Chapter Seventy-Three: I Have a ...... Dream 1
"Haha......"
The captain chuckled twice, and said in a somewhat weak voice: "Xiao An, I gave you this sword, not to protect it. But...... It will protect you. ”
"Will it protect me?" Xiao An set his eyes on the sword.
The captain said: "Xiao An, you must take this sword well." Because...... This sword is not only the key to saving the southern part of Middle-earth, but it also has a lot to do with you. Even...... It can be said that the future of the whole world lies on this sword. ”
Wang Zhongchao couldn't help but cast his eyes on Nanming Lihuo behind him, I don't know if it was his illusion, he saw that the huge fireball seemed to be faintly a little smaller. After hearing the captain's words, Wang Zhongchao wanted to ask something, but when he saw the captain's current appearance, he couldn't bear to interrupt.
Xiao An took the sword from the captain's hand, and when he took the sword, Xiao An's head went blank. However, the Nan Mingli Fire Sword, which was full of cracks, suddenly let out a crisp sword sound at this moment. Immediately afterward, flames poured out like lava flowing through the sword.
When the flames disappeared, Nan Mingli left the sword body of the fire sword, and those dense cracks had all disappeared.
Looking at the intact Nan Mingli Fire Sword, Xiao An also had a blank expression, his current brain was in chaos, and fragments of memories were filling his brain. Compared to what the captain saw at the beginning, Xiao An had to see much more.
He saw that the owner of this sword had faced a big monster with a height of more than 100 meters, and he also saw the owner of this sword wipe out a million troops with one sword...... Countless battles, all kinds of enemies, and even monsters that are far beyond Xiao An's comprehension ability. Who is the owner of this sword? How did he go through so many horrific battles?
"Who is he......?" Xiao An asked in a muttered voice.
The captain, Xiao Jiang, and Lao Ding, their faces were all complicated, and the captain said, "This is ...... It has to do with your background. It's just, I'm sorry, I can't tell you right now. ”
Xiao An was silent, nodded, and suddenly, he asked the captain again, and said, "That...... Uncle Captain, did you know who I was from the beginning? I...... Isn't that one of your mission goals? It's not an accident that you're going to take me away that day, is it? ”
The captain smiled and said, "You kid...... I've finally learned to call people. Since you call me uncle, then I can't lie to you. Yes, you are actually one of the objectives of our mission. No, you are the highest in terms of task priority. It is taller than Nan Ming's fire sword. At the right time, even if you give up the Nanming Fire Sword, you must protect your safety. Will you ...... Escort to Base Forty-Nine. For this reason, even if the three of us take this life, we must complete it. ”
Xiao Jiang and Lao Ding both nodded seriously, the captain's words are what they meant, in order to complete this task, it doesn't matter which of the three of them will be sacrificed, or if all three of them are sacrificed. As long as Xiao An can be escorted safely to Base 49, it will be worth it.
On the side, Wang Zhongchao, Thorn, and Yan Xuan were all frowning, and all this strange thing happened to Xiao An. They all saw it in their eyes, and the captain didn't speak behind their backs, combined with the meaning of the captain's words, they already had all kinds of guesses in their hearts. Among them, the stinging speculation is the deepest.
Because he had worked in the internationally renowned mercenary organization "Reaper" for many years in the past, his piercing vision, intelligence, etc., were actually far more than his current boss Wang Zhongchao. Like the news of the major reincarnation teams, Wang Zhongchao doesn't know much. However, the thorn is different, although it is not detailed to the people in the main god reincarnation team, he knows a lot, but at least he still knows a lot about the Zhongzhou team, the force that once dominated the world and unified all the reincarnation squads. Of course, it is all innocuous information, and the real confidential information is not something that the cadres of a mercenary organization can know.
Nan Ming did not know the specific origin of the fire sword. However, one of the former captains of the Zhongzhou team, he still knows that he is a strong man who uses cold weapons and long swords. And he was the one who nearly split the earth's crust with a single sword, causing the largest undersea earthquake in history.
Therefore, the thorn is now deeply felt...... Could it be that Xiao An has a lot of relationship with that person? Are they blood relatives?
These speculations can only be kept in mind at the moment, and in any case, now is not a good time to discuss them. The captain has never revealed this in his words and deeds, and is obviously a little secretive, although I don't know why they are reluctant to talk about it. But Thorn doesn't intend to pick on these secrets, which can be regarded as a kind of respect for the captain.
After hearing the captain's words, Xiao An's body trembled a little, but he didn't know if he was moving or something else.
After a while, Xiao An took a deep breath and asked in a trembling voice, "That...... Along the way, you, you are so good to me, and because I am only the goal of your mission, you must be good to me? ”
Hearing Xiao An's words, the three captains were stunned, but ......
"Stinky Boy ......"
The captain knocked on Xiao An's head mercilessly, and then reached out and stroked the place he had just knocked on, rubbing it gently. At the same time, there was a faint smile on the captain's face, and he said, "You kid, why are you so sentimental at this time?" At your age, you should be like before, you don't know how to write the word worry. At the very least, you should have this kind of emotion after you go to junior high school...... Ahem. ”
The captain coughed twice, withdrew his hand, Xiao An silently touched the top of his head that had been rubbed by the captain just now, and then the captain continued: "Xiao An, listen up." It doesn't matter if you're our mission goal or not, as long as you walk with us. We're all going to risk our lives to protect you. Not for anything else, just because we're willing to do it......"
The captain and Xiao Jiang and Lao Ding glanced at each other, and then the captain sighed deeply and said: "We are also soldiers, and our duty is to protect our families and the country and protect the people living in this land." But after the end of the world, we failed to protect them...... Along the way, our mood is also suffering. But there are even heavier responsibilities on us. Because of this responsibility, we must be indifferent to others who need help. But ......"
"If we don't protect even the people around us, then what qualifications do we have to shoulder the mission of soldiers? Defend the country and protect the people who live on this land...... It's a good saying, but if we don't even care about the people around us who need protection. We...... How can we claim to protect more people? ”
