Chapter 158

The Famous Heroes who had climbed the trees did not dare to stay for even a second. The moment their Qinggong cooldown ended, they leaped straight from one tree to another, desperately flying toward the rear of their own main army. Amid the panic, some of them lost their footing and tumbled down, adding another glorious tally to the combat record of certain Zui Xiaoyao players. Out of the forty-seven Famous Heroes, only ten successfully escaped, while the remaining thirty-seven sacrificed their lives. Among those who died, only a small fraction were shot to death by the enemy Archer Cavalry; the rest all fell because their Qinggong skills fell short, causing them to plummet to the ground where they were swarmed and hacked to pieces. The result they bought with their lives was the instant elimination of thirty-eight Doctors from Zui Xiaoyao's thousand-man regiment—exactly half of the total number Feige had brought tonight. It was precisely because of the outstanding performance of these forty-seven Famous Heroes that Xiao Yu dared to face Zui Xiaoyao's frenzied advance with a heavily outnumbered force in the subsequent battle, completely deterring the Zui Xiaoyao legion through a bloody, head-on brawl.
