Streamer law

Just when everyone was about to fall asleep, suddenly a shrill scream sounded unsuspectingly at the entrance of the cave. The sharp and piercing sound was amplified countless times through the winding and empty cave, and the explosion made the scalp numb, and everyone woke up , Many people endured heart palpitations and a buzzing pain in their heads.

The people who were near the entrance of the cave rushed out first, and Luo Ting didn't dare to hesitate, and followed immediately. He saw that the people who went out first were all standing still, and only the person who screamed at the beginning fell to the ground and shivered. Not even a single person to help him.

In front of him lay a dead man who looked like a mummy, his face was mottled like dead wood, and he could only deduce from his clothes that he was the student who went out to find Vero.Luo Ting passed through the crowd silently, and briefly checked the corpse. The bodily fluids in the body of the deceased were basically evacuated, and there was even a thin layer of corpse wax floating on the body. If it wasn't for this layer of corpse wax, Luo Ting would have suspected The corpses would be blown away by the dry, hard wind from Solomon's Tower.

However, this layer of corpse wax is inexplicable. Corpse wax is usually produced in a humid and airtight environment for a long time, and this corpse, regardless of the environment or the time of death, is not enough to produce corpse wax. Is this corpse another owner? Is there someone else, or is there some other special reason?

For a moment, Luo Ting thought of many possibilities, but the first thing to be solved right now is probably not this problem.

The students in the cave had all rushed out, and after seeing the miserable corpse, they froze in place again, at a loss as to what to do, allowing the panic to gradually spread.Most of them are students who are still in school or have just graduated. Although they have practiced a lot on weekdays, they have gradually improved in Solomon Tower during this time, but no matter whether it is fighting or fighting, there is always a thick layer of barriers between them. It is indeed the first time for many people to face the horrific corpse of a companion so directly.

Luo Ting reached out to pick up the corpse, and the crowd dispersed automatically with a clatter, making way for him a wide path.

"Come first."

Although the inside of the cave is leaking everywhere, it is still much warmer than the outside with the firelight.Luo Ting placed the corpse in the corner behind the corner and temporarily covered it with simple clothes. The rest of the people followed in one file and sat obediently around the campfire.

The warm atmosphere brought them back to their senses gradually, and the suffocating silence made everyone anxious, and soon some people couldn't sit still.

"Where's Vero... where's he! How can we get out without him!"

"Now the person has not been found, but one died. What should we do next? Should we continue to walk in?"

Luo Ting sat down and listened to their conversation and whispering, until someone confirmed that the deceased was indeed their companion, he cut off the conversation: "This thing happened very strangely, now we have only two choices, continue Go back to finish our mission, or go back to the camp and wait for Professor Faber immediately. I can tell the route, and if you decide to go back, I will take you back."

As soon as he said this, there was no one to say anything, as if no one wanted to be the first to declare that he was a deserter.

Luo Ting looked around and could only say: "Today is too late, think again, we will make a decision tomorrow morning, let's rest first."

After he finished speaking, he turned over and lay down, ignoring the group of people, Fei Ning also lay down next to him, and sighed softly.The rustling of clothes came from behind them one after another, and most people lay down. Although it was destined to be a sleepless night, it was still quiet under the disguise of a whitewashed peace.

Just when Luo Ding was about to fall asleep again, there was a sound of light footsteps. He raised his head vigilantly, and found that a thin and small man was walking towards the corner where the corpse was placed. Obviously, he also noticed Luo Ding. looking at him.

The little man's eyes were a little red, and he said softly: "I just want to visit him and talk to him. We used to be roommates. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and we haven't talked in detail. I didn't expect this to be the last time we met. .”

Luo Ting nodded and acquiesced.

The second half of the night seemed to have passed so uneventfully. The bright morning light woke everyone up one after another, and someone counted the number of people in the silence.

"There are two more people missing."

Luo Ding swept through the panicked crowd one by one. It was obvious that he was the first to notice that Vitans was missing, and there was another missing person... He suddenly frowned, and walked towards the corner where the corpses were stored with an ominous premonition. go.

Fei Ning followed without saying a word. Over Rodin's stiff shoulders, he saw another shriveled corpse maintaining a half-kneeling posture. The two corpses were put together as if they were communicating silently, making it even more strange and terrifying. .

Fei Ning stammered a bit: "He... When did he come in?"

"In the middle of the night last night, he said he wanted to spend the last time with his roommate."

They searched around, but Witans was indeed missing. The two died strangely overnight, and the two disappeared. With the heavy burden of tasks, no one could relax.

Just as Luo Ting was thinking about how to continue, Vitans unexpectedly walked in from the outside.

"Where have you been? Did you kill the man?"

Witans put his hands in his trouser pockets, with a puzzled expression on his face: "Who died again? What does it matter to me? I went to find a water source. This place is filthy dirty. It's really not for people."

He looked at the position of the crowd, glanced at the corner, and quickly looked back as if he saw something dirty.

"It seems that Vero has run away, what shall we do next, President?"

"Last night I said, evacuate, or move on, you can vote, I will listen to your opinions first."

As soon as Luo Ting finished speaking, someone immediately expressed his opinion: "I want to go back!"

"Do you still remember what the mission is this time? The oath before departure was just talk? Why did you come to participate if you were afraid of death? Do you think war is a fun thing?"

Facing his companion's questioning, the retreating man was a little timid, but soon he raised his voice, "I'm not afraid of death! But I don't want to die inexplicably like this. How did those two people die last night? You also want to be like them ?"

"Do you think you won't die when you go back now? Since you have stepped into the battlefield and face death every second, aren't the soldiers fighting on the front line in danger? If they are afraid in their hearts, can they just run away?"

Among this group of young people, it is true that some of them have not yet prepared enough for the cruelty of war and showed deep timidity in the face of sudden death. around.

The lineup on the field is clear at a glance, and the majority are those who support the continuation.

"I can't tell you the truth, but knowing that I'm going to die, I won't die in vain. I can do more things and kill more enemies while I'm alive. Why should I make unnecessary sacrifices for nothing? My name is Delia. There are tens of thousands of delias in this world, but there is only one me, if I don’t cherish this life myself, wouldn’t it be a waste of time to come to this world?”

"My name is Eisen, and I'm just one of the most ordinary people who have devoted themselves to this war. I'm not afraid to die in vain. It's for our cause. I think all attempts to end this war are worthwhile." It’s worth it, and I’m willing to walk a path that others haven’t taken.”

"I can't convince you, and you can't convince me either. I just hope you can walk to the alliance's base alive."

"If I die on the road, I only hope that someone can bring my body back to Imperial Capital."

Delia and Eisen stood facing each other, with Luo Ting in the middle. Even if they disagreed, they couldn't simply say which was right and which was wrong.

Vitans laughed suddenly, and he threw a gadget casually, and a small ring fell to the ground with a "ding".

"This storage ring is more than enough to accommodate us all."
