Chapter 277, I Have No Choice
When the power was like the magma under the crater began to churn, then all the living beings that fell into the crater would be melted away by the crimson flames.
Human’s desire for power has never disappeared, otherwise Li wouldn’t have created things like nanobots to put into the military.
Ren Xiaosu felt the raging flames within his body, he took a step forward with his sword, the nano warriors watched with stunned expressions as he swept past, they wanted to raise their nano peyote swords to slash at Ren Xiaosu, but at this time, the crushing speed made it seem as if one of them was being pressed into ‘slow play’.
The black knife sliced across the chest of a nanobot, and the knife he was holding in front of his chest was sliced out in a neat and smooth section, and then his body fell apart.
A nanosoldier was hit by Ren Xiaosu along with the outer cladding armor due to his inability to dodge, he felt that his chest cavity was collapsing, his blood had nowhere to go due to being squeezed, it could only pool in the broken blood vessels in his body.
More than a dozen nano warriors surrounded Ren Xiaosu, and a nano knife slashed at his back, but it could only cut a crack in the outer cladding armor, and couldn’t even hurt Ren Xiaosu’s skin.
The crack in the external armor was rolling outward, hideous and terrifying.
It was only at this instant that the nano warriors suddenly realized that the original nanobots should be used in this way!
When Ren Xiaosu’s powerful physical qualities were combined with the outer cladding armor, it was like a real siege machine, rampaging and intimidating.
Some of the nano warriors were starting to get scared, he didn’t know how he could defeat the thick and powerful machine in front of him, his heart was covered with a sense of powerlessness!
He picked up the gun on the ground and roared and began to fire wildly into the tent, as if that would remove the fear from his heart.
But this roar came to an abrupt end in the next second, the black knife in Ren Xiaosu’s hand pierced into his chest, blood quickly filling his alveoli and forming blood foam inside.
Ren Xiaosu slowly pulled the black knife out, “Invincible, how is it on your side.”
Chen Wou Xie slung the golden hoop over his shoulder, “Done!”
It was only at this point that Ren Xiaosu retreated his outer cladding armor, and the black blade was also included in the palace, he looked to the side of the mess, the tent had actually not collapsed yet.
Only the situation does not seem good, Ren Xiaosu looked at the ground lying “comrades”, some just in the nanowarriors shot dead, some are still hugging headache crying.
But Ren Xiaosu didn’t care how they were doing, but looked towards Li Qingzheng and Wang Yuchi: “Are you hurt?”
Ren Xiaosu frowned and realized that Wang Yuchi had blood on his legs, as did several of the students, but Li Qingzheng was fine at all.
Wang Yuchi’s face was covered in sweat, “Got hit in the leg by a gun, the bone might be broken, class leader look at the others, they seem to be injured as well.”
Ren Xiaosu counted the number of injured students, there were 5 of them, and the injuries they received were not light, they needed to deal with the warheads left in their bodies before they could do so.
“We can’t stay here any longer,” Ren Xiaosu said, “Let’s take advantage of the fact that there’s a war going on right now to escape out of here, grab a truck, and make a trip back to 108 Barrier first!”
This crisis made Ren Xiaosu realize that there were already people who were able to connect the many events together, and it would only be more dangerous for him to continue staying in Li.
Ren Xiaosu said to Chen Wufei, “You carry the injured ones out, you guys wait for me outside for a while.”
Li Qingzheng consciously helped carry the injured out, after everyone else had gone out, Ren Xiaosu snapped the necks of the other ‘comrades’ one by one, these people knew too much to keep.
He took out all the pots and pans, shovels, hammers and other things in his storage space, leaving only the gold and food, and then loaded the nanobots on those nano fighters into them.
After doing this, Ren Xiaosu walked out of the tent and carried the wounded to the outside with the others.
Position 313 was already a mess, Qing’s artillery fire was so fierce that it was unimaginable, no one paid any attention to them, even the other combat sequences that were coming and going only thought that they were the wounded that had retreated from the front line.
“There’s a vehicle over there!” Ren Xiaosu whispered, “The driver is still in the car, grab it!”
This place was already very close to the entrance of position 313, as long as they grabbed the car, they could immediately rush out, and no one would discover their whereabouts during this chaotic time.
However, right at this moment, a strange group of soldiers came running in from outside the position, a strange feeling flooded Ren Xiaosu’s heart, this group of soldiers moved too neatly, and there seemed to be no emotion in their eyes.
This was a fully organized battalion, with five hundred men!
Ren Xiaosu lowered his head and tried to lead Chen Wuxi and the others to brush past this group, but the officer at the forefront of that group suddenly called out to them, “Which combat sequence are you from?”
The voice was mechanical and calm, and Li Qingzheng immediately came up and explained, “We are from the 7th Infantry Regiment, we were wounded and retired, and are on our way to the medical clinic.”
The officer glanced at Ren Xiaosu and the others and continued, “Take me to the position where the Heroic Battalion is.”
Ren Xiaosu’s fists suddenly clenched, these people were actually rushing towards him again?
What to do, if the other party was really 500 nano warriors as Ren Xiaosu guessed, then Ren Xiaosu and Chen Wuyou couldn’t beat them even if they were gods.
Moreover, in this open field, it would be too noticeable if they fought!
While Ren Xiaosu was urgently thinking about what to do, he heard Li Qingzheng laugh, “Alright, I’ll take you guys there.”
Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment, and then saw Li Qingzheng turning back to him with a bitter smile, “You guys hurry up and go to the medical clinic, don’t delay the treatment of your wounds, I’ll take the officers to the Hero Battalion’s position and then meet up with you.”
Ren Xiaosu was stunned, “You ……”
“I what I,” Li Qingzheng laughed: “I’m not happy enough, okay you guys go.”
With that, Li Qingzheng then suddenly turned around and resolutely walked towards the high ground where the Heroes Camp was located without looking back.
Real war and life are like this, it’s too late to say anything very magnificent or to stir up emotions, accidents happen at any time and then take away your familiar people and familiar smiles.
Ren Xiaosu resolutely turned toward the truck, “No one is allowed to turn back.”
Wang Yuchi struggled, “Squad leader ……”
Ren Xiaosu lowered his voice and roared, “I said I’m not a good person! That beam of light of mine is long fucking gone!”
Wang Yuchi and the others were speechless for a moment, not even knowing what that beam of light Ren Xiaosu was talking about.
Only Chen Wuxi understood, he remembered that in the afternoon, Master said: If I had a choice, I would actually want to be a person with light in my heart, but I don’t have a choice.
It’s not that I don’t want to choose, it’s that life has never given me this option, and the only two options I see are life on one side and death on the other.
This is the wasteland.
