"Father, I brought Galina and Andina to see you."
Galina and Andina stood beside Hayes, and then placed the flowers in their hands in front of the tombstone.
"Father, Hayes is fine, you don't have to worry."
Jialina's voice was also choked with sobs. After all, it was this veteran who gave her a chance to survive.
"I'll take good care of him."
When standing in front of the tombstone engraved with the name of Ouranios, Hayes felt a little complicated because he had never been able to understand this man. He taught himself a lot, but he also said some things that he did not understand. Although some words are now He already understands, but there are still many things he doesn’t understand.
But what he can be sure of is that this man is extraordinary, and even his intuition tells him that this man is probably not dead.
"Hayes, he is"
Andina asked curiously, and Hayes replied slowly:
"My company commander, my battalion commander, my mentor."
"Is there anyone alive! Is there anyone alive!?"
Hearing this voice, Hayes struggled to stand up from the pool of blood, still holding a fighting knife in his hand.
A few minutes ago, the position was almost breached, and the remaining 100 people were forced to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. After Hayes killed two enemies with his gun, he fought closely with the third one. They were rolling in a pool of blood and mud. But in the end, it was Hayes who inserted the dagger into the opponent's neck. The price was that his left hand was shot twice by the opponent's pistol at close range. Now there is only a bit of flesh hanging on it, and his face was stabbed twice.
"Company Commander. I'm here."
Soon, a figure ran over.
"Hayes, great, I thought you were killed."
Olanios, who had almost no clean part of his body, glanced at Hayes' left arm, then took out a knife and began to treat the wound.
He tied Hayes' shoulder with a strip of cloth, and then cut off the scraps of skin and rotten flesh with a knife. Hayes remained silent during the process.
"Quick! I need your help!"
Staggeringly, he followed Oranios forward, and the other party brought him to an almost useless melta cannon. Not far away, a terrifying creature was tearing apart the remaining parts of a screaming soldier.
It was a hellbeast.
"Our leader has withdrawn, and those enemies have also escaped. Now we must deal with this thing if we want to survive!"
Then he patted Hayes on the head.
"This is the firing trigger. You use this to aim at it, and I'll attract it! When you reach this scale, you shoot!"
"Batalion Commander, how about I-"
"Don't talk nonsense, remember, don't let it notice you! It's a hell beast, its senses are very sharp, most living creatures can detect it!"
After saying that, Oranios picked up the command sword from nowhere, roared and rushed towards the hell beast. Hayes leaned his body behind the melt cannon, holding the shooting handle with his remaining hand. Keep one eye firmly on the sight.
Ouranios attracted the attention of the Hellbeast. The crazy machine roared and swung its spiked whip, but they were dodged by this incredible man. He struck several times on the Hellbeast's armor, but only splashed out. There was a burst of sparks, and then he turned and ran away when the opponent tried to shoot. The crazy machine immediately gave up shooting and ran towards the little thing that was harassing it.
Everything seems to be going according to plan——
But Hayes's vision was becoming blurry. He had lost too much blood and his brain was dizzy. Even the sounds were gradually fading away. He just wanted to take a good nap.
He longed to sleep -
"Hayes! Hayes!"
I don't know how long it took, Hayes opened his eyes suddenly, and saw that his entire shirt was almost turned into strips of cloth, and there were several shocking scars on his body. He was struggling to resist the hell beast, which was only fifteen years away from him. About meters!
He didn't know how long he had just been delayed, and he quickly wanted to take aim. However, the sight of the melta cannon had been damaged before, and its huge barrel made it very difficult for Hayes, who had only one arm left, to turn, but he still bit Gritting his teeth, he did not hesitate to use his broken arm to push up the tail of the cannon. He endured the severe pain caused by the torn wound and struggled to adjust the firing angle of the melt cannon.
But only three seconds later, Ouranios was suddenly whipped away by the hell beast with a whip. This crazy demon machine noticed Hayes and raised the weapon on its arm. Its remaining consciousness knew that it was dangerous. thing.
The hell beast's muzzle lit up, and Hayes finally locked the opponent in the sights, yelling and clasping his fingers at the same time.
boom------
After the loud noise, Hayes fell into endless darkness, unable to see his fingers and there was no light at all.
He shouted loudly, and it seemed that in a particularly empty environment, no one responded yet, and he couldn't even hear his own echo.
Everything was so silent that it made people feel hairy. Hayes suddenly thought of death. Ouranios once said that death means no longer having any perception of this world. The soul only exists in a void, where there is nothing.
The throne is more of a comfort.
Since he stayed, Hayes was not afraid of death, but at this moment, he actually felt an unspeakable fear, and he didn't know why.
He suddenly thought of those people who died. They were all in pain before they died. Would he like them now, go to that place of nothingness, where there is nothing?
I don’t know how long it took.
Hayes' ears picked up the sound.
It was a wheezing sound, heavy breathing, like after a long run. The sound was very real, as if it was ringing in his ears, although he still felt nothing.
Then he felt himself being picked up. When he vaguely opened his eyes, he only saw an indifferent square face, firm eyes and a bright red headband on his forehead. Then his consciousness completely sank into darkness.
When he woke up again, he was already in a remote field hospital and knew that he had lost another leg. The person who brought him was the 2nd Catachan Regiment, and the person who saved him was the famous Les Mabo.
It was Mabo who retrieved the things he left behind on the battlefield.
When the impassive Catachan asked him if he wanted to return to the army, Hayes just shook his head.
"Battal Commander, I hope you are alive too. If there is a chance, I would like to hear your story again."
Finally, Hayes found his tombstone. It all seemed so funny, but so real. Hayes touched the simple name on the tombstone with mixed feelings in his heart.
In a sense, some part of him is buried here forever.
At this moment, the huge display in the center of the Soldiers Cemetery suddenly flapped, and then began to play the picture. Hayes turned around and saw a grand military parade, with demigods wearing power armor standing in line and holding glorious weapons. Battle flags, as well as countless Astral Militia formations with their heads high and chests high, various armors, artillery, and fighter planes were lined up on a grand avenue.
A towering giant wearing silver power armor stood on a giant golden vehicle, inspecting the troops. Each troop shouted the same words as he passed by.
For the Emperor!
