Chapter 24: The Choice

During the brief dispute in the camp, the batman had completely blocked the footsteps of Hou Can and the others, and continued to fly down from the air, tentatively attacking them.

Hou Can and the three of them were close together, and the weapons in their hands were constantly swinging, and they had reached the point of exhaustion.

Without any respite, the slightest mistake could have crushed their fragile defenses and torn them apart with their claws.

But in Li Ling's eyes, those batmen became more and more like they were putting on a show, thus arousing the anger of the audience in the camp! For a moment, he doubted that Kurban was right.

Until lightning struck a large tree in the distance, flames immediately rose.

This is not a forest, only a few scattered large trees, as the son of a forest guard, the flames in the field immediately reminded him of his father, and his father's posture in the fire. Heroic and with a little embarrassment, with the harbinger of death!

"Nope! That's not how it shouldn't end! Li Ling roared wordlessly, as if there was a shadow of his father among the three people who were struggling desperately.

The lightning passed, the thunder rolled, and the three of them were engulfed by darkness again, leaving only the flame that was reflected in Li Ling's pupils!

He picked up the spear he had thrown to the ground again.

"What are you doing!?" Miao Chuang took the lead in questioning. "Do you want to go out and die? Tell you, it's not that easy to die! There are less than 300 of us, and every death is a huge loss, have you forgotten what you said? ”

"I mean what I say, and everybody matters." Li Ling passed straight past Miao Chuang, slammed him away with his shoulder, and hissed and whispered, "But no matter how many beasts die, it can't be considered a loss!" ”

Miao Chuang was almost knocked away by Li Ling, and then fell heavily to the ground. His face was pale, and his eyes shone with a sinister light. Trying to stand up but unable to do so.

Kurban looked ready to move, and Li Ling took the lead in pointing a gun at him: "I'll give you a word: get out!" ”

Kurban's face was extremely ugly, and thinking of the lesson of the last time, he obediently turned sideways to give way.

"Li Ling!" Qin Xiaoyu rushed out of the crowd and stood in front of Li Ling, also holding a weapon in his hand.

"Are you going to stop me too? Why? Li Ling smiled bitterly and shook his head, his endurance had reached the last limit, and his hands trembled a little.

"No, if you're going to die, take me with you!" Unexpectedly, Qin Xiaoyu said. Her eyes were firmly fixed on Li Ling, as if she wanted to keep his appearance in mind.

Then, she gently touched the scar on Li Ling's back with her fingers, and said softly in distress, "Please forgive me for being selfish just now." I know what you're going to choose, but I selfishly want you to live! But how scared I am of losing you......"

"So......" Li Ling was so excited that he was almost speechless. You think I didn't do anything wrong?! ”

"Of course! How can kindness be wrong?! Qin Xiaoyu comforted him with Li Ling's words in turn, and said, "I support you!" ”

Li Ling's heart thumped against his chest, as if he was beating a drum. He never thought that a word of agreement would make him feel so significant!

Especially from a loved one, he thought.

He glanced again into the dark distance, and with a decision in his mind, he shouted, "Thank you for your kindness, but I'll do it myself, not with a drag bottle!" Look at the wound on my back, it's proof. ”

He saw Qin Xiaoyu's body suddenly freeze there, his eyes were full of doubts and incomprehension, of course, it was more of a woman's anger!

Just when Qin Xiaoyu was stunned, Li Ling snatched the spear in her hand and rushed out.

With a flash of lightning and thunder, he aimed in the direction he was heading. Since they were stationed at a high place in this field, Li Ling would have taken a big step when he rushed out, otherwise he would easily fall forward.

The distance of half a hundred meters was almost impossible for him to reach in a few breaths.

He even raised the spear in his hand in advance, wanting to teach the fierce beast a good lesson.

His stride was huge, and he could cross a distance of several meters in a single step, as if he were jumping.

Hou Can took advantage of the bonfire in the direction of the camp and immediately found Li Ling's high-jumping figure, and cheered excitedly: "Here, Li Ling, they are here, we are saved!" I knew ......"

The other two heard him and turned their heads in the direction of the camp with some recklessness.

In that hurry, a batman swept by, its claws digging deep into Hou Can's ribs, pulling him into the distance.

"No!" Li Ling roared and threw the spear in his hand hard, but he didn't touch anything.

"Back to back! Focus! Li Ling shouted at the other two, and reluctantly chased after the batman.

The distance between them became farther and farther away, but Li Ling did not dare to give up, but fortunately, the enemy soon could not fly and fell to the ground.

Hou Can struggled a few times, broke free from the batman's claws, and rolled to the ground. The batman jumped into the air and fled, but unfortunately Hou Can's ribs were broken with a big hole, and a large piece of flesh and blood was torn apart.

Li Ling ran over and saw Hou Can's injury, he knew what it meant to be so seriously injured. He half-knelt in front of Hou Can and said, "I'm sorry, I'm late!" ”

"But you're still here......" Hou Can said weakly. But why...... You're alone?! ”

Li Ling didn't know how to answer, and looked away. It was cruel enough to let Hou Can lie down and wait for death, how could he bear to tell the truth?

"I see!" Hou Can guessed the truth from Li Ling's expression. "As a soldier, I understood early on how to choose between the collective and the individual! I...... I can understand them! ”

Li Ling nodded, he also knew this.

"You're going to promise me one thing!" Hou Can raised his blood-stained hand and clutched Li Ling's arm tightly. "I told the two frightened young companions that they would come to our rescue, that we would be safe and sound, that we would marry and have children, and that we would build a home...... I'm going to die, and I'll never see that day, but I don't want to break my promise! ”

"No, it won't!" Li Ling didn't know what to say, so he could only answer like this.

The two batmen broke away from the large group and hovered above the heads of the two!

"Looks like I'm going to enjoy a sky burial! Let's hope the Yellow Springs Road in Sirte isn't as dark as it is now! Hou Can closed his eyes, as if he was tired and about to fall asleep, but he muttered again: "Let's go...... It's too late! ”

Li Ling stood up and ran towards the other two companions, he didn't dare to look back, but saw the two hovering batmen swooping behind him.

"It's not giving up! It's fate! Li Ling thought sadly.

The two companions, who were as young as Li Ling, were exhausted, and several large cuts were torn on their bodies. As soon as Li Ling came to them, he couldn't support it and sat on the ground.

"Rest well, it's time for me to play!" Li Ling whispered and clenched the spear with both hands.

The suppressed emotional power in his body exploded in an instant, roaring wildly, and the tip of the spear suddenly pierced through a bat-man in close proximity. The batman's body approached Li Ling along the barrel of the gun, leaving a deep wound on his chest. Li Ling swung his fist vigorously and smashed it the batman's head, knocking it unconscious.

"The price of impulsiveness!" Li Ling thought to himself, he remembered Nayin's advice - stay calm!

After learning the lesson, Li Ling changed his strategy, and whenever a batman boldly wanted to approach him or his exhausted companions, he swung his spear in advance and slashed through the batman's body with a dagger with a thatched tip.

Those batmen are extremely cunning, always flanking left and right at the same time, and are immediately replaced by their companions when they are injured. Therefore, although there were many injured batmen, the only one who died was pierced by Li Ling.

But the Batman's blood kept spilling from the air. Li Ling did not shy away from the hot blood, allowing it to fall on his head, flowing down his cheeks and over his body, congealing with his own blood.

"All lives are equal! Even if it's an ant. "Even at this time, Li Ling did not lose his mind, but more clearly realized: every life has its own meaning of existence, but it also has to bear the consequences of every action!"

Just like these hideous batmen in front of him, Li Ling didn't feel how evil they were, nor did he feel that he killed them for venting or revenge. I just feel that I can't watch my companions die in the struggle, and I want them to live well with hope......

But in the eyes of the people hiding in the camp, Li Ling was as crazy as a beast that had lost its mind and only knew how to kill.

Even the two guards who collapsed beside Li Ling and were protected by him with all his might were startled, wondering if Li Ling was crazy. But they soon discovered that Li Ling's seemingly crazy tip of the spear could always poke the batman's soft belly at the most opportune time and split a wound.

They understood that Li Ling was sacrificing his life to protect himself, and the expressions of the two became solemn, and they couldn't wait to stand up immediately and fight side by side with Li Ling. But they are already overdrawn and can't do anything for the time being.

……

When Qin Xiaoyu reacted to Li Ling's trick on her, Li Ling's bloody and lonely appearance stung her deeply.

"Bastard! You always want to be a hero alone! Do you think I'm going to watch you die?! Qin Xiaoyu gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice, and ran towards the crowd.

"Wait! What are you going to do again?! Kurban stopped her and asked.

"What do you say?!" Due to the previous betrayal, Qin Xiaoyu did not give him a good face.

"It's useless if you go!" Kurban Road.

"So? You're trying to help me?! Qin Xiaoyu sneered and looked around the crowd. A discerning person can see that Li Ling alone can hold out for so long, which shows that those batmen are not invincible.

In Qin Xiaoyu's heart, he actually hoped that everyone would help him, and also help their poor and dying chief.
