After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply Chapter 366

Chapter 366: 302, Doomsday Sect, Lia's Decision_2

Hulus brought a total of twelve people with him, among whom five were Blue Horn Ghost Faces, at the Star Rank, while the other seven were Green Horns, with an average level aura of around 27.

Lin Da's mood grew increasingly heavy.

On his side, there were only two Star Rank individuals – even though Lia was a talented Swordsman and Lulu had her Witch State – but the numbers were far too unequal.

Not to mention that the opposition had Hulus, the experienced adventurer.

Hulus's strength was even greater than that of Tiger Man Xi Ou, whom they had defeated the day before!

Using a Town Portal Scroll to escape was also out of the question.

There was a magic restriction within Dragon Forest; unless they walked out, they couldn't use the Town Portal Scroll or the Teleportation Stone.

Their only hope rested on the Signal Flare Scroll.

If there was any Iron Level adventure team nearby that saw the signal, regardless of which city they were from, they would unite against the Magical Creatures and the Doomsday Sect.

Lin Da discreetly reached for a pocket behind his waist.

Hulus, as if he hadn't seen the subtle movement, crossed his arms and spoke with composure:

“Iron Cages? The Empire? What are those, in the face of His Majesty the Demon King, all rules can be broken. Lady Bai Mian has bestowed upon me new power, at this moment, Dragon Forest has become our Doomsday Sect's hunting ground, adventurers who enter with hearts filled with greed, we shall bestow upon thee the 'justice' of judgment!”

The abnormal behavior of the Magical Creatures was indeed related to the Doomsday Sect.

A flicker of doubt arose in Lin Da's mind; this region's Doomsday Sect should be under the control of the Demon General, his sister, who called herself Lin Xi. Could it be that his sister was nearby?

Although he didn't want to shamelessly rely on his sister, their current situation was extremely dire – naturally, Lin Da was unaware that Lin Xi had gone to Cyan City and even met with Taige, the leader of the Dark Flame Adventure Group.

Regardless, Lin Da activated the Signal Flare Scroll; with his right hand raised high, like shooting off fireworks, the signal flare shot up into the night sky, bursting into a pattern of a blue Slime crying.

This was the continent's universally recognized adventurer distress signal.

“Forget it, not one of you will escape today! Nacho, attack!” Hulus sneered coldly, ordering the sect member to launch an attack.

“Concentrate – break out!”

Lin Da gave a signal to Lulu and the others with his eyes and rushed toward the east.

“Where do you think you're going! Stinking Werewolf, I haven't settled the score with you from the arena!” A burly man in a black robe roared as he swung his axe, aiming a vertical chop at Lulu's back.

From the voice, it was clearly the 33-level Berserker Nacho.

Nacho, who should have been injured, bedridden and immobile, had miraculously been healed after joining the Doomsday Sect.

“Awooo!”

Lulu caught the sharp edge barehanded; her beast claws accurately trapped the axe as she countered with a stylish spin kick.

Grunting, Nacho staggered several steps backward.

Surprised behind his mask, Nacho felt the shock in his hands – the last time he had fought this Werewolf, their strength was more or less equal, or perhaps his was slightly lower, so why was she now even stronger?

“Frost Wolf's Edge!”

Lulu's beast claws shone with a silvery light; she swung left and right, sending out crescent-shaped Battle Qi bolts flying.

One was neutralized by Nacho, while the other left a bloody wound on Nacho's shoulder.

“Argh! You scoundrel, scoundrel Werewolf, I'll flay your hide to carpet my floors!” Nacho roared into the sky, activating the Berserker's Ultimate Skill “Complete Madness”!

His head swayed wildly, as if he had lost all reason.

In this state, his attack and defense increased, his agility decreased, and he became impervious to pain.

Nacho charged again, his axe aimed at Lulu!

“Frost Wolf's Bite!”

Lulu delivered a simple, brutal knee to Nacho's face, smashing his mask and sending him rolling away.

“Lulu is so powerful?” Lia, who was struggling with a Star Rank level 33 opponent, found each clash between her Great Sword and the opponent's long blade exhausting a great deal of Battle Qi. In contrast, Lulu seemed to have an easier time?

“Frost Wolf Warriors excel in strength and agility, perfect for dealing with those big, dumb Berserkers.”

Lin Da threw a Venom Eruption as a distraction, deliberately saying, “It seems the Doomsday Sect is just so-so after all!”

“Ah! Ah! Ah!” Nacho, consumed by rage, glowered fiercely, completely losing his bearings.

He couldn't understand why the Werewolf had improved so much in just a few days; last time at the arena, he was confident he could take her on, so why now could he not land a single blow?

Lulu kicked Nacho away once more and, looking at his confused, crumbling expression, said coldly, “Let me tell you, last time we fought, I didn't have a single piece of Magical Equipment of level 30.”

Just last night, Lin Da had spent a whole million Gold Coins to equip Lulu.

Right now, Lulu had one piece of level 28 Epic Equipment, a level 30 orange beast claw weapon, and four pieces of level 30 Purple Equipment.

Combat strength increased by over thirty percent.

Moreover, Lulu's profession greatly restrained Berserkers, resulting in Nacho having no chance to fight back.

The three focused on an assault and finally opened a route for escape.

“I'll carry Monica.”

Lulu, being the most agile, quickly grasped Monica, tucking her under her arm.

“Grab my hand!”

Lia's expression was anxious as she firmly grasped Lin Da's wrist, nearly yanking him to the ground.

“We can't let them get away! Let one go, and I kill one of you!”

Hulus and Nacho each led a group of men and pursued them.

Lin Da and the others fled in different directions; those not being chased by Hulus had a high chance of escaping.

As they ran for their lives, Lin Da looked back to see Nacho, his face covered in blood, in hot pursuit.

That meant… Hulus was on Lulu's side.

“Lulu can activate her Witch State; she can't beat Hulus but escaping won't be a problem.”

“Now I just need to focus on my own situation–can Lia and I take down these three Star Rank together?”

Lin Da thought quickly and concluded with a negative answer.

At level 20, he was quite an anomaly, but compared to Star Rank, the gap in basic abilities was too large.

Lin Da had never felt such an intense desire for an increase in strength.

In cities, the imperial laws protected adventurers, allowing them to live in peace. But out in the wilderness, especially in dangerous areas like Dragon Forest, all pretenses were stripped away; the only thing worshipped here was strength!

With strength, Giant Dragons would bow their heads in submission and yield their treasures.

The Goblin King would cower in fear, leaving his fate in your hands!

All sorts of thoughts flashed chaotically through Lin Da's mind. The Sword of Royalty pointing backwards, the Dark Whip flew out, hindering Nacho and his men.

“Don't use your magic power anymore, save it.”

Lia suddenly said something.

Lin Da looked at Lia's face, filled with determination, and felt a buzz in his head.

What was she planning?

“Wait…”

Lin Da's words came to a sudden halt, cut off by Lia.

As expected, Lia did just that.

With a swift exertion of force from her wrist, she threw him dozens of meters away.

“If we keep running, the Battle Qi consumption will only increase and, Miss, will have a harder time dealing with them.”

Lia, with her back to him, held the Phoenix Feather Sword tightly in her hands.

The girl was petite, but at that moment, her silhouette resembled a towering mountain as she hastily said, “I have a way to get out, just go!”

Agility was a notably strong attribute of Star Rank.

Lin Da, although highly armored, seemed sluggish compared to the high Agility of the Star Rank.

If he stayed, he would likely just slow Lia down.

With a myriad of thoughts whirling in his head, Lin Da ultimately gritted his teeth fiercely and handed over his Double Shields;

First, the Verdant Shield landed on Lia, followed by its unfolding golden wings, and a massive sword light slashed towards Nacho.

The Ultimate Skill of the Recovery Series [Guardian Sword]!

Both shields were raised, their thickness exceeding 10,000 points.

The two layers of shields brought a warm sensation. Lia's expression softened a bit, her lips curling into a slight smile as she thought: Now it's Miss's turn to protect you.

Although she couldn't repay Lin Da for the three years of kindness he'd shown Snow Goose, she hoped to repay Lin Da in her own way.

And it was at that very moment that Lia's left eye burnt fiercely, as the seed of flames residing within it blazed vigorously.

The Fire Fighting Qi turned a faint orange-red, and a trace of starlight passed by casually.
