Becoming a wet nurse is not the end of the story.

The Fire Phoenix Mercenary Group usually adopts a gentle approach to communication, but this is not without its temper. This blatant disregard for their warnings infuriated the warriors.

"Enemy attack..." A sharp alarm sounded, and the entire camp quickly switched to wartime status. Many mercenaries came to the outer perimeter of the camp, leaning against a low wall made by earth mages, watching the mercenaries with bloodshot eyes and menacing auras marching towards them.

"Those people?"

Lin Xueyin stared intently at the mercenaries, feeling as if she had encountered a similar situation before, but she couldn't quite recall it.

Yu Liuli watched the mercenaries slowly approaching, clenched her fists tightly, and finally had to exhale a long breath before raising her hand, "Mage, prepare to launch a magic attack first."

As soon as the words were spoken, various types of magic landed on the numerous mercenaries. However, the mercenaries did not stop at all. Those in front fell to the ground, while those behind continued to advance fearlessly.

"Damn it, mages keep attacking, archers launch projectiles to intercept enemy backline attacks, crossbowmen fire straight in and attack the frontline enemies with all their might."

As the orders were issued, the mercenaries quickly fell to the ground under the attack of the Fire Phoenix Mercenary Group. Yu Liuli was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and was about to tell everyone to go back and rest when she heard Xueyin exclaim in surprise.

"No, they haven't been killed yet, everyone be careful."

"Yukine, I know this is the first time you've encountered something like this, but all the enemies have been knocked down. Even if some are injured, they can't possibly still fight."

Seeing that Yu Liuli had no intention of listening to her ideas, Lin Xueyin stomped her foot in frustration, but still held her hand, not letting her leave.

"Sister Liuli, you must listen to me. I suspect these aren't human, but..."

"Alright, Yukine, listen to me. Everyone is tired today and needs to rest."

Orichils looked quietly at the girl in front of him. "I'm afraid the enemy won't appear until tomorrow. Tonight is just a piece of cake. Do you think they haven't achieved what they wanted, and that's why they want us to keep waiting here?"

"You..." Looking at Olihirs' cold eyes, Lin Xueyin couldn't help but speak out indignantly. At a time like this, how could she still say such a thing?

"Forget it, I don't care anymore, but I'll stay on duty with them tonight."

Frowning, Yu Liuli looked at Xueyin, who had an angry expression, and wanted to say something, but considering the bigger picture, she decided to let the mercenaries retreat and get some rest.

Just then, a crow that had just flown over the camp landed on a tree not far away, its eyes fixed on the camp that had returned to peace.

Volume 5: The Feathered Race and the Dwarves: Chapter 6: The Two-Tailed Giant Scorpion

She was annoyed, very annoyed, but she understood that since she had just arrived, these people didn't yet have complete trust in her. However, she had already experienced something similar before.

In Yorktown, when Lin Xueyin saw those zombie-like beings slowly and fearlessly walking forward, she recalled the pleasure she had once felt in controlling those undead.

Back then, although there were many undead, they weren't as cunning as they are today. This is clearly feigning death before launching a surprise attack. If something goes wrong, they might really be wiped out.

Sitting alone to one side, staring intently at the lifeless spirits lying on the ground, a deep unease still filled my heart.

"Xueyin, get some rest. I just sent someone out to check, and they're all dead. They're not breathing anymore."

Yu Liuli was a little annoyed to see Xueyin acting so childishly. Although she wasn't exactly dissatisfied, she was still a bit annoyed because of Xueyin's insistence. She had sent people out at great risk, but Xueyin was still worried. She wondered what kind of people were safe to send.

"Sister Liuli, those people are spirits, they have become spirits, you must not be careless."

Sensing that Yu Liuli was somewhat dissatisfied, Lin Xueyin still hoped to make it clear to her that once a rift appears in some things, it is really difficult to mend it.

"Yukine, don't worry, we can still recognize the undead. How could those undead creatures be like this? Go and get some rest, sweetie."

Knowing that Yu Liuli definitely wouldn't believe her, and considering that Yu Liuli had already sent someone to check, which was a way of giving her an out, Lin Xueyin didn't press the matter further. She simply said that she was worried and would observe the situation here a little longer before going to rest. After seeing Yu Liuli off, she sat alone on the low wall again.

"Miss Yukine, it's cold up here. Why don't you come down and rest for a bit?"

Several patrolling soldiers saw the girl sitting alone on the low wall, staring blankly outside. Knowing what was going on, they came up behind her and whispered something.

"Oh, it's you guys. I'm fine, I'm just observing a bit more. You all be careful too."

Her sweet smile made the soldiers momentarily dazed, then they shook their heads with wry smiles. Being cared for by such a lovely girl, no matter what she said, they naturally wouldn't have too many complaints in their hearts.

"With us here, there will definitely be no problem."

"Haha, that's right, our Hawke is getting ready to go home and get married."

Hearing this, Lin Xueyin's heart skipped a beat. With such an obvious warning, the danger tonight was not far away.

Suddenly standing up amidst the surprised gazes of these warriors, Lin Xueyin raised her hand and added several shields to them, also bestowing some blessings upon them.

Feeling the changes in their bodies, the warriors were once again deeply impressed by this priestess who had joined the group halfway through. A priestess who could bless so many people at the same time was definitely not an ordinary person.

Being able to enter such a powerful mercenary group, these people naturally have high standards and have already vaguely sensed Lin Xueyin's extraordinary abilities. So, for the sake of their own lives, they will naturally realize that suggestions that were previously ignored are now worth considering.

"We'll go right now..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Xueyin felt a violent tremor beneath her feet. Soon, in the center of the camp, a giant two-tailed demonic scorpion burst from the ground, overturning the entire central camp.

This sudden attack caught everyone off guard. Even though Lin Xueyin had mentioned it before, she was not prepared for this sneak attack at all.

Several crimson eyes were fixed on Yu Liuli and the others not far away. Even though they were dead, their instincts as wild beasts allowed them to find the one that posed the greatest threat to them.

"Damn it, there really was a sneak attack. Yukine was right."

Upon hearing Yu Liuli's words, Olihirs' face showed a hint of shyness. If he had listened to her, this situation probably wouldn't have happened.

"Yukine, you..."

Looking into the distance, Xueyin was already directing the guards to launch a full-scale attack on the outside of the wall. She knew that those dead people who had fallen to the ground probably really had stood up again and launched another attack, just as she had said before.

Beset by internal and external troubles, the enemy's attack has plunged the entire Fire Phoenix Mercenary Group into its greatest crisis. The Twin-Tailed Scorpion remained silent, yet the powerful members within felt a strong killing intent.

In an instant, the twin tails behind the scorpion attacked its greatest threats, Yu Liuli and Andrek, with the force of thunder. One emitted a dark, black light, while the other emitted a ghostly green light.

With a cold snort, Andrek raised his hand and unleashed a water dragon that blocked both menacing scorpion tails. Not only that, Yu Liuli raised her hand and drew her bow, the piercing cold light carrying the power of thunder as it stabbed straight at the giant scorpion's crimson eyes.

But it vanished without a trace amidst a shower of sparks. Having never held out hope for this attack, Yu Liuli, carrying a green bow on her back, dodged the sweeping blows of the two enormous pincers and landed directly on the giant scorpion.

Looking up, he discovered that many of his men had been injured in the attack by the giant claw. Although none of them had died yet, what difference was there between being injured and dying in this situation?

The scorpion raised its massive pincers high and slammed them down on the enemies it had swept to the ground.

In her rage, Yu Liuli fired arrows repeatedly, but to the scorpion that had been dead for some time and was surrounded by a hard shell, it was like scratching an itch through a boot, having no effect whatsoever.

Andrek pushed his hands out, and the water and fire dragons roared fiercely, pushing one of the giant claws back with a whoosh. When the first attack failed, he tried again, and the attack from the other giant claw followed immediately.

With his old strength exhausted and new strength yet to be generated, Andrek saw the approaching giant claw and took out a scroll. It was a level nine scroll that he had bought years ago, which was more than enough to deal with the attack of this level nine magical beast.

Although it had lost its intuition, the beast's senses were still there. It clearly felt the threat the mage posed to it. Ignoring the reptile on its body, the Twin Tail once again stabbed at the small insect on the ground that was both in its way and posed a danger to it.

Volume 5: The Winged Race and the Dwarves: Chapter 7: Break Out, Little Priest!

With giant pincers in front and scorpion tails behind, the Fire Phoenix mercenary group, caught off guard, is now surrounded by war. The corpses that had been lying on the ground have risen again, leaving some mercenaries unable to help themselves and forced to watch helplessly as their comrades are in danger.

He hadn't given up hope. Andrek was still making a final struggle. He still had many tricks up his sleeve, he still needed to see his sister, and he still had so much to do.

As the scroll was unfurled, a beam of light shot straight at the giant scorpion, forcing it to retract its massive pincers and hold them in front of it. The billowing dust completely obscured the scorpion's body.

At this moment, Yu Liuli seized the opportunity of the light impact to quickly break free from the giant scorpion's body. With a flip, she fired several more cold beams from her longbow, which pierced the giant scorpion's body, but still achieved no result.

Upon landing, Yu Liuli stared intently at the billowing smoke and dust. Her unease remained, and even intensified as the smoke and dust dissipated.

A figure quickly arrived beside her, her beautiful figure catching Yu Liuli's eye.

"Yukine, what's wrong with you...?"

Before he could finish speaking, two enormous claws came crashing down on him from the dust and smoke. He tried to push the girl away, but she calmly raised a huge protective shield with her hands, safely placing everyone inside.

The enormous claws, carrying intense killing intent, slammed into the shield with the force of thunder, and Xueyin's pretty face turned as pale as paper in an instant.

"Yukine, you..."

"Sister Liuli, I'm fine. Listen to me, these are all undead. I think there must be a necromancer around. Everyone should be careful."

After speaking, Lin Xueyin raised her hand and unleashed a group healing attack, restoring all the wounded and fallen warriors to full health, allowing them to return to the battlefield.

"Sister Liuli, you all go down first. I will fight this giant scorpion. As long as none of you die, I can save you."

Since the resurrection skill had become her signature move, if she were to resurrect someone directly, all her previous concealment would be in vain. Therefore, Lin Xueyin had no choice but to seal the resurrection skill away once again.

Holy Nova.

The explosion of immense divine energy sent the giant scorpion reeling backward. Its two tails, not to be outdone, lunged at Lin Xueyin, but a fiery shield rendered their attacks ineffective.

Andrek nodded to the girl who turned to look at him, and waved his staff again, creating a powerful wave that surged up from the ground and overturned the giant scorpion.

The giant claws opened and closed repeatedly, making a chilling crunching sound. Inside its enormous mouth, two fangs swayed incessantly. The warriors cautiously tried to get close enough to deliver a fatal blow to the giant scorpion.

However, the giant claws continued to attack, and with each extension and contraction, the shields on several warriors were broken. Seeing that they still did not intend to stop, Lin Xueyin quickly shouted for them to stop.

The giant claw swept across again, and Lin Xueyin, as if she had foreseen it, raised her hand and cried out for divine protection. At the same time, she struck the spot where the giant claw was going. The violent impact made the girl's pretty face turn pale, without any color in it.

Divine protection, simply put, means that after reducing the damage to others by 90%, it is returned to the user. It is actually the same principle as the Buddhist practice of cutting flesh to feed an eagle.

The more people a person seeks refuge in, the greater the harm they will suffer.

"Come back quickly."

Seeing Lin Xueyin suffer another severe injury, and realizing that all the blocking attacks had been redirected back at her, Andrek unleashed several fireballs from his hands, continuously striking the two giant claws protecting his body.

Many warriors also sensed something was wrong and quickly returned. At this moment, Lin Xueyin took a breath, her face regained some color, and she raised her staff high, wielding the Holy Nova.

Instantly, another powerful holy explosion erupted on the giant scorpion's body, delivering another fatal blow to the fallen scorpion. Holy energy is the nemesis of necromancy, and after two consecutive major blows, the giant scorpion gradually calmed down.

Calmness does not mean that the other party has completely lost the ability to move. Once again blocking Andrek and the others who wanted to go forward to investigate, Lin Xueyin pointed her staff and said, "Holy Purification".

A purifying wave of light struck the giant scorpion directly, and an even stronger necromantic energy appeared on its massive body.

"Hmph, this is it," Lin Xueyin snorted coldly, and her Mind Blast struck again with great force, enveloping the two-tailed giant crab that was binding the dead.

At this moment, a shrill scream came from the depths of the dense forest, "Who is it that destroyed my Twin-Tailed Giant Scorpion? It was one of my best creations. No matter who you are, I will tear you to pieces."

Unaware that she had provoked something unknown, the girl, who had been casting spells continuously and taking damage from multiple people, had exhausted her stamina.

Stumbling and falling to the ground, panting heavily, she watched as the giant scorpion, stripped of its undead power, gradually dissipated into a wisp of smoke, vanishing completely from the world. In her mind's eye, Lin Xueyin seemed to hear a thank you.

Meanwhile, the undead warriors outside suddenly lost their fighting ability for some unknown reason and all fell to the ground again. However, this time Yu Liuli had learned from her previous experience.

He immediately ordered his men to collect the corpses and throw them all into the fire, turning them completely into ashes before he could finally relax.

After a night of fighting, it finally came to an end. Yu Liuli looked at her teammates who had begun cleaning up the battlefield, and a relieved smile finally appeared on her stern face.

Fortunately, Yukine was there; otherwise, I really don't know how many casualties I would have faced this time, and the Fire Phoenix Mercenary Group might have been wiped out from the mercenary world.

Thinking of Xueyin, Yu Liuli remembered that Xueyin's expression was obviously off when she saved her.

"Yukine, Yukine... Andrek, have you seen Yukine?"

Finally, she found the vice-captain who would fight alongside her. He looked solemn, as if something had happened, which made Yu Liuli's already anxious heart even more uneasy.

"Yukine? No, it can't be."
