Chapter 1866: The Wheel of the Shining World (Seventy)

A few minutes later, the crowd got into the van that had left the 51st military facility. Although the Sphinx team came to play, it was a military restricted area, and it was really not a free thing to enter and exit.

What's more, the Sphinx team suffered heavy casualties in this game, and some players came in vertically and went out sideways.

Sitting in his seat, feeling the discomfort of the metal seat and the bumps in the car, Albert clutched his badly injured and bandaged shoulders while his eyes fell on his teammates on stretchers in the truck.

Heavy casualties...... Seems like a misnomer. There were many wounded, and many were seriously injured, but there were none.

Despite this, the situation in front of Albert is still an extremely miserable situation.

Shane, the cat-man boy lying there, no longer has arms. The arm was frozen from the part close to the shoulder, and then shattered, and now the broken pieces of meat can only be frozen and stored in utensils to keep them from necrosis, and Shane's part from the shoulder is also wrapped in heavy bandages, and it is temporarily frozen with ice cubes, and it is estimated that he will not be able to move easily until he is surgically attached to these two arms. The cat-man boy with an oxygen mask on his face seemed to be sleeping peacefully, which was of course the effect of deep anesthesia.

The other main player of the Sphinx team, the leopard man Philios, is not much better. It should be said that Philios's injury is the most serious, if it weren't for Philios' own strong self-healing ability, he probably wouldn't have survived at all. The leopard man Philaeos used his whole body to block the opponent's attack, and as a result, he suffered extremely severe cryo damage, and the part of him starting from his chest was frozen and shattered. In fact, Philios' chest was completely shattered, his entire body was divided into parts above his neck and below his abdomen, and his chest and shoulders, which were broken into countless pieces, were stored in some kind of container to prevent necrosis, and the rest of Philios's body was completely immersed in some kind of improvised life-sustaining device (resembling a giant blood bag) to prolong his life. Whether he can be saved or not is still unknown.

Center Gusta isn't much better either. Although the cryo damage to his chest was not as severe as that of Phileus, the flesh on Gusta's chest was cracked, a severe injury that could be seen in the ribs, as if he had been clawed by some terrifying monster. Although Gusta is the strongest in the entire team, his self-healing ability is far less powerful than that of Philios, and this level of serious injury is still very dangerous. Lying on a stretcher, although his chest was covered with bandages, blood was still gushing out, and the dying tiger man Gusta couldn't help but make people worry.

Then, as a flag in the Second Army that had been hidden, the Leopard Man boy Elliott was not much better. He really broke his leg this time, and the result of the overly strong foot force and the forced sprint over a long distance was to shatter all the muscles and bones in his leg and explode. Albert didn't know how it worked, but he knew that Elliott's injury was almost fatal, and even if it could be cured, only God knew how long it would take to walk in the future.

One by one.

Using his body as a consumable is just to make this team win the game, and to satisfy the interests of the Sphinx dad behind this team.

Albert also suffered a shoulder injury, but it was force majeure that caused him to suffer this shoulder injury due to an unexpected event in the middle of the game.

The rest of the Sphinx team is the opposite, knowing that they will be injured, or even die because of it, but they still do what they want to hurt.

The Sphinx players were too poisoned. For the sake of Daddy Sphinx, they can choose to die on their own.

It was this that made Albert very unhappy.

Albert suddenly realizes something, and turns to check on the condition of the young cat-man Mutt.

"Whew. The cat-man boy who had just taken off his heat-insulating gloves was breathing at his hands.

"Are you alright?" Albert asked, concerned.

"No, it's fine, my fingers are a little frozen. The cat boy replied, continuing to smack his hand a few times. He had been wearing heat-insulating gloves to grab the ball with the opponent just now, although in the process of grabbing the ball, he only indirectly came into contact with the cold of the bose condensate, and there was also the protection of the heat-insulating gloves, but part of the cold air seemed to still pass through the surface of the ball, and then through the heat-insulating gloves, eroding the fingertips of the cat-man boy. The pink balls of flesh on the cat's paws were a little blue-purple and swollen.

"When did you start meow?" Seeing this, Albert's eyes couldn't help but widen with excitement: "From the first time you grabbed the ball, you felt that your fingers were freezing and painful? So, you've been patient?"

"Nothing. At first, I couldn't feel anything, and I didn't even know that my fingers were frostbitten. And...... It's not very serious, is it?" the cat man snorted at his little palm again: "Oh, it's a little pinprick stinging." ＂

"Hmm------" Bruises began to pop out of Albert's forehead, "That's right, you didn't notice anything about it in the middle of the game, and you didn't realize that your fingers were frostbitten until the game was over." Very good. ＂

"But it's true...... The cat man muttered.

"Alright, needless to say. Albert interrupted. He knew that it would be useless to continue talking to Mutter, and Mutter would definitely deny it.

For the sake of Daddy Sphinx, this kind of thing is nothing at all.

At the same time, the truck transporting the team members also stopped, presumably in front of the sand boat in the port.

"Alright, let's go back to the sand boat. Special care should be taken when transporting the wounded. Captain Shiloma commanded.

Suppressing his anger, Albert followed the rest of the team out of the car. Then he couldn't take it anymore and his temper suddenly exploded: "I'm sorry, I can't go back with you." I...... I have to go. ＂

Shiloma frowned, "What? are you going to go back to Egypt alone from here?"

"Yes. Albert looked at Captain Shiloma with a gloomy face: "Don't wait for me, you can go back to Egypt by sand boat." I can't stay with you anymore, and I'm going to throw up if I stay any longer. ＂

"Why are you ------," the werewolf Redlich tried to dissuade Albert.

"Shut up, I don't want to hear it. Albert said angrily.

Words can't actually express the anger and grievance in Albert's heart at the moment. But if he didn't use his clumsy mouth to say what he had to say, he probably wouldn't be able to let go.

"I don't care what your reason is, all you do is make me sick. You're a bunch of crazy people who can sacrifice everything if you can win the game. You are a bunch of crazy people who can sacrifice your own lives as long as you can repay Daddy Sphinx. Sacrificing one's life to repay one's kindness seems like a noble act, but I still can't agree with it.

So, I don't have anything to say to you guys, so be it, goodbye. ＂

"Mr. Albert...... ＂

"Wake up. The Sphinx just treats you like a pawn that can be sacrificed at any time. Albert did not listen to Mutter's persuasion, but replied, "You can die for him." But even if you die, I guess he won't even frown.

I don't care what you've been through before, or how much he's done you. I only know that no matter how great a favor is, it is not worth giving away your life that you have so hard to pick up.

------You have to cherish yourself, little fool. ＂

After saying that, Albert walked away without looking back, from the outer wall of the 51st Military Restricted Zone, along the endless desert.

That's right, for Albert, the rest of the Sphinx team, he doesn't care at all. But Mutter is another matter. Leaving aside the fact that Mutter might be Ruff's brother, even if Mutter and Luff were not related by blood, the bond between Albert and Mutter was too deep for him to stand to watch the cat man die like this.

Mutter's life is his own, whether he wants to die or survive, it can only be done by Mutter's own will, Albert has no way to change the mind of the cat man.

All he could do was here, arguing with the Sphinx and questioning them. He thought it would make Mutt reflect.

The next time, perhaps, when Mutter wants to sacrifice himself for the victory of the Sphinx, the stupid cat-man boy will hesitate for a second more because of what Albert did today.

"Wait, don't ------ like that" Albert hadn't gone far yet, and Mutter, who had recovered from his stupe, just wanted to chase after him.

"Don't chase it. The werewolf Redlich stopped: "Since the ideas are different, we can't force him to accept it." Just let him calm himself down. ＂

"But...... ＂

"What's the use of you going along? persuade him to come back, get him to agree with what we're doing? It's useless. ＂

Only this sentence, the cat man boy can't refute. Some contradictions can never be reconciled.

Redlich sighed and continued, "Don't you know what's going on out there right now? If he were alone, he might still be able to take care of himself. But if you follow along, not only will it not help, but it will become a burden to him. ＂

"But I can't just let him wander the Angolan border?!" Mutter said urgently, "what if he is attacked by the Assassins?

"He'll be fine. Shiloma said indifferently, as if she had other plans.

At the same time, Albert, who had already walked far outside the military base, saw a group of people in the distance. Because it was so conspicuous, a tall figure in the group was easily recognized by Albert.

That person is none other than Sphinx Daddy's business nemesis, gangster boss Dat.
