Chapter 62: Passing Away
"The ruins of the end times are full of killings, betrayals, and perhaps because of this, those who are in darkness will not be favored by the Lord."
"The priest said, "The Lord loves the world, so why is the Lord unwilling to give them kindness and gentleness?"
"Lord, if you exist, why do you turn a blind eye to the despair here?"
"Lord, if you exist, why don't you want to drop even a little hope?" - El Diary
...
It was dark, but it was noisy, and the roar of insects still lingered in his ears, and he could even hear the sound of them tearing flesh apart, but for some reason, Al didn't feel a trace of pain.
Shouldn't death be painful, hopeless? Why don't I feel any pain?
When Al tentatively opened her eyes to make sure she had returned to the Lord's arms, she saw familiar scenes, loess rocks, boiling insect swarms, and... A figure that stood in front of him like a mountain.
I saw that Lu Ren was opening his arms at this time, like a goshawk protecting a chick spreading its wings, in front of him was the weak El, and behind him was a huge swarm of insects like an ocean, he was half-kneeling on the dividing line between heaven and hell, guarding the angel in front of him, his body was covered with scaly wounds, countless insect arthropods penetrated from behind him to his chest, blood gathered everywhere into a river, and even unknown internal organs were pulled out by the claws of insects, but his body never fell.
"Doctor... It's great that you're okay..."Lu Ren didn't seem to feel his pain, his bloody mouth grinned slightly, he was a teenager and smiled like a child, "I'm sorry, I just said I was going to go back on a date with you, and I may have to miss the appointment this time." ”
"No...", the experienced Al was at a loss at this time, tears dripped from her face like pearls with broken threads, she had lost the most basic reason, and even forgot to use the angel wings, so stupidly used her hands to plug the bleeding wounds on Lu Ren's body, trying in vain to stop the blood from flowing out.
Lu Ren looked at the angel-like girl in front of him obsessively, and even unconsciously stroked her face with a trembling hand, wanting to wipe away her tears, but his bloody hand left a bloody stain on that little face, and he immediately apologized like a child who made a mistake: "Yes... I'm sorry... I've soiled you..."
"No... Stop talking! Al couldn't cry at this time, she had already seen that many important organs on Lu Ren's body had been destroyed by insects, and she had died a life, with her medical skills and current equipment, she had no way to recover, and now she could only pin her slim hope on the Lord she believed in, hoping that it would bring down miracles.
However, this apocalyptic wasteland is a hell that God cannot set foot in, the battlefield belongs to the demons, belongs to the Grim Reaper, the darkness is the master here, the holy light of heaven has no ability to penetrate this blood, even the gods will fear this darkness, even the gods will shed blood here, and there is no way to bring shelter to its believers.
In the next moment, another insect roared, and its claws pierced through Lu Ren's heart directly from behind, bringing out a large piece of minced meat, Lu Ren spurted a mouthful of black blood onto the stone wall, his eyes showed a decisive edge, and his right hand directly grabbed the worm limb that ran through his chest, and broke it with a roar.
The bug is a creature that has no sense of fear, and will not retreat from a severed limb, and the wounded bug and other swarms will go even more frantic when they smell blood, scrambling to pounce on them, and in a second they will be overwhelmed.
At the moment of despair, a large and a small figure suddenly jumped off the cliff, the giantized Arnold roared angrily and flattened seven or eight bugs, ignoring their sharp claws, waving a giant fist and constantly sweeping, while Luo Wei took the Desert Eagle and fired three shots in a row at the most dense place of the insect swarm, the Desert Eagle modified with the magnetic track module was extremely terrifying, and a single bullet could break all the bugs in a straight line into pieces.
A strong sapper insect tried to take advantage of the gap in firepower, but Luo Wei grabbed his right limb, and the ensuing heavy punch was like a huge meteorite impact, and the entire head of the sapper insect and half of the worm's body were shattered with one punch.
"Don't fight!" Luo Wei reminded Arnold, then grabbed Lu Ren, who was in shock, and clamped the weak Al with his arm, and inserted the other hand into the rock wall with one hand, and began to climb up rapidly, and finally returned to the top of the flat ground again.
Arnold was now full of rage, but he still kept his senses, and immediately withdrew from his bulky giantization form after repelling several waves of siege from the swarm, and crawled back to the top along the starting point formed by some broken rocks.
After everyone came back, Luo Wei fired three shots in a row, but the target was not the insect swarm, but the inclined plane formed by the collapse, this large-angle inclined plane was easy for the insects to climb up, and it must be completely destroyed as soon as possible!
After dealing with it, Luo Wei quickly ran to Lu Ren's side to help him check the injury, but Luo Wei gave up from the first sight of the wound, because it was hopeless, Lu Ren's whole body was pierced by insects, and his kidneys, liver, lungs and even his heart were already broken, not to mention that in this kind of wilderness, even in a well-equipped rescue room, there was no chance at all.
Luo Wei looked at Al, in fact, this experienced war doctor should know Lu Ren's condition better than him, but she chose to deceive herself at this moment, turning a blind eye to those fatal wounds, and seriously holding the angel wings to rescue Lu Ren in vain.
"He can't do it." Luo Wei grabbed Al's wrist and told the truth she didn't want to believe.
Al shook off Luo Wei's hand with rare force, and continued to treat Lu Ren without saying a word, but the colorless wound kept tearing away the disguise that deceived her, and finally, she dropped her energy-exhausted angel wings and fell to her knees and wept bitterly.
Luo Wei hesitated for a moment, then took out the phoenix serum exchanged for C-level reward points from the space bag, handed it to Al, and said in a low voice, "This can make him live a little longer." ”
Although the phoenix serum is known as the second life of a soldier on the battlefield, this thing is not a miracle medicine to bring the dead back to life, and the injuries it can treat are limited.
Not to mention medicines, even Luo Wei's independent evolution talent - IPS super-fast regeneration also has a limit, once the injury reaches the "death line", the speed of physical destruction is higher than the regeneration rate, he will also die.
This is a real and cruel world, and the so-called immortality is just a ridiculous conjecture.
Originally, the precious elixir of phoenix serum should not be used on a mortal person, because this is a meaningless thing in Luo Wei's values, but in fact, there is no difference between living a few more minutes here and living a few minutes less, and living a few more minutes will increase the pain.
Just when Al was crying unknowingly, Lu Ren, who was dying, suddenly grabbed Luo Wei's wrist, this mercenary's mouth kept bubbling with black blood, his eyelids were as heavy as iron, and every blink was extremely laborious, no one knew if he would close his eyes forever in the next second, he grabbed Luo Wei tightly, his wrist kept shaking due to excessive force, and said vaguely: "Please... Take her... Go back..."
"Yes." Luo Wei is not good at expressing his feelings, so he can only use the simplest language to guarantee that he can leave with peace of mind.
After Lu Ren heard this, the strength of his whole body collapsed at this moment, and he was relieved, but his eyes were looking at the tearful Al all the time, the young man showed a last smile, and said nostalgically: "In the next life... May you and I be born in a time of peace and prosperity, when the time comes... Let's go on another date..."
After Lu Ren finished speaking, the color of life in his eyes dimmed rapidly, he looked up at the sky, his godless eyes were full of dazedness as if he was in another world, like a child who had just woken up in the morning, and said faintly: "It's like a dream..."
When Al came back to his senses, Lu Ren was already dead, and along with his former war career, the iron man was tender, and buried everything in the wind and sand of the wilderness along with his own life...
