Chapter 24: Abandoning the Soldier and Protecting the Commander

Zhou Xun used his shield to closely guard the sectarians in the team, but retreated continuously under the attack of the Qab thrower. Zhang Juan, Sun Jianye and Wang Jun cast magic from time to time after Zhou Xun's shield. Their troops also played their respective roles at this time. Those who were good at fighting in close combat kept fighting around or defended the impact of the evil wolf fighters. Those who attacked far away were attacking with Sun Jianye and others, and they would retreat when they were seriously injured. Zheng Haitao closely observed their status and provided treatment and assistance at any time.

As for Cao Dayong, Zhang Debiao, Cai Chang and Wu Tongtong, the soldiers they were leading were arranged behind Zhou Xun, and they formed a triangular attack formation. With Cao Dayong in front, Zhang Debiao and Cai Chang were on the left and right, like a vertebrae, constantly rushing against the monsters, and at the same time, they were also constantly walking around and detouring to prevent being surrounded by the evil wolf fighters.

Wu Tongtong kept walking tightly among the three, constantly giving assistance to the three people around her. However, since the triangle combination was always in high-speed sports wars, Wu Tongtong, who lacked magic, could only cast some spells with short casting time but low healing power to treat Cao Dayong. Zhang Debiao and Cai Chang drank the blood recovery potion that they usually wouldn't want to use. Every time, the effect of a bottle of blood recovery potion was just over, no matter how much blood was left on their body, they immediately drank another bottle. This was to allow Wu Tongtong's healing technique to be used as much as possible on Cao Dayong who was rushing in front. As Cao Dayong, who was the tip of the vertebra, their combination would collapse immediately. Without them who could disturb the monsters, Zhou Xun and the others would be quickly surrounded and annihilated by the wolf fighter and the Kabu thrower. During this period, they were surrounded by dangers.

However, it is gratifying that in this almost tragic battle, the barbarian fighters and the Kabu throwers were eliminated one by one, and many good things were exposed. Everyone saw the hope of victory at this time and forgot the injuries on their bodies. They were all excited and their attacks became more sharp. Cao Dayong and the others took this opportunity to attack the Kabu throwers.

These Kabuki throwers holding flying axes were obviously at a loss when they saw the enemy approaching. The flying axes used for throwing were too short and suffered a loss in melee battles. More than a dozen throwers were killed by Cao Dayong and others in the blink of an eye. Cao Dayong and others did not greed for slaughtering the throwers, but immediately penetrated back to their front line. Because just when they penetrated behind the enemy, the evil wolf knights in front were almost unable to stop Zhou Xun and the others because there was no one to stop them.

When Cao Dayong came back, the time was right, and a front and back attack on the evil wolf fighters formed on the battlefield. Victory seemed to be waved to them.

Zhou Xun and the others faced the attacks of the remaining few cardboard throwers, and in just a few minutes, they successfully eliminated all the evil wolf fighters under the front and back attacks. Cao Dayong and the other four called their respective troops to turn and rush towards the remaining few cardboard throwers. Just as Cao Dayong rushed to the thrower and was about to cut them down, the black shadow in the woods next to them flashed, and Cai Chang beside him screamed, "Beware!!"

A white light flashed, and Cao Dayong subconsciously raised his sword to block it. A huge impact knocked him back several steps. As soon as he opened his eyes, the level 47-level orcs running towards him was actually a level 47-level orc warrior. He quickly looked behind the orc warrior. If it were just one or two orc warriors, they would still have some strength, but Cao Dayong and the other four saw at least twenty orcs rushing towards him from the woods.

Cao Dayong immediately turned around and shouted to Zhou Xun: "Cancel the mission quickly, you go back to your room and return to the city!"

The sudden change in the matter made Zhou Xun a little dazed for a moment. Fortunately, he was also a professional captain after all, so he instantly reacted and ran towards the room in the village, shouting to Sun Jianye and others beside him: "Come on, hurry up and follow me!"

When Sun Jianye, Zhang Juan and others followed Zhou Xun to a house, Zhou Xun decisively gave up the task, closed the door, and shouted: "Hurry up and use the scroll back to the city!"

"Aren't you waiting for Captain Cao and the others?" Zheng Haitao asked hesitantly.

"Execute the order! Hurry up! They can't come back anymore!" Zhou Xun urged anxiously.

Zhang Juan, Sun Jianye, Wang Jun, and Zheng Haitao saw that the captain gave the death order, and successively used the scroll back to the city to release the scroll. However, the scroll still had a long time to read. Through the window in the house, they saw Cao Dayong and his troops surrounded by a group of orc warriors.

When Cao Dayong discovered the orc, he did not choose to retreat, but chose to continue to advance immediately, because if he chose to retreat, it would be impossible to complete the task, and it would cause Zhou Xun and others to enter a state of combat and cannot return to the city. At that time, the whole regiment would be destroyed. He asked Zhou Xun and others to go back to the house first because this would allow Zhou Xun and others to quickly get out of the state of combat and use the scroll of return to the city.

Zhou Xun and others watched Cao Dayong and the other two slowly fell under the giant axe of the orc warrior. In just a few minutes, they turned from winners to invalids, and experienced the mood from panic to excitement to despair!

After destroying Cao Dayong and the others, the orc warriors continued to wield the giant axe in their hands and rushed towards the village. They chopped and slaughtered the residents of the village all the way, and soon massacred the few and unresisting residents in the village to the end.

Seeing the villagers who were still serving clear water to thank them for their arrival and delivering only bread to their homes to the orcs died tragically under the orcs’ battle axe. Zhou Xun and others felt a burst of heartache, which was even more heartache than seeing Cao Dayong and the others fall down. After all, Cao Dayong and the others will be reborn, and these residents will disappear forever after being wiped out and will never appear on this continent again.

After massacring the residents, one of the orc warriors suddenly discovered Zhou Xun and others hiding in the room. He roared and rushed over. Two people who were slightly closer to him rushed over. He waved a giant axe and chopped the door. A few axes cut the wooden door almost torn apart. Fortunately, at this time, the time for Zhou Xun and others to return to the city scroll to read the time, and a white light flashed, and everyone returned to the teleportation array of Serda City one after another.

In the teleportation array of Serda City, Zhou Xun looked at his teammates around him. Fortunately, except for Cao Dayong and the others, no one was interrupted at the last moment and returned safely. After looking at his teammates, Zhou Xun sighed and said, "Let's go to the assembly point first, Dayong and the others should come back too. Let's find a way after meeting!"

An hour later, Zhou Xun and nine people sat at a table in the Winsen bar in the North City District. The atmosphere seemed a bit heavy, after all, this blow was still very big for them.

Touching the cup in his hand, Zhou Xun looked up at his teammates and said, "First of all, I want to apologize to everyone here, because I did not fully study the content of the task, which directly led to the failure of this task and made you pay a heavy price for it!"

Zhang Debiao said, "Damn, this mission is too perverted. Orcs can appear at this time. They are creatures of more than 40 levels. Isn't nnd master brain bullying people? It's so bad that there's not even a soldier now!"

Cao Dayong drank all the liquor in his glass in one sip, wiped his mouth and said, "It's not a big deal, I'll just come back, why should I apologize! Who knew that this task would be so difficult!"

"Yeah, the four of us are not at high levels now. We will be back after we have dropped the level and overtime. It's okay, the captain." Wu Tongtong also advised.

Next, Cai Chang smiled slightly and said, "Don't look at me like this, haha! I'm fine, I just have a little experience and a second-level Yuan**, just make it back! Everything goes smoothly. Through this failure, I can't tell that our team is really good. The reactions and handling measures of the two captains were very good, and the losses were minimized. It's much better than the captain of my previous team, so I believe I will make more money in the future than before, haha!" A few words made everyone laugh and the atmosphere relaxed!

Seeing the people who lost the most, Zhou Xun nodded and said in a serious tone: "Thank you for your understanding first. I will be more careful when taking on tasks in the future and will not be so blind. Now let's count our losses this time!"

After inquiring, Zhou Xun said: "In addition to the experience deducted by the four of you, Wu Tongshe dropped a hat. Fortunately, it was just ordinary equipment. As for all the troops killed, this is the most serious! Moreover, our indicators this month have just been handed over to the company, and I believe everyone is very tight. Let's see if you can get together first and buy all the troops of the four of them! In the future, it will be more than enough!"

Cai Chang smiled and said, "I don't want this! My second-level elemental soldier is about to change, but now I'm just dead. I'll go and see if there are any suitable third-level soldiers to buy one, Jianye! I'll be with me later. If it's not enough, please help me make up for it first?"

Sun Jianye nodded quickly and said, "Yeah, okay, I still have about 12 gold coins, I will hand them all in a while!"
