Chapter 612: The Eve of Departure on
At the end of the meeting, all the Crouching Tiger warriors walked out of the conference room, and Nero remained inside to talk to the Legion Commander. In the corridor of the field military building, Renee was pacing back and forth with her heart in mind, and suddenly she looked up in front of her, who was more than a head taller than her.
Nero, whose face was naturally cold, glanced at Renee condescendingly. If it were a living person, if you bumped into Nero's eyes from above and down, you would involuntarily feel that Nero was cold and terrible, but Renee would not. She put away her thoughts and smiled softly.
"How's your recovery going?" Nero was concerned about Renee's voice, but her sculptural features looked like she had a straight face.
"It's fully recovered, and you can go to the tasks assigned by the Legion Commander anytime and anywhere." Renee said.
There was a hint of relief in Nero's tone, and he said: "The situation in the next mission is very serious, just don't force yourself to fight or not." ”
Nero takes care of Renee, not so much because he cares for each of his subordinates. Beneath his sculpturally handsome and rigid face lies a heart that is not cold, but rather fiery for his subordinates.
Renee thanked Nero for her concern, and she also estimated the danger of the next mission. Of all the mission orders issued by the Northern Legion in history, infiltrating the occupied area to investigate is undoubtedly the most dangerous mission, and the mission survival rate also corresponds to the highest danger, which is the lowest.
Just ask, even if there is a transportation vehicle with excellent horsepower, defense performance, and attack performance, when they infiltrate the occupied area to track down the Gray Queen, suddenly the Gray Queen turns to target, and the endless plague species and predators driven by the Gray Queen chase them to death, what kind of predicament will they fall into?
Once the plague beast tide is surrounded in the occupied area, the end is a dead word. The same applies to the Crouching Tiger. Even so, Renee couldn't have given up or simply used the excuse that she hadn't recovered from her serious injuries to miss the mission.
If she was this kind of person, she wouldn't have been able to progress to the strength she has now from the beginning.
Renee nodded in response to Nero's words. She added: "By the way, last time on the battlefield, thank you for saving me in danger. If it weren't for you and Song Zha's predecessors, I probably wouldn't be here now. ”
Nero knew what Renee was referring to, and he said lightly, "This kind of thing is normal, there is no need to remember it." ”
In fact, Nero has already been severely criticized by the commander of the Northern Legion. He was punished with a salary cut and a restriction on merit for secretly not fully following the orders of the Legion Commander. Naturally, only Nero himself knew about this matter, and Wu Sheng and Song Zha.
Such a penalty is not too severe, but it is not light. The Legion Commander has his own principles of punishment and will control the severity of punishment according to the situation. This time, Nero's judgment finally saved Renee's life, and neither Crouching Tiger nor the Northern Legion suffered substantial losses, so he was punished lightly.
As for Nero himself, he carried out his judgment and the will to save his comrades on the chaotic battlefield where time was pressing, and finally won a great victory; Therefore, he will not regret the punishment in the slightest.
For soldiers who are accustomed to the difference between life and death on the battlefield, the life of their comrades is more important than anything else.
Renee's lips pursed, and her blue eyes were sparkling. The emotion in her eyes was as bright as the radiant look.
"Anyway, I won't forget."
Renee didn't know that Nero had been punished for this, and the reason she remembered it was because she knew best how terrible it was to not escape the lethality of the heavy artillery shells in time. In order to save her, Nero and Song Zha did not hesitate to step into the ghost gate with one foot, and it was they who fished her out of the ghost gate.
The sun slid down into the sky, turning into sunset and then falling into the mountains of the far west. Night and the bright moon turned into the sky, and at this time, the legion battlefield behind the northern front had not yet completely fallen into a deep sleep, and many soldiers continued to be busy at night.
In the room of the officer's quarters, Renee sat at her desk in casual clothes. The lights in the room were not on, almost dark, except for a desk lamp that glowed white and yellow.
Outside the curtains are not drawn, and the night scene is a dark blue and pitch black. There were large silhouettes of black shadows everywhere, and if you didn't go to the balcony, the light of the moon and stars in the sky could not shine into the room.
Occasionally, Renee would turn off the lights in her room, not go to bed, and sit at the desk with the light on, either meditating or being in a daze.
Usually, my brain spins fast, and when I have time, I don't think about anything, and it's actually a very relaxing thing to stay for a while.
But today Renee is not going to just be in a daze. She took out her folded computer and placed it on her desk, standing it up, then found the contact "Dr. Gregor" and initiated a request for video communication.
The video communication waited for a few moments before it was connected, and Renee saw Gregor's face looking at the screen through the screen.
I hadn't seen him in months, and Greg seemed younger. Of course, the wrinkles on his face and the silver hair on his head will not go back in time, and they will become Greg's eyes and the spirit on his face.
"Good evening, Gregor." Renee couldn't help but smile when she saw Greg.
"Good evening, Renee." Greg was a little surprised by Renee's video communication, but he was happy.
"You're now, is it convenient?" Renee asked. She didn't want to delay Gregor's work.
"Rest tonight. You look around me, I'm home. Greg turned the folding computer screen left and right to show Renee what his home looked like.
Renee thought to herself, "That's right," so she recounted what had happened recently, like a daughter who had been training outside the home for a certain period of time.
Renee can't say everything about the Northern Front, it involves military secrets. What Renee didn't expect was that the matter of the Gray Queen and the corpse virus had spread to Xinjing, alarming the high-level of the Supreme Third Hospital. Greg was among them, and got the relevant information.
"The day after tomorrow, I will go to the Fall Zone with my teammates to carry out the mission of infiltrating and tracking down the Gray Queen and the corpse virus. This mission is said to be dangerous, and although I will definitely come back safely, I think I will have to talk to you before leaving. After all, when I get to the occupied area, I don't know when I will be able to contact you again. Renee said with emotion.
It sounds contradictory, and Renee's mood at the moment is a combination of contradictions. Because deep down she is not as confident as she says.
As a dangerous task, there is a mortality rate.
"Stay safe." Greg didn't have a lot to say, a lot of his words were condensed into one sentence. When he said this, his eyes flickered faintly, like the surface of a river flowing quietly on a cloudy day.
