Release that Witch

823. Chapter 823, the dark clouds of Hermes

    Although there is still a little snow in the sky, it is a good weather for the northern region.

    Nail bored the barrel in his hand and occasionally used the telescope to look into the direction of the Impassable Mountains. This frequency has been decreasing as the date of the garrison has grown. Until now, he will only look at it two or three times a day. The next time is spent on keeping the firearms and chatting with my companions.

    The maintenance of the weapon is a careful activity. Every half a month or so, they can get a “oil stick” that is the size of a thumb and wrapped in hard paper. I heard that the remaining waste oil from the soap factory is used. When you need it, you have to heat it and apply it to a special double-head brush. The latter is big and small, just inserted into the barrel and the nest. In the past, cleaning tools were used in every class. Now there are more and more factories and workshops in Neverwinter City. Brushes have become an accessory for guns, almost one person.

    Of course, if there is no bonfire available, put it in your arms or in your mouth. Although First Army banned the consumption of this waste oil, soldiers would sneak a little bit of it when distributing dry food and eat it as a condiment.

    As a squad leader, he usually chooses to turn a blind eye.

    After all, the team responsible for staying in the northern region is basically a veteran, and some are even older than a 20-year-old. If you didn’t participate in the primary education popularization class, the squad leader couldn’t get him. Looking at the neighbors’ neighbors and uncles, Nail can only smile.

    After the disassembled parts are assembled in turn, the rifle becomes shiny again. He buckled a few times and confirmed that the airgun fired normally before he moved his sight back to the position.

    The fall of the autumn battle until now Nail is unforgettable. When I close my eyes, the young woman in red robes will appear in his mind. At that time he was in this bunker and witnessed her death. Even if he knew that the other enemy was the enemy, it was Church’s Pure One, but his sight of struggling in the rain still made him feel uncomfortable. If it weren’t for Iron Axe’s order and for Your Majesty’s, he would have left the army and returned to his own position, a mining site Steam engine.

    Although still in the First Army, Nail decided to move away from the machine gun group and become an observer to protect the machine gunner. Ming knows that his behavior is quite a bit of self-deception, but he has never been able to cross the level of his heart.

    After a bloody battle, the battlefield where the land was soaked with blood has not seen any clues at the moment. The barbed wire has long been taken away, leaving only ten wooden piles that have fallen to the west; the trenches are also filled with snow, if not Several bunkers are still standing, and this wilderness looks just like the surrounding earth. Apart from them, no one knows. Just a few hundred meters in front of the first row of wooden stakes, more than two thousand people were killed here.

    “The squad leader, there is no firewood in the stove. I went to the ground to move some,” said a soldier of similar age to Nail. He said that the firewood was the one used to fix the barbed wire. “Otherwise, the group that took over after the shift To blame us for not using it.”

    “But now is the duty time…”Nail shook his head. “It was not good to be seen by others.”

    “They won’t say anything,” another veteran laughed. “When it’s cold, who cares about us going to move something to warm.” It’s been a few months, and Church’s gangsters can’t even see the shadows, and they can’t find it at this time. ”

    This has been agreed by everyone.

    Nail also knew that the other person was right. At the beginning of the camp, there were still 500 people left. At the request of Iron Axe, they continued to be stationed at the foot of Cold Wind Ridge in case of Church’s dying counterattack or Evil Beast’s invasion. However, none of the envisaged enemies appeared. It is probably that the situation will not change much again. The defenders have also withdrawn more than 200 people, and the rest are only in the form of patrols. Stay in the bunker to monitor the movements of West North.

    He hesitated and finally agreed to the soldier’s application. “You are too slow to move alone. Let’s call two more together.”

    The latter whistled, “Yes, head!”

    Nail turned back and picked up the telescope and looked at the end of the snow. The sight was still white, as if it would never change.

    Just as he planned to take out the pistol and wipe it, there were two or three black spots in the field of vision, which was particularly eye-catching in the white background.

    He groaned and then shouted, “Wait!”

    The soldiers who had already reached the stairway stopped immediately, and the other people around the stove screamed and gathered together. “Is there a situation?”

    Nail wiped the lens with the felt of the neckline and looked west west again. This time, the black spots became more. He held his breath and watched it for a while before he discovered that it was actually a slowly moving figure in the snow.

    “Blow the warning ring! Someone is coming back to the ground! ”

    “wū wū wū wū ——————————” As the horn sounded over the wilderness, the entire camp suddenly boiled.

    Nail took the rifle and took the squad’s personnel to the bunker. He formed a row of guns around the bottom of the tower and placed the barrel on a sandbag covered with snowflakes. Since the trenches have been filled with snow, they can only shrink the front line and assist the heavy machine gun to defend the fire.

    “Is it a Church’s person?”Someone asked.

    “Not who they will be?”The former veteran muttered dissatisfiedly. “Cold Wind Ridge has long been abandoned by Your Majesty. Only Hermes can come from that direction. I have looked down on them.”

    “There will be no more monster-like warriors coming out. This time we don’t have Artillery Battalion support.”

    “I am afraid that I will not be able to run around in the snow.”The veteran spit, “Either don’t wear armor, or you will fall into the pit as a target.”

    “Head, distance?”

    “At least a kilometer away,” Nail looked at the suspicious target and couldn’t help but frown. “Strange, something is wrong…”

    “Where is it wrong?”

    theyNot quite like the God Punishment Army. ”

    “Is Church sending the Judgement Army to death?”Everyone has a sigh of relief. If it is just an ordinary Judgement Warrior, it is absolutely impossible to rush to them under the crossfire of the machine guns.

    “Not a Judgement Army…Not only did they not wear armor, but even a few pieces of clothes were intact,” Nail said, holding a telescope, and he was surprised. “Oh my God, how did these people come down the mountain?” They look…It’s like a group of refugees! ”

    “It’s also possible to be a God Punishment Warrior disguised as a refugee,” the veteran shrugged. “Hey, where are you going?”

    “I will let them stop!”Nail didn’t say back, “otherwise the other teams will shoot and kill them!”
