Infinity Armament

Chapter 38 Enhancing Friendship

Over the next two days, the Germans launched three more military operations against the bridge, one stronger than the other, and one more fierce than the other, as Shen Yi expected.

With the help of adventurers, the 2nd Airborne Battalion fought for two days and two nights in a row, surviving these three waves of powerful offenses, but in these three waves, the 2nd Airborne Battalion failed to complete an annihilation war, each time only to withstand the offense.

In the fourth wave of attacks, an adventurer was killed, while an adventurer blew up a leg. This is the first casualty in the Adventurer team since the bridge was taken. This means that the battle is getting harder and harder over time.

The fifth round of the Germans' offensive was launched at 4 p.m. on the sixth day.

Some 700 German soldiers plus 22 tanks and seven or eight artillery cannons almost flattened the town where the 2nd airborne battalion was located. The fighting lasted until the early hours of the seventh day, when the Germans finally retreated and glanced over, and the town was full of flames.

The wounded soldier lay down on the battlefield and mourned. The soldiers who walked vigorously were looking everywhere, looking for ammunition in the ruins, looking for enemy soldiers, so as to make up for each other's wounded, and see if there was a chance to save them...

The inhabitants of the town looked at their broken homes and were no longer as excited about the arrival of British paratroopers as they had been before.

They walk unconsciously on the ruins as if they were lonely souls in the wilderness.

Sitting on an abandoned tank, Shen looks at this staring cold scene, motionless like a stone.

And he came to him gently and sat down and said to himself, "Look at the way things are. It's really hard to wonder how the world was formed, what really made it all so real. I used to think they were just tools used by bloody cities to test us, and there was no real thought and emotion. But now look, they're sad, they're desperate, they're happy, they're suffering, they're angry, they hate, they laugh, they're crazy. Can you say they're all NPCs? ”

Shen Yi obviously stayed for a while and thought about it. He shook his head: “I never thought about it so much. All I know is that bloody city sent us to this shithole, let us go through war and bloody pain, taste death and despair, and its purpose will never be to let us experience the philosophy of life, the significance of life in battle. So whether they're real or fake doesn't matter to me, and it's important that we get out of this place alive. ”

Gently chuckling out loud, it was even beautiful: “That's what I said, but I couldn't help but wonder why bloody cities exist? Who created it, and what's the point of its existence? ”

“Why must it be meaningful?” Shen Yi asked back: “Does everything in the world really have to have an answer? If that's the case, what's the point of being human? Can't you live without knowing what the point is? ”

Gentle beam: “Don't you think there should be an answer about the history of the bloody city? ”

“I don't think so. Shen Yi replied:“ Like the stars, the moon, the sun, they all exist. Existence is existence, and there is no point. Meaning is just a word invented by man, and it doesn't make sense in itself. I have no interest in why bloody cities exist, just as I live on Earth without thinking about why I'm human, why I have to learn, why I have to work, and why there are things that I hate. Perhaps the bloody city itself is a world, and all the tasks, all the rewards, are just components of this world, and it's the way it works, just like a man eating and drinking Lassard is a biblical and earthly thing. ”

“Then why are we here? ”

“Perhaps because life on Earth is self-nourishing and growing, the world can only rely on plunder. ”

Gently smiled: “I've never heard such a novel view. Then why were only humans plundered? ”

“Perhaps not only humans.” Shen Yi replied.

Gently stunned: “You mean…”

“If this is a world, then perhaps there is more than one bloody city.” Shen Yi replied: “It's like there's more than one nation, more than one race, more than one nation on the planet… Forget it, I said there's no need to explore why it exists, here our only meaning is survival, combat and strength. ”

Looking gently at Shen Yi, he said for a long time: "Looks like you've adapted to the new environment. ”

“Survival of the fittest, the universal law of any world.” Shen Yi replied.

This is Shen Yi's view of the bloody city.

When many people think that the bloody city is the creation of a god, Shen Yi thinks that it may not necessarily be the creation of a god, maybe this is the form of the world itself. Just as the essence of matter is sport, the essence of the world is the circle of life and death. It does not matter whether this view is correct or not. It is important to adapt quickly to the world rather than to exhaust all our energies to explore the significance of its existence. The former is like a scientist who struggles with the mysteries of the universe on Earth, who may be brilliant, or knowledgeable, but will never find all the unknown answers. And the latter, like the king of the human world, may know nothing about the composition of the world, but in his lifetime he can look down on it. And Shen Yi, he chose to become the latter.

This is also the choice of most people.

“Shen, come to me for a second.” Frost's cry was intended for a gentle conversation.

Shen Yi walked over with a gun: “What is it? ”

“We're running out of ammunition.” Frost came up to Shen Yi with a terrible message, then turned to greet his soldiers and shouted, “Well done, my brothers, we have repelled another attack by the Germans. I know you're struggling, but hold on, the Allies will be here soon! ”

“How long can it last?” Shen Yi asked softly.

“Maybe two days, maybe a day, depends on the intensity of the fight. Yesterday to today, two thirds of our ammunition was dropped in one day, and then our heavy machine guns will be used as snipers.” Frost walked shallow and deep on the ruins with a victorious smile on his face, which gave the soldiers confidence.

“How many tanks do we have left? ”

“With one tank left, three artillery guns and more than thirty shells, the situation cannot get any worse. ”

“My side is not well either. My people can no longer be as fearless of bullets as they were at the beginning. Too long a battle has consumed a great deal of energy, and this time it has never been a trick. ”

“Yeah, I saw you guys die.” Frost sighs that the SWAT team is not the Almighty God, and it can't have been blade and gun all the time: “That's exactly why I came to you.” He stopped and stood under a shaded tree, surrounded by no one to say: "We are not only facing the problem of insufficient ammunition, we are also under-used. Almost 200 brothers died, the 2nd airborne battalion is actually an airborne company, now only 300 people are healthy under my hands, the rest are short of arms and legs, no ammunition, no one, I'm not even sure I can repel another enemy attack. Worst of all, the news has just come to light that the Allied mainstay was stubbornly blocked by the Germans just off that road, making it impossible to reach Arnham for a short time. ”

Shen Yihu put out a breath.

As expected, fighting is becoming more and more difficult.

A soldier came over and said, "Hey, Captain Frost, I've got a knife. Look how pretty it is. It's a Japanese knife. ”

“That's good stuff!” Frost called back, "I'll show it to your mother when I get back, she'll love it. ”

The soldier was happy to leave.

Turning back, Frost said to Shen Yi, "To tell you this, I want you to understand the situation we are facing. Shen, to be honest, I don't think you're professional soldiers. Of course, it's no wonder you're all people with special functions. Maybe the British government invited you here for a lot of money, maybe General MacArthur sees you as his cards, but now it doesn't look like you can make a difference. In that case, you cannot be left here to die for nothing. ”

“You mean…”

“Go back.” Frost twisted his head: "Where he came from, where he went back, there was no need to stay here and take risks with us. ”

With Frost's words appearing, there was a sudden clanging sound on the bloody crest: "Branch of plot turns: Frost's suggestion. You can now choose whether to abandon the optional task. Abandon optional tasks with no penalty, without any rewards and zero friendship. ”

Shen Yi shrugged slightly. He didn't expect that the dramatic branch would change to this. According to the bloody city, this is a self-help measure given by the bloody city at a critical juncture. The battle that follows will obviously become harder and harder to fight. At this time, choosing to retreat while still preserving lives and persisting will be in immense danger. The problem is that Shen Yi noticed that other adventurers did not have any expression on their faces and did not hear each other at the same time, indicating that they did not receive information about the direction of this branch.

In other words, the decision can only be made by oneself.

Why is this happening? Obviously, this kind of branch turns into a plot, and it's also not accessible to anyone. Not friendly enough to start a branch plot at all. This should be another hidden part of the plot, in times of crisis, to get you out of danger right away.

However, Shen Yi did not intend to give up just like this.

In his view, if the first formal mission were to be abandoned as such, he would have lost the courage to face danger while gaining security. Since the world of bloody cities is the world of the only powerful, it is either dead or alive and strong.

He didn't hesitate to say to Frost, "I'm not leaving, Frost. As you said, I am not a professional soldier, and we are the British government that has asked for help at great cost, and it is General MacArthur's secret card. But we are not just fighting for money; we are equally burdened with national pride and glory on our shoulders. I want you to understand that it's not just soldiers who have blood, it's not just soldiers who know how to sacrifice for their country. As a British citizen, I know what I'm doing. Sacrifice for your country… this is yours and our pride! ”

Frost looked at Shen Yi, seemingly unanticipated that Shen Yi would say so.

Finally, he appeased a military salute to Shen Yi: “Colonel Frost, Commander of the 2nd Airborne Battalion, on behalf of all the soldiers of the 2nd Airborne Battalion, extends his deepest thanks and highest regards to you! ”

Tink, Bloody Seal Tip: Abandon Frost's advice, earn Frost's respect, and greatly increase your friendship with 2nd Airborne Camp, currently at 450 points. In the next battle, you will receive 2: 25 percent of the 2nd Airborne Battalion soldiers. This difficulty task is primary and has a maximum Friendship value of 500 points.

This time, Shen Yi was prepared.
