The great war was about to break out. Country F simply couldn't withstand the attack of the five-nation coalition army.
In the chaos, the very ones who had just provoked the war—Hu Yan and the others, who had been shouting the loudest—quickly took the chance to retreat.
At this moment, who would care about the existence of just the four of them?
Country F instantly collapsed and fell apart. Experts from all nations struck one after another, aiming straight at Country F's national flag.
Just then, a white figure shot out from the island nation's army, rushing straight toward Country F's flag.
Hu Yan and the others had already withdrawn from the battlefield. Looking back, they saw Jiang Kai breaking through into the very center of Country F's army with other experts, fighting for the flag.
According to the plan, the four of them had to retreat immediately now, which meant leaving Jiang Kai alone.
Among these tens of thousands, only one was from Huaxia. How could Hu Yan and the others feel at ease?
"Don't look! Believe in Captain Kai!" Ouyang Yi grabbed Hu Yan. "If we don't run now, and Jiang Kai succeeds, we'll only drag him down!"
Hu Yan bit his lip and nodded. "I know… let's go!"
Before leaving, Hu Yan looked once more toward Jiang Kai's direction. "Captain Kai, be careful!"
Jiang Kai had already killed several people in a row, but by now he no longer even knew which country the people he killed belonged to.
"Those who block me, die!" Jiang Kai shouted in a low voice, hurling out dozens of Chasing Deaths.
There was no time for Chasing Deaths to kill anymore. Jiang Kai immediately activated the Bright God Order. "Ricochet!"
At the same time, from several other directions, groups of experts were also cutting bloody paths toward Country F's flag.
"It's Jiang Kai! That man is Jiang Kai—that's his Chasing Deaths!" On Country F's side, someone actually recognized him. "Our Country F has ended up like this all because of you. Kill him!"
The moment Country F's soldiers heard Jiang Kai's name, they even abandoned defending the flag, charging at him in madness.
The flag was already beyond saving. At this moment, their hatred for Jiang Kai had reached the bone.
Jiang Kai gave a cold snort. "The moment you thought to move against Huaxia, you should have foreseen today's end."
Seeing himself falling behind the experts of other nations, Jiang Kai clenched his teeth and no longer hid his strength.
"Leap of War!"
Jiang Kai leapt high, landing directly in the middle of the crowd, blasting hundreds flying.
"Those who block me, die! Divine Might Aura, Flame-Forged Chasing Death!"
A ring of fire flared around Jiang Kai. More than twenty Chasing Deaths spun rapidly around the outer edge, while in his hands he gripped both the Yama Order and the Bright God Order.
"Wrath of the Lord God, Ricochet!"
Among the five nations' experts, the island nation's two sword masters and a ninjutsu grandmaster had extremely agile movements, while M Nation's abnormal being had extremely strong attack power. Together with Jiang Kai, they closed in on the flag.
The instant Jiang Kai struck, the sword masters thrust dozens of times toward him.
"Chaos Shadow Sword!"
At the same time, the M Nation abnormal being pounded the ground hard. "Fist of Vengeance!" The ground trembled under their feet, making them stagger.
Just as the M Nation abnormal being was about to seize the flagpole, the pole was suddenly snatched, darting more than ten meters away!
When it came to deceiving enemies, Jiang Kai was an expert.
The island nation sword master's strike just now had only hit his substitute.
But now, holding the battle flag, he had instantly become the target of all.
"Don't let him run!"
"Quick, seize the flag!"
"Catch him!"
Clutching the flag, Jiang Kai growled low. "Leap of War!" and vaulted more than a hundred meters away.
Everyone near him was blasted back. Jiang Kai used Leap of War again, fleeing from the battlefield's center.
Landing, he looked up to see a dense black mass of people surging toward him!
It felt as if the whole world was pressing down on him.
"Damn it, too many people!" Jiang Kai realized that escaping under such circumstances was extremely difficult.
His three uses of Leap of War were all spent. Jiang Kai had no more long-distance movement skills, and could only carve a bloody path.
Without hesitation, he rushed toward Country E's direction, hoping to break through from there.
Countless ninja shuriken rained from all sides. Jiang Kai relied on his high agility, darting quickly.
A burly man ahead slashed down fiercely with a broadsword. Jiang Kai had already thrown out his Chasing Deaths, so he had to block with the Purple Lightning Phantom Sword.
The instant their weapons clashed, the man narrowed his eyes. "You're Huaxia's Jiang Kai?"
"So what if I am?"
The man shifted his step, exchanging positions with Jiang Kai, then shoved him away with all his strength. "Hurry and go!"
Jiang Kai froze for a moment—this guy was actually helping him?
But now wasn't the time to talk. Jiang Kai gave him a nod and bolted away.
While fleeing, he noticed that quite a few Country E players seemed to be deliberately blocking the pursuers for him.
Though between nations there were only eternal interests, never eternal friends, Country E's actions still moved Jiang Kai.
It was said that during the defense against the Beast God, Huaxia and Country E had cooperated many times. Perhaps that was why they were willing to help now.
With Country E's help, Jiang Kai sprinted.
With no obstacles ahead, at his speed, few could keep up.
Very soon, he escaped into the mountains.
"I'm out!" Jiang Kai glanced back and sneered. "Bye-bye, suckers!"
The pursuers reached the mountains, but his trail was already gone.
Peter roared, "Damn it, Jiang Kai, just you wait! Huaxia, I will destroy you!"
Behind him came Peter's roar, but Jiang Kai ignored it. Soon he caught up with Hu Yan and the others, and the five quickly withdrew, returning to Huaxia's territory.
"Captain Kai, you're back! Did you get it?" Hu Yan asked excitedly.
Jiang Kai smiled faintly. "When has your captain ever failed? Look—what's this?"
He pulled out Country F's flag, waving it before them. "Pity there was no chance to snatch the regional flag."
Zhao Tiequan's eyes widened. "Brother, in that kind of situation, getting the national flag was already a miracle. And you still think of the regional flag… Two million reinforcements—this time Huaxia's crisis is completely solved!"
Jiang Kai snorted coldly. "Not just solved. Next—it's our time to counterattack!"
......…
In Huaxia's central zone, the million-strong army was still resting. After nearly two days of recovery, everyone's condition had greatly improved.
But Xuanyuan Zhen and the others were restless.
Once Jiang Kai left, they lost the National Soul state again. It was easy to imagine how disastrous things would be for Huaxia if Jiang Kai met with misfortune.
"I don't know if sending him was the right decision. Thinking back, it was just too dangerous." Xuanyuan Zhen sighed.
Zhang Xuan consoled him. "Even Lord Luo and the others agreed with your decision. If we didn't take the gamble now, we might never have another chance."
"It's been more than a day. They're still not back."
"A trip like that takes more than ten hours. Don't worry," Wang Xusheng said. "All we can do now is trust Jiang Kai."
Just then, someone suddenly shouted from the camp.
"The National Soul state is back! Did yours return too?"
"Ours is back too…"
Hearing this, everyone stood up instinctively, looking north.
Four Seasons Flower stood anxiously on a small mound, gazing north.
"He's back?"
"Don't know if he managed to grab Country F's flag. That's too hard."
"If he really did, I'll never hate him again!"
As they spoke, someone spotted something swaying on the horizon. Soon, it became clearer.
It was a flag!
And then, five figures appeared at the horizon.
The one in the middle held the great flag, waving it. As his face grew clear, the entire Huaxia army erupted in earth-shaking cheers.
"It's Kai!"
"Huaxia's Jiang Kai, Huaxia's Fire God—they did it!"
