2719 Cruel Facts
No one was in the mood to chat. They used tree branches to build shelter from the rain. They took out waterproof mats from their backpacks and laid them on the ground. They kicked off their military boots and poured the rainwater out of their boots. They didn’t even change their wet socks. They wrung them dry and wore them again. Then, they wore their military boots…
Everyone was silently doing their work. No one mentioned Q King and Azure Bird. It was as if the two of them were still with them, so the rest didn’t have to worry too much.
While they were waiting, the ground shook violently again. Everyone rushed out of the shelter. One by one, the clueless people stood in the heavy rain. Their gazes were straight as they looked forward viciously.
A second cave-in occurred at a corner of the collapsed mountain!
“Damn it!”
!!
Someone raised his hand and shook the leaves around him violently. He gritted his teeth and said two vicious words.
Before there was any news, there was a second collapse!
Li Jinnian’s eyes were so red that blood seemed to be about to burst out. He had already grabbed a branch from the bushes tightly. He pulled it tightly, causing the branch to wrap around his palm as if it was going to cut into his flesh.
“Stay in place!”
After a while, he gave the order in a hoarse voice. His cold voice trembled slightly.
‘Azure Bird, my younger cousin!
‘Don’t disappoint me!
‘Don’t make Uncle sad!
‘Don’t make Grandpa sad too!’
Everyone clenched their fists tightly. They wanted to go and save them, but no one could do it at this moment!
“Demon King, let me go!” V8 roared in a low voice. “I can’t stay here. Let me go! My captain and my comrades might be waiting for us!”
Li Jinnian turned his head abruptly and glared at V8. He pointed at his chest and said, “I want to go over more than anyone else! Your captain and your comrade are my comrades too!
“But don’t forget who we are!
“We are the special forces soldiers that the country spent a huge amount of effort to groom. They have high hopes for us. We’re the top special forces soldiers who will be produced generation after generation! Due to the responsibility we shoulder, we can never be impulsive.”
V8’s eyes were red. His chest heaved up and down as if there was a huge wave hitting the shore. The rainwater flowed into his eyes, stimulating his eyes to turn redder and brighter. “Are we going to watch helplessly as something happens to our comrades?
He didn’t shout, but every word he said was filled with more viciousness than shouting. There was intense sorrow in the depths of his eyes.
“Fight for the country, fight for the people! If it were ordinary people, we would have to save them! Because we’re soldiers, we fight for the people!” Li Jinnian closed his eyes tightly and replied to V8 in a heavy voice, “As for our comrades, they’re soldiers! They know what sacrifice is and what… the loss of the country means!”
If something really happened, it would just be the two of them. However, if another comrade went there, he might get into trouble.
This was what it meant to lower the sacrifice rate! This was it!
As soldiers, they had to face this cruel reality!
This was an unchangeable fact. They had to accept it!
