————————Dividing line————————

The canines that were gnawing on B2's corpse turned around and saw their companions being slaughtered.

The leader roared and began to retreat.

Cinderella's cold eyes swept across, and all the canines couldn't help but shiver.

But as a leader, I must not retreat at this moment.

It roared again, and all the canines gathered their courage and pounced on Cinderella!

but……

“Puff—”

"call out--"

"Buzz—"

Several sonic booms were heard, and all the canine-toothed beasts were beheaded, except for the leader.

Seeing Cinderella approaching, the leader became frightened.

It began to retreat, trying to escape.

But at this moment, more than a dozen cannon shots were suddenly heard in the distance!

"Boom boom boom!" It's the army of the human defense line!

Countless shells fell, and the place where Cinderella and the Houndstooth were turned into a sea of ​​fire with billowing smoke.

"No! No! No!" Alice knew that it was her sister! She had to save her!

She threw herself into the sea of ​​artillery without hesitation!

boom!

A cannonball landed, and Alice, young and helpless, without any defense, was hit by one. Two massive shockwaves, one on the left and one on the right, tore her limbs apart...

Because of the pain... Alice completely fainted...

At the end, she seemed to see the figure of an old man, who picked her up with a look of regret...

…

When I woke up again...

White ceiling, white lights, white sheets, where am I?

Alice was wearing a ventilator, and the electrocardiogram beside her kept beeping...

"Her heart rate is normal, her breathing is normal, and all indicators are normal... General, she is alive."

"Okay, I understand. Go ahead."

Then I heard the sound of a door closing, followed by the sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor.

He was an old man with a kind face, but there was also regret in his eyes.

"Alice, right?"

Alice nodded.

"I'm sorry, Alice, we couldn't find your sister..."

Hearing this, Alice said nothing. She opened her mouth to speak, but found that she couldn't. Tears just flowed down her sides like a spring.

General Rossell closed his eyes while watching this scene. Although he could not empathize with the situation, he knew that all this was closely related to his own actions.

So he made up his mind: "Alice, from today on, you are my daughter. I will love and care for you as if you were my own daughter."

…

Retracting my thoughts...

Wu Jie was silent. He looked at the diary which was like his mental journey. He was completely silent for a moment and didn't know what to say.

"The Abyss Species who appeared in the arena that day, was she your sister?" Wu Jie asked.

Alice shuddered, paused, and then nodded.

Wu Jie sighed. It was truly a tragedy. If it weren't for the Aurora Beast, if it weren't for the mysterious life form, how could it have evolved to this point?

Thinking of this, Wu Jie subconsciously clenched his fists and hammered hard on the bed, as if to vent the anger in his heart.

"So, these modifications and experimental dance costumes were all your own requests?" Wu Jie asked.

Alice nodded again.

After hearing this, Wu Jie didn't say anything, but thought about it.

He felt more and more that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavy and he had to do something to change this rotten world.

But now he has little influence. Even though he has been promoted to column leader, his ability is still too weak. Only by constantly accumulating merits and growing can he let those beasts taste his power!

When he has enough power and voice, he will change, change this rotten world!

The ancients often said that as long as you work hard, you can grind an iron rod into a needle, and it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

Now he can't do anything out of line because of a momentary impulse.

He must advance steadily, take one step at a time, and continue to grow. Only in this way can he be worthy of those dancers who fought to the death under his orders!

Thinking of this, Wu Jie lost all desire to sleep.

Wu Jie sat up and said, "Sorry, I'm not sleepy anymore."

Alice raised her hand curiously and wrote, "Sir?"

Wu Jie smiled gently at Alice: "I'm sorry, it seems I really can't relax any longer. After all, war never waits for anyone."

As he spoke, Wu Jie put on his shoes and socks.

"Is the commander leaving?" Alice continued writing.

Wu Jie nodded and said, "Yes, we should prepare to depart for the Marine Research Department now. The sooner the Sky Dancer costume is put into use, the better it will be for humanity, even if it's just one day earlier."

Hearing this, Alice was inexplicably moved.

From the moment she was rescued by Wu Jie on the first day, she always regarded Wu Jie and her father as the same kind of people.
