Giant Lion (Third Update)

"This guy... is decisive."

The value of the return item goes without saying; for an awakened being, it's practically an extra life. Bicha handed over the return item so decisively, Bai Xiaowen couldn't do anything about it.

However, Bai Xiaowen didn't expect his opponent to be foolish enough to hide the return item and get killed... Being able to expel him from the Spirit Realm Plane was already a good result, and it wouldn't affect Bai Xiaowen's subsequent plans.

While Bai Xiaowen and Bicha were locked in combat, Li Shuyi, under the Butcher's cover, had already approached Zhalun again.

Zhalun had already used his ultimate Chain Lightning, and his other skills, such as Psychic Pierce and Mind Cage, were on cooldown. He could only quickly reposition himself while simultaneously pulling out a small hand crossbow to shoot at Li Shuyi.

But the crossbow bolts that were fired were all blocked by the Butcher's massive body, and they couldn't hit Li Shuyi at all.

As for Zhalun's Scorpion Swarm, it doesn't bother the Butcher at all. Although the Rot skill consumes Life Value, each dead scorpion restores 1 health point to the Butcher!

Every second, dozens, even hundreds, of scorpions die under the Butcher's rotting poison gas, so the Butcher's Life Value not only don't decrease but actually increase, shamelessly remaining at full even under Zhalun's attacks...

Seeing this, there was no need for Zhalun to use his final skill, Explosive Gu. Explosive Gu won't kill the Butcher unless under specific, enclosed conditions. Even if it severely damages the Butcher, the opponent will quickly recover their Life Value amidst the swarm of scorpions...

"Damn it, how can there be a summoned creature that's so effective against me?"

Zhalun looked at Bai Xiaowen with some discouragement, but was horrified to see Bai Xiaowen brutally beating Bicha, who frantically fled and finally used the return item.

"Perhaps I was too careless..."

Zhalun gritted his teeth, pulled out a return item, and chose to force his return. The moment he disappeared, the two Slime Monster summoned with the item also vanished, and Kitz and the Shadow Assassin regained their freedom.

With two teammates escaping in quick succession, the last remaining strength-type Awakened, Basong, turned grim. He slammed into the Rageclaw, attempting to make his way out, but how fast could a strength-type Awakened possibly be?

With a leap, Rageclaw blocked Basong's path once more, but in that brief moment, the Skeleton Champion charged forward again...

Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi, along with the Butcher, Kitz, Shadow Assassin, and Bone Warlock, all moved closer to Basong.

"Stop... can't I walk by myself?" Basong called out.

Basong's meaning was clear: he was reluctant to part with a return item and hoped to leave the battle state and return to the Spirit Realm on his own.

Bai Xiaowen glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "Okay." A notarized agreement from the Spirit Realm was sent over.

"Thanks..."

Basong signed the agreement with a wry smile and Sprint toward the edge of the battlefield—the agreement stipulated that he must return within five minutes, Basong had to quickly leave the battlefield, leave combat mode, and return to Earth.

Without Bai Xiaowen's obstruction, and amidst the chaos of the battlefield, no Egypt soldier took the initiative to stop Basong. He quickly disengaged from the battlefield, and his figure gradually faded and disappeared.

Bai Xiaowen's casual release of Basong was also a helpless move. According to the information Insight, this guy had a powerful move called "Rage," which could instantly remove all control effects and grant a damage bonus equal to the percentage of Life Value lost, but he hadn't used it yet.

Forcing Basong to stay would only result in another return item being generated, offering no additional benefit to Bai Xiaowen, and would certainly come at the cost of one or two Elite Tier summoned creatures.

For Bai Xiaowen, time is the most precious thing right now! The Amun Legion is attacked from both sides, and the main force of the Hittites Hattusa Legion has been successively sent to the battlefield. He no longer has the luxury of dealing with Basong.

To save time, Bai Xiaowen could have extracted some Psionic Points from Basong, but he didn't.

Because when Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi were fighting against the Zhalun trio, Pharaoh Ramses ' Elite Tier guards had already lost less than ten men.

Samp, the Egypt general who led his troops in a charge to kill the enemy commander Holimu, was also covered in Bloodbath and trapped in the Hittites battle formation, unable to break through no matter how he tried.

"What was the origin of those assassins?" The Pharaoh stood on his wrecked Golden Chariot, the Divine Runes runes surrounding him now dim and lifeless.

"They are... members of a secret organization, and your target this time is you," Bai Xiaowen hesitated for a moment. Of course, he wouldn't reveal that the three were Awakened, but instead, he would first throw mud at them. "That organization is called the Silent Tongue! My companion and I were sent to protect you after learning about this from the Memphis Temple."

"The Silent Tongue ..." Ramses shook his head. "I've never heard of that organization. But now is not the time to talk about assassins, Dio. I need you to charge into battle for me and kill the Hittites commander!"

Bai Xiaowen looked around. "But, Great Pharaoh, there is still danger around you. The Hattusa Legion of the Hittites is being continuously deployed to the battlefield. If I charge into the enemy lines like Samp, who will protect you?"

Ramses waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I am the earthly Incarnation of Amun-Ra! The lion pride obeys my commands and will protect me!"

Several Egypt lion handlers opened the cage, and four Giant Lion, who had been lying lazily, shook their manes and leaped nimbly from the carriage.

Several Hittites soldiers charged forward in formation—the Pharaoh's Golden Chariot was so dazzling, as bright and outstanding as fireflies in the night.

As a result, the four Giant Lion pounced and tore the Hittites soldiers to Bite in just a few bites, a bloody and terrifying scene.

Ramses said, "These Giant Lion were raised by me and will obey my commands. However, once they leave my range, they will become uncontrollable, so they cannot charge into Breakthrough Charge to kill enemy generals for me, nor can they replace loyal warriors."

"Now, take that guy's head off! I'm going to make drinking vessels from his skull!" Ramses stood on his Golden Chariot, pointing at Holimu in the distance, and shouted fiercely.

Bai Xiaowen breathed a sigh of relief. He bowed and said loudly, "Your wish is my command!"

Bai Xiaowen led his summoned creatures, along with Li Shuyi, and charged towards the Hittites defenses in the south.

Samp and his men were surrounded by a group of Elite Tier Hittites officers. Bai Xiaowen had no interest in the chaotic battle. He made a slight detour and charged into the Hittites defenses through a weak point, like a sharp knife, unstoppable and invincible!
