The 7th Division retreated safely. Although over 1,000 soldiers had died in the battle, the barbarians could not continue pursuing them after "Old Xu" charged into the enemy's camp. They could only return to encircle Ren Xiaosu and "Old Xu".
Even when the expeditionary army was forced to let go of the 7th Division, they still found it hard to believe that an army of over 7,000 people could be held back by two people.
Of course, the expeditionary army still did not know it was actually a person on the battlefield.
On the way back, P5067 kept looking back at the battlefield until he could no longer see anyone.
His deputy commander sighed and said, "That's probably a sight I'll never forget for the rest of my life. A person can still leisurely pick his ears while facing the main forces of the barbarians. It shows that he's very confident and feels like the expeditionary army is nothing to him. The era of the Rise of the Gods has indeed arrived …."
P5067 also agreed with this statement. This was the first time he had seen a young man picking his ears while facing thousands of troops. Moreover, he felt that this was probably unprecedented.
P5067 also sighed and said, "It's no wonder he's on par with the Demon Whisperer Li Shentan. Besides, he's even more shocking than Li Shentan. After all, this is a head-on battle. Let's hope he can successfully escape after holding back the expeditionary army for half an hour. "
"Someone mentioned that the supernatural realm would also be ranked soon. I'll see what that young man's ranking is when the time comes. If he doesn't make it into the top three, I'll conclude that the ranking is not credible!" the deputy commander said firmly.
Right now, as long as Ren Xiaosu could hold them back for half an hour, the 7th Division and the 1st and 4th Divisions in the south would be able to successfully reach the defensive line 15 kilometers away and join up with P5092 from the 3rd Division.
But unfortunately, the 5th Division would definitely not be able to escape. Without Ren Xiaosu's help, the division commander decided to hold the rear and try to buy time for the other troops.
In other words, if everything went smoothly, the 1st, 4th, 7th, and 3rd Divisions would all be able to return south of the Great Wall.
However, they would still have to race against time because the 6th Division, which had been holding back the expeditionary army's main forces in the north, should have been completely wiped out by now. The northern barbarians would have to start pursuing them south again.
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu was standing among the barbarian troops. He looked very calm, as if he had a card up his sleeve, which made the barbarians ponder.
However, this was probably the bonus effect of Ear Gouging. Even he himself was thinking that if his enemy were to pick their ears while facing him, he would probably also be bewildered, wondering if his opponent still had some trump card …
After all, even Ren Xiaosu himself felt that he was being too arrogant by picking his ears while fighting …
But he had no choice. Ren Xiaosu didn't want this to happen either. But this was a superpower. If he didn't clean his ears, he would probably be dead.
Therefore, both the expeditionary army and the 7th Division had misunderstood him.
As he was pondering this, the barbarians around him kept swinging their axes at him. The barbarians used all their strength to try and hack Ren Xiaosu to death. But when their axes got within 30 centimeters of Ren Xiaosu's body, they encountered an invisible resistance that rebounded all the force of their axes back.
The barbarians were already extremely strong when they swung their axes. At this moment, Ren Xiaosu's Ear Gouging ability rebounded all the force back, causing the axe to fall out of the barbarian's hand and his wrist to be dislocated!
The expeditionary army had always used force to solve problems, but they had never encountered such a strange situation before.
They did not know much about the supernatural beings of the Central Plains to begin with and only had a general idea of what was going on. Now, the barbarians who did not know what was going on only felt that the supernatural being from the Central Plains in front of them was a little too powerful. They wondered how many more supernatural beings there were in the Central Plains who could face off against the main forces of the army alone.
The sniper fire had stopped. This was something Ren Xiaosu had specifically instructed Yang Xiaojin to stop shooting once the 7th Division left because he would be heavily surrounded. If the barbarians' main forces split up a lot of their soldiers to look for the snipers, Yang Xiaojin would be in danger.
Ren Xiaosu looked at the vast number of barbarians around him. If he were to continue killing them one by one, how long would that take?
The heavy machine gun bullets had already been used up, but he had only killed a few hundred barbarians at most. There were still several thousand left to kill.
Although he could keep picking his ears, and "Old Xu" could also kill very quickly, the problem was that the 6th Division in the North should have been wiped out, and the main forces of the expeditionary army would arrive here soon.
At that time, it would no longer be several thousand people surrounding him, but tens of thousands of people surrounding him.
Just thinking about it was terrifying!
Therefore, Ren Xiaosu had to use a more lethal method.
The barbarians who were besieging Ren Xiaosu to no avail suddenly saw the Central Plains man in front of them take out four small pieces of paper out of nowhere. The red and black patterns on the pieces of paper were exceptionally bright.
One of the barbarians suddenly wondered, "Aren't these playing cards? What's that in his hand? Four threes? "
After all, playing cards was a world-class game. Everyone knew what playing cards were.
But a moment later, the barbarians surrounding Ren Xiaosu suddenly saw a Shadow Door open in front of him. They watched as Ren Xiaosu was about to throw the four threes in his hand into an unknown place.
But something unexpected happened. Ren Xiaosu was surprised to find that when he was picking his ears, there seemed to be a layer of transparent energy enveloping him. He could not reach his hand into the Shadow Door at all, as though he was being repelled.
Then the barbarians saw Ren Xiaosu, who was in front of them, suddenly stop picking his ears. Then he reached his hand into the Shadow Door and threw the poker cards out before quickly picking his ears again.
His movements were so swift and smooth that it was as though he had been scalded by the ear-picking spoon.
Right after, Ren Xiaosu repeated this action countless times, throwing bombs into the expeditionary army's crowd.
If "Old Xu" and "City Crusher" were a combination skill, then "Ear Picking", "Shadow Door", and "Explosive Poker" would be his new combination skill.
As the "Explosive Poker" was a trump card to make up for Ren Xiaosu's lack of ranged attacks, Ren Xiaosu would occasionally play with some poker cards when he had nothing to do. He also dreamed of drawing the legendary "Big King and Little King" to form a trump card.
For example, when his gratitude tokens were at 4,086, he would draw the odd part of the 86 whenever he had nothing to do and leave an integer of 4,000.
His gratitude tokens had increased several times when he was with the Trinity Institute, so Ren Xiaosu now had quite a lot of Explosive Poker cards in his hand. However, to Ren Xiaosu's regret, he still did not see any trump cards even after drawing hundreds of poker cards.
Not only did he not see any trump cards, but the highest number in the Explosive Poker cards was only 10. He did not even see any trump cards.
He had used four "7s" in Stronghold 74 before. At that time, the Explosive Poker cards created a small mushroom cloud with a radius of up to 100 meters. All the buildings within a radius of 50 meters of the core explosion zone were razed to the ground. It was a terrifying sight to behold.
This time, Ren Xiaosu threw out the four "3s", four "4s", four "5s", and four "6s" in his hand and blew them all up. For a moment, the expeditionary army was covered in explosions. They did not even know how the bombs got into their midst.
Although these bombs were quite powerful, weapons like grenades could be used to replace the four "7s" that were below them, so they were not particularly important.
The expeditionary army suddenly fell into chaos. They tried to avoid the bombs, but no one knew where they would appear next.
