Chapter Seventy-Two: Lance Outside

Lance Ackerman.

A top international mercenary and a former member of the Sea Lion Commando.

He is good at fighting and firearms, and has the title of "one of the top ten most threatening mercenaries" in the industry.

......

Twenty years ago.

A hopeful little boy watched his father go to join the army, and his father told the boy that he would come back when the war was over, and said before leaving—

"A true man should protect those who need protection. ”

From then on, the boy waited every day at his doorstep for the end of the war and for his father's return......

The war is over......

However, the boy's family received only a death notice and a pension.

"A true man should protect those who need protection. ”

This was the last thing his father said before leaving, and he didn't expect it to be the last thing he said to the boy.

......

When the boy grew up, his mother changed his name to "Lance".

The mother hoped that the boy could become a world-renowned man like the great writer of his name......

At least, someone who can stay away from war.

However, in Lance's heart, he only remembered his father's last words.

He believed that his father was not killed in battle, because there was no body to be sent back, and he believed that his father was just missing, trapped somewhere, waiting for him to come and rescue him.

......

Lance was eighteen years old.

He joined the army with his mother on his back and went to the most dangerous war zone in the world at the time.

......

Lance was twenty years old.

In the bloody battles on the battlefield, he charged forward every time, and escaped death every time.

The comrades-in-arms who were still talking and laughing together yesterday were blown up the next day, and they couldn't even collect their bodies, and it was at this time that Lance felt for the first time that his father might really ...... sacrificed......

......

Lance was twenty-three years old.

The war entered its most difficult time, and Lance's commando team repeatedly performed miraculous feats.

Despite the danger, Lance is still fearless, and he must carry on his father's legacy and protect those in need.

......

Lance was twenty-five years old.

War...... It's over again......

However, none of the organizations, **, and countries that were called "evil" disappeared, and they made peace......

When the army withdrew, "glorious" returned home.

Only Reims saw the city destroyed by the war;

Only Lance saw homeless children;

Only Lance saw the death notices of his sacrificial teammates......

......

Lance was twenty-six years old.

He was awarded the "Order of Merit of the First Class" by the military top brass and promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel.

Also in the same year, Lance filed for retirement.

......

Our war is not about protection, but about aggression.

Only the military, and only them, are the ultimate gainers.

......

Lance's mother died.

Lance joins the international mercenaries and becomes a top mercenary who fights only for money.

......

Years of war had caused Lance to forget what he was fighting for in the first place, until the Divine Pillar of Light suddenly descended.

The main god system, Darwin Games......

Lance began his gaming career, but he soon discovered that it wasn't just a game.

......

In the first world of Reims, it is the world of "Attack on Titan".

Even if he became a member of the Ackerman family, even if he had a psychological quality beyond ordinary people, Lance was stunned when he saw a giant more than ten meters tall eat a human in one bite......

The most terrifying thing is that Lance meets a demon.

There are other main god players in this world, and Lance was very unlucky and met the "Demon Venerable", the top of the "strong" list in the main god world, the strongest main god player.

In the wave of demons he set off, giants are nothing more than the rations of demons, and humans are even more insignificant.

But Lance was also lucky enough to meet a knight.

"Knight of Light", the nineteenth place in the list of "strong" in the main god world, he is a righteous person.

When Lance was injured by a monster, he rescued Lance.

"The Knight of Light will never take off his helmet!"

These were the first words he said to Lance, and it was under the protection of this knight, who was sometimes hot-blooded and sometimes second-in-class, that Lance survived.

......

"Why would you want to save someone who has nothing to do with you?"

Under the moonlit night, Lance, dressed in the uniform of the garrison corps, stood on the huge wall, and asked the young man next to him, who was wearing the exquisite silver and white armor of the Middle Ages and took off his helmet......

(The Knight of Light never takes off his helmet, except when he is going to sleep...... )

"Protecting the weak is the code of knights. ”

The crisp and clean voice was very much in line with the handsome appearance of the young man, but it made Lance smile bitterly.

"Do I look weak?"

Indeed, compared to the clean and handsome appearance of the youth, the obviously battle-hardened Lance is more terrifying, but......

"Yes, you are weak, but you are a righteous person, so I will save you......"

"Haha. ”

Lance smiled helplessly, he witnessed the scene when the young man used his strange weapon to kill the fifteen-meter giant, he was indeed weak, "Why do you say that I am very righteous?"

The young man got up and patted his armor, greeted the quiet moonlight, and said with a smile—

"Because you're saving the weak......"

Yes, Lance is about to forget that his original goal, isn't that exactly that?

......

Lance survived the first world unscathed.

He also found his way again, he wanted to become stronger and protect those who needed protection.

If the military would wage war for its own selfish desires, it would be strong enough to end the war in an instant.

If the "Demon Venerable" will release a large number of monsters for the main quest without care, then he will be strong enough to destroy all the monsters in an instant, including the Demon Venerable!

......

Later, Lance also met the young man again, and they exchanged a lot of information and worked together.

(Although Lance is basically the one who gets helped...... )

Until the fourth main god world that Lance experienced - the alien world.

Lance was originally a top-level mercenary, and he had a certain degree of defensiveness against the unknown, let alone under the conditions of natural selection of the main god.

Lance decided to be the first to experiment with the boy named Rams.

Soon, he confirmed that the other party was not threatening, and even felt that he was a little too innocent......

And compared to Rams, the yellow man named Murong Yuan is obviously more unfathomable.

Especially when they dealt with that combat specialization alien together later, he suspected that the other party had reservations when fighting with him.

However, after getting along with Murong Yuan for a short time, he also understood what the young knight who had saved him in the first place.

It turns out that when I see other people protecting the weak, I really think that they are also righteous......

Murong Yuan has a magical personality charm in him, and when he is with him, even in any unfavorable situation, he can still feel a glimmer of hope.

This is a hope that has never been seen even in the mighty "Knight of Light".

Lance felt that Murong Yuan was worthy of entrusting his teammates in the back.

Therefore, when dealing with the Alien Queen, he took out his one-time skill "Micro Nuclear Bomb" that he used to deter and save his life.

The same is true, when facing the attack of the Alien Queen, he will block the fatal blow for Rams......

Protect those who need protection.

I don't want to admit it, but that's it.

......

The eastern apron of the Aurigaya spacecraft.

"In this way, you and Lance will go to the Northern Emperor first, and I'll go and see Murong Yuan's situation. ”

"Rams?"

Lance has experienced several life and death situations, and has a tempered intuition for dangerous people or things, "Something is wrong with him......"

"Rams, what about Murong Yuan?"

"Be careful!"

Lance suddenly reminded him, and almost at the same time, Rams disappeared into thin air, and the next moment he appeared next to Ripley.

A dagger with a silver-gray glow stabbed directly into Ripley's heart.

Ripley struggles to resist with a firearm as a shield.

The silver-gray dagger shone brightly, piercing the firearm and narrowly past Ripley's dodging figure.
