Seeing the dragons rising up amidst a burst of dragon roars and moving away from the battlefield, Li Kehe kept covering him to prevent him, a human being, from dying under the dragon's breath. Vereesa also sat on the ground tiredly.
Especially Li Ke, even though the battle lasted not even twenty minutes, he felt as if the time had passed as long as a day. Especially when he saw the people around him being burned to ashes by dragon flames, or having their bodies smashed by flying axes thrown by orcs, or being shot through by trolls hiding in the woods, he became even more worried. I felt the cruelty of the battle.
Moreover, even if they repelled these giant dragons and orcs, the elf rangers who fought alongside them suffered heavy casualties. Originally, there were probably hundreds of elves, but now there are only a few dozen left, of which only A small number were killed by orcs, and most were killed by the breath of those dragons.
Of course, there are also those who rashly use the rocket launcher brought by Li Ke to burn their companions behind them or blow them up to death. There are also cases where teammates are shot dead because they are not used to using firearms.
But in general, they still repelled the first wave of attacks from these orcs and dragons.
"What a cruel battle..."
Li Ke looked at the arms he had brought over. Although the grenades and most of the machine guns taken by the elves were still intact, almost half of the rocket launchers were detonated by the breath of the red dragons, and there were only four boxes of bullets left. , the rest are finished together with the bazooka. If there is another battle like this, I am afraid that in the middle of the battle, I will have to rely on those bows and arrows that are not weak in power, but have a terrifyingly low rate of fire.
"By the way, do you elves have any magic that can deal with these things? For example, a magic tower, plus some war spells or something like that."
"Yes, but because we never expected that a giant dragon would attack, we were destroyed by those dragons along with our mage at the first opportunity. The blade throwing vehicle and bed crossbow were also destroyed."
Vereesa covered her shoulder. There was an arrow shot by an orc on it. This arrow was a very vicious barbed arrow, so she didn't dare to pull it out. She could only wait until the battle was over before looking for it. A healing sound. Although this girl who was still wearing a gauze skirt had a determined look in her eyes, she could not hide the look of panic.
"Then it seems we must withdraw immediately, otherwise if we do it again, we will all die here."
Looking at the only motorcycle left, Li Ke had a headache. Ever since he awakened his ability to time travel, none of the vehicles he has ridden in have ended well. This time, he specially used a spare military vehicle and added numerous armor plates, thinking that it would not be destroyed by cold weapons, but the result was It was burned into a pile of scrap metal by the dragon's breath.
Even he had several injuries on his body. If he hadn't had a body armor and was far enough away to be protected by Vereesa, he would have been shot to pieces by those trolls and orcs.
"You're right……"
Vereesa looked in one direction unwillingly, with a glimmer of hope still in her eyes, hoping that her brother Liras would suddenly run out of the jungle. But unfortunately, she could only see the trolls hiding in the jungle one after another, and the elf ears and heads hung by the trolls around their waists.
The screams of the elves that came from the jungle also completely disappeared, leaving only the sound of fire burning trees, the roar of dragons, and the sound of flapping wings.
"let's go."
She stood up and wanted to leave with Li Ke, but when she stood up, she discovered that there was a deep wound on her left leg. Her gauze skirt had long been dyed bright red by the wound, but She just didn't have time to pay attention to this during the battle. Now that she relaxed, she felt that her legs were a little unruly.
Li Ke, who was also a little exhausted, immediately squatted down after seeing this scene, lifted Vereesa's white gauze skirt, revealing her long white legs that were stained red with blood, and then when the elf girl dodged. He grabbed her long legs, causing the elf girl to almost fall because she lost her balance. She could only hold on to his shoulders and head to barely stand there.
"Human! What are you doing!"
She had never had such an experience. Although their family was already famous for being serious and old-fashioned, even in her family, she was considered an 'honest' and good baby, so this experience of being suddenly attacked, It was really her first time.
"I'll bandage your wound. After all, no one is free to treat you right now. Also, my name is Li Ke. As someone who fights side by side, it's too sad that I don't even know my name."
Li Ke took out alcohol and a hemostatic bandage from the pocket on his waist, and poured the alcohol on Vereesa's wound directly. The pain also made Vereesa grab his hair hard, so when Li Ke wrapped the hemostatic gauze around her smooth thighs, she had two more short hairs in her hands.
"Feel sorry……"
Vereesa looked at Li Ke with embarrassment. She really wanted to cry now. Whether it was Li Ke's rough treatment, the pain of losing a loved one, or the pain on her leg, this elf girl couldn't help but cry. I really want to cry. Li Ke looked at the girl who had been holding back from crying, and silently patted her shoulder.
"It's okay...you've done enough."
But this time Vereesa didn't speak. She just lowered her head in silence. Li Ke casually wiped the blood on his body, looked at the completely burning forest, and helped Vereesa, whose left leg was injured, to the surviving elves. Although the elves were still intact, most of them had scars such as burns, and like Vereesa, they all had expressions of sadness and pain on their faces.
Especially after Vereesa announced that they could not sort out the bodies of their comrades and would leave here immediately, their expressions became even more painful. But they finally obeyed the order, took away the weapons from these elves as much as possible, and rushed towards the team that left before.
Vereesa couldn't walk because of her thigh injury, so she sat on Li Ke's motorcycle, while the other elves used the remaining chocobos and vehicles as much as possible to rescue the elves who were still barely alive. take away. For this reason, the atmosphere in the entire team was quite depressing, and from time to time the sound of some elves crying could be heard.
Li Ke, who was driving at the front, was observing the surroundings attentively to avoid anything sneaking up on them. But just when he was a little far away from the survivors because of the speed of his motorcycle, he suddenly felt Wen Lei pull him from behind.
"Human... no, Mr. Li Ke."
"Um?"
"Can I take your back and use it?"
"……Can."
So a pair of soft, snow-white arms hugged Li Ke's chest, and a very low sob sounded from behind him.
