Chapter 662

Instead, he waited, waiting for those female soldiers to come closer, to enter the encirclement a bit more.

"Tang Ruan! How are you?"

"What happened to Tang Ruan?"

"No way? Even Tang Ruan has fallen?"

"Where's the enemy?"

The female soldiers immediately rushed over and saw Tang Ruan lying on the ground in a bizarrely twisted posture, several arrows stuck in her body, blood pooling beneath her.

Those female soldiers were very surprised.

Although they and Tang Ruan had a superior-subordinate relationship, this was only because of their different positions.

Normally, their private relationship was very good—after all, Tang Ruan came from the same background as them, so there was a natural sense of closeness.

But they knew how powerful Tang Ruan was; normally these female soldiers had "beat up" Tang Ruan plenty of times.

Of course it wasn't real beating—rather, Tang Ruan practiced one-versus-many combat to practice methods of responding when surrounded by multiple opponents.

So Tang Ruan shouldn't have been killed by just these few arrows?

Even if these arrows had the power equivalent to four ordinary arrows, it still shouldn't have been possible to shoot her dead like this.

Her joints twisted this way should be the result of being hit by "Stalling Arrows."

If Tang Ruan let herself go, she really could use her flexible-body genetic trait to pull off many extreme postures.

For example, folding her joints backward like this.

So...

Tang Ruan was playing dead!

In an instant, multiple female soldiers realized this point.

They immediately searched for the enemy, but found nothing.

Around them were only trees, one after another.

There was no trace of an enemy at all.

At this moment, a female voice suddenly rang out.

The voice was still Xia Zhi's.

Now the female soldiers were all beside Tang Ruan, already inside the encirclement—this was the perfect moment to attack.

"Now! Everyone, fire!"

The instant Xia Zhi made a sound, she nocked an arrow, drew her bow, and her figure immediately appeared.

In a flash, the figures of female elves appeared on more than ten surrounding trees.

They all drew their longbows.

All aimed at the female soldier nearest to each of them.

But at this moment, a burst of purple light erupted at high speed.

It burrowed into these elves' bodies.

The female elves' long ears instantly stood up, and an extremely heavy force of fury erupted.

"Shit!"

"Damn it, what's going on?"

"Who the hell is it?"

"It's that corpse!"

"Corpse? Bullshit!"

"Fuck your mother, who are you cursing? It's the corpse, can't you feel it? Trash!"

The delicately beautiful female elves were actually spouting crude curses one after another, completely mismatched with their appearance.

But under raging fury, even the gentlest and most humble woman would be like this.

Xia Zhi didn't curse.

She just felt it was unbelievable.

A corpse couldn't use a Taunt skill—the only possibility was that female hero wasn't dead.

But, how the hell was that possible?

Her heart had been shot through, blood flowing all over the ground—how could she not be dead?

What bullshit is that?

Although the Taunt skill could make people fly into a rage, it also had a brief buffer period.

Although Xia Zhi didn't understand, as a hero, she still had the ability to make split-second decisions on the spot.

She suppressed her anger and in an instant removed the Taunt from all the female elves.

The female elves' fury rapidly dissipated.

But that corpse seemed to have anticipated that Xia Zhi would remove the Taunt, and immediately another burst of purple light shone out.

Once again enveloping the female elves within it.

Their delicate faces, which had just calmed down, twisted into rage once more.

"Shit! What's going on? Giving face and not taking it?"

"Taunting us again and again?"

"I saw clearly—it's that corpse."

"Damn it, shoot that corpse to pieces!"

"Yeah, shoot her to pieces!"

The female elves furiously shifted their aim, targeting Tang Ruan's corpse.

Xia Zhi had likewise taken aim at Tang Ruan.

But it still felt unbelievable.

The next second, Tang Ruan's body moved.

Her grotesquely twisted limbs swiftly snapped back into place, and the body folded backward also returned to normal.

Tang Ruan opened her eyes.

"Hehe, that actually hurt."

As she spoke, she directly pulled out the arrow lodged in her chest; a bloody hole appeared on her chest, and blood spurted out.

At this moment, the female elves drew their longbows to the full and loosed in unison.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh!

Arrows whistled through the air, shooting toward Tang Ruan from every direction.

Although Tang Ruan's iron armor still had some fragments left, it had no durability remaining — it was no different from paper.

Fortunately, her helmet, leg armor, gauntlets, and boots still had some durability.

They could still block a bit more damage.

Bang bang bang!

Pshw pshw pshw pshw pshw pshw!

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

Arrows flew; Tang Ruan was hit by 9 arrows.

Of those, 3 arrows struck her armor.

Her helmet and leg armor had now also been blasted apart.

The power of these arrows was still extremely strong.

The remaining 6 arrows struck her body.

"Ugh—yaa!"

Tang Ruan screamed in pain, yet a strange sense of satisfaction seeped through her voice.

Very bizarre.

Her tiny little body kept spurting blood.

But the bloody hole on her chest had already grown much smaller; pink tender flesh was growing out from around the edges of the hole, and it would soon heal completely.

At the same time, those female soldiers were also moving.

The instant the elves appeared, they too had understood the situation.

While Tang Ruan drew the enemy's attention, these female soldiers immediately charged at the surrounding elves.

The 6 female archers hit 3 elves — they didn't kill them, but wounded them.
