Chapter 105: Choice
Roar!
The hundred-meter-tall Sixth Beast emerges from the ground. More than a dozen huge roots could easily destroy the house.
Five hundred meters away from the Sixth Beast, an artillery camp immediately shifted its position and pointed its cannon barrel in the direction of the Sixth Beast.
"Shoot!"
At the sound of an order, the artillery continued to fire from left to right6.
The cannonball landed on the Sixth Beast, causing a burst of explosions, but after the explosion, there was no damage to the parts that were hit except for some charred black.
"The power of this shell is too weak, and the gun in their hand is the same, if they use depleted uranium armor-piercing shells, they should be able to easily shred it." Hanmo stood aside and didn't attack the Sixth Beast.
This was Graystoneskin's request, and he said that if he could, he hoped to leave a Sixth Beast behind for them to deal with.
"Is this training or abuse?" He was referring to the actions of the soldiers, whose attacks were of no use other than to make the Sixth Beast suffer. On the battlefield, two girls are flapping their wings and flying, while looking for an opportunity to cut off the roots of the sixth beast.
He also understood why he didn't upgrade ordinary weapons.
They have ready-made max-level equipment on hand, so why bother to climb the tech tree from scratch? It's a simple fluke.
"Drink!" Armed with the holy sword Valkaris, Ethya slashed through the trunk of the sixth beast with a single sword, then dodged to the side, dodging the attacks of the other roots.
"Are these holy swords so unique?" Han Mo stared at the holy sword that looked like an axe knife in her hand, and then looked at the steel sword in his hand, "That kind of shape is only suitable for chopping, and the center of gravity is at the tip of the sword. Well, that's not supposed to be the tip of a sword. "Because it has no tip, the tip of the sword is an arc-shaped blade.
He threw out a long whip of iron sand, pulled out several soldiers who were almost attacked, and continued to watch their battle.
"I'm sorry." Graystone Skins stood next to him and thanked him.
"After all, we agreed, you provide supplies, and I will help you train the troops." Han Mo threw out several long whips again, rolling several frightened soldiers over, surrounded by several hundred-meter-long iron sand whips.
"Final blow!" After Nephline was about to cut off the roots, Ethya rushed forward and stabbed her sword into the body of the sixth beast, flying around the main body of the sixth beast, slicing it into several knots.
She put the sword on her shoulder, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said with a smile, "It's done." ”
Everyone else said with smiles, this mission was too easy, no one died, although there were injuries, but none of them were very serious. It's much better than in the past, when at least a few dozen people died.
After this battle, they waited one more day, and after destroying another batch of Sixth Beasts, they got on the airship and went back.
When they arrived at the port, it was raining, and as soon as they got off the airship, they met William, who was standing in the rain waiting for them.
"Are you out for a walk tonight?" Aseya was a little surprised, and teased him there.
William handed Hanmo an umbrella and walked with Ethya with it, "I heard Nigolan say that you will be back tonight, so I'm here to pick you up." ”
"Thank you." Hanmo opened his umbrella and walked with Nephline.
"Nothing seems to be going on." Seeing that there were no wounds on several people's bodies, William breathed a sigh of relief, "You guys, it's time to fight the Seventeen Beasts." ”
"Mmmm~ It seems that Administrator William knows." Aithea pointed at Hanmo, "Fortunately, there is a teacher, I thought it would be a difficult battle, but after the teacher joined, the battle was unexpectedly simple." ”
"Really?" William remembered the power of Hanmo's explosion that time, as well as the wreckage he secretly saw, which showed that Hanmo had a very strong strength.
"yes." Ethya nodded, thought of a question, and turned to Hanmo to ask, "In five days, there will be another battle to be participated in, and will the teacher also go then?" ”
"Yes." Han Mo was stunned for a moment, and replied with a smile, "I will participate in the next battle." ”
Hearing this, William suddenly felt relieved, although he didn't want to admit it, he hoped from the bottom of his heart that Hanmo could always fight for them.
He had lost his strength now, and there was no way to fight with them. To be honest, the appearance of a powerful person with them at such a time made his originally hanging heart relax.
"Nothing happened here these days, right?" Hanmo asked as he walked.
"Probably." William remembered the time he had spent the past few days with Kodori, and he could feel that Kodoli had a crush on him. He didn't know what to do and replied somewhat absent-mindedly.
"Probably?" Hanmo repeated.
"No, don't worry, Kodori and I are taking good care of the children, and they are not hurt." William realized that his answer was a bit problematic, and hurriedly spoke. Honestly, he has understood the meaning of Nigolan's previous words of 'don't care about his life' in the past few days.
If it weren't for his quick movements, one of the children would have jumped off the hill more than ten meters high in order to pick up the ball.
After chatting all the way, they went back to their rooms to rest.
Han Mo sat on the bed in the room, holding the military dry food he had asked for from Gray Rock Skin, "The taste is really unique, and besides, for ordinary people, it is also a little harder." ”
He bit it, felt the hardness of the cartilage, sighed, ate it in two or three strokes, and picked up a new packet of dry food to continue eating. This compressed food is higher in calories than ordinary food, at least it doesn't require him to eat a lot of it.
After filling his stomach a little, Hanmo changed into civilian clothes again, opened the door and walked out.
At the door of the warehouse, Nevelyn stood, white moonlight sprinkled on her.
Hanmo didn't expect to meet Nephlian here. She was still wearing that military uniform, and she didn't look like she had just arrived.
"Why haven't you gone to sleep yet? If you go to bed too late, you tend to grow taller. ”
"What about you?" Nevelian asked rhetorically, pointing to the sword in Hanmo's hand, "You're going to fight again, aren't you?" ”
"Yes." Hanmo was silent for a moment and replied.
"Even though you just came back today, are you leaving again?" Nephline was puzzled and said, "Why are you in such a hurry, even if it is a day late, it will not have any effect on the world. ”
Han Mo was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke, "In order to destroy the Seventeen Beasts earlier." ”
He didn't say anything to save them, as if he took himself for granted as a benefactor who saved them, and he didn't want to do that.
"Do you want to change the world on your own?" Neferan walked up to Han Mo and raised her head to stare into his eyes, "The Seventeen Beasts wiped out all the races on the ground five hundred years ago, and they weren't just the Sixth Beast. In the past five hundred years, there have also been floating islands that have been destroyed because of the Seventeen Beasts. ”
"Don't worry, I'm strong." Hanmo said with a smile.
"No matter how strong you are, your abilities are not infinitely usable, and when your strength is exhausted, you will die."
Hanmo fell silent again.
She was right, he was just strong, not invincible, no matter what ability he used, it was based on his physical strength, and once his physical strength was exhausted, even he could only rely on his steel body to carry it, which he himself knew very well.
At the beginning, he thought that the power level was very weak, but in the end, the kind of monster that was so huge that it could destroy a city appeared, and in this apocalyptic world, no one can guarantee that there will be stronger monsters.
"Among the Seventeen Beasts, there are monsters that even the strongest goblin cannot kill even if he opens the gate of Goblin Township. These are recorded in the study. ”
In ancient times, there was a profession in this world, called 'brave', the brave is the strongest person in the contemporary era, and the power of the explosion can easily smooth a ridge, and below this, there are many powerful quasi-braves, they are also the existence of the existence that can easily change the landscape.
All these signs show that the level of force in this world is not low.
"I know this, that's it, that's why I need it more, right? If even I am scared and run away, then who else can I expect to stand up and fight. Han Mo said his own thoughts, "Even I, who is currently the strongest, am afraid of the Seventeen Beasts, and then this world can only be on the verge of extinction forever." There's nothing left to do but pray that the Seventeen Beasts that could destroy the Floating Island won't show up here, is there? ”
If even the heroes run away, who else can be asked to fight?
It seems a bit wrong to say this, because he doesn't think of himself as a hero, but the truth is close. As far as he knew, apart from himself, the strongest people here were the golden goblins like Kodori. The greatest power that can burst out is the gate of Fairy Township.
If he doesn't fight, will he let these girls who are countless times weaker than him fight?
Nephline stared into his eyes, trying to find a hint of hesitation, but in this moment, she saw only perseverance, as if he had always been a strong-willed man.
After nearly three minutes of stalemate like this, she stepped back, "I'll go with you." ”
"No way!" Hanmo subconsciously refused, "It's too dangerous, you have to stay here." ”
"Why, aren't you very strong? Since those seventeen beasts are not a threat to you, it is not a hassle to bring me with you. Neferen said word by word, "Don't worry, I won't join you in the fight." ”
From Nephren's face, Hanmo couldn't see any possibility of regression again.
He guessed what Nephren meant. She was worried that she would be in danger, and among the seventeen beasts, there were no species with the ability to fly. If she was there, she would be in danger and she would be able to take him away.
Indeed, in terms of flight, Hanmo is far inferior to the Golden Elf.
She feared for his safety, and he feared for hers, and she knew that to make such a request. I'm afraid that her real purpose is not to make Hanmo discourage the idea of going out to fight, as she said.
Hanmo was very complicated now, and he didn't know whether to be moved or given a headache.
Normal people probably choose to insist on fighting.
"Well, I'm not going today." Hanmo chose to retreat, "It's not early, go back and rest." ”
"Really?"
"Really, I promise you, I won't go secretly." He had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart, if he took Nephren out tonight, there might be something he regretted.
