Chapter 107: Surviving from the Battlefield
The memories of war are always indelible.
When Lu Qianfan, covered in blood, crawled out of the pile of demonic beast corpses like a small mountain, the soldiers who witnessed that scene could never forget that figure like a hellish ghost.
The bloodied boy ripped off the head of the monster with a pair of fleshy hands. A pair of scarlet eyes looked around, and Sen Ran's killing intent made everyone shudder.
Is he a man, or is he a monster? - There are even people who have such a question in their minds.
Suddenly, the young man's eyes looked at the hill-like General Gang Xiong in the distance. Something muttered in his mouth.
"Roar!" A beast roar like a mountain flood and tsunami came, and four dazzling light clusters suddenly rose in front of General Gang Xiong.
Suddenly, a burst of cheers suddenly erupted in the bitter cold wind!
"It's Lieutenant General Lu! The fourth stage has begun to fight General Gang Bear! β
"Inform the Ministries! We're already close to the general-level Monster General Gang Xiong! The divisions quickly contracted and regrouped, and a defensive front was established! β
Just as everyone looked at the center of the battlefield with high spirits, the young man withdrew his gaze. It seems that the Star Wars-like scene doesn't belong in his world.
His battlefield, only here, primitive and bloody.
The cold wind howled, rolling the low roar and blood of the demonic beasts. The boy dragged the shattered blade and took a step towards the monster that was eyeing the monster.
"Ahem!" Suddenly, the boy spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
The soldiers hurriedly picked up the boy and noticed the horrific wounds on his body that were deep and bone-deep.
The captain looked at the hill stacked with the corpses of demonic beasts on the side, and his heart was full of horror. "How many monsters did he kill?"
The last words of Lu Qianfan, who had run out of oil and dried up, before he lost consciousness, were only heard by Tang Jie, who had been staying in the Otherworldly Villa.
"Grandma, a bear, you Kort team fights little monsters, what is the matter with Nima being a monster hunter here. Endless......"
Although the war was not over yet, Tang Jie still let out a long breath. He moistened his hoarse throat with saliva, and said helplessly: "I almost gave you a funeral." β
He looked at the nearby bed, the huge villa looked like a field hospital, housing a dozen dying hunters.
Lu Qianfan used all the healing potions on them and didn't leave any for himself.
Tang Jie sat in a chair and closed his eyes to relieve the severe headache.
When he opened his eyes, Lu Qianfan looked at the ceiling in front of him and was stunned for a long time.
The memory is stuck in a certain moment when he fought with Warcraft. How he lost consciousness and how he got here, only a blur of memory.
Knights in magic armor fight with General Bear, the magic that shines in the sky and the thunder that tears the clouds......
The Mecha Warrior rushed into General Bear's arms, turning into light and shards in the cold wind, and the flames that soared into the sky rolled up, turning the raging demonic beasts into charcoal......
Recall vigorously, and there are only these vague and distant images.
Lu Qianfan sat up, and every muscle involved was protesting to him with soreness.
There are healing agents in this world, and the flesh and skin can heal quickly in a short period of time, no matter how many injuries they have. However, fatigue and pain do not go away.
The strong smell of disinfectant water made Lu Qianfan realize that he was lying in the hospital. He was just about to get out of bed, but was held down by Zou Kun, who came in from outside the door.
"Lao Lu, I just went out to take a breath, you don't have to be in such a hurry to find me."
"I'm looking for no one, not you." Lu Qianfan glared at Zou Kun, and there was a sense of weakness in his voice. "Shake the bed up for me and let me sit for a while."
"I'm just a tool." Zou Kun shook up the hospital bed and let Lu Qianfan sit on the bed.
"What about them?" Lu Qianfan asked.
Zou Kun said: "They all went to the funeral. β
"Funeral?"
Zou Kun said: "Duke Ma Qian...... The funeral of the Grand Duke. β
"Posthumously awarded the title......" Lu Qianfan lowered his head and said, "The old man also sacrificed......"
Although it is only a one-sided relationship, Lu Qianfan still has a very good impression of this muscular old man.
He never thought that this fierce old hunter would also die in front of the general-level demonic beast.
"Now should be the ceremony to mourn the 200,000 compatriots who died in the ancient city of Ningcheng disaster and the martyrs." Zou Kun said.
"How many people did we sacrifice?"
"The Knights sacrificed more than 4,100 knights, more than 3,700 hunters, and more than 2,000 wounded......"
A war with general-level Warcraft will cost nearly 10,000 combat power. Lu Qianfan didn't dare to think about it anymore.
"Zou Kun, do you say we did something wrong?"
"Are you mentally tired?" Zou Kun looked at Lu Qianfan in surprise. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "No, you've been stupid for a long time. If you weren't stupid, you wouldn't have run back without telling us. β
Lu Qianfan didn't speak. A pair of dark eyes stared at Zou Kun tightly, hoping to get his answer. Zou Kun was uncomfortable by Lu Qianfan, and hurriedly said: "Tang Jie said that the strength of Da Tolun is much stronger than that of General Gangxiong. If you don't stop the Great ToruΕ, the Hunters' Guild and the Knights will pay more than that. β
"Ten years ago, also in the face of General Gangxiong, we sacrificed more than 6,000 people, including the three dukes, to barely hold the defense line in the far north."
The man who walked into the ward had sunken eyes and an empty left cuff of his military uniform. He saluted Lu Qianfan and said, "The Chinese People's Knights, the commander of the Far North Defense Line, Lu Ke." β
Lu Qianfan saw the two stars on his shoulders. "Lieutenant General?"
"I've heard about you." Lu Ke said, "In terms of results, we have defeated a general-level demonic beast that has threatened the northern realm for ten years. However, the number of demonic beasts near the ancient city of Ning also surged due to the arrival of General Gang Xiong. We had to abandon our plan to reclaim Ninggu for the time being, opting instead to shrink our defensive line. β
Lu Qianfan pursed his lips lightly.
"If we really do what the young man said, let the Minotaur Toren continue to advance, we may really suffer losses that are far more than giving up Ninggu." Outside the door of the ward, the one said.
Lu Shenzhou shook his head. "We paid the price of blood to stop this catastrophe, but we also had to abandon large tracts of land. If General Bear hadn't clashed with the Minotaur Torun Great, or if we hadn't been able to defeat General Bear, we would have paid far more than that. β
This one laughed. "Stopping the Great ToruΕ is also your reasoning. Whether it's the best or not, we've avoided at least the worst. Give young people some time to grow. β
Lu Shenzhou looked at Lu Qianfan, who was silent for a moment in the ward, and then suddenly smiled, and said, "The guy who lacks discipline." β
"There are not many young people who have grown so savagely that they can change the tide of the war on their own." This one said: "I was a little reckless, but I was full of courage and responsibility, and my mind was flexible. It's a good seedling. How come that guy's office always picks up treasures......"
When it comes to the Laughing Shadow Agency, both of them think of Ma Qian. "It's been a hard time in this life, old horse."
Lu Ke walked out of the hospital room and said, "The matter is clear. No rewards and punishments for merit and demerit. However, he still seems to have a pimple in his heart. β
"I've never been on the battlefield before. It is also his fate to survive this time. Lu Shenzhou said.
Luke sighed. "I'm not against being strict with children, but you're too harsh. Is he really your own son? β
"It's like a fake."
The one shook his head helplessly. He said: "Lao Lu, arrange a plane back to Dijing, my mission of stabilizing the morale of the army here is over, and someone in Dijing is ready to move while I am away." Lu Ke, after the threat of general-level demonic beasts is lifted, the task of dealing with the beast tide and reorganizing the defense line will be handed over to you. β
"Understood."
Lu Shenzhou walked last, the corners of his mouth rising slightly.
After resting for almost a week in the city of Lunning, behind the Far North defensive line, Lu Qianfan finally returned to Anjing.
"I feel like I've been gone for almost a year......" Lu Qianfan let out a long breath as the plane landed, stepping on the floor of the terminal hall.
Tang Jie followed behind him and did not speak. Ma Qian's sacrifice had a great impact on him. When he was in Lunning, he barely spoke, and plunged headlong into the research of general-level demonic beasts, and it was not until the first two days that he got better.
Xiao Ranran also followed Lu Qianfan back to Anjing.
After she progressed to the second stage, the goal was accomplished. Moreover, the impact of the Ninggu battle on her was also not small, and she also needed to change the environment to relax.
"Ranran, where are we going in a moment?"
"Go back to the apartment."
"Just go home? Don't go out and play? β
"I'll go home."
Lu Qianfan felt that Xiao Ranran's attitude towards him suddenly became cold again, which made him a little confused, so he could only follow Xiao Ranran's meaning first.
When the three of them walked all the way to the bottom of Xiao Ranran's apartment, Xiao Ranran suddenly asked, "What have you been following me for?" β
Lu Qianfan scratched his head. "Go home."
"This is my home."
"Isn't this my home too?"
"When is this your house?" Xiao Ranran said angrily: "Go back to your dormitory!" β
Lu Qianfan said: "I moved out of the dormitory, and I have been living with you since then. β
"What did you say!"
"You gave me the key." Lu Qianfan said.
Xiao Ranran was speechless.
Lu Qianfan asked with a shy face: "I'll wipe the table and sweep the floor, do laundry and cooking, warm the bed and rub your back, and don't pay the rent, okay?" β
"Get out!"
Looking at Lu Qianfan, who was putting on a aggrieved look, Xiao Ranran thought to herself, how did this guy do so shameless?
Lu Qianfan lived in Xiao Ranran's apartment stubbornly, paid the rent as usual, and was also responsible for cleaning the table and sweeping the floor, washing and cooking. Of course, there is no warm bed to rub back.
Looking at the pink-haired grandfather in his hand, Xiao Ranran felt that she still had to be less.
Lu Qianfan said while tidying up the room: "Where can you pick up a nanny like me." β
"I think I'm still losing." Xiao Ranran said.
"I think so too."
"Why are you here?" Lu Qianfan said to Tang Jie, who was drinking milk tea and looking at the tablet at the table: "This is my home!" β
"This is my home!" Xiao Ranran corrected.
"It's fine." Lu Qianfan put his left face on the right side of his face - no face if you enter, and no face when you retreat.
"Much worse!" Xiao Ranran said angrily.
Tang Jie said: "Lu Qianfan, there is a commission, will you take it?" β
"No!"
"Then I won't take it, and I don't really want to take it." Tang Jie said: "I'm back to the office. β
"Oh, good."
It seems that everything has returned to peace.
However, for a whole month after that, Lu Qianfan was a three-point line for the school, the office, and the apartment every day. Although he would report to the office every day, he never took the commission again, nor did he see Le Ningyue once.
"Still haven't you taken the commission?" Zou Kun called and asked.
"Nope." Lu Qianfan said while playing the game: "I can't get interested." It felt like I was dreaming before, a big dream...... After Ninggu, it was time to wake up from a dream. β
"I'm not as literary as you. But I also feel that I haven't had the fighting spirit lately. Zou Kun said, "What about Yun Jiu? β
"Their consortium seems to have a lot of things, and it will take half a day to reply to my message." Lu Qianfan said: "Geniuses are similar, either in the research room or in the library. I haven't seen him a few times this month. β
It seems that after returning from Ninggu, only Xiao Ranran will deal with commissions related to Warcraft.
After chatting a few words, Zou Kun hung up the phone. Lu Qianfan looked at Xiao Ranran and asked, "Ranran, go out on a date with me." β
"Haven't you relaxed enough?" Xiao Ranran reluctantly agreed to Lu Qianfan's request.
"Let's go to the stone house and eat hot pot." Lu Qianfan said.
"Everything."
However, not long after the two arrived at the store and sat down, they were targeted.
Lu Qianfan looked at the boiling bottom of the pot on the stove heated by magic energy, and said to Xiao Ranran: "The word "red face and troubled water" is simply too suitable for you. β
Lu Qianfan suddenly had a little motivation.
