"It's Luke, he's catching up!"

"What?!"

Glancing back at the giant eagle that was rapidly closing the distance with them, Xue Li was confused, and had no idea what Tarke was talking about.

Regarding the special class of wood elves, Xue Li didn't know about it.

"That guy Luke is an elven druid with strong cultivation, he can transform into a giant eagle to fight!"

Although Tarke explained again, Xue Li still looked incomprehensible.

"All in all, the giant eagle that is chasing us is Luke, the third elder of the Wood Elf clan!"

As he spoke, the giant eagle had completely caught up with them, and when Tark saw this, his face suddenly became ugly.

At the same time, Xue Li, who had already understood something to some extent, said to Talke: "Can't you cast some kind of spell to knock that big bird down from the sky?" ”

In Xue Li's opinion, since Arthur Wang was able to use the Wind Technique to repel the pursuers, then Talke, as the patriarch of the Wood Elf Clan, should have some similar means.

As long as he can knock that old bird down from the sky, then he has a way to kill the other party, and now that the other party is flying in the sky, he can't hit it, then there is no way.

However, when he heard this, Tarke's expression was embarrassed.

"I'm not a mage, and I don't have magic equipment, so I can't cast spells."

Xue Li couldn't help but complain: "This ...... Aren't you the patriarch? Why don't you even have a decent piece of equipment?! ”

This guy looked quite powerful and domineering from head to toe, Xue Li thought that like Arthur Wang, he could also cast some spells.

It turned out to be nothing!

And when Tarke heard this, he was also embarrassed in his heart.

Still, he explained, "We Wood Elves aren't good at forging magical equipment, that's what High Elves are good at. ”

But it's useless to say anything now, Luke's old bird is flying too fast.

According to the speed of the other party, even if they can get rid of the pursuers behind them in the end, they can't get rid of this old bird.

"Chirp—"

Just when Tark was at a loss, an eagle's cry suddenly sounded.

Adolf stepped on the back of a giant eagle and headed for Naluk.

"Hurry up, I'll stop Luke!"

"Adolf!"

At this time, Tarke's expression was full of anxiety.

However, Tarke soon flew high into the air and did not even hear his shouts.

Xue Li, who was next to him, asked a little strangely, "He is also an elf druid?" ”

"It's not. He is an Elk Knight. ”

After saying this, Tark stopped speaking, obviously not in the mood to give Xue Li a further explanation.

Seeing this, Xue Li stopped asking him about Adolf, because even if he did, the other party might not be able to say anything.

The battle in the sky had begun, and Adolf stepped firmly on the back of a giant eagle, then bent his bow and arrow, shooting at the giant eagle that Luke had transformed into not far away.

However, Luke was not easy to get along with, and with a flap of his wings, he directly changed his flight trajectory to avoid Tarke's arrow.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the giant eagle that Tark was riding actually stretched out a pair of eagle talons and grabbed him!

In the face of the coordinated offensive of Tark and the Giant Eagle, Luke was shocked, and then the eagle's beak opened his mouth and said: "Look for death!" ”

Luke's wings flapped violently, and he directly set off a gust of wind pressure and hit the giant eagle that Adolf was riding.

Tarke, who was standing on the back of the giant eagle, was implicated and fell directly from the eagle's back.

Looking at Tark falling from the sky, Luke sneered, and then exploded with speed and planned to take advantage of the victory to chase after him, taking this opportunity to solve the threat of Tark in one go.

However, Tarke, whose body was falling rapidly, did not panic at all, but in the process of falling, he regained the balance of his body, and then directly performed a series of arrows in mid-air.

And at the same time as he shot this handful of arrows, the giant eagle, which had also regained its balance, quickly flapped its wings, and instantly burst out with speed, catching Adolf who was falling.

An elf, a giant eagle, just like that, showed a perfect cooperation in mid-air.

Adolf's difficulty was far beyond Luke's imagination, and after a few rounds of fighting, he realized that Luke couldn't take him in a short period of time, and couldn't help but open his mouth again.

"Adolf, are you determined to help Talk, a traitor, betray the Wood Elves?! If you turn back now, as an elder of the clan, I can still give you a chance! ”

Hearing this, Tark, who was standing on the back of the eagle, had a look of anger on his face.

"Shut up, Luke, you ungrateful old fellow is a traitor!!"

Before he could finish speaking, Tark fired another arrow at Luke.

"Stubborn! Then there is only one dead end!! ”

Luke was undoubtedly enraged.

Between the flapping of his wings, the wind pressure continued to hit, and Tarke's arrows couldn't get close to him at all, and then the eagle's beak opened, and he directly spit out a wind bomb and attacked Talke.

At the same time, after fusing with the Eagle Spirit, he also has a hand-to-hand combat ability that is not weak.

As one of the three elders with the highest cultivation in the Wood Elf clan, Luke's strength is beyond doubt.

In the sky, the battle between Tark and Luke was extremely fierce, and the two giant eagles collided and attacked wildly in the air.

On the ground, Xue Li's cavalry team did not dare to break through all the way, and after rushing with all their might, they finally rushed out of the forest of the wood elves.

Getting rid of the difficult forest terrain, the cavalry quickly increased.

In the face of the cavalry team that began to give full play to the advantages of starting power, the pursuers of the wood elves in the rear were already difficult to catch up with them again.

Under the guidance of another group of wood elves, Xue Li quickly fled with his cavalry, and then hid in another forest.

As soon as the cavalry team entered the forest, the wood elves that appeared around them directly made them tense their nerves, and they subconsciously raised their weapons.

Fortunately, the group of wood elves who were responsible for leading the way shouted in time.

"Calm down! It's your own people! ”

After hearing this, the wood elves in the forest softened their expressions and put down their weapons one after another.

Although Xue Li still didn't know anything about what happened in the Wood Elf clan, these Wood Elves had just rescued them from their predicament, so there was no need to harm them again

Therefore, Xue Li waved his hand and motioned to the soldiers under his command to lay down their weapons so as not to cause any conflicts.

The cavalry followed them further into the forest, and then found a camp deep in the forest.

The camp was clearly recently erected and looked very rudimentary.

But in the current situation, it would be good to have a relatively stable place to rest, so what else is there to pick and choose?

After ordering the lieutenant general to count the casualties of the soldiers, Xue Li himself found a random place to sit down, and then looked up at Tarke, who was standing there.

"Patriarch Talk, you have to give us an explanation for this incident!"

Hearing this, Talke's face froze, and then nodded heavily.

"After figuring out what happened in the clan during my absence, I will definitely give you an explanation!"

In this regard, Xue Li nodded.

Soon, the adjutant general had already counted the number of casualties.

"Report to the general, our army has a total of 700 cavalry on this trip, of which 327 were killed and 63 were seriously wounded, and almost all of them were wounded.

After hearing this, Xue Li's face instantly became ugly.

This time, they can be said to have suffered heavy losses.

This is a cavalry, and the manpower and material resources required to train cavalry far exceed the purchase of ordinary infantry. In terms of the value of the class alone, one cavalry can be worth three infantrymen, or even more.

And now the troops brought out are directly folded in half, and the rest are basically hung up.

As soon as he thought of this, Xue Li's face was already gloomy and about to drip water.

At the same time, the Wood Elf who had led them all the way to the forest came over with a dozen robed Wood Elves.

"They are?"

"They are priests of the clan and can perform healing spells. I see that many of you are injured and want to help heal you. ”

Hearing this, Xue Li immediately stood up and hugged his fists at the wood elf.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, you should be."

As they spoke, the elven priests walked briskly towards the seriously wounded soldiers.

Then, after the elven priests stretched out their hands and chanted a spell in their mouths, an emerald green light suddenly appeared between their palms, and then covered the wound of a seriously wounded soldier.

Seeing this action of the other party, the seriously injured soldier subconsciously gritted his teeth and prepared to bear the pain next.

Then, in the next second, the seriously wounded soldier froze.

He found that it was not at all different.

Not only did it not hurt, but he felt a cool feeling from his wound, which was unexpectedly a little comfortable.

After the healing technique was performed, looking at the wound of the seriously injured soldier, the soldiers who were paying attention to the situation here let out a burst of exclamation.

Because, the wound on the soldier's body is actually starting to scab over!

You know, based on their usual experience, it would take at least ten days or more for the soldier's injuries to begin to slowly scab over after they were treated.

But now, how much time has just passed?

At this moment, the soldiers felt the magic of the spell directly.

Xue Li had seen this hand before, but this did not affect his gratitude.

Thanks to the timely help of the elven priests, many soldiers who were seriously injured and dying were saved by their healing techniques at this time.

As their general, Xue Li naturally couldn't help but thank the elven priests again.

Suddenly, the atmosphere between the two sides has also become a lot more harmonious.

And at this moment, a giant eagle quickly landed in the camp in the sky.

Then, Adolf, who was lying on the back of the giant eagle, fell directly to the ground.

Seeing this scene, Tarke was shocked, and hurriedly rushed up to help Adolf up from the ground.

At the same time shouted loudly: "Priest! Priest, hurry up!! ”

Hearing the call of the patriarch, the elven priests did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly ran over.

At the same time, it is unknown whether Adolf did not faint in the first place, or was woken up by Tarke's shouting.

I saw that after he opened his eyes, he slowly spoke: "Don't worry...... He was hit twice by Luke's wind bomb and couldn't die. ”

Hearing this, Tark's eyes fell directly on Adolf's leather armor.

I saw that a piece of armor on Adolf's chest was directly smashed out of a depression, and in some places it was even damaged, and even the flesh and skin under the armor had become bloody and blurry.

Several elven priests who ran over hurriedly began to join forces to perform healing techniques.

Bathed in the light of healing, Adolf's slightly frown slowly soothed, and he felt a lot better.

At this time, Xue Li really wanted to ask Adolf about the ins and outs of this whole incident, but he also knew that it was not appropriate now, so he could only ease it up a little.

The group camped directly in the forest, and after a night's rest, Xue Li approached Tarke and Tarke to inquire about the situation.
