Chapter 52 Bloody War

Lina lunged forward, wrapping herself around the Son of the Forest, her arms holding him firmly. Then a magical light flashed, and Lina and the Children of the Forest appeared in the sky above, right in front of the red dragon Carlo.

"Caro, Dragon's Breath!" Lina shouted.

But hesitation flashed in the eyes of the red dragon Carlo, the huge mouth opened, and the scorching dragon breath lingered in the throat, but did not spew out. This dragon's breath will cover the dragon mage and the children of the forest together. The Red Dragon Carlo and the Dragon Mage Lina have a partnership contract, so the Dragon Mage can summon it without being a legendary. The relationship between a dragon and a man is actually a friend, not a contract creature and a summoner.

"Caro!!" Lina's voice was close to hysterics.

The Son of the Forest struggled frantically, striking her fragile body incessantly, even biting down on Lina's arm, tearing off a piece of flesh!

Caro let out an earth-shattering dragon roar, and then a thick dragon breath erupted, enveloping Lina and the Children of the Forest!

Time seems to have frozen.

I don't know how long it took for two figures to fall in the air and fall into the forest. The dragon mage was already silent, and the son of the forest actually jumped up again, he grabbed an elf druid, and actually stabbed his hand into the heart of the druid, and instantly extracted all the life force and natural mana of the druid, and his face became ruddy. He turned back, glanced viciously at his opponents, and prepared to flee towards the forest.

At this moment, a faint voice sounded: "Do you think you can still escape?"

It's Richard.

He was still damn calm, and his voice was damn indifferent. But he was actually unsteady on his feet, and he didn't know how many wounds there were on his body, and even his battle robe had become ragged. Blood poured out from everywhere and piled up in a thick puddle under his feet, and Richard could only stand with a nameless long knife.

The Children of the Forest suddenly felt that the light of Richard's elven knife was a little dazzling.

In the next moment, all the natural forces and life essence in the Son of the Forest's body boiled, completely out of his control, and then centered on a certain point in his body, frantically converging in the past.

The Children of the Forest suddenly thought of a terrifying legend about the invaders in the clan, and burst out with a terrifying scream: "Elemental Extraction?!"

"You just knew?" said Richard, sneering, reaching out and flicking the blade of the nameless long knife.

The Son of the Forest screamed in a terrible manner, rolling desperately on the ground, and his body could be seen rapidly shrinking and shriveling, and in an instant he was turned into a dried corpse.

The Son of the Forest used his last strength, turned over, and never moved again. A crimson blood crystal rolled out of his mouth, rolling far away on the grass before he reluctantly stopped.

Richard finally breathed a sigh of relief, could no longer support it, and fell to the sky.

A terrible roar continued in the forest, and the surviving elves and druids lost their fighting spirit and retreated into the depths of the jungle. The number of retreats is only a quarter of the ambushers.

Richard was facing the sky on his back, and his vision was full of pale green sky.

He only felt that his body had become very light now, and his consciousness and thoughts were drifting, as if he had been separated from his body. The wind in the forest was a little cold, and he wanted to wrap himself tight, but he couldn't find anything to cover himself. Li sensed that his body was empty, as if something had been flowing outward, and the flow made him panic a little.

At this time, countless images flashed through Richard's consciousness, and many memories that he thought he had forgotten passed through his mind one by one. Suddenly, the first ten years of childhood flashed by like lightning, and all the memories were so fresh and profound.

"Mom, what kind of person is Dad?"

"He's a real man, a hero, and a bastard!"

"Why doesn't he live with us?"

"It's a secret!"

"Sue me!"

"One day when my little Richard becomes a real man, my mother will sue you. ”

"What does it mean to be a real man?"

"Just knock down your dad!"

"I will!"

......

In a trance, a ray of light seemed to appear in front of Richard's eyes, and it was the brilliance of divine magic. So the fluttering consciousness was pulled back into the body, and Richard even felt a little incredible.

When the scene before him became clear again, Richard saw a rather familiar face of the priest. It was the family priest brought by Agamemnon. The priest seemed to be trying to cast a magic spell, his face was tired and sweaty, and his old face was wrinkled like a chrysanthemum ravaged by frost and snow.

Richard turned his head to the left and saw that it was Agamemnon, with the same pained expression on his face. Looking to the right, Nereus is as beautiful as a flower.

"You two, were you crazy?" Richard scolded.

"Fuck your uncle!" were Agamemnon's words.

"How much better are you than we are?" Nereus was also sober.

"!" Richard had nothing to say except foul language.

He no longer paid attention to the two madmen, but yelled at the people in his vision, "Help me up, go see that goddess officer!"

"Lord Richard, which goddess officer?" asked the royal guard, who was staring at Richard, in a cold sweat.

Richard said impatiently: "Which one else is the most beautiful face!"

So the clever and promising royal guard helped Richard to the quicksand. The Divine Favor closed her eyes tightly, her breath was weak, but she still did not forget to give Richard a fierce middle finger! But the corners of her lips and mouth were full of uncontrollable smiles, obviously very satisfied with Richard's evaluation.

Richard snorted and said, "Take me to see the sorceress?"

"Which sorceress?" asked the royal guard, his future looking brighter.

"Nonsense, the one with the biggest breasts!"

So Richard was carried before the dragon mage.

"Are you still alive?" asked Richard, a tremor in his voice.

"Sister, I have a wish that has not been fulfilled, how can I die like this!" Lina said angrily.

Richard was carried in a full circle, and then back to where he was, and was laid on the grass. The grass is still soft, but it's a little wet.

However, looking to the left, Agamemnon was lying, and to the right, there were the four princes, and Richard felt calm.

He burst out laughing, and a moment later, Nereth laughed too, followed by Agamemnon. Three distinct styles of laughter intertwine and echo through the forest.

The next step was to clean up the battlefield, and Richard's side had more than 130 killed, almost all of whom were wounded. Fifteen costumed knights folded three more. The elves threw down nearly a thousand corpses, eleven druids, more than one hundred and thirty war treants, and one son of the forest.

The biggest result is the Blood Crystal of the Children of the Forest and the strange bone blade war spear he wields, which is a weapon that has a good chance of reaching the legendary level. However, whether it can still retain its special effects after leaving the green forest plane still needs to be further evaluated.

As for the migrating tree of life, it must have gone far and there is no way to track it.

A day later, Richard's troops set off for the base city. In addition to the blood crystals, the most important thing in the harvest is the heart of a dozen tree people. But on the way back, the whole procession was silent, silently walking through the forest.

The soldiers cut down trees and made a large number of covered stretchers to carry the wounded who could not walk. Richard, Neres, and Agamemnon each took a stretcher. When they looked at each other, their expressions were both helpless and emotional.

Agamemnon's intestines were broken, Nereus's ribs were barely intact, and he was kicked by the Son of the Forest when he desperately grabbed the Son of the Forest's ankle. As for Richard, it's just that the magic power has been reduced back to level thirteen, and it has been used twice in a row, so it's really strange if it is not downgraded, fortunately, there don't seem to be any other sequelae at present, you know, it's not uncommon for magicians to overconsume mana so much that the upper limit of mana is damaged.

The fact that quicksand's eyes are fine is the biggest piece of good news. Luckily, Nereus and Agamemnon brought enough family priests with them.

The atmosphere of the whole team is still very relaxed, so relaxed that people don't laugh much.

After returning to the base city, Lina fell into a coma. The corrosive power of the red dragon's breath had penetrated deep into Lina's body, lingering. Although Lina and Carlo are contractual partners, and after a long time, Lina herself has the ability to use and resist Dragon Flame, but it is still far from confronting Caro's full spitting head-on.

In terms of elite combat power, the main losses are the backbone, including the Royal Infantry Knights, Bloody Guards, and Akmunds who have reached the standard of Constructed Knights. And these are also the most valuable assets of the three young people in the process of starting out.

Eight of Richard's ten elite humanoid knights were killed in battle. Although the brood could certainly be replenished with more elite knights after such a long time, Richard still felt depressed and sad. Perhaps, this was the last time Richard felt sorry for the combat unit of the brood.

He was forcing his heart to harden quickly.

The good news is that the elven poet's life has been saved, but it will take a period of recuperation, even longer than Lina's. Quicksand turned out to be just a prostration, and her eyes were recovering rapidly, and she would be able to fully recover in a few days.

The death of the Sanctuary powerhouse, Scheer, was the biggest loss. In the middle and final stages of the war, the Great Magister Pamir's appearance was disappointing, if it weren't for Lina's desperate outburst, he might not have been able to keep the Children of the Forest, at least his blood crystal. Before this battle, Richard had smeared elemental extraction on his elven knife, and a bloody battle with the Children of the Forest would have killed him no matter what, but it was the difference between being on the spot and afterward.

Although Pamir is a little disappointing, his appearance is actually in line with the rules, even if it is a wealthy family, it is difficult for the powerhouses of the Holy Realm and the Great Magus to die desperately on the battlefield. So Richard and the others just looked at it, but they didn't say anything, and they didn't accuse it afterwards.

In contrast, the dragon mage's outburst was unexpected.

ps: Gaga, for the dedication of my comrades, and for me to win the bet in August. In August, I said 200,000, which has passed.
