Infinite Survival: I Can Plunder Passive Skills-Chapter 100 - Rebound

“I think I understand what is going on.”

Zhou Chen was extremely focused during the attack this time, observing the abnormality of the attack.

He realized that when he hit the knight’s arm with the spear shaft, a mysterious force quickly passed through the spear shaft to his body, triggering a tremor in his body, causing him to spew blood.

“Looks like I can’t attack this thing’s body, or else I will be injured by the shock.”

Zhou Chen felt a real threat to his life. Such an opponent could be said to be his nemesis. It would be difficult for him to win even if he used the method of exchanging injuries. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

“Let’s try long-range attacks. If long-range attacks are like this too, I can only use potions and grind it down.”

The unprecedentedly troublesome enemy did not make Zhou Chen panic. He began to think of his next strategy.

He activated his Windrun skill to increase his speed, pulling away from this knight who was charging over with his sword raised. Then, he changed the spear in his hand to a weapon he had never used in combat: a crossbow.

He had obtained the crossbow from the treasure chest in the Underground City. He had practiced with it a few times after returning to Planet Blue and had even loaded a bolt on it when he placed it in his inventory so that he could use it immediately.

“Corpse poison!”

Zhou Chen then activated the corpse poison passive skill that he had not used much recently. He touched the bolt head and added the corpse poison.

Then, he used the Windrun skill to speed up and circled behind the knight. He fired the bolt at the knight’s back from more than ten meters away.

However, there was a clang. The knight turned around and slashed the bolt in two.

“F*ck… He’s showing off…”

Zhou Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve and continued to rely on the agility of his Windrun skill to move away from the knight.

Finally, after spending some time, he finished adding corpse poison to the second bolt. He relied on the short floating ability of the Windrun to charge to the left of this knight when the knight was off-guard, and fired the bolt.

This time, the bolt struck the knight, but the damage was small because the bolt struck the thicker part of the armor. With the power of his crossbow, it might only be able to barely pierce through the armor and cause a slight injury, or even no damage.

“His speed seems to have slowed down a little. The bolt should have broken through his defense just now.”

A few seconds later, Zhou Chen observed that the knight’s movements and charging speed had slowed down a little, and guessed that his bolt had pierced the latter’s body.

“This guy’s physique is really strong. If ordinary creatures were touched with corpse poison, even if they don’t die, they will quickly become crippled.”

Zhou Chen was not too surprised by the weak effect of the corpse poison because he had already sensed that the knight’s body was extraordinary from the beginning.

“Although the damage is not high, at least I know that launching a long-range attack on him will not cause tremor in my body.”

This was Zhou Chen’s biggest gain from this crossbow attack.

Relying on this experience, he spent some time using another poison-smeared bolt to hit the knight again. The knight’s poisoned state worsened slightly, and the weakening of his body became more obvious.

This was very significant because this knight had been chasing after Zhou Chen crazily during this period of time. Zhou Chen had relied on the speed enhancement of the Windrun skill to maintain the distance between them, but the spiritual energy consumption of the Windrun skill was not small. Zhou Chen was already starting to feel a toll on his mind, so he had to weaken this enemy as much as possible to continue using his kiting strategy.

After using the two poison-smeared bolts to weaken the enemy, Zhou Chen took the opportunity to take out a bottle of mid tier healing potion and drank it. Then, he stopped the Windrun skill that he had been maintaining and began to rely on his own speed to kite the enemy.

This was not easy because his spirit was already exhausted due to using the Windrun for a long period, and his body had just vomited two mouthfuls of blood. He had drunk the healing potion, but it would take some time for him to recover. The enemy was a physical monster. If not for Zhou Chen’s foundation being far beyond that of ordinary people, he would definitely have died from exhaustion.

A while later, Zhou Chen felt a little better. The healing potion had healed his internal injuries, and his condition had improved a little.

He ran on the platform agilely, circling around the knight who was charging at him with the bastard sword, while searching for an opportunity.

Finally, after a minute, the opportunity appeared. The knight was turning around, when Zhou moved to the side and breathed out flames.

This fire came from the fire attribute energy produced by his Fire Source passive skill. He had not breathed fire for a few days, and the fire energy in his body was full.

Flames spewed out and crossed a distance of more than ten meters, quickly submerging the knight.

A second later, Zhou Chen saw a burning figure charge out of the flames. He held the slightly heated bastard sword and charged at him without care.

“This guy can really endure it, walking out of a fire like it is nothing.”

This situation was slightly beyond Zhou Chen’s expectations. He had thought that he could seriously injure the other party with fire.

However, he could tell that the knight was definitely not unscathed, because the armor on his body had burned red by the flames, and was continuing to cause damage to him. 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦

“I can still launch two such fire-breathing attacks. I don’t believe I can’t burn you to death!”

Zhou Chen continued to circle around this enemy patiently. It took him a few minutes to find the other two good opportunities to breathe flames at him.

After being engulfed by the flames twice more, the condition of the knight had worsened greatly. Although he was still chasing after Zhou Chen, his speed was only a third of his previous speed, and his movements were much slower.

“It’s time to finish this…”

Zhou Chen knew that it was time to end this difficult and long battle.

He took out his ax, machete, and claymore from his inventory and threw them at the heavily injured knight.

Zhou Chen spent ten minutes picking up the weapons and throwing them repeatedly before finally defeating the knight.

[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the Black Knight’s passive skill, “Rebound II”. Do you want to absorb it?]

“Absorb!”

As soon as Zhou Chen heard the name of this passive skill, he knew that it was the thing that had forced him to give up on close combat. Such a thing was very disgusting when it was on the enemy, but it was a divine skill when it was with him.

He opened the interface and looked at the details of this Rebound passive skill.

[Rebound II]

Type: Mid bronze passive skill

When you receive melee attacks, you will shock the enemy’s body and cause mid bronze-ranked damage from the inside out.]
