Arak, as Carlos's most loyal orc, always fought on the front lines. He was a wolf-beast and held Carlos in awe and respect.
He would carry out any order given by Carlos and even exceed expectations, feeling quite pleased with himself.
"I already brought it out, how could I possibly give it back to you? I'm taking it with me, you can't catch me."
Andrei has extraordinary confidence in his speed; it's his talent. Just a few years ago, when he was still struggling to make ends meet, he even beat the 4-star ringed orc chieftain in a race.
He might not be able to win a fight, but when it comes to escaping, he's second to none.
“You're alone, so we definitely can't catch you, but you're with a female. If you try to escape with all your might, the female won't be able to catch you.”
Andrei's expression changed slightly. What Accra said was true; Guo Xiaoxiao was too weak. If he ran at all his speed, he would definitely knock her off.
Guo Xiaoxiao believes that hiding is the best option if you are not discovered, but if you are discovered, where can you run to?
It's better to stay with Arthur than to run away from this desert with Andre.
Guo Xiaoxiao lowered her head and said
"Forget it, let's not run."
He slid off Andrei's back. Guo Xiaoxiao definitely wouldn't go with them; using her skill would cause her to faint again immediately, and getting caught would be a greater loss.
Andrei didn't say anything. If they wouldn't run, he'd give it his all. He wasn't confident against several wolves and Alark, but he would protect Guo Xiaoxiao and make sure she didn't get hurt.
The idea of learning by analogy and exploiting bugs came back to Guo Xiaoxiao. She thought that since healing spells could be used on others, could spells like "no cost," "ability enhancement," and "Lion King's Heart" also be used on others?
“Come back with us, female. Carlos likes you very much. As long as you're willing to go back, he won't hold it against you for running away.”
Araksh made a final attempt to persuade them, fearing that a fight would break out and the females would be injured, which would be difficult to explain.
The wolves following Arak growled menacingly, waiting only for a command to pounce on them.
Andrei adopted a defensive posture, determined to compete with them, even if it was a one-sided victory where he had no chance of winning.
"Why should I go back with you? I was kidnapped by Carlos in the first place. If you know what's good for you, go back and tell Carlos that I don't like him, I won't marry him, and he should stop trying to take advantage of me."
Akla: "The reason you're willing to stay in the Gray Rock Desert, is it because you like Arthur? You smell like Arthur, are you two together?"
Guo Xiaoxiao didn't shower after mating with Arthur; there wasn't enough water for her, and she didn't ask Arthur for any, or rather, she hadn't had a chance to shower yet, when Carlos's large force arrived.
"Is your nose that sensitive? You can even smell whether someone is married or not?" Guo Xiaoxiao couldn't help but raise her hand and smell it. "What does it smell like?"
"I smelled it for a long time but there was no smell. How did he smell it?" Guo Xiaoxiao said.
"Who I partner with is none of your business. I'm not going back, so give up on that idea."
Arak's mission was to take her away, and since she refused to cooperate, they had no choice but to use force: "Then we'll just have to kidnap you from the Gray Rock Desert."
Guo Xiaoxiao acted swiftly, placing her hand on Andrei's back and silently chanting "Ability Enhancement, Lionheart" in her mind.
When the skill was applied to Guo Xiaoxiao, there were no messy magic circles or lights.
When used on others, colored array patterns will appear on their bodies, flashing and gradually increasing in size.
The yellow light of the Lion King's Heart and the red light of enhanced abilities appeared in layers, overlapping and intertwining.
Two strange magic circles, flashing with unusual colors, were attached directly to Andre's body, just centimeters away from his skin.
They had never seen anything like it before, and found it hard to believe that a female could possess the power of witchcraft.
Andrei received Guo Xiaoxiao's skill, and a powerful force surged within him. He felt a huge, warm current of energy flowing through his meridians.
Andrei roared excitedly to the sky; he would become a mighty warrior! He had only one thought: fight, fight! Anyone who dared to come near him would be killed!
The orcs present were stunned by the pressure emanating from Andrei, which was two to three times stronger than before.
Seeing his excited expression, Guo Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief. She had finally been able to help. She had come up with this idea in a moment of inspiration, and although it was effective, it easily exposed her.
We can't worry about that now, let's get rid of them first.
Akra gritted his teeth and led several wolves to pounce on Andrei. Andrei remained calm and met the attack head-on, his claws slamming hard into the wolves' chests.
The wolf was forced back several steps by his attack, and Andrei seized the opportunity to pounce on another wolf, tearing off pieces of its flesh with his mouth.
Seeing his fierce appearance, Guo Xiaoxiao thought, "He's really something." She had misunderstood before; that's how skills are used. They wouldn't be decisive against her, but they're very effective against orcs. Her only worry was Andrei—would he faint after using his skill like him?
Arak hadn't expected his opponent to be so much stronger than them; his companions were easily knocked away, and even the combined strength of the wolf pack was no match for him.
Seeing the horrific sight of his kin being torn apart, Arak gritted his teeth and lunged forward, but to no avail; he couldn't even touch their bodies.
Andrei paused for a moment, then charged forward instead of retreating, ramming into him. The two collided heavily, and Guo Xiaoxiao clearly heard the sound of bones breaking. Arak was thrown a long way, lying on the ground spitting out blood. Andrei did not stop his attack; he kicked Arak away and continued attacking the remaining orcs.
Andrei's frenzied attack caused Arak to stagger and struggle to his feet, shouting...
"withdraw"
His companions, knowing there was no turning back, all followed Arak and ran outside.
"Don't leave!"
Andrei caught up with the fleeing wolves, experiencing firsthand what it meant to feel a surge of adrenaline, an unstoppable force, and an overwhelming desire to conquer them—he was completely swept away.
With lightning speed, he pinned them all down and smashed the head of a wolf beast with a melon, causing blood to spray out.
Seeing this, the other wolves quickened their pace and fled.
The war ended
…
Arthur and Carlos were locked in a fierce battle, not just a fight between the two of them, but a chaotic melee between their tribes.
As the war reached its climax, Carlos could no longer wait. He knew that in a protracted war, he would certainly be no match for Arthur.
Not having a numerical advantage would be very disadvantageous for him, and Arthur felt somewhat worried. He had to consider Guo Xiaoxiao; his tribe was currently too small in number and was being completely overwhelmed.
Usually, if they can't win, they can run away with the orcs, but if they can't win now, Guo Xiaoxiao is doomed.
The serpent beast's covetousness towards Guo Xiaoxiao was unbearable to him. How dare such a disgusting creature spy on his females? It was courting death!
