Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1499 - 471: Frostfire Scorches the Land—Success and Revenge, River Mouth Carnage, and Another Expert?

The hundred or so people standing outside the Rice Field were all Cold Resistance Level slaves from Qingwu Village. With such a big commotion, they had long rushed out from the field and stood there unmoving, clearly still contemplating.

Upon hearing Hong Xicheng’s loud call, some of them immediately reacted. Seeing that there were only two or three hundred Cold Resistance Level Subordinate Bureau members left fighting, a glimmer of hatred rose in their eyes. They raised their Iron Scythes and charged towards this side.

Once someone moved, even those reluctant to act were quickly swept up in the emotion and rushed over together.

”Run quickly!”

Seeing over a hundred Cold Resistance Level slaves charging over, Zhang Long and a group of Vice Managers were instantly scared out of their wits. They totaled almost three hundred people, and though there were still just over two hundred left, they were no match for the over ten thousand people surrounding them.

They couldn’t withstand over ten thousand Earth-digging Realm people, especially with the addition of over a hundred Cold Resistance Level slaves at this moment.

Zhang Long’s call to run marked the complete success of the uprising.

After the more than two hundred Cold Resistance Level individuals failed to break through to the east side, they swiftly turned towards the southeast. Their quick redirection took the two protectors and Hong Xicheng’s group by surprise, and they actually broke through an opening.

Zhang Long and three Vice Managers, along with over thirty County Guard Army soldiers, indeed rushed out from this gap.

”Liu Zhang, come with us to chase them. Leader Hong, continue enclosing and killing.”

”Yes, sir!”

After Guardian Liu sternly ordered, he and another protector directly chased after Zhang Long and the others.

”Run, run, as long as we reach Lu River Camp, we’ll be safe!”

Zhang Long’s chest wound was pulled again, and realizing the effects of the Blood Frenzy Powder were fading, he turned pale. Looking back at the relentless pursuit by the two protectors and Liu Zhang, who had already killed over ten County Guard Army soldiers, he became even more terrified, wishing his legs could sprout wings as he fled desperately.

He had the strength of 35 Zong. With a singular focus on escaping, his speed was indeed fast. In just over ten breaths, he pulled away from the crowd behind him by over ten meters. Seeing the two protectors and Liu Zhang getting farther, even slowing down due to chasing those behind, he was overjoyed and sped up his escape.

Huff...

However, just as he passed by a big tree, a sudden fierce wind sound came from overhead.

It was a saber!

Zhang Long sensed someone attacking sneakily, his previously calmed heart suddenly rose to his throat. With terrified pupils, he hastily raised his saber overhead to block in panic.

”You dog of an official, where do you think you’re escaping to?”

Already like a startled bird, upon hearing the young voice above angrily shouting, he instinctively looked up while defending, seeing the assailant wearing the same grotesque, sharp-fanged demon mask as the two protectors behind, he panicked immensely. In a crucial moment, rather than holding his ground, he chose to recline and lie on the ground to evade.

He was already severely injured, with only sixty to seventy percent of his strength remaining. The Frost Ash Association’s protector’s strength was nearly 40 Zong. This sudden blow, if he chose to resist, would be certain death.

Thud...

And thus, the cleverness backfired. Zhang Long saw the sharp-fanged demon mask, not even bothering to carefully sense the opponent’s Qi Muscle, assuming the opponent was strong, hence reclining to relieve force and engaging further.

But the attacker, Zhang Yuchuan, had clearly anticipated this. Seeing Zhang Long choose to recline and relieve force, his eyes behind the mask gleamed with joy. In mid-air, he quickly switched from a double-handed saber grip to wielding the short sword concealed in his sleeve with his right hand.

Clank... Thud...

”Ah, 16 Zong...... You brat, you deceived me!”

Zhang Long chose to recline to relieve force, not to give up resisting. As the opponent’s saber was about a meter from him, he swung his blade to defend.

As soon as he blocked, he realized this masked young person was not as he assumed. However, by the time he noticed, it was too late.
