Chapter 415: Chapter 386, Quicksand Trap_2
He cast a Frost Armor on himself in case of unexpected situations.
The number of members from each mercenary corps kept decreasing as the fight went on.
Although their own team had suffered no casualties yet, they would be in danger if all the others were killed.
He was contemplating whether to hide first, and then let the Bone Dragon breathe over this area.
This thought just arose in his mind.
Out of Fang Hao’s corner of his eye, he saw the Dragon Scale mercenaries not only staving off the white monkeys’ attacks but also swiftly moving towards the right side.
They swiftly pulled out an earth-colored spell scroll and immediately opened it near the wall of the Stone Castle.
The ground underneath the Dragon Scale mercenaries gave the impression it was starting to churn.
The very next second, an earthen wall rose, forming an oval earth-yellow cover, enveloping all the team members inside.
The appearance of the earth elemental magic defense attracted everyone’s attention.
“Damn it! Pulimo, what do you mean by this?”
“Dragon Scale, you cowards, hiding like turtles at this time!”
“Damn it, retreat, we ain’t gonna fight anymore.”
“Retreat, we ain’t gonna fight anymore.”
Seeing the Dragon Scale mercenaries huddle within the defense of earth elemental magic, all the other bands of mercenaries promptly quit.
Apart from cursing, most people directly led their team to flee.
But human speed could not compare to the four-limbed rush of the monkeys.
The fights resumed before they could leave the reach of the Stone Castle.
“Demitrija…!” Fang Hao whispered.
“Understood, master!”
Demitrija agreed and took a deep breath before exhaling a cloud of mist.
It shielded their team.
Their team was small to begin with, and the range of the mist wasn’t vast.
The intelligence of the white monkeys was evidently low; they stopped in their tracks, turning to attack the other teams when they saw their targets disappear in the mist.
The multiple bands of mercenaries fell one by one, annihilated by the attacking white monkeys.
…
Not too far off.
Eric sat on the ground, visibly exhausted.
His once-fine armor was now covered in scratches.
The man was soaked in blood, sitting there powerless.
“Mr Fang Hao, are you still alive?” Eric shouted.
All his people were dead.
Only he was left, who had survived by sheer luck, after having fallen into a collapsed coffin.
But he wouldn’t live much longer either.
He looked at the fog rising on one side, remembering that was where Fang Hao’s team was stationed.
Perhaps Fang Hao and his team were still alive.
Seeing several white monkeys licking their lips and approaching, he shouted towards the direction of the fog.
But the fog was thick, making it impossible to see the conditions inside.
“Ah, what am I thinking? There’s no way they could survive,” Eric murmured, shaking his head bitterly.
He would not only get himself killed for taking this goddamn risk but his subordinates as well.
He would die here.
Despite owning property in the city, and already having chosen a name for his first child with Miss Rolana, he was on the verge of death.
Sensing the white monkey charging at him, he closed his eyes.
Just as he was cursing inwardly and ready to give up staying alive just to kill these white monkeys.
Whoosh!
A flying sound swiftly emerged.
When he forcefully opened his eyes, he saw a fiery arrow explode in front of him.
A white monkey, flying towards him, was sent tumbling several metres away.
Immediately after, a figure rushed towards him at high speed.
He recognized her as Anjia, the orc girl from Fang Hao’s team.
Wasn’t she the maid by Fang Hao’s side?
How could she be so fast?
Anjia rushed in front of him, grabbed his neck, and tossed him into the mist.
He felt himself being lifted off and surrounded by the whistling wind.
The next second, he landed, feeling dizzy, only to see Fang Hao’s team drinking water and looking at him.
What was going on?
Everyone was fighting frantically outside, and they were enjoying tea here?
At this moment, Anjia, who had gone to rescue him, also rushed back.
The three white monkeys chasing her were casually eliminated by the Lizardmen.
“Mr Fang Hao….” Eric got up clumsily, murmuring lowly.
“Eric, what happened to your team? Why are you the only one left?” Fang Hao asked.
The attack by the white monkeys had driven all the teams apart.
They didn’t pay attention to Eric’s situation, but it seemed the current positions weren’t promising.
“Ah! I’m the only one left.” Eric’s expression was one of utter despair.
The injuries on his body made him seem like a blood man, his face was significantly paler, too.
“Do you have a healing potion?” Fang Hao checked his injuries and asked nonchalantly.
Eric had large wounds on his left shoulder and chest.
His leather armor should be of high-quality, or else he would have died from these kinds of attacks a long time ago.
“I’ve already drank it.” Eric grimaced, holding onto his injury.
The temporary safety made his wounds start to ache.
Fang Hao took out a bottle of anesthetic medicine and had him drink it.
Eric’s facial expression seemed to have eased down quite a bit. After drinking some water, he sat aside and started resting.
The battle outside the mist gradually began to calm down.
Besides the Dragon Scale mercenaries using the Earth Elemental Scroll, Fang Hao’s team cast a Misty Sky.
There were no other mercenary squads that survived in the cemetery.
Maybe some of them managed to escape, but most stayed behind.
Taking a glance at the Dragon Scale mercenary, Fang Hao noticed the earth magic defense still hadn’t been lifted. Thinking for a moment, he directly used God’s Presence to contact the two Bone Dragons flying above.
