Chapter 454: The Collapsed World
The black pillar of light that fell from the sky seemed to come from the eternal universe, connecting the entire heaven and earth, connecting the farthest distance in the world.
The entire Ironstone Fort saw this heart-shattering scene, like an invisible hand, choking everyone's hearts.
Some of the soldiers covered their mouths stiffly, not daring to make a sound, as if they would be spotted by the owner of the black feather in the distance.
Gadar looked at the pillar of light in the distance, closed his eyes, and shed tears.
There is no need to confirm whether there are survivors, and no one will be able to live under such power.
Russell died in battle.
The four of them have lost one of them completely, and they have become incomplete, like a red apple that has been bitten down, although there are no other blemishes, the color is still ruddy, and the taste is still sweet, but it will not be bought again.
Gadar only felt that a piece of his heart had been torn off, and this pain was ten thousand times more painful than a knife on his body. Because this is a pain in the soul, how can the pain in the flesh compare to the pain in the soul?
"Ahh
Anne stood behind Gadar, her hands ravaging the hem of her clothes, like a kitten who had made a mistake, and said weakly: "Gadar, the meal is ready......
With such a young daughter-like posture, Anne had never posed in front of Gadar.
"Get out of here!"
Gadar roared, unable to relieve his anger: "Don't let me see you again in the future!"
Tears welled up in Anne's eyes, and being able to take the initiative to soften was already the biggest concession for her, but even this could not calm Gadar's anger.
She left the place quietly, and even the soldiers of the Black Flag Army couldn't stand it.
Sylvia subconsciously grasped the dark hand, and her two slender ears drooped slightly. Feeling the beads of sweat on the girl in her palm, she knew what Sylvia was worried about.
He squeezed Sylvia's palm, and then said in a deep voice, "Gadar, I don't think you have the proper attitude towards your wife. ”
"It's my private business, you don't care!" said Gadar, turning his head sharply.
"Staff Officer Anne just did what she was supposed to do, she made the right analysis, if your troops go up, not only will they not be able to save Russell, but they will also put you all in there. Gloom said.
"That's not your business!"
"I have to take care of it!" Glow Yuan glared and roared, "Originally, these forces of Ironstone Fort would not be able to resist for too long in front of such a large base of the undead sea, if we lose your Black Flag Army again, the entire southern part of Seth will not need to!
The corners of Gadar's mouth twitched, and he was about to burst out, but he was not afraid of the eyes that he wanted to choose someone to devour, and glared back with the same fierce eyes.
In the end, Gadar retreated, flicked his sleeves in hatred, turned around and left.
He pursed his lips, he must not let the other troops go to death again, now the support troops have not arrived, the first batch of support troops will not arrive until three days later, these three days are the most vulnerable time for Ironstone Fort, in case Grant launches an attack, it is still a question whether it can be stopped.
"Don't do this to me in the future, I'll be sad. Sylvia buried her head in her arms.
She was still a little girl after all, and Gadar's attitude towards Anne made her doubt love for the first time.
"Don't worry, I won't do this to you, I promise. Holding Sylvia's little face, looking at her pear blossoms with rain and tears, she was extremely distressed.
Russell's body could not have survived under such force, it had already been destroyed, not even a bit of bone residue remained, and his body could only be replaced by a military dress worn during his lifetime.
Grant didn't come to attack, and reinforcements had arrived, giving Ironstone a chance to hold a funeral and a memorial service.
Eight soldiers of the Black Flag Army put on military uniforms and were responsible for carrying the coffin, and Anne, the officer who had been friends with Russell before his death, was still red, and it was said that she had not reconciled with Gadar yet.
Gloomy and Sylvia also attended the memorial service held on the school grounds, where the military band played mournful music, and the soldiers on the city walls faced the school yard in their military uniforms, one every five steps, and in the muffled mourning music, the officers took off their hats and followed the funeral procession to protect the spirits until they reached the cemetery specially opened by the Ironstone Fortress.
This time it was not only Russell who was going to be buried, but all the soldiers of the Redcoat Army had prepared a clothed grave, and the dense tombstones in the Redcoat Army cemetery trembled in the hearts of those who saw it.
This is the resting place of the Heroic Spirits.
Russell's relics were sorted out as soon as possible and sent to Stormwind City by the teleportation array.
Today, the atmosphere in Stormwind City is very dull, all the patrol soldiers on the street have changed into military uniforms for no reason, the black pressure makes people dizzy for a while, the people of Stormwind City don't know what happened, but the atmosphere is suppressed by the soldiers wearing military uniforms several degrees.
"Sister, today I went to the street and saw that the soldiers outside had changed into military uniforms, and Dad had been out since the morning, and he hadn't come back in the afternoon, could it be that something had happened?" Lulu was wearing a hunting suit, obviously just returning from horseback riding, with beads of sweat on her forehead.
"Wouldn't it? Didn't you say that the fallen angels and the undead had been pushed back to the south of the empire?
It's not been a few days since she last received Russell's reply, and Vivien is already missing her very much.
"You're a stupid girl who doesn't hear anything outside the window, thinks only about you, and doesn't know anything. Lulu knocked her sister on the head angrily.
"Hmph. Vivien rubbed her head aggrievedly.
Suddenly, mournful music began to play outside.
The people of Stormwind looked up in surprise and heard the mourning music that resounded throughout the city, and everyone was speculating about which big man had died.
Vivien was also surprised, but her mother, the Viscountess, called her downstairs, so she didn't have time to think about it before she went downstairs.
The Viscount returned, sitting on the sofa in a gown, and in addition to two officers in military gowns, one of whom was holding an iron box.
The faces of the two officers, the viscount crooked to one side, and the mourning outside...... Vivien's heart twitched, and she realized that something bad seemed to be happening.
"He'......" tears welled up in Vivien's eyes.
The two officers looked at each other, and the officer holding the iron box nodded, and then heard the other officer say, "Miss Vivien, we are unfortunate to tell you that on the front line of Ironstone, the Redcoats were ambushed by the enemy, and the whole army was annihilated, and General Russell was killed in battle, and there were no bones left. This is his legacy, and in addition, His Majesty posthumously awarded him the highest Order of the Sun Heroic Soul posthumously as the Duke of the Red, which was transferred to you since you are the fiancée of General Russell, and now you are the Duchess of the Red. ”
"You can go to the Royal House of Lords to choose your fiefdom and get your red cloak coat of arms, and your dress will be delivered to your home in a month. The officer with the iron box added, "Now these relics are handed over to you, Duchess." ”
Vivien's world collapsed, her eyes blurred, and the guy died in battle without even leaving her a last word. Vivien forgot the etiquette, took the iron box, and ran upstairs crying.
"What's wrong, what's wrong!" Lulu, who was standing on the stairs and wanted to come down to see what was going on, watched her sister run past her, enter the room, and lock the door.
Seeing the two officers downstairs, and then thinking of her sister's abnormal phenomenon just now, Lulu knew what was going on even if she was slow to react.
"Russell ......"
In the room, Vivien opened the iron box containing Russell's relics, which contained more than a dozen medals, a large stack of letters written by Vivien to Russell, which he still kept, and a portrait of Vivien.
The girl in the painting is quiet and tranquil, with a sweet smile in the corner of her eyes, and she is a beautiful woman who is alive and well.
"Russell, you bastard! how could you leave me alone!" Vivien cried.
"You said you were going to marry me! You don't talk enough! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you to death! I hate you to death!"
Vivien jerked out a decorative dagger encrusted with precious stones, a gift from Russell......
