"Damn it! The enemies keep coming out... Li Yue! Are you okay over there?"

"We can still hold on for now, but if we continue like this we won't be able to hold on for much longer!"

On a plain that seemed to have no end, several mercenaries were protecting an ordinary truck and fighting against the imperial soldiers who kept appearing.

Although the mercenary leader was very powerful, enemies kept appearing from all directions - it was as if their whereabouts had been exposed from the very beginning.

"Tsk...Is there no other way but to get out of this damn place?"

After chopping down an approaching soldier with his Dou Qi sword, the mercenary leader took a tired breath and looked at his comrades on the other side.

The man heaved a sigh of relief after watching the fox-eared woman release magic and blast the last enemy away with a simple fireball.

The enemies weren't particularly strong, but they seemed to be able to temporarily increase their strength in some way, so it still took some effort to deal with them...and the biggest problem was that such enemies would appear every hour or so.

"We can't go on like this, otherwise we won't be able to get out of this place."

"I know, but..."

"You guys take a rest first, I'll go talk to His Highness."

……

The mercenaries escorting the truck were none other than Kuran and several of his group's strongest alien members.

After coming into contact with the Third Prince in the Dukedom of Oufei, he assisted him in formulating an escape plan - although the Third Prince is still a minor, as a member of the royal family, his mind is much more stable and mature than that of ordinary people.

In fact, this escape plan was almost entirely planned by the third prince alone.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness. Are you okay?"

The truck was just a crude disguise - in reality, there was no cargo on board, and almost all of the space inside was used to set up protective barrier devices.

Hiding in the small barrier at this time was the Third Prince Roland Armand and the young boy and girl he took away from Aarons when he left the border territory.

Els and Mellie - that seemed to be the name of the two little ones.

"...It's no problem. I'm also a level 3 magician. I can hold on to this barrier for a long time."

"No, that's not what I wanted to tell you... Your Highness, we have been being hunted by the enemy since three days ago. If this continues, our guards will soon be exhausted."

After learning that his ancestors were direct descendants of the imperial royal family, Kulan began to treat the third prince as his younger brother.

He is the only son in the family and the only remaining heir of this bloodline. Although he has the noble status of the Duchy of Corinth, the nobles of the Duchy have no real power. They only have a small piece of territory that is not very suitable for doing anything.

So he was actually quite happy to find a backer in the empire... provided they survived.

"So I want to suggest to you... If we want to shake off those pursuers, we may need to go around the war zone and take advantage of the chaos there."

"Near a war zone? Wouldn't that be dangerous?"

Of course, Kulan knew that this was a very risky decision, but if he didn't do this, they would be killed by pursuers from an unknown force before they even reached the border.

Therefore, their only option now is to turn around immediately, rush all the way to the war zone and then find an opportunity to get rid of those people behind them.

"Because there is no other way. We haven't even had time to sleep these past few days. If we endure for a few more days, we won't have the strength to fight anymore."

Although the physiological functions of the human body will be greatly improved after the fourth level of fighting spirit or magic, and not eating or sleeping for more than ten days will not have much impact. But humans are not machines after all, and the body will still accumulate fatigue and damage after exceeding the limit.

So Kuran decided to solve this thorny problem once and for all before they reached their limit.

"Okay, let's do as you say. We..."

"Captain! It's bad! There's a monster behind us... a monster of at least level four coming towards us!"

……

If a human were to fight alone, the suppression of level 5 over level 4 would be almost absolute. However, if a human were to fight a monster head-on, a level 5 human could only barely remain undefeated against a level 4 monster.

The specifications of Warcraft are much higher than those of humans, so their level only refers to their defense - a level 4 Warcraft can only be harmed by attacks from combat professionals above level 4, and the same goes for levels 3 and 5.

But defense is one thing, and attack power and vitality are another.

"It's a medium-sized quadrupedal monster, about 500 meters away from us... It's moving very fast!"

"Damn it! Is this the magical beast that those bastards kept in captivity?"

It's not that Kuran has not considered this possibility, but level three monsters are usually the limit.

It is difficult for humans to tame magical beasts that are much stronger and more wild than themselves, so magical beasts above level four are almost unable to coexist with humans.

But just as the pursuit team was wiped out, a monster chased after them. This was definitely not a coincidence.

"There's nothing we can do... Li Yue, you guys take the truck and go ahead as planned! I'll delay that guy for a while!"

Among these people, only Kulan, who is at level five, can barely fight against the monsters. If others interfere casually, they may be killed immediately.

"Yes! Everyone, follow—"

"No! It's too late! That guy's speed is too fast! Everyone, protect the truck and yourself first!"

Kulan, who was somewhat exhausted from the continuous fighting, had just gathered his fighting spirit when the gigantic monster with an unbelievable speed had already rushed in front of them.

There was no fur, scales or shell, only abnormally swollen red muscles and a strangely distorted human face - the approaching monster seemed like a monster forcibly transformed from skinless humans, and its entire body exuded a disgusting strange feeling.

That was definitely not a naturally born monster...Kulan immediately understood some of the hidden meanings in it.

"Damn it, at a time like this..."

The Warcraft's twisted human face kept making hoarse growls, and black smoke and sparks kept spewing out of its mouth.

And Kuran also felt a frightening power from the opponent's intimidating aura.

"I'll lead this guy away, and you guys find a chance to escape immediately!"

——If you do this, you might die.

Such a thought suddenly flashed through Kuran's mind, but he immediately put it aside.

This is a battle of life and death - if I can't concentrate, others might die here too.

"That's true, but I'm not that strong!"

Even though he had no idea how much chance he had of winning, Kuran still mobilized all his strength and launched an active attack on the powerful enemy.

But before the fighting spirit in Kuran's hand, which had transformed into a long sword, came into contact with the powerful body of the monster, a heart-pounding feeling suddenly enveloped everyone present.

——A flash later, several pure black beams suddenly shot out from the sides of the man and the beast, penetrating the huge body of the monster without any hindrance.

And when the black foreign substance like corrosive poison instantly spread from the wound, the huge body of the invincible monster suddenly decayed and collapsed, quickly melting into a pool of rotten black mud.

"Varied--"

"...Tsk, I don't want to do this kind of work without overtime pay anymore...Why should I work now?"

When Kuran finally understood what was happening in front of him, a hoarse voice that sounded familiar, cold and lazy came from the side.

"Forget it... Mr. Captain, do you remember who I am?"
