Chapter 321: The Battle at the Foot of the Mountain (13)
The young lord was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered a question - what about Melissa? She came with her, why did she disappear from behind?
Leon immediately looked around, and soon found the emaciated back of the assassin girl.
Dozens of meters away, on the inside of the mountain road, Melissa was squatting on the ground, and across from her stood a child of five or six years old, who could not tell whether it was a man or a woman, but could only see a blood stain on his cheek, sobbing quietly.
Melissa held a roll of bandage in her hand, and gently wrapped it around the child's head, round and round, delicate and neat, as if she was saying something to the child, and then the child nodded heavily, and then slowly stopped sobbing.
On the ground near them, the corpses of the two fierce Pengs were scattered in pieces, and the blood stains almost soaked the entire ground.
Li Ang immediately understood that this must have happened when he had just confronted the fierce Peng who was constantly diving down, and it should be that two of them wanted to take the opportunity to attack the child, but they were discovered by Melissa and rushed over to kill the attacker and save the child.
Next, he watched Melissa tear off a bandage, patiently wiped the blood off the child's face, and then patted him on the shoulder before standing up.
ā...... This little girl is quite loving," Leon's heart was a little touched, but then he thought of another possibility - could it be that Melissa lacked family affection since she was a child, so when she saw a child of her age, she would be overflowing with love?
At this time, Melissa had already walked up to him, lowered her head as if she had done something wrong, grabbed the placket of her shirt with her hand, and whispered: "Yes, I'm sorry, Commander!
"What's the ......" Li Ang sighed in his heart, when will this little girl's nervousness when she see her get rid of it?
"It's good that you can independently judge that you saved that child, why apologize?"
Melissa still kept her head down, her toes gently grinding against the ground, but she didn't answer.
Leon was helpless, he felt that sometimes Miss Melissa was more difficult to communicate with than Erin, who had just joined the team.
"You...... Can you deal with them?" Leon simply went straight to the point and said to Melissa: "We can't all be entangled by these beasts, but we must also leave one person to prevent them from coming down to kill the mountain people, if you can deal with them, I will help the others deal with the wolves." ā
Melissa nodded slightly.
"Very well," said Leon, "take care of your own safety, and I'll go back at once." ā
"Wait, wait......" Melissa finally spoke.
"What?" Leon looked back in confusion.
"Captain, IāI have a solution," Melissa said with obvious courage.
"What's the way?" Li Ang just finished asking, suddenly frowned, and asked, "How to deal with the fierce Peng?"
"Hmm......" Melissa nodded again.
"Good, though...... Tell me about it?" said Leon softly, although he was anxious, but he was afraid that he would scare the little girl's courage back again.
Melissa looked up, her gaze peeling away from Leon's face, and looking up into the air.
"This creature is too big, so it can't fly high, it can't fly fast, and it can't fly far......" As soon as she talked about the knowledge of the beast, all the other emotions on Melissa's face disappeared and became much more calm.
"They've been hovering at this height, which means it's possible that this is their limit," Melissa said, finally daring to look Leon in the eye, she paused and continued, "I think I can kill at least half of them if you can throw me up." ā
"Huh?" Leon was stunned.
This little girl didn't speak, and when she spoke, it was amazing, and she wanted to throw her into the sky, and then fight with the fierce Pengs there?
"No, it's too high," Li Ang immediately shook his head, "It's not that I can't throw it up, but this height is too dangerous for you, and I can't let you take risks just to kill these fierce pengs." ā
"I, I, I can really ......" The little girl was a little anxious and began to stutter again.
"No, you stay down there, if they dare to come down, you can do whatever you want, it's just this Jian yƬ can't do it!" Li Ang interrupted her, turned his head and walked back.
His arms tightened, and when he looked back, he saw Melissa tugging at his sleeve.
The assassin girl's expression was extremely firm, although she saw Li Ang stop and look back at her, there was a panic in her eyes, but then this panicked look disappeared, "Commander, believe me, I can do it!"
Then her tone was a little hurried, "And it's too passive to wait below, if we can kill most of them, the rest should not dare to stay near this mountain peak, then we can not only let the mountain people enter the mountain path with confidence, but also go to support Sister Caterina and them together." ā
"All you need is to wait for me down there, as long as I fall, just catch me!"
Li Ang and the girl's bright eyes looked at each other, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "Are you really sure, or do you simply want to do something for that child?"
"I-I'm ......," Melissa started with a loud voice, but then faded down, "I'm really sure." ā
"Okay...... Leon patted her on the shoulder and said, "I trust you." ā
Melissa's body stiffened, and when she heard the latter words, she immediately bit her lower lip, and her body softened, "Thank you...... Captain!"
"Well, I'm thinking about how to throw you up. ā
Li Ang raised his head, those fierce Pengs did not continue to climb, they had been hovering in place. Visually, they were about fifty or sixty meters above the ground, if it were a small body like Melissa...... Maybe it's possible.
It's a pity that the Shocking Roar in the bloodline talent can only be used twice a day, otherwise when it is just attacked by the Fierce Peng, it can destroy at least dozens of them with a single activation, so there is no need to be as entangled as now.
However, how to throw it? Even if the strength of the young lord is far beyond that of ordinary people, he has never tried to throw a large living person directly into the air fifty or sixty meters in the air.
The warrior did have a long-range throwing skill, but Leon had not learned it, in this case...... He looked Melissa up and down again.
The little girl knew that Leon was thinking about something, so although his face was flushed, he still straightened up and motionless to meet Leon's scrutiny.
"Hmm...... With such a figure, if you go straight up and down, there should be very little wind resistance......" Li Ang thought seriously despite the fact that his thought would anger most women.
More than half an hour passed, and Melissa was waiting anxiously, when she suddenly heard Leon say, "Keep your feet tight, your head high, and your chest up." ā
Melissa did right away.
Leon looked at it, said "um", then stood in front of Melissa, reached out and touched the girl's waist.
"Ah!" the little girl was startled, and fled at once, her face flushed and her chest rising and falling.
ā...... Your sister, am I so like a bad person?" Li Ang was depressed, but still said, "Come here!"
Melissa came over expectantly, but her eyes did not dare to look at each other.
Li Ang said angrily: "I have thought about it for a long time, if you straighten your body, I will hold your waist with one hand and grab your leg with the other, so the effect of throwing it up is the best!"
"Oh......," Melissa sighed visibly.
This time, when Li Ang touched the girl's waist, although he felt that his muscles were as tense as an iron plate, he did not escape after all. The young leader held Melissa up with all his might, grabbed her calf with the other hand, and then he looked up again to see the hovering trajectory of the fierce Peng group.
After a few seconds, Leon exhaled, stomped his feet on the ground, and then lunged forward a dozen steps, and then the muscles of his waist, abdomen, back, and arms burst out with unmatched force, and with a "ha" thud, Melissa's body was thrown hard.
I saw that the little girl's body was like a straight javelin, flying towards the fierce Peng group in mid-air from a distance.
