"I did it to save the country......

Red Pupil hugged Martha's cold corpse, looking at the corners of her mouth that were still slightly upturned, and the tears could no longer stop flowing.

"It's weird, I'm not happy at all......"

Longxi Village, training base.

"The mortality rate of the first mission is very high." Gozzi said, the anger in his voice unindestructible, "but that's just a hypothesis." But if you look at the state of your mission, Tsukushi is missing! ”

"And it's not just that he's missing, he's gone, along with his precious vassal [Prometheus]. See for yourself, you are an elite assassination team selected through special selection, and you have been trained by me, and you can't even handle a single prisoner, what can the empire expect you to do in the future! ”

"One by one, they dare to be pretentious, and they don't look at what they look like!"

Everyone is enduring and worried, how can Tsukushi be gone?

Was there something wrong?

As for defection, no one has yet thought of such a possibility.

After all, they are all companions who have lived together for several years, and this trust is still there.

"Uncle Gozzi, didn't you say that the targets of this mission are all within our reach? Wouldn't there be too much danger? Loya said in a deep voice, as if thinking about something.

He is the only one here who does not have the closeness that he has cultivated since childhood, and he is not particularly afraid of Gozzi's authority.

And only he can question Gozzi's words.

There is another one who also dares to speak out, that is, the original No.1 Nahasiu.

"Father, this incident is strange. According to Tsukushi's strength, even if he can't kill the opponent, it shouldn't be a problem to escape, unless, a third party intervenes. ”

"Haha, you're very perceptive." Gozzi turned his anger into joy, "I just went to see the battlefield where Tsukushi was, and only the body of that damn fugitive remains, and there is no trace of Tsukushi. However, there were indeed traces of fierce fighting at the scene. ”

"Well, that is to say......" Loya replied thoughtfully.

"Could it be that someone else really knows about our mission?" Green pushed his glasses and made a look of erudition, expressing the doubts in everyone's minds.

"It seems that this should be the case." Nahasiu nodded affirmatively.

"Tsukushi shouldn't reveal the secrets of the assassination team." Cornelia added that she wanted to rebuild confidence in Tsukushi.

"That said, Tsukushi should have been caught. The situation is not optimistic. Gozzi cupped his chin and reminded, his voice turning cold, "But whoever dares to hurt my children will make them pay!" ”

"All members of the assassination team are on orders." Gozzi announced the mission in a loud voice, "There is a temporary additional mission, and all the staff will be dispatched to find Tsukushi's whereabouts and rescue her from the enemy." If you can't do anything, kill them on the spot to prevent leaks. ”

"Father......" Akatomi cares about her good friend Tsukushi abnormally, and almost can't imagine such a thing as killing her, feeling that this is beyond the scope of her own bearing, and wants to prevent the implementation of this order.

Gozqi understood what Red Hitomi was thinking, patted Red Hitomi's shoulder, and said with a pleasant face: "Red Hitomi, haven't you already suffered a big loss here?" Keep an eye on the road ahead. Don't be soft on anyone who might be an enemy, even if he's your companion, not even me. Your gentleness will sooner or later become your fatal wound. Now, learn to calm down your mind first, be cruel to yourself, long pain is better than short pain, and the current ruthlessness is to prepare you for better completion of tasks in the future. ”

Gozzi probably wouldn't have imagined that this sentence would eventually become his talisman!

"Red Eyes, Uncle Gozzi is right. It's time for you to wake up, you're a killer, not an ordinary person. Feelings are an existence that can only be hoped for for every killer, and you can't be bound by it. It's time to cut off. You're still obsessed with when! Do you have to wait until you are covered in bruises to admit it! Luo Ya also eagerly dissuaded, not wanting the next time she saw the red pupils, her body would be covered with more scars that would not have appeared.

Every scar was shocking, irritating Loya's eyes, even if she didn't want to admit it, she still had to say that she had been deeply attracted to this tough and gentle girl.

I don't want to see her hurt anymore, I don't want to see her struggling and tired anymore.

"However, Tsukushi ......" Red Hitomi was still very hesitant and couldn't make up her mind.

"Miscellaneous fish, it's time to wake up. This kind of thing happens to our assassins sooner or later. Your life is important, don't you want to see your sister again? Aren't you afraid that your actions will cause her to survive alone? Nahasiu couldn't stand it anymore, as cold as he could say such comforting words.

"Red Hitomi, don't worry. Tsukushi will be fine, we came out to save her. Green also persuaded, secretly adding in his heart, I won't let you have anything to do.

"Red Eyes......" Cornelia wanted to say something, but couldn't.

"Okay, let's be optimistic, we are people from the elite group, we are people who will become heroes of the empire in the future, how can we be planted in such a place? Even if we have our current strength, looking at the world, it can be regarded as the top, what's so scary? At first glance, it was the statement of Guy, a man with developed limbs and a simple mind, that a womanizer would not change for the rest of his life, and at this time he did not forget to peek at the helpless Cornelia on the side.

Well, this body, this face...... It's perfect, what a stunner.

Guy swallowed.

"Come on, everyone, Bonnie can't wait!" The energetic girl Bonnie is already eager to try.

"Alright," Gozzi said, "the additional mission starts now!" ”

Next to the big lake next to Longxi Village. Except for the old man's body, there was no other suspicious object.

The squad here is made up of Loya, Nahasiu, Green, and Red Hitomi.

"Indeed, as Uncle Gozzi said, Tsukushi successfully completed the mission." Loya whispered as he lifted his head on the riverbank.

"Hmph, big miscellaneous fish, you don't look at what kind of training we have received, how can this kind of task not be completed?" Nahasiu asked rhetorically.

"Of course, but we all know Tsukushi's strength, how could she be captured without resistance? How strong the other side will be. Green nudged his lenses and pinpointed the most crucial part.

"Naturally, Tsukushi's strength is undoubted, but being caught by the other party is not just a possibility ......that the opponent's strength is too strong," Luo Ya had a clue.

"You mean to say......" Green thought as well.

"That's right. Judging from the fierce battle here at that time, Tsukushi must have fought hard with the target, and the mental and physical consumption was huge. In addition, she had just completed her first mission, and her nerves were a little relaxed, and she was exploited by others. Loya explained.

"It's possible, if the opponent is a killer who is good at lurking...... It has an absolute advantage for Tsukushi, who has little experience. Green also voiced his opinion.

"In this way, the other party will definitely not have a real overwhelming advantage, otherwise none of us should survive in the process of completing the first task independently." Although Nahaxiu didn't want to admit it, he wouldn't deny that he couldn't take Tsukushi unscathed, and Loya couldn't do it.

Even, under the suppression of Tsukushi's [Prometheus] long-range firepower, Gozqi, who has the emperor Gu [Murayu], has to pay a certain price in order to take her.

This is the suppressive effect of ranged weapons.

However, those who use ranged weapons have a fatal drawback, which is that they lack attack power in melee combat, and they are extremely vulnerable to opponents.

Tsukushi's disappearance must have something to do with the opponent's closeness.

Because everyone was so busy with their own cultivation that they ignored that Tsukushi's vassal [Prometheus] was the only ranged weapon among their vassal tools. This has created a misunderstanding of thinking, and Tsukushi's melee level is measured by his own melee level. Therefore, it led to the misjudgment of the opponent's strength just now.

"This shows that the strength of the other side is not as strong as we think." Green speculated.

"It should be like this, but it can't be ruled out that the other party didn't use all his strength to deal with Tsukushi." Luo Ya is still relatively old-fashioned, and he is a child who has experienced the battlefield.

"But, even so, we haven't confirmed where the enemy is." Nahasiu said, his eyes fixed on the other two, expecting them to answer.

"The question ......," Green pondered.

"It's not that troublesome at all, your mind is too imprisoned." Loya laughed playfully, "After all, this village was originally set up to train you. ”

"What did you say?" Nahasiu and Green were taken aback, what did that mean.

Although he had long doubted it, he didn't expect Luo Ya to say it so directly. Nahasiu meditated.

Created for our training? What do you mean? Could it be ...... Green also understood.

The three of them glanced at each other meaningfully, and stopped discussing the topic they had just discussed.

The red pupils on the side were already immersed in the sentimentality of Martha and the worry of Tsukushi's disappearance, and they didn't notice what the three of them had just said. Of course, even if she hears it, with her dull thinking ability, she probably won't be able to figure it out.

Gazing at the snowflakes flying in the sky, the pure color is full of the last mercy of the heavens for this world.

A baptism washes people's decaying souls. In the swing back and forth, how many people feel the powerlessness of life and their own resentment. How many people rose up and rebelled, moving forward for their original dreams. Drifting away on the tortuous road full of thorns, leaving their own deep footprints and leading the arrival of change. The confinement of the mind was truly loosened at this moment......

It is foreseeable that in the near future, the rise of the revolutionary army has become the trend of the situation in the empire, and there is its inevitability.

Every change is the dialectical unity of history and society, and it has played a vital role in promoting the evolution of the times.

However, Red Hitomi didn't think of it that much.

She's just paying tribute to Martha, worrying about Tsukushi, and missing her sister Black Hitomi, who she hasn't seen for years......

The other three finally noticed the strangeness of the red pupil, which had not yet come out of the self-blame of the incident.

How to comfort her, do you want to tell her that cruel reality? That way, she will be more miserable, sometimes it is not a good thing to know too much, but ignorance is a kind of happiness.

Not wanting to see the girl's uncomfortable expression again, Loya and Green both shook their heads.

Nahaxiu understood what the two of them were thinking, sighed in a low voice, and stopped the idea of telling the red pupil the truth.

Companions are meant to be guarded, not harmed.

I still can't be as ruthless as my father.

I may not be able to reach his heights in my life, but I have no regrets, I Nahasiu will not destroy the hard-won bonds with my companions for my own selfish desires, and everything that stands in our way, no matter what it is, I will cut them off and use the [Water Dragon Sword] in my hand!

"Red Pupil ......" Luo Ya gently called Red Hitomi's name, pulling the girl back to reality from her boundless thoughts.

"Are you alright?" Green asked.

"It's fine." Red Hitomi smiled reluctantly, and her eyes dimmed in an instant, "I think it's incredible, when I think Martha is not in this world...... I always feel that if I go to the village tomorrow, she will be in the usual restaurant......"

"Dead life never comes back to life, I have told you many times." Nahasiu said a little indifferently, his eyes surveying the red pupils.

"Yes...... red pupil's eyes drifted, and he felt his own powerlessness.

Life and death are always instantaneous, and I don't have the strength to fight for what I want, what to take to protect the black pupils?

"Father, he also said, you are his pride." Nahasiu turned his head and walked away, comforting his companion in a special way, "Don't overcomplicate those miscellaneous fish, live well." ”

"That kind of thing is something that I'm thinking about with Cornelia and Loya."

"Captain......" Red Hitomi raised her head, which had been lowered, and stared at the figure of Nahasiu leaving.

"He's giving you air, don't get me wrong......," Green said to the red pupil with this useless explanation, "Now we should be thinking about how to get Tsukushi out of it." ”

"Hmm......" Red Hitomi finally showed a slight smile, and the haze in her heart was dispelled by the concern of her partners. The things in front of you are much more important than the things in the past, and a person who is obsessed with the past cannot be a reliable person!

"Let's go." Luo Ya smiled at the red pupil, "Nahaxiu, this guy is so individual......

Luoya's smile is like pure sunshine, he is like a lovely Zhengtai running and catching butterflies in the green fields full of mountain flowers, he has never had those dark pasts, he is a strong man who fights for his life to the sky, confident and arrogant, giving people great encouragement and motivation. His little smile has long been integrated into the soul of Chi Tong in the contact in life, and has become a symbol and a mark of Chi Tong's daily habits.

This is not at all like the ruthless boy who came to the base in the first place. Maybe it's because of the red pupils, or maybe it's because he can't hide his tenderness with false cruelty, and he begins to care about his companions.

It turned out that unconsciously, the boy who was out of step with everything had already quietly integrated into the whole, recognized his companions, and was recognized by his peers.

This is Loya, the unique Loya.

"Even if we are in darkness, let our hearts turn to the light." Red pupils silently recited what Luo Ya said to herself, and always felt that there was some special meaning, but she didn't want to think about it, she only felt that Luo Ya was very charming when she said this, did she like him?

The red pupil hurriedly stopped his scattered thoughts, but he couldn't hide the slight flush on his face, like a cute little apple, which made people can't help but love it.

"Wait for me......" Red Pupil trotted to catch up with the two who were walking away.

"Crimson Eyes, wait for me ......" Green chased after Crimson Hitomi's figure.

"Just now, the red pupil was shy of Loya? In other words, Red Hitomi is attracted to Luo Ya, although he expected it, Luo Ya is usually very concerned about Red Pupil's affairs, but if it continues like this, it has nothing to do with me at all...... No, I have to speed up and find an opportunity to show my heart to the red pupil, whether it will be fulfilled or not depends on the will of God, at least I can't let my love die in my heart. Even if you die before you start, it's better than regretting it later. Well, that's it......" Green analyzed inwardly, secretly making up his mind.
