Time seemed to stand still in this moment.

The people who noticed the change in the direction of the train station, no matter who it was, began to go crazy looking for cover, and even Ducky, who liked to charge, hid behind cover early at this time.

On the armored train, there was an earth-shattering sound.

A black, spherical projectile fell from the sky and landed right on the tall barn of Valentine's Ranch.

With a bang, half of the house was reduced to a pile of rubble.

In the town of Valentine, a small, lean middle-aged man let out a tearing and grotesque cry, jumped out of cover like crazy, and rushed towards the ranch desperately.

"Hey! Come back! Are you crazy? Lenny, who had been hiding behind a bunker not far from the man, shouted, but to no avail.

The middle-aged man hadn't run a few steps before a sniper on the armored train noticed his unusual movement and immediately raised his gun to shoot.

The middle-aged man immediately had a terrible wound on his chest, he shook his body, no longer had the strength to run, and fell down.

Immediately after, another bombardment was fired.

The Valentine Lodge was immediately transformed from a two-story building into a bungalow. This time, no one dared to run out, because the middle-aged man before was a lesson from the past.

"Phew! Bah! Blinded by sawdust, dust, gunpowder residues, etc., Lenny spat a few mouthfuls before he could barely clean his mouth, and asked the people around him suspiciously, "What did that old guy do just now?" ”

"You said him?" "He's the owner of that ranch, and he's spent all his life on those houses and livestock, so I'm not surprised that he reacts like this," said the gun-wielding townsman with a gun as he shook off all the debris from his body. ”

At this time, on the armored train.

"What are you doing? Then bomb and raze this damn town to the ground! The leading member of the Odrisko gang urged.

"This old antique can only shoot two shells at a time, otherwise the barrel will overheat," said the gunner, with a bitter face, as he hurriedly poured cold water on the barrel that had been prepared long ago to cool down the gun.

"Alas, I knew that the boss was unreliable when he got this old thing out," the leading Odrisco member sighed, then took off the sniper rifle on his back and began to instruct the other Odrisko gang members on the train, "Machine gunner, you two stand by the spot, protect the old antique and the gunner, and shoot if you see anyone rushing in this direction, the others, follow me!" ”

More than a dozen members of the Olympic gang immediately jumped off the train, each looking for a suitable shooting spot, and began to shoot indiscriminately at everyone in the town.

In the town of Valentine, seeing that the sound of artillery was gradually extinguished, everyone thought that this was the end of it, so the battle, which had been interrupted by artillery fire, continued, and the two men who had just escaped the artillery fire behind a bunker immediately scuffled together in the most primitive way, and these people, in the eyes of the snipers who were already in position, were no different from living targets.

The gunshots rang out, sounding almost hallucinatory due to the distance, but those who fell because of the gunshots were real.

At first, only the ordinary residents and police of Valentine fell, which made the cultists think that the artillery fire just now was not aimed at them, and later, the cultists in white and yellow robes were shot through the head, chest and abdomen by snipers one after another, and they realized that the so-called support they thought was actually the murderers who really wanted to destroy them.

But they also had no choice, and their leaders were also in a bitter battle at this time, and they had no time to give new orders, so they could only continue to fight, continue to fight, although the current situation has changed dramatically.

"Colm has a big appetite, he doesn't just want to kill Brandi and eat the town, he wants to take everyone here." Dutsy raised his revolver and fired two shots at the snipers, but in vain because the snipers were out of range.

"Arthur!" Ducky suddenly shouted.

"What's wrong?!" Arthur turned his head, flashed a bullet, and his right hand with the revolver knocked a cultist who was coming at him with a machete to the ground, and he quickly dodged and hid behind the bunker where Ducky was hiding, and asked.

"Did you notice?" As soon as Ducky tried to show his head, he was forced back into cover by the bullets that followed, and he said, "The artillery they brought with them seems to be antiques that have to stop for half a day after two shots, but if they are ready over there, this town may not be able to be saved." ”

"So," Arthur asked, "what are your plans?" ”

"Now, no matter what you think, you have to get rid of that train for me, understand?" Ducky shouted.

"What? Is this TM your plan? Arthur shouted, half surprised, half annoyed, "Now, with nearly twenty snipers aiming at all of us in the head, and two machine guns all the way up, you're leaving me alone to take off that train now?!" ”

"Alright, alright," Ducky was a little agitated at this time, "I admit that I really don't have any good way to deal with the current situation, but now that Hosea is not here, I can only rely on you, you are the most capable and intelligent of us, I believe you can do it." ”

Every time Ducky chooses to believe Arthur unconditionally, Arthur knows that no matter what is a mountain of knives or a sea of fire ahead, he has to go up hard.

"Alright, alright," Arthur said as he gritted his teeth and left the bunker, "Damn, God forbid that I will come back alive." ”

Just then, the artillery fire rang out again, and a huge hole was blown out of the roof of the stables.

Arthur turned his head to look at it and cursed, "Damn, I should have tied up Ducky and Brandi right out of this place right now." ”

Without hesitation, he ran to the town's gun shop, which had now become a makeshift munitions storehouse, stockpiling all kinds of firearms, as well as unused explosives and Molotov cocktails.

Luckily, either the Odrisko gang members who came here were not familiar with the layout of the town, or the cannon they brought with them did not have enough range and the gun shop had not been bombed so far, otherwise, if they came here, half the town would have been wiped out.

Arthur stuffed some explosives into his body indiscriminately, turned his head and was about to leave, but saw a white-robed man shouting and rushing towards him with a machete, Arthur couldn't react and was thrown to the ground.

This white-robed man was obviously red-eyed, and his sword was extremely powerful, but fortunately, in this case, the action was easier to capture.

Arthur's head was tilted, and he easily dodged the knife cut by the other party, and when the other party struggled to draw the knife, he raised his hand and gave the opponent two heavy punches, the white-robed man was in pain, and the hand holding Arthur's clothes was released.

Arthur was about to make the next move, but the white-robed body that was still pressing on him suddenly stiffened, plopped, and was lying on Arthur, who had just straightened up a little, and was pressed to the ground again.

It took a lot of effort for Arthur to turn the somehow dead guy aside, only to realize that the man had an extra hand axe on the back of his head.

Arthur stood up and saw that Brandi was fighting hand-to-hand with another white-robed man, his face was black and gray, and his only bright green eyes were still bright, although the suit on his body was torn and his hat had flown somewhere, but his dodge and attack movements were still agile and fast.

"Need help, boy?" Arthur asked.

"No," Brandi dodged his opponent's axe and struck him in the face with his right hand, causing him to take two steps back, "You're not hurt, are you?" ”

"Alright," Arthur said, standing up, sorting out the explosives on his body, "Fix it quickly, you just happened to be here, I need your help." ”

"Looks like he's in a hurry," Brandi smiled slightly, the enemy in front of him had just adjusted his posture and was about to pounce, he suddenly pulled out the revolver on his waist, and shot through the head of the white-robed man who charged with an axe like a primitive man, he casually turned the gun, put it into the case, and said, "Okay, what do you need me to do?" ”

Arthur looked at Brandi suspiciously and said, "You seem to be enjoying it." ”

"It's exciting, isn't it?" Brandi was indeed very excited at this time, such a big scene, he had only experienced it in the game, and now he experienced it himself, he only felt very exciting.

It's hard for him to feel anything like that since he said goodbye to his Steam completely, and he doesn't know if that means he has a war maniac in his personality, but of course, he doesn't have time to think about it now.

"It's frightening to see this kid's occasional exuberance," Arthur couldn't help but think, "but anyway, it really seems like he needs to be like this now." ”

"Hey! Hey! Brandi shouted as he dodged the bullet with his head sideways, "Don't you need my help?" Hurry up! Don't you think those sniper bullets are grazing our scalps? ”

Arthur came back to his senses and said quickly: "The artillery over there, if you fire two more shots, especially if you blow up this side, this half of the town will be finished, I'm going to blow up the train now, you find a good position to cover me." ”

"What?" Brandy, though excited, had not lost his mind yet, and he said in amazement, "Do you think this is a movie?" Are you the king back? ”

"What are you talking about? What movie? What is the return of the king? Arthur looked at him suspiciously.

"It's not important," Brandi was so anxious that he swore out, "Do you know that there are more than a dozen snipers out there now, and two machine guns haven't moved yet, you don't think those two big guys are there for us to watch, right?" ”

"So what?" Arthur tried his best to be confident and said, "Now we have no other way, trust me, we can do it." ”

"It's a fart!" When Brandi was scolding, a cannonball just smashed into a private house in front of the gun shop, which frightened him and Arthur into a cold sweat, and the two of them quickly retreated a long way away, hiding behind the sheriff's office, before Brandi continued, "Do you think you have nine lives like a cat, or do you think I can fight a dozen snipers alone?" Although those guys are not as accurate as Lenny, snipers are snipers, and the sniper rifles in their hands are not decorations. ”

"I believe in you." Although Arthur himself felt powerless, he still said it.

"I don't believe in myself," Brandi shouted, "and I don't want to say if I can keep you, if something goes wrong, I can't protect myself, who thought of this plan?" Is it deliberately sending us to death? ”

Arthur was silent, from the time he followed Ducky to today, he had hardly questioned Ducky's plan, and even if he had doubts, he would not hesitate to carry it out, but today, a battle that he may not have been able to experience several times in his life, made him think for the first time, is Ducky's plan really correct? Is it really okay to blindly follow Ducky like this?

Just as the plan was at an impasse, a familiar but unfamiliar voice sounded in the ears of the two: "I think you must need other help." ”

Brandi turned his head to see that it was the cult leader who had made a turtle shell for himself, and he was about to subconsciously remove the double-barreled shotgun from his shoulder.

Eren immediately raised his hand to stop him and said, "Don't get excited, bounty hunter, I'm here to help you." ”

"Why?" Brandi asked warily.

"Because to help you, we are to help ourselves," Allen said, "and the situation is clear now, and we should stand on a united front." ”

"But, this gentleman," interjected Arthur, "how do you make us believe you?" You see, your men are still fighting us to the death. ”

"I'll stop them," Allen's eyes were deep, "and the question now is, what do you need us to do?" ”

"There's no doubt that we need cover," Brandy said with a grim face, "and we'd be grateful if you could get the attention of the machine gunners and snipers while this gentleman next to me went to blow up the train." ”

"Sent to death?" Allen's eyes froze, then he sighed and said, "That's it, if you don't do anything, you will also die, but I have one condition." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Brandi said.

"If we win, you'll have to spare my followers, no matter how many of them survive." There was a little more compassion in Alan's tone.

"No problem," Brandi said, nodding, "but you'll have to stay, for you're one of the masterminds." ”

"Actually, I'm just a victim in this matter," Allen said with an invisible smile, "but after I made this decision, I was ready to go to jail." ”

"Deal," said Arthur, pulling a tube of explosives from his bosom, "you can cover me, and I'll do the rest." ”

"I'll get rid of those snipers as soon as I can." Brandi took off the Carcano sniper rifle from his back, put it in his hand, and said.

"Then no problem," Alan said, striding over to the center of Valentine and shouting, "Faithful believers! Stop! Don't swing your butcher's knife at the innocents! ”

No one knew how he managed to make such a noise in such a chaotic scene, it didn't sound very loud or harsh, but it was heard by every "seventh generation" of the cultists present.

Everyone present, whether it was the believers of the "seventh generation" or those on Valentine's side, all stopped fighting and quietly listened to the words of this strange man in iron armor.

"Loyal believers, please open your eyes and see, who is the real threat to all of us now?" Alan continued, "Please see, how many of our compatriots, how many brothers and sisters, have fallen under the guns of those we originally thought were allies? ”

The cultists, dressed in strange robes, looked at each other and looked around, and found that many brothers and sisters had indeed not died at the hands of the people they had fought so hard before, but had fallen under the bullets of sniper rifles one after another, and some had even been hit by shells, and their bodies were already horribly miserable.

"Don't you understand it now? We have suffered terrible deception and betrayal! Alan's voice suddenly became inflamed.

In fact, these cultists who have been deeply brainwashed have long lost the ability to think independently, and they only need the right person, with a little verbal guidance, and they can immediately follow the trajectory of that person's guidance to reach the conclusion that the person wants.

So, when Alan said the words "deception" and "betrayal", they agreed with it almost instantly, and they all let out angry rants and curses.

"So, what should we do now?"

"Destroy the betrayers, obliterate the deceivers!" The response from the congregants was deafening.

"So, what are you waiting for?" After Allen finished speaking, he took off the shotgun on his back and put it in his hand, shouting, "Charge with me!" Let the fire of judgment drown those who have betrayed us! ”

The cultists let out a cry of rage like never before, following Allen's relentless charge.

The snipers stopped moving when they saw that the fighting in the town had come to an abrupt end, and now they couldn't help but feel a little dazed when they saw that the cultists were all rushing towards them.

"What are you doing? Shoot, shoot me! The leader of the Ao Gang took the lead in knocking over a cultist who was rushing to the front, shouting, "The boss's order is to leave no one behind, including those freaks in fancy clothes!" ”

Thus, the snipers began a new round of harvesting, and at the same time, the two machine gunners were also ready, and the scorching tongues of fire began to devour the lives of everyone who rushed towards them.

"Brandi! Deal with those two Heavy first! Arthur pulled his revolver from his waist and said to Brandy as he began to charge in the direction of the train.

"Leave it to me!" Brandi nodded, charging toward the train from a different and roundabout direction.

Brandi dodged the sniper's cold guns and machine gun fire and ran all the way to the back of the ruins of the ranch barn.

This barn has been hit before, and only half of the building is still intact, but it is still a good location.

Brandi climbed into the barn, which was now a mess, but the other half of the house still had intact windows facing the railroad, and that was enough.

Brandi found the right window as fast as he could, and set up his gun, with a crosshair in the center of a machine gunner shooting wildly at the cultists.

"Although this is indeed a bit cruel, and it doesn't seem to be authentic enough for those cultists, but, one thing to say, it's really good to have someone help attract the gunner's firepower."

For Brandi, a player who is used to card slips, in the game, he has always been alone with the rain of bullets from the machine gun, where has he ever encountered a situation where he aimed at the Heavy but the Heavy did not aim at him? So, he even set the target somewhat leisurely, and then, with one shot, killed.

One of the machine gunners fell, and the firepower of suppressing the cultists was instantly reduced by half, and Allen used his iron armor to withstand the fire of another machine gun, and praised loudly: "Good marksmanship!" And one more! Faithful believers! Keep charging! Don't give the betrayer a respite! ”

The cultists, who were barely suppressed by two machine guns and more than a dozen sniper rifles, immediately burst out with unimaginable will to fight, they not only charged brainlessly, but even began to fight back against the snipers, although they have killed many people, although their marksmanship is worse than these half-hung snipers, although many of them have fallen on the way to the charge, but they still have no hesitation, because they only have one thought in their hearts, that is, to devour these betrayers in front of them alive.

"I really didn't expect that one day, I would actually have respect for a cult leader," Brandi thought to himself as he adjusted the position of his gun, "Anyway, the next shot will be to get another machine gunner." ”

The loss of the Heavy naturally attracted the attention of the Odrysko Gang, who apparently had two brushes, and he was almost immediately sure where the shot that took one of the Heavy came from.

He didn't give any instructions to the others, as the cultists who rushed at him needed them to deal with them as well, he just pulled the bullets out of the chamber and locked the scope into the center of the barn.

Due to the angle, Brandy was unable to lock on to the other Heavy on the first floor, but fortunately the ladder leading to the second floor and the platform for the windows on the second floor were still intact, so he climbed to the second floor as fast as he could, stood on the platform, and framed the last Heavy in the scope.

The gun rang out, and in view, the Heavy fell to the ground.

Brandi smiled slightly, and just wanted to put down the gun, only to find that the Carcano sniper rifle, which had made him very handy, actually slipped out of his hand uncontrollably.

He felt as if half of his body had lost consciousness, and subconsciously lowered his head to see that half of his body had been stained red with blood.

He immediately understood what was happening, but his body had begun to fall backwards uncontrollably, and his consciousness began to become uncontrollably trance, and the world in front of him gradually turned into darkness.

On the railway, the gunner finally adjusted the gun to a ready state again, and just as he was about to fire, a bright red high explosive flew into the barrel of the gun impartially.

The earth-shattering explosion even swept half of the roof of the nearby train station, and even those who were closer were blown several meters away by the terrible shock wave.

Valentine, Dacy saw the flames of the explosion and immediately stood up from behind cover and shouted: "The artillery has been discontinued!" Everyone, rush! Get the damn Odrysco out of here once and for all! ”

The populace erupted in unprecedented passion, raising their weapons and shouting, charging towards the Odrysco gang members who were still resisting.

Arthur got up from the ground, and Rao was also dizzy from the blow as he had been in a hundred battles, and it took him a while to recover.

Ducky recognized Arthur, whose upper body had almost turned black, and immediately ran over and said, "Arthur, well done, you really did it!" ”

"It's not my fault," Arthur said, gasping as he put his arm around Ducky's shoulder, "and this would have been almost impossible without the makeshift backlash from these cultists, and Brandy's two shots from the heavy." ”

"Anyway, you did it, we won, and that's all that matters," Ducky happily punched Arthur in the chest, "By the way, speaking of Brandy, why didn't I see him?" It stands to reason that he should be faster than me, huh? ”

When Arthur heard this, he immediately felt a sense of foreboding in his heart.

Seeing Arthur's face change, Ducky immediately realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Where was the last time you saw him?" ”

Arthur didn't speak, just pointed in the direction of the barn.

The two of them immediately rushed to the half-half barn, and the men who charged sideways stopped them, but instead of stopping, they ran faster and faster.
