Chapter XXVII: Retreat
When many mercenaries heard Dorne's shout, they felt like they had taken stimulants, especially the mercenaries under Dorne, whose faces were flushed, as if they had killed the monster leader.
Il smiled even more, looking at Dorne's side with a look of envy.
"One day, I'll be extraordinary, and I'll be better than everyone else!"
He secretly made up his mind, and at the same time he was more ruthless in the face of his enemies, and the degree of his moves made Hood on the side look a little frightened.
This shout seemed to break the last line of defense in the heart of the cranial orangutan archer, and after feeling the demise of a transcendent kindred again, the giant orangutan was afraid.
So he let out a deafening roar, turned around and ran, without even glancing at Zhao Xi and the others opposite.
Zhao Xi originally thought that these two mobile experiences were about to be available, but he didn't expect this vicious monster to escape like this.
If it were in an ordinary forest, Zhao Xi would definitely not let go of this big experience pack, but he was now in such a dangerous Black Forest, and running around at this time would be looking for death.
In such a large forest, it is said that there are not a few monsters above level 20 who killed Zhao Xi, he doesn't believe it, if he meets one casually, he definitely has only one way to escape.
So although the experience is good, life is obviously more important, and he can still carry this clearly.
"But one of them ran away, isn't there still another one? ”
Zhao Xi put his eyes on Cook's other seriously injured archer, Cook's physical condition must not be able to continue fighting for the time being, so this monster will do it for himself, anyway, he is the only player in this world, and he doesn't have to worry about others questioning his experience or something.
Zhao Xi, who had made up his mind, clenched the long sword in his hand and rushed towards the other skull-crushing orangutan archer who was struggling to get up on the other side of the forest.
The ordinary cranial orangutans around them heard their own extraordinary roar, and a look of struggle appeared in their scarlet eyes, but in the end, most of them chose to obey their own extraordinary orders.
Only a few of the skull-crushing apes who had already been killed and completely lost their minds did not even ignore their own extraordinary orders, but chose to continue the fight with the mercenaries.
However, with a large number of cranial orangutans already retreating, this enemy is not a problem for the mercenaries, and it only takes a while to deal with it.
The orangutan leader who had been fighting with Sid heard the cries of his companions and knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly exchanged injuries for injuries and forcibly fled the battle with Sid.
Instead, Sid let the orangutan leader go away and did not pursue him. His eyes flashed as he looked at the convoy with a thoughtful look.
Daisy is more unlucky, her opponent is one of the few cranial orangutans who will not retreat, and this orangutan is the stronger of the ordinary cranial orangutans, almost touching the edge of the extraordinary, and is only one chance away from breaking through.
Although there were some mercenaries to help Daisy, the increase in enemies made the orangutan even more violent, and even wanted to trade injuries for his life, thus killing several mercenaries.
Even a faint black mist had begun to appear on its body, as if it was on the verge of a breakthrough.
So the more it fights, the stronger it gets, and the other mercenaries are afraid that the other party will drag themselves to death regardless of their lives, so the more difficult it becomes, and some have even begun to contain each other.
After all, mercenaries in this world can be regarded as a high-risk profession, and if they die on a mission, there is no insurance or anything, so they can only rely on the pension given by the team.
But this pension can have a few dollars, if you meet a kind captain, you may give a little more, if you meet that kind of black-hearted, you don't even have a pension.
After all, the mercenaries don't jump out of the stones, they are all old and young, and most of the mercenaries are young adults in the family, and their death is definitely a huge blow to the family.
Therefore, unless there are enough interests for desperate things, mercenaries will still stay away from desperate things.
This also made this orangutan more and more courageous, and even vaguely escaped from the encirclement formed by this mercenary.
Daisy was also secretly anxious when she saw this scene, after all, the prey she had fought hard for half a day couldn't let him slip away so in vain.
The more anxious a person is, the more likely it is to make small mistakes that should not be made in normal times, especially in battle, and this small mistake will be gradually magnified and finally become fatal.
Daisy verified this sentence very well, and there was a mistake in the attack of the two knives that should not have happened, and the cranial orangutan caught a flaw.
With a single blow, he knocked the twin knives in her hand away, and took the opportunity to take out the female mercenary who was his biggest threat.
Although Daisy made mistakes, her years as a mercenary were not in vain, and now she leaned her body with all her might, trying to minimize the damage of this attack.
The mercenaries next to them also played a role at this time, although they tried their best, but they still did it just to stop the orangutan attack.
So with the help of her teammates, Daisy narrowly avoided the claw that grabbed her throat, but at the cost of a deep bone-visible wound in her arm.
There are still black marks on the wound, which is a cranioclusive orangutan that has accumulated rotten poison for many years, and if it is not treated in time, when the toxin spreads, this arm has only one option: amputation.
She didn't scream in pain, but quickly retreated without delaying the mercenaries around her to make up for the vacancy here, not wanting her direction to become the orangutan's breakthrough point.
Seeing that he had succeeded in his blow, this cranial orangutan directly wounded the enemy he felt the strongest against, and he didn't have the ability to continue to fight with him, so he couldn't help but roar, and the momentum on his body became more and more intense.
The surrounding mercenaries saw that all of their good skills Daisy was injured by a single blow, and they were even more afraid of the strength of this cranial orangutan, and even the connected battles were tied.
Four or five people are still at a disadvantage when they beat a cranial orangutan, and if a few mercenary captains see this situation, they are afraid that they will not be angry to death.
Just when the cranial orangutan was enjoying the battle, and even wanted to break through with the help of this momentum, the hairs on his back stood on end, as if there was some terrible monster coming from behind him.
"Are you okay?" Zhao Xi squatted down and looked at Daisy, who was sitting on the ground silently tending to her wounds.
"It's fine, a little injury, no bones. Daisy gritted her teeth and quickly cleaned some blackened minced flesh near the wound with the knife she carried with her to prevent secondary infection.
"Well, drinking this might make you feel better. ”
Zhao Xi directly took out a bottle of medicine to treat minor injuries from his waist and handed it to the red-haired mercenary in front of him who was treating the wound.
"It's... Is it an alchemical potion?"
Daisy stared blankly at the small green potion bottle on the palm of the young man's hand in front of her, as if she had seen something terrible.
"Ahh ”
Zhao Xi was obviously stunned, and he didn't know what the consumables he broke out belonged to in this world, so he could only follow the words.
"Is it really good for me to give me something so precious?"
Daisy looked at the potion bottle full of green potions in front of her, and couldn't help but swallow a big mouthful of saliva, looking at Zhao Xi opposite.
"It's nothing, it's just a bottle of healing. ”
Zhao Xi didn't expect Daisy's reaction to be so big, after all, after seeing the treatment of minor injuries, the efficacy of the treatment of minor injuries was no longer in his eyes, after all, Cornelia had five bottles of this medicine under a magic spell.
"The price of such a small bottle of alchemy potion in Shudria should be about a hardware coin, and it is often priceless. ”
Cook slowly walked out of the battlefield on the other side of the forest, explaining to Zhao Xi the preciousness of this alchemy potion.
"Well, then you can just take it. ”
Zhao Xi nodded, and directly put the potion on Daisy's lap, without giving the red-haired mercenary a chance to excuse herself.
For him, this kind of potion is just a trophy for killing two monsters by himself, and it is not of such a high value at all, even if there is, with Zhao Xi's worth, he can't look down on a small amount of money like hardware coins.
When he was in Dawning Town, Bishop Darren directly gave Zhao Xi one-third of the gold coins, because he knew that Zhao Xi had storage equipment, so he didn't worry about whether he could take it or not.
Therefore, the current Zhao Xi is also worth a little, and there are still deposits of several thousand gold coins, but the hardware coins can be wasted.
Daisy saw that Zhao Xi's attitude was so resolute, the more she didn't continue to shirk it, but put the potion in her pocket, and she was reluctant to use this precious potion.
Most of the mercenaries can't afford to buy such an alchemy potion at all, and even if they have money, they will choose to upgrade their weapons and equipment.
It's not that this potion is not easy to use, but this kind of thing is too expensive, and they simply can't afford to pay this price.
When a mission is good, you can only earn a few gold coins, and when it is bad, it is only a few silver coins, plus weapon maintenance and daily expenses, there is not much left in a one-time reward, and mercenaries can't afford this luxury.
Therefore, once they ruthlessly buy this medicine, they will not drink it if they are not at a critical moment, after all, it is all money in one sip.
There are also a few people like Zhao Xi who have a system and drink potions as water, for fear that the injury will not heal fast enough, and drink several bottles at a time, this behavior can make those mercenaries die of greed.
"It's..."
Zhao Xi didn't drink Daisy but chose to treasure it, but she didn't continue to insist, but looked at the huge wound and thought that it would be good for Cornelia to treat her for a while.
He didn't choose to give another bottle, after all, one bottle is friendship, and if you give more, it will be a big injustice.
