216: The Aftermath of the Catastrophe
He clutched his stomach in pain and regained consciousness when he saw the scene in front of him.
"YouβAre you Su Yu?"
"You know me?" Su Yu stretched out his hand and pulled him up: "With this little guts, you still come to participate in the mid-term assessment?" β
"Not really." He lowered his head and muttered quietly.
"What's that?"
"It's my brother, my brother and I team up to kill the orcs, but the orcs are so fast that we can't catch them. My brother was in a hurry and knocked me unconscious. When I woke up, I had been caught by the orcs for a long distance, and I had no idea where I was. β
"What did your brother do when you knocked you out? You can't hurt an orc when you're awake, can you hurt if you're dizzy? β
"No, it's not like that." As he spoke, he cried inexplicably: "My brother has a lot of ideas since he was a child, and he has a strong desire to win. β
"So, you suspect that your brother wants to kill you?"
"As long as we pass the mid-term assessment, we can stay in the special training department." He didn't want to doubt it, but the facts were already in front of him.
"What's your name?"
"IβMy name is Rize."
"Where's your brother?"
"Ruixin."
Su Yu snorted coldly, such a cannibalism, even his own brother did not let go. Can't you learn from other people's Chu Fei? My brother is gone, and I came all the way to see him in District S. There is really a difference between people, how can a person like Ruixin compare to Chu Fei.
Su Yu looked at the orcs who were killed around him: "If you bring back the corpses of these orcs, will you be able to successfully advance?" β
"So much?"
"Ruize, remember."
"Huh?" Rize raised his head and looked at Su Yu, who had resolute eyes, and suddenly felt that the snow on her helmet was exceptionally beautiful. There is always a sense of security by her side.
The rest of my life after the catastrophe is thanks to her.
"The weak have only their share to be trampled underfoot, and the weak are worthy only of food for the orcs. I can help you this time, the second time, the third time in distress, what are you going to do? Have you forgotten what the instructor usually taught? β
"I was knocked unconscious."
"Even if you are in a difficult situation, don't give up the struggle, let alone panic, you know?"
"I see."
"You're wearing protective suits, and even if you're surrounded by orcs, you'll still have a chance to escape. It's up to you to see if you can escape with the time that the suit buys you. β
"I remember." Ruize gritted his teeth: "Crying really doesn't work!" β
"The orcs have a weak consciousness, they won't pity you, don't be stupid." Su Yu teased.
"You're laughing at me?"
"You're the one I'm laughing at."
The two sat on the wasteland for a long time, Su Yu took out the rope from the bag, tied the feet of the orcs, one by one, and then handed the rope to Ruize: "Try it, can you pull it." β
Rize took it with great interest, and with a hard tug, the orc on the ground did not move.
"It's not productive." Su Yu sneered.
Rui Ze turned his head unconvinced, and counted the orcs on the rope, a full five: "Su Yu, five orcs, their weight is about the same as that of humans, can I pull five in one go?" β
"Then you throw it away!"
"Impossible." Rize tightened his grip on the ropes: "I just have to drag them all back, and I'll be able to get through." β
"Good! We'll see, but I'll warn you that it's not close to the camp. β
"I can do it." Getting these five corpses was already a blessing to Su Yu, no matter how far the road was, he must drag them back.
Su Yu was not in a hurry, and watched him pull the rope hard. The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and the wasteland is already white, and the orcs are gradually covered with ice and snow, and Ruize's strength is gradually consumed, and his feet are stepping on the snow, one big pit at a time, and it is difficult to move an inch.
"Do you want me to help you?"
"Help? You are a girl, just rest! Rize gasped and let out a bold statement.
"If I'm not mistaken, someone was crying in front of me just now."
"Can't you cry when it's life and death?" Despite this rebuttal, Ruize was already embarrassed.
"Alright, I'll follow you."
"Uh-huh." Rize nodded: "Watch your surroundings and watch out for orc sneak attacks." β
"I'll do it, don't worry."
"You say, why don't the orcs go home and rest on such a cold day?"
Su Yu was amused by Ruize's words: "Orcs can't feel the warmth and cold, spring, summer, autumn and winter make no difference to them. Besides, what a home do orcs have! β
It's not that there isn't, it's that Su Yu doesn't know.
"How do you know they can't feel warm or cold?"
"I said they told me themselves, do you believe it?"
"I believe it...... You ghost, think I'm a liar, don't you? Rize struggled to pull the rope and didn't forget to chat with her.
What Su Yu said was the truth, but unfortunately no one believed it. She followed Ruize boredly, her feet on the snow, and the two of them were speechless for a while. She focused on listening to the sound of the wind and snow.
There was a faint shout in the distance, disturbed by the sound of the wind and snow, and it was even more difficult to hear.
The voice changed from far to near, from blur to clear: "Ruize, Ruize, where are you?" β
"Ruize, your brother is coming for you." When Su Yu heard Ruize's name, he was overjoyed, and stepped forward and dragged the person who was walking forward: "Don't think of people so badly, maybe your brother has some last resort?" β
Rize lowered the rope and turned to Su Yu and smiled. It could be seen that he was also happy to hear this voice. Maybe he was tired, he put down the rope, stood in place and grinned, regardless of whether the other party could see it or not, raised his hand and waved wildly in the cold air: "Brother, I'm here, I'm here." β
The snow covered the original reddish-brown color of the wasteland and masked the original stench. After Rize responded, no shouts were heard. It didn't take long for a tall figure to come out of the wind, wearing a black down jacket that stood out in the snow.
Su Yu saw the person coming clearly, and immediately frowned. Ruize saw the person clearly, and felt a sense of loss.
Chu Lie stopped, gasped for several breaths, and frowned when he saw a strange man beside Su Yu: "You are Ruize?" β
"Chief Chu, why are you?"
"Your brother said you were captured by the orcs, so I came out to look for you."
"My brother said I was captured by the orcs?" Ruize's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, could it be that his brother left after watching him be captured? If that's the case, then the family affection is too chilling.
"Yes, your brother said you were caught by the orcs and ran to the center of the wasteland."
"So Chief Chu is here to save me?"
"Or else?" Chu Lie said helplessly: "Could it be that I have nothing to do and come here to see the snow?" I still have a lot of things to do, and the supervisors and recorders at the first entry and exit gates need me to watch, and if they cheat, how unfair will this be to the hard-working students? β
"Chief Chu are you sure my brother told you personally?"
"Your brother's name is Ruixin, right?"
"......" Ruize couldn't refute, but he still didn't understand why his brother knocked him unconscious, and ran to tell Chief Chu about his arrest.
Su Yu took a deep breath, patted Ruize's shoulder, and said with relief: "Even if it's hard for you to believe, it's the truth. β
"Ah, you saved him?" When Chu Lie set his gaze on him, his eyes became affectionate.
"It's also his fate, and he just happened to meet me here."
"But Su Yu, how could you be an ordinary person who came so far away?" Rize had wanted to ask for a long time, and if it wasn't the center of the wasteland, it was far away from the camp.
Su Yu smiled: "Ruize, don't ask, one day you will understand." β
After saying this, she understood Lan An and Song Tangzi's feelings of saying similar things. The secret of the heart is not that you don't want to say it, but that you can't say it. She used to hate people with a sense of mystery, and now she's become like that.
"Are you okay?" Chu Lie's chest was constantly rising and falling because of the vigorous exercise, and his nose was red from the cold wind.
"Chief Chu doesn't wear a helmet, he's frozen stupid, right?"
"I'm fine." Chu Lie shook his head with a smile, looked at Ruize, and glanced at the corpse lying on the ground that was about to be covered by the wind and snow: "You killed this?" β
"Chu, Chu......"
"Why do you like to call me Chu Chu?" Chu Lie pretended to frown, glanced at Su Yu, saw her hook the corners of her mouth and snickered, and continued: "I am so tall, is the name Chu Chu worthy of me?" β
After speaking, as if he had thought of something, he stepped forward and grabbed Su Yu's arm and proposed, "How about our future daughter's name Chu Chu?" Lovely and delicate? β
"Ahem......" Ruize wanted to answer that he didn't kill himself, but seeing that Chu Lie and Su Yu were so close, he hurriedly pulled up the rope and walked forward.
"Chief Chu."
"Call me Ari."
"Chu Lie, although it is well known that you like me, you don't want to be so obvious in front of Ruize. That way, even if I make the cut, he'll think I'm out the back door. β
"No, no, I won't think so, you are very powerful, you saved me." Rize tugged at the rope and denied it.
Chu Lie looked at her with a smile and raised his eyebrows, his smug expression seemed to say, didn't you just come in through the back door? Did I open the door for you in the first place?
Su Yu knew that he was at a loss, so he changed the topic and said, "Chu Lie, this snow is getting heavier and heavier, and you are not wearing a helmet or gloves, can you stand it?" β
"It's okay if you don't say it, the more I say it, the more cold I feel."
"Then hurry back to ......"
"Why don't I hold you and keep you warm."
"Tsk......" Su Yu's scalp was numb by his words, and after a long time of normalcy, he began to say these tiger and wolf words again. Su Yu seemed to go back to the first time he went to the third circle of sixteen buildings to find him, and was locked in the bedroom by him, saying that he wanted to grow a baby with her.
When Ruize heard Chu Lie's words, he lowered his head, hating that he didn't have the strength, otherwise he would have dragged the corpses of these five orcs back to the camp a long time ago, so as not to be abused by Chief Chu here.
"You still care about me, don't you?" Chu Lie didn't get annoyed when he saw that she was disgusted.
"Since you're here, it's up to you to send Ruize back!" After speaking, he hurriedly broke free from Chu Lie's hand and fled towards the depths of the heavy snow.
