Chapter 28: The Assault (4)
Hammer lay on his stomach behind a bush, vigilantly watching the direction of the hole, and his mind was in a state of confusion, and he thought of many bad things.
"How so!"
"How can there be anyone here!"
"Leia, have they been discovered? Impossible, impossible, no one knows about it except the people in the town......"
Thinking of this, Hammer's heart seemed to be pinched fiercely, and it instantly went from his head to the soles of his feet, and he thought of those who had defected to the enemy.
"Those abominable traitors!"
Hammer could no longer suppress the mania in his heart, he wanted to confirm Leia's situation now, he didn't want to wait any longer.
He remembered what Uncle Blacksmith had told him on his deathbed.
So he didn't wait for the enemy in front of him to leave, but ran straight out of the bush and ran in the direction of the cave.
As soon as he stood up, he saw several robbers standing at the entrance of the cave, and among them was indeed an outsider taken in by the town, and he chuckled in his heart.
The hammer didn't care about anything else, he raised his foot and ran to the hole, and as he ran, he frantically pulled the trigger on the few people in front of him, and he couldn't aim at all.
"It's going to be fine! It's going to be fine! He comforted himself frantically.
But he could not calm down, and his mind would unconsciously appear images of people being killed, as well as the blacksmith's instructions to him.
He shot the entire magazine in quick succession, and he didn't stop until he pulled the trigger and no more bullets were fired.
The robbers were stunned by what they saw, and when they heard the first shot, they looked in the direction of the hammer.
I saw a young man rushing at them with a strange weapon, and every time the weapon spewed out a tongue of fire, there would be a loud noise, and then one of their brothers would fall.
When the shooting stopped, all the surviving robbers were paralyzed in fright, and almost every one of them was shot, except that some of them were hit in places that were not fatal.
They wailed and shouted for help all around.
Each step the hammer took closer to them, the fear in their hearts increased.
It wasn't until the robbers who were lying on the ground watched in horror as the demon passed by them and ran directly into the entrance of the cave that they were slightly relieved.
The hammer that rushed into the cave followed the memory in the right direction, and the cave** had almost no light, except for the faint fluorescence of some plant rhizomes and a few fungi.
The hammer in the wild was scratched by the plant rhizome of the hole ** and was full of injuries, and several times because of the darkness, he hit his head on the hard earth wall, but he didn't care, and continued to get up and continue to run when he fell.
He blamed himself so much now, he was afraid, he was afraid that something would happen to Lea, that they would lose their lives because of their judgment and ego.
I shouldn't have left them, if the price of revenge is to lose more, then what's the point of revenge, if Leia and they are killed, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life.
After running out for more than ten minutes, he came to a large cave space.
The scene in front of him made the hammer completely collapse, and he instantly lost his ability to think, his mind went blank, and his body rolled directly to the ground uncontrollably.
Looking at the corpses of the people in front of him, and the frightened and helpless expressions on the faces of the corpses, Iron Hammer felt that the stupidest thing he had done in his life was to leave the people in front of him.
He pounded the ground weakly.
He hugged Leia's corpse and cried.
He slapped himself hard.
But this... What's the use!
…………
At this time, outside the cave.
The robbers who had been attracted by the passive silence also rushed to the vicinity of the hidden hole, and they felt slightly touched by the scene in front of them.
There were several corpses of their companions lying in front of them, and a few who were not dead were also holding their lower abdomen and severed limbs and wailing.
Now that the robbers have completely controlled the town, how can there be such a large number of casualties, could it be that the man with the mysterious weapon is moving again?
After questioning, the robbers learned that it was indeed the mysterious man who did it, and that he was in the cave, and that none of the people who were intimidated dared to enter the cave.
They were all terrified by the fire-breathing weapon.
After their deliberations, they decided to blow up the cave with gunpowder and bury the dangerous creature inside to prevent future troubles.
…………
"Let's go, leave with the children and the women!"
Hammer saw the figure of the leader rushing into the enemy line.
"Protect Lea, she's my only relative, I agree with you to be together, go ahead."
Uncle Blacksmith's last instructions to him appeared in front of him.
"We must live, and we can't let your father and so many warriors die in vain."
He saw again the promise he had made when he hugged Leia.
Then, so the figures converged in front of his eyes, and all the people who had died in this conflict gathered around him, and their figures continued to rise, gradually surrounding him in the middle.
"You failed the tribe!"
"You failed us!"
"Look at what you've done!"
"I shouldn't have put their comfort in your hands!"
……
The crowd got closer and closer, and their figures became bigger and bigger, and every word they uttered came together, and finally turned into a mountain and pressed hard against the hammer.
He was pressed to the ground by this mountain, and he did not dare to raise his head to face everyone, he had no idea of resisting this pressure, and let the accusations of everyone bury him, and let this mountain bury him.
In an instant, the scene in front of him disappeared, and it became the scene he saw as he rushed into the cave.
The children and women all turned their heads to look at him, and they smiled, their eyes revealing dependence and concern for themselves.
Just as he was about to begin to tell how brave and witty he had been out there to hunt down the robbers.
The scene in front of me changed in an instant, and the corpses in the cave were all on the ground, and the ground was stained bright red with blood.
"Look at what you've protected."
Suddenly there was the voice of the blacksmith uncle in disappointment.
The voice fell.
Bang!!! There was a loud bang on the ground, so the picture dissipated.
Hammer shook his head and opened his heavy eyelids.
He had passed out from blood loss and grief, until he was awakened by a loud explosion.
When he came to his senses, he suppressed his pain and prepared to bury everyone's bodies on the spot.
Just as he was digging hard, the self-blame and guilt in his eyes gradually turned into firmness and hatred.
When everything was dealt with, he knelt down in the direction of burying everyone, clenched his right hand into a fist, struck his left chest, and then slowly bowed down, and he knelt like this for a long time.
At one point, as if he had made up his mind, he stood up, picked up his sniper rifle, and walked in the direction he had come.
