━━━━━━━━━━

After seeing the status information of the Corruption-Detoxifying Poison-Blade Rat King, Jiang Ran was quite "happy".

The arrow he shot just now hit the Rat King's forehead and then bounced off. Unexpectedly, it could cause a "huge" damage of 3 points... You know, the last time he faced the level 59 "Shadow Devouring Rock Demon Svalerok", Jiang Ran could only cause 1 point of damage with one arrow.

Based on the current damage calculation, Jiang Ran only needs to shoot 2520 more arrows at the Rat King to defeat it!

(At a time like this, I really want a Gatling gun...)

The unrealistic thoughts in his mind indirectly reflected how difficult Jiang Ran’s current situation was.

The usually talkative silly loli was silent at this time.

Jiang Ran looked into the distance where the sky was illuminated by fire. There were the giant red-scaled snake and branch chief Oleg.

Bringing this Rat King over to muddy the waters of the battle would be a good option - Jiang Ran believed that the enemy didn't have the ability to control the Corruption-Detoxifying Blade Rat King, they could only lure it over.

"Go, little motorcycle!"

Jiang Ran pulled the reins to change direction and rushed towards the location of the red-scaled giant snake!

He had already made plans to release the little motorcycle after luring the rats far enough away. This brave warhorse deserved to continue living.

However, as the little motorcycle was running, it suddenly turned its head, snatched the glowing magic stone from Jiang Ran's hand, and bit it tightly between its teeth!

Immediately afterwards, before Jiang Ran could react, the motorcycle turned sharply, throwing Jiang Ran off the horse's back, and then ran away without looking back!

The rats that were chasing after him only saw the glowing magic stone and didn't notice Jiang Ran falling to the ground at all. They continued to chase the small motorcycle.

All this happened so suddenly that Jiang Ran didn't figure out what was going on until he stood up from the ground.

(Small motorcycle...!)

Jiang Ran didn't even dare to make a sound. If he attracted the attention of the rats at this time, all the efforts of Xiao Moto would be in vain.

At this point, Jiang Ran could only silently remember Xiao Moto's kindness, and then quickly ran towards the reward hunters.

·

When Jiang Ran arrived at the team, the reward hunters had just worked together to eliminate the few rat monsters that remained to fight.

Jiang Ran took a look and saw a level 41 scavenging, violent black rat among the monster's corpse! These reward hunters truly lived up to their reputation as elites.

Taking advantage of the fact that there are no enemies now, Jiang Ran asked everyone to evacuate as soon as possible.

Then, Jiang Ran found Emilia in the team.

He originally wanted to borrow a horse from Emilia to support Branch Chief Oleg, but after seeing Emilia, Jiang Ran discovered something abnormal about her.

(What's going on? Why is Emilia's vitality constantly decreasing?)

━━━━━━━━━━

Emilia

Vitality 77↓ / 158

Stamina 32 / 96

Magic 16 / 561

━━━━━━━━━━

In Emilia's status information, her vitality was decreasing at a rate of about 1 point per second.

Jiang Ran immediately asked Emilia where she was injured. Emilia replied that she was hit a few times by a carrion rat, but she was fine now.

(Is everything alright? If it’s alright, why is my vitality still decreasing?)

Looking at Emilia's blue lips, Jiang Ran guessed that Emilia might have been poisoned.

So, Jiang Ran immediately activated his "Trickster" skill. After repeated questioning, Emilia confessed that she was accidentally bitten by a snake during the "snake rain" just now.

"You really are...! Why didn't you say so earlier?!"

Jiang Ran was rarely angry. He immediately found the wound Emilia mentioned. Fortunately, it was on the calf, some distance away from the artery.

"Quick! Drink this!"

Jiang Ran took out the homemade antidote and stuffed it into Emilia's pocket, then tore his clothes into strips and tied them up the upper and lower blood vessels of Emilia's calves.

Afterwards, Jiang Ran squatted down and began to suck out the venom from Emilia's wound, sweat breaking out on his head in a hurry.

·

When Emilia saw that Banning was so worried about her, a long-lost warmth appeared in her cold heart.

This evening, she saw Banning take over the responsibility of branch chief and shoulder the burden of commanding the team;

Tonight, she saw Banning single-handedly lead away the rat group led by the Rat King in order to save the team;

This young man, who had only disgusted Emilia when they first met, had unknowingly become the most reliable person in her mind.

"How are you? Feeling better?"

After a while, Banning asked Emilia with sweat on his forehead how she felt. Emilia then remembered that she was poisoned, but at some point, the dizziness she felt after the poisoning had disappeared.

"Much better, thank you, Mr. Banning."

·

Jiang Ran's questioning of Emilia was just an auxiliary verification. Through his identification ability, he had actually seen that Emilia's vitality was no longer decreasing.

Now, Jiang Ran and Emilia had fallen a little far behind the team, so he decided to ride on horseback with Emilia to catch up with the team first, and then go alone to support Branch Chief Oleg.

However, Jiang Ran still underestimated the enemy's strength.

Just as the two of them began to catch up with the group, a streak of fire streaked across the night sky.

It was Branch Chief Oleg who was on fire. He was blown into the sky and then fell into the group of reward hunters without any buffer.

4.45 - Losing ground

“Hiss—hahahaha!”

"Oleg! You deserve this day!!"

Following closely behind Oleg who was knocked flying, the giant red-scaled snake rushed into the group of reward hunters. Its huge body immediately crushed to death two magicians who had no time to dodge.

"Now! 'Flame Horse' is mine!!"

The giant red-scaled snake coiled its huge body into a circle, trapping Oleg inside, and its hard scales became a solid wall, preventing the bounty hunters on the outside from rushing in to rescue him.

"First-level water magic: Ice Thorns!"

"First-level lightning magic: Forked lightning!"

The magicians tried their best to force the giant snake back, but their magic had no effect on it.

The warriors swung their weapons and smashed them against the giant snake's red scales, but the result was also minimal.

At this moment, the giant red-scaled snake suddenly twisted its body in the opposite direction, swung its tail violently, and swept away a large group of people in one go!

"Hiss—hahahaha! It doesn't hurt, you rubbish!"

The giant red-scaled snake Spland looked arrogantly at the reward hunters around it. Even the level 50 professional mercenary Oleg couldn't do anything to it, let alone these rookies who were only in their 20s?

Now Oleg was being devoured by the flames of the magic sword and was unable to move. Spland was no longer worried that he would pose a threat.

The only thing Spland had to consider at this moment was when he should transform back into human form to seize the magic sword.

Although Spland himself is a level 63 "Spirit Walker", as a summoning profession, his humanoid form is relatively fragile.

If he restored his human form too hastily, he would be easily attacked by the reward hunters using human wave tactics, and then he would be in trouble.

——(Kill them all, killing them all is the safest way!)

Spland quickly made up his mind. Facing these newbies of the second-level profession, his red-scaled giant snake body was invincible!

When Jiang Ran and Emilia arrived on horseback, the scene was already a scene of hell on earth.

"How...how could..."

Emilia dropped her shoulders helplessly, and Jiang Ran was so surprised that he was speechless.

In front of the two of them, a giant red-scaled snake that was twenty or thirty meters long easily bit a heavily armored warrior, threw him into the air with ease, and then watched him fall heavily to his death.

And around this giant snake, there were a large number of reward hunters' corpses lying in a mess.

crushed to death;

killed by poisonous fangs;

hanged;

……

Even the only hope of the group, branch chief Oleg, could only roll on the ground, trying to put out the flames on his body.

A brave magician used water magic to help him put out the fire, but the flames were so strange that even water was ineffective, and instead they burned even more fiercely!

The branch chief has been defeated, his companions are being killed one by one by the giant snake, and the atmosphere of fear has permeated every corner.

"Hard-armored warriors, charge forward!!"

"Sniper archers, aim at its eyes!!!" But even so, the bounty hunters did not give up. They still cooperated with each other to defeat this monster!

Their shouts also ignited the courage in Jiang Ran's heart.

"Emilia! Cheer up! It's not time to give up yet!"

Jiang Ran woke Emilia with a shout, then dismounted and rushed to Oleg.

Jiang Ran first looked at Oleg's vitality, which was still about two-tenths and not particularly dangerous. Then he looked at the "Magic Secret Sword: Flame Horse" held in Oleg's hand, and immediately understood why the flames on his body were difficult to extinguish.

"Branch Chief, I'm Banning!"

"Please allow me to take over the magic sword in your hand temporarily!"

After saying that, Jiang Ran leaned down, ignoring the danger of being burned himself, and with a little force, he pried open Oleg's tightly clenched fingers and forcibly took the "Magic Secret Sword: Flame Horse" into his hand.

(If you want magic power, take it from me! Magic Sword!)

Jiang Ran had just obtained the magic sword when he clearly felt that a large amount of magic power had been absorbed. However, after the magic power was absorbed, the backlash fire that had been continuously overflowing from the sword immediately stopped!

"Emilia! I'll leave the branch chief to you!"

Jiang Ran patted Emilia who had caught up with him and told her that she could now use water magic to extinguish the flames on the branch chief's body.

Immediately afterwards, without any further explanation, Jiang Ran remounted his horse and rushed out with the "Magic Secret Sword: Flame Horse"!

"Hey! Basilisk! Don't you want this sword?! Come and grab it if you can!"

Jiang Ran's provocation immediately attracted the attention of the red-scaled giant snake. It was about to clear the venue, but suddenly saw the magic sword being taken away by another person, and it immediately became furious!

"You little bastard! Don't even think about running away!!"

The giant red-scaled snake chased out like crazy, which allowed the bounty hunters who were originally being hunted by it to temporarily save their lives.

Taking advantage of this brief peace, Emilia and other magicians cooperated with each other to use magic and finally extinguished the flames on the body of branch chief Oleg.

But at this time, the branch chief had suffered severe burns all over his body and was so weak that he couldn't even speak.

Looking at the pitiful Oleg, and then looking at Banning who led the red-scaled giant snake away, Emilia felt her heart aching.

The bounty hunters around them had turned into corpses. They had been laughing and cursing in the quest guild during the day, but now...

With so many people dead, Emilia was so sad that she almost suffocated.
