Chen Jiaxu swallowed hard, then quickly took out a bottle of recovery potion. With trembling hands, he bit open the stopper and carefully poured the entire bottle of recovery potion into the spot Wen Zuo indicated. Although it couldn't completely heal the wound, it still had some effect.
"Hah..." Wen Zuo, his forehead covered in fine sweat, let out a long breath.
While Zou Zhiqing and the others were checking their teammates' injuries to see if they had worsened, Wen Zuo checked the bead in Mo Shuwan's mouth. The bead had become dull and lifeless. He asked Zheng Shanhe, who said that the bead had lost its effectiveness. However, all of their beads were taken out at the same time, but only the bead in Mo Shuwan's mouth had this problem.
"Ugh... what bad luck..."
It took Wen Zuo several minutes to completely unbutton Mo Shuwan's down jacket. The wounds had spread to both arms and collarbone, a truly shocking sight. He hesitated to reach out and lift the T-shirt that was the same style he was wearing.
Chen Jiaxu said in a low voice, "How about I do it? You...you don't look yet, I'll look and tell you."
Just then, a scream came from not far away. Luo Baokun's teammate, who was lying next to him, cursed under his breath, "I have to go save the captain! You're in the same boat as us now, you have to help me!"
To be honest, Wen Zuo's side has the most complete fighting force right now, but now that Mo Shuwan has health problems, they simply don't have the extra energy to deal with Luo Baokun.
Zou Zhi frowned and said, "Wait a minute."
"If we wait any longer, the captain and Qu Dan will be in danger!"
Wen Zuo and Chen Jiaxu ignored the conversation around them and continued to stare silently at Mo Shuwan. Liu Dongcheng frowned and said, "Take the bead out of my mouth."
"Don't you want to live anymore?"
Liu Dongcheng was taken aback, then looked at Wen Zuo seriously and said, "Right now, it seems the captain's situation is more dangerous than mine."
"Don't tell me you don't know where you're injured." Wen Zuo ignored Liu Dongcheng, took two deep breaths, and finally made up his mind to reach out and lift the T-shirt off Mo Shuwan's stomach.
Unable to easily lift it with his hand, Wen Zuo's heart sank. He said, word by word, "Recovery potion!"
Chen Jiaxu, who had prepared the recovery potion in his hand, suddenly trembled and stared at Wen Zuo in disbelief, "It's already gotten worse in the stomach?!"
Wen Zuo couldn't wait any longer and snatched the recovery potion from Chen Jiaxu's hand. His hand was shaking so badly that a small portion of the potion couldn't be poured where it was needed. When he finally lifted the T-shirt stuck to his stomach, his eyes instantly turned red.
The wound has worsened significantly! If we don't find a solution soon, Mo Shuwan's body probably won't be able to hold on much longer.
"Depend on!"
"We must find Shuwan immediately!"
"Save my captain first!"
Because the wound had worsened to his abdomen, Wen Zuo dared not carry Mo Shuwan on his back anymore and could only carry her horizontally. However, considering Chen Jiaxu's strength and Liu Dongcheng's current condition where he absolutely could not be injured, he was caught in a struggle again.
Yun Chen's mind was sometimes clear and sometimes unclear, and he dared not entrust his life to him. If he himself was also indirectly unable to fight, how could this team continue safely?
Just as Wen Zuo was caught in a dilemma, Liu Dongcheng whispered, "Give it to me, and I can hug the captain."
Wen Zuo was stunned for a moment, "You..." He had just started to speak when he remembered that Liu Dongcheng just couldn't touch him, and he was immediately dumbfounded. He had actually forgotten such an important thing. "You all need to be careful."
As Liu Dongcheng took Mo Shuwan from Wen Zuo's arms, his body tensed instantly, and he was in an extremely tense state. Mo Shuwan's injuries had deteriorated too much, and the slightest mistake could cost her her life.
“Although he is very strong, he cannot accurately sense our location. We are only about 500 meters away from him now, and he has not noticed us for so long. We can start from this aspect.”
Seeing Wen Zuo instantly get into the zone, Chen Jiaxu breathed a sigh of relief and patted Hope and Stratosphere on the head, "Be good, don't make a sound."
Zou Zhiqing pondered for a moment and nodded. "Let's think of a way to lure him out first, and the others can take the opportunity to rescue Luo Baokun and Qu Dan."
Who will go?
"I'll go."
Employer Zheng Shanhe rubbed his temples, regretting for the nth time that he hadn't hired two more teams. The three teams were indeed loyal and devoted to their teammates, but... while things went smoothly on his side, problems kept popping up on theirs.
Even now, before I've received any protection, they've already taken out quite a few valuable items. Did I hire them, or did they hire me?
Zheng Shanhe sighed silently, having given up hope of finding the medicinal herbs to heal the wounds of darkness in the dark world.
“I’ll go alone. You all stay here to protect Shuwan—and the employer.” Wen Zuo looked at Yun Chenjing, who was getting dressed, and whispered, “No matter what happens later, your most important task is to protect your mother, your second father, Chen Jiaxu, and the employer. Do you know who the employer is?”
Yun Chen looked at Zheng Shanhe and nodded.
"Yes, whether your mother and the others are safe or not depends on you this time."
Seeing the serious expression on Yun Chen's face, everyone else looked at Wen Zuo with admiration. So far, only Wen Zuo could say things that made the big boss listen without changing his expression.
To attract the attention of the distant indigenous people, Wen Zuo couldn't just walk out of their hiding place. He quietly moved several dozen meters to the side before heading towards where Luo Baokun and the others were. Of course, he couldn't just walk straight there like that.
The boy standing guard beside Luo Baokun suddenly swerved to the side, dodging a force that made his heart pound. He then stood up, tossed an arrow into the air, and said to Luo Baokun, "Look, they've come back to save you."
Luo Baokun had mixed feelings.
"You've wasted so much of my time." The boy sighed, nocking an arrow onto the bowstring. The surrounding dark elements visibly gathered around the arrow. "I just wanted to talk to you, but you wouldn't believe me."
Overwhelmed by the surging darkness, Luo Baokun clenched his fists and roared, "Don't come any closer!"
The moment his voice faded, the arrow, imbued with terrifying dark elements, flew toward Wen Zuo at a speed too fast for the naked eye to catch.
The group of people who had quietly stood up, ready to rescue Luo Baokun and Qu Dan at any moment, subconsciously held their breath. Only Yun Chen seemed unaware of the crisis Wen Zuo was facing, without even frowning.
