After the battle.

Chu Guang had the casualties counted.

Of the 37 guards stationed at the Long Farm, 25 were killed, 4 were seriously wounded, and the rest were lightly wounded.

There are a total of 221 players participating in the battle, but only half of them actually engage the enemy, and many reinforcements from the outpost have just arrived on the battlefield, and the battle in front is over.

Except for the 4 people killed in the melee and 2 seriously injured, the rest were all minor injuries, even if you count the motion sickness, there are less than 10.

Since there is no irreversible damage, the injured player can just lie down in the training pod of the vault for a while, which is not a big problem.

On the Marauder side, although the offensive was overwhelming at first, as the players joined the battlefield, they were quickly pressed to the ground and rubbed.

A total of 107 people were annihilated, 40 of whom were shelled by mosquitoes, and when the edge paddled and led people to search over, one of them had half a breath left. Because the picture was too hideous, the guy on the edge couldn't bear to look at it, so he gave him a pleasure.

In addition, there are more than 40 people, half of whom are seriously injured and more than 40% are slightly injured.

The slaughter of those who had given up resistance was not an act of righteousness, and the wrench did not execute the captives, but that did not mean forgiveness.

It's too cheap to die.

They should repent with their labor in the ice and snow, and reclaim the wasteland north of Linghu until they pay for their sins or die.

Since there were not enough cells, everyone was stuffed into a warehouse, small enough to not even have a place to lie down, and the black ones couldn't see their fingers.

With no medicine, not even bandages to bandage, some of the badly wounded captives quickly lost their breath, and others, even if they were still alive, would have struggled to survive the night.

……

On the other side, the garrison of the guards.

In the house where the wounded are housed.

The boy with a bandage on his stomach was lying on his back on a stretcher, weak and only half breathing.

He had been shot in the stomach at least twice and had a piece of shrapnel embedded in his shoulder.

With such a serious injury, in the wasteland with backward medical conditions, it is basically possible to issue a death diagnosis.

There wasn't much sadness in his heart, he thought he would die when he picked up the gun, but he didn't expect this day to come so quickly.

If there is any regret, it is probably that I didn't drink the hot soup of the New Year's in the end.

I really want to know what it tastes like......

Just when he felt a little sleepy, he vaguely heard someone calling his name.

"Lu Bei!"

Trying to open his eyes a slit, Lu Bei saw a young man with a bandage on his arm running towards him.

“…… Xu Shun? ”

"Lu Bei! Great, you're alive! ”

Smiling weakly, Lu Bei was about to say something, but saw Xu Shun hurriedly take out a needle, and then prick it into his arm.

There was no tingling sensation coming.

Lu Bei even doubted whether there were needles or not.

Looking at his relieved friend, he hesitated slightly.

"What is this?"

"Therapeutic needles! The manager sent it to us, and it is said that we can save it as long as we have half a breath! ”

Xu Shun smiled and continued with relief.

"It's just time to catch up! I thought it was too late! ”

Therapeutic needles?

Lu Bei was stunned.

Can that thing work?

Just as he was thinking this, the wounds on his stomach and shoulders were like ten thousand ants crawling over, itching so much that people couldn't help but want to scratch them.

The pain sensation is starting to return.

That's a good thing.

Lu Bei gradually felt that his cold body seemed to be warming up, and his original trance consciousness gradually became sober.

His eyes widened and he was filled with disbelief.

It really works?!

It's amazing!

Looking at Lu Bei, who was gradually recovering, Xu Shun reached out to hold his arm and said excitedly.

"Brother, are you feeling better?"

Lu Bei nodded.

"Much better...... But the shrapnel on my shoulder hasn't been taken yet. ”

Xu Shun said.

"You're too weak to have surgery now, and I'm afraid you'll have to wait for some time to recover."

Speaking of this, he sighed.

"Hey, it's a pity that the pimple soup is all mushy, but it tastes okay when it's hot, do you feel like you can eat now?" If you can eat it, I'll get you a bowl. ”

As soon as Lu Bei heard that there was something to eat, he suddenly became energetic and stretched out his hand to hold the bed board.

"Let's go, let's go."

"Together?"

Before Xu Shun could react, he was surprised to see that the good brother who was only hanging with half a breath a few minutes ago actually sat up from the bed.

Touching his stomach, Lu Bei said with a smile.

"I don't know very much either, but I feel better...... You see, it's not nothing. ”

As he spoke, he slumped off the bed, urging his friend.

"Hurry up, it's cold again!"

It was not only Lu Bei who recovered, but the other three seriously injured guards also recovered with the help of treatment.

However, although the treatment needles can speed up the recovery, they cannot regenerate the severed limb, nor can they restore the burned skin to the same as before.

Lu Bei was probably the luckiest, and those two bullets didn't hit the vital point.

If it is a little down or up, I am afraid that the rest of his life will have to be spent in regret.

"Have you sent all the medicines?"

Standing at the gate of the guard's station, Chu Guang found the wrench who was directing the aftermath.

This benevolent brother is also a ruthless man, the polymeric material bulletproof plate hanging in front of the "Type Five" exoskeleton has been completely shattered, and his left arm and right leg have been shot respectively, but he is driven by the exoskeleton and fights tenaciously to the end.

It's different from the players.

They don't have a weakened sense of pain.

There is no second life either.

This bravery is worthy of at least a silver medal!

"It's already been sent......" Noticing the manager's gaze on his chest, the wrench glanced down, his expression instantly a little ashamed, "I'm sorry, I broke the equipment you gave me." ”

Chu Guang looked at him and said.

"Lift your head up, you've done a great job. If the equipment is broken, you can repair it, and if you can't repair it, you can replace it with a new one, but there is only one life, and I hope you can see the latter as more important than the former. ”

Four treatment needles, two boxes of anti-inflammatory drugs, and more than a dozen boxes of hemostatic bandages.

In the past, Chu Guang disliked useless intermediate blind boxes, but this time it came in handy.

However, this wave of consumption has almost emptied all of his drug reserves.

The big war is imminent.

The points seem to have accumulated to 120 points, so this time I will go back and throw it on the intermediate blind box first.

There was a hint of emotion on the wrench's face.

How expensive the exoskeleton is, he knows when he goes to the store and sees it.

Raising his head, he said in a sonorous voice.

"Yes, sir!"

Chu Guang looked at him and nodded approvingly.

"Then I'll have someone make you a steel cuirass to change into."

"Now, take me to see the wounded."

"Yes!" The wrench nodded excitedly and led the way forward.

Just as the two of them were walking towards the inside of the guard station, a young man was slipping out of the station.

The north wind was blowing outside, and Lu Bei tightened his coat with several holes on his body, and walked towards a little to the north.

A great battle had broken out here, and the ground was covered with dirty snow and bloody muddy water, and shocking footprints were the ground, not yet completely frozen.

Several reinforced guards stood nearby, supervising the dragging of the bodies of several prisoners of war to the clearing.

The bodies were easily recognizable, the guards were all dressed in black overcoats, and the marauders were mostly dressed in ugly furs.

The bodies of the guards were covered with cloth or something.

The bodies of the looters are laid face up on their backs, and trucks will be dragged away in a moment.

The corpse attracts scavenging xenos, which is more likely to bring the plague and must be disposed of in a timely manner.

Noticing the boy wrapped in an overcoat, a guard walked up and urged him to leave.

"Hey, what are you shaking up here, hurry back, be careful that the wound is frozen."

Lu Bei muttered in a low voice.

"I'll go back later, I'll find someone."

Looking at the expression on his face, the guard was stunned.

After a moment of silence, he nodded.

"Then hurry up."

"Thank you!"

After nodding his head and thanking him, Lu Bei immediately trotted in. After searching for a while in the pile of dead people, he finally found the person he was looking for.

Breathing pauses slightly.

Trembling fingers uncovered the sackcloth.

Glancing at the frosted wrinkles and eyebrows, Lu Bei's Adam's apple moved, and this time he finally believed what his comrades-in-arms said to him.

After being silent for a long time, Lu Bei silently took out a still hot lunch box from his arms and put it next to the old man's face.

“…… The captain told me that it took more courage than facing the claws of death. ”

"He also said that thanks to you, we reacted at the first time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"He said that our enemies are much stronger than the bloody hands, and it is a matter of pride to defeat them, and we have not only defeated our enemies, but we have also overcome our past."

"The captain also said a lot of things, but I can't remember it, I just remember that the pimple soup was quite delicious, especially when it was just scooped out of the pot, and the whole body was hot after one bite......"

“…… I'll leave it here. ”

Lu Bei was about to get up, when he suddenly saw the whistle that bit on the crack of his chapped lip.

After being silent for a while, Lu Bei reached out and gently tugged at the whistle that was bitten by his teeth, and took it out of his mouth.

He found an unbroken pocket in his scarred coat, which he carefully placed and kept.

"Thank you."

"I'll keep it for you."

Whispering, the boy covered him with a cloth, got up and gave a military salute, and walked away in the direction of the garrison......

[Full Server Announcement: The urgent mission is over, thank you, you have thwarted the raid of the Marauders, and the victory is yours!] 】

[Server-wide announcement: All players who respond to the mobilization will receive a bronze gear medal, and the team with the highest score will receive a silver gear medal.] 】

[Campaign rewards will be settled later, I wish you all a happy holiday.] 】

For the natives of the wasteland, the price of any victory is heavy.

But for players who don't belong to this world, it's just a game after all.

When they take off their helmets, they still have to eat unfinished dumplings, or reheat cold takeaways, and maybe they have unfinished work to do in a while.

Chu Guang pondered for a long time, but finally did not write his heavy heart in the announcement.

Today is New Year's Day.

There was a funeral at dawn.

The battle report can be sent again tomorrow.

Things outside the main story can be written in the setting set of the official website information, or put them in the game as easter eggs for players to discover by themselves.

They've done a great job.

Humans should not be tortured by dog plots.

Night Ten: "If you don't understand, just ask, your uncle is Hairing?" (Funny)"

……

The funeral of the fallen guard took place early the next morning.

The entire guard lined up at the north gate, fired three shots into the sky, and then loaded the bodies of the dead onto trucks.

In the wasteland, burying in the soil is equivalent to giving food to the xenospecies, and many xenos have the habit of digging and burrowing in the soil.

If you had a choice, almost no one would choose burial.

Most of the guards' wish was to go to the iron furnace like the blue coats who had helped them.

There are also people who want to be cremated, scattering their ashes in lakes, tall buildings, or places where they have fought and defended.

No one knows their last wishes better than their comrades, and those who survive will do the "after" for them.

Stay at the funeral until the end.

Before leaving, Chu Guang suddenly noticed that several players were also watching from afar, and they stayed until the end like him.

Less: "Say...... The NPC in this game is dead, can't it be refreshed? ”

Makabazi: "I think so, I think it's gone if it's dead, but someone else will take their place." ”

The young calf sighed.

"Hey......"

Makabarzi glanced at him.

"What's wrong brother? Early in the morning emo? ”

Less calf: "Nothing...... I just counted it and found that there was one person missing. ”

Makabazi was surprised: "Oh, can you still remember their faces?" ”

He's face-blind, and there aren't many faces he can remember in reality, let alone games with filters.

The only estimates that can be remembered are Xiaoyu and Boss Xia, and at most Luca.

Oh yes, and the honorable administrator.

However, the manager doesn't always show his face, and it doesn't mean much to remember his face, and the dark blue power armor is more representative.

Shao Tu Zi said with a sigh.

"No, that's all I remember. For example, the old man, every week on his days off, he would go to the lake to watch us fish, and I knew that he was a fellow traveler as soon as I saw his expression, so I gave him the fishing rod at that time, and taught him to catch leeches with a bottle......"

Makabazi was stunned.

"Ah......h Are there hidden missions? ”

"Nope."

The young calf shook his head and sighed for the third time.

"It's not a point-in-the-tumble thing, but it's a lot of fun."

"And when I thought that fishing friend wouldn't come again, I was still a little lonely......
