Chapter 126: Chapter 118: Laughing to Death! But Not Dead Yet…

Lightning wove through his right hand as Lin Feng grabbed the spear radiating cold, and his palm was immediately covered in frost, surging up his forearm.

However, in the next moment, he merely gave a slight shake, and under the stimulation of lightning, the frost’s spread rapidly slowed down.

“You think having an extra beast to help you means you can beat me?” Lin Feng’s face, hidden under the gas mask, was fiercely contorted, the exoskeleton armor moved his arm as if effortlessly snapping his wrist, pulling the spear over.

Li Zheng, in shock, hurriedly retreated several steps. When he raised his hand to check, a bit of skin had been scraped off his palm, painfully burning, though not as severe as a fractured arm, it was still intensely uncomfortable.

“Ha!”

Lightning surged over Lin Feng, channeling into his legs. Within seconds, the Five-Colored Xuan Poison Spider’s spat-out mucus began to emit thin wisps of blue smoke.

“Puff puff.”

With the help of the exoskeleton armor, Lin Feng easily pulled out his legs, suddenly spinning around and tossing the spear, originally belonging to Li Zheng, creating a powerful whoosh through the air.

Li Zheng realized this just before Lin Feng turned and shouted, “Little spider, dodge!”

The Prelis’ Eye seemingly also anticipated Li Zheng couldn’t defeat Lin Feng, devising strategies for him throughout, various tactics displayed as text in his vision.

Two strategies proved critical:

[Although Blood Qi Possession can enhance his defense, maintaining such a state long-term will cause his flesh to stiffen, so dragging out the battle is a good choice. (Air quality is moderate, hypnotic gas concentration is decreasing)]

[The little spider’s actions have already angered him; the little red man is planning to take it out first and then deal with you.]

Because of the second strategy, Li Zheng could remind the spider just before Lin Feng acted.

However, the exoskeleton armor was just too fast, and the little spider only managed to shift slightly before the spear pierced its round belly, pinning it to the ground, unable to move.

[Don’t worry, the little spider barely avoided the vital parts. If you can deal with the little red man within thirty minutes, it can still be saved!

But now is not the damn time to worry about it, take care of yourself first!]

“Now, let’s continue this interesting hunting game.”

After dealing with the Five-Colored Xuan Poison Spider, Lin Feng slowly turned around and stared directly at Li Zheng, “Hand over the Death Declaration, and I’ll be merciful and let you die with less pain.”

He was unaware that this special item, the Death Declaration, would inevitably drop upon the holder’s death. Li Zheng, being the fifth strongest player in the whole zone, surely owned more than three items surpassing Silver Level.

The only reason he hadn’t killed Li Zheng yet was the fear that the Death Declaration might not drop after killing him.

After all, for him, the Death Declaration was far more useful than any other item.

Without a melee weapon, the only weapons Li Zheng had left to potentially harm Lin Feng were two Salted Fish. The Salted Fish Spear had flown from his hand earlier, landing not far from the rock wall; there was no time to go pick it up.

So…

“I’d rather take this harmful item to hell with me than hand it over to you!

Go to hell!”

He took out the sniper Daiyu Spear, decisively attaching Ice Ability, and fired a shot at Lin Feng.

“Zizz.”

Lin Feng had long been prepared, easily dodging the attack with his exoskeleton armor, his gaze growing even colder: “Then I’ll cripple you first, then slowly torment you.

I want to see if it’s your bones that are tough or your spirit!”

Before he finished speaking, Lin Feng suddenly launched with his legs, activating Light Spirit Ability, instantly appearing in front of Li Zheng, aiming a punch at Li Zheng’s chest and abdomen connection point.

The diaphragm is located there in the human body, and a heavy blow can easily render one powerless to resist.

“I think my bone spike is tougher!”

Li Zheng let out a cold snort, grabbed the tail of the Daiyu Spear with one hand, and for the first time attached his ability to the spear’s surface, causing a flame to appear out of nowhere, winding around the Daiyu, the smell of grilled eel enticing the appetite.

Using the spear in place of a sword, Li Zheng employed spear techniques to raise it, blocking Lin Feng’s fist.

“Ding~”

The Daiyu collided with the exoskeleton-armored fist, sparks splattering everywhere, a burst of brilliant flame bursting out.

[Technique matches Basic Swordsmanship, Swordsmanship Specialization progress 0.001%]

A system notification abruptly appeared in Li Zheng’s vision, but with the battle intense, he was too busy to pay attention, subconsciously ignoring it, his gaze still focused on the Prelis’ Eye panel.

[To the right!]

The prompt was short and precise, Li Zheng powerfully applied force to his toes, sidestepping two steps to the right.

An iron fist brushed past his chest, and Li Zheng was quite grateful for having such a reliable item in Prelis’ Eye.

[Retreat three steps!]

The old Prel’s hints became more concise each time, information clear at a glance.

Thump thump thump.

Li Zheng decisively retreated three steps as instructed, the next moment a thick lightning bolt like a mad python struck where he had been standing, electrical snakes slithering along the ground before disappearing.

“These steps, seem familiar?”

Subconsciously, a thought emerged in Li Zheng’s mind, always feeling like he was repeating actions someone else had done before.

Across from him, Lin Feng was a bit surprised at Li Zheng managing to evade this thunderous blow in time.

Previously, he’d always been using lightning attached to his fists to attack, just to mislead others into thinking his genetic ability could only be attached to his body, looking for chances to launch surprise attacks.

“Not bad, I underestimated you, seems I can take you out from the garbage category and put you into the useless group.”

Lin Feng wasn’t in a hurry to chase, retracting his fist to stand, taking out a bottle from his capsule residence, opening it and lifting his gas mask, consuming the entire contents by chewing and swallowing.

“Clatter!”

The empty bottle was casually tossed away, bouncing off the stone wall and rolling a distance after hitting the ground before coming to a stop.

Li Zheng squinted as he looked: “That bottle…”

In his hand appeared an identical empty bottle, and he suddenly understood.

“So the empty room was originally Lin Feng’s abode.”

His gaze fell on the hypnotic gas bomb he had noticed earlier. At this moment, the bomb had stopped releasing gas, presumably having exhausted its contents after a long discharge.

Hypnotic Gas, Painkillers.

Li Zheng looked again at Lin Feng’s legs, though fixed in the exoskeleton armor, faintly revealing an unnatural state.

[These legs once broke!

Guess how they broke?

Do you know about lotus root paste?

And guess the fundamental reason for his leg disability?

You think the side effects of genetic ability development tools are mild?

The little swordsman was quite lucky, only losing his hair.

Oh ho ho ho~

Funny, but not dead yet!]

“I see, because the bone injuries were too severe, so even after treatment with orthopedic braces, it left a chronic issue?”

Li Zheng’s expression turned odd as he recalled recovering a set of nanorobots specifically for bone treatment after killing William.

“If at that time the lessee of the nanorobots happened to be Lin Feng, then…

That’s damn interesting!”
