Chapter Thirty-Seven: Cannonballs and the Self

Time flew by, and it was the end of October 849.

The combat training course has ended, and after the physical training in the morning, it is the military theory class, not only to learn theory, but also to operate and maintain the artillery. Reinforcement and patrol of the walls.

In the open space outside the training corps' station, a row of cannons was placed, and an instructor stood in front of everyone: "As a soldier, learning to use artillery is also a must, ordinary cannonballs can stop the giant's action." The howitzer is powerful enough to kill giants, but although it has been improved many times, the accuracy is still very low......"

After the instructor finished talking about the power and use of various shells, he told everyone how to maintain and maintain, and personally tried how to operate and what precautions there were.

"Okay, you start to operate by class, if you don't understand, just ask, be careful not to hurt people." After the instructor finished speaking, he signaled that everyone could start, and some of the male trainers were a little impatient, this is the actual operation of the cannon.

There were a total of 8 cannons on the field, and five people from the 7 squad were trying to fire shells on a battery.

Neil put a normal cannonball into the chamber of the cannon, and Rob was about to pull the lead.

"Cover your ears." Wren spoke to a somewhat restless Khrista, who found the goddess unaccustomed to the roar of cannonballs.

"Hmm." Khrista covered her ears with her hands.

"Bang!" There was a loud bang, and the cannonball bombarded the open space in front of him, bringing up a cloud of smoke and dust, Wren only felt that his head was buzzing, this cannon was not very powerful, but it was really loud!

Really thunder and rain small!

Yumir shook his head and scolded: "Damn, I'm almost deafened." ”

Only then did Hrista take her hand away and breathe a sigh of relief.

After a few more operations, the training of their class was completed, and it took about one and a half hours from familiarizing themselves with the use of the cannon to overhauling.

Because there are only 8 guns, the 42 squads can only be divided into six groups of people to operate in turn, and there are still 34 squads in the queue behind.

After Wren's class went down, the second batch of 8 classes began to go, and at this time, someone came to ask Herista for advice after training, and Herista ran to help with a smile.

Seeing Hrista endure the loud roar of artillery fire, force a smile, and enthusiastically help guide everyone on how to operate, Wren frowned, this girl is very sick.

"Don't you care?" He said to Yumir.

Touching her forehead with her hand, Ymir had a headache: "I can't care, she always shows a keen to help people, even if she can't stand the loud sound of the cannonballs, but as long as someone asks her, she has to go up to help others, there are many similar things, I can only teach those guys who have to inch in and have ulterior motives, but there are some things I am not qualified to call the shots for her." ”

"Really?" Wren watched this scene expressionlessly, and after a moment, he couldn't stand it anymore, and went straight to pull Hrista back.

"Wren, what's wrong?" Pulled back, Hrista looked at Wren suspiciously with big blue eyes.

Looking down slightly at Hrista, Wren persuaded: "If you don't like to do something, don't force yourself, they can ask the instructor." He wasn't against Hrista helping people, and if she enjoyed it, he would never be nosy, but she couldn't stand the loud sound of the artillery fire, and forced herself to help others.

Hrista hesitated: "But they asked me for help, I should ......"

Interrupting Hrista, he said bluntly: "You don't need to live like others need, you should know that many people call you a goddess, and everyone likes you." ”

After a pause, Wren said in a deep voice: "But I don't like it, I don't like you like this." It makes me feel awkward. ”

Khrista was a little panicked: "Sorry, did I do something wrong?" ”

Wren shook his head: "No, in fact you did everything well, everyone praised you, but are you happy yourself?" Why do you have to smile softly at those guys every time, if you don't like it or don't want to, you can completely let them fuck off! ”

"I ...... But...... We should be kind to others and help each other. "Khrista was a little overwhelmed.

"You're right, there's nothing wrong with that. I'm not going to tell you anything, but I hope that from today onwards, don't push yourself anymore, at least try to say no to the things you don't want to do, the favors you don't want to help, can you do it? Wren was rarely gentle.

Christa's eyes dodged, and she lowered her head and was silent.

Yumir's expression was helpless, holding her hands on her chest, she hadn't been persuaded yet, but it was useless.

"Wren, I'm sorry, I want to ask, do your parents like you?" Christa looked at Wren with red eyes.

Slightly stunned, Wren didn't understand why the goddess suddenly asked this, when he was still on earth, his mother was similar to Rang Bao's mother. As for Karen, an orphan, that's why he felt like he was going against the sky at the time.

And the identity of Wren is a little more complicated.

"Dad, why did we use fake surnames before? Why would anyone bother us? Eight-year-old Wren looked at his father with a sigh on his face.

Touching little Wren's head, Wren's father said, "I don't know, we are just a separate family of the Ackerman family, maybe our family knows a little more." "As a person who follows his own heart (cowardice), he has long been incognito, and it is estimated that everyone in his family thinks he is dead. There is no way, there are always Diao people who want to harm him.

"What about my mother?"

"Alas, your mother was weak and died of illness shortly after giving birth to you." Wren's father had a look of vicissitudes.

When the family was in the middle of the road, the clansmen fled in all directions, he ran directly out of the Wall of Sheena, came to the territory of the Wall of Rossy, hid all the way to Tibet, and gradually came to the southern edge of the Wall of Rossy, and he didn't know when it started, no one came to trouble again, when he found this, he had been fighting wits and courage with the air for many years!

Of course, this kind of thing can't be said to his son, it will damage his tall image in front of his son, he actually admires a certain cousin, that is a Gou Emperor, when they ran away from east to west, in fact, there were few people left, and the benevolent brother told him that he would go all the way to the south, to hide in the southernmost district of Higansina on the wall of Mary!

It's his brother, he can really run!

Wren's father didn't know that the cousin, whom he admired very much, was stabbed by a trafficker in the end, and he didn't make it to the finale, and he received a boxed lunch a few years before him.

Wren came back to his senses and looked at Hrista: "It's okay, how can a mother not like her child?" ”

Khrista looked at Wren in a daze: "Really? Every book says that my mother loves her children, but my mother doesn't love me, she wants me to die. She remembered that on that farm, the first time she mustered up the courage to throw herself into her mother's arms, she was pushed away, and her mother said she wanted to kill her.

There was a sudden silence in the atmosphere, and Ymir looked at Hrista in shock, she didn't know about it before.

Sighing, Renne, who was a little shaken in his heart, looked at Khrista with pity: "So, she just gave birth to you, she is not your mother, how you live has nothing to do with her." I don't want to preach anything to you, motherhood is not only a blood tie, she is also a responsibility. ”

Khrista began to weep, but Ymir did not speak, and held her tightly in his arms.

Rob and Neil were surprised, they didn't know who Khrista was, but they were shocked to hear that her mother wanted her to die, which was too cruel for Christa, who was still a little girl at the time.

Wren, who had a somewhat indifferent expression, looked at Rob and Neil: "I heard it, pay attention in the future, we can't control many things, and we can't make decisions for Christa, but if there are those guys who take advantage of her kindness, flatten them and let them roll round!" ”

"Yes!" The two nodded.

The shelling continued, and the conversation here was only heard by the people of the 7th class.

Wren is not the strongest and is not a life coach, and after that, Christa is still a gentle, lovely, and helpful goddess, but at least she has learned to refuse the things she doesn't like to do and don't want to help.

Ymir was more protective of the goddess, and she didn't care if she didn't understand her, even if Hrista didn't understand her.

It's a world that can't be beaten, and life has to go on no matter what.
