"Sue is right." Rose's voice came over the walkie-talkie, "Don't overthink Laura, I'll be waiting for you here." ”

"I understand." Laura quickly perked up, "You'll have to warn the others, Rose. ”

"Now is not the time to worry about them, you just need to find a way to come to me, Laura." Ross replied.

"We'll do our best."

"So be it, come on Laura. Sue, protect her and stay safe. ”

"I will."

Communication was interrupted, and Laura sighed slightly, her expression becoming resolute again.

Climbing up the cliff, Su Bai patted her on the shoulder: "Don't think too much about Laura." ”

Laura didn't speak, nodding slightly.

Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking down, I saw palaces and attics engulfed in flames. Bright firelight illuminated the vast expanse, and billowing smoke rose up.

"God......

Laura let out a low sigh.

Su Bai also sighed: "I don't know how many years old these buildings are, and now they have been burned down." These people are really unscrupulous and do whatever they want. I don't know who they are. ”

"Let's keep walking, Sue." Laura turned around and said.

Su Bai nodded.

The two of them went up the stone stairs, and there were attics built nearby by the mountains.

It's not lit yet, and it seems like the gang didn't have time to attack it.

Up the stone staircase, there is a bonfire in front of it, and on the left is a wooden bridge. A small waterfall falls from above, forming a small river that flows down, and then a waterfall falls down the cliff again.

Su Bai looked up at the sky and said to Laura, "Let's rest here for the night first, and then continue our journey tomorrow morning." ”

fled all the way, and the mental and physical strength of the two were greatly consumed. Besides, it was dark now, and it would be difficult to walk without the light of the burning buildings below.

"Okay."

Laura understood this and nodded.

The two walked over to the fire and sat down side by side, both breathing a sigh of relief.

"I'm so tired, I can finally rest for a while."

Su Bai put the bow aside and let out a long breath, only to feel exhausted all over his body.

He stretched his legs forward and lay his body back on the ground, his head resting on his hands and his eyes narrowed.

Laura sat next to her, clasping her hands and knees in a daze as she stared at the campfire in front of her.

After lying on the ground for a while, Su Bai sat up, took out a piece of cake wrapped in oiled paper from a bag on his body, broke it in half and handed it to Laura: "The dry food I found from a person just now, eat some." ”

Laura took the cake, and Su Bai took out another kettle and stood up: "By the way, I'll go get some water." ”

After saying that, he ran to the river, first drank bitterly, then took a jug of water and ran back, handing the jug to Laura.

"It's living water, so you shouldn't have any problem drinking it directly." He laughed.

In fact, with the current physical fitness of the two of them, even if there is a certain amount of polluted water, it will not affect them. The vast majority of potentially disease-causing microbes fail to break through their immune systems.

After eating dry food with cold water, the two of them recovered some of their physical strength.

Laura looked at the flames in front of her and suddenly said in a low mood: "It's like a nightmare. It's just that no matter how terrifying the nightmare is, there will be a moment to wake up, but here I don't know when I will be able to wake up......"

"Don't worry, Laura." Seeing the girl's sudden vulnerability, Su Bai held her hand and squeezed it gently, "No matter how terrifying the nightmare, I will always be with you until the moment this nightmare ends." ”

"I understand, Su ......," Laura muttered lightly, leaning lightly on his shoulder, "I don't know what I would have done if it weren't for you." ”

"No ifs, Laura. I've always been there for you. Su Bai said softly.

Thinking back on their experiences during this time, his admiration for the girls around him became even stronger.

In the game, there is no such thing as him. Everything, Laura is alone.

Put yourself in your shoes and think about it, if it were him, would he be able to persevere, Su Bai really didn't know the bottom in his heart. No, in other words, the vast majority of young people in modern society probably do not have the will and courage.

Perhaps only those with special training have the slightest possibility of doing everything that Laura does.

Although both in the game and along the way, Laura often reveals her vulnerable side. However, Su Bai understood that this petite and weak girl did contain an iron will and incredible potential.

Although he often comforted and encouraged Laura during this time, it did not mean that he was braver and stronger than Laura. On the contrary, it is precisely because of Laura's presence that he has given him this courage and confidence. If Laura wasn't by his side, Su Bai estimated that he wouldn't even have a problem surviving on this island, let alone confronting those militants.

Of course, he didn't take it lightly. With the blessing of that mysterious power, he is also constantly improving himself. Whether it is strength or will, he thinks that he has surpassed himself by a large margin.

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but whisper, "Laura, you are a strong, brave girl, stronger than anyone I have ever met. You have to believe in your own strength, nothing can hold you back. ”

"As long as you're by my side." The girl interrupted him and looked up at him, "As long as you're by my side, Sue, I'll be fearless of anything." ”

Su Bai looked at her and smiled lightly: "This sentence should be said by me." You know Laura, you gave me courage. You know, before I boarded the Forbearance, I was just an ordinary international student, and I had never experienced any danger, not even a fight. And you've at least followed many archaeological expeditions around the world. At this point, you are much better than me. ”

Laura looked at him with some surprise, and then said in frustration: "But you are helping me and taking care of me all the way." I wouldn't be able to hold on to where I am without you......"

"I said that, Laura." Su Bai looked at the girl with a smile, "I was able to do all this because of you." I used to never even fight, but now I dare to kill those people with a bow and arrow, all because of the power you brought to me. ”

Laura looked at him stunned, a blush suddenly appeared on her delicate face, and she gently rested her head on his chest: "I understand, Sue." Thank you for everything you have done for me. ”

Su Bai was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, Laura couldn't have misunderstood something, right?

Looking down at the girl in his arms, his mouth opened, but he still didn't say anything.

At such times, just silence is all that is needed.

Although he has never been in love, he still has basic emotional intelligence, and he has not done anything incomprehensible.

Just thinking that sooner or later he would have to leave, he sighed again.

Let's take it one step at a time.

Su Bai reached out and hugged Laura in his arms.
