Boom!

At this moment, within the Dragon Nest Tribe, as the mercenaries continued to set fires everywhere, scorching flames rose up and gradually spread out.

"Damn, what the hell is going on?!"

Mercenary Deputy Captain Murphy looked at his teammates who were running around setting fires, his face somewhat grim.

These houses were primarily brick and wood structures, and from the beginning, there were considerations for potential disasters like fires, with preventative measures like spacing taken care of.

What Murphy didn't know was that the Dragon Nest Tribe designed it this way precisely because during a particular attack on a Centaur Tribe, the Fox-faced Man Quik had used a Flame Burst Technique that resulted in a massive fire, causing the entire Centaur Tribe to collapse, allowing the Dragon Nest Tribe to win that war easily, which led to the formation of their cavalry units.

From that battle, Austin saw the weaknesses in wooden and grassy structures, and upon returning to the tribe, he specifically instructed the Goblin Manufacturing Workshop to produce large quantities of bricks for the purpose of updating the construction of the Dragon Nest Tribe's houses, and also to implement fire prevention measures in daily life.

It was precisely these arrangements laid out back then that made Murphy and the other mercenaries' fire-starting efforts encounter unprecedented difficulty. It took considerable time to barely ignite a single house, but the isolated spacing made it hard for the flames to spread.

"Damn it, we have to continue!"

Gazing at the house behind him, with barely a few flames and smoke rising, Murphy felt a heavy oppressive feeling in his chest.

But even knowing that the longer they delayed, the more dangerous it became, there was no choice but to risk setting fires to cause greater chaos.

...

At the same time, at the City Hall.

Bang!

Accompanied by the loud noise, the sound of wooden spears breaking came, and the spears in the hands of the young Beastmen rushing forward were directly shattered, with several figures being blown away.

The difference in combat strength was indeed too great!

These young Beastmen, though trained, had bodies that had not fully grown, with strength even less than half of that of adult Beastmen. Yet their opponents were truly battle-hardened extraordinary mercenary professionals, and the elite kind at that. How could these young Beastmen possibly withstand them?

In no time, the young Beastmen team was easily defeated by two people. As fighting qi surged, everyone standing fell to the ground, the whole scene as effortlessly destructive as breaking dead wood.

However, when Brown and Blake had knocked down the young Beastmen in front of them, they suddenly heard heavy breathing, as a single figure swayed and stood up again.

Among all the wounded on the ground, only that single figure rose once more.

"Even if I must stake my life, I... must not retreat!"

The broken wooden spear was heavily thrust upside down into the ground, and leveraging that force, the teetering figure of Meng Bi suddenly stood firm, his bloodshot eyes fixed intently on Brown and Blake ahead.

Behind him lay the great His Highness Austin, who had granted them new life, and his sister!

No matter what, he could not fall!

In that moment, an indomitable will somehow supported that battered body, and Meng Bi, leaning on the broken wooden spear, stood up once more.

Drip, drip...

Drip by drip, crimson blood dripped from the gaping wounds on his body, with the deeply torn wounds even revealing the white bones underneath, his whole body drenched in blood. The excruciating pain surged through every muscle in his body like a tsunami, almost engulfing him entirely, yet in that powerful will was like a reef that remained unmoved.

Such injuries should not have allowed him to stand again, but Meng Bi had done it.

He dragged his shattered body and stood up once more, once again blocking their path!

He absolutely could not let them pass through here!

That unprecedented resolve completely took over his body, causing the nearly shattered young Beastman to stand up again from the brink of death.

"What?!!!"

Confronted with this scene, even Brown and Blake were shaken by Meng Bi's insane and resolute will.

In their mercenary careers, their hands had been stained with no small amount of lives, yet this was the first time they'd seen a yet-to-come-of-age Beastman defeated once and stand up again with such unyielding force of will!

"Kid, do you really want to die so much?"

Brown, wielding the wolf fang club, looked at the jackal Beastman Meng Bi who stood before him with incredible willpower, his voice low.

What kind of willpower could it possibly take for a young Beastman to endure and stand before them with such a broken body!

But,

Though the will was shocking, they were not saintly soft-hearted people.

There were always enemies one couldn't surpass in this world, and in reality, youthful passion didn't always lead to success.

Brown raised the wolf fang club high above, casting a shadow that enveloped Meng Bi's entire body, clearly about to smash his head in the next moment.

Just at this moment,

"I will bet my life with you!!!"

Blood oozed from his skin, dyeing Meng Bi's fur a deep red, his broken left hand hanging powerless, yet those blood-colored eyes were filled with sheer madness and ferocity.

In the next instant, a wave of invisible majesty suddenly surged from Meng Bi's blood red pupils, causing Brown to be momentarily stunned.

In the brief moment of Brown's stupor, Meng Bi moved, darting forward like a cheetah, transforming into a blood-red shadow that leapt onto Brown.

Roar!!!

With a mad howl, Meng Bi opened his mouth, fiercely biting towards Brown's neck, yet Brown was, after all, a battle-hardened elite mercenary, instinctively dodging at the moment he sensed danger, leaving Meng Bi to bite his shoulder, tearing off a large chunk of flesh.

"Ah!!!"

Brown cried out in pain, instinctively swinging his arm wildly, but Meng Bi clung like a maddened dog, his jaws locked on tight.

At the same time, Meng Bi thrust the broken spear fiercely into his own dangling left arm.

Splatter!

Blood spurted out, with the broken spear piercing through his thin arm, and subsequently embedding into Brown's shoulder.

He intended to use such self-mutilation to secure himself to the enemy!

"Ah! Bastard!"

Brown roared in anger, his fighting qi burst forth, sending the spear that skewered Meng Bi's arm and pierced his shoulder flying, while a raging torrent of energy blasted out, immediately sending the heavily scarred Meng Bi flying, and kicked him in the stomach, causing Meng Bi to crash backward like a cannonball.
