The sun set in the west.
This battle did not last long. From the beginning to the end, it was less than two hours. So much so that the setting sun did not even completely disappear.
The afterglow was scattered on the blood-stained streets.
Some places had become ruins. Although most people were lucky enough to escape, the supplies left in the houses were burned. From time to time, there were stifling sounds of sobbing. People with faces full of dust collected the bodies of the dead. Some relatives were crying by the side, and some people who lost the whereabouts of their loved ones came to identify the bodies.
When they did not find them, they were secretly relieved.
But when they found the bodies, it was a different appearance.
…
There was a cry in an alley.
It was a young man, wearing a black beetle armor. This was a warrior from Order. The originally sturdy beetle armor was now tattered. Even the shoulder had been torn, which caused the other party to suffer some injuries. Drops of blood slid to the ground.
The young warrior, his body trembled a little. He did not care about the injury on his shoulder. Instead, he trembled and picked up the body of a teenager about his age.
It was a teenager with a face full of blood. A piece of his right ear was missing. This was the only way to identify him.
Scythe was no longer breathing. The fatal wound was on his chest. He suffered the impact of the demon. Even if he had a beetle armor, his internal organs were broken.
A low whimper was heard.
Lu Wei trembled as he held Scythe's body. His eyes were already blank. The expression on his face was full of disbelief and pain. He let out a cry of sorrow. Even his voice became hoarse. "We agreed to go home together … Why?"
"Just a little bit more and I would have won. Why?"
Tears fell drop by drop. Lu Wei cried like a child.
The teenager in front of him vowed to avenge his parents. He was the most ferocious in every battle. He even signed up for the experiment and dreamed of becoming a professional. His life was forever fixed at this time.
Perhaps he did not expect that the demon had such a strong explosive power. Perhaps he was a little greedy. He once said that he wanted to kill more enemies and then exchange for a sharper weapon. In some people's eyes, this might be Scythe's own fault. An ordinary person dared to chase after the demon, even if the other party was a seriously injured demon.
But Lu Wei did not think so.
They had come from the bottom to where they were today. They knew that if they wanted to live, they had to seize every rare opportunity. A seriously injured devil, for Sickle, was undoubtedly a ticket to a better life.
If he could kill the other party, his life would definitely improve.
However …
This time, the Goddess of Luck did not favor this young man.
Lu Wei's crying appearance was like a child who had lost his toy.
In fact, he had never cried like this since his parents passed away. Facing the apocalypse, Lu Wei knew that he had to be stronger.
Almost overnight, the boy grew up.
He was not very brave. In fact, he was a little timid.
But as long as his sister was alive, he would not give up hope, because his sister was his hope.
As an older brother, he had to be stronger.
It was because of this belief that Lu Wei slowly turned from a young man into a warrior. He was familiar with fighting and was used to fighting. Along the way, the creatures that died in his hands were half-monkey people, zombies, little demons, and even some real humans.
But even so, when he saw Scythe die in front of him, Lu Wei looked so helpless and sad. This was his best friend. In the end of the world, they had supported each other to reach this day. If his sister was his hope, then Scythe was each other's crutch. They had to support each other to get through all the dangers and mountains along the way.
Because of each other's existence, they had a glimmer of hope and optimism for life in their difficult lives.
But just now, his crutch was broken.
Lu Wei lost his way. He was now like a lost traveler who had lost his exploration crutch. The following road was difficult.
Some complicated thoughts wandered in Lu Wei's mind. He was trying to recall everything that Scythe had brought him before his death.
"I know there are some risks, but living in this environment, no matter what you do, there is danger …"
"I'm not afraid of death. I'm just afraid that I can't kill more monsters for my parents."
"I haven't drunk your wedding wine yet. I can't die so early!"
"I tell you, when I have status, I'm going to find two, no! Finding three wives won't be a problem! "
Lu Wei was silent.
After the sadness, he fell to the ground. His eyes were a little dull. No one knew what he was thinking.
"You're too weak."
Lu Wei suddenly muttered to himself, as if recalling every word that Scythe said. He suddenly said, "Because I'm too weak. I'm so weak that I can't protect the important people around me. Scythe is like this. If it were my sister, perhaps the result would be the same."
In such a dangerous situation, bravery did not matter. Relying on the consciousness of an ordinary person, by the time Lu Wei reacted, the demon had already knocked Scythe away. He did not even have a chance to save her.
In the end, he could only watch as Scythe breathed her last in his arms.
"If this continues …"
Lu Wei stretched out his hand and looked at his slender arm. He was a little annoyed, "If this continues, will I be like this one day? I'm too weak. I don't even have the qualifications to protect myself, let alone protect my sister. If I were a professional, Scythe wouldn't even die. "
His eyes were filled with endless pain and regret. He hugged the body in his arms tightly and let out an angry roar.
"I've already signed up. There's no problem with my physique and identity. The lord said that my name is in the next batch of names."
At this time, Lu Wei suddenly remembered a very important sentence. In this case, he seemed to have made a very important decision. He struggled to pick up Scythe's body, and then, step by step, walked toward the gathering point.
He decided.
This was a dangerous world. The appearance of the demon made him see that disaster was around him. He could not always be so lucky, so he needed to be prepared in advance.
Only with strength could he better protect himself, protect his important people, or beliefs.
Lu Wei did not want to see himself powerless again, so he decided to sign up for the experiment. Only then would he have the chance to become a powerful professional.
This was not suicide.
He just wanted to become stronger …
