Survival of the Nation: I Can Specify the Items That Will Drop

Chapter 256: Shield Resonance

Translate to

Lin Feng gave him no time to think.

He had already rushed in front of Mordred, thrusting the Wildfire Spear, the tip aiming straight for the Necromancer's throat.

Mordred activated Shield Resonance, a purple glow lighting up the shield as it gained damage reduction based on his total defense.

The spear tip struck the shield; 【Spell Deflection】 failed to trigger, but under the damage reduction effect of Shield Resonance, it only consumed a little over a hundred shield points.

But Lin Feng was in no hurry; he knew that Shield Resonance only lasted for three minutes. After three minutes, his chance would come.

The battle entered a grappling phase. Mordred dodged while firing Death Touches, and Lin Feng pursued while parrying.

The two fought from one side of the high platform to the other, and then back again.

The rays of Death Touch left charred marks on the bone walls of the platform, while the flames of the Wildfire Spear left dark red afterimages in the air.

On the other side, Jiang Zhaoyue and Jiang Yelan were also fighting their own battles.

Jiang Zhaoyue charged into the right-wing formation, thrusting the silver moon sky spear as a silver-white spear light shot from the tip—【Silver Moon Spear Radiance】.

The spear light flew in a straight line, piercing through an Undead Knight in the center of the formation and pinning it to the ground. -450!

Jiang Zhaoyue rushed forward, quickly thrusting twice with a Silver Light Cross Slash, clearing an open space among the surrounding Undead Warriors.

Jiang Yelan, meanwhile, had slipped into the shadows of the left-wing formation.

Her figure darted among the undead. Every time the shadow moon blade flashed, an Undead Archer or Undead Warrior fell.

The active effect of Shadow Step allowed her to ignore thirty percent of defense during a Backstab, dealing staggering damage.

One Undead Warrior didn't even see her figure before its helmet was pierced by a blade, soulfire erupting from its eye sockets.

The two were slaughtering their way through the Undead Army, but there were simply too many undead.

They swarmed from all directions—iron swords, black arrows, and lances—attacks coming in wave after wave like a tide.

Jiang Zhaoyue's silver moon sky spear parried most of the attacks, but occasionally a black arrow or two would hit her shoulder or arm, causing her health bar to slowly drop.

Jiang Yelan's high-speed evasion allowed her to avoid most attacks, but the rain of arrows was too dense; there were always a few she couldn't dodge.

Shields lit up on their bodies.

Every time they took damage, the pale gold chain of light would flicker; half the damage was absorbed by the shield, while the other half fell on them.

The 1,090 shield points were rapidly consumed under the dense attacks.

After eight minutes, the shield value hit zero, and the pale gold chains of light shattered and dissipated.

Their own health bars had also lost over six hundred points.

Jiang Zhaoyue glanced toward the high platform; Lin Feng was still locked in combat with Mordred, and the Necromancer's shield had dimmed considerably.

She then looked at Jiang Yelan, who gave her a slight nod.

Retreat.

The two turned simultaneously, fighting their way toward the outskirts of the Undead Army.

Jiang Zhaoyue swept her silver moon sky spear, knocking away the Undead Warriors blocking the path.

Jiang Yelan slashed repeatedly with her shadow moon blade, tearing a hole in the undead crowd.

They didn't linger in the fight, simply carving out a path and then accelerating to disengage from the battlefield.

Lin Feng saw out of the corner of his eye that the two had already retreated beyond the range of the Undead Army, and his heart settled.

He dodged a Death Touch from Mordred and then pointed his spear tip diagonally toward the densest part of the Undead Army—【Beacon Fire City】!

A blazing fire meteor spear light shot from the tip, charging in a straight line and piercing through the Undead Army's formation.

Undead Warriors in the path were knocked flying, burned by flames, their bones shattered, as a path was forcibly blasted open.

Lin Feng activated Beacon Fire City again, his body turning into a streak of flaming light as he followed the trajectory of the spear light, landing in the center of the Undead Army.

The moment he landed, flames splashed out, blowing over the Undead Warriors within five meters.

He raised his spear and swept it, killing them one by one, one by one, carving a path straight through the undead crowd.

In thirty seconds, he killed nearly a hundred more undead.

The number of the Undead Army dropped from two thousand three hundred to one thousand five hundred.

The effect of the Army Formation weakened—the health bonus dropped from two hundred to one hundred, and the attack power bonus dropped from twenty to ten.

The swords of those Undead Warriors hit Lin Feng with significantly lower damage.

Lin Feng retracted his spear, no longer lingering in the fight.

He turned and ran in the direction where Jiang Zhaoyue and Jiang Yelan had retreated.

Behind him, the Undead Army tried to pursue, but their speed was far inferior to his.

A distance of several hundred meters was opened up in just a few breaths.

On the high bone platform, Mordred stood at the edge, watching that receding back, his eerie green eyes filled with anger and a hint of... wariness.

His Shield Resonance had been used, and his shield points were down to less than a thousand.

And that human, who was immune to curses, extremely fast, and dealt ridiculously high damage, along with those two women...

In less than ten minutes, they had cut down a third of the Undead Army he had worked so hard to summon.

Mordred closed his necronomicon and turned to walk into the shadows behind the platform.

He needed time to recover his shield and time to wait for the cooldown of the Undead Scourge.

On a gentle slope three miles away, Tie Dun was the first to see Lin Feng's figure and jumped up: "He's back! The Lord is back!"

Feng Qingyan also stood up, the flame on her staff dancing happily: "Lord Lin! Sister Jiang! Sister Ye Lan!"

The three figures ran across the plain, getting closer and closer.

Lin Feng walked at the front, his Wildfire Spear slung behind him, his body covered in the black blood of the undead, but his eyes were bright.

Jiang Zhaoyue walked by his side, black blood still dripping from her silver moon sky spear, her silver-blue armor marked with several new scratches.

Jiang Yelan walked at the very back, her shadow moon blade sheathed.

As the three returned to the slope, Su Yurou immediately went to meet them, her blue crystal staff held high, the gem at its tip glowing with a pale gold light.

She first cast 【Healing Spell】 on Lin Feng; a soft beam of light fell on him, ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ and his health bar rose significantly.

Five seconds later, a second Healing Spell fell on Jiang Zhaoyue.

Another five seconds, and a third Healing Spell fell on Jiang Yelan.

The three lights lit up in sequence with even intervals; though it took some time, all three of their health bars returned above the safety line.

Back on the slope, Tie Dun handed over a waterskin, and Feng Qingyan leaned in to look Jiang Zhaoyue up and down, only sighing in relief after confirming she was okay.

Lin Feng took the waterskin, gulped down some water, and wiped his mouth.

He looked at Zhao Hu: "The Undead Army has fifteen hundred left, and the Army Formation effect has weakened. Rest for a bit; we'll go for another round later."

Zhao Hu nodded without asking further questions.

Lin Feng sat down against a rock and closed his eyes, sensing the cooldown status of his skills.

Beacon Fire City had been used, and Shield of Comrades had been used; both needed time to recover.

Armor Unification had been used up long ago during the fight with Mordred, but it should be ready by the next time he went in.

He had used thirty-three Blazing Spear Lights today, with twenty-seven remaining; that should be enough.
