Chapter 115: Adrenaline Syringe

Along the way, skeleton monsters kept attacking Su Ming.

They tried to block his advance.

But by now, more than half of the undead army was dead, and Su Ming had littered the area with their corpses.

The undead on the field were sparse, the threat greatly reduced, and the density far lower than at the start.

That was why Su Ming dared to focus all his efforts on the elites.

Su Ming charged forward, ignoring the attacks of the surrounding minor undead.

He didn't even need to defend.

Because he had a weapon strapped to his lower back.

[Withered Bone Meteor · Chain Hammer]

It could automatically activate the [Master-Protecting Spirit Hammer] affix.

Its chain links rattled and flashed, whipping and smashing behind Su Ming like a spirit snake.

It batted away every attack directed at him.

But facing such dense offensives, it couldn't intercept everything, so Su Ming still had to pay slight attention to his rear.

Fortunately, it was a close call, and Su Ming successfully reached the vicinity of the elite monsters.

A tide of minor monsters surged in from behind!

To fight five elite monsters while surrounded by a mob.

The risk was immense!

But Su Ming had no other choice!

He stood tall, gripping his dual swords.

With a few stylish turns and mysterious footwork, he advanced several meters using the Lingbo Micro-Steps.

Arriving before the scythe-wielding undead, he directly activated Hidden Sword Slash!

With both swords in their sheaths, Su Ming moved as fast as a streak of light.

Both swords simultaneously activated [Hidden Sword Slash].

Lightning flashed, and the Fierce Thunder Enchanted Sword was also activated.

Both were Platinum-grade skills; stacked together, their power was terrifying.

Plus, Su Ming was activating them with both swords at once!

The power was boosted significantly.

Rumble!

The thunder was deafening, and fierce lightning mixed with blood-red light swirled around the blades.

Su Ming struck.

There was no sound of a sword.

Only a bolt of lightning replaced the sound and light of the swing.

The effect of [Drunken Sword Style] also triggered simultaneously.

A pale white sword aura flowed out, heading straight for the scythe-wielding undead.

One could say three major skills were unleashed at once.

All to kill it!

Under the 30-fold power bonus of the Origin Sword Body, Su Ming’s combat power was truly terrifying.

This sword strike cut horizontally across.

It completely annihilated seven or eight minor monsters along the way.

A massive gash was cut into the scythe-wielding undead’s body, and rotting flesh and bone fragments spilled out.

Its eyes were dazed, filled with disbelief.

Su Ming’s strike had instantly reduced its health by 72%!

Because it wasn't an elite monster focused on defense, its health was thinner.

This only highlighted the potency of Su Ming’s swordsmanship.

If it were any other Third-Turn team facing such an elite, it would take dozens, if not hundreds, of skills to kill it.

After piercing through its body, Su Ming immediately delivered a second strike with lightning speed.

[Holy Attribute Enchantment] activated.

A layer of golden radiance swirled around the Long Xiang broken sword.

It pierced directly through the creature’s skull.

A clean kill!

[Slayed Scythe-Wielding Undead Elite]

[Experience +67890]

[Loot: Gray Bone War Scythe (Platinum Low-Grade)]

[Muscle Strengthening Potion (Silver High-Grade) X1]

After the biggest threat died, there was no joy on Su Ming’s face.

Because the remaining elites were enraged!

The four elites unleashed powerful skills at Su Ming.

The momentum was massive, the killing intent suffocating.

They surrounded Su Ming tightly in the center, leaving him nowhere to hide!

And they were all using wide-area skills.

Su Ming had taken a huge risk to kill the scythe-wielding undead, charging into the very center.

So now, he had nowhere to escape!

Even a Diamond-grade movement technique like Lingbo Micro-Steps was too slow!

[God-Hiding Step] was activated in desperation.

Su Ming’s already low mental energy was completely exhausted.

His body turned into an untargetable, blurry black shadow.

The attacks passed through Su Ming’s semi-transparent body, yet he remained completely unaffected.

He vanished from the level of the rules themselves.

Almost like teleporting, he appeared in the distance.

His body a black shadow, Su Ming landed on the ground.

A trickle of blood flowed from his nose.

This was... a sign of mental energy exhaustion.

"Is this my physical limit..."

Su Ming muttered, a sense of loss in his eyes.

He had sublimated many items just now, but hadn't obtained a single item related to mental energy recovery.

It was as if heaven wanted him dead.

"Sigh... I have no choice but to use my most precious item, the [Potent Vampire Potion]."

After using it, he would turn into a vampire for 1 hour.

All stats would be fully restored.

That way, Su Ming would definitely pass this challenge.

But that item was extremely precious and could significantly boost combat power.

And it had no side effects.

Su Ming had intended to save it for a life-saving moment.

But now, forced by the situation, he had to consume it!

"I once told others to keep moving forward."

"I, of course, must practice what I preach!"

Su Ming clenched his fists, gripping the Long Xiang broken sword tightly.

He made up his mind.

He took an item from his personal space.

[Muscle Strengthening Potion]

This was dropped by the scythe-wielding undead.

"Sublimate it, one last gamble!"

"If I fail, I'll use the vampire potion!"

Su Ming gripped the potion tightly and directly used Sublimation of All Things.

[Sublimation Successful!]

[Obtained: Adrenaline Syringe (Diamond Mid-Grade)]

He checked the data.

[Adrenaline Syringe (Diamond Mid-Grade)]

[A one-time item containing various elements, including: large amounts of pure adrenaline, temporary physical enhancement fluid, and body strengthening fluid.]

[Effect: Shuts down pain nerves, deducts 95% of maximum health, and your actions will no longer consume stamina or mental energy.]

[Duration: 3 seconds]

[Cost: After the effect wears off, your body will suffer major trauma, determined by the quantity and quality of skills used beyond your limit during this period, but it will not be fatal.]

Su Ming’s eyes trembled!

An adrenaline syringe!?

It had actually jumped from Silver grade to Diamond Mid-Grade.

Crossing several major quality tiers.

"Hahahaha! Heaven truly never closes all doors!"

Su Ming laughed toward the sky, a hint of madness flashing in his eyes!

His luck was truly off the charts.

This substance could only be extracted by human technology before the Awakening Day.

It was considered a type of cardiac stimulant.

After the Awakening Day, physical rules changed, and all technological principles failed.

Modern humans no longer had any means to extract this substance.

It was almost completely lost.

This substance was secreted in small amounts in everyone’s body, making people excited and strong.

Just 0.3 milligrams could pull a half-dead person back to the land of the living, forcibly extending their life.

It could even save those in cardiac arrest.

Doctors in the past would inject this liquid into critically ill patients.

It was a temporary life-saving miracle drug.

Before the Awakening Day, there was a saying in the Dragon Kingdom: "What is the concept of using adrenaline?"

The answer: "It means you can go to the underworld, punch the King of Hell, and run back."

For ordinary people, an overdose of this substance would cause blood pressure to skyrocket and lead to death by cerebral hemorrhage.

But for a class-changer like Su Ming, the tolerable dosage was multiplied countless times.

Roughly speaking, there was at least 20 milliliters in this syringe.

Su Ming didn't hesitate and plunged it directly into his arm.

[Injection Successful!]
