【Summer Five】Iron City Wall

The cabin was bumped, and the two rows of soldiers dangled in their seat belts, and became quiet.

"Hey, let's continue, what happened to the actress?" The young man urged the younger generation sitting across from him with an excited expression, "I heard that she has a lot of fans, and she even gathered a crowd to make trouble? Are you confused?"

The black-haired boy who was asked about it spread his hands and smiled embarrassedly: "I won't pay attention to it anymore, Lixiang is a little unhappy..."

The young man was visibly vented, and before he could speak, he was hit on the forehead by a tall blond friend next to him, "Don't say a few words, are you so advanced? Are you still taking the lead in talking here before going to the battlefield?" , pray that the parachute does not fail."

Hui Yuanqiong covered his forehead, looked around, and found that no one refuted these remarks - they were the two with the highest military ranks present, and even if they really wanted to say something, they didn't dare to speak up at this moment.

What was more heart-wrenching was seeing Yi Gu Youtai spread his hands and shrugged helplessly at him.

"Jianren!" Huiyuan yelled complainingly, "I'm just here to adjust the atmosphere. It's the first time for everyone to beat their own people, so it must be somewhat depressed..."

The sunken-eyed Danish half-blood turned his face and said word by word: "You should be glad that the major general is not with us, otherwise you two will get into trouble and the whole flight will be annoyed to death. Also, please don't call me directly during working hours." its name."

Swift-67 shuttled through the clouds, and its lead gray wings pierced the sky, leading the dozens of fighter jets that followed.

This is the largest extermination campaign carried out by the Iron City Wall regime in ten years.In addition to the regular land troops, elite soldiers equipped with driven armor were also dispatched, including the famous "demon"-Night Owl.

Ten years ago, the rebel forces rose overnight.This unseen special force quickly infiltrated the city walls and took the Fifth District as its own within three years.The leader seized the right to activate a total of eleven furnaces from the Walden Lake system, and used this to blackmail the army, and soon formed a confrontation with the government.

Different from any previous small-scale, scattered and unorganized revolutionary demonstrations, this group of people is comparable to well-trained soldiers, recruiting troops with strong cohesion and action, dealing with crises, and growing up under the watchful eyes of the regulators.

They are cautious and meticulous, and never cause any damage to residential areas; it is often the government that causes huge damage in the crackdown, which seriously endangers the trust of the surrounding people, causing people who have no position to start to waver, and gradually tend to "know the law and abide by the etiquette" of the rebels.

Under the guidance of a leader who can't see the end of the dragon, the rebel army occupies the fifth district, relies on the most extensive land of human society to absorb nutrients, and expands year by year.Even in the face of the devastated Night Owl squad, they were able to retreat unscathed, transfer the backbone with minimal losses, and continue to challenge the government.

After going on like this for ten years, half of District [-] has been reduced to a battlefield, and half of the residents have moved into the Great Cavern.Under the transformation of the rebel army, the underground world is no longer full of filth. Residents don't even need to worry about the many troubles brought about by winter. They just need to adapt and get used to it, and enjoy it more.

The army has always only fought against fantasy species, and has never thought of leading the war to the compatriots; therefore, the war situation in the past few years has been turbulent, and the government has often been at a disadvantage. Quite down and out.After going back and forth, the high-ranking people could no longer tolerate the internal consumption of resources by the rebel army, and simply passed a motion in the House of Representatives, deciding to use all their forces to completely wipe out the rebel army, so as to avoid future troubles.

In order to be on the safe side, the speaker discussed with the five generals for several months before gritting his teeth and dispatching the Iron City Wall "Patron Saint" - Night Owl-Primo/I with the blessing of the parliament's exception to extend the deadline.

This team is famous for its top individual combat, the total number of players is very small, and the requirements for joining the team are strict.Its team members can take out any one of them and put them into other troops. They can be the leader alone, and they are even more powerful in joint operations.

"The frontal battlefield is handled by the regular army. There is only one thing you have to do." Before departure, the gray-haired old general gave an order, "Kill Subaru Lawrence! As long as he is the leader of the rebel army for a day, this A protracted, time-consuming and costly battle has to continue."

The biological information of the black-haired middle-aged man was transmitted to all the soldiers of Night Owl-I. They were required to engrave this appearance into their minds and master all the details. As long as they found a suspected target, they could immediately eliminate it without asking for instructions.

"Subaru Lawrence..." In the Swift fighter plane loaded with shells, Huiyuan looked away from the terminal and looked at the increasingly clear ground through the porthole, "The brains of the rebel army, the real driving force driving this sky net What kind of person is it?"

They arrived at West Fifth District, where the fighting had begun. Gunpowder smoke shot straight into the sky, dust and thick smoke crawled on the ground, and the residential area that was almost in ruins could not be seen clearly.

The warning sound, the cabin lights turn from green to yellow, and the autopilot switches to manual operation.Jianren Qihai untied the tie, stood up, and straightened the collar with both hands.He was the most serious among them, his goggles were tightly attached to the bridge of his nose, and his eyes could not be seen clearly.

"Captain Yi Bone."

The person whose name was called immediately stood up straight and saluted, "Yes, Lieutenant Colonel, please speak."

"We are the first batch of Night Owl-I to land. We are responsible for searching and reconnaissance. The enemy is extremely resourceful, and its leader is even more unfathomable. If you accidentally encounter danger on the way, don't force it." Qi Hai said in a deep voice, index finger Hold down the griffin crest on the left chest, and apply force slowly.

Yi Guyoutai nodded solemnly, and for a moment, he smiled as if thinking of something, "The second and third batches are in the back. If there is anything, everyone will take care of each other, and we will not trouble the seniors."

Huiyuan muttered: "You are just in a hurry to see your girlfriend, you are stingy."

Then he was stepped on symbolically by Nanami.

During the countdown to the opening of the cabin door, Huiyuan patted Yi Gu on the shoulder, and said to the obviously nervous young man, "It's okay, we gangsters can't handle it, and there is a major general to help with the aftermath."

The airflow rose suddenly, Yi Gu grabbed the umbrella bag tightly, nodded with a smile.

The target locks and the hatch pops open.The sound of howling wind passed over the soles of the feet, and several black shadows jumped down from the sky.

During the sudden fall and stall, the sky was spinning, and the earth swooped in at a suffocating angle of elevation, until there was a "snap"—the parachute unfolded against the wind, like a dandelion drifting away with the wind, and slowly fell into the blood and mud. .

There was a loud sound of machine gun fire outside the wall, and countless pairs of feet stepped on the ground, splashing mud all over the threshold.

"Sir, the night owl is here." The orderly knocked on the door, put a concise document written in pen on the table, and said calmly: "I saw a Swift-67 and three Hyenas visually. Which detachment."

The person behind the desk raised his head, revealing an ordinary face.He glanced at the battle report, tapped his right hand on the signature at the end of the document, tilted his head and ordered, "Mimiko, go get the things."

The black-haired girl let go of the twins' hands, got up and said "yes", then trotted away.

The orderly was startled, "Mr. Lawrence, you want to personally... that's impossible!"

Their leader lowered his eyes and chuckled, resting his chin on his bony hand, the edges and corners were as thin as a blade of ice and snow.

"Why not?" He pushed away the chair, stood up, and neatly stacked the documents on the desktop, his voice was unhurried, "I said a long time ago that 'Suaru Lawrence' is just a symbol. It doesn’t have much gold content, anyone can do it.”

"What you need is not me, but a symbol."

Mimiko returned to the antechamber and handed Subaru a black gold brooch.He praised the girl softly, put the brooch on his left chest, and said, "You guys stay here first, and come join me when the next wave of support arrives."

The two sisters nodded, and stood at the table hand in hand, watching the black-haired man step over the threshold and sink into the yellow sand.

The messenger stayed where he was, not knowing what to do for a moment.After about half a minute, he came back to his senses, took away the signed reply, bowed to the girls, and left quietly.

Dust filled the sky, and there were hazy gunfire everywhere.This area used to be full of residential buildings, but now there are only ruined walls covered by loess, and the road surface has become potholed. Some of the deep pits after the bombing still have stagnant water, and occasionally a few corpses float in them.

Looking far and wide, I couldn't find a perfect place.

The man walked on the battlefield that he had contributed to, his steps were steady, and his expression was as usual.

"Look," he lowered his head and folded the ring finger of his left hand, as if there was a tight iron ring there, "it took me ten years to get here."

——Further, higher, and more dangerous than everyone thinks.The gate of heaven is closed to him, and hell refuses his approach, but the fire of karma is raging, they lick and entangle, and will eventually burn this body.

Gently touch the brooch, the pressure-sensitive device detects fingerprints, and the golden light spreads outward.The man thought for a while, then slowly put down his hand, the light dissipated in an instant.

He walked forward leisurely.

After knocking down a revolutionary army that rushed up, Yi Gu breathed a sigh of relief and moved his sore right wrist.

The load brought by the driven armor is much higher than that of conventional heavy armor, so Ye Xiao-I's "light armor" means extremely high requirements for physical fitness.Even if he passed all assessments with full marks, Yi Gu would still feel tired between battles.

"Die!" Just when he was distracted, the ground under his feet suddenly cracked, and he fell down with his whole body.

——It’s a trap.

It took Yi Gu half a second to judge the situation, half a second to clearly see a few enemy soldiers manipulating heavy hammers in the distance, and another second to make a body-receiving movement to prepare for the impact.At the last moment, someone grabbed the collar of the military uniform with one hand and dragged him out abruptly, and cleared out the few enemy soldiers who hadn't had time to run away like a machine gun was cutting wheat.

Keeping his feet on the ground, Yi Gu saw the person who helped him, his eyes lit up, "Lixiang, you guys caught up so quickly?"

The long-haired girl gave him a white look, changed the magazine with her right hand, and touched a walkie-talkie with her left hand and threw it to her boyfriend.Yi Gu picked it up and listened. After the sound of electric current, Zenyuan Maki called out eagerly, "Lixiang, we detected a lot of bait to the west. Wait a minute, we'll be there soon!"

"Second Lieutenant of the Chanyuan?" Yi Gu held the driving rifle flat, and the bullets rained into the bodies of the rebels rushing forward, and then were driven by the fuel to accelerate through the human body and hit the back row.Holding the walkie-talkie between his cheeks, he raised his voice and said, "Lixiang is with me, you guys spread out first!"

There was a pause at the other end, and when he heard that it was him, he immediately said, "Why are you there, kid? Where is Lieutenant Colonel Qihai?"

The side light turned red, Yi Gu ejected the magazine, and Li Xiang immediately threw him a brand new cartridge and reloaded. "It's a long story, we're fine for the time being, and we're proceeding as planned."

The signal was interrupted, and Yi Gu rolled to the right and forward on the spot, sliding into the trench formed by the low wall.Rika followed closely behind.

They looked at each other briefly, their eyebrows furrowed at the same time.

"It's heavy." Li Xiang lowered his voice, "Listen to the vibration... three, no, four."

Yi Gu said affirmatively: "He's coming this way, probably targeting Ye Xiao's landing point."

At first, the movement of the giant mechanical palm hitting the ground was very small, and only trained and experienced soldiers could distinguish it.But when they waited quietly for 5 minutes, the shock gradually became impossible to ignore.As the mecha moved forward, the whole land raised its head in response, the rock formations and the earth's crust struggled violently, and the half-collapsed houses became more and more precarious.

——I don’t know when, the military level of the rebel army began to develop rapidly, and even rivaled the regular army in some fields.

The two hid in the trenches, and the heavy armor painted in dark blue could be vaguely seen through the cracks in the bricks.These behemoths were deployed a hundred meters away, and the forts were aimed at the sky obliquely.

"They want to intercept the backup troops?" Yi Bone said, "No, this is defense—they blocked all the paths in the tactical planning!"

Sato looked at him, "You mean... Subaru Lawrence is aware of our goal and would rather use his hole cards to protect himself in the middle of the battle?"

Three electromagnetic grenades fell into his palm, and Yi Gu stared at the skyline occupied by the heavy armor, and said, "Eight or nine is not far from ten."

He wiped off the sealing membrane with his palms, pulled out the plug, and when the blue light was about to reach the critical point, he leaned back suddenly, tensing a line from his toes to shoulders and elbows, like a bowstring wide open.Li Xiang covered his ears, Yi Gu slowly adjusted his breathing, opened his eyes suddenly when Chong Jia raised his feet, and threw the electromagnetic grenade with all his strength!

"Di—" The timer resets to zero, and the blue light is interrupted.The next moment, the grenade exploded.

Shock waves swept across the battlefield, bricks, tiles, rubble and stumps collided in all directions, and dust raised several floors of wind and sand, which greatly limited the viewing distance.For a moment, the sky also became dark and gloomy.

Yi Gu jumped out of the trench with a gun, and Li Xiang watched behind him for him, and the steps of the two coincided closely.The built-in chip of the goggles guided the direction in the dusty sky. They used the wind and sand to bypass the heavy armor and trot towards the tactical point.

The invisible signal waves spread outward, seeing the target approaching, they lowered their bodies even lower.When he was about to dodge logically, Yi Gu braked suddenly, and Li Xiang bumped him on the back.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

The boy didn't reply, his hand holding the gun was tense, ready to pounce at any time.

Rika quickly understood the situation.

In the dark and dusty sky, they were unconsciously surrounded by a circle of revolutionary troops.These people are silent, all of them are fully armed, and they are absolutely unbreakable by ordinary driving weapons.

"The encirclement?" Lixiang asked quietly, "I haven't found a breakthrough yet."

"I do not have either."

The situation was at a stalemate, and just when Yi Gu was about to fight to the death to create a gap for Lixiang, the enemy army in the north direction suddenly fell.

— without warning, suddenly, like a fall.But he didn't get up again, and thick blood soon spread on the ground.That smear of blood made Yi Gu's heart tremble, and he suddenly became enlightened.

He and Lixiang looked at each other, seeing undoubted peace of mind in each other's eyes.

Just as the rebels were on guard for a sneak attack, the second and third bodies fell down.They died silently, as if someone was looking down at the chess game from a high position, holding five fingers together, and taking a life away.

"What's going on!" The enemy army looked at each other, and the encirclement suddenly became chaotic.

The opportunity was fleeting, Satoka pulled the brake pad, the machine gun fired at full force, and the bullets poured due north.Yi Gu pressed against her back, taking part of the recoil force and at the same time threw the grenade, hitting the same target.Under the suppression of firepower, the rebel army could not continue, and they forced two people to break out.

A silver-white figure faintly flitted through the dust, and Yi Gu dragged Li Xiang to stop at the tactical point, letting out a sigh of relief.

"It's done." He connected the terminal to the LAN and uploaded the information, "Sato, report."

Lixiang took the walkie-talkie, keyed in the encrypted channel, and said clearly: "Operation group N2 arrived at the target point smoothly. There were no casualties."

"Also, the major general is here, tell the others to evacuate immediately."

"He" is an ordinary revolutionary army, just like most people.

When the patrol team came to loot the village, the three-year-old daughter had a fever, and the family was so poor that there was a pile of grass roots, and half a grain of rice could not be picked out of the pot. "He" tried to beg the officers and soldiers to spare their families in a low voice, but was knocked unconscious by the other party with the butt of a gun.

The daughter was crying in his wife's arms, her little face was flushed with heat, and her breathing was scorching and she became weak.The leader also wanted to snatch the ax on the fire pit, which was the only livelihood for their family - the long handle hit the edge of the furnace with a dizzying muffled sound, "his" forehead was still dripping with blood, but his hand instinctively Reaching out, trying to grasp the last bit of dignity.

The roar was engulfed in the raging twilight, the fire was extinguished, and the stools and chairs were overturned in the dark.The iron tongs burned a scar on the back of his hand, but "he" didn't seem to notice it.The crying of the daughter beside him weakened, and seeing that there was more air out and less air in, her hands and feet stopped moving.

Under the shadow of despair and suffocation, someone stepped through the blood and gently put the ax into "his" hands.

"Aren't you reconciled?"

The man's voice was not pleasant, ordinary and featureless.But there is a spark-like warm current piercing the heart, sweeping the whole body, igniting all the blood vessels and meridians.

The handle of the ax was hot, and "he" almost wanted to let go.

The sun rises at this moment, and the light of the morning burns away the darkness.

At the door of the house lay a few corpses in disorder, with black faces and foaming at the mouth.A few young men in cloaks were cleaning up the house, restoring the mess to a barely visible state.

"Who are you?" "He" watched the accompanying doctor take his daughter from his wife's arms, his tone trembling, "Are you here to save us?"

The black-haired young man smiled leisurely, shaking like snow edges, thousands of petals falling like ashes.With his back facing the morning sun, his figure is tall and straight like a pine and bamboo, and heavier than a mountain, submerged in the dark side of the sun.

"Pleiades Lawrence."

"I'm here to invite you - would you like to join us and be part of this big family?"

Eighty percent of the revolutionary army did not fight.They only need to express an attitude of "disagreeing with the government" to get Subaru's blessing, not only to meet the supply of resources, but also to live a much more relaxed life than before.

The same is true for "he".Since the family moved into the large underground cave, her daughter has recovered from her illness.Seeing that his wife also found a job, "he" volunteered to join the army, willing to do his part for Mr. Subaru.

Most of the people here were saved by Subaru, and they both respected and feared the leader. It was rare to see that face express anything other than peace and tolerance.

And "he" followed his partner to the trench for the first time, watching Subaru sitting in the tent, passing down instructions one after another like snowflakes, piles of documents piled up, even though the front line was in full swing, he was always calm.

Those slender and good-looking hands are lightly holding a pen, and with a few words, thousands of seemingly hopeless victories have been sealed.

Only once did an army raid group sneak into the rear, trying to launch an offensive against the logistics sector. "He" and the company commander rushed back, braved the artillery fire and ran wildly in the flying sand and rocks, and led five teams to rush to help, feeling chills in his heart, and had already prepared for the worst.

Until they stopped in front of the camp, shocked beyond words by what they saw.

The dark red soil was chapped and swelled, fragments of human tissue were hanging everywhere on the corner of the wall, the bottom of the tree, the ground, and the tip of the tent, mixed with blood red and pale, and half a step forward, the toe of the shoe sank into the belly of a corpse that was still warm. It was dizzyingly sick.

And their leader stood in the sea of ​​blood and corpses, holding the long knife upside down in his left hand, and slowly wiped the blood from his eyelids with his right hand.Subaru was laughing, his shoulders and neck tensed, his back moved slightly, his deep hoarse laughter rolled to the ground, sinking into a pool of deep and shallow blood.The clothes were drenched like water, and with a light touch, his hands would be bright red, like a vicious ghost.

And "he" stood behind the company commander, his legs felt weak for a while, and he suddenly remembered what the man said when the large army was surrounded by Ye Xiao's heavy armor.

At that time, the rebel army had nowhere to go. In front of them were mountain-like cavalry, machine guns and chain swords blocked their way out, and the last destroyer gun had already burned out.Everyone had a nervous breakdown, and Subaru didn't close his eyes for three days and three nights, his cheeks were bluish-white from exhaustion, but his eyes were like blazing torches.

He was unarmed, with only a powered rifle in his hand, and his footsteps seemed to be able to break through the concrete and Wanfu Mokai city wall.

"What I want is not inheritance, never have been." Subaru's black hair was disheveled, his eyes were fierce, "Everything belonging to the revolutionary army will never be used as a wedding dress for future generations. After a hundred years, it will only be me, and it must be me. I."

The subordinates stood there dumbfounded, seeing the leader waving his saber and shouting loudly, his words slamming loudly: "Want to die? Want to live?"

They said dumbly: "...live."

"I allow it."

Subaru smashed the gun with his hand, and the iron rod was knocked out with a loud "tom".

Facing more than a thousand lives in danger, he took out the lead lead from the wreckage of the rifle, and slowly hooked his lips.

"Did you hear? I promised, and I said that if you can live, none of you will die; only trash will die here, and those with courage will be invincible and go forward."

"Now, stand up and help me fix this damned destroyer."

The ceiling lamp flickers, and the light and shadow are finely broken like red gold forging.The soldiers stared blankly at the figure, not knowing who pulled it first, and gradually got up one after another.

Subaru laughed, exactly the same as when he was killed with a knife and his hands were stained with blood, ruthless and cold as a viper.

Outside the tent, there was still thunder and heavy armor, but it couldn't dispel the evil fire from the purification world.And "he" stood in the crowd with high morale, and suddenly realized.

Crazy so far, paranoid so far, genius so far;

Subaru-san will surely die a terrible death.

In the low building covered in gunpowder smoke, Wutiao stopped.

More than a hundred meters away is the general outpost of the rebel army, and the bright lights are particularly clear in the night.The figures behind the curtains swayed, and the noisy footsteps of the queue could be heard from time to time.

He loaded the bullet into the pistol at his waist until his fingertips touched the safety, and he couldn't get any more.Each brass warhead is flowing with bright blue and pure light, and behind the astronomical figures is the core extract with extremely high concentration.

The moonlight fell lightly, slid across the side of the face, illuminating the dark blue epaulets of the military uniform.The embroidered pattern is embellished with half-wings and a star emblem, and the nano-scale light-weight drive armor covers the half of the body, shining with gold, making the eyebrows and eyes as deep as the sea.

He closed his eyes in the twilight, put away his gun, tapped his toes, and quietly disappeared into the night.

Nanako and Mimiko joined Subaru at the pass and were quickly assigned to flank support.Subaru was standing on the steps leading to the sentry post, with a pen and paper in one hand, still signing some urgent documents.

"Sir," Nanako stepped forward against the flow of people, "Is it Ye Xiao who is here? If those demons dare to trample on your hard work, we are always willing to help you hang them!"

Hearing this, her favorite husband frowned and showed an indescribable smile.

Nanako couldn't understand the meaning contained in that faint smile.She just instinctively panicked and reached out to grab Mr.'s soft sleeves.

"Yes, the night owl is here." Subaru said softly, stroking the top of the girl's head with his warm palm, "Go out and hide first, I'll have someone clean up here, so don't get your shoes dirty."

He called his confidants to come and take the twins away, and when he was done, he stood there and waved, smiling very shallowly.

The face that had been seen for ten years was still gentle, but it exuded the rotten smell of a withered ancient tree from the inside out.Mimiko held the twins' hands, feeling touched from the bottom of her heart, she actually felt that Subaru was gradually becoming a stranger.

She opened her mouth, and the words of request were about to rush out.

At that second, Nanako heard the scream of the object breaking through the air.

She looked up instinctively, and saw the stained glass made of the same material as the window spread out in the air, and the shards turned outward radially, revealing a sudden hole in the lower left corner of the glass.In that half-second that was almost eternity, the cracks spread to the surroundings, the winding lines climbed up the window lattice, and the crunching and crunching sound of the glass disintegrating was close to the ear.

Then the curtains were raised, the sound of the wind was infinitely elongated, the tone was deformed, and it floated up comically.

With a flicker of cold light, the entire window exploded into thousands of pieces!

"gentlemen--!"

Subaru's left shoulder exploded suddenly, blood spraying out.The special bullet penetrated the shoulder blade with lightning speed and nailed into the back wall, and the pool of blood bloomed like a rich red plum.

The moonlight was as cold as a sword, and a white shadow rushed into the sentry post wrapped in the night, swung into the air like a falcon, and then fell sharply at the same time as the shattered glass window—slammed heavily on Subaru, strangled him by the throat, and knocked him down on the ground. land.

Nanako threw herself forward with all her might, screaming in a different tone.She and the guards took only one step, and with the intruder at the center, a shock wave exploded, throwing everyone flying.

She fell heavily on the brick wall, her eyes turned black, and her consciousness gradually dissipated.Before she fell into a coma, the girl vaguely saw a pair of dark and cold military boots, the toes of which were lined with bright silver moonlight, outlining the straight and slender legs under the pure black trousers.

"Target confirmation."

The silver-haired major general's indifferent voice sounded.He raised his foot to step on Subaru's injured left shoulder, and crushed it lightly, forcing the man to let out a broken gasp.Ye Xiao's uniform looks like an elegant and solemn dress on Wutiao's body. The gold-plated driving armor covers half of the arms, and the other half hangs down with the hem of the clothes, trimming a bit of neat and sassy beauty.

While waiting for the communication, he drew out his gun, slowly reloaded, loaded, and released the safety. Every light sound hit the silent air, chilling to the bone.

"Don't kill him yet!" The admiral yelled anxiously through the headset, "Are you sure he has lost his mobility?"

He glanced down coolly, his eyes touched the bloody shoulder, "You don't believe me?"

"Hey, don't be angry, the speaker said 'the people need an explanation', let us try our best to detain the rebel leader and execute him in public, so as to save face for the regime."

Subaru made no sound, just looked at him deeply, his face pale from blood loss.The dust receded, and the night finally reappeared, and only a crescent moon remained in the ink-colored frame, casting a very faint and cool light.

He put away his gun and said softly, "Okay, I'll do it."

The curtains were settled, and the wind carried the gradually subsiding gunpowder smoke.

Gojo looked at Subaru quietly, something flickering in his eyes, looking closely, he found that it was just a fleeting phantom of the sky and sea.

"You're here," Subaru said, with a hoarse voice.

"I am coming."

Subaru laughed.That smile was as hot as spring on a dead tree, wrapped in the madness and determination of drinking poison to quench thirst.

Half of his face was stained red with his own blood, but he pulled out his right hand and caressed Wutiao's side neck little by little.The five fingers were cold, and the blood traced the rubbing of the fingertips and burned into the opponent's pale skin like porcelain, which was shockingly gorgeous.

"Enlightenment."

Shi Potian was startled, Gojo trembled at the call, and then roughly drew a gun to Subaru's jaw, forcing him to raise his head.

The finger on the trigger was steady, and the voice was so cold that it could condense into ice, "I will shoot directly."

Subaru was not afraid, he still lightly traced the five delicate eyebrows and eyes, half of undisguised obsession, half of unbearable pain.The messy black hair was sticky with blood, and he raised his head under the muzzle of the gun, groping for five hands that were tightly clenched, one by one intertwined.

Fingers intertwined.

"Enlightenment, enlightenment."

He just called very lightly, almost sighing, so light that it could roll off the dust.

It seems to embrace the regretful ten years in my arms again, making the birds fly high and the wind and clouds soaring.

They looked at each other, the air was silently stagnant, and the barrier that only belonged to the two slowly spread, covering the entire room.Moonlight slipped from the hem of Gojo's military uniform, was shattered by the blood, and fell into Subaru's dusty neckline petal by petal.

In the long silence, no one spoke, only the hard and cold breathing ebbed and flowed.

It's over, it's time to wake up.

——Why did you come here?

I'm here to take you away, towards the eternal death.

--it is good.

So the fog dissipated, and the bright and clear 15 years flew by, like broken jade hitting a stone, and suddenly shattered.

Under the all-out combat of the Night Owl Troop and the Heavy Armor Suppression Team, the enemy retreated steadily and was finally cornered.The situation has tilted sharply since the Ye Xiao-I team joined, until the government won a complete victory, and the ten-year crusade against the rebels finally settled.

Pleiade Lawrence was sentenced to death and will be publicly executed in the Prayer Square in the first district, and will be broadcast to the whole area of ​​the Iron Wall.The method of execution is beheading, which is the most traditional and most deterrent—the guillotine has been standing in the square for more than a hundred years, and it has never seen blood a few times, but if it is used, it must be a big event that causes a sensation inside and outside.

Against repeat offenders, Parliament has its own infallible insurance.They first injected the death row prisoner with slow-acting and highly poisonous drugs, and then dragged them to the execution ground for beheading. At that time, the drug happened to take effect, and the two-pronged approach ensured that the prisoner died safely and tragically.

In the black, white and gray sanitation hall, staff handed needles to high-ranking military officers and politicians, and they carried out the first execution.

The potion is colorless and transparent, and a drop of water rolls out from the tip of the needle, reflecting the frightened and distorted faces of the prisoners on death row.These rebels who will be sentenced to death are imprisoned by restraint belts and lined up from left to right. They will see with their own eyes how drugs enter their blood vessels and how they eat away what little life they have left.

Most of the prisoners were given sedatives, and even if they were full of despair and grief, they had nowhere to express their anger. At most, they trembled and clenched their fists, letting their faces be covered with tears.The dignitaries liked this kind of scene the most, and they patted Wutiao on the shoulder and said to him, Your Excellency, Major General, you are so lucky to be able to execute the leader of the rebel army with your own hands.

Really lucky.

Gojo silently picked up the syringe and met Subaru's eyes.

The prisoner didn't close his eyes, his eyes were dark and turbulent, as bright as the morning stars.Even though blood was still oozing from his shoulders, the ordinary face of a middle-aged man and the camouflage value of "55" were incompatible with him.Because he is too quiet, his temperament is as elegant and light as bamboo, which reminds people of the mysterious and distant Buddha.

The gods and Buddhas cannot be bound. They can break through the clear and bright, reach the avenue, and live in the other side that cannot be touched by the world.

No need for words, the tacit understanding over the years made that look obvious.

The valley wind will rest, the ink on the rice paper will gradually dry out, and the moist water will seep into the texture.The god will show the verdict, and the thunder roars, but it can't drive away a drop of clear dew on the tip of the grass.

He did evil, he did good, and after ten years, he was hated by all, feared by all, cursed by all, and cast aside by all.

My karma has been purified, and I don’t hold on to anything;

Enlightenment, enlightenment, please cross me.

Under the glove of the military uniform, the root of the ring finger was scalding unbearably hot, almost on the verge of burning.Gojo picked up the syringe, looked into those peaceful black eyes, his lower lip was almost bleeding from biting.

He slowly buried the needle into Subaru's bare forearm.

As the medicine was pushed into the body, the thick ink in the man's eyes was blown away by a gust of wind, leaving only relief.He stared at Wutiao for a long time, as if he wanted to engrave those eyes into his bones and blood, and accompany him through the long road to hell.

"The injection is complete, please leave the venue." The staff came to escort the prisoners, and kindly invited the honored guests out of the clean room.The guests walked out in groups of threes and twos, talking excitedly about the punishment of beheading.

Someone stopped Wutiao and asked, "Will the major general come to see?" He nodded, smiled and said "Of course", then walked into the crowd, and was pushed towards the Holy Prayer Square by the noisy crowd.

The central square in the first district is elegant and grand, with several rows of roses planted on both sides of the fence, the rose red against the emerald green, which is incompatible with the atmosphere of the execution.Wu Tiao walked forward unhurriedly. Occasionally someone saw his epaulets and stepped out of the way so that he could trot a few steps.But most of the spectators were too excited, and they didn't want to give the others a glance at all. They only cared about rushing to the execution ground by themselves, attracting complaints.

Seals were pulled up around the square, but fortunately Wutiao stood out from the crowd, even if they were not too close, they could still have a panoramic view of the scene.

When the prison van arrived, the executioner excitedly adjusted the guillotine, for fear that the head would be cut off in one go, which would make it less fun.Most of the people in the first district had nothing to do. Seeing that the culprit who disturbed the economic life was finally arrested, everyone was looking forward to it, and stood on tiptoe to witness the beheading process with their own eyes.

According to the seriousness of the crime, Subaru Lawrence will be the first to be executed.

Wujo watched with cold eyes, and saw the prison guards escorting the black-haired man to the execution ground, pressing his shoulders and arms to make him kneel down forcibly, bowing his head to the stone platform.

A few crows stopped on the treetops, hoarsely cooing with the crowd, as if smelling the endless breath of death.

The brightly dressed people raised their arms and shouted, their faces were wild, and a murder was celebrated with unprecedented unity.The five neat military uniforms on his body were squeezed out of folds, but he didn't complain at all, he just stared at the execution platform, his blue eyes were calm, like a huge stone that didn't move at all.

The judge read out the verdict loudly, the crowd erupted, and the cheers were higher and higher, like waves and strong winds.The scorching heat secretes golden sunshine, the breeze blows rose petals, and the exclamation mark composed of red and dark green floats in the clear sky.

It seems that the most precious, the most tormented, the most enthusiastic, the countless ten years of young people; day and night, the stars bow their heads to their lovers, the Milky Way falls into a dream, and the diamond eyes reflect the secular fireworks.

They were looking for Eden in the mortal world, their steps were chaotic, but they stumbled into the vast expanse of Anos.

Be God first, then man.

The Son of God said, I offer my hands, and I will take everything from you.

The Son of Man said yes with a smile, opened the skin with a knife, and watered the flower that was born in the sun with his blood.He said to you, all to you, and the memory passed through the cicadas and flames, and sprinkled hot and rich fire.

Then it came to an abrupt end in the same midsummer.

Wu Tiao stood still, watching the executioner pull away the sleepers, the iron chain turned, and the blade of the guillotine gleamed coldly in the sun, like a flame——

"boom!"

The guillotine fell, and the crow fluttered its wings.

After the passionate execution, Gojo returns to the mansion and meets Reina head-on.

"Master?" The maid smiled habitually, "Have you finished watching the execution?"

He nodded lazily and said, "I thought it was fun
