Chapter 77 - Amidst the Chaos, Meet Manicco

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The system notification rang out like a bone-chilling chill that seeped into Li Yi’s heart.

“Amidst the chaos…”

Li Yi silently recited the name of the mission in his heart.

“Okay.”

Li Yi did not say anything else and directly agreed to Alice’s request. It was not just for the sake of the mission. It was also to find out what was going on.

This sudden mission felt like the calm before the storm.

According to the memories of his previous life, the war between the factions would be in the middle and later stages, not now.

“Thank you so much!”

Alice was overjoyed after receiving Li Yi’s approval. Her pale face — which was tense from the pain — could not help but smile at this moment.

“Okay, but I’ll treat the wound on your shoulder first.”

Li Yi pointed at Alice’s right shoulder that was still bleeding. If he treated it to stop the bleeding, Li Yi would probably be able to let her walk on her own after walking for a few minutes.

“This…” Alice smiled bitterly and nodded slightly. “Then I’ll have to trouble you, sir. I don’t have any healing items on me.”

Li Yi waved his hand indifferently and opened his friend list to send a message to Little Merchant.

He asked him to send a set of Medicine, as well as the materials used to bandage Ebner the last time.

Ding!

The message notification sounded, and as expected, he saw the message from Little Merchant.

[LM: Disgraced shopkeeper, can you spend less money for me! Do you think it’s easy to make money around here?!]

[Item Received: Medicine x64 and Bandage x20.]

After reading the message, Li Yi clicked his tongue and kept his complaints in his heart. Then, he put away the Medicine and Bandages.

“Your Highness, although it may be presumptuous, please let me take a look at the wound.”

Li Yi said lightly.

When Alice heard this, her pale face could not help but turn a little red. She pursed her lips and nodded. Then, she let go of the hand that was covering her right shoulder.

Compared to Alice’s shyness, Li Yi did not feel anything at all. He directly went forward to check the wound.

The luxurious clothes on Alice’s right shoulder had been torn. A hideous wound ran across her right arm. Bright red blood kept seeping out from it and dripped onto the ground.

Looking at this wound, Li Yi frowned. It was much more serious than he had imagined.

Logically speaking, an ordinary person who has suffered such an injury would have long fainted due to excessive blood loss.

Li Yi did not dare to delay any longer. He took out a bottle of Medicine and a few pieces of Bandages from his backpack.

“Bear with it for a bit please.”

Li Yi said and opened the bottle of medicine. He poured the medicine directly onto the wound on Alice’s arm.

He was not a healing mage, so he could only use this rather old-fashioned method to help the NPC heal. To an NPC, the medicine was equivalent to alcohol in reality.

When it was poured on the wound, it would be very painful.

Alice bit her lips tightly, her small face turned tense. Cold sweat ran down her cheeks, and she tried hard not to scream from the pain.

Li Yi glanced at her and could not help but say in his heart, ‘What a strong girl.’

After more than a minute, Alice’s wound was treated. Li Yi said, “Your Highness, if I take you to the Emperor City, it will take a long time to walk from here. So please follow me to the Knights camp nearby.”

Alice did not refuse and nodded, “Okay.”

Seeing this, Li Yi did not delay any longer and led Alice through the forest.

After more than a minute, Li Yi stopped. Under Alice’s puzzled gaze, he said helplessly,

“Your Highness, you’re injured. Your footsteps are a little slow. Let me carry you.”

Li Yi’s words were serious and held no ill will. When he led Alice, he realized that her footsteps were too weak. It was as if she could fall at the next moment.

Alice hesitated for a moment before finally nodding her head.

After getting the agreement, Li Yi bent down and carried Alice on his back. He sped up and ran towards the camp.

…

About ten minutes later, Li Yi brought Alice to the front of the camp.

The officer from before happened to be outside. When he saw Li Yi, he immediately went up to him and asked curiously,

“Heavy Armored Dragon Knight, may I ask who is behind you…”

Before he could finish his words, the officer saw Alice’s face clearly and was immediately shocked.

“It’s actually Her Highness Alice. Sorry for not welcoming you respectfully!”

The officer bowed, but because she was not the princess of his country, he did not kneel.

Li Yi did not have time to talk converse with the soldier now. He only replied anxiously, “I’m looking for Sir Myron. Can you get him for me please?”

After saying that, he walked past the officer and quickly walked into the tent where Myron was.

“Sir Myron!”

Li Yi had just walked in when he saw Myron looking disheartedly at the documents.

When Myron heard the voice, he raised his head and saw that it was Li Yi. Just as he was about to greet him, Li Yi directly interrupted him.

Then, he put Alice down from his back and helped her to sit on the stool. Then, he quickly told her what had happened.

…

“What! It turned out to be like this!”

Myron cried out in surprise. Then, he rubbed his temples to prevent a headache.

“I didn’t expect such a thing to happen. Alice, Heavy Armored Dragon Knight, please wait a moment, I’ll get someone to prepare the flying beast to get to where you want quicker.

After saying that, Myron hurriedly walked out of the tent. After a moment, Myron walked into the tent and spoke to the two people. Li Yi carried Alice and walked out of the tent.

He found that the officer was already waiting for them with a handsome horse with white wings.

Li Yi then mounted Alice on the horse.

With his previous life’s experience, riding on a flying beast was a piece of cake for him.

“Oh right, this is the wind wolf leg bone.”

Just as they were about to leave, Li Yi took out a huge leg bone from his backpack and threw it at Myron.

Seeing the leg bone that was as tall as a person being thrown at him, Myron took a step forward and grabbed it firmly with both hands.

“Thank you very much, Heavy Armored Dragon Knight. Please come to me when you are free after sending Princess Alice off. I have some gifts prepared for you.”

Myron said with a smile.

Li Yi nodded. With a light pull of the horse rope, the flying beast soared into the sky and headed straight for Yu City.

…

In the sky, the flying beast flew all the way, bringing Li Yi and Alice to the teleportation array in Yu City. The reason they went to Yu City was because there was a teleportation center that could directly bring them to Emperor City.

“Stop!”

The flying beast landed. Li Yi pulled the rope, and the flying beast obediently stopped.

“Your Highness Alice, Please.”

Li Yi was the first to get down from the Flying Beast. He stretched out his hand to help Alice, who was a little weak due to the loss of blood.

“Thank you, sir.”

Alice reached out her hand and slowly got down with Li Yi’s help.

“Please activate the teleportation portal. Our destination is the Emperor City.”

Li Yi turned around and said to the knights guarding the teleportation portal. Since the knight guarding the teleportation portal had seen Li Yi before and knew his identity, he did not say much. After asking and bowing, he activated the teleportation portal.

“Let’s go.”

Li Yi said to Alice beside him.

Then, he led her through the teleportation portal and arrived at the Emperor City.

Li Yi did not delay much. After obtaining Alice’s permission, he carried her on his back and quickly ran to where the commander was.

…

“Sir Manicco!”

Li Yi carried Alice on his back and directly walked into Manicco’s office.

Manicco, who was sitting in front of the desk and processing documents, heard a voice and raised his head. When he saw Li Yi, he could not help but ask in puzzlement,

“Sir Heavy Armored Dragon Knight, why are you back so soon?

“And who is the person behind you… Huh???”

Manicco noticed Alice behind Li Yi and immediately widened his eyes. He could not help but turn surprised!

“Your Highness Alice?”

As the Head Knight Commander of the country, Manicco naturally knew the princesses of the neighboring country.

“Hello, Sir Manicco. Long time no see.”

Alice leaned on Li Yi’s back. Her pale face revealed a forced smile.

She had lost too much blood, and her consciousness had gradually blurred..
