Chapter 22: Arrival, Grief
Next to the teaching building of the college, there is a quaint bell tower, whenever there is a major event in the college, the deep bell will ring.
Under the bell tower, a few weeping willows swayed in the wind, and a melodious violin song swayed in the wind,
There is a hint of sadness in the song, as if it is playing the last parting.
The students passed by here and couldn't help but be intoxicated by the beautiful scenery in front of them.
Today is a day off for the academy, and there is no need to wear a school uniform, so the academy is full of all kinds of costumes, ranging from classical to Western, and European to make people feel that this is a dance party that spans the ages.
A girl in a short skirt with light white lace edges ran in the direction of the bell tower, the girl's face was full of anxiety, a few tears in her eyes fell in the wind, finally, the girl found the person she was looking for, a boy in a school uniform on a day off, the girl ran over and hugged the boy from behind,
"Do you really want to go, brother......, don't you want a spring bunch......
The boy's body shook, his eyes turned red, and there was a hint of tenderness in his decisive eyes.
The boy turned around and touched the girl's head,
"Chun Shu is good, my brother will come back and give you candy to eat."
The girl shook her head,
"You know that...... How dangerous is it out there...... Why promise. ”
The boy hugged the girl tightly and whispered in her ear
"Trust me, I'll be back."
On the steps under the bell tower. A little boy holds a stack of papers in his hand, and below stands a row of people in college uniforms,
The little boy's voice came out,
"Third grade Zhihe, third grade Lin Chengyu, third grade Yattina, third grade Zhenlu, second grade Xu Youhua, second grade Sun Shanxiao, first grade Qiu Zhiyi."
The boy looked down the stairs and saw seven people standing in a line,
"You are the warriors of the Academy, for you, this is cruel, what you have to go through is not a trial during the holidays, you are going to go to the most dangerous 3,000 years.
I can tell you that the hourglass came out in that era, and we remember how tragic the scene was when we recall the past hourglass wars.
The task I have given you is not to take part in battle. It's about finding our lost members. They were attacked and lost in 3000 years, and we don't know who started this raid or what their situation is now.
The action mission level is S-level, and there is only one goal, to come back alive. ”
Just then, a little girl ran over and shouted to the boy on the steps,
"Principal, I'm going to participate too."
"Spring Bunch!"
The little boy looked at the girl and sneered,
"Do you think it's a tour? Leave now. This is not the place for you to mess around, and you are not on the list of tasks. ”
As he spoke, several staff members pulled her away, and the girl struggled to sit on the ground, desperately watching as his favorite person walked up the stairs. shouted loudly,
"Brother...... You've been coming back......"
——————————
I sat in a recliner in the teleportation room, nervous. To be honest, I was scared, in the previous meetings of the Moon Realm, Yan vividly described to me the horror of the outside world, my hands were shaking, I wanted to control it several times, but my hands still kept shaking,
A woman in an MTS uniform walked over, and she wrapped my trembling hands with warm hands,
"Don't worry, this mission is just a simple investigation of the missing people, and there will be no fighting.
My sister is a high-level third-order, and I will protect you when something happens. ”
She tightened my hand again,
"Don't make your crush the person you want."
Another middle-aged uncle in uniform walked over with a smile on his face,
"Haha, Ashee, when I think of the first time you went on a mission, didn't you cry a lot."
"Ahh If you mention this again, I'll punch you away. ”
The middle-aged uncle sat down next to me and said softly.
"Everyone has a first time. You're the only first-year student on this mission, right? I heard that you were exchanged with someone else. It's the little girl, right? ”
I nodded,
"My name is Teng Li, I was 37 years old when I was chosen, you can call me uncle."
A grim voice came,
"Yashi, Teng Li, the time teleportation point has been fixed, it's not too early, let's get ready to go."
A group of young men in uniform waved to us and motioned for everyone to gather.
"Hello everyone, my name is Tao Jingming, and I am the captain of this special task force. During the operation, you can call me captain, the specific situation must have been told to you by the principal,
This time, the team was led by Yashi, Teng Li, and me, members of the headquarters. In the execution of process tasks, I want everyone to listen to the command. 3000 years is dangerous,
Every mistake you make will result in the loss of your own life. ”
A roar resounded in the hall, and an elevator-like building slowly rose from the round platform, and the doors of the building opened little by little. A broadcast sound,
"The teleportation ladder to 3,000 years has been opened, and I wish you a satisfactory outcome in this time travel. Return safely. ”
Tao Jingming said,
"Everyone, please enter in an orderly manner."
The inside of the building is not as dim as expected, the lights are bright, and the walls around it are white.
Suddenly, there was a vibration of the whole building, and after ten minutes, the walls gradually faded, and the scene outside came into view.
We are in a small square, and the clothes on our body have automatically become the popular styles of the current era, which was jointly developed by ETS and the academy.
Ten people stood in the small square and looked a little abrupt. Fortunately, there was no one around, and the captain hurriedly ordered us to disperse.
Third-year student Zhenlu walked over and asked,
"Captain, what are we going to do next......
Tao Jingming looked at the instrument in his hand, which showed the vital signs of the missing members, as well as their location.
"200m to the left, the missing member is so close to us?"
Sister Yashi frowned and said,
"Jingming, I have a bad feeling."
Suddenly, the student who was searching in the distance pointed to something on the ground,
"Look, Captain, there's a thread here."
Our eyes were on him. Tao Jingming looked at the thin line on the ground, his pupils dilated instantly, and he roared,
"Don't move!"
The roar reached the ears of the student, and he hurriedly unleashed his power, but it was too late! A giant sword was hovering above the student's head, slashing down at him at an alarming speed.
"Help me! ″
The students of the surrounding students hurriedly ran to the rescue, but it was too late, the sword flashed, bright red blood sprayed on the ground, and the boy's head rolled to the ground.
The captain roared heartbreakingly,
"Run! Don't go to him! Separate runs! Everyone, run! We are exposed! ”
"It's already here, then you have to stay here, this is the order of the young master, and it is also the rule of 3000 years."
Looking up, a man in a classical white robe slowly suspended in the air, with a string of small copper swords hanging on his chest,
Tao Jingming said,
"Keep an eye on the surroundings, there may be an ambush!"
The man waved his arms,
"Don't look at it, there's no one around, not even ordinary people."
"Under the Dugu Sword. On the orders of the young master, I will destroy you. It's a pity that each of you will be banished by me next.
The young master said that the mobs should be killed in the novice village, and don't give people experience like fighting monsters and upgrading. When you meet the weaker, send the strongest. Do your best.
Presumably the highest level of power among you is high-level, right? Truth be told, advanced all-round. He's not a power.
It can only be said to be an ability. Your dear ETS, it's impossible to transfer people from headquarters.
I can tell you very clearly. None of you can escape. And don't think that ETS will send someone to save you again.
A generation. ETS will not send a third investigative team.
My powers are simple. A sword. Ordinary swords. ”
Sister Yashi raised her palms in the air and sang loudly,
"The Power of Time – The ...... of Time"
Suddenly! A white light streaked across her body.
Sister Yashi was stunned for a moment, her eyes were incredible, and then there was a scream of pain,
"Ahh Yes! My leg! Ahh It hurts......"
The surrounding members looked at her in horror, Sister Yashi's legs had disappeared, and blood continued to burst out on the smooth cross-section.
Dugu Jian held Sister Yashi's two legs in his hand and said with a smile,
"Don't struggle, I said the gap between premium and special grade is irreparable."
We all stood in place stunned, everyone couldn't believe what was happening in front of us, and gradually Sister Yashi arrived in a pool of blood, and a slight voice came from her mouth,
Jingming...... Run......"
Then the pupils were displaced, apparently ......,
Tao Jingming rushed to Sister Yashi's side, held her in his arms, and laughed wildly.
"Hahahahaha Yes, it must be a dream. ”
He looked at the beautiful woman in the pool of blood again, and wept bitterly.
The sword light approached Tao Jingming, he didn't hide, just looked at her who was dead in his arms, his eyes were full of reluctance,
"You must still be alive, open your eyes and look at me, we're going to get married, right? Elegant......! Elegant....... ”
In the flickering cold light, Tao Jingming was cut into countless pieces of meat and scattered on the ground. Until the end...... Tao Jingming also didn't say the name of his beloved.
The members who had already fled were cut off one by one when they immediately escaped from view, and blood sprayed in the air, forming clouds of blood mist.
A student knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to Dugu Jian,
"Ask for ...... Please, I'm just a student, I don't want to be the protagonist of any time-traveling drama, please let me go.
Yes, I can be your little brother, what academy what MTS, shit! That's the dog ....... ”
At the end, the student's body exploded instantly, like a blooming rose, reflecting the entire sunset.
The uncle looked at the blooming roses around him, his eyes were full of sadness, and he silently spread his hands. Then he said to Dugu Jian,
"Sword Pavilion Master, my task has been completed, and I would like to ask you to speak well to the young master."
I looked at him in amazement, the uncle who was gentle and comforted me, turned out to be ......,
"Hahahahaha, the young master never leaves MTS people, you don't know. You're just a lost dog now, and you dare to say anything nice to me, hahahahahaha. ”
The uncle's face instantly became frightened, and he said tremblingly,
"You...... You guys! I'm just a spy, I've been lurking for ten years, give me a chance! Sword senior! ”
Dugu Jian waved his hand, the cold light flashed, and the sword pointed directly at the uncle's body, and the uncle's eyes were full of unwillingness and regret.
"You...... You! ”
But he didn't say the last word after all, and slowly fell under the shadow of the sword.
Sister Yashi, the captain, and the members who had already been slain gradually disappeared, turning into a small sycamore-colored short sword.
There was only me and Dugu Jian left in the square, and the sunset sprinkled on me, reflecting me as red as blood,
"Boy, why don't you run?
I see satisfaction in your eyes. ”
"Because I saved her."
The Dugu sword circled,
"Haha, boy, it's useless to pretend to be crazy and stupid. All of your companions are dead, and there is not one left. ”
I didn't react at all, quietly looking at the scenery belonging to this era under the sunset, ETS will not send a third team, then the spring bundle should not come.
I turned my head to look at him, smiled faintly, and two lines of tears flowed down the corners of my eyes,
"How can someone like you understand?"
"Hahahaha
The last rose left in the square,
Blooming so vividly......
