Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

225: Chapter 144 Self-serving at the expense of others, He Meng’s Rage [Sorry for being late] 225: Chapter 144 Self-serving at the expense of others, He Meng’s Rage [Sorry for being late] “Don’t worry about Teng Jiao, shoot those two fools first, don’t let them lure the Cold Beasts over!”

Whoosh…

An Iron Arrow suddenly shot forth, Xia Chuan dodged swiftly.

The Iron Arrow nearly grazed his scalp as it flew past.

He glanced back, seeing a large tree behind pierced by the Iron Arrow.

Sweat trickled down Xia Chuan’s forehead, a wave of lingering fear in his heart.

Thankfully, after throwing the torch, he immediately turned eastward, heading towards Xia Hong’s position.

If not, it wouldn’t be the tree that was pierced, but his body.

This He Meng actually intended to kill!

Not just He Meng, those archers who had just encircled Teng Jiao, upon hearing the order, really ignored Teng Jiao and all turned their focus.

Their target shifted to Luo Yuan and Xia Chuan on the north and south.

Whoosh…

whoosh…

whoosh…

In an instant, Iron Arrows rained down like shooting stars at the two.

These were arrows launched by over twenty Earth-digging Realm archers.

And the distance between both sides was barely over a hundred meters.

Just as the Great Xia Camp valued archery, the archers at the Mirror Immortal Camp were extremely skilled as well.

Xia Chuan and Luo Yuan instantly became cornered and flustered.

The two of them weaved left and right between the trees, dodging Iron Arrows flying at them from behind, but with Cold Beasts chasing them, they couldn’t hide behind a tree nor retreat, the only option was fleeing east.

This severely restricted their escape route.

The people of the Mirror Immortal Camp obviously realized this too.

Their aim became increasingly precise, and their hit rate astonishingly high.

“Don’t kill them, drive them east, let them lure the Cold Beasts away…”

Xia Chuan, who was expertly dodging, originally wore an extremely grim expression, but after hearing He Meng’s order to his men, he was filled with immense joy.

“This fool, hahaha!”

In this short moment, he had already suffered several grazes from arrows.

If they kept shooting, both he and Luo Yuan wouldn’t just suffer more injuries; they could even lose their lives.

Never did he expect that at this moment, He Meng would make such an unwise decision.

“Not to kill, wanting to force us east to lure away the Cold Beasts.

He thinks it’s me and Xia Chuan attracting them…”

Luo Yuan, on the south side, felt the arrows from behind cease aiming at his vitals, merely restricting his escape route.

His expression relaxed.

But upon looking down at his leg, his expression turned somber.

An Iron Arrow had already pierced the surface flesh, embedded there, with blood trickling from the wound.

He had thrown the torch with Xia Chuan simultaneously, and there were fewer arrows shot at him than at Xia Chuan.

He shouldn’t have been hit.

The problem was, behind him was an Intermediate Frost Wolf!

Low-level Frost Wolves were more agile and faster than other Cold Beasts.

And he had attracted an Intermediate Frost Wolf with his torch.

With the Frost Wolf chasing him, he was already extremely flustered, unable to pay much attention to the Iron Arrows from He Meng’s group.

This arrow in his leg, although only piercing flesh, was still bearable for now; but as time passed, the tear widened, starting to affect his speed.

“Awooo…”

Knowing that He Meng’s group was no longer focused on shooting him, Luo Yuan dashed forward with his head down.

The howling of the Frost Wolf behind grew closer, he could even smell the wolf’s breath.

Whoosh…

A sound echoed beside his ear, and a sudden sense of danger arose at his back.

Luo Yuan’s pupils constricted, realizing an arrow was about to hit him, he instinctively tried dodging left.

Unfortunately, the Iron Arrow was astonishingly fast.

Before he could fully move left, the sharp tip was already pressing against his right waist.

A hint of desolation flashed in his eyes, considering the earlier Iron Arrows piercing trees, He Meng’s group likely had superior Basic Strength, making the power of their Iron Arrows extremely terrifying.

The arrow that penetrated his leg was just flesh-deep, not a big issue;

But this arrow aimed at his waist.

Pierced by such terrifying force, it wouldn’t merely leave a gaping hole, his internal organs might be damaged, risking his life…

Clang…

clang…

clang…

In a split second, the sound of metal clashing resounded in his ears, followed by Xia Hong’s reassuring voice.

“Hide behind me, stop running, apply the Golden Healing Powder!”

Xia Hong drew the Yi Blade, swiftly creating a blade screen behind Luo Yuan.

The Yi Blade’s length allowed a wide defensive screen, and arrows shot by He Meng’s group fell to the ground, blocked by the screen.

Luo Yuan quickly extracted the arrow from his leg and applied the Golden Healing Powder, noticing the Frost Wolf that had chased him was now running towards the torch, where He Meng’s group was, a joyful expression appeared on his face.

Not just the Frost Wolf, the Snow Mane behind Xia Chuan was also charging towards the Mirror Immortal Camp’s group.

With two Intermediate Cold Beasts charging simultaneously, He Meng’s group no longer had time to shoot arrows this way.

With his injuries calmed, Luo Yuan laughed triumphantly:

“Hahaha, they’re gone, those people probably don’t even know who did it.”

“They’ve figured it out, He Meng has seen me, and my blade!”

Xia Hong sheathed the Yi Blade, his gaze cutting through to meet He Meng’s across the Frost Wolf, over a distance of one to two hundred meters.
