[Comprehensive] Light and Shadow

Walking to the depths of the forest, the special combat squad stopped and stood by. While waiting for the evacuation signal, they were also thinking about this opportunity. Obviously, the plan to go to the basement of Allen’s hometown was just a cover, but it was actually for Catch the spy in the back of the giantess' neck.

Leo, who had an unusually dark face, did not participate in the discussion, but stood quietly on the branch of the giant tree, looking in Levi's direction.

"It's a blue smoke bomb." Allen looked at the signal flare in the distance of the forest, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"It seems that it is finally over, and we are ready to retreat." Ai Ludo's eyes were also a little more relaxed.

"Then why don't we go and see what the bastard looks like inside." Oluo held the blade in both hands.

"Alan, thanks to your plan, this plan was able to succeed." Tepela looked at Alan appreciatively, with a friendly smile on his face.

"No, no, I didn't do anything." Allen was a little embarrassed and shook his head in a panic.

"But you did choose to believe us, and it is because of this that we can succeed. It is very difficult to choose the right option." Tepera praised Allen without hesitation.

"Then let's retreat." Erudo nodded slightly seeing that all the staff were ready.

"Leo, come down." Tepera looked at Leo standing on the branch and waved.

"I'm not going." Leo sat cross-legged on the tree.

"Huh?" Oluo looked at Leo strangely.

"Levi left me here, shouldn't you take me back?" Leo's words were self-willed, obviously he has been an adult for a long time, and sometimes he still looks like a child, sudden childishness The rest of the team is obviously used to it too.

"Yo? Do you think you are a baby who is short of milk? Are you waiting for Captain Levi to give you a bottle to feed you?" Oluo looked at Leo's expression, and he also wanted to make a joke, staring Looking up at Leo with raised eyebrows.

"Have Levi bottle-feed? Good idea, I'll tell the commander the exact words." Leo looked down condescendingly, with a playful look in his eyes, while Oluo froze, hey, just kidding , don't be so serious.

"Oh!"

"That's a green smoke bomb." Allen looked at the green smoke bomb in the distance.

"It must be the communication from Captain Levi, Leo, come down, we can go to meet with the captain now." Erudo looked at the green smoke bomb, and also took out the signal gun, and pointed his right hand day ready to launch.

"Wait, don't send it yet!" Leo looked at the position of the signal flare, frowned, and immediately stopped Erudo.

"Oh!"

Even after hearing Leo's voice, Erudo, who had already fired, looked at Leo strangely, "What's wrong?"

"The location, it's not right." Leo's eyes were fixed on the location where the green flare was fired just now. That location was a certain distance away from the location where the giantess left before, and it was impossible for Levi to send the flare there.

"Think about it, maybe the commander just got lost when he wanted to come to us?" Oluou didn't think so.

"Even if we follow the imprint of our horseshoe, it is impossible to run so far." The position of the signal flare is far away from our path, and the signal flare is more like deliberately determining our position.

"Leo, don't think too much, hasn't the giantess been captured alive?" Tepera also used the three-dimensional mobile device to reach the giant tree, and stretched out his hand to pull Leo off the branch. This time, Leo really thought too much Alright.

Leo had a serious look on his face, and then went straight to Alan, "Since I am following Alan, I will protect his safety. If I think there is danger there, I will never let Alan go there."

"Leo, don't be stubborn, I'm the person in charge this time." Erudo's face darkened a bit.

"So what?" Leo's face also turned cold, and his purple eyes were condensed with a cold storm.

"Leo..." Allen looked at Erudo and Leo, whose atmosphere was instantly stiff, and wanted to persuade him, but he didn't expect Leo to grab his wrist directly, and then threw himself on the horse's back. The abdomen hurt sharply from being hit by the saddle, and Allen couldn't help but grunted in pain, then glared at Leo angrily, "Leo! What are you doing!"

Leo didn't explain either. He got on the same horse as Allen. Allen hung on the saddle with his whole body bent, while Leo sat behind him. drive away.

"Leo! You're crazy! Come back!" Oluo stared at Leo angrily.

"What the hell are you doing!" Tepera looked at Leo, who was driving away with his horse, and had no choice but to chase after him with his horse.

"Erudo?" Gunda looked at Erudo with inquiring eyes.

"Follow him." Erudo frowned, finally sighed, and got on his horse to follow.

"Leo, you! You! You put me down!" Allen, who was jolting on the horse and nauseated, spoke intermittently, his abdomen hurting from the impact, and his vision was green, even though his brain was still dizzy.

"Ah, I'm sorry." Leo, who seemed to have finally reacted, held Allen by the back of the neck with one hand, and then lifted Allen from the horseback to sit with brute force, and this action made Allen feel a little more uncomfortable point.

"Why, there will be purple smoke bombs?" After a while, Tepela looked at the smoke bombs in the distance with some strangeness.

"Maybe it's an injured soldier? He fainted and found he wasn't dead, but he couldn't leave the forest?" Gunda thought of the former members of the reinforcement team. must die.

"It's calling for help! We're going to save them!" Alan's eyes widened. The scene of the reinforcements attacking from the rear and blood splattering filled his mind. He had to die once, and there could be no second time.

"Those people are dead." It was clear in Leo's mind that none of those people would survive.

"How do you know? If he is not dead, shall we throw him in the forest? And that direction is very close to the road we came from, even the enemy will not stay on that road!" Allen said to Li Annoyed by Ao's indifferent answer, before Leo could react, he used the three-dimensional mobile device to leave the horse, and then immediately went in the direction of the purple smoke bomb.

"Alan!" Watching Alan running towards the smoke bomb in the distance, Erudo and other members also followed with the three-dimensional device.

Allen's brows were tightly frowned, and the scene in his vision kept changing due to rapid jumps, but the surging anger in his chest could not be stilled, the cries of his companions beside him, the whistling of the wind, and the rapid beating of the heart Forget it all.

The screams of human beings echoed in my ears all the time. Those backup team members who wanted to complete the mission knew that they were dying but still rushed up bravely, at the cost of their lives, for the success of the final plan.

That is also life.

Living human beings, splashing blood, bones smashed into ashes, and minced meat with bloody tendons...

With just a puff like that, it was crushed on the trunk, and a terrifying scarlet flowed on the rough bark.

The purple smoke bomb is on the road leading deep into the forest, there must be someone who survived!Even with the loss of a leg and a hand, it still survived!As long as you are alive, you can be saved!

Before, he gave up once, watching those people helplessly to die, but now that the giantess has been captured alive, and the retreat flare has been released, there is no reason for him not to save people!

Leo's face appeared in front of Allen's eyes. That man always had a gentle smile and an indifferent attitude. Although he gave people an approachable attitude, the closer he got, the more terrifying he became.

Hiding under the smiling face is indifference to everything, even life seems to be easily given up.The only thing he was looking for in his field of vision was the figure of Captain Levi, except for that figure, everything seemed to be ignored, including anyone else's life.

Allen couldn't help wondering, if he was in danger, would Leo not hesitate to ignore it without the commander's order.

It's like, he can give up the lives of those backup players who are dying without changing his face, without guilt, without emotion, just blindly silent.

Allen suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. Perhaps, his status in the heart of his trusted companion was just like that belt of candy. He bought and ate at will, and felt a little bit licked when he was leisurely, but even if it was scattered on the ground, he could I don't think it's a pity.

Allen looked back hard, and saw the familiar companions around him, but there were no figures of Leo and Tepera. The dark green pupils suddenly darkened, and a huge sense of loss surged in his chest.

Is Leo angry?

Although Allen felt that he had done nothing wrong, there was still a sense of depression that could not be released at this moment.

Obviously the giantess was captured alive, obviously the signal flare to retreat was received, and obviously the captain also sent a contact signal.

That being the case, why doubt it?Why give up rescue when a distress signal is received?

"Captain?"

Alan's body shook, he looked at Gunda, and then followed the man's realization and saw that there was indeed a sensitive figure shuttled in the woods, but the hood covered his face tightly, making it impossible to recognize his identity.

"No, no! Who is it!" Gunda, who has followed Captain Levi for many years, can also recognize that it is not Levi from his figure, but if it is not Captain Levi, who else would stay in this forest inside?Are they the remaining team members, or...

The mid-air volley figure turned around, and the blade held by both hands reflected a sharp lingering light. In the blink of an eye, the dark green shadow flashed past in front of his eyes, and the three-dimensional mobile sound shook.The man quickly approached Gunda, swung his arms vigorously, and blood splashed out from the broken body immediately.

"Mr. Gunda!" Allen panicked and quickly approached Gunda, and the man had turned into a corpse, his body was still fixed by the launcher, and he was hanging upside down at this time, with a large amount of blood falling down his head , and there was an extremely deep gash in the chest, bloody and bloody, and the broken internal organs were clearly visible.

Just for a moment, the most familiar companion died.

"Alan, don't stop! Run!" Oluo immediately picked up Alan's collar from behind, then threw Alan in one direction, and then immediately followed.There must be an enemy, and the target must still be Allen.damn it!Leo was right this time!

"But, Gunda..." Alan's eyes were fixed on Gunda's body, and his eyes were blurred by a large swath of bright red.

"Damn it! What should we do now, Erudo!" Oluo looked nervously at the figure chasing after him.

"Go back to the headquarters with all your strength!" Erudo said loudly, also frowning, and glanced behind anxiously.

"Is that the body of the giantess?" Oluo looked at the person whose figure was no different from theirs. Even if he couldn't see the face, he could confirm that it was the human being who had become a giantess. Didn't he already capture it alive? !

"What?" Allen stared wide-eyed, looking at the dark green in disbelief, but only for a moment, the dark green suddenly disappeared from sight, and the three-dimensional mobile sound of the figure's movement was also silent, even more so. Great uneasiness gushed out from his chest, "Man, where is man?"

There was a piercing sound in my ears, and then there was a sudden explosion. The loud noise was accompanied by the vibration of the whole land.The eyes couldn't be opened suddenly, the orange light like the brightest lightning took away all vision at once, the wind like a storm accompanied by the heat wave made people untenable.

"Damn it! It really is her!" Erudo looked nervously and angrily at the giantess who appeared in front of him, holding the hilt of his sword tightly with both hands.After the giantess transformed, her speed had obviously doubled, and it only took a short time for her to be caught up.

"Damn it, how dare you... You must kill that guy this time, let me do it!" Allen turned around, with raging anger in his dark green pupils, his right hand was close to his mouth, as long as, as long as he bit down, he would become Once you become a giant, you can kill that giant.

"No! Alan, you go back to the headquarters! Oluo and I will kill this giant!" Ai Ludo immediately stopped Alan.

"I want to fight too!" How can I let myself go back to the headquarters, isn't it the same as before?He gave up other people's lives and died soon after, just to let himself escape, not to mention that these team members are his companions who get along with him day and night.

"Alan, this is the best strategy!" Erudo said in a tone of absolute command, with unquestionable insistence in his eyes.

"Stinky boy, do you doubt our ability?" Oluo said to Allen in his usual contemptuous tone.

"I see." Allen thought for a while, put down his right hand, and nodded seriously.

Now, maybe all he can do is trust his companions.

If, at the beginning, he trusted Leo a little more, Mr. Gunda would not... die.

Allen immediately moved forward at full speed, but his eyes remained behind.

With the tacit cooperation between Erudo and Oluo, the agile and flexible body shuttled through the trees, and shattered the eyes of the giantess with a swing at a speed that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye. After 1 minute, the vision disappeared, and the giantess covered it with both hands. The nape of the neck rests on the bark.

Taking advantage of the weakening of the giantess' attack power, Erudo and Oluo quickly grasped the double blades, turned their bodies and cut off the giantess' arms until the giant's arms could not be lifted.

Yes, my companion is so powerful.

And as long as Leo said, go forward and don't look back.

Entrust everything to the companions behind you and trust them completely.

Allen made up his mind and wanted to take one last look back as he was speeding forward, but just one look was enough to break his soul, hysterical screams stuck in his throat, and his wide eye sockets seemed to be splitting open.

——Erudo, was bitten to death by the giantess.

The blood exploded, half of the body was bitten off and fell, while the other half of the body in the giant's mouth was spit out.

"go to hell!"

Oluo fixed the launcher on the back of the giantess's neck with a grim expression, and then swung the two blades violently. Unexpectedly, at that moment, the blade was completely broken, and the giant's back neck was covered with ice crystals. The solid holds firmly.

"Oluo!" Allen roared loudly, run away!Run away!If you stay there, you will die!

Oluo panicked for a moment, and then saw a huge arm waving towards him, yes, are you going to die?The man's pupils dilated to the limit, and the moment he saw a black shadow rising into the sky, his vision froze and weathered, and everything suddenly pulled away.

"Shh!"

The expected severe pain didn't hit, but the field of vision suddenly flickered, and someone grabbed his collar and fled quickly.Oluo twisted his neck stiffly, "Li, Leo."

"Ah!" Before Oreo panicked, he heard a woman's scream. Tepela, who rushed out after Leo, wanted to deal a fatal blow from the hiding place, but he didn't expect the speed of the giantess. Quickly grabbed the steel wire of the three-dimensional device.

While being able to move flexibly in the woods, the iron wire that restrains the movement is also a fatal weakness.

"Tepera!" Oluo's eyes widened, Leo couldn't catch it at such a speed that he rushed out, clutching the blade tightly to cut off the wire.Just at that moment, the right foot of the giantess suddenly lifted up, and the huge gravity hit Oluou, and the man flew out like that, and he was loaded on the tree with force, leaving a bright red mark.

"Oluo!" Tepela yelled hoarsely, and the three-dimensional maneuver in front of him was cut off when he was in a panic. Tepela looked at the person hugging him, "Leo..."

"Put me down! Put me down quickly! Take Alan and run! If it's you, it will be fine!" Tepera yelled in despair, her three-dimensional mobile device has been completely destroyed, and it is impossible to escape no matter what up.Allen must be protected, if it is Leo, it will be fine.

Leo didn't say a word, just ran forward quickly, but his purple eyes seemed to be bleeding.

The giantess punched fiercely in mid-air. Leo hugged Tepera with one hand, leaned back, and dodged the attack. His purple pupils were fixed on the giant's face, and then he withdrew his gaze and looked towards the headquarters more quickly. rush in the direction.

Allen, who kept moving forward, kept looking back, watching Leo avoid the giant's attack every time as if predicted.

"This won't work!" Tepela felt the tightness of the man's body and the slight shortness of breath. With him, Leo couldn't spread his hands and feet at all. It was only a matter of time before he was attacked by the giantess. Moreover, the three-dimensional mobile device Gas can't carry the weight of two people to the headquarters.Tepela looked anxiously at the irritated and accelerating giantess behind her, as strong as she was at this moment, but her eyes were red, "Leo, please leave me, please!"

"Do you think I was the one who left my companions and ran away?" Leo said coldly without looking at Tepela.

"Then do you think that I will let my companions go to die for me?" Tepera couldn't help but yelled loudly, the hand holding Leo was trembling, and tears were rolling in his eyes.

Leo pursed his lips, his eyes were obscure, but his hand holding Tepela tightened again.

The giantess didn't seem to know what the limit was, and even at a frightening speed, she could continue to speed up under the influence of time. The giantess kept a close eye on Leo's whereabouts, and after accelerating again, she finally reached out and grabbed Leo's three-dimensional body. Steel wire for motorized devices.

Leo quickly retracted the launcher, his body spun rapidly, and then chopped off the nerves in the giantess' wrists with a wave of his arms, then immediately continued to run along the giant's arms, using his toes to step on the shoulders of its body, and jumped up again. It was a wave of an arm, and the giantess' eyes immediately spattered with blood.

"Only one eye was cut!" Tepela screamed with her eyes wide open. She clearly saw the moment when the giantess turned her head, and only her right eye was damaged.Leo obviously also realized this. When he saw the left fist of the giantess swinging at him, he immediately swung the blade forward. Although he resisted a bit, Leo was knocked away by the huge momentum. With his back against the tree trunk, the severe pain made his whole body tremble, and the man's hands were so shaken that he almost let go of the blade.

"Leo!!!" Allen screamed hoarsely in his ears, and what Leo saw after his vision was blurred was a giant foot that was pressed down. Plasma of flesh and blood cannot be distinguished.

Leo pressed the handle of the attached sword, trying to launch the launcher of the three-dimensional mobile device to the tree trunk next to him, but when he wanted to hug Tepera, the woman stretched out her hand and got rid of Leo's hand , and then pushed Leo aside forcefully.

The moment Tepera pushed Leo away, he suddenly saw the panic flashing in Leo's purple pupils.

The corner of the woman's mouth slowly raised an arc.

She seemed to suddenly understand what Leo said on stage during the mobilization yesterday.

No matter how much you want to live, everyone still has a reason to die.

Then, my mind was full of smoke and heat, as if I saw the night before the trip, Levi Ban sat together and ate a sumptuous dinner.

Hanji was happily telling stories to Allen, Oluo was chattering and spouting rice, Gunda and Erudo were clinking glasses with tea instead of wine, Leo was watching Levi who was eating with a smile on his face, and Own……

Just looking at it like that makes me feel very satisfied.
