As the Great Tauren chieftain was already in a very dangerous situation, Fang Ping did not have much time left.
Facing the pursuit of the four dukes, the Tauren chieftain was in a sorry state, and the injuries on his body were quickly increasing.
In at most five minutes, he would completely collapse and welcome death.
Therefore, Fang Ping decided to risk being discovered by the four dukes. He wanted to approach the minotaur chieftain as quickly as possible.
However, of course, Fang Ping would not rush forward in a daze. Instead, he first used the Soul Devouring Spell to interfere with the four Dukes before quietly sneaking to the chieftain's side.
Fang Ping only needed to complete one thing to save the chieftain's life, and that was to deliver his nine-star demon artifact into the other party's hands!
With the powerful defense provided by the nine-star demon artifact and the Absolute Defense skill, it was not especially difficult for the Tauren chieftain to escape unscathed.
"Soul Devouring Spell!"
The four dukes who were chasing after the Tauren chieftain suddenly felt a strange energy envelop their bodies.
Then, they suddenly discovered that they were actually unable to effectively control their bodies, as if their souls and bodies had separated.
If someone weaker than Fang Ping were to withstand the Soul Devouring Spell, their soul would probably have already been pulled out.
However, these four dukes were much stronger than Fang Ping. Moreover, their mentality was also stronger.
The effect of Fang Ping's Soul Devouring Spell was very limited, but it was already enough for Fang Ping's expected goal and was able to interfere with the pursuit of the four Dukes.
The Tauren chieftain was somewhat puzzled by this. They were about to catch up, so why did the four of them suddenly stop?
However, he did not think too much and continued to escape into the distance as quickly as possible.
As long as he could return to the position that the orc army had long prepared, even a duke expert would definitely not dare to take the risk.
Although the duke had the strongest strength in the world, he was definitely not invincible.
Once they fell into the enemy formation and faced the siege of countless enemies, there was also a possibility that the duke experts would exhaust their strength and die.
Just as the Tauren chieftain continued to escape, a spatial energy fluctuation suddenly appeared beside him.
Then, he saw a skeleton arrive in front of him.
The Tauren chieftain instinctively wanted to defend, but he heard Fang Ping's voice.
"Don't be nervous. I'm here to help you. I was the one who helped you interfere with the four of them and bought you time.
"This necklace is a nine-star demon artifact and it has a chance to give you absolute defense. When triggered, even a prince can't break the defense of the necklace.
"Now, I'll give you this necklace for the time being. It should be enough to protect you when you return to the territory of the orcs."
Hearing this, the Tauren chieftain asked in confusion.
"Who are you? Why are you helping me like this?"
"This is a nine-star demon artifact!"
Fang Ping smiled.
"There aren't that many reasons. I just happened to pass by and didn't want to see a leader who was willing to sacrifice himself for his people to die like this.
"I can't delay the four dukes for much longer. If you want to live, don't waste any more time and quickly return to the orc territory.
"I'll see you again then!"
After saying all this, Fang Ping activated his spatial ability again and used spatial teleportation to instantly leave the Tauren chieftain's side.
At this moment, Fang Ping's Soul Devouring Spell was also completely exhausted. The four dukes regained control of their bodies.
They were furious and thought that all of this was a trick of the Tauren chieftain. They became even more irritable and rushed forward to continue chasing after the Tauren chieftain.
They swore to kill him here!
However, the current Tauren chieftain already had the nine-star demon artifact Fang Ping had given him.
Although he could not resist the four Dukes, relying on this demon artifact's powerful defense, he still blocked the enemy's attacks time and time again. Other than consuming too much strength, he was not fatally injured.
Finally, the Tauren chieftain, who had narrowly escaped death, finally retreated into the army's line.
At this moment, the orc army had already returned to their original position. Although they had suffered heavy casualties in this battle, they still retained most of their strength.
Looking at the Tauren chieftain who had returned to the army's protection, the few dukes seemed very regretful and unwilling.
"What's going on? When did he have the ability to resist our attacks?"
"That's right. There's also the effect we felt previously? It didn't feel like the ability of an orc!"
"Forget it, We'll let him live for the time being. We've already achieved our goal this time. Not only have we taken back the lost land from before, but we've also washed away the humiliation of our previous failure."
"Yes, in that case, this war will end here! Our soldiers are also tired!"
Finally, the vampire army began to retreat. The armies of both sides were completely separated. This battle temporarily ended with the complete victory of the vampire army.
At this moment, Fang Ping, who was in the distance, heaved a sigh of relief when he saw both sides stop fighting.
Just now, he had already received a system notification that the investment mission had been completed.
However, there was still one last step to obtain the system reward.
That was to see the Tauren chieftain again. It seemed that this was the only way to determine if the other party had really survived.
Then, the system would distribute the rewards.
Fang Ping was very speechless about this. It was already stated that the mission was completed, but it still required him to do this.
At this moment, the sky had already gradually darkened. Fang Ping had also arrived at the camp of the orc army.
With Fang Ping's strength, he would naturally not be discovered if he wanted to enter the camp.
Soon, he saw the Tauren chieftain healing in the tent in the center of the camp.
As soon as he saw Fang Ping appear, the Tauren chieftain immediately put everything in his hand aside and knelt on one knee in front of Fang Ping.
"Thank you for saving me. If not for your help, I would probably have already died in the hands of those despicable vampires!"
The orc chieftain, Fang Ping, was extremely grateful!
He was the only great chieftain in the entire orc race who was equivalent to a duke. If he died, the orc race would really be finished!
They might even face the danger of being wiped out!
After all, the blood feud between the orcs and the vampires was irreconcilable. The vampires would definitely not let go of this good opportunity to destroy the orcs.
Fang Ping's help today had not only saved his life, but also the entire orc race!
Fang Ping smiled and said.
"It was nothing."
Fang Ping's generosity once again won the respect and gratitude of the Tauren chieftain.
"Us orcs will always remember your help. Moreover, now, you have also obtained the permanent friendship of the orcs!"
