Chapter 843 -706 Can You Hold on for Ten Minutes?_2

The sounds of crackling and popping came from all around.

Every breath was filled with scorching air.

Flames blazed everywhere, and above their heads, the steel wire net seemed ready to collapse. Once the tree trunks were devoured by the wildfire, the iron net would still continue to fall.

And it seemed they still had no way to avoid it.

Catalina looked toward the young man beside her.

His face, lit by the firelight, remained calm and composed. His silver-white pupils twinkled with a faint light, but they were also devoid of emotion, tranquil like a cold and bone-chilling deep pool.

It seemed no matter what, one could never see him panic, so calm he appeared almost like a mindless puppet.

Hasn’t the situation already become almost hopeless?

Why is he still so composed?

Even if he does have some sort of ace up his sleeve, would it hurt to show just a little surprise or confusion?

Catalina stared at him, puzzled, for quite a while.

Until he looked back at her with a questioning gaze.

So she took the opportunity to ask: “Aren’t you worried at all?”

Xu Shuo raised an eyebrow: “Worried about what?”

“If we can’t get out…”

“Then you might as well stay here and become a raincloud.”

“…?”

Catalina was almost getting used to being choked up.

She rubbed her arms and seemed somewhat aggrieved as she pursed her lips.

Xu Shuo’s spiritual power was constantly scanning the surroundings, but for the moment he hadn’t noticed any other ambushers in the forest. Seeing the iron net loosen again, he raised his hand.

Catalina instinctively looked over.

But she didn’t feel any magic energy, while a glow had already emanated from the young man’s palm. The flames around intensified, seemingly resonating with it.

“Keep up.”

A deep voice sounded.

The next moment, the orb of light in Xu Shuo’s hand was thrown out, turning into a column of light that abruptly sliced through the flames on both sides!

Xu Shuo swiftly moved forward following the light column, and this time Catalina reacted quickly and followed closely behind him.

She looked back to see the flames that had just been parted swallowing their path once again.

The flames on both sides were extremely close, almost scorching their bodies, but at this time, they could no longer expect a better environment to escape, and Catalina had to endure the high temperature.

She fixed her eyes on the person’s figure ahead of her.

The Clerical Robe being lifted by the hot air seemed to radiate light, the surrounding flames highlighting his silver hair, each strand tipped with gold.

Catalina kept her eyes fixed.

Suddenly, the young man threw something black toward her from behind.

Running behind, Catalina, caught off guard, directly collided with the black object, her entire body covered by the falling cloak, and she could no longer see anything.

She fumbled to lift the cloth from her head, and looking up, she was momentarily dazzled by a sudden burst of golden light.

His silver eyes instantly shifted to vertical pupils, and Catalina squinted to look.

In the light, the young man’s figure turned its head and said, “Wear this cloak, stay away from crowded places once you’re out, and wait for me outside of Dalton City. Remember, you have only five minutes to escape.”

Catalina was so stunned that she didn’t respond.

Receiving no reply, Xu Shuo turned puzzledly to look at her: “Did you hear me?”

“I don’t know the way.”

Catalina blurted out.

Xu Shuo paused: “Then just find a deserted hill to wait on but head east, I don’t want to fall back there.”

After saying this.

The two had already dashed out of the forest along the path cleared by the light column, with no time to react, countless arrows flew towards them!

Catalina’s ferocity showed for a moment, the overwhelming murderous intent making her shiver with chills!

She even subconsciously wanted to release the Dawn Guardian Spirit.

However, the young man ahead suddenly grabbed a dark green Bamboo Joint Cane, without any magical energy fluctuation, but a strong light flashed on the cane’s body, suddenly swung out!

Whoosh—

The ring of light he swung swept through the air, instantly shattering the rain of arrows before them, exploding into clusters of golden fireworks in the mid-air.

Catalina’s floating aura slightly subsided.

She looked out at the valley, feeling the intense tremors of the ground, watching the heavy cavalry roaring towards the sunset, rushing like ten thousand horses, magnificent and powerful!

Catalina quickly glanced at the young man standing in front of her, then turned her head to look at the mountainside.

“I’m off!”

She put on her cloak’s hood, turned around, and rushed towards the slope, with delicate ice forming under her feet, leaping straight into the air.

The human army pressed forward.

Catalina had no intention of dallying.

Strangely, there seemed to be no enemy coming to stop her escape.

Xu Shuo did not even look at her movements, but instead focused on the silver-helmeted general behind the heavy cavalry, a faint smile budding at the corner of his lips, his fingers gently touching the long cane.

The leading heavy cavalrymen wore armor.

As they charged with their spears.

He did not dodge, but instead met them with even greater speed!

The dark green cane left a trail of light, and the approaching heavy cavalrymen had not yet reacted, only seeing that light trace descending upon their faces!

Their armor was sturdy, the steel helmets completely covering their bodies, even their eyes hidden behind the plate armor.

The tip of this ordinary ceremonial staff was not at all sharp.

It seemed utterly incapable of penetrating the protective armor.

In that moment, these thoughts flashed through the cavalryman’s mind, his spear instinctively lancing out, but then his body was struck by a tremendous force, involuntarily tumbling backward and collapsing.

The sound of armor hitting the ground was sharp and staggered.

The charge of the heavy cavalry did not slow because of this; the cavalryman who fell was directly trampled over by the iron hooves of the charging rear, quickly obscured in dust and smoke.

After repelling that foremost cavalryman, Xu Shuo grabbed the reins of that warhorse, spun his body and straddled its back.

But ahead of the charge was a fiercely burning forest, so he quickly turned the horse’s head towards the slope.

At that moment, a spear thrust diagonally at him, aiming directly at his head!

Xu Shuo abruptly leaned back, the sharp spear passing before his eyes, missing its target only to swing back towards his neck.

Just as the warhorse slowed its charging speed.

His flanks were immediately rushed by relentless heavy cavalrymen with spears filled with murderous intent, thrusting rapidly at him without fear and driving their horses to ram into him!

Xu Shuo swung his cane to block several attacks, seeing the pincering cavalrymen attempting to ram him, he fiercely pulled on the reins!

The warhorse neighed, its front hooves rising high, slowing its pace, lagging a few steps behind.

However, the unyielding cavalrymen on both sides collided directly with each other, instantly people and horses toppled over, with the heavy clang of armor resonating, tumbling several times on the ground.

But still, no one lingered for this.

The warhorse briskly jumped over obstacles on the ground.

As Xu Shuo again slowed down, he was completely overtaken by the pursuing enemy forces from the rear, countless heavy cavalrymen rushing past him from both sides, forming an arc-shaped array to completely block his way.

This was not only an elite force.

It was also a hysterical suicidal chase.

Xu Shuo scoffed, abruptly pulled the reins, prompting the warhorse to make a 90-degree turn, its front hooves nearly overturning.

Turning around again, Xu Shuo faced the direction of the heavy cavalry’s charge and counter-charged, the two forces about to clash!

But he kept his eyes fixed on the general behind the heavy cavalry.

At this moment, the latter evidently realized that he was the target.

Because of the tightly sealed plate armor and helmet, the expression of the general on the warhorse was unclear, but he suddenly held up a thick heavy bow, a sharp arrow placed on it, pulled taut by him.

Boom—

Following the resonant sound, the arrow shot forward with the momentum of lightning, passing through the sides of numerous heavy cavalrymen, rushing towards the man coming head-on!

Xu Shuo’s lips curled into a smirk.

The next moment, a bloodied axe unexpectedly appeared in his hand, and his entire being instantly vanished from the warhorse!

Zhizh!

The whistling arrow struck a heavy cavalryman behind, the huge force even piercing through the breastplate of the cavalry, knocking him heavily to the ground.

The general atop the warhorse was suddenly startled.

He abruptly looked up, catching sight of the youth appearing above him on the side, a nefarious smile lifting the handsome and refined features of his face.

“So, can you last ten minutes?”
