Jiang Suqing's face was twisted.
It was so distorted that her mask began to wrinkle, causing her face to become distorted and blurry.
Not far away, the Eternal Night Army soldiers were shouting and rushing towards Fang Xin and his companions.
Because of Jiang Suqing's sudden exposure, the mission had a flaw.
But seeing nearly half of the people charging towards Fang Xin's squad, Su Ben immediately ordered to destroy the Artillery Battalion as quickly as possible.
He also sent General Dadaguai to support Fang Xin and his companions.
A giant earthen hand suddenly appeared from the ground, grabbing towards Fang Xin and his companions, attempting to use Earth Escape again to retrieve them.
However, to his surprise, even when wrapped in earth, the pink smoke around Fang Xin could still permeate through the soil, essentially giving the enemy x-ray vision.
Jiang Suqing turned her head to look at Fang Xin, a smug smile of a successful conspiracy on her face.
"You're on the verge of death, yet still spouting nonsense! Let's see how long you can keep this up!"
With the pink smoke from Fang Xin as a marker, the people in the Eternal Night Army Artillery Battalion launched a combined attack.
The earth exploded.
Fang Xin and his companions emerged from the earth.
Two bursts of green light erupted from Tang Hu's hands, radiating in all directions from his feet.
Hundreds of columnar cacti immediately sprang up from the ground.
These hundreds of columnar cacti intertwined and densely spread, forming a giant cactus enclosure, protecting Fang Xin and his companions below.
Tang Hu made a hand seal, and the dense small thorns on the cacti shot out like a rain of pear blossoms in all directions.
Piercing, sharp sounds echoed in the air.
In just an instant, several people at the front of the Artillery Battalion were riddled with holes.
The remaining people quickly put up protective shields and defensive artifacts.
The Artillery Battalion Head's eyes glowed fiercely as his gaze shifted.
He quickly locked onto Fang Xin and Jiang Suqing. "Everyone, listen to my command! Forget about those cannons! Capture these two! The Knights Order and the Ninth Division are protecting them! These two must have high status and some background! Capturing them is worth losing a few cannons!"
The Artillery Battalion soldiers who were originally protecting their positions immediately rushed towards them upon hearing this.
Dozens of people split into two groups, charging towards Fang Xin's squad.
Jiang Suqing and her companions, who had intended to rendezvous with the young leader of the Knights Order, were immediately surrounded by over twenty people.
Over twenty people also charged towards Fang Xin's side. Tang Hu cursed loudly, "My regards to your ancestors!"
Shi Tailang stood shoulder to shoulder with Fang Xin. "Heh! Damn it! You really can't tempt fate! Before coming, I said the matter of continuing the family line for three generations hadn't been settled, and I didn't expect to encounter this on my first day on the battlefield!"
"Nothing will happen!"
Fang Xin did not rush to reveal the Kou Family Army jade token. If he revealed it too early and the Knights Order people ran back, they might frame Fang Xin as an Eternal Night Army spy, which would be even more troublesome.
He had to wait for the Artillery Battalion reinforcements to arrive. The Artillery Battalion reinforcements could arrive in one and a half minutes. One minute had already passed, so if he stalled for a little longer, the reinforcements would be there soon.
Moreover, it was clear that the Artillery Battalion people intended to capture them alive to extract their value.
Jiang Suqing was now completely surrounded, looking slightly flustered, clearly unable to escape.
Once the reinforcements arrived and Jiang Suqing was captured, revealing the jade token would put Jiang Suqing's life in his hands.
His peripheral vision shifted, and indeed, the Artillery Battalion reinforcements were converging towards them.
Seeing this, Su Ben led his men towards Fang Xin, wanting to rescue him, while the Knights Order frantically tried to rescue Jiang Suqing.
The Artillery Battalion Head laughed heartily, "My guess was indeed correct; these two must be important people! At all costs, others can be ignored, but these two must be held here!"
Hundreds of enemy soldiers charged towards them.
Seeing this, the Knights Order people shouted, "Go!"
Jiang Suqing was stunned, stomping her feet and screaming, "I haven't left yet! Hey! Don't leave me! Don't leave me! You beasts! Don't leave me! Do you know who my brother is? Do you know who my father is? All of you, get back here! Get back here! Do you still want to survive in the Knights Order?!"
However, those people didn't give it any extra thought. In such a situation, they wouldn't make unnecessary sacrifices and turned to leave.
Seeing this, Jiang Suqing panicked, "Don't go, please don't go, take me with you! I beg you!"
Su Ben's eyes blazed with anger, and his jaw muscles twitched. Tang Hu shouted, "Squad Leader Su, you guys go first! These bastards want to capture us alive! As long as we don't die, there's a chance!"
There was no scene like in TV dramas from hundreds of years ago where characters endlessly debated "You go! No, you go!" only to all die.
Su Ben made a decisive decision, "We're leaving!"
The Artillery Battalion reinforcements had already charged over, hundreds of people surrounding Fang Xin's squad in three layers.
Tang Hu's domain couldn't hold up and shattered on the spot. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted, eyes rolling back. Shi Tailang was also knocked out by the shockwave. Only Fang Xin, being tough, merely suffered a few scratches.
The Head looked at Jiang Suqing, "Haha! This bitch exposed herself! Her family are all Knights Order people! From her tone, she's quite high-ranking!"
As he spoke, he went up and slapped her, "Damn you, I hate you Knights Order people the most!"
The slap immediately knocked off Jiang Suqing's mask, revealing her alluring face.
The Artillery Battalion Head licked his lips, his gaze burning. He hadn't expected such an exciting woman. His blood surged, and he began to act lewdly.
"What the heck? Her looks, wouldn't they blow up the domestic section?"
Jiang Suqing had naturally heard of the brutality of the Eternal Night Army.
She quickly backed away, "I am from the Yang Family, the Yang Family backed by the White Lotus Society! Don't touch me, don't touch me! We can give you anything you want, money? Artifacts? Or something else? As long as you let me go, your demands will surely be met!"
The Artillery Battalion Head smiled, scratched the side of his face, and brazenly scrutinized Jiang Suqing's figure.
"Alright, caught a big fish! Looks like we can indeed squeeze some oil out of her!"
Jiang Suqing heard this and pointed towards Fang Xin, "I can give you money, a lot of money, but there's one thing, can you let me kill him?"
The Artillery Battalion Head glanced at Fang Xin, then slapped Jiang Suqing across the face.
"Are you telling me what to do?"
Jiang Suqing covered her face.
With venom in her eyes, she turned to look in Fang Xin's direction, gritted her teeth, "As long as you kill him, no, as long as you let me kill him, I'll do anything you want!"
"Oh? Anything?" The Artillery Battalion Head licked his lips.
Jiang Suqing said coquettishly, bumping the Artillery Battalion Head's shoulder, "Anything, I'll be whatever you want me to be!"
It had to be said, Jiang Suqing was very skilled. In a few words, she fanned the flames of desire in the Artillery Battalion Head. He pinched Jiang Suqing's chin, "Letting you kill him is definitely not possible."
"Then letting me torture him is fine, right, boss? Anyway, you also need to keep a living captive. I won't torture him to death, so this should be fine, right?"
As she spoke, she rubbed against the Artillery Battalion Head.
The Artillery Battalion Head immediately grinned and laughed loudly, "Alright! Haha! Of course!"
As he spoke, he looked at Fang Xin, "Tie this kid up and let my little beauty torment him!"
Jiang Suqing's face was ferocious, "You've finally fallen into my hands!"
Fang Xin slowly raised his hand, two fingers holding the Kou Family Army jade token.
"Really? I don't believe it!"
