Chapter 0652: Insects Fly
"I really want to thank you Caesar for your help this time, otherwise the eight of us really don't know what to do!" Yuri glanced at the cultists and refugees who were gathering not far away, even if a group of wounded people were sent away, there were still fifty or sixty people left, and even with our help, it would not be easy to get them out safely.
"What are you talking about, we are brothers, since we met, how can we not help!" I patted Yuri on the shoulder, most of the Caesar people believe in God, and it is their honor to work for God, of course, there are atheists like me, we are not for God, for brothers.
"Assassin, it's going to be pulled out immediately, the captain is looking for you!" The star stood in the crowd and shouted at me.
"Got it, come right away!" I waved my hand, turned my head and said, "It's about to go, you can send these weapons down quickly, and we'll see you later." With that, I ran over to the captain with my gun in hand.
"What's the matter, Captain?" I hurried to the captain, who was forming the refugees, and Pandora was helping in front.
"We're going to go soon, the Templars are opening the way in front, we're blocking the pursuers behind the team, and we're giving you a special mission to keep Archbishop Odin safe, he's an important person, don't let him hang up."
Caesar seems to be the only one who knows Odin except the goddess, so the captain gave me this task without hesitation.
"Isn't he protected by the Templar Order? I still feel more secure with my brothers. "Being a bodyguard is not for me, it's enough to have goddesses to protect me, and my brothers all need my cover.
"Less nonsense, you and Archbishop Odin walk in the middle of the line, this is the order." The captain glared at me.
"Okay, you're the boss, do whatever you say?" I reluctantly saluted, looked around the crowd, and finally found Odin, the goddess was beside him, and the two didn't know what they were talking about.
"Then I'll go." I spoke to the captain and turned to run towards Odin.
A few minutes later, a team of hundreds of people set off from the church, because there were too many people, the goal was too obvious, we were divided into three teams, the Templar Order with those young believers who had been shots walked in front, those nuns and weaker refugees walked in the middle, I and the goddess Star and a few other people to protect Odin were also arranged in the middle, followed by Caesar's fighters, who were responsible for blocking the pursuers There were also more than 20 people.
There were rebels in the east and south, and we had to go all the way north, through the endless grasslands, and make a detour back to the agreed place with the Flying Eagle.
Walking on the African savannah, there are half-human-high weeds everywhere, the sunset falls in the distance, the light breeze blows on the body, the temperature gradually becomes cooler, not as hot as noon, but there is one biggest disadvantage in this dusk, that is, the African giant mosquito that can suck the blood of people.
Every time at this time, all kinds of mosquitoes are like coming out to forage for food, buzzing around people in groups, if you accidentally bite a bite, not only painful and itchy but also swollen and packed, if you are unlucky to encounter poisonous insects, it is more uncomfortable than being stabbed, ten days and half a month are not good, I have been bitten several times in Africa during this time, itching night can not sleep.
I knew it was going to happen, I was almost fully armed, my exposed skin was covered with insect repellent paint, and I was sprayed with strong insect repellent, and although the big mosquitoes still surrounded me, they rarely landed on my body and bitten.
The sun gradually went down, the sky was completely dark, and we walked for five hours in a row, but fortunately the pursuers did not come up, and we did not feel anything, and many of the refugees could not walk, especially the women among them had poor physical strength, and most of them could not bear the five-hour march.
Seeing their listless expressions as if they were about to fall at any moment, I saw that it was late at night, and Archbishop Odin was relatively old and had long been exhausted, but in order to get everyone to a safe place as soon as possible, he gritted his teeth and didn't say anything.
I had expected this situation for a long time, and that is why we would rather fight with our pursuers than take them on for their lives, and it would be no longer an option to go on like this, and it would be more troublesome to exhaust them.
Just as I was about to ask the captain if he could rest, the captain's voice came over the radio: "Stop moving forward and rest in place for an hour." ”
I was also relieved to hear this order, and immediately told everyone to rest in place, and as soon as the words were spoken, several nuns and refugees fell to the ground, and the goddess walked up to me and shook her head, "If the pursuers come up now, how many of them will survive?" ”
"Then you can only resign yourself to fate, don't look at them can't run now, if there are bullets chasing after them, maybe they can run faster than you." I took the jug and took a sip of it, then wiped the corner of my mouth and handed it to the goddess.
"After running for so long, there hasn't been any movement, and the pursuers shouldn't come up so quickly." The goddess took a sip of water, picked up the night vision binoculars and looked in the direction behind her.
"You've been staying with the Holy See since I rescued you, and I didn't have time to ask you if there were any injuries on your body? Did Han Zhong's subordinates do anything to you? "I snatched the binoculars and took the goddess a few steps to the side and sat on the ground, and only now did I have a chance to speak.
"What can that waste do to me, don't worry, I'm just locked up and don't suffer anything." The goddess lay on the haystack and stretched, and I was relieved to hear her say that.
"Fortunately, Han Zhong is just a businessman, if it were those ruthless militants, I can't imagine what the result would be?" I sighed, my nerves had been tense until I found the goddess, but luckily she was safe, otherwise I might have gone insane.
"What would you do if I didn't come back?" The goddess asked with her head propped up with her arms and big eyes blinking.
"Then I'll tie up a bomb and die with that bunch of debris." I didn't think about it all the time, because I always believed that the goddess would be okay and that God would bless her, and if that day came my way, I didn't know how crazy I would be, and even if I barely survived, I would be a walking dead.
The goddess didn't speak, she lay on the ground and looked up at the stars in the night sky, I lay beside her, and I felt a kind of joy in my heart, the starry sky of the grassland was exceptionally beautiful, especially tonight, the sky was cloudless, the stars were shining, if there was no war, the beauty here was like heaven.
A few little bugs flew around, under the light on the helmet, flapping their wings and circling around us, and they should have slapped them to death, but at this moment they thought they were cute, and I couldn't help but think of a song I used to hum when I was still in school.
"The stars of the sky weep, and the roses of the earth wither."
"Worms fly, worms fly."
"Who are you missing?"
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but sing, I couldn't help but laugh when I sang, I laughed and laughed out of tears, the bitterness of this journey was too difficult, and now what should be lost, what should not be lost, are all lost, only the hand next to me is interlocked.
