Chapter 126: The End of Memories
The flat country pastures were abandoned because of the war, which seemed to be doing quite well. The wide pastures are overgrown with weeds due to unmanaged and grazing. Lost from the human race, it became a gathering place for hares, foxes and rodents. With no shortage of food and water sources, these guys are always one of the fastest to reproduce.
"Boom !!"
The sudden explosion sound in the ground made the guys who were still playing in the grass run back to the cave, followed by a roar, which made them have a more intuitive feeling in the underground, and had to run out again, scurrying in the grass without purpose.
The sound rang out seven or eight times, and a small hill suddenly arched out of the originally flat ground, and the mountain bag continued to expand, and under the last roar similar to the explosion of explosives, the soil on the hill bag was suddenly blown away, revealing a black hole. When the smoke and dust at the entrance of the cave cleared, a petite figure quickly came out of the hole, and a thick hemp rope was still hanging from his waist. Vigilantly glanced around the entrance of the cave, confirmed that it was safe, quickly untied the hemp rope, pulled out the hammer and iron stake on his back from behind and hit the hole, and after tying the hemp rope only, he shook it a few times and threw it into the hole.
The loose hemp rope quickly tightened, and after a few shakings, after a few shakings, after a while, Luan climbed up from the entrance of the cave, and after nodding to Du Barry, Du Barry turned around and picked up the only one-handed sword that he brought to guard the entrance of the cave, and Lu Ran threw down one end of the hemp rope again, just like the agreed slogan, after the hemp rope in his hand came to the touch of shaking, Lu En pulled the hemp rope hard, and after a while, Ike who was firmly tied to the hemp rope was pulled up. Untie Ike and drop the rope as he had done before, and after a few rounds, when Sarah was pulled up last, Lune sat down with a sigh of relief. It is true that this physical work is not an easy task for an injured person.
"Finally out of that damn place?" Rune gasped in air as he looked at Ike, "What's next?" ā
"Anyway, let's get away from this place and then detonate the explosives underground." Ike replied, "Sivata, what is the farthest detonation distance of the explosives?" ā
"Five hundred sub-moments, no matter how far away the signal is, it will be difficult to receive. Moreover, there are not many explosives, so they can only be detonated at some key structural points. Some rooms may be missed. Sivata surveyed the surroundings and replied, pointing to the north.
"It doesn't matter, just blow up those exits and the main support points, and if they're still alive, it's a good option to starve them to death." Ike lightly made a final death declaration to those who might have survived the colony.
No one retorted, even Sarah, who was a little repulsed at first, was beaten on her hands, and there was no other reaction after that.
After helping each other or carrying them to the calculated position of Sivata, Sivata pressed the switch in his hand. At first, there was no sound, and then a dull murmur rang out from the ground. In the distance, there were constantly large potholes in the grass, and the originally flat grass suddenly became potholes, not at all like the original appearance.
When the low sound of the earth was completely resounded, another half an hour passed, and after the task was basically completed, Ike finally relaxed, and had no strength to move at all. It was not only him who was relieved, but everyone else was also virtuous: "Who else can move?" Ike asked.
"Yes! Master Ike. Du Barry hurriedly responded.
āććć What, is it just you? After a long time of no response, Ike muttered in an imperceptible voice.
"And the old men."
The sudden sound made Du Barry pick up the one-handed sword in her hand without thinking about it, and looked vigilantly in the direction from which the voice came.
In the line of sight, an old man who looked quite old but was still vigorous and unusually strong was standing there, and behind him, an old man who was also a grandmother stood like a shadow behind the sturdy old man without saying a word, with a gentle smile on his kind face.
"Dubarry, put your sword away." Ike looked at Dubarry solemnly and said, looking at the shadowy grandmother with unusual respect, "I'm going to trouble you next, Mistress Beatrice." ā
"Beatrice... Could it be the legend! Yi Yan put away the sword, but Du Barry, who was still looking at the old man vigilantly, suddenly remembered something, and looked at the grandmother loudly in disbelief.
"I said, I'm also a team leader, wouldn't it be too unkind for you to treat you unfairly." The old man at the head seemed quite dissatisfied, and said after sighing. "Even if it's superficial respect, can't I be a little complacent as an old man?"
"Okay, I'll talk about that later." Beatrice interrupted the old man who seemed to be about to talk, and walked up first, and after checking the wounds of Ike and his party in turn, she breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, you are the most seriously injured inside, while the effect of the Holy Spirit Medicine is still there, you must operate as soon as possible." A few of you come over and help" Beatrice beckoned to the grass behind the old man, and two burly men with stretchers quickly appeared from the calf-high weeds, and under Du Barry's shocked look, they carefully pretended to be Ike and the others without saying a word.
"Having said that, this is really powerful, looking at this posture, I'm afraid the stronghold is much bigger than a barracks." The old man glanced at the potholed meadow, his eyes showed a touch of sadness, or disappointment, and after a moment, he said in a low voice, "I didn't expect the rumors to be true, Empire... Empire ... ā
"Well, now is not the time for you to be sad." Beatrice patted the old man's back unceremoniously, saving talents is the first thing, don't go and open the way quickly. ā
"You are the only one who regards a marshal as a pioneer." Van Dijk smiled bitterly, picked up the one-man tall two-handed sword hidden in the grass, and strode forward.

When I opened my eyes, I saw the bright sunlight and white ceiling, and the obvious smell of disinfectant water and the white decoration indicated that this was a room called a ward. Sarah, who had just woken up, looked at this strange place a little inexplicably, and the instant pain in her body made her moan involuntarily.
"Are you awake?" A gentle voice came from outside the white curtain next to the bed, Beatrice opened the curtain and approached Sarah, looked at her face and nodded, "Your injuries are not serious, but you are the last to wake up." ā
"Here it is... Sarah asked, a little dazed.
"My treatment room, for some special reasons, I can't let you live in a bed in the hospital of the army, so I have to put it here." Beatrice replied.
"Army??? Doctor??? Sarah was a little confused.
"If you're looking for Ike, they're gone. And as your reward has been pressed under your pillow. Beatrice replied, "I'm a medic too, and Ike Kid asks me to take care of you." Now I see that you look good, and it seems that you are recovering well. ā
āććć Are they all gone?ććć Touching the weighty envelope under her pillow, Sarah was suddenly confused.
āććć I've heard Ike say that this is the first time you've participated in this kind of mission, right? Looking at Sarah, who looked distracted, Beatrice, who was already well-informed, sighed, "After seeing hell, do you still want to be a hunter?" ā
"I... I... I do not know. Sarah hung her head and whispered.
"The work of a hunter is often accompanied by great risks, and you may have to face an even worse hell in the future, and you don't look like someone who is ready to go to hell."
āććć Doctor. ā
"Just call me Beatrice."
"Lord Beatrice... Have you ever killed someone with your own hands? I mean... People in general. "It seems to have occurred to me that this is a barracks," Sarah added.
"It's really a straight sword." Beatrice smiled wryly, took two cups from the table, washed them, poured hot coffee, handed them to Sarah, and replied, "Killed, and not one or two." Probably the people you have killed in your life are not as many as mine, whether it is saving people or killing people, these hands have experienced it. Beatrice was a little sad, "It is because I realized the preciousness of life that I became a military doctor, although I saved many people, but I am only a doctor after all." Although everyone gave me a terrible name, doctors are not omnipotent, and every time someone dies from me, even if they are used to it, it still makes people feel sad. ā
"Is that so?"
"What about you?" Beatrice looked at Sarah, "Whether it's from your heart or the thoughts you revealed, the profession of a hunter is no longer for you. You're young enough to make a change, and not to spend your life on that dangerous profession, though it was said by an enemy soldier, but it doesn't make sense. ā
"But ... I don't know what to do without everyone. Sarah said at a loss.
āćććććć Also. Beatrice put down the cup, looked at Sarah carefully and sat back in her seat, picked up the paper and pen and worked hard to write, "Although it is the first time for you to participate in this kind of mission, but to be able to join little Ike's team, it must be a good candidate, although that stupid boy always likes to do some dangerous things, but he is really good at recognizing people, plus you are still young now, with unlimited potential, presumably those guys will not give up an excellent seedling." ā
"Wait, wait, Lord Beatrice." Sarah hurriedly interrupted, "IāI don't want to go to the army or anything." ā
"Who said they were going to let you go to the army. The old body is not cold-blooded enough to do such a cruel thing as making a girl give up being a hunter, but then turn around and throw herself into the army. Beatrice put the paper in the envelope, wrote a few words on the title, sealed it, and turned to hand it to Sarah, "I still have some reputation, if you really don't want to be a hunter and have nowhere to go, you might as well try it here"
The neat cover, the mellow pen ink has not dried, and the six words on the big envelope have attracted Sarah's attention for a while. With a hint of suddenness, and a hint of enlightenment. The six words were one by one, quietly knocking on Sarah's heart.
