Luo Xinglan slowly opened the brocade pouch, which was covered with several lines of writing:
"Illusions can be activated in two ways: through sound and through sight. So, the best way to avoid being bewitched by illusions is to neither listen nor look. Usually, these two forms will appear in turn. Another very important point is that if an illusion activated through sound fails, it cannot be activated through sight. Similarly, if an illusion activated through sight fails, it cannot be activated through sound."
The contents of this brocade pouch were so vast that Luo Xinglan had to read it twice to fully understand it.
It must be said that this piece of advice came at just the right time.
After reading it, she returned the brocade pouch to Jiang Ruobai: "Just now I confronted the weasel head-on. It used sound to cast an illusion. So what happens next..."
Jiang Ruobai smiled and said, "As long as you don't make eye contact with it, you won't be affected by the illusion."
Luo Xinglan nodded: "That's right! This is very important for our next move."
Sun Zexia couldn't help but ask, "Uh, what if we accidentally make eye contact with a weasel?"
Huang Feilin looked at him expressionlessly and said, "Then gouge out your eyeballs."
Sun Zexia chuckled twice and then fell silent.
Luo Xinglan was also taken aback by Huang Feilin's serious-sounding joke. After a moment of silence, she said, "Let's hurry up and leave. The weasel is at the prayer platform right now. If we go too late, it might leave."
Jiang Ruobai nodded, and the three of them followed Luo Xinglan to the prayer platform.
Upon arrival, I saw a chimpanzee bound hand and foot and two hyenas.
The weasel was ordering the other guards to kill them.
The chimpanzee was the first to see Luo Xinglan and excitedly shouted, "Did you come back to save us?"
The long-haired hyena and the lame hunting dog also looked at Luo Xinglan with anticipation.
Luo Xinglan didn't speak, but exchanged a glance with Jiang Ruobai, and the four of them drew their weapons and rushed towards the weasel.
Luo Xinglan took out an epic-level meteor hammer, while Jiang Ruobai took out an epic-level red-tasseled spear.
Huang Feilin carried a heavy sword, while Sun Zexia held a bow and arrow.
Sensing the chilling killing intent, the weasel turned around and saw Luo Xinglan and her three companions. It hurriedly ordered its guards to come and protect it.
The guards immediately gathered around the weasel, forming a protective circle around it, with the weasel standing in the very center.
Sun Zexia was about to shoot an arrow when he saw the weasel being protected. He curled his lip and said with a hint of disdain, "Heh, this weasel hasn't improved at all, using someone else as a shield?"
Jiang Ruobai calmly commanded: "Afei, you come with me and charge up to draw away those guards. Xia, you stay here and be ready to shoot the weasels at any time!"
Sun Zexia nodded, a slight smile playing on his lips: "Alright, today I'll let this little beauty witness my perfect archery skills."
Luo Xinglan asked, "What about me?"
Sun Zexia: "Little beauty, step back a little. Knives and guns have no eyes, so don't get hurt. Leave the work involving knives and guns to us."
Luo Xinglan said with some dissatisfaction, "I am not the kind of weak woman. If you think I am a woman who can't do anything, then I'm sorry, I think our cooperation can end now."
This is a survival game. If she had hidden behind someone else when she was in danger, she would have died countless times by now.
She doesn't need to constantly think about protecting her teammates; for her, that's not "being protected," but "being discriminated against."
After thinking it over, Luo Xinglan decided to go up and kill the weasel herself.
Jiang Ruobai pointed towards the chimpanzees: "Don't get excited, you seem to know them, right?"
Luo Xinglan understood instantly.
She was not treated as someone who needed protection, but rather as a comrade-in-arms who could fight alongside her.
Luo Xinglan nodded: "I understand. I'll go save them first, and then I'll help you kill the weasels after I've saved them."
Jiang Ruobai's tone held a hint of a smile: "Okay."
Sun Zexia realized he had misspoke and said apologetically, "Luo Xinglan, that's not what I meant."
He's just used to protecting girls.
Luo Xinglan nodded, clearly not taking his words to heart, and the group split up to carry out their tasks.
Looking at Luo Xinglan's back, Sun Zexia suddenly felt a strange sensation.
He had been used to protecting girls since he was a child, and never thought that one day there would be a girl who didn't need to be protected.
Such a thought only lasted a moment, and soon he focused intently on the weasel in the middle of the protective circle.
Luo Xinglan rushed over to the chimpanzees in a few steps and, together with the white raccoon and black crow, helped them untie their ropes.
Jiang Ruobai and Huang Feilin rushed towards the weasel and quickly engaged the guards in a fierce battle.
In an instant, chaos erupted here.
After rescuing the chimpanzee, Luo Xinglan joined Jiang Ruobai's battle and quickly broke the guards' formation.
Sun Zexia, who was standing not far away, seized the opportunity and shot an arrow at the weasel!
The arrow was incredibly fast, heading straight for the weasel's heart. Naturally, the weasel wouldn't just sit there and wait to die; it quickly hid behind a guard, crying out in a somewhat terrified voice, "Protect me first!"
The guard beside it hesitated for a moment upon hearing this.
The outsider not far away is aiming to shoot the wolf king. Protecting it now would be like letting them use their own bodies as shields, wouldn't it?
While the guards hesitated, Sun Zexia's arrow struck again!
Seeing this, the weasel grabbed a guard and used him as a shield. The arrow struck the guard squarely in the heart, and the guard died instantly.
The weasel shouted angrily, "Help! Protect me! If you protect me, I will inform the gods and they will grant you even greater power!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several guards who were still hesitating rushed over, and even the scattered and fleeing villagers surrounded him, forming a thick "human wall" once again to protect the weasel!
Luo Xinglan thought to herself that this was a bit troublesome.
She never imagined that these guards and people were so obsessed with the blessings of the gods that they would risk their lives to protect the weasel!
Now, Sun Zexia, who is furthest away, has lost his usefulness.
No matter how good his archery skills were, he couldn't possibly shoot the weasel through the "human wall" with a single arrow.
We can only rely on the three of them.
But these animals were innocent, and she didn't want to harm them. Her movements were hesitant, and she couldn't break their formation again.
Jiang Ruobai had obviously also noticed this problem.
He raised his voice to Luo Xinglan and said, "Don't hesitate any longer, or we'll be the ones who die!"
As he spoke, the red-tasseled spear swiftly and decisively pierced through one of the guards who was trying to attack him, without the slightest hesitation.
Huang Feilin, carrying a heavy sword, gradually gathered killing intent in his eyes.
Luo Xinglan was shocked.
These people... actually killed without batting an eye; such courage is something that ordinary people cannot possess.
What were they doing before they entered this game?
In the brief moment that Luo Xinglan was distracted, a guard wielding a large sword swung at her!
