When he heard the gunshots, Wen De and the others were more than 200 meters away from Zhou Ren and others. Although he couldn't see the specific situation there, he still instinctively felt something was wrong.

Not only did the Iron Knight come over alertly after hearing the gunshot. Even Luna and Reading immediately leaned over, and they protected Wende tightly from left to right. Wende turned around and reached out to Liu Xue, who had also lowered his height and hid in the group of knights, and "Sit up!"

Liu Xue nodded and approached on the paper crane. While she moved to the back seat of the orange soda with the help of Wende, her empty left hand kept flying again, blessing her with a series of protective spells, Wende and more demons.

Wende and Liu Xue were exchanging views nervously again.

"That's gunshot?"

“Yes, that’s right.”

"But I didn't see the gunman."

"It should be a sniper rifle, and the enemy should be hiding some dark place."

"But what's the use? With the skills of a substitute, it should not pose a threat to us!"

"It's hard to say..." Liu Xue pondered for a while and continued with some hesitation, "I have heard some rumors before. It seems that there is some way to bypass the substitute and directly kill the summoner..."

"Bypass the substitute skill?" This information made Wende stunned. Before he could ask anything, they had already arrived at the place.

On the battlefield after the fierce battle, the lobster soldiers showed a very strange state, just like clay sculptures and wooden statues, and were completely indifferent to Wende and his arrival.

This scene made Wende feel strange, but he was worried about the previous gunshots and Liu Xue's words and had no time to think about it. He just ordered the demon to be alert on the outside and rode a motorcycle in. He searched for Zhou Ren and the other three in the crowd, but he had found nothing. Later, he discovered Joan of Arc and leaned over there.

Then, he saw...

Two bloody corpses, and Zhou Ren who was sitting on the ground motionless...

"……This is?"

Joan of Arc looked at Zhou Ren's situation there, noticed Wende's arrival and turned around and shook his head slightly, and said apologetically: "Winde, I'm sorry..."

"Is this Niu Dong and Hunter?" Wender asked in disbelief, "What's going on? Where is your golem?"

Zhou Ren did not answer, and still sat on the ground motionlessly, looking ahead without any focus. Joan of Arc, who was still beside him, explained, "They seemed to have been attacked by a very long-distance weapon. Their golem is there. I checked it, and there was no damage at all... Wende and Liu Xue, you should be careful! The enemy may have a way to bypass the substitute and launch a direct attack on you!"

"I realized this." Wende nodded, but pushed away the iron knight who wanted to block in front of him and walked towards the golem that Zhou Ren and the others used as substitutes. Like the lobster soldiers around him, these three clay golems were also stunned. Even if Wende was fumbled up and down on them, they did not respond.

Just as Joan of Arc said, these three statues were not damaged at all. In the fierce battle, Zhou Ren and the others obviously could not make such a low-level and fatal mistake. Maybe Liu Xue really made the point. There is really some way that can make people bypass the substitute skills and directly attack the summoner!

"asshole!"

Wende punched the golem hard, and despite the severe pain in his right fist, he felt that he was filled with fire and had nowhere to vent his heart. Such failure and such a scene of death of his companion made Wende feel angry and sad.

He walked back to Zhou Ren and Liu Xue, who had also checked Zhou Ren's condition, stood up and said to Wen De: "He was not injured, but the blow he suffered was too big... and he could not bear it and subconsciously closed his consciousness..." He also suggested: "The situation here is very bad, we'd better leave here immediately!"

"I understand." Wende responded, but did not agree or deny it, but just looked ahead a little dazedly. It was not until Liu Xue urged him again in confusion that he realized, but said, "Can you wait for the retreat?"

"What?" Liu Xue felt that she didn't hear clearly, "What did you say?"

"I said the time for retreat is not urgent."

"No hurry? What else are there to happen here?" Liu Xue was a little puzzled. It was not until she followed Wende's gaze and saw Thomson and his group fleeing in a hurry, and then she suddenly realized, "You want to chase them? This is not possible! This is too dangerous! Since the other party has the means to bypass the substitute and is using a sniper rifle... You are exposed to them without protective means!"

"So what?! As long as you don't get hit, wouldn't it be better?" Wende said gritting his teeth. Seeing that Liu Xue was still trying to say something, he waved his hand decisively to stop her discovery. "How could I just leave like this! How could I watch that bastard kill my companion and evacuate smoothly? Even if he can't kill him, I have to make him pay enough... No! I will definitely carry the bastard's head back to offer wine!"

Wende turned over and rode on the orange soda without waiting for Liu Xue to answer. He pointed at Reading, and Luna signaled: "You bring the Iron Knight, the Moon Knight stays here, so be sure not to have any accidents!" He turned back to Kainan and said, "Can you call Akali and Shen here? I'll trouble you here!"

Kennan hesitated for a moment, and after seeing the determination in Wender's eyes, he nodded, "Please leave it to me."

"Thank you." Wender gestured to Joan of De, "Let's go! If you slow down, those bastards will really run away!"

Wende's reckless decision made Joan Ar feel a headache, but she knew how stubborn her companion was, and there was no possibility of persuading Wende to dispel the decision. She had to ask, "You must guarantee that you will never leave me!"

Wende responded, "No problem."

Joan of Arc turned over and rode on Emma, ​​and said to Liu Xue with concern, "I'm going to bother you here. You must be careful, that enemy... maybe not yet gone..."

Wende was about to leave with the Gun Knight, but after walking a few steps, he was called down by Liu Xue again.

"What?" he asked in confusion. Liu Xue looked at him quietly for a few seconds before saying, "If you have to go, take your devil with you."

"There is a need for guarding here."

"If you know this, you shouldn't chase it." Wende's face was a little embarrassed, but he didn't mean to change his mind. Liu Xue saw this and shook her head and smiled, "Don't worry, I still have me here."

"you?!"

"Well, if I were just guarding them, I could still do it." With a move of Liu Xue, a demon appeared beside her. There were a lot of people, and they looked quite strange. For a moment, Wende couldn't tell the difference, but he just heard Liu Xue say: "With them, and with my expertise, there will be no problem."

"..." After a few seconds of silence, Wende smiled ugly, "Thank you!"

"If you really want to thank me, please come back safely."

"Please believe me!"
