These raiders dared not attack Hope Guild’s fortified checkpoint head–on. Still, they had no hesitation killing lone survivors right in front of Riley.
They knew Riley’s priority was guarding the entrance.
As long as she stayed behind the defenses, they could keep ambushing and looting out in the open, scaring all incoming survivors away for good.
They failed to notice Riley’s face had turned cold.
RedBean’s face dropped. “President!”
She turned to warn Riley, only to watch her bite into a speed–boost dessert made by TartKing.
The sweet treat melted in her mouth, and a wave of warmth spread through her limbs.
She downed a potion right after, tossing the empty bottle carelessly to the ground.
Hanna saw her movements and instantly raised her crossbow. “Flank cover!”
LoneWolf had looked relaxed just a moment before. In the next blink, he vanished into the shadows.
The 80 enemy raiders were still caught off guard.
They’d expected Riley to yell, to negotiate, to fire the ballistas, or hide behind the barriers and hold her position.
None of them anticipated her charging out alone.
Riley pushed hard off the ground.
She activated Charge.
She shot forward from behind the barriers so fast the frontline enemies barely had time to lift their weapons.
“She’s lost her mind?”
The beast–hide man’s eyes widened in shock.
The tall, thin man beside him shouted at once, “Stop her! Don’t let her get close!”
Dozens of crossbow bolts flew straight toward Riley.
At the exact same time, Hanna fired her crossbow, knocking the two deadliest frontal bolts off course. LoneWolf darted in from the side, cutting into the enemy’s left flank and forcing their backup shooters to scramble back.
Two stray bolts grazed Riley’s shoulders, and one buried itself in her side.
A normal survivor would’ve stumbled and lost their combat rhythm from such wounds.
Riley only faltered for a split second.

The Vitality Siphon effect of her Polar Cold–Resistant Yellow Windbreaker triggered immediately. Heat spread across her injuries, dulling the sharp pain. She did not pull the bolt out. Instead, she used her charging momentum to crash straight into the enemy
formation.
The first enemy raised a shield to block her path.
Riley smashed one axe downward.
The shield caved in, bending the defender’s arm along with
She drew her second axe and swept horizontally, knocking aside a
long blade aimed at her chest. Then she stepped straight toward the small leader who’d just killed the innocent survivor.
The sneer still hadn’t faded from the man’s face.
He’d never imagined Riley would charge through a force of eighty just to kill him.
“Save me!”
He stumbled backward in panic.
Two of his underlings rushed forward, attacking her from both sides.
Riley did not dodge.
She took a blade strike to her left side without flinching, driving her axe deep into the right–side attacker’s shoulder. She then kneed the other man hard in the stomach, sending him reeling. Vitality Siphon activated again, replenishing a large portion of the health she’d just lost.
Her fighting style was brutal–nothing like a normal player’s.
The raiders grew increasingly horrified as the fight dragged on.
They could see fresh wounds covering her body. They could clearly see their blades and bolts landing true. Yet she never fell back, never slowed down, and never stumbled.
The small leader finally broke into a full panic.
He spun around and tried to flee deeper into his own crowd.
Riley hurled one of her axes.
The spinning blade sliced through the crowd, grazed a survivor’s ear, and slammed hard into the small leader’s back.
He crashed face–first onto the ground.
Before he could push himself up, Riley was already standing over him.
The man stared up in terror. “Wait-”
The axe blade fell.
His voice cut off completely.
All the surrounding enemies stepped back in unison.

Riley bent down to retrieve her bloodied axe and snatched the dead man’s loot orb in one quick motion. She then spun and darted back toward her own lines.
Strike hard, establish dominance, and withdraw safely.
