I kissed the statue at the beginning and I vomited all over the floor

Ivan sat down on the ground. The intense battle made this somewhat weak former noble lord exhausted.

Thanks to "The Battle of Xbox One" and SRPG, my tactical command won my first victory.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the team members dragged Ivan, who didn't want to move, into a tree hole. Todd used [Tree Shaping] to turn the tree hole into a temporary safe house.

"Pervert, you are too weak...

With your physical condition, how dare you harm so many women..."

No, when did I ever abuse women? When you spread rumors, please give some evidence!

Alvin, who didn't even want to move his lips, could only make a silent protest in his heart.

"You are amazing, Ivan boy!"

Todd sat down next to Ivan and slapped him, causing the loser to fall backwards in pain.

How come you, a talent of magic, have such great strength?

"Alright, everyone, let's take a break. Although we successfully killed nearly a hundred Fallen this time, we don't know how many we will encounter in the next battle."

The nominal captain Xiling began to give orders, and the team members who still had energy left started to make a fire, cook and prepare equipment. Lian, in particular, who had not consumed much energy in the battle, started to talk like a short loli again.

"Oh my, isn't this Mr. Pervert?

Why are you lying on the ground without moving?

Mr. Pervert, where is your bed maid?

Why don’t you bring two of them out to give you a massage to loosen up your muscles?

......"

Ivan, who was watching Lian's performance with his eyes drooping, fell into a deep sleep amid the calls of "Mr. Pervert".

……

Priest Paul sat in the middle of the pile of corpses, taking a piece of dried meat and tearing it into big bites.

If there were still Fallen Beings alive, they would probably feel that this human's biting action was much more ferocious than their own biting.

The large, middle-aged bald man was now shirtless, wearing only a pair of leather pants.

But he learned his lesson this time and knew to take off his clothes before transforming. The cloaks and other things were piled up next to him intact.

Priest Paul, who was chewing dried meat, didn't care about the snowflakes falling on his body, and seemed to be unconcerned about the cold stimulation.

"I didn't expect the Fallen to have such a commander. I'll have to confirm it a few more times."

While chewing the food, he was thinking about the next strategy.

"I don't know what's going on with Xi Ling... Well... With that brat around, there shouldn't be any big problems."

After finishing his food, Paul stood up and began to put on his clothes one by one.

Under him, where he had been sitting,

They were the corpses of several fallen elves that were crushed by a huge force.

"Next...just pick a direction at random."

……

Having regained his strength, Ivan sat in front of the fire and analyzed the encounter with the team.

"I think we need to speed up the process."

He took a handful of raspberries from Todd, a gift from a little squirrel.

"When I was killing that intelligent fallen one, I always felt like something was watching me."

"what?!"

Lian thought that Alvin was talking about her and sat up straight.

As a man who loves to protect his sister, this short half-elf did peek at Ivan quite often.

Just as Lian was about to explain, Ivan's next words made her shut her mouth quickly.

“I felt something running out of the Fallen’s body the moment it fell to the ground.

Then, I had a strange feeling that I was being watched.”

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

On the Prime Material Plane, such incidents are rare, but they are still recorded.

For example, a powerful wizard uses a wizard tower to amplify his arcane power and conduct long-distance spying;

Or they may be priests of certain gods, who can use the power of the divine realm to conduct prophetic explorations;

Or maybe it's just a... god, the direct gaze from a god.

Either way, it's not good news for the team.

“I had agreed with the pastor for three days.

After three days, no matter what progress we make, we need to return to the base and share the information from this clearing operation.

So don't think too much, take this time to rest, we will continue the operation after daybreak."

Over the next two days, the team only encountered scattered fallen elves or small groups of enemies.

After the successful battle at the beginning, the cooperation between the teams became more and more proficient.

Many times, there is no need for Ivan to formulate tactics, and the team members can win the battle tacitly.

Although the intensity of the battles decreased, their frequency became very frequent.

From the start till now, the Second Mopping-up Team is estimated to have killed more than 300 Fallen Elves, and they have to go through at least one battle every natural hour.

Now, Alvin and Xiling are hiding among several trees, waiting for Lin Liya's reconnaissance results.

"The last destination is ahead. After we finish clearing out this place, we must hurry back to our base."

Xiling stretched out her hand and caught the falling snowflakes.

The increase in snow volume has been noticeable over the past two days. If it weren't for the huge oak canopy in the Haze Forest blocking the view, the snow on the ground would have been as high as Lian's.

"Yes...ah...dedededededede..."

Alvin, who couldn't use [Light and Heat Magic] to keep warm, wrapped himself in his cloak, his teeth chattering uncontrollably.

"But this place is also a depression, and there may be a large number of fallen elves gathered together."

"Damn...it depends...on the situation...damn..."

If she wasn't wearing a hood, Xiling would have the urge to hold her forehead.

“You’d better stop talking.

I really can't stand you. You haven't learned a zero-ring spell in such a long time, but you somehow know those first- and second-ring spells.

What were you doing while listening to me explain the divine arts..."

“Dead, dead, dead…”

After a while, Lin Liya's return drew the team members' attention.

According to speculation, there are likely to be hundreds of Fallen gathered in this place, and this will probably be the most difficult battle in their current clearing operation.

"Captain Xi Ling——"

Lin Liya's voice trembled a little.

Ivan glanced at the elf ranger and asked, "Are you so cold that you're trembling when you speak?"

Without waiting for Xiling to answer, Lin Liya rushed to the front of everyone and said in a trembling voice:

"Captain Xiling, there are about four hundred fallen elves ahead, but...but..."

"but?"

"But they're all dead! And it looks like a giant creature did it."

"what?!"
