"AAAAAH!!!"
Filled with fear and pain, shrill screams rang out across the battlefield without end.
The splashed venom corroded skin and muscle. The thugs unfortunate enough to be caught in their Tide Retreat Gang leader's attack rolled across the ground in agony, while the pus-green poison rapidly spread around their wounds.
Having failed their Perception checks, [Night Mother's Gaze] took effect without a sound. Their wills seemed to be swallowed by the Wolf Howl resounding in their hearts, plunging them into boundless terror. One Murloc underling after another abandoned their weapons and fled in panic toward the forest outside the warehouse.
The situation on the battlefield was currently in a state of utter chaos.
Yet each side saw things differently.
From Xia Nan's perspective, although most of his temporary teammates had been killed or wounded, the only remaining combatants on his side were himself and a Ranger.
But he had also seized the opportunity to decapitate the Murloc Priest, the greatest threat in the enemy ranks. Moreover, the other leader, "Rotten Vulture" Geli, happened to have a fighting style countered by his Snake Scale Arm Shield.
Aside from that, the rest were merely ordinary gang members and Murloc grunts whom he could deal with relatively easily.
A few passes with [Tooth Hunt], followed by [Whirlwind Slash] and [Heavy Tide] at most, would basically be enough to finish them off.
The scales of victory were undoubtedly tipping toward his side.
But to "Rotten Vulture" Geli, the situation seemed to favor him instead.
After only a few hurried exchanges, he had keenly gauged Xia Nan's vague level of strength.
His actual combat power was completely at odds with that excessively youthful face.
Even his equipment was exceptionally fine.
In a true one-on-one fight, he really might not be a match for this
