Falling area.
Lian An was covered in blood, and he stood in a circle with a dozen brothers beside him, back to back, holding the most "primitive and energy-saving" cold weapon - a knife in his hand, and looked at the countless Zergs surrounding them.
"Lieutenant General, it's nice to meet you. I really want to have another round of drinking with you."
"Lieutenant General, I killed a total of 1,407 bugs today. Am I awesome? If you were here, you would definitely praise me."
"Tsk, that first cannon shot you fired killed 1,400 of them, didn't it?"
The people around him laughed at him deliberately.
Lian An wanted to laugh, but he managed only to curl his lips. "It doesn't matter how many I kill. Killing one will cover my losses, and killing two will be pure profit."
"The adults will be proud of you."
He raised the knife in his hand, ignoring his wrist which was already so sore that it was almost powerless, licked his cracked lips, and roared heroically, "Kill!"
The Zerg screamed and pounced.
Surrounded by thousands of Zerg, these dozen or so people were like ants falling into boiling water, as if they would be drowned in the next second.
Lian An's arms were already numb, and he was only relying on a breath to swing his arms. Every time he chopped, he would cut off or split the body of a Zerg, splashing out a large amount of blood, which was fishy and smelly, making people nauseous.
But no one cared to complain, their only thought was to kill. Killing one would cover their losses, killing two would be a profit. The more they killed, the more worth dying for.
Their bloodiness and reckless ferocity angered the Zerg, but also frightened the Zerg, who were known for their cruelty and bloodiness.
So much so that for a moment, thousands of Zerg were unable to tear more than ten people to pieces immediately.
But Lian An and his men were actually at the end of their strength. No matter how brave and courageous they were, they were no match for the enemy.
Poof!
A Zerg's extremely sharp foot hook stabbed into Lian An's waist and abdomen.
Lian An only felt a flash before his eyes. He gritted his teeth and swallowed the fishy taste in his throat. Without turning back, he chopped off the abdominal foot with a knife, but he no longer cared about the other two Zergs that pounced on him in front of him.
"Lieutenant General!!"
"No……"
The roars of colleagues were heard in my ears.
In this brief yet seemingly infinitely long final second, Lian An closed his eyes tightly and said in a hoarse voice, "Sir, I will follow you in the next life."
Puff... bang~
"No need for the next life, just be my slave in this life."
He felt a strong hand holding him up and steadying him, and heard a familiar voice in his ears.
The man's usual lazy tone.
Lian An suddenly opened his eyes and saw Chu Yi's face.
"Sir!" He blinked hard. Am I dreaming?
"Don't wink at me." Chu Yi smiled nonchalantly, "I already have someone I love, Lieutenant General Lian An."
Lian An: “…”
I'm really not used to adults like this. I'm touched, but... let's give him back the old adult.
"grown ups……"
"My Lord General!"
Chu Yi glanced at the few former soldiers around him who were in a state of disarray, and put away his nonchalant expression. He said solemnly, "Thank you for your hard work. The Rose Army is proud of you."
Behind him, artillery fire exploded and the Zerg's wails resounded through the sky.
Chu Yi saluted Lian An and the others, then softened his expression and said in a way that left no room for misunderstanding, "I'm here to take you home."
Months of hard fighting, continuous casualties, the departure of familiar people one after another, the deep invasion into the heart of the occupied area as if abandoned, several days of sleepless nights, the final fight, the sadness of being at the end of one's strength... none of these could crush the nerves of these people.
But just because of Chu Yi's ordinary words, their eyes suddenly became wet.
Thank goodness, we weren't abandoned. The adults came to take us home.
