthouse, Team Origin would take advantage of Team Lighthouse's miscalculation of Team Origin's strength, severely weakening Team Lighthouse's strength.

Liu Yan needed to hide his strength and naturally could not make a move with full force to stop Luo Rui and the rest from entering.

After all, Liu Yan only displayed 13-star combat strength previously. It was still insufficient to stop Luo Rui and the others from exploring deeper.

Soon, the experts of Team Origin gathered.

Liu Yan looked at the experts of Team Origin and told them the information he had just received from Wei Feng.

"That's about it. The people that Luo Rui brought are not bad, but they are all strong experts. If we go all out, it's not enough to take them down. Since that's the case, we won't expose our strength to chase them away, leaving a chance for the next battle. Remember, our goal in this battle is to chase them away and not expose your strength. You can only participate in this battle with your strength before you got the S-grade mission reward, which is about one star higher than when you participated in the battle at the Flaming Mountain." Liu Yan looked at the experts of Team Origin and instructed.

"Alright."

"Understood."

"I understand."

...

The experts of Team Origin had already participated in several battles with Liu Yan. They had faced powerful opponents and used complicated battle plans. Hence, they had a lot of battle experience points and naturally understood Liu Yan's intentions.

Liu Yan nodded slightly and led the experts of Team Origin to the outer area of Withered Tree Spirit.

In order to hide their strength, the Withered Tree Spirit would not participate in the battle this time and would not help Team Origin.

Soon, Liu Yan led the experts of the Team Origin to the outer area of the Withered Tree Spirit's habitat.

Liu Yan relied on his S-grade skill Omniscient Insight, coupled with the powerful hearing enhancement from his SS-grade Extraordinary Five Senses, and quickly determined the direction of Luo Rui and the others. He arrived in front of them in advance and laid an ambush.

Liu Yan reminded the experts of Team Origin again. They could only fight with a combat strength one star higher than when they were in the battle at Flaming Mountain. However, they had to display this combat strength at the start of the battle.

It was good to intimidate Luo Rui and the others so they did not dare to go deep and leave directly.

Liu Yan and his group were lying in an ambush. There were more than twenty people in total. Liu Yan had 18-star combat strength, and Allen Smith, Hans Wilson, and Ye Yifan had 13-star combat strength. The rest had a 12-star combat strength

However, Liu Yan would only display 14-star combat strength in the battle later.

Allen Smith, Hans Wilson, and Ye Yifan would display 11-star combat strength.

The rest of them would only be able to display 10-star combat strength.

Although this kind of combat strength was estimated not to be as powerful as Luo Rui and the others, a sudden attack, coupled with this place being deep within the Hallucinatory Forest, was believed to be enough to deter Luo Rui and the rest.

Not long after Liu Yan and the rest laid in ambush, Luo Rui brought people to search.

Seeing that the distance was close, Liu Yan took the lead to launch his attack.

Liu Yan held his S-grade weapon, Flying Cloud Mystic Bow, and activated his SS-grade Gold Secret Art. His gold elemental energy immediately condensed into a few arrows.

Of course, Liu Yan didn't push his SS-grade Gold Secret Art to the extreme. Otherwise, if he used all his strength to condense the arrow feather, his combat strength would easily break through to 14-star.

At the same time, he activated his A-grade skill Poison Control and smeared all sorts of poisons on the arrows.

As Liu Yan's combat strength increased, he could not keep up with the A-grade Poison Control. Liu Yan rarely used it recently.

However, in such a battle, Poison Control was undoubtedly more suitable.

It would not be too powerful and breakthrough 14-star combat strength. At the same time, the poison would create a certain amount of trouble for Luo Rui and the others, which would restrict them.

Then, Liu Yan activated the A-grade skill, Ultimate Aim, to ensure the accuracy of these arrows.

Otherwise, if Liu Yan's arrow with 14-star combat strength was not fast enough, it was possible for Luo Rui and the other experts to dodge it!

A few poisonous gold elemental energies shot out.

The golden arrows were dazzling in the green forest. They were also covered by the forest.

However, Luo Rui and the others were experts. They noticed this dash of golden light at the first moment.

But with the cover of all kinds of flowers and trees, Luo Rui and the rest also only discovered these few arrows but could not determine the specific location.

By the time Luo Rui and the others sensed these few arrows clearly, the distance was already close.

But Luo Rui and the rest were powerful. Even at the last moment, at such a close distance, they still had time to dodge.

Luo Rui, who had 18-star combat strength, used his terrifying speed to dodge the arrows.

Although the few experts beside him did not have such speed, they had dodging skills. Facing the sudden attack, they also dodged in an orderly manner.

"You want to hit me with such speed?" Luo Rui smiled coldly.

But in the next moment, these few arrows that were about to be dodged directly changed their angle slightly in the air, heading towards Luo Rui and the others.

At such a close distance, Luo Rui and the others could no longer dodge in time and could only resist head-on.

Under a few arrows, Luo Rui and the others did not suffer any severe injuries. After all, they were powerful. At the same time, they had the protection of pretty good defensive equipment. The injuries they suffered were minor.

But very quickly, the poison spread, affecting the speed of Luo Rui and the others.

At the same time, Allen Smith and the others attacked one after another.

Luo Rui and the others hid hurriedly.

However, it was a surprise attack from multiple directions. In addition to the poison on Liu Yan's arrow feathers, their speed and reaction speed was affected to a certain extent. They were unable to dodge all of them.

Luo Rui's expression was a little ugly at this moment, but he still had a certain level of rationality. He hurriedly instructed, "They've set up an ambush here. The terrain is rather complicated. Retreat quickly!"

After that, Luo Rui led a few experts. They turned around and left without looking back. He had no intention of continuing the battle at all.

When Liu Yan and the others behind saw this, they felt relieved. Their intentions had been achieved. Under the premise of not revealing their strength, they intimidated Luo Rui and the others and drove them away. That was enough, so they did not continue to pursue it.

Luo Rui had been leading his men to leave quickly. In a short while, they had already escaped dozens of kilometers. They had already reached the periphery of the Hallucinatory Forest before stopping.

Being suddenly ambushed, Luo Rui's expression immediately darkened.

"Check your injuries." Luo Rui said indifferently.

Soon, several experts checked their injuries.

"It's just some light injuries, and it's not serious at all, Captain."

"Only the initial surprise attack was a little powerful. There was a late-stage or even peak 14-star combat strength. As for the rest of the attacks, the strongest was only at the peak of 11-star combat strength."

"His strength isn't that great. Compared to the battle on the Flaming Mountain, his strength has only increased by one star."

"It seems like the battle at the Flaming Mountain has benefited them a lot. Their strength has increased by one star. To be able to increase their combat strength by one star at such a fast speed, their talent is indeed not bad."

"But they are only talented, but their strength is still not enough. If we turned around and fought back just now, they were not our match at all."

"That's right. They only have about twenty people. Their strength isn't much. They're not our match at all."

"Captain, why don't we go back now and finish them off?"

...
