Blood splattered across Zhai Qianqian's face. The arrow stopped mere inches from between her brows.
"Where are our Monster Hunter Archers? Fire!"
Without being told, their Monster Hunter Archers had already returned fire the moment the enemy launched their sneak attack. "Buzzz! Buzzz! Buzzz!"
"Baozi, how are you?"
"I'm fine. Baozi!"
A boy of sixteen or seventeen had an arrow lodged in his chest, his face frighteningly pale.
"Big Sister, being able to protect you was my honor. Even dying was worth it. It's just that my parents are still buried in Honggu City. I miss them so much. Can we ever fight our way back? I want to kowtow before their graves one more time."

Zhai Qianqian clenched her teeth. Her hands trembled, but she still reached out to pull out the deadly arrow.
Baozi's face twisted with pain, and he could not help crying out loudly.
Zhai Qianqian hardened her heart and twisted with all her strength. With a wet squelch, the arrow
