166 Retreat
At the very least, Elsa was an Epic-ranked powerhouse, and Sif and her guards could still put up a fight.
As he ran forward, Fang Ping could see the light ahead. It was a small semicircle, glowing with a faint white light. That should be the exit of the cave.
As he ran forward, the expressions of the people around him began to change. After running for a while, Fang Ping heard it too.
It was not just Fang Ping’s team’s footsteps. Various noises came from afar. Rumbling explosions, sharp sounds of metal clashing, wails, and roars intertwined.
!!
“Mu Xi, can you use your characteristics now?”
“No, it can’t be used until tomorrow morning.”
After a moment of silence, Elsa shouted, “Put out the torches. Melee combatants in front, ranged combatants behind. Everyone, accelerate and prepare for battle.”
Fang Ping held the Starry Sky Staff in his hand and pulled down the visor of his helmet. He placed the Golden Body Potion, Guardian Command Potion, and Healing Potion in a suitable position and watched as the cave exit got closer and closer.
Outside the cave, light flowed everywhere.
Swords, sabers, armors, and all kinds of skills burst out with gorgeous light.
The two Chimeras fought in the air. Magic bullets of various colors flew everywhere. Claws clawed and wings flapped. Six heads tore at the air.
The Demon Flame Chimera couldn’t use any skills, but it was still not at a disadvantage against the leader of the Chimera pack.
There were three long bloody wounds on Su Dongxiong’s chest. His thick armor rolled outwards, and blood dripped from below.
“Hahaha, Clegane, it’s been so many years. Even if you have the power, you still can’t beat me!” The iron fists collided with a loud sound.
“Woof…” A tall hunting dog lowered its body and stared at Su Dongxiong covetously. It bared its snow-white sharp teeth and its eyes were filled with hostility.
His figure was comparable to a small car. All the muscles in his body were bulging, and his round eyes were glowing red under the faint moonlight.
The most special thing was that there was a huge iron ring around his neck. Two long and thick chains hung on both sides of his body.
Clegane turned and charged at a knight in the distance.
“Your opponent is me!”
Su Dongxiong’s feet exploded as he sped up to catch up.
…
When he reached the entrance of the cave, the moonlight shone down from the sky. Fang Ping could clearly see the chaotic battle outside.
In the air, on the ground, there were battles. Cavalry moved through the battlefield, hounds and unicorns chasing after them. The Gem Beast=s’ pine cones sliced through the air in dense arcs. Some were thrown off their horses by bats. Others thrust a spear through the Lizard’s head.
Layers of corpses lay on the ground. There were all kinds of wild beasts and humans.
Some knights died in battle, and their warhorses ran aimlessly on the battlefield. They were touched by the aftershock of a few skills and turned into energy that dissipated.
This was a meat grinder. The Lord’s Guards and beasts were involved.
No one had noticed Fang Ping’s team at the edge of the battlefield yet. Fang Ping only hoped that he would not be the commander this time.
The melodious sound of the zither could be heard.
All the gazes on the battlefield immediately focused.
At the same time, the red circle of light under their feet quickly extended and covered nearly half of the soldiers.
Orange light occasionally lit up on the cavalrymen’s bodies, as well as the black light that descended from the beasts.
At this moment, Elsa officially became the focus of the battlefield.
“Woof woof!”
Clegane was the commander-in-chief of these beasts. With his order, all the beasts looked over.
How could Su Dongxiong, who was chasing Clegane, let him command in peace? He immediately threw a punch. Clegane raised his right front foot and hurriedly blocked it. With a crack, his right front foot was broken.
“Oook!”
Clegane slapped the ground and forced Su Dongxiong to retreat.
When Fang Ping’s team entered the battlefield, their special characteristics would not take effect. He was no match for Su Dongxiong.
Power: Strength +3 when the number of enemy soldiers present is less than or equal to your own.
Under Clegane’s command, the beast charged toward the cave’s exit.
Fang Ping could not understand why Teacher Elsa was doing this. Fang Ping’s team was not strong to begin with, yet she exposed herself on the battlefield?
“Everyone, attack!”
While playing, Teacher Elsa’s voice rang out. Fang Ping looked at the powerful wild beasts charging toward him and raised his cane. “Summon the Boiling Blood Trolls, summon the Rabbit-man Hunter.”
1,000 energy points were depleted at once, and the rest were conserved to use on protection skills.
Fang Ping’s team, especially the Melee fighters, were also conflicted.
The Raging Hound, which had a special characteristic of Running and was generally at Class 2 or 3, and the Phantom Unicorn were quickly approaching. If they took the initiative to attack now, wouldn’t they be courting death?
Not to mention attacking, even standing on the spot without escaping was akin to courting death.
William rushed out, followed by Andre, Black Star, Lisa, and the other leaders.
The people behind took out Golden Body potions or speed potions and held them in their hands. Then, they raised their weapons and rushed forward with the people in front.
Clang! Clang!
The sound of the zither changed, and two heavy notes sounded. The entire feeling of the music changed, and the melodious sound of the zither became magnificent.
What changed at the same time was not just the sound of the zither.
Clang! Clang!
The red halo under his feet had a golden ring around it. Fang Ping could clearly feel that his physical fitness had been enhanced.
Clang! Clang!
Outside the golden-red circle of light, there was a ring of purple. Three purple shields appeared around Fang Ping’s body. Magic shields.
Clang! Clang!
Outside the three circles of gold, red, and purple, a circle of orange light appeared. Fang Ping did not feel anything special, but this effect would definitely not be weak.
In the beginning, the people who rushed out had a difficult expression on their faces, as if they were willing to die. Now that the four halos appeared, all of them roared as if they had been pumped with adrenaline. They raised their weapons and rushed towards the wild beasts, their faces filled with excitement.
Then reality immediately slapped them.
Even with the enhancement of four halos, Level 1 and 2 still could not defeat Level 2 and 3.
Several people were knocked down and sent flying. They hurriedly drank potions and were protected by others before they could retreat.
Hounds and Unicorns with special characteristics were not live targets like Lizards.
Fang Ping could hear someone shouting in front of him, “Keep them occupied and stall for time.”
Fang Ping’s team did not receive enough buffs to reverse the situation. The Lord’s Guards not far away were different. Under the enhancement of the four halos, they were like tigers with wings, forcing the wild beasts to retreat repeatedly.
The Rabbit-man Hunter appeared beside Fang Ping and followed the other rangers, shooting arrows one after another.
There was no halo under her body, so she could not obtain any buffs.
Fang Ping looked at the Elves not far away. A few Elves shielded Sif behind them, showing no intention of participating in the battle.
There was also no halo under their feet.
Only humans could enjoy Elsa’s buffs.
“Woof, woof, woof!”
In the distance, Clegane the Hound reared his head and howled. The beasts immediately threw out their skills, then fled in all directions.
Fang Ping’s Boiling Blood Troll had barely taken a few steps forward when he saw the wild beasts running away not far away. He wasted his energy.
“Cavalry, chase! Don’t let them get away!”
