After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply

Just then, Lin Da's ears rang with the system notification:

[Witch Lulu Trust Level +1, Current Trust Level: 89]

The stagnantly halted 88 points of trust silently increased by one.

Lin Da scratched his head, and even after a long time, he couldn't figure out how that one point of trust was added.

"The battle at Snow Goose's end is still ongoing. We can't delay any longer; we need to provide support quickly."

After fully restoring Lulu's health and tying a bow with a bandage on the wound on her knee, Lin Da stood up and surveyed the battlefield with a stern gaze.

Firstly, there was Klrona's side.

Klrona and Oru, together, held back four members of the Giant Hammer Adventure Team apart from the captain and vice-captain.

Along with Klyne and Phyllis, their 4V4 battle was evenly matched. Klrona fought with enthusiasm, jumping around as if it were a game.

Being defensively specialized, Klrona has grown up never being severely beaten; no one could make her feel pain. Oru, on the other hand, was having a harder time, his legs trembling, grinning and bearing it through clenched teeth.

The members of the Giant Hammer Adventure Team identified Oru as the weak point, and under the leadership of a Mohican-haired Heavy Swordsman, they focused their attacks on Oru.

Phyllis's healing wasn't very high, and when the opposition concentrated their fire on Oru, she was immediately stretched thin and began to falter. At Phyllis's feet, a large pile of blue Magic Potions were scattered, her face turning purple.

"Group Healing!"

Lin Da pointed forward with the Sword of Royalty, and a green Recovery Array appeared over the heads of Oru and Klrona.

+1700

+1720

"Primary Healing Spell!"

A second wave of healing was sent to Oru.

+2550!

That still wasn't all for Lin Da; a Verdant Shield with a thickness of 5760 was fitted securely around Klrona and Oru.

Klrona was a defensively specialized frontline fighter, naturally low in health but extremely high in defense, making the addition of a shield greatly cost-effective for regaining health.

A single Verdant Shield was akin to having an extra 'life.'

With Lin Da's maneuvers, both fighters were instantly brought back to their peak condition.

"Awesome." Klrona felt the surge of power reentering her life screen and couldn't help but brighten up at the warm touch of the Verdant Shield.

The amount of healing Phyllis could do was like a small toothpick, barely making a scratch, while in contrast, Lin Da's effect was like a rolling pin, immediately effective.

"┗|｀O′|┛ Wow~~, the power is surging out!"

Oru's face flushed with effort as he pounded his chest, his hands gripping the giant hammer, instantly knocking the charging Mohican-haired Heavy Swordsman off his feet.

"Partner, thanks! Don't worry about us here; go help Lia first!"

Without looking back, Oru gestured 'no problem' and together with the petite Klrona, they formed a solid barrier, firmly blocking the other members of the Giant Hammer Adventure Team.

After a moment of contemplation, Lin Da called out to Monica, who was timidly hiding and not daring to show her face beside Klyne: "Stay close to Klyne, don't run around!"

"Yeah." Monica nodded repeatedly, hiding behind Klyne. This green-haired Elf Miss, naturally personable, also took good care of Monica and was among the few members of Snow Goose whom Monica liked.

"Don't be afraid, even if those bad guys come at you, Big Sister will protect you!"

Klyne fired a Wind Arrow, turning her head to gently smile at Monica.

...

"Brother Bear actually lost to that Level 31 Werewolf?"

This fact intensified Xiu's anger, causing him to roar skywards.

He chased after Lia, elusive as an eel, wielding his Giant Hammer, but that damned redhead dwarf refused to face him in direct combat.

If it were a head-on fight, Xiu was confident he would settle it within three strikes.

As a Level 35 Senior Star Rank adventurer, not only was Xiu's prowess formidable, but his equipment was also rather impressive.

Mostly orange with a fair amount of purple, his deep green Inner Armor woven from vines was of one-star Epic Level.

Had it not been for Xiu's desire to form his own team, several major adventure teams from Red Heart City and White Dove City would have sought him out with offers.

With his strength, even if Lia and Aiko together couldn't put up a fight against him!

But the problem was, Lia was too agile and wouldn't face him head-on, slowly wearing him down while waiting for backup from the Phoenix Tail Flower.

With Lulu joining the battlefield, Xiu's pressure increased slightly.

"Verdant Shield."

Lin Da chanted a spell, and a rich green glow fell on Lia.

"You're finally here."

Lia panted with exertion.

While facing the Level 35 Xiu, she remained highly alert, her small feet wrapped in black stockings within her shoes now thoroughly soaked.

Besides her feet, Lia's back and forehead were also covered in sweat.

With the Verdant Shield, she had an added margin for error, allowing her to relax significantly.

She and Lulu charged towards Xiu, and Aiko cast a [Sacred Hammer] spell, and the three Star Tier fighters launched a joint attack.

"Bring it on!"

Xiu's face twisted into a sneer, showing no signs of retreating as he swung his iron hammer to smash at the two young girls from both sides.

"Flame Slash!"

"Frost Wolf's Bite!"

Red and silver-white Battle Qi bursts erupted, and with two crisp sounds, the Verdant Shield was shattered by Xiu's hammers.

Xiu, true to his reputation as a Dual Hammer Wielder known for his strength, shattered the Verdant Shield, which had a thickness above 5000, on the spot!

Lia and Lulu's Life Barriers also violently shook, and both girls turned pale, being knocked back ten meters.

In contrast, Xiu remained unmoved except for the cracked ground beneath his feet.

The Tigerman bared his teeth in a wild laugh: "Weak, so weak, that's all there is!"

However, the next moment was marked by Aiko's spell, Sacred Hammer.

Now a Star Tier Mage, her originally three-meter-long Light Hammer expanded to five meters.
