Chapter 68: A Broken World (15)

None of us can confirm whether there is a "god" in this world, but in a certain era and a certain nation, we can all confirm that there are heroes who belong to that era and that nation. Kemal to Tulzi, Lenin to Ennoth, BolΓ­var to South America, Charles de Gaulle to France, Lincoln to America, and Faculty to China.

These great heroes, like fate arrangement, shouldered their own mission, overcame obstacles, and were reborn again and again, saving a nation and even a country with an extremely dramatic life.

We always think that these people are the chosen ones, but we don't know that behind every great man there are countless martyrs who fought bloodily for the nation and the country, they go forward one after another, and move forward, but the vast majority of them did not stand to the end, and their lives came to an abrupt end, but the torch they lit was not extinguished, even if it was weak, but it also illuminated the continued unfinished business of the latecomers.

The short but extraordinary 45-year life of Dr. Hazard, the leader of the queer German independence movement, confirms this statement. - Cheng Mo

The sound of the cannon gradually subsided, leaving only the sound of gunfire beating on the window lattices like a torrential rain.

The moon is getting lighter, the dark blue sky is fading, and the clouds that were originally hidden in the canopy are becoming more and more obvious, like marshmallows piled up over the square.

Everyone in the square looked at Dr. Hazard, and all eyes were on him, as if eager to know what he would do, about the fate of queer Germans.

At this moment, the world takes on a different kind of silence that makes people palpitate.

"If a big man like you had told me a few years ago that you could help us queer Germans......." Dr. Hazard looked at Costa Lucas, who was standing directly across from him, "I would have believed that if you pay the price, you get what you deserve." ”

"Doctor Hazard, you can still believe it. Costa Lucas was on crutches in both hands, and his expression was very sincere and sincere, not at all high-minded. The cold wind of the early morning blew the coat of his white gown, and he looked so elegant and humble, like a trustworthy person, "Maybe I can't help the queer people build a country, but I can easily help you solve the current predicament." He paused, smiled, and said, "But it's all in your mind." ”

Dr. Hazard also responded to Costa Lucas with a smile, and he said without humility or arrogance: "So what you mean by saving is to push us queer Germans into the fire pit first, and then ask us if we need help?"

"No, no......" Costa Lucas shook his head, "I didn't mean to target you queer Germans, it was the two strangers who hid their true identities that really led you into the fire. The two of them are the most vicious Black Death criminals, is it necessary for you queer Germans to give your lives for criminals you don't know?"

Despite the appearance of sickness, Dr. Hazard stood upright, and he said in a resolute tone: "Mr. Louis, I have learned two things over the years, the first is not to trust the lighthouse, and the second is not to trust others. Then he changed his words and said earnestly, "What's more, we really haven't been to a stranger here." ”

"Really?" Costa Lucas raised his hand and snapped his fingers as he stared at the white bandage wrapped around Dr. Hazard's head.

Suddenly, a fire broke out on Dr. Hazard's head, and Dr. Hazard, who was standing at the edge of the square, was like a candle in the wind for a second, but the flame flickered in the cold wind, only to burn the gauze wrapped around his head, revealing a circle of centipede-like silver scars on the side of his skull.

"It's a perfect incision closure. Costa Lucas appeared at Dr. Hazard's side like a ghost, and he touched the circle of titanium connectors on Dr. Hazard's head, each staple-shaped connector was perfectly spaced apart, forming an extremely regular rectangle on the side of the bare skull, which did not look like it was nailed by hand, like the work of a machine. He took a deep breath, tilted his head slightly, and said with a look of fascination and pleasure: "Don't talk about this tight incision, just say that this titanium nail is so neat that it makes OCD extremely comfortable, you know that it is...... Wendy's modus operandi. ”

When Costa Lucas finished his second sentence, the queer soldiers realized that the man in white had taken full control of their leader, Dr. Adjara, and the sound of guns being raised.

However, the dense barrel of the gun did not make the man in white feel the slightest fear, and he still calmly stared at the surgical incision on Dr. Eden Hazard's skull with appreciative eyes, as if admiring a peerless famous painting.

The tense and dreary atmosphere lasted for a few moments before Costa Lucas withdrew his gaze. He first took off his top hat and pressed it to his chest and bowed slightly, and said gentlemanly: "I'm very sorry for such a rude act." Then he straightened up, put on his top hat, and said solemnly, "I have great admiration for your loyalty to your friend." But I think our time is precious to each other, and there is no need for us to delay the transaction because of lies. ”

Even after being caught by Costa Lucas, Dr. Hazard's face remained the same, and he said in a deep voice: "I forgive you for your rudeness, whether you mean it or not, we queer Germans are grateful." His tone grew cold, "But please don't negotiate deals with us queer Germans in this way, we welcome friends with good intentions, but we are not afraid of any enemy threats." ”

In the face of Dr. Hazard's tough words, Costa Lucas lowered his voice more and more, "Dr. Hazard, what kind of sincerity do you think I should express in order to convince you that I am a reliable business partner?"

"If you are sincere in your deal, I will not ask for the elimination of all the terrorist coalition forces, as long as you eliminate half of them now as a deposit, I think you are indeed sincere. Dr. Hazard said lightly.

Costa Lucas shook his head, "Your offer is too high, even if it's ISIS, it's tens of thousands of lives." It would be too cruel for me to prove it with such bloody means. I can't do that, but can we let them retreat a hundred kilometers away, so that you have enough time to retreat?"

Doctor Hazard sneered, "If it weren't for your lighthouse people, we would have been able to beat this rabble to escape." It would be a shame to use such conditions to express your sincerity!"

Costa Lucas sighed and disappeared into the side of Dr. Hazard in front of everyone, he returned to his place, and said with Shi Shiran: "It seems that there is no way for us to communicate with each other?"

"It's you who chose the wrong way in the first place. β€œ

Costa Lucas shook his head helplessly, "Since you don't want to believe my explanation, but want to use the sacrifice of your clan to fulfill your own faith, I won't force you, after all, I, Louis Howard, am just a businessman, not a robber." ”

"If you say that," said Doctor Hazard, "please do not pretend to be merciful to you Anglo-Saxons, for I have long since grown tired of your pretending to be fair and just." ”

The more detached Dr. Hazard's attitude became, the more sincere Kosta Lucas's tone became, "Even if the conversation is not speculation, I will still open the door to a trade for you, you can call me by name as long as you want to trade, I can end this war at any time, and get the ISIS coalition forces out of this city, and I can also give you some material aid." Or if someone else knows about those two strangers, they can also make a deal with me, of course, all this is time-sensitive, if I find those two strangers myself, then the deal will naturally not work......."

As soon as Dr. Hazard opened his mouth to firmly deny Costa Lucas's naked seduction, the man in white waved the cane in his hand, and the sexy red-haired female secretary hid in the cold morning light, disappearing, as if they had never appeared.

At this moment, the distant gunfire stopped, as if the pause button of time had been pressed, and before the queer Germans in the square could come out of the sudden meeting, this very inexplicable conversation was over.

People who don't understand English haven't even figured out what is happening, but they just see an angelic man and woman, coming from the void and returning to the void.

When they came to their senses, the queer soldiers looked at each other and began to ask each other what had just happened.

Doctor Hazard exclaimed, "Those two men are devils from Hell! What they say is a lie to deceive people into depravity, and the ultimate goal is to drag all of us queer Germans into Hellfire, and we must not believe them." There is no doubt that they are Ibris, and they will do whatever it takes to achieve their ends, and all the temptations we encounter in real life are his masterpieces. Therefore, we must use the wisdom given to us by the Creator to distinguish between good and evil from right and wrong, so as to stay away from the temptations of Ibris, and we must not be deceived, let alone become their companions....." His voice was so loud that it was impossible to tell that it was a man who had just undergone a major operation, and only by listening carefully could we perceive the trace of exhaustion in his voice," Now is the last moment for the Creator to test us queer Germans, and although war is a terrible thing and we have been wounded, as long as we uphold a righteous heart, for the sake of our family, for our nation, and for the fight against our enemies, our blood and sacrifice will please the Creator, and we will prove with an iron will that queer Germans are the most respected warriors in the entire Middle Eastern world......"

Dr. Hazard hammered his chest and whispered, "For the sake of queer Germans!"

The warriors also hammered their chests, followed by their leader roaring, "For the queer Germans!"

Dr. Hazard closed his eyes and raised his hands high, "The Creator is above!"

"The Creator is above!"

The soldiers raised their guns, the loud shouts rang out in the sky, the morning star fell into the whitening sky, and the engine roar of the tank rang out in the depths of the streets.

Everyone present knew that this would be their last dawn.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Standing atop a towering minaret, Costa Lucas indifferently overlooking the frenetic scene in the square, like a boring human observing the boring behavior of ants.

And his secretary, Shisch, after giving Yusuf the order to intercept the queer Germans who were about to flee the town, whispered, "My lord. ”

"Huh?"

Rash asked puzzledly: "Since you have determined that Athena has been here, why don't you just use forceful means to force them to tell the truth, but instead whisper so many things to make yourself bored, and go to great lengths to force those queer Germans who want to leave back first, and let them fight with the ISIS coalition forces?"

"Xi Shi, if you ask this, it can only show that you haven't done your homework well!"

"I got to know Dr. Hazard and knew that he was a nationalist with great ambitions, a clear mind and a tough personality. "That's why I think there's something wrong with your strategy." β€œ

Costa Lucas chuckled, "And do you know what kind of people are around him?"

"Of course, Dr. Hazard has four generals under his command, and the most famous of them, the holy warrior sharpshooter Mueller, has died. The remaining three are Tamer who leads the Euphrates Liberation Brigade, Mahmoud who leads the Raqqa Revolutionary Brigade, and Hoda who leads the Women's Defense Army, among which the more famous one is the Women's Defense Army Hoda, because she is a woman, in the Middle East, ISIS is most afraid of fighting this queer female army, because in Saint Laurent, you can't go to heaven if you are killed by a woman. Mahmoud, who led the Raqqa Revolutionary Brigade, was the least famous, but his role in the Kurdish army was the most indispensable, as he was in charge of intelligence for the Kurds in Syria and was known as the Queer Fox of Germany. However, second only to Dr. Hazard in the status of queer Germans, Tamer, who fought the most fiercely, is known as the Kurdish Eagle, this person is Dr. Hazard's right and left hand, whether it is to manage the army or fight the war, he has a hand, and is a die-hard supporter of Dr. Hazard...... Both the Xuzheng Mansion and ISIS have offered tens of millions of dollars in rewards for Dr. Hazard's head, and even the Lighthouse intelligence agency has tried to rebel against these three people, but Dr. Eden Hazard is still alive and well, which is enough to prove that all three of them are loyal to Dr. Hazard.......

"As an intelligence worker, the most common mistake you make is to develop a habitual mindset that equates the content of information with reality, thus forgetting that people and things are subject to change. If you follow what you learned, you will naturally feel that Hoda, who is a woman, is the most likely candidate to be rebelled. But in my opinion, it's not so......" Costa Lucas looked at Shishi and said meaningfully, "Shishi, you must know that there are absolutely no perfect people in this world, and those who try to pursue perfection seem to be impeccable, but they themselves are the biggest loopholes, especially mortals who try to become saints by pursuing moral flaws, and they are easily crushed by the hearts of real people, you must know that there is often only a thin line between hard and fragile." β€œ

Shishi pondered for a moment and said, "I don't quite understand what you mean. β€œ

"Then who do you think would come to me against Dr. Hazard's will?"

"Since you said earlier that Hoda seems to be the most likely to be rebelled, then you can definitely rule her out first. Mahmoud and Tamer, of course, I think it will be Mahmoud, who works in intelligence. β€œ

"You think so, and with common sense, almost everyone who works in intelligence has a problem, that is, they never trust anyone, but ......" Costa Lucas turned, "I'm sure it must be Tamer who came to me." β€œ

Shish was stunned for a moment, and then said with some consternation, "No way! Tamer is the first hardliner to follow Dr. Hazard from birth to death." Anyone can betray Dr. Hazard, but he is absolutely impossible to ......"

"Then let's make a bet. β€œ

Shishi didn't answer, she looked down at the battle that had already begun in the square. Originally, the ISIS coalition had tanks and armored vehicles, which could offset the geographical advantage of the queer Germans, but although the ISIS coalition was a terrorist, it was also a terrorist with extreme beliefs, so they were naturally reluctant to shell the temple, which made tanks and armored vehicles completely useless, and could only be used as a fortress against bullets.

Tanks and armoured vehicles that could not fire were live targets in squares with no concealment, and before they could advance a few steps, they were hit by queer anti-tank weapons. Reluctant to waste any more expensive weapons of war, the ISIS coalition chose a temporary ceasefire and surrounded the temple from all sides.

To the south of the town, the Chosen One led an air superiority army to intercept it, and the Quer Germans who wanted to evacuate the town fired their Stinger missiles in an attempt to shoot down three Apaches, but Yusuf easily disintegrated them with his skills, and when the armed pickup truck loaded with anti-aircraft machine guns was targeted by the drone missile, the Queer Germans' plan to evacuate was completely bankrupt.

Luckily, Yusuf's goal was not to massacre, but to drive them back to fight the ISIS coalition, so the poor queer people were manipulated ants and had to turn back to the temple with its strong fortifications and large quantities of supplies.

The ISIS coalition forces, who learned the information, hurriedly transferred tanks and armored vehicles to the way back from the Querde, and set up a defensive line on the other side's three necessary roads, forming a two-sided encirclement with Yusuf's troops. For a while, the originally lively temple square was quiet.

However, it is clear that the format is becoming more and more unfavorable to the queer people, and the tenacious defenders of the temple are about to face a dilemma: when the ISIS coalition forces and the large queer forces trying to withdraw to the temple fight, will they continue to hold out or take the initiative?

Taking the initiative means giving up a huge geographical advantage and attacking the enemy's strengths with one's own shortcomings. If you continue to hold on, you can only watch your own large army be surrounded and annihilated, and their end will only be to sit back and wait for death.

All in all, the fate of the Queer Armed Forces is basically sealed. Unless something happens to a miracle or someone comes to her boss, Costa Lucas, to close the deal.

And his boss, the forty-four demon god Shaxx, who can penetrate people's hearts, pretends to keep his promise and talk well in front of queer people, just waiting for the desperate queer people to come to him with the mentality of trying it out.

It's easy to see through this ploy, the Quer Germans are notoriously brave and strong-believed, and the direct use of violent persecution will only make the queer people hate them even more, completely cutting off the idea of betraying them with information. That's why Shaxx stands on a seemingly impartial standpoint, leaving a last resort for queer Germans.

Shishi didn't believe in the resourceful Dr. Hazard, who couldn't see it. So why was the boss sure that Tamer, who was known for his loyalty and courage in the Middle East, would betray Dr. Eden Hazard?

She pondered for a long time, until the ISIS coalition finally met the queer forces, and the ruins of artillery rang out from the depths of the humble alleys, and smoke and fire were everywhere in the continuous gunfire. Undeterred, the heroic queer Germans relied on their familiarity with the terrain to scatter and attack the ISIS coalition forces in the buildings.

In order to break through the line and enter the temple before the ISIS coalition air power arrived, the Queer launched a fierce attack. Barely a prelude to temptation, the battle suddenly reached a climax, with shells destroying houses and tanks destroyed by anti-tank weapons and mortars.

As the queer Germans infiltrate the three alleys leading to the temple, the battle becomes a dog-tooth affair. The two gangs fought like crazy in the narrow alleyway. Bullet casings covered the crevices of the rubble in the road, disgusting graffiti of blood, brains, and flesh sprayed everywhere, and young corpses in camouflage uniforms grew into thick cannibalistic vines, baring their teeth and claws, devouring angry souls in twisted and cruel forms.

Even if he has killed people, he has seen many killings, and Xi Shi also felt extremely shocked at this time, such an efficient human flesh grinding disc, the speed of destroying human beings is too fast. Swift and tedious, the two sides are only torn back and forth between destroying each other's defenses and being destroyed.

Despite anti-tank weapons, tanks and armoured vehicles stuck between roads became an impenetrable line of defense for the queer Germans, while the city's narrow terrain and bulky main battle tanks prevented the ISIS coalition from gaining firepower superiority.

Perhaps it was the Quer Germans who were more combative, or perhaps they had a stronger will to survive, and under the continuous onslaught, the soldiers and armed vehicles towing anti-tank guns entered the bleeding front line and approached the square. Step by step, the ISIS coalition forces threw down the wreckage of tanks and armored vehicles and slowly retreated towards the square.

So the behemoths in the middle of the road stopped the queer convoy from moving forward. They had to find a way to clear the road or take a detour. This gave the ISIS coalition forces another opportunity to strike, with mortar and tank guns firing in unison in the milky morning light. The warriors skillfully scattered in search of cover and lay down, and after the rumbling sound, bricks, shrapnel, flesh and blood flew in the air, and you never knew what would fall on you, whether it was deadly gravel or nothing more than a white brain.

But this is a very ordinary scene on the battlefield, and the intersection will be delayed for a few minutes, and when the road is cleared for Pikamen to pass, everything will start repeating itself. The queer didn't stubbornly break through just a little, and they also divided a part of the personnel and tried to outflank them lightly.

In the clean movement of people, cars, and weapons, in all this movement, and in all this stopping without reaching the temple, one can feel the endurance of queer people far beyond the ordinary, and their composure is an expression of willpower.

Not to be outdone, the ISIS coalition forces did not panic or retreat even though the casualties and equipment losses were huge, and they continued to organize their defensive lines and launched bloody battles again and again with an extraordinary tenacity and queer Germans.

At dawn, the sky became less bright in the glittering firelight, and the minaret abruptly sang Sanskrit chants, interrupting the progress of the war with the melodious chanting.

In the glow of blood, the gunfire and gunfire came to an abrupt halt, and both the Quer and ISIS soldiers put down their guns and began their morning prayers.

Costa Lucas and Shisch condescended, and in the sound of the dusk drum and morning bell, they saw one warrior after another, kneeling on the ground, their hands folded on their chests, bent deeply, their heads almost touching the ground covered with blood, bullet casings, and rubble, and each one had a word on their lips.

They seemed to be possessed by some powerful will, and their mouths were full of words, a transparent tone from the bottom of their hearts, through their trachea, through the narrow slit of their throats, and under the squeezing of their palates, they were bounced out between their tongues. These subtle sounds converged into a torrent, which was even more amazing than the sound of gunfire.

At this moment, in their hearts, everything around them, blood, filth, corpses, deadly bullets, and unquenched flames do not exist, and there is only a bright and holy Creator.

They prostrated in the direction of the Holy Land, and in the morning light, the sound of prayer lurking in the air like an undercurrent, like a requiem that washes the world.

Witnessing this, Shishi fell into an inexplicable shock, such a scene is even more unbelievable than the bloody tyranny of war. The whole world fell into a daunting silence with the sound of a song-like salute.

If you had experienced all this yourself, you would never have understood the greatness and cruelty of this landscape.

After a short morning prayer, the battle began. Probably all of them were blessed by faith, and the degree of tragedy increased geometrically. Exhausted of anti-tank weapons, they even resorted to suicide attacks in order to destroy ISIS tanks and armored vehicles, a young queer soldier with a grenade strapped to his body, galloping like parkour on the rooftop, his movements were more agile than an ape, and he successfully dodged the sniper fire of the ISIS gunners, jumped into the turret of a tank.

A frantic explosion ensued, and a huge blood-red firework exploded on the steel body, flying the turret and blowing up the tracks.

No one cheered for success.

The battle is heating up.

"It's incomprehensible. Shishi whispered.

"What's so hard about that?" said Costa Lucas, smiling, changing the humble tone of his conversation with Dr. Hazard and in a tone that bordered on mockery, "humans are no different from ants, just as we don't understand what purpose ants come out of their ruined nests, some dragging small food, some dragging eggs, some dragging dead ants' carcasses, while others return to their nestsβ€”the same nest of ants, why they rush and chase each other, and kill each other." As an outsider, you can never explain why they are fighting, why they are fighting the way they are. Just like you can't understand that human bombing, suicide attacks, even if you destroy their regime, destroy their temples, destroy their lives, everything is ruined, but it will make the power of consciousness that transcends wealth and life stronger and more indestructible. β€œ

"You still don't explain why. β€œ

"My words are to teach you that you don't need to understand why. β€œ

Shishi thought for a few seconds and said, "Didn't you guide all of this to happen?"

"It's just a guide. Without my guidance, they will fight to the death. I've only slightly changed the landscape of power. β€œ

Seeing that the queer Germans hiding in the temple chose to take the initiative, under the leadership of Tamer, he planned to cooperate with the queer Germans outside the square. "I trust your judgment, but I don't think from the bottom of my heart that Tamer would betray Dr. Hazard. β€œ

"The reason why human beings cannot achieve perfection is because human beings are a collection of contradictions, they are forever wandering between reason and emotion, except for machines, no one can maintain absolute rationality, many years ago our plague doctors of the Black Death reached this consensus, in order to achieve a certain goal, to create a truly perfect human being, we have done a lot of experiments that are not allowed......."

"You mean Athena?"

Costa Lucas nodded, "Doctors believe that a true state of reason can be attained as long as all sensual pleasures are abandoned, and that 'it' becomes unquestionably perfect as long as there is enough intelligence and strength to support it." It's a pity that they don't have experimental bodies to live for a long time, and they either go crazy or commit suicide. β€œ

"Is Athena the only exception?"

"Actually, she's not an exception, because she's not a member of the test subjects. Because unlike those test subjects, who were genetically selected and raised in a petri dish, Chloe Delom, the Light of Europa, was conceived and born in October at the behest of Socrates Onassis. β€œ

Completely oblivious to the burning battle in the square, and attracted by the secrets of Costa Lucas, she asked curiously, "What is the purpose of our Black Death?" The existence of our organization is too strange and distorted, and sometimes I think we are doing something completely changing the world, and sometimes I think it is doing evil......"

Costa Lucas rarely restrained his smile, "So, it's never wealth, beauty, or .......power that can turn a firm ideal against him," he lowered, as if reciting a subtle and mysterious incantation, "but a difference in philosophy." β€œ

The first attempt to attack the defenders of the temple was driven back by the enemy's superior firepower in minutes. This forced Dr. Hazard and Senior Colonel Tamer to think of other countermeasures. At this time, there was a marked map of the town in the middle of them, and the two men hid under the window at the corner of the corridor, except for the occasional shot from the second floor, just looking at the map and thinking. In fact, there is not much point in shooting, the enemy is hiding behind tanks and armored vehicles, and the support is out, trying to meet the queer Germans who rush into the temple, it has been proven that it is almost impossible.

The number of injured people around them gradually increased, although they were all minor injuries, which would not affect their combat effectiveness too much. But there were no reinforcements in the town that had time to evacuate, and the situation was not very good without the temple as a cover. Thankfully, the town's terrain was not suitable for tanks and armoured vehicles, and the sparse number of Apache in the air and limited firepower prevented the battle from turning into massacre. But the situation is still difficult for queer Germans.

Today, ISIS tank and armoured forces have formed positions in the open area around the temple, and queer forces who want to enter the temple have concentrated their personnel in the complex near the temple to the south and east. The tank positions between the temple and the building were like steel walls, blocking their way.

Wanting to break through with the sea of people means that queer people can't afford to sacrifice.

Sweating profusely, Dr. Hazard and Tamer discussed the map for a while, but they were never able to find a suitable tactic, and the opponent's equipment advantage was too great. Seeing the Apache return to the battlefield after reloading, heavy machine guns and rocket artillery fire playfully. Colonel Tammel's eyes turned bloodshot like rabbits hiding in the grass like rabbits hiding in the grass, hunted as prey, but unable to fight back.

"Chief, this can't go on. They shouldn't have fallen here, they shouldn't have died for something inexplicable. β€œ

"So what?" asked the tired Dr. Adjara as he put down his gun and whispered, his hands shaking and his face covered in gray sweat.

"Maybe we'll try to make a deal with that devil, but Dr. Rekczka and Dr. Wendy should have run far enough anyway, and if we tell them at this time, they won't be able to catch them. β€œ

"You don't know the Chosen One, and distance is not a problem for them at all. Dr. Hazard closed his eyes and gasped, "I don't want to hear you say that again, Tammel. I told don't fall for the devil, because if you believe them, you will only be dragged to hell by them. β€œ

"But what else can we do?" Colonel Tamer stood up suddenly, exposing his body to cover where a sniper could take his name with a single shot. However, he was lucky, and despite the fierce fighting in the upper square, not a single enemy found an interlude in a window.

"Fighting, and when we bring our brothers and sisters back to the temple who couldn't escape, we can hold out for at least a few days with our geographical advantages. I've called the government and they won't miss this opportunity to wipe out all ISIS terrorists. β€œ

"Then how many people do we have to sacrifice? Even if we bring back some of the people back to the temple, will those two devils easily let us go if they don't achieve their goal?"

"Afraid of sacrifice?" Dr. Hazard said.

"I'm afraid of sacrifice? My father and brother are dead on the battlefield, and I'm afraid of sacrifice."

"I'm not saying you're afraid to sacrifice yourself. "Like you, I'd rather trade my life for the children who died under the guns of ISIS, who were so young and should have enjoyed their lives at school, in the playground, in the library, instead of fighting bloodily and dying here with no place to be buried and only hearing a few prayers." You can't get peace back by bowing your head, Tammer, believe me. β€œ

"Please let me try, even if I can delay a little. β€œ

"Tamer .......," Dr. Hazard said solemnly, opening his eyes, "if you still admit my leadership, follow my orders!"

Colonel Tamer was silent for a long time, another rocket destroyed a house near the square, the queer Germans hiding inside fled in a hurry, some retreated into the streets, some ran away from the square in a panic, the machine gunners on the helicopter seemed to tease the queer Germans who fled for their lives, the machine gun bullets fell like hail at the feet of a female soldier who fled into the square, the ISIS terrorists in the armored car let out a laugh, everyone escaped from the gun, and the bullets were shot around the young female soldier.

The flying rock fragments pounced on the frightened female soldier, and Colonel Tamer was terrified, he raised his sniper rifle and aimed at the helicopter in mid-air, and after a "bang" gunshot, the helicopter immediately pulled up and rose to a safe position.

Then the bullets poured on the poor female soldier's body, and the tearful female soldier was instantly beaten into a hornet's nest.

"A bunch of shameful brutes!" Colonel Tammel, holding the gun, crouched into the bunker under the windowsill with a hideous face, and slapped himself wildly, "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have brought those two strangers back in the first place, I shouldn't have been greedy and wanted to kidnap them for supplies!

Even though Dr. Hazard's body seemed to be convulsing slightly, he said resolutely: "Tamer, repentance at this time will not solve anything. Finding a way to bring people back to the temple is the only thing we can do. Dr. Hazard gasped for a few moments and said weakly, "Tamer, get me a few more captives, I feel like I can't hold it anymore." β€œ

Colonel Tamer lowered his gun and groped his way in Dr. Hazard's pocket, and he could tell from the tone of the immensely weak leader that he would not give in even if all the queer Germans were killed. Once in Zahara they faced almost the same desperate situation, when they had to fight to the end, but now there was a chance to make the bleeding soldiers sacrifice a little less, but Dr. Azar refused to use it. Senior Colonel Tamer never felt that such a saintly spirit had any meaning. As long as he can make his own people sacrifice a little less, he feels that any means are glorious.

Especially in such extreme situations, "Why don't you try it? Why don't you try it? It's just a betrayal of two inconsequential strangers........" He gripped the drug with "fennatalin" tightly, like a grenade that had already detonated the fuse.

"Tamer ...... Haven't you found it yet?" asked the exhausted Dr. Hazard, leaning against the wall and twitching his lips.

"Found it. Colonel Tamer took out the bottle of "Fenmetalin" and hesitated for a moment, the rapid sound of gunfire like a demon's whisper, "My instincts are not wrong. He thought, so he put the bottle of "fenalin" in his right pocket, and took out "Zorram" from his left pocket, and he brought the white pill to Dr. Hazard's mouth and said, "Chief......."

Dr. Hazard opened his chapped lips, Colonel Tamer quickly put the pill into Dr. Hazard's mouth, he handed the military kettle to Dr. Hazard, fed Dr. Hazard a sip, when he saw the other party swallowing the pill with difficulty, he quickly closed his eyes and fell asleep, he whispered: "Chief, you rest first, I will solve the mistakes I made." Whether my decision is right or wrong, it can't affect queer people, so I can apologize for my sins with death afterwards, even if it will be burned in eternal fire. β€œ

Colonel Tamer stood up, glancing out the window at the whispered muttering to himself, "For the queer Germans!"

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

When he saw Colonel Tamer standing on the edge of the square calling the name "Howard", Heath shook his head and said in disbelief, "It's really Tamer." β€œ

"It's not easy to understand people's hearts, Shisch, I have more than 100 years of experience. Costa Lucas said with a smile.

Xi Shi was unconvinced: "Maybe direct coercion by force is more time-saving and labor-saving." β€œ

"Impossible. That would only backfire, and you won't be able to tell if the other person is telling the truth or a lie, or how many details have been omitted. Now, Tamer must know everything, and we can only get as much information as possible if the other party is willing to do so. β€œ

"I hope so. Shishi said.

Costa Lucas was the first to disappear to the top of the minaret, appearing directly in front of Tamer, followed by Shisch.

"Mr. Tammer, what's the matter with you?" said Costa Lucas in a soft voice with a serious expression instead of smiling at Tamer.

"I'm going to make a deal with you. Tamer said with a cold face.

"Welcome. Costa Lucas took off his top hat and bowed slightly, giving Colonel Tamer enough respect, "In order to show my sincerity, I will first find a way to get the ISIS coalition forces to stop attacking." β€œ

Senior Colonel Tamer nodded.

Costa Lucas turned to Shisch with a wink. Knowing that, Heath took out his satellite phone and stepped aside. Moments later, the Apache hovering above flew away, and the gunfire in the square stopped.

Costa Lucas tilted his head and said, "I hope you can tell you as much detail as possible about how the two strangers came to you and how they operated on Dr. Hazard." β€œ

"It all started when I received information from Mahmood........"

After listening to Tamer's account, Costa Lucas asked a number of key questions, and Tamer answered them one by one.

"Now there's one last question. β€œ

You say. Colonel Tamer stared at the face of the man in white, but his heart was full of confusion, and he became more and more suspicious that he had fallen for the devil, as the leader said. At first, the expression and emotions of the man in white were quite normal, but when it came to the back, there were irrepressible changes on his plain face, sometimes frowning and hesitating, sometimes smiling and excited, sometimes closing his eyes and thinking deeply, and sometimes nervously interrogating.

At this point, he couldn't tell whether the man in white was too concerned about what he was saying, or whether he was a moody person himself, but he had just covered it up well when he talked to the leader just now.

In short, Colonel Tamer was full of apprehension, and although he had initially thought that it would not necessarily be successful, his expectations swelled again when the other side prevented the war from continuing.

"Are you saying that when Wendy was operating, she made Rektzka conjure a pale gold scalpel, and that scalpel can also change shape......?"

Costa Lucas's tone was more serious than ever, and he stared into Colonel Tamer's eyes, those two sharp eyes like spikes, as if they were about to pierce Colonel Tamer's heart through his pupils.

Colonel Tamer sensed a gray fear, a strange fear, not a direct threat of a cold blade near his neck, but a sticky, wet response, like a swamp slowly devouring a man.

This fear penetrated into his heart with the sharp gaze of the man in white, and he nodded subconsciously and said in a dry throat: "Yes, I can be sure, if it weren't for the too strong light of the shadowless lamp, I would even feel that the knife was transparent." β€œ

The man in white closed his eyes, he took a deep breath, and then opened his eyes and laughed loudly, as if he was about to laugh out of tears.

The great joy is overflowing, like an old tree that has sprouted new shoots, and like a ....... An accident that escaped death and regained a new life......

Colonel Tamer couldn't understand this mood better, and he suddenly felt dimly that the gray fear belonged to the man in white in front of him.

"He'll be scared too. "But why is he so happy?" thought to Colonel Tammel.

The dry laughter of the man in white made him panic and anger, so he clenched the gun in his hand and asked loudly, "What are you laughing at? Are you laughing at my stupidity?"

Costa Lucas raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes, grinned, "No, no, Senior Colonel Tamer, you have brought me great good news, how can I be treacherous. He licked his lips and patted Colonel Tamer on the shoulder, "As long as I can catch those two people, I can grant you all your wishes." β€œ

"All wishes?" Colonel Tamer was stunned for a moment, then sneered, "You think you're Aladdin's magic lamp?"

"Aladdin's magic lamp?" Costa Lucas scoffed, his hands outstretched and his head raised as if God had been crucified, "I will be greater than the Creator!"

After dealing with a few more armed pickup trucks that caught up, the convoy drove onto the road under the guidance of Cheng Mo, and although the road conditions were not very good, they were much more comfortable than driving on the Gobi.

A bright cloud erupted from the horizon, staining the brown moraine beach, and when the sun awoke, everyone relaxed slightly. The convoy picked up speed again, reaching an almost extreme 110 kilometers per hour, and raced wildly on the deserted Gobi Highway. Until noon, there was no pursuit.

The people in the car let go of their nerves and began to talk, a little worried about the queer Germans on the base's war car, but confident that the ISIS rabble would not be able to break through their queer city.

Only Cheng Mo knew that the queer Germans in the town might not end well. However, he never said a word, just focused on monitoring his surroundings through super hearing.

When the sun rose to the highest point of the day, Heller turned his head to look at Cheng Mo and asked, "Can you stop and rest now?"

"If it's just to eat, I suggest just grab a bite to eat in the car without having to stop. Cheng Mo said expressionlessly.

"Isn't it convenient to eat other than to eat?" Heller was dissatisfied, "and besides, the driver needs to change hands. β€œ

"We need to save time as much as possible, and everything that can be solved in the car is solved in the car, and if we can't solve it, we can stop and solve it quickly. Seeing that Heller opened his mouth and wanted to refute, Cheng Mo said coldly, "Don't think it's safe, even if you go to Damascus, it's not necessarily safe." β€œ

Heller really wanted to say that it was not far from Damascus, and he was about to enter the actual control area of the Zhengfu Army, so there was no need to worry too much, but he was blocked back by Cheng Mo's prophet, opened his mouth, and still said angrily: "Okay, okay, I said that I would obey your command, so I will obey your command, don't think that we queer people are untrustworthy people." β€œ

Cheng Mo nodded, "If you eat, eat now and drink less water." If you want to go to the toilet, when you get to the actual control area of the Zhengfu Army, we will stop for five minutes, and please hurry up when the time comes, I will not wait for anyone for even a minute. β€œ

Heller picked up the cloth bag with the dry food and handed it to Khalid with a grimace, muttering in Syric, "I don't know what I'm afraid of." Sure enough, Westerners are cowards. β€œ

Khalid took the cloth pocket and smiled, "I don't think, at least Mr. Rekczka and Miss Wendy are not cowards. β€œ

Heller rolled her eyes and whispered, "Syria traitor." β€œ

Khalid's face changed and he said no more.

Seeing that Khalid was handsome, his cheeks first reddened, and then his expression became blank, and Heller knew that he had said the wrong thing, but he didn't pull his face down to apologize. There was an immediate silence in the carriage, and after the rations were distributed, only the sound of chewing remained.

The food that can be carried with him is naturally not a delicacy, and there is no delicious food to prepare in this kind of food desert in Xulia, Cheng Mo could only pick a nut cake that looked like a mille-feuille cake from his pocket and handed it to Athena, and said softly: "Let's do it first." When you leave Syria, I'll get you something to eat. β€œ

Athena didn't say anything, just took the nut cake, sat in the back seat and began to eat it as if no one was around, she was far from a lady when she ate, very casual, and didn't care that the cookie crumbs stained the corners of her mouth and sprinkled all over her body.

After Athena finished eating, Cheng Mo estimated that he also entered the actual control area of the Zhengfu Army, so he asked Heller to let the convoy stop on the side of the road and rest for five minutes.

When he parked, Heller gritted his teeth and said, "Five minutes is too little." β€œ

"You want to go to a big school?" Cheng Mohu asked suspiciously.

"Even if it's not big, you'll have to find a hidden place to go to the small one! Can you let Dr. Wendy go to the toilet in full view?"

"She doesn't need to go to the toilet. Cheng Mo said lightly that the digestive system of the lizard people is much stronger than that of humans, and the digestibility is very high, just because of the relationship between the metabolism of the surname Chen and the need to excrete toxins, occasionally need to excrete urine, even if it is urine, it is as clear as pure water, and there is even a faint musk smell.

Don't ask Cheng Mo why he knows so well, he has been in the same room with Athena for so long, of course, he will study these questions inadvertently out of curiosity.

"No need to go to the bathroom......." Heller still didn't dare to say anything disrespectful to Athena, opened the car door and jumped out of the car, and ran quickly towards the bushes that were a little more dense not far away.

Cheng Mo got out of the car, walked to Athena's side, opened the door, and said lightly to Athena: "Come down." β€œ

Athena didn't ask anything, she got out of the car directly, Cheng Mo first gently wiped the corners of Athena's lips with a tissue, and then raised her hand to carefully pat off the little crumbs hanging on her clothes.

Cheng Mo tidied up the clothes for Athena, who was taller than him, "When you ate just now, did you store energy?

"417, I only store and absorb energy more efficiently when I drink Coke, in fact, eating can hardly stimulate the light snake to vibrate, only the last time the two of us ate grilled fish on the boat, I absorbed a little bit. β€œ

"I guess it could also be the role of Coke. Cheng Mo stopped, "What about the Coke I made for you?"

Athena nodded, "More obvious than regular coke." β€œ

"Maybe a cocktail with caffeine will work better, and we can try it then." β€œ

Athena shook her head, "I only like Coke." β€œ

"Then I'll try to make you more recipes for Coke. β€œ

Athena continued to shake her head, she patted the military kettle straddling her waist, and said in a flat tone, "This is good enough." β€œ

Cheng Mo smiled, wearing a human skin mask made him smile very naturally, but there was no stiffness and discomfort when he didn't wear a human skin mask. He laughed and said, "Maybe there will be better." β€œ

Athena was noncommittal, just picked up the military kettle and said, "Ice and ice." β€œ

Even though Cheng Mo's current energy consumption is almost half, and he needs to cherish every bit in this situation, he still didn't skimp, took the kettle, used his skills, and quickly gave Athena the coke cold to the point that it felt cold in his hand. He returned the kettle to Athena and watched as Athena unscrewed the cap and took a big sip.

Cheng Mo felt a little satisfied in his heart, and yesterday's unhappiness faded a lot. Suddenly, he heard a slight buzzing sound, so he raised his head and looked at the sky, the midday sun was fierce, very scorching, he built a pergola, stared carefully to the north with empty eyes, searched several times, and finally saw a white drone among the floating clouds.

The spherical eagle eye hanging from its abdomen also turned a little, aiming in his direction.

Through the hot dust and smoke, they were looking at him from afar.

(There is still a big chapter in the plot of Syria, and there are still two or three thousand words in the manuscript, but I can't find a suitable place to break it out, so I will do so much first, if I write it quickly, I can change it tomorrow, because this short content involves a lot of what I want to express, and it also involves the change of Cheng Mo's mentality, so it is written very carefully and slowly, thank you for waiting, I will do my best to write it)
