"It's really rude to call me a rat."
Slowly standing up, Yang Yu took out the shield and put it into his left hand. Although as long as he could successfully climb over the wall, the mission would be basically completed, it seemed that he would not be able to climb over the wall without defeating Asuna.
"If you insist on using a metaphor, I'd rather you describe me as a white mink on the hunt. That would make me seem cuter. After all, we're just walking in a rat hole, not real rats."
"You mean, we are the rats?" Asuna flicked the whip lightly, and the whip whipped the air, making a terrible crackling sound. She straightened her messy hair and sneered, "You really don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. I see that you don't know the difference in strength between us. Only the weak will become rats."
When the deafening explosion sounded, she knew very well what would happen if the instigator of all this ran away, so she immediately ran in the direction where Yang Yu was most likely to escape, and caught up with him just as he was climbing over the wall.
She had to stop Yang Yu at all costs, clamp her fangs tightly around the neck of this thieving rat, enjoy the look of despair on his face, and make him pay for all the losses here.
"Don't you know the difference between you and me?" Yang Yu said calmly, "I know the difference in strength between you and me. But I won't let anyone bully me."

The attributes in all aspects are not low, but if you calculate carefully, they have not exceeded the scope of "ordinary people".
At least it has to reach Androno's level to be considered excellent.
She was able to get to this position mostly because of that special [Charm Girl].
The long whip was like a snake, winding and circling in the air. Asna attacked Yang Yu's shoulder without any warning. The speed was so fast that Yang Yu could not avoid it. Yang Yu had no choice but to let the whip hit his shoulder and took the blow head-on, losing more than 100 points of blood.
Asuna retracted the whip, her face full of mockery, "You don't think that I got to this position by relying on my charm, do you?"
"if not?"
Yang Yu chewed over the attack repeatedly in order to prepare for the response. The whip attack was more difficult to dodge than he thought, not only because of the huge attack range, but also because the whip attack would deform in the air, causing errors in judgment.
The reason she failed the first time was probably because she acted too hastily.
"You are really good at talking. I wonder how long you can keep being stubborn."
As she spoke, Asna swung out the whip again, drawing a strange arc in the air. Yang Yu stretched out his shield and used [Intercept]. The illusory shield was instantly deployed, allowing the whip to whip him, but [Intercept] did not completely block the damage of the whip, and he took 23 points of damage.
Yang Yu was right. Asuna's whip attack was a flying item type, which meant that [Shield Counter], a skill that required a certain melee range, could not be used to cause damage to Asuna.
Generally speaking, there are two ways to deal with an opponent using a whip. One is close combat, and the other is to use your skills as much as you can outside the whip's attack range.
Originally, if [Intercept] didn't work, Yang Yu planned to keep moving around on the periphery, use [Shield Counter] to get close, and not go in, letting Bai Jin finish off the enemy.
Now it seems that close combat is the only way to go.
Fortunately, thanks to that group of illegal workers, Asuna only has 300 HP left and is in a state of slight fatigue. With this much HP, as long as we can get close to her, we can still find a way to defeat her.
"Bai Jin! Prepare the curse magic. First, use [Healing Prohibition]. The rest are up to you. After that, use [Ice Arrow] to cover my advance."
From beginning to end, Yang Yu never forgot the existence of his teammates.
After a brief test, he commanded Bai Jin to launch an attack. Bai Jin's current mana and stamina were not enough to use skills at will, so every drop of mana must be used with caution.
After discussion, Bai Jin and Yang Yu agreed that, except for some special circumstances, Bai Jin would give priority to Yang Yu's arrangements.
Now, she chanted the curse magic, stretched out her staff, formed a magic circle at the front, and a dim purple light shot out at the speed of light and injected into Asuna's body. Then Bai Jin continued to weave other curse magic and threw them at Asuna one after another.
Asuna didn't take it seriously and continued to concentrate on swinging the whip at Yang Yu.
When Bai Jin had used up all her curse magic and was about to condense attack magic, Asuna directly took out a bottle of golden liquid from her clothes, opened the stopper and drank it from her mouth.
After drinking it all, she threw the bottle away and smashed it into pieces with the whip along with the ice arrow shot by Bai Jin.
"Haha." Asuna sneered, "You don't think that I have been fighting with those illegal workers for too long and I don't have the strength to deal with you? You think that as long as you continue to consume my physical strength, I will collapse without a fight. Now I will show you the power of our institute's most proud potion!"
Seeing Asna's health bar recovering instantly, Yang Yu focused his gaze. He originally thought that he could happily kill the low-health boss, but the boss was resurrected with full health.
Not only that, all her abnormal conditions disappeared and she became full of energy.
Why is [Treatment Prohibited] useless
Could it be that this potion removes all abnormal conditions first and then restores them
Isn't this too much of a rip-off
"Now, can you still smile like you did just now? Facing me in full strength, you have no chance of winning!"
Asuna swung the whip, Yang Yu stepped back and used [Shield Block] to block the attack.
"Good reaction ability. If you had not entered our institute in that way and caused trouble for us, but joined us through formal channels, perhaps in three to five years, you could have become one of the pillars of our Chamber of Commerce."
Asna was like a black cat that deliberately let go of its prey to play with it. She temporarily stopped attacking, admiring the prey's panic, hoping that the prey could find a ray of light in the darkness, trying her best, and then biting it into her mouth.
"Actually, I've always been curious. At that time, you should have been charmed by me. How did you get rid of my charm? Tell me, maybe I can spare your life and put you in jail for ten days or half a month. If you behave well, it's not impossible for you to work for the family."
Deliberately lengthening his voice, Yang Yu smiled, "Thank you very much for Asuna's appreciation. I think the reason why I can get rid of your charm is probably because I'm handsome!"
While speaking, Yang Yu was naturally not idle. He dialed the system, jumped to the fusion column, and threw the obtained racial essence into the sugar-making machine.
With his current abilities, he had no chance of winning if he continued to fight. Only by raising the level cap and completing the task of defeating the source could he have a chance of survival.
