Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.
Chapter 19 Hawkins' Squad
The tiger-shaped ferocious beast was none other than Little Orange. At this moment, Little Orange had reverted to its Sky-Splitting Tiger form, with light element flames spewing from its mouth from time to time. After forming a contract, it had been learning a lot about mental power manipulation from Su Yang.
The team worked seamlessly together, quickly forming a formation. A pioneer and the guard stood at the front to block Xiao Ju's attack, while the sharpshooter and the healer were at the back of the team. Another pioneer closely protected the sharpshooter, while the rogue used cloud elements to disengage from the battle and look for an opportunity to strike.
The fight was initiated by Little Orange, who pounced forward and struck out with its claw.
"Solid Shield!" The guard immediately stepped forward, and as he shouted, the earth element was activated instantly. Countless sand and stones rose from the ground and adhered to the surface of the shield. Xiao Ju's attack only managed to disperse the sand and stones. Then, the air element pioneer raised his sword and slashed at Xiao Ju's tiger claw.
"Gale Slash!" As he shouted, a wave of energy rippled across the sword, and the sword energy slashed down sharply. Little Orange withdrew its claws and retreated from the attack range, and the two engaged in another fierce battle.
Although Xiao Ju had only recently come of age, it had already transformed into a spirit beast. Seeing that it could not break through the two in front, it turned its attention to the three behind it. With a tiger's roar, orange light flashed beneath Xiao Ju's feet, and its speed suddenly increased, allowing it to overtake the two and attack the archer and healer behind it.
"Not good!" The two in front were shocked and immediately tried to turn back to defend, but they couldn't catch up with Xiao Ju's speed. The water elemental pioneer behind them was already prepared.
"Water Wall!" As soon as the words were spoken, a light blue water wall rose around the three of them with a sword dance, protecting them. This attack was once again thwarted, and another battle ensued. However, the good times did not last long. The two pioneers and the guards were all injured and were now defending themselves in a sorry state. The healer kept mobilizing wood element to heal their wounds.
Su Yang was engrossed in watching, thinking that Little Orange was quite clever, always attacking the weakest points in the defenses. Just then, the sharpshooter, seemingly having prepared for a long time, let out a delicate shout: "Fire Arrows!" Several arrows wreathed in flames shot towards Little Orange. Little Orange dodged the arrows several times, but the arrows exploded into flames upon landing, forcing Little Orange to retreat. As it retreated, the stealthy stalker, who had been silent until now, made his move. He appeared not far behind Little Orange and fiercely fired several short swords. The number of swords suddenly increased the instant they were fired. Su Yang was startled and couldn't help but shout in his heart:
"Watch out behind you, Little Orange!"
As if by telepathy, the little orange tiger's body trembled, and then, as if extremely angry, it turned its head and let out a deafening roar. As the roar was released, all the incoming hidden weapons turned to stone and fell to the ground. At the same time, affected by the roar, the stalker was shaken out of the bushes and was lying on the ground spitting blood.
Su Yang was afraid that Xiao Ju would get hurt, and seeing Xiao Ju's sudden reaction just now, he remembered that he could transmit his voice, and quickly said to Xiao Ju:
"Little Orange, get out of here quickly, and stop fighting for now."
Xiao Ju understood immediately, glanced at the group who looked like they were facing a formidable enemy, and then turned and disappeared into the jungle.
Although Xiao Ju had left, the group remained vigilant. The healers continued to treat their injured companions, while the rest kept watch over their surroundings. It took them quite a while to finally relax.
Su Yang had thought that the team would be reluctant to leave after this battle, but after a brief discussion and rest, they set off into the jungle again.
"It seems they are very determined and will not give up until they achieve their goal," Su Yang sighed. "Die'er, let's go back and have Linglong stop mobilizing the fog element, and then come out to continue monitoring."
After saying this, Su Yang headed towards the shelter. On his way back, the adventure team encountered several ferocious beasts. When Su Yang returned to monitor the situation, he found that they were seriously injured. The two pioneers lay on the ground, panting heavily, covered in blood, their weapons shattered. The guards stood guard, but judging from their cracked shields, they would be exhausted after another battle. The sharpshooter had already fallen into a coma. The rogue had been seriously injured in the battle with Xiao Ju and was currently receiving treatment. The healer was exhausted, his eyes and body showing signs of fatigue, seemingly unable to continue, but he was still continuing to treat his teammates.
Su Yang felt a pang of guilt, after all, they were the first humans he had encountered since coming to this world. At the same time, Su Yang could basically tell that they were not necessarily his enemies. Being able to persuade them to leave would be a good deed. So Su Yang walked out of the jungle and stopped a few meters away from the team.
Upon suddenly encountering a savage-like human, the entire team tensed up again. Those who could stand trembled. Seeing this, Su Yang was at a loss for how to respond. More importantly, he realized after stepping out that his social anxiety had flared up again, so the scene became awkward. Both sides stood there, neither speaking nor moving.
Finally, one of the guards in the squad couldn't hold back any longer and spoke first: "Who are you! Why are you here!"
Su Yang was startled to hear this; the people from this other world were speaking Chinese! This overjoyed him, but he was also momentarily stumped. He quickly found a piece of bark and used his elemental energy to cut and write on it:
"You should leave, or you will be stuck here forever."
Su Yang, who had intended to offer kind advice, threw the tree bark at the guard to show him. Unexpectedly, Xiao Ju appeared beside Su Yang in the form of a Sky-Splitting Tiger. The guard, both surprised and furious, exclaimed:
"Who are you?! Why are you attacking us?!"
Su Yang was speechless, but he could understand. He figured after so many battles, their nerves were incredibly tense, and it was normal for them to get angry when they were extremely stressed. Su Yang also found carving on the tree bark too troublesome, so he reluctantly began to speak:
"I, I'm not a bad person. I, I live here. You, you all, you should leave, leave this island."
Before the guard could speak, the healer spoke first.
"You live here? Could you take us to your place first? My companions are all seriously injured. We'll leave as soon as we're healed, okay?"
She pleaded with Su Yang, her voice trembling with tears.
Su Yang was taken aback upon hearing this, thinking to himself, "Is this guy crazy? He wants to go to my place? How am I supposed to know what you guys will do there? What if there are too many of you ganging up on me?"
After thinking it over, he immediately refused, saying, "No, I can't take you back, but I can escort you to the ship."
The healer was taken aback, but quickly understood Su Yang's implied meaning and hurriedly said, "Thank you so much. It would be great if you could escort us to the ship. Thank you."
So Su Yang mounted the Sky-Splitting Tiger, raised his hand to activate cloud element, and materialized something like a trolley, allowing the guards to place the injured person on it. They proceeded ahead, while Su Yang guided the way from behind.
Along the way, the guards pulled their teammates forward with their heads down, while the healers pushed from behind. Su Yang rode the Sky-Splitting Tiger, keeping a distance of five meters behind. During this time, the healers would occasionally turn around to communicate with Su Yang, trying to get information, but Su Yang didn't reply to a word. This was because Su Yang hadn't cut his hair for more than two years, and his entire face was hidden behind his hair, which made the healers unsure of where to look.
Through the one-way communication with the healer, Su Yang actually learned a lot of information.
This squad is called Hawkins Squad, and its leader is Hawkins, who is a guard. According to the Dragon Continent Adventurers' Guild's rating system, this squad belongs to the Jade level. There are seven levels of adventurer squads in total, from top to bottom: Crimson Storm, Orange Sky, Gold, Jade, Azure, Azure Cloud, and Purple Sun. Their main purpose in coming to the island was to find the Jade Fruit, a material for healing the archer, but they did not expect to be brutally beaten by the ferocious beasts on the island.
