Little White's face was stained with blood, and her smile in the glow of the setting sun looked so radiant.
Er Dan and Ear immediately ran out to support the swaying Little White, helping her to the supply storage area and feeding her some healing medicine.
Although the potency of the demonic clan's healing medicine couldn't compare to that of the Exchange Stone Pillar's products, it was still effective. Within a few minutes, all of Little White's wounds healed completely.
However, the many bone demons present knew that the threat Little White had just dealt with was only a part of the entire raid.
Danger was far from over.
Healed, Little White stood up and looked at her trembling teammates around her. She tightened her grip on her war blade and said loudly, "Brothers, life or death, fortune or misfortune, all comes down to this fight! As long as we can hold the supply reserve, not only will we have done no wrong, but we'll even have merit, so let's give it our all!"
The team members exchanged glances.
The reality was, if they didn't give their all, it seemed like they had no other choice...
The supply storage warehouse that Little White was guarding was just a corner of the demonic clan's camp. With Little White as an internal supporter, what happened to Little White's team was far from the reflection of the entire battlefield.
In other places, it was a real fight with real weapons!
A large number of blood slaves rampaged through the camp, while endless Cloud Puppets and Mountain Puppets acted like hunters without a trace, lurking in the shadows and reaching for the demonic creatures with their blades. Even Wen Yu himself undertook the most "difficult" task—a few high-ranking combatants in this camp were relatively strong. To avoid any accidents, Wen Yu needed to quietly assassinate them without anyone knowing.
This wasn’t too difficult; it was merely a matter of activating the Heaven-Covering Robe's concealment effect, then approaching them and delivering a punch…
Surging soul energy flew in from all directions, which Wen Yu collected into his right hand. In isolated areas, he even used the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine to absorb some flesh and soul essence from the demonic creatures to enhance his physical strength and soul intensity.
It wasn’t until Arcade swaggered from the east of the city to the west and passed through from the south to the north, strolling back and forth in the camp several times, that Wen Yu finally sent a mental wave to Arcade.
"Retreat."
The demonic creatures throughout the city had already been slaughtered by Wen Yu and Arcade working together. Under the premise that Wen Yu didn't want to act openly, this process took a considerable amount of time, and during this time, the demonic clan had already reacted.
Looking far away, a rolling dust cloud had already risen—reinforcements from the demonic clan were arriving.
Wen Yu took one last look at the center of the city, where Little White was "battling fiercely" with the remaining five bone demons. Seeing this, Wen Yu smiled knowingly, then erased some traces that could easily expose his location, and with the blessing of the Heaven-Covering Robe, he quietly left.
The battle was over.
...
"Huff... huff..."
Panting heavily like a bellows, blood flowed from Little White's forehead into her eyes as she wielded her war blade and fiercely stabbed at an attacking blood slave.
Even if it was acting, in such an environment, it had to look real!
Since Little White "dealt with" the Cloud Puppet, the battle had not paused. A massive number of blood slaves roared as they charged toward the supply storage warehouse, with Little White leading a patrol team fighting valiantly, forgetting life and death...
Forgetting life, or rather dying, was for the other demonic creatures.
Forgetting death, or rather getting into character, was for Little White...
In the intense battle, no one noticed that Little White's situation was somewhat special—under Arcade's precise control, the blood slaves attacking Little White occasionally made deadly mistakes, which Little White seized as opportunities to behead them.
