Ch 42: Again
“Mo!”
Mos agreed and nodded, then controlled the flames to float towards the rubble pile!
The firelight illuminated everything along the way, clearly showing the situation on the rubble pile!
The accumulated rubble was mixed with a large amount of mud, making it look very solid!
Connecting to the upper sewer was a piece of unbroken stone brick ground!
“Looks like there’s no problem…”
Sun Lei looked at the big hole above and said to Mos with a smile.
Mos nodded, feeling very happy in his heart!
That’s great, no need to look for a way up, we can go straight up!
Seeing that Mos agreed, Sun Lei ran towards the rubble pile!
Crackling…
Stepping on the rubble, Sun Lei watched a few small stones roll down from above, and cautiously probed a few times.
“Well, I can go up!”
Sun Lei probed the firmness of the rubble pile a few times and nodded firmly.
He carefully looked at the situation above, and then envisioned the route in his mind!
After a while, Sun Lei slowly opened his eyes.
He moved his arms, then bent down and began to climb up!
The slope of the rubble pile was relatively steep, but this didn’t stump Sun Lei!
His arms were tightly attached to the stone wall, using the force of the rebound to constantly climb upwards!
Soon, Sun Lei successfully climbed to the stone slab above!
Here, the slope became much gentler, and he could stand up and walk up.
Sun Lei stood up and gently shook his arms a few times, exhaled a few breaths of air to relax, tidied up his equipment, and continued to walk upwards.
…………………………
Crack… crack…
Sun Lei walked in the sewer full of rubble powder, and the sound of the rubble being trampled and rubbed with each step would enter his ears.
At this time, he had successfully arrived at the uppermost sewer, which was also where he was during the previous battle!
In a short while, Sun Lei had already seen many traces of their previous battles.
He looked at the bodies of Goblin Cavalry and City Guard Team members that appeared from time to time along the way, and his heart became more and more vigilant!
Sun Lei remembered that this place was where they passed by when they retreated!
In other words, if Sun Lei wanted to find the bodies of Luo Wei and Huo Lian, then he would likely encounter Demonic Creatures!
Because he might encounter some Demonic Creatures again along the way, Sun Lei was always very vigilantly looking at the surrounding situation.
Before long, Sun Lei and Mos saw a small earth slope piled with a large amount of rubble.
Sun Lei quickly quickened his pace and came to the small earth slope to look upwards.
He saw the cold moonlight spilling from the hole above, setting off a gray scene below.
Sun Lei looked around, and there were many dead bodies of Goblin Cavalry in the collapsed rubble.
He knew that this was where Huo Lian had chosen to detonate before!
“It seems, we are getting closer and closer…”
Sun Lei looked up at the moonlight above and said softly.
“Mo…”
Mos did not answer Sun Lei, but just made an inexplicable cry, staring blankly at the starry sky and moonlight outside the hole.
Since rebirth, it was the first time Mos had seen the sky!
The stars at night were so beautiful that she couldn’t bear to look away.
“…Let’s keep going.”
Sun Lei withdrew his gaze, turned his head slightly and said to Mos.
He looked at Mos, who was still looking up at the sky, couldn’t help but smile slightly, and stretched out his hand to touch Mos’s head.
Pa!
“Mo!” (Don’t touch me! Pervert!)
Mos slapped away Sun Lei’s outstretched hand again, looking at him with a disgusted expression.
“Hahaha… okay, sorry…”
Sun Lei scratched his head awkwardly, then bypassed the small earth slope and continued to walk in the direction they had fled before.
“Mo…”
Mos reluctantly glanced at the moonlight above again, but did not object to Sun Lei’s decision.
After all, she still needed to help Sun Lei find his teammates!
However, Mos also knew in his heart that Sun Lei’s teammates were probably already dead.
Crack… crack…
Sun Lei continued to walk forward for an unknown amount of time, and didn’t know how far he had walked.
He only knew that he was getting closer and closer…
Finally, Sun Lei stopped!
Two familiar corpses appeared in front of him, Luo Wei and Huo Lian!
Sun Lei stood silently in place, looking at the two former seniors on the ground, his heart heavy!
After a long time, Sun Lei walked forward lightly and gathered the incomplete corpses that had been gnawed on.
Two identity plates belonging to the other party were gently taken off by Sun Lei and carefully put into his arms.
He continued to tidy up the clothes of the two seniors, until he picked up the chest protector that Luo Wei had dropped, he suddenly noticed the items hidden under the chest protector.
A photo!
Sun Lei picked up the photo and looked at the father and daughter photo with happy smiles on their faces by the firelight, and his heart suddenly ached!
The girl in the photo is called Luo Ya, she is 7 years old this year, and she is not Luo Wei’s biological daughter.
Luo Ya’s parents died in a Demonic Creature attack, and Luo Wei rescued her, but only saved her alone.
Luo Wei felt very guilty, because he had the strength to save the couple, but he missed the opportunity because of his hesitation and timidity…
So he adopted Luo Ya, named her when she was still in swaddling clothes, and gave her all his love.
Luo Ya didn’t know about this, and Sun Lei only found out after Luo Wei got drunk once.
At that time, Luo Wei cried very sadly and kept apologizing.
Sun Lei’s hand holding the photo suddenly clenched, constantly trembling, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
He was very sad, but in this era, he was used to seeing life and death, but he couldn’t shed tears.
“Hiss…”
Sun Lei took a deep breath, put the photo back into his arms together, and continued to tidy up the clothes of the two seniors.
……………………
“That’s it…”
Sun Lei sat on the stone, looking at Luo Wei and Huo Lian who had been arranged by him according to their body parts, and was stunned.
“Sorry… Captain Luo, Sister Huo Lian…”
Mos quietly squatted beside Sun Lei, reached out and patted the other person’s back, and called out softly.
“Mo.” (Please accept my condolences.)
“Thank you, Little Mo.”
Sun Lei turned his head, gave Mos, who was comforting him, a forced smile, and said softly.
%\u0026#¥\u0026……
Suddenly, a burst of noises in the distance attracted Sun Lei’s attention.
He quickly stopped his body movements and listened quietly.
“…”
Sun Lei closed his eyes slightly, and the sound from the distance became clearer and clearer.
“Attack… be careful… Mage…”
Clang… boom…
The sound of battle!
Sun Lei suddenly widened his eyes and stood up excitedly!
“It must be the City Guard, they have assembled their troops and come down!”
Sun Lei turned to look at Mos and said with a firm face:
“Little Mo, can you help me again?”
“Mo!” (Sure, I also want to avenge these two!)
Mos looked at Sun Lei and nodded lightly.
These three people were all kind to her, and Mos was not someone who would not repay kindness!
Then let her and Sun Lei go together to eliminate the Demonic Creatures that killed the two of them!
Seeing that Mos agreed, Sun Lei’s face suddenly smiled, but it quickly turned into firmness!
There was no Ogre’s body on the ground, which meant that the explosion did not kill it!
Then in the battle in the distance, the Demonic Creature fighting the City Guard was very likely the Ogre!
Mos skillfully climbed onto Sun Lei’s shoulders and summoned flames again to light the way for him!
“I’m leaving, Captain Luo, Sister Huo Lian…”
Sun Lei said softly and firmly to the two people on the ground, and then ran towards the place of battle.
“Wait for me, Ogre…”
