The fire didn’t burn for long, just less than half an hour, and the forest in front of them had already been burnt to the ground.
Who knows what other materials Xi Qianxue added to make it burn so fast. However, no one asked at this ti. After all, it was her own secret.
The Half-Beastn in the rear saw the fire disappearing and imdiately charged again, shouting, "Revenge for our leader. Charge!"
The Half-Beastn had gone mad, in revenge for Lucas; even at the cost of their lives, they would rush forward. Lucas was their hero, without Lucas, how would the Half-Beastn survive.
Now, these Half-Beastn felt as if they had lost everything, their world had collapsed, they didn’t care about anything else.
"It’s been half an hour, haven’t they cald down yet?" Du You, hearing the distant shouting, felt helpless.
Standing on a planned route, Du You waited in a relatively safe place for the Half-Beastn to approach.
Just a short ti later, the Half-Beastn stomping upon the burnt ground, indifferent to the burns on their feet, appeared before everyone. Their ferocious appearance and twisted faces inspired fear in many.
"Slaughter those bastards," Lao Er roared, grabbing an ax and throwing it. This ax had been thrown as a weapon by the Half-Beastn earlier; no one knew when Lao Er had picked it up.
The ax in Lao Er’s hand, aided by Dou Qi, carried a powerful gust of wind, splitting a Half-Beastn’s head in half. The montum didn’t cease there, continuing to hack into another’s shoulder, rendering the arm useless.
The Half-Beastn did not care about anything on the road at this point. Wherever they saw people, they charged. As a result, various traps on the road were triggered, no matter how obvious they were. Consequently, various situations occurred on the Half-Beastn’s side.
Those who weren’t tripped up were tied up by ropes, or impaled by wooden spikes on the ground. Whether they were dead or still alive, the most dangerous thing that followed was other people’s attacks. The soldiers’ spears and arrows, the students’ long-range attacks, and all sorts of magic spells were unleashed, causing the Half-Beastn at the forefront to fall.
After half an hour of rest, the students’ magic and stamina had largely recovered.
"Retreat while fighting, be aware of the trap locations, and protect yourselves," Xi Qianxue loudly instructed. She also used an unknown tool, and a voice sounded in their ears.
"When you’re in danger, hide behind the soldiers. Let them die if they must, and take care of yourself."
There was no helping it. This world was just a derived world, as long as the storyline wasn’t continued, everything would reset the next ti they entered, even the dead would be resurrected, so there was no need to worry. To many, even the people of the outer world were just storyline characters.
Sure enough, the students happily accepted these instructions and hid behind the soldiers.
The soldiers had no idea they had beco human shields. In combat, the common soldiers had only the Half-Beastn and fighting in their eyes. They wouldn’t be paying attention to others’ movents.
The fighting continued, and the traps were triggered one by one. But, by now, Lao Er had a gloomy expression.
"Damn it, why haven’t my traps been used? These Half-Beastn are too lucky," he complained.
"It’s not about luck, it’s so obvious, who would step on it?" Du You retorted impatiently. At the sa ti, a disintegration spell turned a nearby Half-Beastn into fragnts.
Among all the people here, Du You’s magic was the most abundant, it seed inexhaustible no matter how much he used.
The traps on the ground were indeed easily noticeable, covered only by a few branches. Even the pit underneath and the things inside the pit could be seen. Even a beast wouldn’t fall into such an obvious trap, let alone a Half-Beastn. The Half-Beastn, although currently frenzied, wouldn’t willingly run into these traps.
"You should just give up on the traps, it really isn’t suitable for you," the elder also chid in.
Several scarecrows were constantly accompanying and protecting the elder. Combined with the hand crossbow in his hand, even though the damage it dealt wasn’t that strong, it was more than enough to protect him.
"Who says it’s useless, I insist it will be useful," Lao Er angrily rebutted, then ran towards the front.
"Hey, where are you going, are you seeking death? Co back!" Du You shouted in alarm.
The elder just sighed and covered his forehead with his hand.
Sure enough, it didn’t take long for Lao Er to do sothing that left everyone speechless. He discarded the attacks of the Half-Beastn using the defense of his armor, used brute force to seize and throw away a Half-Beastn’s ax.
Afterward, Lao Er carried a struggling Half-Beastn back. "I told you this trap would definitely work," Lao Er shouted triumphantly as he threw the Half-Beastn into the trap...
That’s right, it wasn’t that the Half-Beastn fell into it, but Lao Er threw them in by himself.
"What the hell are you doing, Fang Shuo!" Daniu roared in anger from a distance. This idiot, couldn’t he see what was happening?
"Nothing, just proving that my trap is useful." Well, everyone around heard that. Is this how traps are supposed to be used? It was more like an active trap.
Normally, traps were set and the hunters waited for the prey to trigger them. Who heard of soone capturing an enemy and throwing them into the trap? Worse still, there was nothing inside the trap.
The Half-Beastn thrown into the pit was definitely roughed up, but it didn’t die. After recovering, he tried to climb out again.
The pit seed a bit small. "Bastard, you dare to climb out after falling into a trap? Who gave you the guts?" Lao Er looked a little flushed as he kicked the Half-Beastn back down.
Everyone around was speechless, thinking how ridiculous this was.
"Stop ssing around, finish him off quickly, we have more important things to deal with." More and more Half-Beastn were charging over.
With a sigh, the elder fired an arrow at the Half-Beastn. The crossbow ammunition in his hand was incredibly poisonous. Once this shot landed, the Half-Beastn stopped breathing shortly after.
Lao Er scratched his head, seeming to realize he had done sothing stupid. But with his thick skin, he soon forgot about it. Dragging his giant ax, he found more enemies and engaged in fierce close-quarter combat with the Half-Beastn. Since the temporary armor on Lao Er was so strong, normal Half-Beastn were simply unable to break through his defense.
