Chapter 110: Prophet Jacob
"Rose! Jonah! I am back. β
Miss Crawford slowed down as she approached the tower, taking a few quick breaths before speaking in greeting.
"Laura! You're back? Rose quickly turned around and called out the girl's name with a little surprise.
"Oh, thank goodness you're finally back, don't always go after the enemy alone...... I can't tell if you're an archaeologist or a Valkyrie by profession. β
As for Jonah, although he had a long expression of relief, he couldn't help but complain.
As for his complaints, the girl could only smile stupidly.
Last night, the villages were in flames, and the sound of explosions and gunfire rang out all night, and the fire burned almost all night.
At that time, there was no place in the geothermal valley where order could continue to be maintained without chaos, and in that situation, everyone could only fight on their own, kill the enemy when they saw it, and find their teammates by the way.
But this is always purposeless, and besides, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and it is possible that a companion who was in this area ten seconds ago will go to another area in ten seconds.
So everyone didn't gather together, but scattered the battle and blossomed in full swing -
I have to say that it is precisely because of a group of players like them who are open to one against one hundred that they can forcefully suppress the offensive of the Holy Trinity, and finally repel it.
Even some of the divine operations in the anti-Japanese drama, they can be copied into reality, what else can't be done?
In the face of these guns and guns are accurate headshots, it is almost at the moment when the bullet is discharged, the wrist shakes extremely quickly, and this shaking gives the bullet a horizontal acceleration, thus forming an arc, and the werewolf who directly uses the gun fighting technique......
No matter how good the soldiers of the Holy Trinity are, they are only mortals with mortal bodies!
A group of people on their side who were fully armed to the teeth, and a person on the other side who was simply holding a gun or two guns, maybe only twenty seconds later, the former's team was basically dead......
- How to fight such a one-sided situation?
And after finally repelling the attack of the Holy Trinity, everyone found that a companion was missing, and they found the villagers who saw it and asked for it.
It turned out that Laura was angrily pursuing Constantine alone when he was retreating.
Well, what else is there to say, and it can't be said that it exploded, after all, that girl hasn't done anything thrilling?
As Jonah complained, some people are ostensibly archaeologists but are Valkyries behind the scenes......
But it's not enough for them to blow up this news, but it's impossible to say that they are not worried.
Until now, seeing the girl return safely, although the look on her face is very tired and depressed, and her eyes are a little heavy, at least she is not injured or has any other problems.
Only then did they feel that their hearts had fallen to the ground.
And after a quick conversation with Rose and Jonah, understanding the situation, and apologizing for his previous behavior by the way.
Laura also talked about the results and achievements of her side:
"I'm sorry I wasn't able to keep Konstantin...... When I caught up, he had already boarded the helicopter and flew away, I only shot him in one eye, the distance was too far, although it was guaranteed to be accurate, but the penetration was not very large......"
Immediately afterwards, Miss Crawford looked at Jacob, who was also frowning and turned to look back, and said softlyβ
"And Jacob...... I'm sorry I wasn't able to stop them completely last night, your people shouldn't have to do this......"
ββ¦β¦ This is our choice and our responsibility. β
Hearing that Laura had finally failed to leave the scourge of Constantine, Jacob only nodded, and then sighed rather heavily, his eyes looking extremely vicissitudes and far-reaching and profound.
"It's never been a good road."
"I understand the feeling of losing a loved one...... But Trinity isn't going to stop there, is it? β
Miss Crawford asked solemnly, staring into his eyes.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
No one said anything, but fell silent, for the answer to Miss Crawford's question was self-evident.
Sophia had clenched her lower lip tightly, her free palms clenched into fists, her knuckles rattling.
"Jacob, you should also make a decision, think of your people, and your daughter......"
Miss Crawford persuaded softly.
As she spoke, she also looked at Sophia, who was holding him by Jacob's side, her face gloomy and her eyes sad.
Although Laura had a hunch at that time and felt that they would definitely meet again in the future, she did not expect that the cold-looking woman she met on the night of her first arrival was actually the daughter of the local leader of the remnants.
Ross found Jacob and rescued him from the prison of the Holy Trinity.
Miss Crawford meets Sophia and rescues her from being pursued by the soldiers of the Trinity.
- The two rescued their father from prison and helped their daughter out of the siege respectively, which has to be said to be a kind of coincidence like fate.
It's just that at this time, Laura found that Sophia no longer had the heroic spirit and sharpness that she had when she first met.
Instead, there was a deep sense of anger and grief in her eyes.
After all, just last night, the Holy Trinity suddenly launched an attack, destroying and slaughtering the villages in the valley, which is simply inhumane.
Even if they were eventually defeated and paid a heavy price for casualties, the account would still be on their heads...... And that's a matter of course.
There has never been such a thing in this worldβ
A group of robbers rushed to other people's homes to smash and loot, but because they had a greater casualty rate in direct comparison, they were not responsible? Others are the perpetrators, are they the ones who uphold justice?
It's just a joke.
Trinity is just a large, well-established secret organization with a long history, not an American, nor a world policeman...... Moreover, even if they are the world's policemen, it does not mean that the victims have to swallow their anger.
Just look at Sophia's angry performance now, and the emotional state of the other remnants is probably the same.
Fortunately, Konstantin saw that he couldn't do anything, so he decisively chose to escape...... Retreating strategically, she lost only one eye under Miss Crawford's angry pursuit.
Maybe he was furious now, feeling that he had never been so seriously injured, and no one had ever dared to be so disrespectful to him, right?
However, in any case, he only managed to leave the battlefield at the cost of losing an eye, instead of being killed or captured by Laura, which is already a very good result.
Not to mention being killed directly, if he is captured, Konstantin, who thinks he is the chosen one of the heavens, is guaranteed to die an extremely painful death.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
After a long silence, Jacob closed his eyes slightly, opened them again after a while, and exhaled softly and said:
"I don't think...... They have a lot of resources. β
"Y-you're still not willing to change your mind?!" Laura suddenly furrowed her slender eyebrows slightly, what the hell is this guy thinking, why is he so stubborn?
Jonah and Rose, who had not spoken on the side, glanced at each other, and after each saw the emotion in the other's eyes, they shrugged helplessly.
If it had been so easy to convince Jacob, the two of them wouldn't have been here for so long.
And what the other party said is also very reasonable.
Don't look at the geothermal valley, the scenery here is pleasant, the climate is moderate, and it can even be called spring all year round, extremely warm...... But it's only in the confines of the geothermal valley, and at most it's a little better near the outside.
Because of the geothermal heat, many places are steaming, and there are even hot springs that are steaming all year round.
However, only here will people have the illusion that they may have entered some subtropical aspect. As long as you leave the valley, it doesn't take two or three kilometers to go outside......
Then the icy Siberian wilderness will ruthlessly and cruelly tell everyone - what kind of main theme is true eternity in this ancient permafrost.
Even Maozi, known as a fighting nation, the Soviet Union, one of the two superpowers, failed to withstand the pressure to take root in the depths of this permafrost, and finally retreated under the stubborn resistance of the locals.
You're welcome, what is the Holy Trinity?
The strength of the organization was squeezed clean, and it was not comparable to one-tenth of the human and material resources that the Soviets had invested in this frozen soil decades ago. And back then, the Soviets were driven away by the local remnants, how rebellious can the Holy Trinity be?
There will not be a second time that the remnants have found their base camp and forced the remnants to fight them directly, as they did last night.
As long as the remnants of the people are determined, they will break up the whole and start a guerrilla war and a protracted war against the Soviets...... No matter how powerful that secret organization is, it is impossible for it to overwhelm them in this land.
But this is actually a lose-lose way, and Miss Crawford does not want Jacob to lead these people to take such a negative approach to confrontation.
"What about the map?"
Jacob sighed again with a long sigh:
"It's a map that points to the ancient city, but they can't get it...... Besides, we can't afford it now, this war has hit us hard, and we don't have any more men to send to the Acropolis now. β
"Then we can go!" Miss Crawford said earnestly, in a straightforward and sincere tone.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"You're here to help us? Or is it to get what you want? β
Jacob didn't show much relief and relief, but gave Laura a deep look, and then asked pointedly.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became a little solemn, and Sophia, who was in grief, also showed a vigilant look.
But at this time-
"Laura, you're back?"
Alex's voice came from afar.
But he, Reyes, and Old Greene finally came over, and they had been in the village to help the remnants clean up the ruins and save people.
"Is there any difference in this situation?"
Miss Crawford turned her head and smiled at them, saying hello, then turned back to look directly at Jacob and said seriously.
"Besides, Jacob, didn't you say it before? As for the Divine Source, it was originally agreed to be given to us to take away......"
After a pause, Miss Crawford exhaled softly.
Immediately after, she carefully looked at the other party's eyes, and finally threw out her last trump card as if she had made up her mind-
"Now that everyone is here, I have a question for Jacob...... In fact, the legendary immortal prophet is you, right? β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
As soon as this sentence came out, the audience was shocked.
Even the expressions on Rose and Jonah's faces froze, and Alex, who had just walked over, was no exception.
The air was dead silent.
