When the circumstances permitted, a medic would always have another defending them. This was a habit that these men had cultivated over their many years as veteran soldiers, and that had not changed a bit after entering the game. When Xiaochen was called over to perform triage, that Thief had promptly followed to defend him. What he had not expected that, though, was not only would he fail to protect Xiaochen, he would also end up joining him.
The whole bunch of them felt frustrated at this result. Although they knew that this was just a game, and were well aware that those three were back on their feet, alive and breathing, back at the spawn point by now, the loss of their three comrades consecutively incited these veterans' anger.
