System Notification: You have reached Level 30. You are unable to obtain EXP. Please head to your Class Mentor to obtain a Class Change Quest. You will be able to level up after completing the quest.
"Huh?" After dying over 20 times, Li Huailin finally reached Level 30 as he wished. However, as soon as he reached Level 30, a notification popped up in front of him. Although Li Huailin was puzzled, he discovered that he still had EXP. His current EXP was 10300/345000, not 0/345000.
"It's probably because I can't obtain EXP, but I can still get EXP at Level 30 …" Li Huailin nodded. If that was the case, he would only obtain EXP if he died. He wouldn't be able to obtain EXP like before when he completed an announcement. However, he wouldn't be able to obtain EXP from completing a quest because he couldn't obtain EXP in the first place.
"I can finally go back." Regardless of whether he could obtain EXP or not, Li Huailin had finally reached Level 30. Moreover, it had only taken him three hours to do so. Everything went so smoothly that Li Huailin couldn't believe it. It had been a long time since his progress had been this smooth.
Although he was late by a day, Li Huailin was very happy to be able to return to the main city today. He thought that he should bid farewell to Anthony, but he was afraid that Phyllis would pester him.
"Third Elder, bad news!" Just as he was thinking, another Bandit ran in.
"Why is it always this sentence? Can't we change the line?" Li Huailin facepalmed. "Alright, alright. What's the matter now?"
"The Empire's pursuers have arrived!" the Bandit hurriedly said.
"So fast?" Li Huailin was a little surprised. In theory, it would take two days to reach the main city by horse carriage. They had just finished the defensive battle yesterday afternoon and killed Balian. Even if the Crusade Army received the news immediately, the reinforcements should have arrived tomorrow. Why were they here today?
"The Great Elder wants you to go over immediately," the Bandit hurriedly said.
"Okay." Li Huailin nodded. He wanted to go back immediately, but it seemed that he had to delay it for a while. Anyway, he had to say goodbye to Anthony, so he decided to go back now.
However, it seemed like the enemy's pursuers had yet to reach the camp's entrance. Li Huailin found Anthony in the camp's bar. Vanessa and Phyllis were there, too.
"Leader, how is it?" Li Huailin asked.
"According to the investigation report, there's a team in the south. They have a lot of people, and they're heading towards our camp," Anthony said anxiously.
"How many people are there?" Li Huailin asked.
"Very, very many. According to reports, there are more than 3,000 people," Anthony said with a frown.
“3000？” What a shock. Last time, 500 people had caused such a huge ruckus that they were almost wiped out. Now, 3000 people …
"They think too highly of us …" Li Huailin said with a bitter smile. Just as Li Huailin expected, only three people chose to leave the camp yesterday. Now, the total number of people was 56. However, 56 against 3000 …
"Yeah …" Anthony said in despair. "No matter what, 3000 people … As long as they send 200 people, we probably won't be able to stop them …"
"What do you plan to do?" Li Huailin asked.
"Originally, I wanted to try fighting no matter what, but it seems like I don't even have the chance to fight anymore. Vanessa, organize everyone to leave. Go anywhere. I'll stay here to stop them. We'll buy as much time as we can," Anthony said after some thought.
"Leader, don't say anymore. You've already asked everyone this question yesterday. Those who wanted to leave left yesterday. Now, those who are left are willing to die with you, including me. You don't have to chase us away," Vanessa said with a smile. Since things had already come to this, there was nothing to be worried about.
"Is that so …" Anthony sighed.
"Yeah …" Vanessa nodded.
"I'll follow Huailin," Phyllis said.
"Boss, the enemy's vanguard has reached the valley entrance of our camp," a bandit rushed in and reported.
"How many people?" Anthony asked.
"The vanguard should be 500 people, but it's strange …" the bandit said.
"What's wrong?" Anthony asked. "What's strange?"
"The enemy stopped when they reached the valley entrance. Then, about ten people came in, and the others stayed outside," the bandit said. "But these people don't look like ordinary soldiers. Their armor is very cool."
"The enemy's general came in alone?" Anthony was shocked. "Is it to give us a chance? Huailin, why don't we try again? "
"There's more than one general in an army of 3000 people. Even if we kill one, they won't collapse. But let's go take a look first," Li Huailin said.
"Yeah." Anthony nodded, and the few of them immediately came to the entrance of the camp. As soon as they arrived, they saw the dozen people mentioned by the reconnaissance team. To be exact, there were twelve of them. They were indeed generals. Their armor was so gorgeous that it was hard to look at them directly. Moreover, each of their armor was not the standard armor. It was probably custom-made. Someone who had this kind of authority should be a general who led an army alone.
The leader of the group looked a little old. He looked to be in his sixties, and his beard was a little white. However, he looked energetic. He wore a clean set of red and yellow armor with a flame pattern on it. Li Huailin noticed his name: Wilham von Merkaz.
These dozen people did not look like they were here to fight. They looked very relaxed, and there was no murderous intent at all. This made Anthony even more worried. The enemy seemed very confident that they could take him down, so they were not anxious at all.
Looking at his own side, they had just gone through a huge battle yesterday, and the wooden walls had not been repaired yet. Now, he could run in without climbing. On the other hand, the bandits here were mostly old, weak, women, and children, and their injuries had not healed yet. This was really …
The twelve people on the other side should all be generals. If I can kill them … there's still a chance of survival … The people on the other side were obviously not easy to deal with, but that was all Anthony could do to comfort himself.
With that thought in mind, Anthony pulled Li Huailin, who was next to him. "Huailin, the one in front is probably their leader. You and I will charge out and kill him first."
"No problem." Li Huailin was the least afraid of death, so he immediately agreed.
"The success rate of a sneak attack is higher. You and I will ambush behind the wooden door. We'll go up and kill them directly!" Anthony suggested again. There was no time to consider whether a sneak attack was despicable or not.
"Okay." Li Huailin nodded.
"Me too," Vanessa said.
"Me too," Phyllis said, seeing that Li Huailin was also participating.
"You two enough. Vanessa, you can't even beat a snow monster, and you still want to sneak attack …" Li Huailin said. "You two stand here to attract their attention. We'll take the opportunity to sneak an attack."
"Oh, that's true." Vanessa nodded. If there was someone in front to attract attention, it would help with the sneak attack.
"Okay." Phyllis nodded too.
Just like that, the wooden door opened. Li Huailin and Anthony each hid behind the opened wooden door, while Vanessa and Phyllis led the rest of the bandits who could attack to stand in the middle to attract the enemy's attention.
Soon, more than a dozen people walked towards the entrance. Moreover, the other party didn't seem to be too vigilant. They didn't even notice any traps and swaggered in through the main entrance. Soon, the two sides were face to face.
"Chief of Staff, it's a woman, and an elf." Beside the veteran general Wilham was a younger general in his thirties. He was a little chubby, and his name was Karrus Moffett. Vanessa, who was obviously the leader, whispered into Wilham's ear.
"Girl, where's your leader?" Wilham asked after looking at Vanessa. His voice sounded very dignified and righteous. If he wasn't a general, it would be a good idea to become a priest and recite the Bible.
"Leader!" Vanessa immediately shouted into the camp. Anthony was actually behind the wooden door behind Wilham, and Vanessa was attracting his attention.
As expected, Anthony looked in the direction Vanessa was shouting at. Anthony was hiding behind the wooden door, holding his breath in concentration. Seeing this opportunity, he immediately unleashed all of his combat aura, swung his sword, and charged at Wilham who was at the front.
"Hmm?!" To his surprise, Wilham reacted immediately. The moment Anthony appeared, Wilham had already locked his eyes on him.
"Good, perfect fire combat energy, but still a little immature!" Wilham exclaimed. He immediately pulled out the sword at his waist, turned around, and slashed at Anthony. The speed of his sword was much faster than Anthony's sneak attack.
Clang! The two actually tied. The two swords intertwined, but no one took a step back. Wilham's speed was good, but his strength was not as good as Anthony's. He had attacked with his horse, but Anthony had blocked it.
"Not good!" But Anthony was sneak attacking. If he missed, he would be in trouble.
"Watch my second strike!" Suddenly, Li Huailin appeared behind Wilham. Li Huailin's speed was not fast. He came out at the same time as Anthony, but he only arrived after Anthony had finished fighting. No one noticed him at all, because everyone saw Li Huailin as an ally.
Seeing that Wilham was fighting with Anthony, Li Huailin raised his hand and slashed at him.
Li Huailin had already used Heroic Strike for this attack, but the numbers that appeared were simply unbelievable. Li Huailin couldn't believe his eyes.
"F * ck! This guy's level is so high? "Li Huailin shouted.

System Notification: Because you attacked Wilham von Merkaz, Bartonia Legion's Favorability towards you increased by 30 points. Current Favorability: Friendly.
Bartonia Legion? Wait, I remember this is … Looking at the system notification, Li Huailin suddenly thought of something. He shouted at Anthony, "Wait, Commander, it might be one of us."
