Chapter 2236

"Damn..."

"Fortunately Captain Li gave out such great stockings and high heels, my movement speed has increased several times over, I can definitely escape."

"Shit, then what do we do? You female lords ran off, leaving only us male lords behind?"

"You can't put it that way. Then I could also say those with high agility ran off, leaving us with low agility—what do we do? This is a life-or-death escape now, of course everyone relies on their own ability."

"No, I can't run, and none of you are going to run either. Earlier we said we'd share blessings and troubles together. The blessings were shared, now the trouble's here, and you'll share it with me too."

"Hey, what are you doing!"

The entire crowd broke into an uproar.

Everyone was about to evacuate.

And about to face the werewolves blocking them outside.

Before, they could stay calm, but now that this moment had truly arrived, some lords really couldn't keep their composure.

Several vice-captains also noticed this.

Gu Zhan immediately sent a forced voice message:

【Everyone, don't panic!】

【Our retreat route is unified, and we're evacuating together as a whole. There's no intention of deliberately leaving anyone behind】

【The territory connection point is on your own person, so that you can be responsible for yourself. After all, some of us will definitely encounter misfortune soon. If there are too many connection points, it will drag others down】

【There's only 1 minute left before the spatial rift opens. Everyone, finish your setup immediately. If you don't finish setting up, no one will wait for you—that's your own choice. Don't blame Binghe's main force for abandoning you anymore】

Gu Zhan was clearly a bit angry.

His tone was very hard.

This didn't quite match his usual style.

But at a time like this, being forceful was exactly what was needed—to forcibly suppress the unease in everyone's hearts.

Guan Zhiyong also roared:

【There's only half a goddamn minute left!】

【Stop dawdling. Anyone who hasn't finished setting up, click agree immediately. Once time's up, energy distribution will stop】

【Click agree right now. There are only two options, what are you hesitating for!?】

The crowd fell silent.

It seemed they were temporarily cowed.

Li Yanhui also sent a message at this moment:

【The formation energy distributed to everyone is limited】

【Everyone, don't waste it recklessly】

【There will definitely be fighting afterward. Everyone must fight quickly and decisively, giving everything to fight at full speed, ending it before the surrounding werewolves can come support】

The message was sent by the system.

But the scene was very quiet.

Li Yanhui's voice could also be heard from afar.

Su Qin asked softly: "Zhao Chi, are you done on your end?"

Zhao Chi nodded: "Mm, done. What about you?"

"I'm done too. Tell me, the connection point is now on our own bodies now. If we encounter combat, do we have to return to the territory to fight? Will we still be able to come back?"

Zhao Chi explained: "Yes. Once the territory connection point is on you, returning to your territory will consume a bit of formation energy, temporarily fixing the connection point in place. When you come back out, you'll still appear at your previous position."

"Oh... got it."

"Our two territories are now connected. You can go back now, I'll just take you with me."

Su Qin shook her head: "I still want to stay with you. My stats are so strong now, and I have a full set of fashion items. I definitely won't drag you down."

Zhao Chi smiled: "Of course that's not what I meant... It's fine if you want to stay outside."

Su Qin looked around.

Everyone nearby was staring at Guan Zhiyong ahead, no one was paying attention to her.

So she leaned close to Zhao Chi's ear: "I'm staying outside so you can come inside me later. Just control my body. My body has the fashion item bonuses, so I'll definitely run faster than you. And didn't you say it's very comfortable inside?"

Good idea.

Zhao Chi smiled and nodded at her, as if in affirmation.

Suddenly, Zhao Chi felt his body become very light.

His breathing was also very smooth.

His five senses also became transparent and clear.

This meant the formation energy had stopped being distributed.

At this moment, Jiang Chen, Lu Yibing, and Li Ruanyu appeared ahead.

Jiang Chen nodded to Guan Zhiyong: "Ready."

Guan Zhiyong once again sent a forced message through the system.

【Everyone pay attention!】

【We're starting evacuation immediately. Main Captain Lu Yibing will temporarily make everyone invisible】

【During invisibility, don't talk or act freely. Follow the main force in everything, don't leave the team on your own】

【Once we reach the spatial rift, keep up with the team. No one has the energy to look after you. Don't cause trouble for the main force. If anyone gets lost, there will absolutely be no search party】

【There are very likely werewolf spies in the team, so we won't tell you the detailed route. You just need to follow your respective captains. Don't fall behind!】

【If you encounter werewolves, don't panic. Quickly dodge and go around them】

【Absolutely do not attack proactively, or the invisibility will fail】

【Communicate by typing in the group, use text to communicate】

【No nonsense in the group, no discussions, no idle chatter】

【Everyone, activate your skills!】

Once the words were spoken, the mid- and high-level squad leaders, including Guan Zhiyong, all lit up with intense light from their bodies.

The radiance soared into the sky.

Clouds of light in every color interwove.

One second later, they all descended.

Like a colorful storm had struck.

The over a thousand lords on site all received massive buffs.

Zhao Chi felt as light as a swallow right now, his whole body brimming with strength, and he had gained many wondrous sensations besides.

Everyone around him had turned semi-transparent.

Like white silhouettes drifting about.

The scene was somewhat eerie.

This situation was actually a bit like what folk tales call ghosts.

But it certainly wasn't that.

Zhao Chi's gaze could pass straight through dozens of silhouettes and see the Mist Wall behind the crowd.

He looked down at his hands.

He could see the faint lines of his palms, and the white outline along the edges of his hands, but his gaze passed easily through his palms to the grass below.

Su Qin's semi-transparent eyes were still bright; she was staring at Zhao Chi.

He opened the system:

He saw that his current state was simply invincible.

Strong beyond measure:

【Status】 Temporary Invisibility, Movement Speed Increase, Terrain Adaptability Increase, Life Steal Increase, Immunity to Movement Speed Reduction, Immunity to Stun, Immunity to Root, Weight Reduction, Equipment Weight Reduction, Defense Increase, Movement Speed Increase on Health Loss, Cannot Be Targeted by Single-Target Skills, Life Recovery on Taking Damage, Morale Increase on Stamina Loss, Higher Movement Speed at Lower Morale, Will Not Rout, Perception Increase, Sound Reduction, Jump Increase, Stamina Cost of Movement Reduced, Body Odor Eliminated, Temporary Shield, Temporary Health, Increase Maximum Equipment Durability…

Each one had a specific value, and none of the values were low.

Each one had a time limit.

Most lasted 10 to over 20 minutes, though some lasted longer.

All of these came from those squad leaders' skills.

Among them, the movement speed increase and terrain adaptability increase were probably Gale Step, which Zhao Chi also knew.

If Zhao Chi cast it, the buff to the female lords might be even greater.

But there was no need right now.
