Nemesis is Coming - C128
I didn’t explain anything to him, but took out the God’s Punishment Fragment. Flar’s face changed, and immediately shouted to his subordinates: Everyone retreat! Retreat 500 meters!
I hadn’t expected him to get so nervous all of a sudden, but it also proved that the bead must be very powerful.
He would look back at me and say, Human, what do you want?
I was surprised to hear him talk to me about it.
I said, You let the prisoners go.
Flar sighed and said: Alright, if you had used this thing without saying a word earlier, then I estimate that half of the troops that I brought out today would have been lost. For this reason I grant your request.
He said to his soldiers, Release the prisoners and prepare to return to camp.
Then he left a pile of prisoners behind and withdrew with his men. I wanted to ask him: Do you want the beads?
However, he quickly shut his mouth.
After Flar led his troops and left, I ran over to look at the White Shadow’s corpse. Ye Zichen sighed in his heart, but he still felt sad.
There was danger everywhere, and I didn’t dare to delay any longer. I led the group into the forest by the main road.
There were old and young, men and women. I don’t know what to do with them.
If they were left here to fend for themselves, it would be difficult for them to survive. If they were brought along, the target would become larger and they would be vulnerable to attacks.
I hesitated, but I could only bring them along. As long as I didn’t take the main road, it should be safer.
Watching the sky darken, I took them all deep into the woods. He found a relatively spacious place. He began to count the people and prepare to camp.
I counted 122 people here. Twenty-two of them were elderly. The remaining 100 were young, but 40 were young women.
I had to make the best use of it, and put together sixty strong young men into a battle-ready squad.
I gathered them together and told them what I thought. Everyone nodded in agreement.
I decided to rest in the forest for the night. On the second day, I went all the way to Luo City on the small path.
Most people agreed, but some old people said they couldn’t go that far.
But I said, If you can’t leave, you have to go. Staying here was a dead end.
The elders had no choice but to agree.
When I finished, I told the girls to go around and pick up some firewood, and I took twenty or so guys to find some wild vegetables and catch fish.
The remaining people stayed where they were.
Only after getting familiar with these people did they realize that it was actually this place. A hundred or so young people, a college student, and the twenty-two old people from the nursing home.
Because Fighting Flames had reached their city, they were assigned to these two large buses to escape the war on Luo City. Unfortunately, they met with enemies, and were all captured.
Which city? I asked.
They told me it’s Shanqi City north of Iron Sand River. Now the city was surrounded by enemies, surrounded on all sides.
After the Tiesha River Battlefront crumbled, the enemy’s front also continuously expanded.
It was said that after the enemy crossed over the Tiesha River, the army split into three groups, and headed towards the east, west, and north respectively.
When we had prepared the firewood and food, we started a fire to cook.
These people were extremely excited, as if they were out camping out. He seemed to have completely forgotten that there was still a war going on outside.
This made me feel that even college students were only half grown up.
Looking at them, he felt that he, too, was getting old.
After dinner. These people first shared some of the food with the old people, and then they started to enjoy their own food.
They sat in a circle around a bonfire, talking and laughing, and from time to time someone walked into the middle of the fire to sing or dance.
He Xiaotong also joined in the battle with them, playing until she forgot to think about the details.
I sat with a bunch of old Old Man ladies and watched those young people playing around.
He Xiaotong saw that I was hiding amongst a group of elderly people. I ran over and pulled me into a group of young people, but I kept feeling out of place.
He Xiaotong pulled me over to the bonfire that was surrounded by people. She insisted on letting me sing a song with her, but I had no idea what she was singing. She could only stand to the side and look at her in a daze.
They’ve been playing for a long time, and I’ll have to tell them all to stop tomorrow morning when they’re on their way.
They looked as if they hadn’t had enough fun, but they still dispersed.
I arranged for another ten to be on watch in the middle of the night. The ten of them spent the night.
I randomly picked a lawn to sleep on when He Xiaotong ran over and laid beside me.
I said snappily, Go back.
She put her arms around me, rolled her eyes at me, and squeezed. I was in so much pain that I wanted to withdraw my hand, but she held tightly onto my arm.
I didn’t dare to struggle too hard to get rid of her, for fear of hurting her.
She looked me in the eye and said defiantly, Are you afraid of me, or are you afraid of me?
Who’s afraid of you?
He Xiaotong laughed and said: What can I do if I lie beside you? You want me to go away, do you think I can eat you?
She let go of my hand, and I rolled over with my back to her.
Lying behind me, she whispered, What kind of woman is your wife?
When she asked me this question, I thought of Ye Ling. I thought for a moment and said: She is the person who understands me the best.
He Xiaotong didn’t say anything after hearing this. “Do you know how to use a gun?” I asked.
She gave a start, then nodded and said, Yes! My father taught me.
I took out the pistol at my waist and handed it to her.
She didn’t even try to be polite with me. Then she said, All right, let me protect you from now on.
The morning of the second day, I was in no hurry to set off for Luo City either.
Instead, he used his long sword to chop down a lot of branches, rattan, and bamboo to make weapons for those young people.
Train them all morning. No matter how much they trained, they wouldn’t be able to fight against the monsters.
And the reason I did that was just to give them some self-confidence.
When noon arrived, after we finished eating, we let them rest for a while. Then, I brought them and slowly advanced in the direction of Luo City.
We did not walk down the road, but crossed the hills on the path, but it was slow. We only walked four kilometers in an afternoon.
Because there were 20 old people, their speed was extremely slow. Even if they carried them on their back, they still wouldn’t be able to endure such a shock wave.
If they continued on like this, it would take them at least ten days to travel the distance that I spent flying here in less than a day.
However, there was no other way. He could only walk slowly.
We had just come down from a mountain and into a thick forest.
As we were advancing, a group of people rushed out from around the woods. Surrounding us, we heard the shouts of those at the forefront: Hand over all your valuables!
I was startled, I actually encountered a tribulation.
