My Ability Pool is Superior-Chapter 120 - 119: Simple and Brutal

Swish~

The sharp bone blade withdrew, dragging out a gush of blood from the corpse.

The bone blade softened like water, transforming back into a left hand.

"Ungrateful."

Chang Hu shook his hand and spat at the body.

Erxi fell silent; he wanted to ask why the other side didn’t immediately agree and seemed to be considering. Why rush to violence?

But what he said instead reflected a different attitude.

"Thank you, Brother Chang Hu."

Chang Hu nodded, then turned to look at the anxious Death Fighters behind Erxi.

He grinned, saying, "We’ve gathered so many good brothers; should be enough, right?"

"Yes, most of the Death Fighters in this old town have been drawn to us."

Erxi then said, "Let’s head back and discuss with everyone what to do next."

Chang Hu gave him a somewhat mischievous look.

"Alright, let’s go back."

...

Old town, that luxurious dwelling.

The spacious living room was packed with people; at first glance, it might seem like a party, but the scene lacked the liveliness of a party.

Mainly, they were strangers to each other, so few spoke.

Even though dozens of Death Fighters were present, gathered due to Lv Bai’s threat, they were evidently wary of these "companions."

Not many were lone wolf Death Fighters; probably only three or four, as the active lone wolves had likely been taken out.

The remaining people were clearly divided into seven small groups.

Chang Hu lounged lazily on the sofa, legs crossed, relaxed, seemingly without a trace of caution.

The bespectacled man glanced at Chang Hu but didn’t say much, simply stood up and clapped his hands, drawing everyone’s attention to himself.

"First, thank you all for your trust. You all know by now that Smiling Face holds too much of an advantage; facing Smiling Face alone, none of us are a match."

The man adjusted the bridge of his glasses, his eyes behind the lenses devoid of emotion: "Moreover, I might as well tell you, now the parasitic creatures are heeding Smiling Face’s commands. If we delay, we may no longer have the opportunity for such calm deliberation."

"Cut the nonsense."

Chang Hu’s left index finger extended into a bone spoon for cleaning his ear; as he did, he said disdainfully, "Just tell us your plan."

Facing Chang Hu’s blunt attitude, the bespectacled man remained calm: "If anyone has a better plan, feel free to share."

His gaze swept across every Death Fighter present, continuing: "Let me throw out my humble suggestion—military strategy says when double, fight; five times, attack; ten times, encircle.

Everyone here who has persisted in this Death Arena is undoubtedly elite among elites. With our gathered strength, killing Smiling Face shouldn’t be difficult.

Therefore, I suggest we harness our collective power to immediately mount a full-scale ambush on Smiling Face."

Upon hearing this, Erxi, one of the triplets, furrowed his brow and retreated to the back of the group.

The other Death Fighters present exchanged glances.

Indeed, the more intricate the plan, the more prone it is to errors.

But this plan seems a little too simple and crude, doesn’t it?

However, simplicity has its advantages too.

If the bespectacled man had presented an overly intricate plan, they’d likely suspect some machination.

"Some of you might still have concerns, but rest assured, to prove my sincerity, the frontal assault will be handled by Chang Hu and me, as for the other directions..."

...

Nearly ten Death Fighters moved swiftly through the alley, tasked with cutting off Lv Bai’s retreat.

In fact, this group of Death Fighters had already formed a team before the bespectacled man approached them.

With no trust foundation with the other Death Fighters, they might as well maintain team operations.

"Chongyi, do you really trust what that four-eyes said?"

The man with a crab print on his T-shirt sidled up to Xing Chongyi, whispering, "You know how hard it is to retain abilities, let alone have retained Color Level abilities.

I don’t deny that Innocent Smile’s combat power is strong, but he’s ultimately just one person. We can’t let that four-eyes use us."

"I know that guy is up to no good. I’m also skeptical about whether Smiling Face has extra Color Level abilities."

"Then why?"

"Why not? Using collective strength to first eliminate the strongest aligns with everyone’s interests. Rather than letting four-eyes use us, it’s more like he’s providing a platform for communication, temporarily ceasing mutual slaughter."

Xing Chongyi gently corrected a tilted barrier post, leading his companions through.

"Just watch; once Smiling Face is taken out, the next target will be four-eyes and his group..."

Similar conversations were happening among every Death Fighters’ team, expecting them to cooperate closely—might as well expect a monk’s insulated cup with goji berries to be blessed by the abbot.

...

Screech~

Lv Bai walked out of a dilapidated red brick house.

He stood in the alley, looking left and right: "Where did everyone go?"

Since the third round of Ability Pool opened, he hadn’t encountered any Death Fighters.

The previous situation where Death Fighters actively approached him had completely vanished, almost as if they collectively fled from the old town.

"Could it be they all united?"

Thinking of this possibility made Lv Bai’s eyelid twitch.

After all, near a hundred Golden Level abilities, just listening to it sounds terrifying. Who knows what exaggerated effects they could combine?

But if he really confronted so many Death Fighters at once, with his current abilities, he could only use "Battlefield Interception" to escape.

"Brother Lv!!!"

This voice was very familiar.

Lv Bai looked toward the direction of the sound and saw a figure diving down from the roof.

Bang!

The impact was cushioned by the spring-like bone and flesh, Wang Ting placed Yao Yi on the ground, then retracted back into her chest, leaving only two peculiar eyeballs observing from the collar.

Yao Yi steadying himself against a lamppost.

"Ugh~"

He was excited to say something but almost vomited upon opening his mouth.

Lv Bai: "..."

Wang Ting gave Lv Bai an apologetic look. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Indeed, he could see human-like emotions from those two eyeballs.

Glancing at Yao Yi, who seemed to need more time to recover, Wang Ting undertook the communication role: "He doesn’t believe you’re the kind of person rumors online suggest and insisted on meeting you."

Lv Bai casually placed a [Five Immortals Seek Titles] marker on Yao Yi, casually responding.

"Thank you for your concern, but life is about dreams, each finding their own path. I wish you and Yao Yi all the best."
