Start a core cabin
Chapter 271 Companion
When a group of people crawled out of the underground waterway, most of them were already panting from exhaustion.
In the past, the citizens of Jiaxintu would never dare to enter the underground waterway. Although Jiaxintu has a layer of granite that the orcs cannot penetrate, this does not mean that the orcs will not invade. In fact, they had been worried about encountering the orcs in the underground waterway --- fortunately, they had good luck.
"Okay, hurry up, now is not the time to rest."
Seeing his companion panting, the leading man frowned and said.
"I've made an appointment with someone who will take us to the Inquisition...but he'll only stay until dawn! If we don't hurry up, we'll be left behind!"
"Woo..."
Hearing the man's words, the others were speechless for a while, but they still stood up with gritted teeth and continued to walk forward. Since they made the decision to leave Jiaxintu, there is no turning back now, and they have no way to continue living in Jiaxintu because of the plague. Now they can only go to the trial court to have a glimmer of hope!
Soon, a group of people came to the ruins not far below Jia Xintu, and then they entered a dilapidated garage, which was completely dark at the moment, but the man who led the way had just walked in, and suddenly there was a light behind the dark garage. The flashes shone on their faces, and then, everyone saw two burly soldiers holding weapons and aiming at them!
"Are you...GEAR?"
Seeing the familiar soldier logo, the man's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly raised his hand.
"We are not spies, we just want to get out of here! Damn, do you have to kill them all?!
"........."
Facing the man's roar, the two soldiers looked at each other, then put down their guns, and at this moment, another man came out.
"Stop arguing, they are not here to arrest you, they are also passengers."
"What do you mean?"
Looking at the vagrant businessman with whom he was doing business at the beginning, the man was confused.
"You mean...they're going to the Inquisition too?"
"That's right! Well, hurry up and get in the car! I don't want to stay here too long!"
Under the urging of the vagrant merchant, the man boarded the truck with others uneasy, and then they stared at the two soldiers and quietly distanced themselves from them.
At this moment, the two soldiers also entered the compartment behind the truck and sat down, and then the vehicle started immediately and galloped away towards the distance.
“……………………”
In the roaring carriage, no one spoke. The refugees huddled together uncomfortably, while two soldiers sat outside. One of the crew-cut men took out a pendant and kept rubbing it against each other. The other man wearing a hood looked at his comrade and sighed helplessly.
"Honestly, Dom, I'm not sure that's the right choice."
"I know, but now that I have the news, I won't give up, Marcus, you understand."
While speaking, the man named Dom once again turned his gaze to the pendant in his hand, looking at the appearance of his companion, Marcus shook his head and did not speak.
In fact, these two are not ordinary GEAR soldiers, they are ace elites from Team D, who once showed their talents in the "Light Raid Operation" not long ago. Logically speaking, elite soldiers like them cannot leave Jacinto without permission.
But... Dom had to.
Because he is looking for his wife --- Maria.
Before the Beast War started, Dom and his wife raised two children, but during the Beast War, their two children died one after another. But Dom's wife, Maria, couldn't bear this blow and became insane. She always thought that her children were still alive, and always ran out to look for them aimlessly.
Finally, two years after the incident, when Dom was out on a mission, Maria just disappeared.
After that, Dom has been looking for Maria's whereabouts. He firmly believes that Maria is still alive, but he has never gotten any clues.
Until not long ago, the Tribunal appeared, captured the underground orc lair, rescued the prisoners, and some GEAR soldiers inside also returned to Jacinto to report. At that time, Dom learned from these people that there seemed to be a woman who looked very similar to the photo, and she was at the trial court.
At that time, Dom actually wanted to go to the trial court to find his wife, but because of the current task, he had to postpone the schedule. It was not until after the light quality raid was over that he found a way to go to the trial court through his contacts. The vagrant convoy, and made a deal with the other party, asking them to take him to the trial court.
In COG's view, this kind of behavior is tantamount to defecting, but Dom is determined to find his wife, and completing the light quality raid is his last confession to COG. So in desperation, his comrade-in-arms Marcus had no choice but to leave Jacinto secretly with Dom and go to the legendary court.
At this time, Dom also found a convoy of homeless people who were willing to take people to the trial court through his contacts among the homeless.
In the past, this kind of transport convoy was very dangerous, but now, because the Tribunal and the COG launched two consecutive attacks on the Orcs underground, the Orcs were beaten to the ground and dare not come out. As a result, the transportation industry has also become prosperous, and for many homeless people, taking people to the site of the court of justice is also a very cost-effective business.
These convoys were not organized by the Tribunal itself, but they are not without benefits to the homeless. Under the current circumstances, the Tribunal has shown great strength and can also bring people a sense of security. Plague is rampant in a few places, and many people choose to leave their original residences for a safer place, so these homeless convoys can also charge them for payment to transport these people to the territory of the Tribunal.
And now, it's the same.
After traveling by car for two days and two nights, everyone finally arrived at the Tribunal—the legendary place.
"This is the Tribunal..."
Looking at the five-meter-high city wall in front of him, and the jet-black steel warriors standing at the gate holding guns, as well as the decorations of skulls and war hammers carved on the city wall, the man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then coughed violently——— After two days, he could feel that his body was suffering more and more, and the disease seemed to be constantly eroding his body.
Now, there is no way out!
"let's go!!"
Gritting his teeth, the man led the others to the gate, and then they were stopped by two steel warriors.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?"
"I, we are here for help!"
Looking at the pitch-black steel warrior who was more than a head taller than him, the man hurriedly said.
"We want to live...we are infected with the plague, here can cure us, right?"
"........."
Hearing the man's words, Iron Warrior glanced at each other, then pointed to the side.
"Go in there and someone will tell you what to do."
"call……………"
Hearing Iron Warrior's answer, the man heaved a sigh of relief. He had thought about concealing the situation on the road, but the problem was that they were indeed infected with the plague, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell it at a glance. It's useless to hide it under such circumstances. If the Tribunal can really cure the plague... then he might as well take a gamble!
It now appears that he bet right.
Soon, the man brought other people to the side. When they came here, they found that it was an empty place. On the other side stood another Iron Warrior, and beside him, there was a strange of a hammerhead with a skull.
"If you want to enter, pray to it, and after praying, you can enter the city."
"……………pray???"
Although as the citizens of Jiaxintu, the man and others are already used to filling out various applications when entering the city, but this is the first time they have met to pray. They looked at each other, but they still obediently came to the strange statue, and then Start praying. At the same time, the man clenched his fists and closed his eyes.
Please, please save me, as long as I can cure my disease, let me do anything! !
"—————————!!!"
At the moment when the man prayed in his heart, he suddenly felt a tremor all over his body, and a cool breath emerged from his body. In front of the aura——disappeared directly! ?
"This this……………"
The man opened his eyes in surprise, and then he took a deep breath. In the previous words, even this kind of movement would have been enough to make him cough out his lungs, but this time, he breathed very smoothly. With the fresh air, the tired and painful body has become much more energetic!
How can this be?
Just praying, will the plague he contracted be cured? !
It's that simple? ? ?
Or is it just hallucinations?
The man looked at his companions in surprise, and the expressions of surprise on their faces told the man that this was not a hallucination caused by his own fever and confusion. The plague that plagued them was actually cured?
How on earth is this done?
"I, our illness is cured??"
The man looked at Iron Warrior in surprise, and asked tremblingly, but the latter just nodded slightly.
"Remember the Inquisition's mercy to you, and you may go."
After saying this, Iron Warrior didn't even look at them anymore, while the man and the others hurried to the side at this moment and got together.
"We... what should we do next?"
"Is our disease really cured?"
"I can't understand, why? Could it be that prayer can cure the disease? Obviously I have been praying all the time...why is it like this..."
Everyone's expressions are very complicated. Like men, they came after making up their minds. They thought that they might encounter many difficulties after coming here. They even thought that they might be rejected, or even Some sacrifices are required in exchange for the chance to heal.
It turns out...it's actually that simple?
So easy to cure?
So what about our resolve?
“……………………”
In the midst of everyone's chattering discussions, the man was silent for a moment, then he raised his head.
"I've decided, I want to go back to Jacinto."
"You want to go back???"
Seeing that their leader wanted to go back, the others were all taken aback. ,
"Why?"
"Because others are still suffering! And now that we have found a cure for the plague, I will not leave them there to die!"
As he spoke, the man clenched his fists.
"I want to rescue them, not let them stay here and be killed alive by COG!"
Then, he spoke.
