When Frost awoke again, the warmth of the flickering flames was dull, except for the orange-red light that stood brighter in the night.

It was a dark night sky, a blizzard was blowing outside the rock shelter, and a half-circle of wooden fences had been improvised outside, barely keeping the starry bonfires from being extinguished. He reached for the campfire, and the insignificant warmth reached his palm, and it became insignificant. Only then did he realize that his GS-91 had been repaired, and that they hadn't been able to leave because of the sudden bad weather.

He propped up his body and looked for the figure of his companion in the humble haven, and the slender figure with scattered silver hair was not difficult to find, after all, it was very conspicuous even in the ordinary population. Silver-haired and yellow-eyed, I don't know if I can find it naturally in the crowd one day, but Luo Lian's victory, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve.

"One day. Wendy said, taking advantage of his distraction moments, to notice that he had woken up, "Sir, I must want to ask how long the time has passed, right?"

That's usually the case...... Frost continued to look around, and in the narrow gap, he could not find the figure of Master Chief Unakin.

"Are you looking for the captain? The captain seems to have found his way down the mountain, came back to light a fire, repaired the fence, and then went out again. When I went out in the morning, he said that he would come back in the evening, but with such a big snowstorm, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back if I want to. ”

That's what he said. But when Yunakin found his way down the mountain, wouldn't he leave alone? Even if he would come back as he said, would he still be alive in such a blizzard?

Suspicions crossed Frost's mind, and when he asked himself, he wasn't surprised that Unakin would choose one of them. It's been a comrade-in-arms for a long time, but Frost feels that he doesn't know Yunakin at all, and his attitude has always made Frost feel very strange, it seems that as a soldier, he cares about his subordinates very much, and he is also very loyal to the motherland.

But he always felt that something was wrong, just like a layer of human skin on the surface of the monster, just a disguise. If he hadn't said what he had intended, Frost would never have been able to figure it out.

"Here, sir. Wendy grimaced over the compressed cookies and jug.

Frost hesitated.

"Captain's order, if you're getting better, it's time to eat. ”

Hearing Wendy say this, he also clearly felt hunger and thirst, so he took the water and food, and ate without hurry.

She was still staring at him, and Frost couldn't ignore her gaze, and his hand movements were forced to stop.

"What's wrong?" Wendy asked.

Frost didn't speak, but took out a whole cookie and placed it in Wendy's hand.

"This?"

He continued to eat a dull dinner, without looking at her directly.

"Give it to me...... Yes?" she asked.

Frost nodded.

"Orders?"

Frost nodded again.

Wendy didn't ask anything, like a robot, she solved the compressed biscuit in three or two clicks, then took a sip of water and swallowed the dry biscuit.

"The chief is a generous man," she said, "give me half of your portion, for the last ration." ”

Frost didn't speak, just shrugged his shoulders.

"It's the first time I've seen the chief's appearance, it's very ordinary. ”

I'm sorry, Frost thought, the nonchalant words sounding harsh, maybe she didn't mean it, but he sounded like he was belittling himself.

At some point, a figure suddenly appeared in the snowstorm and broke into the narrow gap. The white snow covered Unakin's head and shoulders, making him look embarrassed, and he gasped and glanced at each of them before finding his bag and sitting down and opening it.

"Have a good conversation, you two," said Yunakin, "and when you've had enough, go outside and stand guard, Wendy." ”

Frost glanced outside, the blizzard still howling.

"Understood. ”

Wendy's figure is swallowed up by the snow in the night, which seems to be the cover of the earth, but it is the existence that takes away the warmth.

Frost couldn't understand it, but it was the Master Chief's order after all. It's just a different person, and after changing people, he is like sitting on pins and needles.

"Did you give it to her?" Yunakin asked, holding out his right hand and palm facing upwards to show him, the tips of his index and middle fingers stained with cookie crumbs.

Frost was silent, he didn't deny it.

"Heh," Yunakin let out a snort, "I don't think I need to remind you that artificial ligands are something, and we can't even guarantee our own survival right now." ”

Tools, weapons, he himself was tired of listening to himself. He didn't want to listen to Yunakin's arguments, but thankfully he didn't, and instead used a more provocative rhetoric.

"Cannibalism is not undesirable when necessary, Frost. ”

"I'm not going to do that. ”

There was no time to take back the words he blurted out, and Frost realized that he had a very bad expression, and it was too late, and the small voice indicated that the other party had made a quick move.

Yunakin grabbed him by the collar, leaving him almost with his feet off the ground.

"Amazing, speaking for a man-made object, you boy," he said, his voice twisted and furious, "shouldn't you be silent?

That's right, Frost didn't need to think about it, he remembered very well what he had said to Unakin before the war began.

"But if you want to be heard, people will try their best to shout it out, and try to make it heard, so what you say is just a foolish joke, and won't you shout it with all your strength when you call for help?" said Yunakin, "You still have to use this reason to keep silent......"

He didn't resist, his face was like ashes, and there was no expression on his face.

"You're running away, aren't you? You don't dare to admit that your hands are stained with blood, you don't dare to admit that the purpose of your motherland's war is simply to destroy the other side, so you don't want to participate in the war you have to fight as a human being, but as a weapon, a tool. ”

Facing Frost, who was still unmoved even after revealing his true heart, Yunakin's protruding face tensed even more, and then he relaxed again, let go of Frost, and sat down on the ground himself.

Unakin pulled a box of cigarettes out of his previous pocket, took the last one, lit it in front of the campfire, and took a puff in his mouth, exhaling a thick smoke.

"Is it a good magic weapon to malfunction when it encounters a defective tool?" ...... such a thing as a human being," he groaned with a cigarette in his mouth, "it is difficult to get rid of so-called emotions, even temporarily." ”

Is it defective...... Frost lowered his head, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. It's also said that the tool without emotion still asks questions and makes his own opinions, which is a little too noisy.

"As an avenger who swore to crush the Southern Union, I'm a headache if something goes wrong with my weapon, Frost," he continued, "My friend, it seems we're all stupid. ”

Frost listened quietly, and that would be fine.

"However, I will go to the end for revenge, and I can't tolerate Nanlian's crimes, so you can do it yourself. ”

Yunakin stood up and threw the cigarette butt into the fire.

"I'm going to call her back. ”
