"I don't want to be a hero, I'm just an ordinary person. Such a ability is so powerful that I can't bear it and can't control it. I, I, I can't attract too many people's attention because of this. I don't want to betray you, don't want to - don't want - you, do you understand what I mean?"

Yang Hua's face was pale, and his heavy breathing moved the clear lines of his body to tremble involuntarily. The mental impact and entanglement caused him to exhaust all his strength. His feet became soft and he collapsed on the ground, staring at the zombie of the giant rat next to him in a daze.

He is an honest man.

He is also a man with a strong sense of responsibility.

Lin Xiang can understand his complicated psychology at this moment. It is like an ant who suddenly gains strength that is stronger than a giant elephant. Ecstasy, anxiety, arrogance, caution... All kinds of negative and proper normal thinking will pour into his mind in an instant, impacting the original simple concept into pieces and ruins.

"You said you don't want to die." Lin Xiang walked to his side and sat down slowly.

"But what I want is definitely not the way to live now-"

Yang Hua, with a ferocious expression, veins suddenly popped up on his swollen neck: "I just want to have a peaceful and free life. You have saved my life, saved my woman, my son. I don't want to bring you harm and danger because of my reasons. I admit that I am a cowardly person who cannot withstand temptation and threats. And you... are a good person."

"You are happier than me."

Looking at the dense lead clouds under the heavy pressure on the horizon in the distance, Lin Xiang's calm voice seemed to be a faint echo from another world through time and space: "The people you love, they also love you deeply. Do you still remember when I rescued you from those mercenaries? When I was knocked over to the ground and humiliated my wife and children in person, you probably dreamed of getting powerful power more than anyone else. There is no so-called morality in this world, people can only rely on it.

Do things with your heart. Just like you said - give your life to me in exchange for your own life. In fact, I can't use anything to restrain you. I don't want to reveal my secrets, and I don't want to watch you die. Don't ask me why I did this, maybe it's because of your family, maybe it's because we all have the same yellow skin and dark eyes, or because of something else... I saved you, and my blood was bleeding on you. That's enough."

The wind retreated, the thick clouds quickly changed shapes frantically, drawing a fleeting light blue under the gray sky.

In the empty wilderness, two men leaned on off-road vehicles and stared silently into the distance.

After a long time, Yang Hua asked slowly: "Do you have someone you love?"

His voice was very light and his tone was very gentle. But it was like a sharp needle, piercing into the deepest part of Lin Xiang's heart. The white figure in his memory had become very far away, far away with the vague helicopter.

“Of course there is.”

"You should be with her. Not alone like you are now."

Perhaps sensing his emotional changes, Yang Hua suddenly sighed quietly: "You are right. People should indeed do things based on their own heart..."

After a moment of silence, he said again: "Promise me one thing."

Lin Xiang turned his head and glanced at him: "Tell me!"

"Help me get some potassium hydride and put it here-"

As he said that, Yang Hua opened his mouth and pointed to a hollow molar on the right side of the gum. He said seriously: "I am not a strong-willed person. If one day I am forced and threatened and can't stand it... doing this will be good for you and me."

To the west of Emma City, there is an extremely vast wilderness. There is rich river network, dense vegetation, and extremely fertile land. According to books in the old era, it belongs to an extremely important grain-producing area.

Because of this, this place has become a key area for nuclear warheads to attack.

The radiation of this wilderness is much thicker than other areas, and the strong rays change the normal habits of plants. Most of the young plants drilled under the thick radiant soil are highly toxic, and they have almost no sound of music or laughter from guests. Bergson's long gaze becomes colder.

"Do we need to increase our troops towards Yinyue Town?" After a brief thought, Otilia asked.

"no need--"

Bergson waved his hand to her back: "The young man named Lin Xiang is very strong. In the whole incident, his performance can reach a very high score. What is particularly rare is that he can actually make the powerful parasite named Wang Biao bow down and obey the order."

Otilia nodded subconsciously: "Lin Xiang is just an ordinary person. In him, I can't feel any evolutionary or strengthened supernatural aura."

"Spend more time on Wang Biao. A powerful two-star parasite is worth spending a lot of money to win over."

After a few minutes of silence, Bergson suddenly smiled in the dark side: "As for Lin Xiang, you should protect his safety as much as possible. A parasitism and a talented manager are the biggest gains of Sosbia. However, when you act, you should pay attention to the Skeleton Knights. Although those guys have no desire to possess the land, they have a strong interest in parasitism."

"...What should those townsmen do?" Otilia's eyebrows slightly frowned.

"It would be better that they were all killed by Ferdinand's people. Only in this way can they best meet our interests-"

Bergson obviously had considered this issue: "We can naturally take that land for ourselves in the name of revenge. If only women and the elderly and the weak are killed, then the men who survived by chance will actively join Sosbia and become cheap and bravest mercenaries. Hahaha! Hatred is the best fighting catalyst... You are right, you should indeed increase troops to Yinyue Town, with a limited increase. Before the town is devastatingly attacked, withdraw all the strong men as much as possible. They will kill all the Ferdinands under the command of anger."

Otilia kept lowering her head, and her drooping black hair covered her face. Although she couldn't see her expression, it didn't matter, because there was never any expression on her face.

The thin morning mist filled the wilderness, dense, as if it would lock in the darkness before the sun rose forever.

Lin Xiang held a ssg3000 sniper rifle and sat on the side of a rock about two meters above the ground, looking coldly at several gray-green camouflage tents standing on the shrubs and sandy ground more than 500 meters away. On the tarpaulin facing the outermost edge, there was a striking white sword and shield crossing pattern printed on it.

This place is remote, about five kilometers away from Yinyue Town. If it weren't for the footprints remaining along the sandy surface, Lin Xiang would have difficulty finding this temporary camp in Ferdinand.

Hiding his body in the thick grass, the cold and thick gun barrel slowly stretched out from the cracks of the rocks, and carefully observing the black figures wandering back and forth in the middle of the tent in the distance, Lin Xiang finally selected the most confident target of attack and slowly incorporated the head of the living person who was unconsciously shrouded by death into the black scope hole.

There were twelve soldiers in the camp. They all had to die.

Yesterday morning, a mortar shell shot into the refugee camp from the west, killing four people on the spot.

The opponent's purpose is very obvious. They can easily kill all the refugees in the entire camp with the advantage of weapons. But they don't do so. They only need to cause panic among the refugees and the Yinyue Town people. Maybe it's a sniper warhead, or a long-range shell. They have bits and no fixed targets. Kill one and count the other, and will never give you the chance to fight head-on.

Locke, who had been dealing with Ferdinand for a long time, pointed out incisively that this is actually the old method of the Aresandro family. While they are firmly guarding their own territory, they will constantly send small groups of elite troops to infiltrate and harass. They do not seek to cause any casualties, but simply a psychological tactic. In addition to conventional attacks, they will also use various methods, including poison gas. Once the defender collapses mentally or cannot bear the torture, he will take the initiative to leave the defense facilities to fight, and he will immediately fall into the encirclement set by the other party and the whole person will be killed.

Sosbia's response is to harass the harassment, and the troops in various regions conduct interchange rotation and rest. At the same time, it is necessary to minimize the chance of firefighting between the two sides. It is absolutely forbidden to provoke friction when unnecessary.

These methods are not applicable to Yinyue Town. Lin Xiang has only one countermeasure - kill me and return it ten times.

"Bang--"

The dull gunfire sound spread far in the faint mist. Through the scope, you can see that the locked target's head exploded like a ripe watermelon, and the scattered slurry splashed everywhere.

Lin Xiang did not fire. The direction of the bullets was from another rock about fifty to his left. Judging from the location of the hidden person, it should be Yang Hua.

Due to the adequate food, the men in Yinyue Town are very strong. They are willing to fight, but they are not considered excellent soldiers. Even Yang Hua, who has just mutated into a parasite, is also a young novice in this regard.

With Yang Hua and twenty town residents, Lin Xiang selected the newly built Ferdinand camp. The town was hosted by Wang Biao. His strength plus the rest of the people, as well as reinforcements sent by Sosbia, were enough to maintain defense.
