Chapter 105: Turning the Face

Chaos, as if I was dead at the time, there was chaos in front of me, and I was suspended in it without consciousness, just like a vegetative person.

The feeling is so familiar that being in it is completely overwhelmed by the fact that it is not the same as before. In my heart, I have accepted death, but more in the hope that I will be able to go back, back to where I first came.

"Maybe this time, I'll be able to go back!" I consoled myself and let the time pass in the chaos.

I don't know how long it took, but I just felt a tingling pain, as if it was burning in my chest.

"Holy! Not again! "It hurt so much that I almost cursed, and when I opened my eyes again, my wishful thinking of going back was in vain this time, and I was now in a huge tent, and it was a magnificent sight in front of me, and this small tent was full of people in different armors, both generals and soldiers.

The closest to me was an older doctor, who was removing the reddened charcoal from my bare chest with a copper clip, piece by piece.

The horrible wound on the abdomen from being burned was unacceptable enough, but now that there was a large lump on the chest, the feeling was even more painful.

With the help of his assistant, the old military doctor prepared everything, hastily dressed and bandaged the herbs for me, and then bowed slightly behind me.

As if he had received permission, he bowed his head slightly, and then walked out of the tent with his assistant. His back flashed, and I saw all the heads and faces of the army, yes, I mean, most of them were high-ranking officers in splendid armor, and at the same time, I saw only two soldiers coming up and erecting my bed so that I could see the faces of all of them.

The scene was very serious, dozens of pairs of eyes stared at me tightly, all of them did not say a word, and I had a little fear in my heart, I didn't know what they were going to do to me, anyway, they didn't want me to die prematurely now.

"Say, Aurius. Luga! ”

The cold voice sounded among the officers I was facing, and I looked for it, but what I didn't expect was that the person who spoke up was Anthony, who had been giggling at me and Andrew. At this time, he was boringly cleaning his nails, and he didn't raise his head, and his attitude changed nearly 180 degrees. He sat on richly decorated chairs, two of which sat Aetius, and behind him stood a number of generals in ornate armor. There was also a bearded man, dressed in religious robes and holding a cross, who must have been a priest, and behind him stood several robed retinues. Such a scene is not like a condolence for my escape from death, but more like a trial, a judgment for my sins.

"Say what?"

I think this Anthony must be joking with me, my injury is not healed yet, what does it mean that so many people are coming to me?

"I hope you don't play dumb with me, Aurius. Luga! Anthony's tone was so cold that it almost came out, and his eyes were fixed on me, and the cold light from those eyes almost made me look up and down. I've never seen such a guarded look on his face, and I can't even tell if it's real or fake. Especially at the end, he pronounced my name one by one like a broken bean, which was quite a warning.

"I don't understand what you're talking about!"

I really didn't understand what Anthony meant, so I said it bluntly, just to get Antony not to beat around the bush with me in front of Aetius and the priest. The pain in my chest didn't go away, and the blood loss made me weaker at this time, so I didn't speak loudly.

"Aurius. Luga! Anthony slowly got up, walked up to me, leaned down, and came face to face with me, his expression cold, and there was a hint of ruthlessness in it, as if to tell me that he was not joking.

"Tell me, where is your chief centurion, Guy!"

"I don't know!"

I told the truth: "I was seriously injured and collapsed before he disappeared, and I didn't see where Guy went!" ”

"Oh~ I see." Anthony's tone revealed a suspicion that could not be hidden, and he beckoned behind him, and the soldier standing behind his seat understood, took a long pole, and handed it to Anthony. Anthony slammed the long pole into the ground in front of me.

"Come, see, what is this?"

I followed Andrew's fingertips upwards and saw golden twin flags, covered in blood.

"Aurius. Luga! Anthony tilted his head back and almost nostriled at me, and said to me, "As the chief centurion and the standard-bearer of the Fourteenth Twin Legion, you have the reason and mission to ensure the safety of your supreme commander, but what? Even this flag was taken back from the hands of those barbarians! ”

"You're saying that we survivors are fully responsible for Guy's disappearance?"

Absurd, what Anthony was trying to convey sounded particularly absurd and ridiculous at this time.

"Yes, that's exactly what I wanted!" Anthony replied casually, as if everything was under his control.

Then, holding the blood-stained twin flags, he waved his robe and turned around, striding in front of Aetius and the priest.

"Yes, gentlemen." Antony pointed at Aetius and the priest and said, "I can now declare, Aurius. Luga's escape caused the 14th Twin Legion to lose its chief centurion, Guy. This is a high-ranking officer, and it is not an exaggeration to say that this is a betrayal! As he spoke, he turned his back to me and faced the priest who was holding the golden cross.

The priest nodded as if they were complicit with each other, but Antony ignored Aetius a little. Aetius didn't say a word, but sat lazily in his seat, silently watching Antony.

"Very well, since Generalissimo Aetius has no objection to Bishop Garba, then we will execute Aurius in the name of the Senate. Luga! ”

As he spoke, he turned his right hand to his left, and his free right hand drew his iron sword from the scabbard at his waist and aimed it at my neck, resting it on my shoulder, the sharp blade almost sinking into my flesh.
