Although I just want to try it with a little fantasy, the miracles of this world will not come because of prayers——Evenir's apostolic power will not respond to purely erosive energy.

The soldier's eyes gradually clouded and turned gray.

The "alienation" in his body is intensifying.

"Do you... have anything else to say to her?"

"...I have... said goodbye..."

Efnir pursed her lips, lowered her gaze, and raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of the soldier's eyes.

"Yanilas, take her out."

This sentence has the meaning of both judgment and farewell. The nurse burst into tears, and then became low with the soft sound of closing the door.

"Sir...I..."

"Your lover, I will definitely take her back to Xijing safely...absolutely."

The soldier froze for a moment, his eyes lighted up slightly, but was immediately hidden by the gray matter.

"Thank you sir..."

He raised his hand with difficulty, put it between his eyebrows, and saluted Evenier.

Efnir also responded with a military salute, and the next second, an anesthetic needle was pierced into the soldier's neck.

Watching the soldier fall into a deep sleep, Evenier drew out his pistol.

boom--

There was a deep sound, blood bloomed, and the bullet casing fell to the ground.

26. Before the war

Nurses were sent to the rear units.

She did not accept Avenier's proposal to let her take a break, but immediately joined other treatment teams and devoted herself to work.

"I wouldn't leave him like this."

Saying that, she disappeared from Eveniel's sight.

Repetitive work is tiring, and tiring is mind-numbing. Is that nurse pursuing that kind of vengeful work that grows out of grief?

In other words, the obsession inherited from her lover can make her feel forgiven.

Efnir didn't say much, and left with Yanilas.

Kururina, this is the nurse's name, Evenier can only know so much from the brief conversation.

"Is that all right?"

Yanila asked.

"She's in the vanguard, so there won't be any problem with my transfer order."

Efnir buried the bullet case with a fistful of soil, stood up, and washed the blood off his palms with the help of the rain.

The bullet casings and blood were hot, while the rain and the soil were cold. The completely different temperature remained in Evenier's palm, from the skin deep into the blood vessels, to the depths of the heart.

The rain was pouring down.

The air echoed with the sound of gunfire from a distance—the same scene was constantly being played out by troops from all sides.

A large number of corpses cannot be brought back, so they can only be left in this wilderness where only the scenery is passable.

The pain brought by the erosive body will not disappear with the end of the battle, it will remain on the body of the injured forever in a cruel color, and it will continue the sacrifice and death as the "residue" executor .

But the living must face farewell and choice in grief and crying.

Evenier has seen too many such things. His seniors, comrades-in-arms, soldiers performing missions together, and strangers he doesn't know all have similar eyes.

No matter how many times he meets that gaze, Evenier cannot remain calm.

Taking a deep breath, Evenier lifted the hem of the blood-stained clothes, put it down again, and looked up.

"Miss Aveniel, you don't have to blame yourself, he died for his own beliefs."

"His death was meaningless."

Efnir lowered her gaze, watching the soil being submerged by raindrops.

Apostles are human beings.

To put it bluntly, this battle is nothing more than a meaningless infighting among humans.

"No matter where there are humans, there are differences and struggles... There is no way to do it, so we are standing here."

"She said the same thing to me before the last commander of the city left, and it was just unlikable."

I can understand it, but I can't agree with it.

"I hate fighting humans."

Evenier's original intention of becoming an agent, or in other words, the direction of her efforts all the time was not in this direction.

"Miss Aveniel..."

"Forget it, it's also meaningless to discuss this kind of thing, let's go, leave it to them here."

Efnir withdrew his gaze and took a step forward, Yanila quickly followed with small steps.

Looking at Evenier's profile, Yanila pursed her lips, and suddenly said: "Miss Avenier, you are very 'kind'."

Avnir didn't turn his gaze to her, but lowered the brim of his hood.

"If you're talking about those apostles... that's just the most basic kindness to the captives. Keeping them is better than killing them, although I don't think they will know more secrets."

The temperature of blood is not an unfamiliar experience for Evenier.

Evenier is not bloodthirsty, but he is not a soft-hearted person either.

"No, Miss Avenier, I still think you are a very 'kind' person. I know a person like this who has the same eyes as you. I also think there is absolutely nothing wrong with your 'kindness'...Miss Aveniel, I admire you very much and I envy you very much. That...you must not take what the commander said..."

"That matter... I don't care if I say it all."

The bullet in the magazine was missing a round. Evenier wiped the pistol clean under the drizzle, held it in his hand and looked at it for a while before retracting it to his waist.

"I'm an agent, not a soldier."

Maki Kuo is not a talkative person, and Evenier can roughly guess the reason why she said those words to Evenier.

She worried that Avenier would do something "redundant".

Efnir is the only one with the strongest combat power that can defeat Angel alone. One person can be equivalent to the entire second-generation team. Its importance is self-evident. From the perspective of Jiusao Maki, it is natural to hope that Efnir will abandon those "useless mercies". This is based on the consideration of a commander.

Those words can be said to be "advice", or they can also be understood as "warning".

For Maki Kuo, soldiers need to pull the trigger without hesitation, instead of thinking about "should it be" and "necessary or not".

But Evenier has always believed that agents and soldiers are different.

Efnir looked at Yanila again, hesitated for a moment, and said, "The commander seems to trust you...have you been under her for a long time?"

"Huh? It's actually not very long... about... a few months?"

"so……"

Although it's just a feeling, but... Yani Lasi seems to be very similar to Jiusheng Maki.

Not in character, but somewhere else.

This sense of déjà vu comes from the "self" faintly revealed when they speak, which is an indescribable subtle feeling.

At this time, a signal flare rose in the air, interrupting Evenier's words.

Evenier looked up.

"The 'train' has been repaired, and it is much faster than expected..."

Because the energy crisis of the "jammer" is imminent, Maki Kuo presumably only asked the engineering team to perform the lowest-level functional repairs, so the time was much faster than expected.

"It seems the rest of the time is spent preparing for battle."

"hope everything is fine."

But obviously, even if the battle with the apostle was won and the apostle had to retreat, the rest of the road must be difficult.

The next battle is still difficult.

Efnir looked at the direction of the rear troops, took a shallow breath, and poured moist air into his chest cavity.

……

------------

Preparations before the battle, Evenier found Xue Nai at the first time, this is their second reunion after two fierce battles.

"Naoko!"

Xue Nai called out Evenier's name loudly, and slammed into her arms. Amid Evenier's gentle smile and hug, she leaned forward, passed her hands across Evenier's neck, and hugged Avenir's neck like this, ignoring the rain on the long coat to wet her hair.

Xue Nai's lips trembled, she tiptoed slightly, and her breath could almost touch Avenier's lips.

But after all, she still didn't kiss her, but bit her lower lip lightly, and leaned her sideways face on Evenier's shoulder.

"What happened all of a sudden?"

"worry about you……"

Xue Nai didn't cry, but his face was still ugly. After becoming an agent, he saw such a hell in the second official battle, and it was undoubtedly a very heavy boulder for Xue Nai.

The corners of her hair were wet from the rain, and her body was also stained with bright red blood.

Fortunately, these bloodstains were not left by Xue Nai herself.

"I'm fine, as long as you're fine."

The appearance of Xue Nai made Evenier feel distressed, but she couldn't say any nice words to comfort her. She could only put on a gentle smile, put down Xue Nai who was almost hanging on her body, and rubbed the latter's hair.

She hesitated for a moment, then said, "Later...you act with us."

"real?!"

"Ah."

Xue Nai blinked blinkingly, and Evenier raised her hand and gently brushed her hair behind her ears.

"The next battle will be very hard, remember to bring your weapons."

This weapon, of course, refers to firearms.

……

27. Fully Armed

Yanila looked at the figures of Evenier and Xue Nai from a distance, under the hood, her side face looked a little tired.

The agents have all been through several battles, and no one is in good shape.

But now there is no more time left for them, they must devote themselves to the next battle as soon as possible - once the energy of the "shield" is exhausted, they must face the threat of the entire team being exposed to erosive energy and erosive bodies Although the danger in it could not be seen on Jiusheng Maki's cold face, everyone knew the critical situation.

The erosion bodies in the "occupied area" cannot be completely wiped out.

It is not that the People's Federation has prevented the encirclement and suppression of the erosion body in the outer Sakai area, but the final result is not satisfactory-the erosion body is born from the abnormal fluctuation of erosion energy, and is the product of the white hole erosion phenomenon. They are not life forms in the general sense that need to go through childhood to adulthood, but pure energy products.

To put it simply, as long as the phenomenon of white hole erosion still exists, the eroded body cannot be completely eliminated. Even if one or a hundred are killed, ten or a thousand will come out.

If it weren't for this, human beings would not have been forced to huddle in the city for 20 years and could not leave.

If the "barrier" is broken and besieged by countless monsters, this army of thousands of people may only survive in the end with experienced agents like Efnir and Yanilas.

That was the result Yanilas didn't want to see.

Sighing lightly, her breath turned into white air in the rain, Yanilas lowered her eyes, skillfully hung the assault rifle on the belt buckle, and picked up two pistols and grenades from the weapon table as spares.

The next battle is not just about facing the erosion body. Strictly speaking, there should be a lot of "residue" inside the "dead city".
