Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

”They don’t have many arrows left; hold on, hold until close combat!”

Xiahou Qin slashed dozens of fire arrows, tightened his skin membrane, and used his body to block the remaining iron arrows. While the hundred people fired arrows, he and the remaining four hundred were not idle; they were continually blocking the iron arrows on the west side of the wooden house for the Earth-digging Realm soldiers inside as best they could.

Of course, the priority was to deflect the flaming arrows.

Bam......

”Ah!”

But how many arrows could over four hundred people actually block?

The thing Xiahou Qin worried about most finally happened; the fire completely spread from a wooden house north of the main building, and with a sudden cold wind, a burning wall on the second floor was blown off, allowing the icy air to surge in with the cold light from above. The people inside let out cries of agony.

”If the fire can’t be controlled, get into the main building, quickly!”

Xiahou Qin made a hasty decision; within Jinbi Village, the building with the most iron was the main building, and compared to other wooden houses, its fire spread much less easily.

As soon as they couldn’t control the fire, masses of people rushed out of the wooden houses, frantically heading into the main building. Luckily, Xiahou Qin didn’t let everyone rush out at once; otherwise, not to mention getting into the main building smoothly, many would have died just from trampling.

But what good would that do?

”Sir, it’s useless; hiding in the main building just delays the inevitable. Earth-digging Realm has almost no combat power during the day. We’ve lost; Jinbi Village can’t be defended!”

Zhou Yunkai, disregarding the impact on morale, turned and shouted to Xiahou Qin in front.

Xiahou Qin’s face turned crimson as he looked at the Earth-digging Realm soldiers in disarray, his eyes full of reluctance.

”Cease fire!”

Just as Xiahou Qin was about to shout for retreat, the chief Bhikkhu Yan Xin, who had been standing at the front, unexpectedly commanded the army to cease fire.
