Chapter 11: The Truth About Heroes

In the empty room, there was only one person.

The red-haired girl sat on the couch with her slender legs restlessly leaning together.

She wore knee-high stockings, her fair skin peeking out under the black nylon.

It's a beautiful place that no one can enjoy now, and this place belongs to her.

The girl was praying.

Lorna doesn't believe in God, but now she's willing to close her eyes and ask for God's mercy.

But as soon as I closed my eyes, I remembered the conversation my father had with me.

......

The general stood in the room, and the father and daughter confronted each other:

"Lorna, you can't go with me......"

The girl stubbornly retorted: "Why, father? I can pick up a sword too! I have the blood of the Lancelot family in my veins! ”

"......" The red-haired general was silent for a long time, picked up his sword, held the hilt, and handed it to the girl, "Do you know the name of this sword?" ”

The girl nodded, and yearning appeared in her eyes: "The symbol of the family, the queen personally sent someone to find the materials forged - the glory of Lancelot!" ”

"Glory......" Lancelot Abel stroked the crimson hilt of the sword, and suddenly drew the sword, the crimson light flashed, and the space in front of the girl's eyes seemed to have left traces of fire.

Lancelot looked at the sword and let out a long sigh: "Lorna, glory is actually worthless, but many people are desperate for it, I hope you can find what you really want...... Rather than being swayed by praise or denigration from the outside world. ”

Lorna shook her head, her waist-length hair swaying, "I'm going to be a hero!" Like you and your mother! ”

Lancelot put down his sword and turned away, not speaking for a long time.

Lorna still stubbornly looked at his back, and both of them seemed a little helpless.

It was a long time before Lancelot said:

"Lorna, I've got to leave you a puzzle."

"What?" The girl was stunned.

Lancelot turned to look at her daughter, so beautiful, proud, elegant, beautiful, even the most magnificent ruby in the world could not compare to her eyes.

She inherited her heroism, as well as her mother's grace.

But Lancelot didn't want her to follow her path with Karina.

He whispered:

"What is the truth about heroes?"

This mindless question stopped Lorna.

The red-haired general waved his hand, pinned his sword to his waist, and left the room:

"Think about it, Lona, and when you understand the answer, decide whether you want to be a hero, or bear that price for the sake of so-called glory."

The girl looked at her father's back and gritted her teeth.

What is the truth about heroes?

......

Lorna still didn't understand what the answer to the question was.

In fact, she already had a guess in her heart, but she chose to deceive herself.

It won't be like that......

When you see your father again, you're sure to get the answer!

After waiting for a long time, she felt her father's breath.

Although it was very faint, she was very familiar with that rich fire elemental energy!

Who else but the father?

The girl got up excitedly, and regardless of etiquette, flew into the arms of the figure who had entered the door.

However, something seems to be different.

That chest is as reassuring as a father, but that heart is extremely cold.

Su Ling looked at the red-haired girl in her arms and did not interrupt her sweet dream.

Sooner or later, the cruel truth will have to be faced, but if you can indulge in a dream, who wants to wake up?

Lorna finally had to wake up, and when she looked up, her body immediately froze.

Immediately pulled back quickly, and the hard training since childhood made her calves full of tight vitality and explosiveness, and immediately opened up the distance between her and Su Ling.

The girl's mind was difficult to compose, and she took a few deep breaths, and then looked at the young man in front of her vigilantly: "Who are you?" What about my father! ”

Su Ling didn't speak, just put a few things in his hand on the table: "I was entrusted to come." ”

Lorna saw the things clearly, and a chill rushed through her head.

There was a family badge on the certificate, a group photo in the pocket watch, and the fire element crystal......

When will you be entrusted with such a precious thing?

When you are about to run into the abyss of death.

But didn't Uncle Heinier tell his father that he was all right?

"This can't be ......" The girl's eyes were blank, and she slowly squatted down and picked up the objects on the table, "Father will definitely be the same as before, although he is scarred, but he will return triumphantly and become a hero, and all eyes will be on it, Her Majesty, will leave a new mark of glory on the family coat of arms......"

Su Ling stood silently aside, waiting for her to accept this cruel truth.

After a short observation, he understood that Lorna was a proud and self-reliant girl, and she would not sink into grief, but she needed time to accept it.

The girl clutched the ruby and murmured, "The truth of the hero ......"

The truth of the hero is the inscription on the bluestone tablet and the lily in front of the grave.

And lonely families.

She understands now.

But it seems a little late.

"Think about it, Lona, and when you understand the answer, decide whether you want to be a hero, or bear that price for the sake of so-called glory."

My father's words came to mind, and I looked at the object in my hand, and I finally couldn't stop my emotions.

Su Ling felt that she was at risk of an emotional breakdown, so she whispered, "Miss Lorna, your father asked me to tell you that he will always be proud of you......"

The girl whispered, "Come here." ”

Su Ling was a little confused, but he still leaned over.

Lorna stood up, buried her head in Su Ling's chest, and cried heartbreakingly.

She didn't want to think about anything now, she just wanted a shoulder to cry on.

Su remembered that his white coat was wet with tears, but he didn't let go of the girl in his arms, let her tears spill on his clothes, and caress the long silky hair.

"Hmm, Su Ling, why is she crying so sadly?" Hanako asked in her mind.

"Because family is something very important to human beings, she lost it," Su Ling explained to her, "Don't you have this concept?" ”

The Rip Girl replied, "Although there are memories of human life, it seems to have been arranged...... Those experiences brought us nothing but resentment. ”

Su Ling's heart moved, the strange talk was like an NPC in the game, implanted into the set program to run, as for those past memories, what is the difference between those past memories and the background information in the game? It's just a reason to hunt.

"Well, if you lose your family, you will cry, I think Su Ling and we are family members!" Hanako replied with a big grin.

The rip woman affirmed: "I will definitely cry if I lose the doctor!"

Is that so? Do you have a family of your own? Do you cry because of the loss?

Su Ling replied softly in his mind: "Thank you......"

The girl in her arms gradually stopped crying, stood up, straightened the sapphire tie on her chest, looked at Su Ling, and in an instant, she seemed to have matured a lot:

"Why did Father entrust you with these things?"

Su Ling briefly explained, and Lorna scoffed: "Your statement is ridiculous! ”

Unexpectedly, the man in front of him in a white coat who looked like a doctor didn't care at all, and shrugged: "Believe it or not, but in any case, I and those monsters are enemies, and that's enough." ”

"Yes," Heineer walked in, "he's on the opposite side of the weird, so whoever he is and what secrets he has, that's enough." ”

"......" Lorna didn't dwell too much on the issue, "that's something for the Holy City and the Alliance to consider, and now, I just want to know the story that happened between you and my father!" ”

Su Ling shook his head: "No, it's just a chance encounter, and I just happened to bring it out." ”

"Father doesn't trust people easily," Lorna stared at him, "let alone something so precious. ”

Su Ling's face was calm: "I have no comment." ”

In fact, there is nothing to say, it's just that Lancelot hit him off at first sight and entrusted him to come back, but in fact, Lancelot was dying, and he chose a dead horse to be a live horse doctor in a desperate situation.

It's not outrageous to say that it's outrageous, after all, Su Ling is very good, and it doesn't make much difference to follow the troops.

But Lorna obviously thinks this is outrageous, how well she knows her father!

"You!" The girl was obviously a little angry and looked at Hainir, "Uncle Hainir, do you even want to protect him?" ”

Heinir, who was five big and three rough outside, became honest when he arrived in front of Lorna, rubbed his hands and replied, "Lorna, the dead is irretrievable...... The most important thing at the moment is to fight the weird, we need to gather all our strength! ”

The girl bit her lip, of course she understood, but she couldn't let go of her attachment to the truth.

What if Su Ling killed his father?

It's just that Hainier was right, she didn't refute, and silently put away a few things in her hand.

Su Ling looked out the window, it was dark, and night was about to fall:

"I guess it's time for us to go, you don't want to spend a not-so-romantic night in a place full of corpses, do you?"

Heinir hurriedly broke the awkward atmosphere:

"Yes, we should be triumphant...... The triumph of the Dawn of Fire! ”

Lorna coldly threw down a sentence: "Does Triumph mean going to my father's grave to read the eulogy?" ”

Hainir looked at her back helplessly, and said to Su Ling: "Don't care, Lorna's temper is like this, she is actually a wonderful girl." ”

He looked at Su Ling's clothes: "She cried in your arms?" ”

Su Ling touched his nose: "I don't have the heart to rub oil." ”

Heniel smiled with a sneer: "Boy, let the other boys know, it's good to have you!" ”

Su Ling said it didn't matter: "It's okay. ”

He was a little tired, and said bluntly: "Then let's go, I also want to see what kind of scenery the human habitation place is like in such an apocalypse." ”

Hainir laughed: "It will definitely not disappoint you!" ”

When the legionnaires finally cleared the battlefield, Su Ling waited for the helicopter.

The helicopter lifted him high into the air, and Lorna sat across from him - supposedly deliberately arranged by Hainill.

Su Ling felt that this guy must have misunderstood something, but he didn't care.

There is no emotion, so how can I talk about emotion.

It's just that Lorna didn't seem to think so, and looked at Su Ling with a cold face, as if to say, "If you don't tell me the truth, don't want to get close to me!" ”

Su Ling just turned his head to look at the fallen Rock City under his feet.

The black dragon, like a mountain, crouched in the ruined city, and it could be seen clearly even from high in the sky.

You can imagine how terrifying the dragon was when he was alive.

Has humanity been struggling with such a thing?

Su Ling is looking forward to it, maybe he chooses to join the human race, and he can experience a more wonderful experience.

He turned his head to look at the driver: "Where are we going?" ”

"Eternal Sun!" The driver did not look back, "A country that once symbolized that the sun never sets!" ”
