Chapter 17: I want to help you take on some of it.

There were corpses all the way, and it spread all the way. Some of them lay on the ground, staring at the sky with their godless eyes open, and they could no longer gaze at it; Some lay on the ground and buried their faces in pools of blood, and the scars on their bodies proved their struggle; Some leaned their backs against the trunks of trees, bowed their heads, and met death in silence.

There was silence all the way, and occasionally a few Noxian black-armored soldiers came to clean up the battlefield. If you meet someone who is not yet dead, regardless of the camp, you will stab the spear down and give him relief. An Chen's footsteps were a little stumbling, Galen's awakening skill range was ten meters, and so was her stand-in technique, although she barely escaped from the center, but just the aftermath made her break a few bones.

On the side of the road, Anchen heard the suppressed crying, and turned his head suspiciously to see that a soldier was tearfully stabbing a short knife into the heart of a dying comrade-in-arms. Why is he so sad, maybe the person he killed is his friend, maybe it's a relative. Who knows? No one will ask.

The Noxus soldiers are silent, silently accepting orders, silently completing orders, and leaving silently. They are disciplined, stern and ruthless, and their orders are static. Arguably the best soldier, or arguably the most ruthless.

Anchen was also silent, she understood that she had done what was right for her, but she was also helpless. Back at the position that the vanguard had temporarily set up in the Roaring Swamp, Anchen casually leaned against the Moment Tree and sat down. After the rain, it was sunny, but it was already afternoon, and it would be dark in two hours at most. Anchen sat in the corner, looking at the busy soldiers who were carrying captured weapons and equipment to the position. They also piled up their dead comrades, took off their armor, and heard that they would be cremated in a little longer.

I checked my injuries and they weren't serious. I had some fractures in my right leg and a sprain in my wrist, and then it was gone. An Chen, who is accustomed to the self-healing ability of people in this world, estimated in his heart that it would be fine for a few days of recuperation.

An Chen sat quietly under the tree in a daze, although she won, but her current interest is not high, and she is even a little sluggish. I don't know how long it took, Anchen heard someone calling her, and raised her head in a daze.

It turned out that Rui Wen had returned, and the original pitch-black armor was stained with muddy water, and the heavy sword in her hand was also cut out of the gap. Her silver hair was a little dull and messy, and she was frowning at this point, and the worry in her eyes was obvious, and she was looking at herself.

"Are you hurt?" Rui Wen looked at An Chen and asked.

"Minor injuries." An Chen smiled as if he wanted to reassure Rui Wen and said, "It's just a sprain and a fracture, it's not a big deal." ”

Rui Wen breathed a sigh of relief invisibly, put the heavy sword aside, and sat down beside Anchen: "I can't relax too much these days, Demacia hasn't retreated yet." ”

An Chen looked at the sky in the distance, the sun was about to set, the soldiers were ready to start looking for materials to make a bonfire, everything was calm: "Will there be a war?" ”

Rui Wen looked at An Chen's side face, she knew what An Chen was thinking, and she was the same back then, but she was a soldier and had to accept orders. This is what she has been taught since she was a child, so no matter what it is, whatever it is, as long as it is an order, she will carry it out. Rui Wen nodded: "Yes, there will be." ”

"Rivien." An Chen muttered softly, looking at the gradually sinking sunset: "Why war?" ”

Rui Wen was stunned and silent, and she didn't know how to answer.

The autumn wind blew, and under the tree, two people sat in silence, a heavy sword full of gaps stood on the side, and neither of them spoke.

Rui Wen didn't know how to express her emotions, she sat next to Anchen. She understood that this was just a girl who had been exposed to war for the first time, and she shouldn't have to bear it, war, it was too heavy. After a long time, she spoke slowly: "I will find a way to let you leave and live an ordinary life." ”

An Chen didn't answer, didn't say whether it was good or bad, but asked softly: "Ruiwen, have you ever hesitated?" Ever if you didn't want to continue to take on all this? ”

If someone else asks this, the soldier Rui Wen, the pioneer officer Rui Wen will definitely shake her head firmly, because she is a soldier and a general, and she will definitely not and cannot hesitate.

But when facing Anchen, Rui Wen will laugh and worry, she doesn't want to treat her like her own soldiers. In Ruiwen's eyes, she should be a carefree girl, not a soldier, and she shouldn't fight on the battlefield.

Rui Wen looked at An Chen deeply, looked away at Ban Xiang, and said softly, "Yes." ”

An Chen turned his head to look at Rui Wen, her silver hair hung down in front of her forehead, her dark green pupils stared at the ground, and there was evasion in her eyes for the first time.

"Now." An Chen suddenly said: "Then I don't want to leave." ”

Rui Wen looked at An Chen in surprise.

An Chen smiled slightly, and in Ruiwen's stunned gaze, he lifted the silver hair in front of Ruiwen's forehead and said, "I want to help you bear a part." ”

Yes, Rui Wen is just a girl who has just turned twenty, why should she bear the heavy responsibility of the war.

On the other side, Carter sat in his army's tent, listening to his subordinates' reports. On both sides of the tent stood the two generals who had gone out together this time. A thin man with a huge alchemy bottle behind him, his hair was all gone, his face was covered with torn strips of cloth, and his whole person was gloomy. This person's voice is also surprisingly disgusting, and his eyes reveal a crazy look from time to time. This person is Xinjid, who embarrassed Ruiwen a few days ago.

The other, dressed in a turquoise cloak and a hood on his head, hid in the shadows and said nothing. This Anchen is very familiar, isn't it the perverted hooded man Tyrone.

It's just that at this time, all three of them are listening to the soldiers below.

"General, we have captured a total of more than 2,500 long swords and 2,840 shields this time, and basically defeated all the soldiers who came to attack Demacia this time. More than 2,900 people were killed, and our side lost more than 500 people. Under the account, the half-kneeling soldier methodically narrates the results of the battle.

Carter suddenly raised the wine glass on the table and took a sip: "Hey, what about the captive?" ”

The soldier was stunned, knelt on the ground in silence, looked at the ground, and took a deep breath: "General, and no prisoners." ”

"Is that so?" Carter seemed to sigh, and then reluctantly drank the wine in one gulp: "Then forget it, you go down." ”

"Wait a minute." Sinjid said suddenly, and said to the soldier with some coldness: "I heard that the vanguard officer Ruiwen and her personal guards successfully blocked the two Demacia generals in this battle, Zhao Xin and Galen, so that the fishing net plan was successful, right?" ”

The soldier nodded, "Yes." ”

"Hey, hey." Sinjid smiled sullenly and said mockingly, "Then why don't you kill these two people, or bring them back, but let them go." ”

Carter frowned, looked at Sinjid and said with some unhappiness, "Sinjid, that's enough." ”

Sinjid froze for a moment, looked at Carter's displeased, and shook his head: "Forget it, when I didn't say anything." ”

"You go down first, Sinjid, you can also go and write a war report, and send someone to the main city when you write it." Carter waved his hand, intending to drive the crowd away.

When Sinjid heard Carter ask him to write a report, he said helplessly: "General, the war report should be written by the chief general." ”

Carter's eyes narrowed: "If I ask you to write, you will write, have an opinion?" ”

Sinjid could only scratch his head with few hairs in frustration: "No, no." At the same time, I secretly complained in my heart, God I have a great experiment to complete at night, how can I have time to write a report?

After everyone was gone, Carter sat alone in the tent and drank himself.
