Chapter 318: Chapter 271: Village Defense Battle (7)
She wasn’t offended, but she did find it strange.
Logically, Gu Qing should have understood these things.
Her lack of etiquette would reflect poorly on Zhao Chi; others would just think he was incapable of managing his own subordinates.
But it didn’t feel like she was doing it on purpose.
’Could it be that Zhao Chi never told her about these rules?’
’Why does it feel like Gu Qing is completely unaware of all this?’
’Besides, there’s a strange aura coming from Gu Qing. Does it somehow even surpass Zhao Chi’s?’
Gu Qing’s hand was still outstretched.
Su Qin shook her head. "Thank you, but I don’t need it. My medicinal Resistance has already stacked to its limit. There’s nothing I can do now but command from here..."
Gu Qing nodded and popped the Pill into Zhao Chi’s mouth.
Zhao Chi naturally opened his mouth and accepted it.
Seeing this, Su Qin understood.
’So that’s how it is.’
’No wonder. This woman is too perfect.’
’But even so, he shouldn’t spoil her this much...’
Su Qin shook her head, casting aside these unimportant thoughts and refocusing her attention on the battlefield.
Just then, she noticed the wind was picking up.
A strong gust blew from behind them.
It kicked up sand and gravel from the ground, scattering the stench of blood.
Gu Qing looked at Zhao Chi. "My Lord?"
Zhao Chi nodded. "Go ahead. Do as you see fit."
Gu Qing smiled. "Alright."
Instantly, a large amount of light red Silk Paste sprayed from her hands.
The Silk Paste was like a red drizzle, splitting into two distinct parts.
The first part was clearly fine silk, which indiscriminately covered the heads of the enemies.
The second part was a viscous red rain that fell entirely upon the Elves.
Previously, Zhao Chi had some reservations and hadn’t let Gu Qing use her Spraying Silk Ability in front of others.
But thinking about it now, there wasn’t much need to hide it.
After all, it was one of her most important Skills—a crucial Treatment and control-type Skill.
Not letting Gu Qing use it would be too great a restriction on her.
Besides, when he had deployed Gu Qing before, this Skill had never been displayed.
It didn’t matter if she revealed it now.
Plus, they were destined to fight more people in the future, so it would have to be revealed eventually anyway.
After confirming with Zhao Chi one more time, Gu Qing began to use her Ability without hesitation.
Su Qin didn’t know what this Ability was, but she saw the injured Elves recover and rejoin the battle.
Meanwhile, the enemies were entangled by the fine red silk, which constantly tugged at their arms and legs, causing their Movement Speed and Attack Speed to slow down slightly.
It seemed this Female Hero named Gu Qing possessed very Rare Skills.
On the battlefield, a purple light flared.
One after another.
Among the 500 Beastmen, the 120 Beastman Soldiers with the highest Combat Power were all engulfed in a purple glow.
Their expressions immediately twisted in fury.
It was Taunt!
Su Qin whipped her head around to look at the source of the purple light.
The one casting the Taunt Skill was a petite woman?
Su Qin said anxiously, "Zhao Chi, what’s going on with that subordinate of yours? Is she too nervous? Why did she Taunt all the Beastman Soldiers? Get her back here quickly, or she’ll be instantly killed!"
’Make Tang Ruan come back?’
’How could she possibly agree to that?’
Zhao Chi said, "It’s fine. Have all your Elves attack the Beastman Warriors. Let’s take care of the enemies with the highest damage potential first."
Su Qin pointed at Tang Ruan. "How can that be fine? Don’t you care if she lives or dies?"
Gu Qing said gently, "Little sister, don’t mind our combat style. Just do as the Lord says."
Though her tone was gentle, her words left no room for doubt.
Su Qin said no more. "Fine, alright. Then make sure you heal her... All units, attention! Switch firing targets to the Beastman Warriors on the right! Concentrate fire and take them down!"
"Understood!"
"Roger!"
"Yes!"
"Yes, my lady!"
All the Female Elves on the defense towers switched their targets.
Tang Ruan’s body became incredibly slick as the Jade Skin Armor covered her completely.
She didn’t take the Shield from her back. Instead, she held her spear with both hands and, as if she couldn’t wait, charged into the Beastman horde.
Su Qin was dumbfounded.
’She’s not holding her ground? Why is she charging in?’
"Zhao Chi, why did she charge into the enemy ranks? It’ll be impossible to rescue her! Quickly, have your spearmen charge in a triangular formation! You might still be able to save her!"
Gu Qing laughed. "Little sister, could you please be a little quieter? You’re very pretty, but our Lord doesn’t like women screaming during the day."
Su Qin was stunned. "You... how old are you?"
Gu Qing chuckled. "Although it’s a secret, I can tell you. I’m 26. Can you keep it a secret for me?"
’Twenty-six...’
’She really is older than me.’
Su Qin nodded. "I... I understand. I’ll keep it a secret."
"Hee hee, thank you."
"You’re welcome..."
Su Qin’s voice trailed off.
She watched Tang Ruan nervously. ’Maybe she has some kind of escape Skill?’
But Tang Ruan had no intention of escaping.
"Yes, yes, yes! Hack at me just like that! Now *that’s* more like it."
She looked excitedly at the frenzied Beastmen swarming around her.
"You’re pathetic! You can die first!"
Tang Ruan executed a Thrust, piercing straight through the Beastman’s Leather Armor and into its heart.
Blood spurted, and the Beastman collapsed.
Three Goblins squeezed through the crowd. When they saw Tang Ruan, their eyes widened in disbelief.
Their expressions turned to excitement.
But Tang Ruan looked at them with utter disgust.
"What are Goblins doing here? I didn’t Taunt you! Get lost, don’t get in the way! Let the Beastmen hit me!"
After all, the Goblins were ugly and small; they couldn’t possibly do any Damage to Tang Ruan.
Tang Ruan frowned and thrust her spear three times, not even bothering to use a Combat Skill.
The three Goblins’ skulls shattered, and they all died.
More Beastmen closed in.
Their Attacks were ferocious and dealt considerable Damage.
Tang Ruan’s Iron Armor shattered. Her Skin Armor cracked as well, and blood began to spray.
