“But how are we going to lure it over?”

Zhou Xiruo asked in confusion, “Moreover, if the [Volcano Melting Lizard] can defeat the [Ice Corrosion Python], won’t it be a greater threat to us?”

“Well…

Wang Xiao was momentarily speechless because he had not thought it through yet.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Xiao said, “The personality of the

[Volcano Melting Lizard] is much more docile than the [Ice Corrosion Python]. Moreover, as long as the [Volcano Melting Lizard] doesn’t have any hatred towards us, we have a chance of successfully escaping.”

“Therefore, overall, this method is still worth a try.”

With that said, Wang Xiao looked at everyone nervously. He also knew that this reason was not very convincing. Now, he could only rely on these people’s trust in him.

However, to Wang Xiao’s surprise, the first to step forward was actually not Zhou Xiruo, but Liu Wenbo.

“I agree with the plan.”

Liu Wenbo took a step forward and said seriously, “If not for you, we would definitely have died long ago. Moreover, you’re a [beast tamer lord]. You definitely have more experience dealing with mutated beasts than us.”

Wang Xiao thought to himself, What bullsh*t logic is this? However, he was still very happy to see someone supporting him.

Right on the heels of that, Zhou Xiruo and Chen Xue also agreed. Although the other soldiers looked suspicious, they had no better solution at this moment.

After deciding on the plan, Wang Xiao looked at the [Ice Corrosion Python] again and discovered that more than half of its body had already left the swamp. It would only be a few minutes before it completely escaped.

Wang Xiao took a deep breath and began to arrange missions for everyone. “We’ll stall the [Ice Corrosion Python] here. Zhou Xiruo, Teacher Chen! Go find the [Volcano Melting Lizard] immediately…”

“Wait a minute!”

The warrior who had suggested sacrificing Wang Xiao just now suddenly spoke. Now that they had already fallen out, he decided to drop the act entirely. He directly frowned and questioned, “Why are you letting them go? Don’t tell me you want them to take the opportunity to escape?

“Xiao Zhao!”

Liu Wenbo berated. Just as he was about to say something, Wang Xiao waved his hand and interrupted him.

“Whv them?”

Wang Xiao pursed his lips and looked at the warrior with a smile. “Because they’ve seen the [Volcano Melting Lizard]. Moreover, Zhou Xiruo is my vassal lord. Other than me, she’s the only one who can command the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf]. Is there any problem?”

“N-no…”

The warrior was rebuffed and lowered his head, not daring to speak again.

Wang Xiao nodded in satisfaction. Then, he gave Zhou Xiruo a look. The two women immediately jumped onto the back of the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf and quickly left.

“The rest is up to us!”

Wang Xiao turned around and faced the [Ice Corrosion Python] that was about to escape. The huge bodies of the [Lava Raging Bear] and the [Gold Armor Black Turtle] appeared behind him.

Then, Wang Xiao took out the [Blood Qi Connection] skill card. “All fire-type soldiers, attack together! I’ll superimpose defense on you!”

Seeing the [Gold Armor Black Turtle], the few warriors immediately felt confident. They had long heard of the defense of this mutated beast.

If its defense was stacked on their soldiers, even if they could not kill the [Ice Corrosion Python], it would definitely not be a problem to stall for time!

“Our lives depend on this! Reveal all your trump cards!”

Liu Wenbo shouted and everyone immediately summoned their fire attribute soldiers. At the same time, he summoned his strongest soldier—I Fire Goblin Commander]!

The robust Goblin Commander, who was more than three meters tall, was holding a pair of burning battle axes. As soon as it appeared, everyone immediately felt the surrounding temperature begin to rise!

Wang Xiao revealed a surprised expression. “This soldier is at least level one gold! Why didn’t you take it out previously?!”

“It’s level two gold.”

Liu Wenbo corrected him, but the expression on his face was a little awkward. “My [Fire Goblin Commander]’s defense is very low. It would have died if I had taken it out just now… But it’s different now!”

As the [Blood Qi Connection] was torn apart, the [Absolute Defense] of the [Gold Armor Black Turtle] was also shared with everyone’s soldiers.

“Attack together! ”

“Roar!!!”

Ten fire attribute soldiers raised their weapons and rushed towards the [Ice Corrosion Python]. Although there were not many of them, their quality was extremely high!

In an instant, all kinds of fire attacks exploded on the [Ice Corrosion Python]. Although it was not enough to break through its defense, it greatly reduced the speed of the [Ice Corrosion Python] escaping from the swamp!

Somewhere in the ice plain.

A white light quickly flew across the shattered ice plain. Zhou Xiruo and Chen Xue were struggling to raise their heads in the violent wind, but they still tried their best to open their eyes and search around.

Not only was the [Volcanic Melting Lizard] huge, but its back was also burning with a large amount of flames. Logically speaking, they should be able to see it from afar.

However, they had already searched for a long time, but they did not even see a trace of fire.

“The [Volcanic Melting Lizard] has already returned to its nest!”

Chen Xue said in a low voice with a solemn expression. The nest of the [Volcano Melting Lizard] was usually very deep. It was possible for it to be in any bottomless ice crevice.

However, they did not have any clues now. This search was no different from finding a needle in a haystack!

Zhou Xiruo also understood this logic. She thought for a moment and probed, “Why don’t we force it out?”

“No way!”

Chen Xue refused without hesitation. “We don’t even know the approximate location of the [Volcano Melting Lizard]. If we attract other high-level mutated beasts, it will only make the situation more difficult!”

Zhou Xiruo’s expression darkened when she heard this. “Then what should we do? We can’t continue searching like this. Wang Xiao and the others won’t be able to delay for long!”

“Don’t be anxious. I’m still thinking of a way…”

Chen Xue tried her best to speak in a calm tone. Although she was also anxious now, she did not dare to show it. After all, she was the class director. If even she panicked, Zhou Xiruo would only panic even more than her!

“Think of a way! Quickly think of a way!”

Chen Xue gritted her teeth and forced herself to think. Then, she noticed the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf’s twitching nose and suddenly had an idea. “I have an idea!”

Icefield, [Ice Corrosion Python] Battlefield.

A few minutes passed. Even though everyone had already tried their best to stop it, the [Ice Corrosion Python] still successfully escaped from the swamp.

After a few rounds of [Ten Thousand Arrows], although everyone’s soldiers could still barely maintain it, cracks had already begun to appear in the defensive golden light of the [Gold Armor Black Turtle].

This situation was long within Wang Xiao’s expectations. After all, no matter how strong the [Absolute Defense] was, the [Gold Armor Black Turtle] was only at level three gold. Facing the level seven platinum [Ice Corrosion Python], it was already extraordinary for it to last until now.

However, although Wang Xiao was not surprised, it did not mean that he was not anxious.

The defense of the [Gold Armor Black Turtle] was his only reliance at this moment. Once the defense golden light failed, these soldiers would definitely not be able to withstand even a round of [Ten Thousand Arrows]!

“What should we do now…

Wang Xiao, who was in deep thought, subconsciously bit his nail.. When he suddenly saw the [Protection Ring] Zhou Xiruo had given him, a bold thought immediately surged into his mind…
