When the first deserter appeared, the psychological burden of fleeing was lifted from the others.
"Nobody runs, stop, stop, did you hear !" the Director of External Affairs bellowed, but his shout was aningless.
In the chaos, those few people who had initially followed Bai Fu also started to contemplate escaping.
Although Cao Wenliang had repeatedly instructed them to confirm Bai Fu's death with their own eyes before coming, who cared about that now? The priority was to run.
One of them, while rubbing his swollen eyes, ran towards the exit.
As he ran, he stopped.
"Bai Fu?"
On the blood-soaked road, Bai Fu blocked his path.
He was startled at first, then beca excited.
It was unexpected that Bai Fu was still alive, but it didn't matter, for soon Bai Fu would die by his hand, and he could report back to Cao Wenliang.
"You're not dead, that's great!" he said, laughing as he walked over, stealthily resting his hand on the hilt of his knife.
Bai Fu nodded, "You have a really tough life."
"Not too bad, not too bad."
"But this is as far as it goes."
"Huh?"
The Wildfire Gang mber hadn't grasped what was happening when he felt a sharp pain in his abdon. Looking down, he saw a knife buried in his stomach, twisting rapidly, held by Bai Fu's hand.
You!
Thump—
When the knife was pulled out, he fell to the ground and his eyes stared wide like bronze bells until his consciousness faded.
[You have killed a Wildfire Gang Chief (Elite), 100% Contribution awarded, adjusted for level difference, you receive 540 experience points.]
Bai Fu wiped the blood from her knife and continued to search for her next target; she soon found an injured Wildfire Gang mber inside the stronghold.
"Co with , this way."
"Bai Fu? You're alive? How did you..."
"Sobody kicked as they passed by just now, and I woke up. I took the opportunity to break free from the ropes. Alright, follow quickly, I'll get you out first, and then co back for the others."
"Thank you, thank you, without you, I might have died here today."
The injured mber was deeply touched and hurriedly followed her.
Bai Fu's silhouette wasn't particularly imposing, but thinking about the recent event, he felt an unprecedented sense of security.
This ti Bai Fu did not kill, because she needed a witness.
After escorting the injured mber out, she secretly circled back to the stronghold's main entrance.
At this ti, the battle near the main entrance had also temporarily co to an end; the Director of External Affairs had knocked down more than twenty players in one go.
With his stats, under normal circumstances, even if among the players there were those like Patrick, known for their skillful play, or those like Afu who fought fiercely without regard for their lives, and despite the continuous arrival of reinforcents, it would still be hard for him to be injured.
After all, players could only inflict one or two points of damage on him, while he could damage players by ten or twenty points.
But just as he was fighting, he suddenly felt an upset stomach and was shot in the knee by a player's arrow when the opportunity presented itself.
A knee injury made it difficult to move, and the inability to move quickly ant he couldn't finish off the players swiftly. In the prolonged fight, he began to accumulate more wounds and was gradually feeling overwheld.
"Damn it, too strong, this isn't a foe we should be dealing with at our level."
"Don't get cocky, once I get the materials, I'll make an Earth Bomb and blow you up!"
"Ah, my right hand, my Power of the King!"
As soon as Bai Fu ca out, she saw a player whose right hand had been chopped off rolling on the ground in pain.
She hurriedly called out to the Director of External Affairs, "Director!"
"Bai Fu? Why are you here?"
Like the others, the Director of External Affairs was stunned upon seeing Bai Fu.
"Director, never mind for now. The outsiders have sent reinforcents. Continuing to fight is not worth the loss. Let's get out of here, I'll cover you!"
The Director of External Affairs turned around.
He could faintly hear more shouting in the distance.
"Damn, those sneaky Wildfire goons, let's gang up on them, stab their asses!"
These outsiders just wouldn't give it a rest.
Infuriated yet relieved, the Director of External Affairs was glad that Bai Fu, though not strong, was soone who would never betray. Having her cover the retreat added a sense of security.
"Let's go!"
He limped towards Bai Fu.
Seeing his relieved expression, Bai Fu clenched her fists tightly in secret.
This was settled.
In the eyes of the players, she was a good person who inford them and considered their well-being.
In the eyes of the Wildfire Gang, she was a good person who would rather die than betray, considering only the gang's interests.
Doing one thing and gaining Affinity from both sides—what's this if not a win-win!
