"Fei Que."
As his thoughts raced, Zhou Xu beckoned to Fei Que.
Fei Que, who was likewise holding a Bone Spear and had just swept a skeleton off its feet, immediately understood. He hurried over in two strides and leaned his ear close.
After a quick whisper, Zhou Xu rapidly explained the situation and set the plan into motion.
Meanwhile, amid the enemy formation in the distance, the enemy leader—the "necromancer"—was fighting while completely disguised as a Spearmen, holding a Bone Spear in his hand.
Perhaps because he had carefully studied his enemies' mindset, he had not chosen the much more convenient Great Shield Soldier to hide among.
He would only coordinate appropriately with the Great Shield Soldier beside him whenever he needed to use his abilities, casting spells under the Great Shield Soldier's cover.
This time was no exception. The enemy leader had been secretly watching the battle on the other side from the corner of his eye. Seeing the Skeleton Soldiers in the distance repeatedly knocked over and even smashed apart, he quickly said...
"Cover me."
There was no need for further explanation. The Great Shield Soldier sprang forward, raised his shield, and completely blocked him from view behind it.
Just as he was preparing to cast another spell and pull those fallen skeletons back to their feet, Fei Que suddenly sucked in a deep breath and shouted...
"Dashan! Hit that guy hiding behind the great shield!!"
The battlefield was chaotic, but Fei Que's voice carried remarkably far.
Amid the melee, Dashan glanced toward where Fei Que was pointing and immediately spotted a Great Shield Soldier in the enemy formation quietly retreating a little.
The movement was slight. Before this, Dashan certainly would not have noticed it. But Fei Que's warning instantly made the man's presence stick out like a sore thumb.
"All of you, get the hell out of my way!!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Dashan roared. After breaking off half a spear shaft and taking a short spear in each hand, he fought with even greater ferocity.
After forcing back the enemies swarming him, Dashan drove off with both legs. His entire body shot toward the target like a ferocious beast descending the mountain!
As the one being targeted, the enemy leader truly could not understand how he had been exposed.
Although Dashan's attack had startled him, the enemy leader managed to keep his composure at the critical moment. He quickly cast a spell, pulling the fallen Skeleton Soldiers back to their feet and stopping Fei Que and the others, who had been preparing to charge forward and provide support.
Then he hurriedly shouted...
"Stop him!!"
Clearly, he had already witnessed Dashan's ferocity.
Despite their overwhelming numerical advantage, they had been unable to completely defeat the other side. Dashan's presence was the main reason!
Now that Dashan was charging straight toward him, it would have been a lie to say he was not panicking.
The Great Shield Soldier blocking his way was panicking too.
But with the leader's order already given, he had no way to retreat. He could only grit his teeth, raise his shield, and charge forward!
However, in Dashan's eyes, the Great Shield Soldier's movements were pitifully clumsy.
Dashan's figure blurred as he charged, and he instantly slipped around the man! He rushed in front of the enemy leader and thrust the short spear in his hand!
I've got him!
At this critical juncture between life and death, terror and panic mingled across the enemy leader's face, but his hands were still fairly nimble. He yanked open the bundle strapped behind him.
In that instant, a skeleton crawled out from behind him and raised both arms to block the attack, resolving the deadly crisis before him.
But the enemy leader felt no gratitude for the skeleton's life-saving favor. Instead, he flung the skeleton at Dashan, retreated several steps, raised the Bone Spear in his hand, and prepared to stab!
Unexpectedly, Dashan's reaction in that situation was unbelievably swift.
As he swept the skeleton away with one short spear, he flipped the short spear in his other hand and used it as a ranged weapon, hurling it at the enemy leader, who was likewise preparing to attack.
But without a doubt, Dashan was faster.
The distance between the two sides was simply too close, leaving the enemy leader no room to dodge. The short spear flew from Dashan's hand like a whistling arrow and instantly buried itself in the man's shoulder.
Blood sprayed everywhere!
Shock filled the enemy leader's eyes. The violent pain made the Bone Spear fall from his hand, while fear of death surged uncontrollably through his heart, driving him to flee into the distance on both hands and feet.
After that strike, Dashan wanted to pursue after sweeping the skeleton away.
But in the time it took, the enemy's forces had rushed over to support their side and pinned him down.
Dashan was ferocious, but facing four or five enemies at once, escaping in a short time was no easy task.
Meanwhile, the enemy leader, fleeing in blind panic, scrambled up from the ground and ran for a while before immediately turning around to check.
Only after seeing Dashan trapped did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Just as he thought he had successfully escaped danger, a somewhat muffled howl suddenly slipped into his ears.
It definitely was not the sound of a sharp weapon slicing through the air. That kind of sound would have been much sharper.
With no time to think, the enemy leader suddenly felt as if something had caught his foot. His entire body instantly lost its balance, and with a thud, he crashed to the ground.
After giving Fei Que his instructions, Zhou Xu had already gauged the enemy's position and quietly circled around to the outskirts to stand by.
Once the enemy began to flee, Dashan drew the enemy soldiers' attention for him. Seizing his chance, Zhou Xu hurled a tripline low across the ground and brought the man down.
Now that his strike had landed, Zhou Xu immediately rushed over and pressed the Bone Spear against the man's neck.
"You're a transmigrator?"
The enemy leader had been panicked only a moment before. Hearing this, he froze in confusion, then quickly nodded his head vigorously once he understood.
"That's right, that's right! Brother, I'm a transmigrator. You are too? What are the odds?!"
As he spoke, the enemy leader inconspicuously pushed away the Bone Spear pressed against his neck. Then he suddenly performed a Donkey Roll, rolling to the side while drawing the Beast Bone Dagger hidden on his body. He intended to catch Zhou Xu off guard.
"Go to hell, Bai!!!"
Unexpectedly, before he could even finish saying "idiot," the enemy leader's voice abruptly cut off.
With the support of the Eye of Insight, Zhou Xu's dynamic vision was likewise astonishing.
Almost at the same moment the man made those little movements, Zhou Xu sprang after him and thrust out his spear!
Hot blood splashed across his face. His hands gripped the weapon so tightly that his knuckles had already turned white.
He had originally intended to kill the man in one strike, giving him a swift death—and himself a swift end to the ordeal.
Unexpectedly, the other man had dodged at the final moment. The Bone Spear had pierced his neck, but it had failed to take his life outright.
Now, great streams of blood kept pouring out, yet the man was still struggling.
He clutched his bleeding neck with both hands, kicked desperately against the ground in an attempt to break free, and wore an expression and gaze filled with terror and pleading.
All of it kept shaking Zhou Xu's resolve, making his breathing grow ragged.
In this primitive world, half a month of survival had transformed this fine young man, who had never even killed a chicken, into someone capable of twisting a small animal's neck apart with his bare hands without hesitation—even killing that enormous spider monster.
But the person before him was, after all, a living human being. What was more, he was a transmigrator like Zhou Xu. The psychological pressure became immense.
At the same time, Zhou Xu knew perfectly well that the outcome of this battle was undoubtedly tied to him. The final result would determine whether every member of their tribe lived or died! He had no room for mercy!
"Die!!!"
He bolstered his courage with a roar, eyes opened wide. Zhou Xu pressed down again, planted one foot on the man's chest, and yanked the spear from the flesh amid a spray of blood. Then came another dull sound as the spear sank into flesh once more, completely claiming the man's life!
This bonus chapter for the alliance leader is presented with gratitude.
