Strike!cowardly [interstellar]

"What's the sound?" Zoro, who was camping and resting on the plain on the other side, stood up and looked at the mountaintop where the smoke exploded in the distance. He raised his eyebrows, "The actual battle is too lonely, and the free fireworks show?"

"Boss, according to reports from his subordinates, Marshal Lance and the others should have gone up the mountain." The adjutant behind him frowned.

Sauron didn't answer, he lowered his head in deep thought, the adjutant had been staring at him, and suddenly saw him beckoning to him, and moved closer.

"Hiss—do you still remember the footprints you found yesterday?" Sauron tapped his fingers on his knee.

The adjutant nodded, "I remember. But maybe Marshal Lance and the others passed by."

"It doesn't look like it." Zoro stopped his fingers and tilted his head slightly, "You lift your feet yourself and look at the soles of your shoes."

The adjutant didn't know why, so Sauron gave him a disgusted look, "Military shoe prints are all ribbed, and the one on Lance's is from the same manufacturer as you! But the one I saw yesterday has horizontal stripes. "

"That's... the native race of this planet?!" The adjutant gasped.

Sauron also took a breath of cold air.

"Oh my god, what should we do now? Do we want to report back to the empire to His Majesty!"

"Oh my God! How could I have such a stupid lieutenant like you!" Sauron kicked him on the ass, stood up coldly, with a hint of solemnity on his bewildered face, "Order troops, bring all the guys, let's go first See if you can get Lance out of the 'native' mouth."

Yao Zai'er looked at the hard boulder and stretched out his hand to move it. Soon his white and tender fingers were scratched. He was not very proficient in using the human body. He stumbled and stumbled, but he was not as fast as other soul dogs.

He simply changed back to his cub form again, and this time he quickly pawed up with his paws, not caring about the blood foam, he just wanted to hurry up and remove these obstacles that prevented him from meeting Lance.

Under its leadership, the uninjured soul dogs worked together and quickly dug a deep hole.

On the other side, Lance's movements quickened. He has persisted for a long time in the state of extreme hypoxia and without a hood. Even with SSS-level physical fitness, he gradually lost sight of the broken hole. The hand holding the gun Trembling slightly, he lifted it up and put it down helplessly.

Just when he was at his wit's end and was about to give Molly his final adventure order, suddenly a ray of light came in, flashing everyone's eyes for an instant.Everyone closed their eyes tightly, and after a short period of adaptation, they stood up from the ground as if they saw hope.

Lance stood on top of the ruins, his deep pupils narrowed slightly, and under the backlight, a snow-white figure covered with golden light entered his line of sight, like an angel recorded in the "Holy Code", making him in a trance for a moment .

"Wow!" Yao Zai'er screamed excitedly when he saw Lance, and plunged in through the dug hole.

"Apollo!" Lance stepped forward, with a look of joy on his always serious face, and opened his arms towards it.

The soldiers behind couldn't believe their eyes either. They were already waiting in despair, but they didn't expect that the one who came to rescue them first was the delicate and unintimidating "pet dog" next to the marshal.

"Come on." Lance resisted the growing discomfort in his chest, making sure to catch his little guy in the best condition.But found that the snow-white round head was still sticking out its tongue excitedly at him "hahaha", and did not take a step forward.

"?" There was a doubt on his face.

On the side of the cave that he couldn't see, Yao Zai'er was struggling to twist his fleshy buttocks, kicking his short legs, trying to get into the hole.

The hole was a little small and it got stuck.

A dog behind him rushed up and hit it hard with its head. After being kicked several times, it made two groaning sounds of grievance, and other dogs rushed up.

Just like that, after kicking all the dogs, Yao Zai'er finally moved in little by little, and jumped into Lance's arms!

Lance swayed, but still hugged it firmly.

Seeing it pass by, the other dogs also rushed up, trying to get in through the hole to find their master.The soldiers were also very happy to see their soul contract dogs, and their emotions immediately rose.

After understanding the terrain outside, they opened the hole much more smoothly, and soon all the people inside successfully came out.

Lance walked at the end, one by one, recited the dead comrades.

Surviving a desperate situation, everyone looked at their comrades who had fought with them last night, and now they were sleeping peacefully on the ground, silent.

"Wow!——" Heizi under the tree had regained some strength, and when he saw Lance, he dragged his broken leg vigorously and crawled towards him.

Yao Zai'er ran over and licked its wound with his tongue.

Lance walked over quickly, picked up Heizi, connected to the communication device, and quickly searched for the location guided by it.

Gbadden has been unable to contact him, and he doesn't know what went wrong.

The closer he got, the more restless Heizi became, and finally he even broke free from Lance's arms, dragging his broken leg and crawling towards the edge of the woods.

The edge of the woods was in a mess, with broken thick trunks and incomplete and uneven ground, which showed the tragic explosions that had been experienced.

When Lance saw it, his brows and eyes sank, "It's a bomb."

During the actual combat, neither side is allowed to use monitoring equipment, let alone use any aircraft.

Facing the sudden bomb dropped above his head, it was normal for Gerbatton to have no time to summon him.

Gbarton...

Just as Lance turned around, he stopped abruptly, his azure eyes widened, and a broken light inside moved, and then froze for a moment——

Heizi let out mournful wailing, and crawled on a person's body.The man was still wearing a dark military uniform, with a strong figure, lying on the ground motionless.In his hand, he was still holding the gun, and the blood had dried up, his wrists, the bottom of his body, the bottom of his head... were connected in one piece, staining the grass, and how much was absorbed by the soil.

Lance felt that his steps were a little stiff, so he walked up to him step by step, squatted down, and called softly, "Hey, I'm up."

The blood-stained man was still silent, unlike when he jumped up from the bed when he was in school, and shouted loudly: "What's wrong, what's wrong! We're going to be late!"

Lance closed his eyes tightly, and knelt down on one knee, his generous back trembling slightly.The faint panting sound carried an unsteady breath, a man would not shed tears lightly, let alone a marshal of an army...

but……

Yao Zai'er gently squeezed his head into Lance's hand, and said softly "Aww" - don't be sad, come and touch me...

Lance gradually grasped his hand tightly, inserting his fingers into the fluffy and soft white fur, as if drawing strength from it.

"Boss, boss? What's the situation with you now? A living body is approaching you!" Molly's voice came from the headset.

Lance's mind was in a mess for a while, and he couldn't hear what she was saying. He only knew that he gave the order, "Molly, get the cab ready, and the starship lands."

"Yes!!" Molly waited for this moment for too long!But in the next second, she heard, "Military doctors and veterinarians are ready, and all active wounded are ready for battle."

Molly was taken aback, "Boss? Are there... are there any casualties?"

drop.

The person on the other side seemed to hang up, and there was no response.

It's rare for Lance to even want to escape for a moment.

But at the next moment, like a conditioned reflex, his mental strength suddenly exploded to the limit, and he rushed forward, pressing Baituanzi, Heizi and Gbadton all under his body...

"Bang!" It was the sound of bombs ringing around again, this time it was not a bomb, but it seemed to be dropped accurately from the mountain behind.

——And the target is them.

He looked back coldly, except for this wave of bombs, there were no new ones coming down.Instead, there was a sudden "chug chug" of sharp gunshots.

The gunshots were chaotic and irregular, like a lunatic commando, and the shock made people's ears hurt.

More and more silver-white figures appeared in the mountains, and the wine-red hair was particularly eye-catching.

Sauron hooked the attacker's throat with one hand, and asked darkly, "Brother, which side is right? Roberta? Or Volo?"

The visitor looked at him a little strangely, but also a little excitedly.He seemed to want to say something, but he hesitated to speak. Just when he was struggling and finally about to speak, there was a "click", his neck and shoulders formed a strange arc, and he fell to the ground.

"Forget it, I don't want to hear it anymore." Sauron sneered and swept his hands dullly.

The people on the ground still kept their eyes open, facing the direction of Sauron, dying with regret.

When Sauron turned to leave, he took another look at him, and suddenly stopped, turned around and pinched the man's chin on the ground, rubbed it carefully, his eyes narrowed slightly, and pulled open his neckline, where there was a hideous scars—

"..."

"Boss! Marshal Lance's starship has landed! Where's ours? And... who are these people?!" The adjutant leaned over.

With his fingertips, Sauron dug deeply into the scar on the man's chest. Seemingly filled with resentment and embarrassment, he tore off the scar along with the flesh, and said calmly, "Communication starship, land immediately!" .Also—tell Lance, I will help him clear these 'natives', and let him not be too grateful." As he spoke, he threw away the corpse in his hand, ignoring the blood between his fingers, and a half-smile appeared on the corner of his mouth The curved arc, stepped on the head of the corpse, and trampled it hard.

Lance's starship has landed, and the military doctors and veterinarians who have been waiting have started to work one after another. The wounded are carried up one by one, and the treatment is busy but orderly.When the stretcher carrying Gerbatton was put into the "non-treatment area", Molly was stunned, her legs and feet were weak, and she looked at Lance with help-like eyes.

"...Boss?"

"Boss, I beg you, speak up..."

Lance silently looked away and lowered his head.
