Byron's Blade

On September 149, 9 in the new calendar, Mu Li felt that he would never forget this day in his life.

Since Samuel searched the hospital on the night of the 24th, there were two more heavily armed female soldiers by her side, who followed her all the time, even when she went to the toilet.In addition, there are many soldiers patrolling back and forth outside her ward.Samuel has his eyes on her, and in order to prevent her from making trouble, he sent heavy soldiers to put Mu Li under house arrest in the hospital.

And what happened outside, Mu Li didn't need to think about it, a large number of traitors fell into Samuel's hands, and the end would be extremely tragic.Despite an all-night negotiation between Lanny, Kriell and Samuel, they failed to bring back the defectors, as expected.

They originally thought they had escaped, but the next moment they were relieved, they saw the arrival of the god of death.After giving them hope, what they faced in the end was still despair. There is nothing more cruel than this.Mu Li has been living in extreme pain for the past two days. If she hadn't been too careless, if she had realized that this was a trap earlier, if she hadn't said the phrase "You guys go first", would everything have been different?

She personally treated those people one by one, bandaged them, applied medicine to them, watched them bow down to her gratefully, and called her "benefactor" over and over again, thank you very much.However, she saved them, but killed them, how cruel did she do?

The only ones who gave Mu Li comfort were Mary and Dora, mother and daughter who had escaped the claws of death.Perhaps the mother and daughter really deserved their lives. The floor under the cabinet in the radiation room where they were hiding could be opened. There was a mezzanine for laying cables and light. The mother and daughter hid in the mezzanine. He really avoided the search and saved his life.

Mu Li left the intercom device to them at that time, just in case they would be discovered, just in case.The intercom device also came in handy. After the mother and daughter escaped safely, they immediately contacted Mu Li. Mu Li specifically asked Lan Ni to arrange for someone to hide the mother and daughter so that they would not be discovered again.Now, they are temporarily safe.

On the morning of September 9, Mu Li received an order from her superiors to leave the hospital with injuries and return to the No. 27 Squadron, waiting for further instructions.

When Mu Li walked out of the hospital gate under the "escort" of four armed soldiers, he felt like a prisoner who had been released on parole.The one who came to pick her up was an open-top jeep. She was pinched tightly by two tall and strong soldiers from the 180th Division on the left and right sides, and there were two armed soldiers standing on the pedals at the rear of the car, staring at her with their guns raised. looking at her.In this situation, she was almost handcuffed on her hands.

Mu Li didn't intend to resist, she knew she was resisting now, and it was useless to beat up a few soldiers.But the anger and incomprehension in her heart were about to overwhelm her.She didn't understand, why do human beings kill each other like this?Humiliated by foreign races, human beings have confined themselves within the city walls, not knowing how to regain their former homeland, but only knowing to fight with each other.

The bug swarm could have been prevented, but Ares was still destroyed by the worm swarm, and tens of thousands of people died; the third squadron made great contributions, and there was no reward, but was intercepted and killed by a conspiracy on the return journey; Support, but was led out of the city and fell into a fatal trap.All of this is just because of some people's dirty, ulterior conspiracy.

There are also these traitors, who are so abused just because there are parts of their thoughts that are not conducive to the ruler's rule.They can't even be called human beings. How is it different from domestic animals that come and go when they are called, and are killed when they are useless if they have mercy?Even for people like Samuel, killing these people is a gift to them, because their deaths have contributed to this society, so they are allowed to die. Thinking about it this way, it is actually worse than domestic animals.

No one will save them, and saving them is considered a treasonous act, and it cannot even be mentioned on the stage in a blatant manner.Even if Lannie and Creel were negotiating with Samuel, they would never expressly say "we want to save the traitors".

And what makes Mu Li feel the most chilling is that she may be the only person in this world who sincerely wants to save them.Whether it was Lanny or Creel, saving these traitors was only for some of their own private purposes.For example, Creel, he did it for his position and face, and his sympathy for these traitors was not enough to make him resist his father even a little; For the morality of the former enlightenment teacher.

If none of these purposes exist, they may not act at all.

So that's it, so when the plan fails and all the traitors are caught, they won't break the boat and confront Samuel.

Just like losing a game, a chess player will not commit suicide because of it.

For the first time in his life, Mu Li had such a profound understanding of the cruel nature of human nature.

The convertible jeep was not going fast because the road was thick with unwashed blood and the tires were slipping.These bloods are human, Zerg and predator.Mu Li didn't even dare to look up, because she knew that there were many rebels on the side of the road, who were struggling to haul the corpses.They didn't have any protective measures on their bodies. Insect blood, human blood and minced meat and internal organs were stained all over their bodies, making them extremely filthy.Their skin may have begun to redden and fester, the ruptured wound may have been inflamed and infected, or the insect poison may have penetrated into their skin.

Mu Li didn't dare to look, she was afraid of the stares of these traitors, as if they were blaming her, as if condemning her, why didn't you save us?Why give up halfway?Why kill us?

"Master officer, please let my old mother take a break. She is in her 80s and can't do it anymore!" A middle-aged man in his 50s knelt on the ground and gave a hand to the overseer officer in protective clothing. Discount.

"Get up!" What was waiting for him was a whip raised high.

Mu Li lowered his head, closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and clenched his fists.She could feel that her abnormal reaction made all the soldiers escorting her nervous.If she moves slightly, the battle will break out immediately.

These traitors were more or less wounded, but they even whipped them with leather whips. How to avoid infection?This is clearly to put them to death.And it was done in an extremely cruel way.

However, after a twenty-minute drive, Mu Li felt an unprecedented torment.The car drove all the way to the city wall, and finally arrived at the temporary camp of the third squadron at the foot of the city wall.

To her surprise, Lieutenant Chris, Lieutenant Jill, Lieutenant Lu Diyun, Second Lieutenant Rui Qiao and other lieutenants made a special trip to wait at the gate of the camp.When Mu Li saw them, he felt as if he had passed away.Their concerned eyes made Mu Li want to cry.

"Ali, welcome back!" Chris stepped forward and hugged her vigorously.

Mu Li lowered his head, the corners of his mouth trembled, and hugged Chris back.

"It's good to come back, we're still worried that you'll lose your hair." Lu Diyun said, and patted Mu Li on the shoulder.

"Hero, you are back. How are you? Are you okay?" Jill laughed.

"Ali... woo...I'm so worried about you, did those bastards do anything to you? I can't even get in touch with you." Rui Qiao actually cried, and hugged Mu Li tightly when she came up .Second Lieutenant Lilian also came to join in the fun, and hugged Mu Li and cried together with Rui Qiao, but Mu Li was a little dumbfounded by them.

Although the taciturn black second lieutenant Leon didn't say anything, there was concern in his eyes.

"Okay, stop making trouble, Ali is still injured, let her rest." Captain Chris said, "Ali, later, our third squadron and 180th division, as well as the city defense army have a third army Joint mission. When you need to go out of the city, you should recharge your batteries first."

Mu Li nodded.

At 14 o'clock, all the soldiers in the Ares region received a uniform delivery message on their bracelet IDs: the blockade of the Ares region was lifted!The gates to the city of Athena will open at 6:[-] am tomorrow morning.

A quarter of an hour later, the latest task was assigned to every soldier's ID: All soldiers stationed in Ares are required to complete the incineration of all the corpses piled up inside and outside the city before 6 o'clock tomorrow morning.

Another 15 minutes later, all the soldiers, including Mu Li, were driving mechs or sitting in vehicles, all gathered at the gate of Ares, waiting for the gate to open.There were ten other gigantic trucks, their beds full of Zerg and Predator corpses, parked not far away.These are the Zerg corpses scattered in the city collected by all the traitors and soldiers in the past few days.

Sitting in his mecha, Mu Li looked at the towering and majestic city gate in front of him, and remained silent.Five days ago, she was blocked by this city gate and almost died; five days later, she was behind this city gate, holding a spray gun, waiting to go out of the city to burn her body.She suddenly felt that all of this was so ironic, it made people feel cold inside.

The city gate slowly rose, making a loud bang, and the scene outside the city gate was revealed little by little. When the whole picture appeared, it made people gasp.The corpses of the Zerg had piled up to the height of submerging the city gate, and the blood of the Zerg even flowed into the city along the cracks in the city gate, forming a riverbank-like patch of soy sauce.

These Zergs and predators were all trampled to death by their own kind, and became the stepping stones of these Zergs entering the city.It piled up ferociously outside the city wall into a mountain of meat, like the paw prints left by a demon, which makes people shudder.

The suspension bridge has been blown up, the moat has been filled, and a Gaussian rail gun has been set up at the entrance of the city gate. Amidst the bang, a large number of Zerg corpses were melted in the high temperature, and the city gate was cleared out of the road. The soldiers finally started to fight. Out of town.Mu Li drove the mecha, followed the large army, stepping on the road paved by the corpses of the Zerg to the outside of the city bit by bit.

Ten trucks loaded with Zerg corpses also rolled over the mountain of corpses and drove out, joining the corpses in the trucks with their kind.

Dozens of helicopters began to pour flammable materials and burning oil from the air into the sea of ​​corpses.

With an order, all the mechas started to ignite the guns, spewing flames towards the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​corpses.

The flames spread rapidly, and the mountain of corpses turned into a mountain of flames. The billowing smoke rose into the sky, and the extremely pungent smell could be smelled even through the oxygen supply ventilator.

Soldiers with fire extinguishers on the edge stood ready to prevent the flames from spreading, and white condensate would be spewed out from time to time.

Mu Li couldn't forget this scene, the mountain of burning corpses, like a giant flame claw, was clawing at the edge of the Ares city wall.The flames that spread hundreds of meters high burned for six to seven hours without extinguishing.The sky at night was reflected as if it were daytime. The loud crackling sound and the screams of Zerg that had not yet completely died from the fire scene showed the painful memory left by this disaster.

In the early morning of the 28th, the flames finally gradually weakened, and the mountain of corpses gradually collapsed and turned into black ashes.However, a more cruel scene began to be staged in front of Mu Li. On the top of the wall, rows of figures suddenly appeared. They were bound and standing on the edge of the city wall. The executioner with the gun.With the sound of gunshots, these people fell from the high wall and fell into the sea of ​​​​flames below.One batch after another, they fell from a high altitude, drawing an extremely cruel parabola.

Mu Li watched all this with trembling lips, his cheeks were pale and bloodless.Blood splattered on the screen of her mecha, a scarlet line split the screen.

Since then, this picture has become her eternal demon and nightmare.
