The Divine Favor Chapter 23 Goodbye. Good bye!
After Colin explained, he went back to his great work of spreading the light of God.
After Oss knew that after the bet, he really felt that he had promised Qing Er Ye a little hastily before, but it had already happened, and it was useless to regret it. His personality is a bit of a bachelor's nature, and it's a big deal that he will hide in the Holy Punishment Hall in the future, and after a few prayer years, things will always ease up.
It's useless to think too much, turn your head to look at the scenery.
Oss raised his glass, and drank the wine in the cup with his head tilted his head in the starlight and light.
He misses her a little.
Before, it was separated by yin and yang, but now it is separated by two worlds. Although the distance between the two seems to be getting farther and farther away in terms of distance, she has always lived in his heart, and Oss has always believed that the two will meet again one day.
I don't know if it's the effect of alcohol, or if the longing is too strong, Oss returned to that time and space in a trance in the same night, and those bits and pieces of getting along with the two of them surged out from the depths of his heart.
The two met on the day he was introduced by a friend to join her mercenary team.
It was a light rain, which was very unusual in Africa, so he remembered it well.
Her long, brown hair, slightly damp, pressed against her slightly baby-fat cheeks. Friends introduced each other, and the two shook hands and said hello, shaking hands for a minute as she tested his strength. Then, she took a shot, and three rounds later, he went down.
Later, after getting acquainted, he learned that at first she was dissatisfied with him, thinking that he was too weak, but fortunately his firearms were outstanding, and this was the future.
The two are familiar with each other because of a squatting.
The scorching sun scorched the cracked earth, there was no trace of birds and beasts, and as far as the eye could see, there was an earthy yellow, without any greenery, which made people feel hot and dry.
Dressed in the same camouflage uniform as their surroundings, he and she crouched in the same cluster of thorns, monitoring a militant stronghold and collecting information about it.
The task was simple, and the two of them were able to accomplish it quickly. But you can't leave right away, you have to wait until after dark.
At that time she was the captain of the team, and he was a minor mercenary under her. Somehow, he wanted to tease her at the time. This kind of thing was supposed to be against the rules, but he just did it, maybe he would have liked her a little bit, who made her round baby fat face so cute.
Now that I think about it, he was very noisy at that time, and kept whispering all kinds of jokes that he thought were funny, and finally, she responded to him with a "shut up!".
So he obediently shut up, but he immediately pulled out a well-preserved water bag with a clean soft straw from his bosom.
He had long noticed that her water bag had cracked and stained, and that her beautiful and unthinkable lips were no longer moist and had dried and cracked.
She gave him a deep look and didn't immediately take the water bladder. After staring at each other for about ten seconds, before he could speak, she reached for the water bag, turned her head and drank the sweet water in the water bag with a straw in her mouth.
He will always remember the touching touch of her lips when she gently stuck out the tip of her tongue and moistened her lips after drinking.
Later, much later, she returned the water bag to him, which she had kept all along, with a smiling face drawn with a pen on it. At that time, the relationship between the two was already close.
The mutual trust between the two was due to one of his suggestions.
As a team leader, she not only needs to be strong, but also needs to take care of every member of the team, and she needs to make the right decisions to lead the team to complete the task while minimizing casualties.
She was under a lot of pressure, and although she had always shown herself to be resolute and omnipotent, she was actually only a twenty-three-year-old girl.
On that occasion, the team took on a difficult mission, raiding a military base and freeing ten hostages trapped inside.
The military base is home to a battalion of heavily armed troops, as well as several heavy weapons. A hard attack is definitely not possible, but it is even more unrealistic to want to secretly rescue the hostages without being discovered.
She and the whole team struggled to come up with a perfect plan.
In this case, he came up with a solution. Tens of thousands of wild beasts were driven to storm the military base, and their team took advantage of the chaos to infiltrate the base and successfully rescued the hostages, without losing a single soldier.
In this regard, she praised him in front of the whole team, which made him complain about her many times later.
"Your strength is not good, but your brain is quite good. ”
As a result, he later became her military advisor, sharing a lot of management matters and many decisions for the team for her.
Slowly, she became a little dependent on him.
The intimacy between the two developed by leaps and bounds because of a fight.
In fact, since he joined her mercenary team, she has always been taking care of him, and her strength is really strong, which is completely comparable to the first-class soldier king. In many battles, as one of the weakest members of the team, he was able to stay intact in the midst of danger and bullets, all of which were her intentional or unintentional protection.
The battle was an encounter with an armed force that had a personal vendetta against the team.
One side is a prepared ambush and has the advantage of numbers, and the other side is unprepared. At the very beginning of the battle, the team lost five people. Later, she led several powerful team members to launch a counter-charge against the armed forces in a daring way, attracting firepower, so that the large army could break through, but several of them were trapped in the encirclement by the armed forces.
When the situation was critical, he did not follow the withdrawal of the main army, and shot out of the tunnel where he had been hiding with Gatling in his hand, and detonated the explosives that had just been planted.
Eventually, they broke through and he saved her, but he was mortally wounded.
She took care of him for three months, and during that time, she always liked to hum a song with a few lyrics.
The shadows follow me.
The raging darkness imprisons me.
But I don't let this darkness linger.
Because, you are by my side.
The two confirmed their relationship because of a conversation.
In fact, he and she are both introverted people, and they have never been the active party emotionally. Although the relationship between the two is already very close, due to the personality aspect, as well as the huge difference between him and her in reality, the relationship between the two has not been determined for a long time.
He was ten years older than her, she was much stronger than him, his hometown was far away from hers, and so on and so forth, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on,
That night, the stars twinkled and the night sky was quiet.
He and she lay on their backs on the prairie with their eyes closed, under the stars in the night sky.
She said, "Do you have someone you like?"
He said, "Yes." ”
She said, "Do you have a confession?"
He said, "She is so beautiful and dazzling, so good and independent. I'm very ordinary, very small. Look at this night sky, she is like the moon, and I am like one of the many stars. ”
He actually has low self-esteem.
She was silent for a long time, and then she said something quietly.
"Have you ever thought about whether it is possible that the person you like, she actually secretly likes you. ”
Did he think about it? Actually, he thought about it, and he didn't say it. But he quietly reached out and touched her hand lightly, and she did not refuse.
He held her hand firmly.
He looked sideways at her, and at the same time, she looked sideways at him. That night, that glance, seemed like a thousand years.
The difference between the two is also because of a fight.
The battle was brutal, with more than half of the team killed or wounded. Then, in order to protect him, she was shot several times in the body, and there was no chance of survival.
He hated his own weakness that led to her death.
As she lay dying, he hugged her. She said slowly: "Promise me that you must live well." ”
"I promise you. But you also promised me that you will protect me in this life, and I will protect you in the next life, okay?"
"Good. ”
Later, he avenged her.
Inside the Hall of St. Paul.
The singing, the conversation between the guests, suddenly stopped, and Oss pulled back from his memories.
Oss turned his head to see that several people had entered the hall through the main door and walked directly towards the center of the stage in the hall.
A little away, the crowd also gathered away, blocking Oss's view, so that he could not see the rest of the people clearly, but he could see the tall woman in armor in the lead.
Her face was so beautiful that if Oss were to rate her, she would be worth ninety-five points, and Oss believed that no woman at the banquet tonight would be able to surpass her in this category, not even the best golden cat.
Her temperament is very special, it is the kind of aggressive and decisive killing, and combined with her height that exceeds ordinary people, it is even more heroic. Even in armor, you can see that her figure is bumpy, and her long legs can make all men unable to extricate themselves.
I saw her standing in the center of the hall and slowly said, "I'm sorry everyone, I have something to do temporarily, and I'm late." Let's get straight to the theme of tonight's banquet. ”
After a pause, she continued.
"Signed by His Majesty the Great Pope, the following five persons are considered candidates for this term of Saints of Light. Stuartan, Oscar, Philip, Julia, Oss. ”
With her announcement, four people walked forward one by one, three men and one woman.
Oss knew it was time for him to step forward. But when he saw the fourth candidate, the only woman, he was stunned.
The iconic baby-fat face, similar cold and arrogant temperament, instantly confused Oss's mind again, and he felt that it must be time and space disorder.
Two lines of tears ran across his face, and his eyes burned as he stared at the female candidate, and everyone noticed his strangeness.
Colin hurried up behind him and nudged Oss, urging him to step forward.
"Why are you still crying? Mistress Mary is calling you, you know now that you're scared? You can't go up or not, hurry up, you can't hide." ”
Oss didn't hear what Colin was saying, but walked abruptly, his eyes fixed on the girl named Julia, so that the girl was looking at him with strange eyes.
It turns out that after being reborn and coming to this other world, it will be the next life, it must be like this.
Oss stepped forward and came to the girl. Said softly and gently: "I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I'm finally waiting for you." ”
There was an uproar in the hall, the girl looked stunned, and Colin was dumbfounded.
Qing Erye slapped his thigh: "Little rabbit cub, you are more shameless than me, and you still chase girls like this?"
