My Ability Pool is Superior-Chapter 49: Lu Bai Unaffected

Da! Da! Da!
Under the ferocious firepower suppression of the vehicle-mounted heavy machine gun, the Survey Corps gunners hiding in the building were pinned down, unable to lift their heads.
Occasional counterattacks merely involved sticking the muzzle out and firing a burst toward the window outside, with little actual effect.
“Elevator cannot be used.”
“Fourth and Sixth Squads have successfully reached the third floor emergency passage.”
“Second floor cleared.”
Inside the armored vehicle, Zhou Zongming had a grim expression as he asked the adjutant beside him, “What’s the current casualties situation?”
“Still being tallied, but it’s not looking good. Two squads have completely lost contact.”
The adjutant hesitated for a moment but couldn’t help speaking up: “Company Commander, we can’t continue like this.”
Although from the ed information, the troops’ actions weren’t entirely ineffective.
But in reality, they all knew that since the troops entered the Administrative Building, not even a single kill had come back. The enemy had at most been hit and wounded.
This meant the casualty ratio was extremely lopsided. If it continued at this rate, they might not even recapture the Administrative Building before the troops were wiped out.
Zhou Zongming angrily slammed his palm on the steering wheel.
“This level of military literacy—you’re telling me they were ordinary civilians before?!”
Their weapons were picked up from others, yet even top special forces might not guarantee they could achieve this degree.
The adjutant could only smile bitterly. Who knew how the checkpoint staff had conducted the review.
In a daze, the adjutant caught a glimpse of the screen in the rearview mirror and suddenly reacted: “Company Commander, how about asking those people about the situation again?”
Zhou Zongming turned to look, a hint of doubt rising in his mind.
The reason was obvious.
Facing the hail of bullets, Xiao Xueyin and the others hid behind the armored vehicle without panicking like ordinary civilians; they were mostly calm, and some even looked excited, eager to give it a try.
If it were just one or two people reacting this way, it could barely be understood, but if everyone was like this, there was definitely something wrong.
Either this group was mentally unstable, or they were fearless due to backing.
A bold guess immediately popped into the adjutant’s mind: “Ask them if they can help?”
“Nonsense!”
Zhou Zongming instinctively scolded.
Then he pondered, softening his tone: “It wouldn’t hurt to hear their will. I keep feeling they know the dangerous elements in the building; at worst, they should have some connection.”
……
Sixth floor, Conference Hall.
Sword light continuously reflected off the walls, the sound of sharp blades slicing through the air unrelenting.
Under the boost of Blood Rage, every swing of Lu Bai’s sword whipped up a gust of wind.
The storm-like attacks turned the hall into a mess, with wood chips flying everywhere.
Regrettably, under this “blade storm” coverage, Duan Jianhui’s clothes fluttered in the sword wind, but he himself was unscathed.
“This wind feels just right.”
Duan Jianhui slightly raised his chin, looking rather enjoying.
Lu Bai ignored the other’s mockery and muttered to himself: “Not invisibility, doesn’t seem like Divine Might or anything like that either. That casual feeling when I attack feels more like the scope of distorting cognition…”
Hearing this, unease flashed in Duan Jianhui’s eyes.
He deliberately said in a contemptuous tone: “Haven’t had enough fun yet?”
Unfortunately, Lu Bai was unaffected, making him seem awkwardly like he was performing a solo.
“Fine, play by yourself slowly. Anyway, your little girlfriend should be dead by now, so no need to rush.”
Duan Jianhui adjusted his sleeves and turned toward the exit of the Conference Hall: “I have things to do, no time to accompany you.”
Zheng!
Lu Bai’s attack abruptly stopped. He inserted the Eight-Sided Han Sword into a piece of wood, resting his hand on the end of the hilt, and said with a smile: “You’re scared.”
Duan Jianhui paused, without turning around, casually saying: “If you think so, I can’t help it…”
Before he finished speaking, Lu Bai interrupted him.
“Actually, I really don’t like using my brain, but I keep running into all sorts of weird abilities.”
“What do you mean?”
“If I’m not wrong, it’s the effect of two abilities combined—something like neglect and misjudgment?”
Duan Jianhui finally turned his body, his face expressionless.
“So I shouldn’t swing my sword at you, just pretend you don’t exist, then firepower coverage.”
Without pause, Lu Bai gripped the Eight-Sided Han Sword tightly and launched an all-around coverage attack.
Slowing down would reveal that during the sword swings, he even closed his eyes.
An arm, spraying blood, was flung high into the air.
Duan Jianhui couldn’t react—or rather, even if he did, he had no time to dodge.
Essentially, his physical fitness was no different from an ordinary person’s.
Meanwhile, the ability set Lu Bai had mastered was nearly invincible in direct combat at this stage.
Zombie Virus-enhanced physical fitness, combined with the amplification from Blood Rage and Drow Group, allowed over ten sword swings in the 0.5 seconds of Flash Step.
This act of pushing his body to the limit made Lu Bai’s breathing rapid.
However, even panting heavily, his face still bore a pure innocent smile from the heart.
Lu Bai took a deep breath and slowly opened his eyes: “Looks like I guessed right.”
“Good, good, good.”
In front of the Conference Hall door, Duan Jianhui clutched his wound, his complexion very ugly.
The next second, he completely disappeared from Lu Bai’s view, only his voice lingering: “You’d better stay vigilant forever and never relax.”
Pa la!
Lu Bai followed the sound, repeating the trick; the Conference Hall door was instantly split into countless fragments.
Unfortunately, this time he didn’t hit Duan Jianhui again; the other seemed to have fled.
“Tch.”
It was indeed bad luck—not taking out Duan Jianhui in the first wave of attacks, only severing one arm, which Lu Bai couldn’t quite accept.
Mainly, he hadn’t expected that beyond misjudgment, the other could even vanish directly from view.
He bent down to pick up the U disk on the ground, which Duan Jianhui had deliberately discarded to avoid exposing his position.
[Ding!]
[Current Deathmatch Arena node acquired.]
[Double Points Reward loading remaining time——]
[23:59:59]
……
[23:59:55]
[23:59:54]
A Gu didn’t lie about this. After obtaining the “node,” it takes twenty-four hours to get the Double Points Reward.
In that case, calculating the time, Duan Jianhui hadn’t even gotten the Double Points Reward before he was forced to painfully let it go.
Lu Bai casually pocketed the U disk and walked out of the Conference Hall.
Having suffered such a big loss, it was impossible for Duan Jianhui to let it go easily, especially since he left a harsh warning.
At this thought, he thoughtfully scanned the corridor ahead and behind, vaguely feeling that Duan Jianhui might be watching him from some corner.
