I froze, my throat constricted, unable to speak."Give it to me. If you can't, then let me kill it." Aliyah narrowed her eyes dangerously at the child in my arms. "You don't have to worry about it, just pretend you haven't seen it."I was scared, hurriedly hid the child behind my back, and said. "Please, Aliyah, it's just a child. You give it a chance; we're all from the Blood Ocean anyway; we're one."Aliayh sucked in a breath and gritted her teeth, her eyes glaring like a monster. "I have to kill it. If you stop me, I'll kill you too.""All right then. If you're sure you want that, kill me first. If I die today, I must save this child's life." I held the baby close to my lap as if it sensed danger; this time also began to squeal.Hearing her daughter cry, being a mother, the woman choked out her hand, humming something in her throat that I couldn't hear clearly.Her noises attracted Aliyah, her sharp eyes darting over the woman, smiling coldly. "In that case, I will kill her first."
Now and then, she would glance over, and if I looked back, she would quickly look away. She and I both waited for the other to speak first.I thought about what to say when a cookie and a bottle of mineral water suddenly fell into my hand. Startled, I almost didn't catch it and dropped it. Fortunately, I reacted quickly to embrace both of them in my lap."Alpha has ordered me to take care of you; I can't let you die; hurry up and come to the training ground with me," Aliyah said coldly, still not looking at me.I grinned. After a long time of contact, I understood that Aliyah was a cold outsider hot inside; even though she said unkind words, she often cared about me. Not because of Brian's orders but simply because her heart is still full of love; she always considers me a friend and treats me sincerely. If yesterday, in exchange for someone else stopping Aliyah, he would have died under Aliyah's knife."Thank you." I picked up the cookie and ate it.Aliyah looked at me, emotionless;
"It's late, you bastard!" I laughed at the wolf's pointless escape, my hand gripping the knife even tighter, stabbing with all my might.There was a cracking sound, and the stone-hard skin protecting the wolf's heart began to crack. I put all my remaining strength into the pin until the handle stopped. Then only heard it howl in anger after the red stream flowed from its chest.It was disgusting; its blood was pouring into my face, and the smell of blood mixed with the corpses made my chest rise with nausea.When stabbed in the heart, the mad ferocious wolf becomes as weak as a piece of paper. I quickly kicked him off with my foot but had no strength left after that attack. I couldn't stand, only sitting on the ground panting.The wounds on my body also continued to bleed, making me look pitiful right now.I glanced at the wolf lying on the ground, breathing heavily; the blood all over his body was black, and only the blood in his heart was red. When his heart was damaged, his eyes al
Although I improved slightly in the following days, I could only lie in bed. Sometimes I would go out for a walk, but most of the time, Alan was with me.Seeing the soldiers patrolling, everyone's faces tense, I asked Alan. "How is the situation lately? Everyone seems to be very worried; I can't see Aliyah either. Is she busy with something?"After a while, I am still waiting for Alan's reply. I turned to look at him and saw that he was in a daze, like a lost soul. I tried waving my hand before him, but his gray eyes suddenly flashed. Alan looked at me, startled. "What did you just ask me?"I looked at him for a moment, then repeated the question.When he finished, Alan sighed, his eyes drooping, his voice filled with displeasure. "The war is extremely intense. Mutant werewolves appear more and more. They are too strong; we must form a team of at least five people to deal with them easily. Except for them, we were also constantly attacked by Richard from many sides; although the scale
Aliyah glanced down at the clock and said coldly. "Two minutes behind the milestone time I set. You may think that two minutes is nothing, but if you are standing in the middle of the battlefield, two minutes will send you to hell. The speed of dismantling and firing of a warrior is only allowed to accumulate in one minute; if that time is exceeded, it will be eliminated from the elite army."I pursed my lips, looking firmly at Aliyah. "I will try, won't let you down."Hearing my words, the corner of Aliyah's lips curled up. "Good, I'm sure you can do it. Anyway, our future Luna must be a wonderful person." Aliyah looked down at her watch, calculated something momentarily, then spoke. "You stay here to practice; try to get the shortest time. Today's goal is at least two minutes, okay?"Two minutes?I gulped nervously, then nodded.Aliyah walked past me, patting me on the shoulder and cheering me on. "Don't worry too much while stressed; it will inadvertently cause the nerves to tense,
I fired seven times in a row, but all went out, only one hit the target, but it was just luck on the edge.Aliyah was also very patient to watch from the side; she showed no discomfort when I missed the shot.I looked at the target in the distance several times, calmed my breathing, and pulled the trigger. This time I didn't shoot in quick succession; I shot once and then stopped again. If so, I can avoid waste by adjusting the deviation with the bullet.After a while of hard work, I finally had one close to the center of the target. But I don't know how many bullets I fired to complete this step.At first glance, shooting a gun is not a big deal. But after coming into contact with it, I realized that my previous knowledge was too limited. Gun training requires a high level of concentration and a solid mind. After a long time repeating a movement, my hands soon ached, and I was about to turn to paralysis."If you don't hit the heart, you can't return," Aliyah said casually.I have not
After finishing practice, I went to the lunch room at noon the next day. Although it is said to be a room, it is just a temporary place to cook; even in the middle of the forest, the terrain is complicated, but generally, the food here is well.With an empty stomach, I walked a little faster.But for some reason, I had a strange feeling when I walked in. But looking at one turn could not detect any abnormality; everyone was still sitting together, eating, talking, and chatting. I may be overthinking.I put that thought aside and went to see Alice, the girl in charge of distributing food these days.After receiving my lunch, I scanned for an empty place to sit. In fact, there are not many warriors here; most are still on duty, and at such times, they will stay in place to eat the cookies they brought.Sitting down, I heard the people at the following table talking."How do you think our commander will punish them?" the bearded man asked his friends.It's not my business, and I don't ca
In the middle of the way, I saw Alan checking the number of weapons to use tonight; watching the number of bombs and bullets made my heart cold. If that colossal number were to fall on a small area, it would instantly turn into a veritable hell.When he saw me, he lowered his eyes and asked in disappointment. "You still don't understand what I said at noon?"I shook my head, thoughtfully looking at the ammunition. "I have no intention of interfering, nor do I advise stopping. But I have a question that needs to be answered."Alan heard that I was clear and opened up more; he came over and asked. "What are you questioning? Tell me, let me hear it.""How many weapons and bombs will this attack take?" I seriously asked.Alan made a mental calculation and then spoke. "Pretty much; there are already two weapons trucks ahead. Bombs were also planted everywhere in the forest. This time Aliyah wanted to kill everyone in that area in one shot, so the usage was three times normal. A little more
