189 Chain Reaction
If something happened to Ivan, then Fang Ping’s team of small fries might not even be able to return to Elf City successfully, let alone go to the Forest of Elves.
Why are they still confronting each other here? Isn’t anyone going to help Ivan?
Fang Ping lowered his head and realized that Teacher Elsa and Van Helsing were also looking in Ivan’s direction.
Van Helsing’s mouth moved a few times. Fang Ping could not hear anything, but the shape of his mouth was easy to recognize.
!!
Boring.
“Su Dongxiong, are you old? You’ve been fighting these beasts for so long!”
Hearing Van Helsing’s shout, Ivan, who was being chased, stopped and was instantly drowned by the wild beasts.
“Ha!”
Fang Ping saw the big ball formed by the wild beasts explode. Broken limbs flew everywhere and scattered on the ground.
Only Ivan and the especially big Hound were still standing.
Many ants could bite an elephant to death.
But elephants can resist!
Elsa walked over to Van Helsing. “My brother doesn’t want to use skills. He’s accumulating energy.”
“Accumulate energy? He’s about to break through?”
Van Helsing seemed to know Ivan and Elsa.
Elsa shook her head and waved at Fang Ping, who was in the carriage. “What are you looking at? Come down and lead the team. Support the Lord’s Guards.”
“Support the Lord’s Guards? Miss Elsa, are you sure? Those wild beasts are all Class 2 and 3!”
Miss Elsa pointed at the guards of Machete City in front of her. They stood upright with crossbows in their hands and stared ahead.
“With them around, what are you doing here?”
Fang Ping grabbed the carriage frame and climbed down.
“Team, gather. We’ll support the Lord’s Guards.”
Unlike Fang Ping, who was slacking off, the rest of the team had a strong desire to fight.
The people gathered quickly, especially the row in front of Fang Ping. William, Andre, Lisa, and Mogotin were all over 1.8 meters tall.
Fang Ping took two steps back and said, “Everyone, listen to the instructions. The wild beasts are all Class 2 and 3. Don’t be radical.”
This was also a rare opportunity to fight against high-level Professionals.
However, it had nothing to do with Fang Ping.
“Close combat in front, ranged combat behind. Let’s go.”
The knights of the Lord’s Guard shuttled through the battlefield, chased by Hounds and Unicorns. At the same time, they had to dodge the Elemental bullets from the Chimeras in the sky and the pounces of Bats.
Fang Ping’s team advanced slowly. This was still within the range of the repeating crossbowmen. The wild beasts that had entered by mistake were all dead.
“Two o’clock to the left. Two injured adult Chimeras. Let’s go.”
Adult Chimeras were all Class 3. Their wings were pierced by the assault spear and they could not fly. They crawled to the edge of the battlefield with difficulty and met Fang Ping’s team.
Roar… Meh… Li…
The six heads roared at Fang Ping’s team.
“Qing Niao, Anthony, Mogotin, attract them over. The other Melee combatants, follow later and attack freely from afar.”
Fang Ping’s team did not have a proper Shield Warrior. Usually, they would use Qing Niao to attract firepower, as well as Anthony and Mogotin, who had the ability to protect themselves.
Theoretically speaking, it wouldn’t take long for fifty people to deal with two injured adult Chimeras. However, as soon as the Rangers in the back row raised their bows, a ball of white fog exploded between them and they couldn’t attack.
In the empty field, the thick fog quickly dissipated, but then another thick fog appeared.
The adult Chimera was stalling for time.
Not far away, some wild beasts heard their roars. They gave up on the pursuing cavalry and rushed towards Fang Ping’s team.
Fang Ping could not let the team retreat. The rapid crossbowmen’s firing speed was slow. If they faced too many enemies at once, their advantage in long-range suppression would be gone.
The Lord’s Guards were also sharing the pressure of the crossbowmen.
Even the crossbowmen and the wild beasts stood on the spot and faced each other. However, in reality, if either party split up, the other party would press forward.
Although Elsa said that they were their backing, rashly attracting wild beasts wasn’t a wise choice.
“William, Andre, Lisa, Black Star, attack the adult Chimera. The rest of the Melee combatants, retreat and defend.”
Fang Ping’s team members’ levels were not high, but they had basically all awakened. More importantly, their equipment was luxurious.
Fang Ping estimated that it should not be a problem for four people to fight two injured Class 3 adult Chimeras.
He looked into the distance and saw five wild beasts rushing over. He could still deal with them.
There were two large Hounds, a huge Giant Scarlet Bat, and two Chimeras.
However, as they used summoning skills, the number doubled to more than ten.
“White Snow, Jeanne, Feng Ling, Stacy, deal with the large Hound on the left, Red Camelia Snake, Bianca…”
Fang Ping was assigning long-distance targets to avoid overlapping attacks. Then, he looked at the adult Chimera on the other side.
Those four were all rich people. They had many life-saving treasures on them, so there was no need to worry too much.
However, the actual situation was different from what Fang Ping had imagined. Not only were they not at a disadvantage, but they were also about to win.
An adult Chimera’s three heads had been cut off. Its entire body was lying on the ground, close to death.
The other one was in a similarly bad state. Lisa chased and hit it. The staff in her hand glowed white.
The three heads kept wailing. It was almost impossible to tell who was the Class 3.
It should be settled over there.
Continuing to look ahead, the wild beast was approaching.
Beasts did not have any armor, and their characteristics and professions were very simple. They were actually not as threatening as Gnomes.
After that, there was nothing for Fang Ping to do.
Fang Ping’s team had more actual combat experience than Fang Ping. They knew what to do next, whether to focus their attacks or control the restrictions.
Fang Ping was now paying attention to the movements of the other wild beasts in the distance. He wanted to see if any other wild beasts came over and provide them with some protection in times of danger.
“Armor Forbidden Spell!”
The large Hound raised its claws high and swept them across. Before a person could react, Fang Ping quickly used an Armor Forbidden Spell on him.
The golden membrane blocked the sharp claws. Fang Ping also heard the clinking of silver coins.
That person was Gran.
But Gran was still standing where he was. He didn’t move. No one knew what he was doing. On the battlefield, he was courting death.
Fang Ping quickly gave the order. “Iron Head, stop the large Hounds. Anthony, Mai Wen, save Gran.”
The butterfly flapped its wings.
The situation on the battlefield immediately changed. The wild beasts grabbed this and attacked fiercely. Even if Gran was only one of the fifty people, the chain reaction was huge.
“Steady the formation, Anthony. Back to the battlefield.”
Mai Wen limped as he dragged Gran back. Fang Ping quickly ran over to receive him. “Leave it to me. You go back.”
“Okay.”
Fang Ping dragged Gran back. His eyes were closed, and there was no reaction. He did not know what was wrong. Was it a sudden illness?
He dragged him to the back of the ranged team and threw him to the ground. If he didn’t die, he would wait until the battle ended.
After a small interlude, their counterattack was quickly suppressed. However, under their roars, more wild beasts ran over.
“Fang Ping, I think I can do it.”
It was Qing Niao’s voice.
He had always been at the front, bearing the damage. However, he had always kept a low profile and did not attack, all for the sake of continuously stacking his Faith characteristic.
