Chapter 1443: Family Rule Again?
By this time, their enemy had no thoughts of fighting anymore. They got the news that their alliance army had already retreated and they were the only army still fighting. In addition, the continuous swarm of mechas from Lingtian and the fact that there were no commanders giving orders caused their psychological barrier to break down. Within a short time, they had all ran away like the tides of the ocean.
Ling Lan gave the order to chase them for 50 kilometers. The Lingtian army only came back after they chased their enemies for exactly that distance.
Zhao Jun opened his cockpit and came down with Doctor Ju.
Doctor Ju rushed to Elder Father’s mecha and shouted agitatedly. “Elder Father, Elder Father, are you alright?” Elder Father’s mecha was already lying on the ground. She was really worried.
Elder Father’s cockpit opened with a loud bang. Elder Father crawled out with some effort and said tiredly, “I’m fine.”
He had rested for a while so he finally had the energy to move.
Doctor Ju saw this and immediately took out the agent she had prepared from her medical bag. She passed it to Elder Father.
“Use ours.” A cold voice sounded behind her. Doctor Ju turned around hurriedly. She saw a soldier full of killing intent standing behind her. He had a bottle of agent in his hand. It was tightly sealed but her instinct told her that this agent wasn’t simple.
“Thank you,” Doctor Ju said with pleasant surprise.
She took the agent from the soldier and wanted to open it for Elder Father to drink. However, Elder Father reached out and grabbed her hands to stop her. “This is just a minor injury. There’s no need to waste such a good agent.”
Ling Lan said calmly, “This medicine might be good for your old injuries.”
“Really?” Doctor Ju’s eyes lit up. Her reason for becoming a doctor was because she didn’t want to see Elder Father being troubled by his old injuries again.
“If that’s really the case, this medicine is too precious.” Elder Father was touched but he still rejected. “It’s better to leave it for those who need it more.” Elder Father looked at the mecha operators that were injured and reminded her.
“There’s enough.” Ling Lan looked up slightly at the horizon. “This battle royale is ending soon.”
“Based on past experiences, it’s almost the end.” Elder Father smiled bitterly.
Ling Lan smiled slightly.
Doctor Ju had already opened the agent at the side. She calmly passed it to Elder Father. Seeing Ling Lan’s insistence, Elder Father didn’t refuse anymore and drank it directly.
“Thank you for taking care of them.” Ling Lan glanced at Zhao Jun who was standing diagonally behind her.
“There’s no need to thank me. It wasn’t my idea to care for them,” Elder Father replied. He frowned slightly. He just drank the agent but he had already started to feel the effect.
Elder Father wasn’t able to hide his change in expression from Ling Lan. Seeing this, Ling Lan raised her hand and asked Elder Father to just focus on recuperating, rather than continuing to talk to her.
Elder Father nodded gratefully. He found an empty spot and sat down. After some time, his expression gradually turned hideous. Doctor Ju, who had been observing him, felt her heart pounding furiously in fear.
“That’s how the Nuwa agent works. The greater the pain, the more effective it is,” Zhao Jun walked up to her and explained hurriedly.
Doctor Ju nodded to show that she understood. Then, she started waiting patiently at Elder Father’s side.
By this time, the search and rescue had ended. The leader in charge of the search and rescue looked gloomy. This time, they had lost two leader caliber soldiers. Fortunately, the other two leaders still had one breath left so after drinking the Nuwa agent, they managed to survive.
“War!” Ling Lan closed her eyes to hide the pain in them. When she opened them again, she had resumed her calmness.
“Bring them back home,” Ling Lan said in a low voice.
“Yes, Boss.” The leader took the order and left. Even if the leaders died here, they would bring them home to the place where they grew up in.
“Boss.” Luo Lang looked at her worriedly.
“What’s the matter?” Ling Lan raised her eyebrows.
“Brother Lanfeng’s condition seems terrible.” After the battle ended, he went to treat Li Lanfeng.
Ling Lan was shocked. She moved her body and immediately came in front of Li Lanfeng’s cockpit.
“What happened?” Ling Lan frowned and asked when she saw the medic standing outside the entrance of the cockpit with a helpless look.
“Ah, report. Regiment Commander Li’s body is covered with wounds. It has been a long time since he got injured. In addition, the automatic drying system of the cockpit caused his undergarments and his skin to get stuck together. If we want to take them apart, it will reopen the wounds again.” The medic’s face scrunched up with frustration. Li Lanfeng seemed to be experiencing excruciating pain. If they wanted to take off his clothes to treat him, it was almost the same as peeling the entire skin off.
“Zhao Jun,” Ling Lan shouted.
“Yes.” Zhao Jun immediately came beside Ling Lan.
“Immediately built a temporary medical tent,” Ling Lan ordered. “We’ll treat his wound right here.”
Ling Lan knew that the longer they dragged, the more serious Li Lanfeng’s injuries would be. Although the Nuwa agent’s self-healing ability was very strong, it was not enough to heal all the gaping wounds on his body, not to mention the internal injuries. If they didn’t separate the clothes from the skin as soon as possible, once the clothes got stuck in the wounds… it wasn’t just about peeling the skin. They would need to dig into the flesh too.
“Yes.” Zhao Jun knew that they couldn’t waste any time so he hurriedly led some men and built a new temporary surgery tent.
“Cough, cough…” Li Lanfeng suddenly coughed a few times. A drip of blood flowed down the edge of his lips. His body was breaking down. If it wasn’t for Li Shiyu’s life-saving agent, he might have died this time.
“Commander, the Li family has its family rules too,” Li Lanfeng smiled and said to Ling Lan weakly.
“Huh?” Ling Lan frowned. “Don’t speak. Save your energy for the treatment later.
“I have to say it. I’ll bandage my wounds personally later.” Li Lanfeng’s expression suddenly turned serious.
“What do you mean?” Faint anger appeared in Ling Lan’s eyes.
“I can’t let anyone see…” Li Lanfeng gave a bitter smile.
Ling Lan then remembered Li Lanfeng’s beautiful face. She understood a little of what he was saying.
“They will just be bandaging the wounds on your body,” Ling Lan explained. “I will watch over them.”
“Not only that. Everywhere…” Li Lanfeng forced himself to keep conscious. “Although it isn’t as strict as the family rules of the Ling family, it isn’t any better…” He grabbed Ling Lan’s hand. “It will affect my future. Don’t let… anyone… see it… anyhow… go back to the base camp, find… Shi…”
Before he could finish his sentence, he fainted.
Ling Lan furrowed her brows even more furiously. It was obvious that Li Lanfeng’s injuries didn’t allow him to wait until he went back to the base camp for treatment.
“Boss, we’re done.” Zhao Jun had already finished building the temporary tent.
“Boss?” The medic looked uncertain. Were they going to carry out the treatment?
“Prepare all the antiseptics and bandages.” Ling Lan made a decision swiftly. She would take care of the problem when it came but now, she must save Li Lanfeng first.
“Yes, Boss.” The medic rushed to prepare the medications and bandages.
Ling Lan carried Li Lanfeng up and swiftly walked to the temporary tent built by Zhao Jun and his men.
She carefully placed Li Lanfeng on the stretcher. After some time, the medic came back with all the necessary medications and bandages. He placed them at the side.
He took the pair of scissors and was just about to cut the clothes. Just then, he heard Ling Lan’s voice. “Let me do it. You can go out.”
“Huh?”
“Yes?” Ling Lan glanced at the medic. Her gaze wasn’t cold but the medic still felt as if an icicle just penetrated his soul.
“Oh, oh, alright. Alright.” The medic didn’t know what he was saying. By the time he regained his senses, he had already ran out of the tent.
He patted his chest lightly. Only the regiment commanders would be able to withstand the aura of their commander. You could really kneel in fright from just his glance.
“I don’t know what your family rule is but since you’re so afraid of it, it’s not something simple. Maybe it’ll be easier to solve it if I’m the one doing this.” Ling Lan sighed softly. Then, she took the pair of scissors and started cutting the undergarments that were stuck to the skin.
Wait… My Ling Lan, have you forgotten that you’re a lady? How can you look at a man’s naked body? Even though it’s covered in blood and badly injured.
