. . .

Meanwhile, half a kilometer away...

"Sophia, keep running!"

"Don't stop!"

Accompanied by intense gasps, a man and a woman dressed in animal fur coats, like mountain savages, were running desperately on the snow.

And not far behind the two, a group of Holy Trinity soldiers holding guns and wearing veils were chasing after them.

"Hurry up! Don't let them get away!"

The two groups, one in front and one behind, neither slowed down.

However, such a balance was finally broken by a crisp gunshot.

There was only a "bang", and the bullet that struck from behind directly hit the calf of the man who fell behind, knocking him down!

The companion suddenly fell to the ground, and the woman who was running ahead couldn't help but pause and look back.

Seeing the enemy who was getting closer and the companion who fell to the ground, the red-haired woman, without any hesitation, immediately took off the longbow from her back, drew the bow and set an arrow, and launched a counterattack at the enemy who was chasing after her!

shhhhh!

The sharp black arrow turned into two bolts of lightning in the air, shooting and killing the two enemies in the front in an instant.

However, when she touched the quiver behind her again, she found nothing!

At this time, the remaining Holy Trinity soldiers had come to the fallen man and surrounded him.

A small leader at the head stepped on the man's shot calf and cursed viciously:

"Fuck, let you escape!"

With a muffled groan, the man resisted the pain, stretched out his hand and waved at the red-haired woman, and shouted loudly:

"Sophia, run away, leave me alone!"

Hearing this, the red-haired woman seemed to have lost her ability to think, and just stood there blankly, looking at the Holy Trinity soldiers holding guns in a little surprise.

Seeing the muzzle of the gun slowly aimed at the man's head, her eyes were filled with unbearable and despair, as if she had foreseen the next scene.

And at this moment, the mutation suddenly occurred!

Puff puff!

Accompanied by a few subtle gunshots, the three Holy Trinity soldiers fell down like marionettes that had lost control.

Just when the red-haired woman was in a daze, two figures, one blue and one red, jumped down from the hillside on one side like silent ghosts.

These two figures are exactly Lu Qi and Laura who arrived in time!

Looking at the two people who appeared suddenly, their eyes paused for a moment on the guns in each other's hands, and the red-haired woman immediately asked:

"Who are you?"

Facing the red-haired woman's vigilant eyes, Lu Qi responded casually:

"We're the good guys who just saved your life..."

"you..."

Before the red-haired woman could continue to ask questions, the man lying on the ground interrupted her:

"Sophia, help me!"

Hearing this, the red-haired woman immediately ran to the side of the injured man and helped him up.

Letting Laura and the two explain, Lu Qi came to the corpses of several Holy Trinity soldiers and reached out to feel for them.

As soon as he took out a walkie-talkie from the enemy's body, the walkie-talkie suddenly sounded a "rustling" electric noise.

Immediately afterwards, a hoarse male voice sounded:

"All teams report immediately, what's the current situation? Over."

Hearing this, Lu Qi wanted to ignore it at first, but he glanced at the fallen Holy Trinity soldier and couldn't help thinking of a plan.

I saw him covering his mouth, creating a feeling of wearing a face scarf, and then approached the walkie-talkie and said in a vague voice:

"They escaped into the forest, we're searching, over."

Perhaps it was because the voice hadn't changed much, or maybe it was because the answer didn't have too many flaws, the Holy Trinity enemy on the other side of the walkie-talkie, without doubting him, continued:

"It's best to catch the alive and bring them back to prison. Constantine will interrogate these remnants..."

"receive."

After hanging up the walkie-talkie, Lu Qi's eyes were fixed, and he couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

In the short communication with the enemy, he still obtained a lot of information:

First, Constantine, the boss of the Holy Trinity, came to Siberia himself; second, the Holy Trinity has already set up camp in this area, and has set up a prison; third, the two men in animal skin coats Men and women should be the people living in the local area, and they are also the "remnants" of the Holy Trinity

For unknown reasons, Holy Trinity intends to obtain information about Kit City from these survivors.

So he sent his men to search the area and capture the survivors alive.

Although I have played the game of Rise of the Tomb Raider before, I still have a little impression of keywords such as Holy Trinity, Prophet, and Divine Source.However, he had almost forgotten the specific plot.

The sporadic memories collected from the depths of my mind are just some key characters and the general content of the plot.

In short, the Holy Trinity organization headed by Constantine wants to find the source of immortality, and Laura wants to stop them.

And the descendants of the prophet's believers, that is, these remnants, are likely to know the specific location of the "lost city of Kit".

The three forces gathered in Siberia, and a change of situation is just around the corner!

After saving the two survivors of the Prophet, an idea popped up in Lu Qi's mind.

As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend.

With the common enemy of the Holy Trinity, their alliance with the remnants of the prophets had a natural basis.

Thinking of this, Lu Qi couldn't help raising his head, looking at the two people in animal skin coats, his eyes flashed...

Chapter 342 The Remnant of the Prophet, the Foundation of the Alliance

Perhaps it was the great favor of saving the lives of the two people just now, or it was Laura who took out the medical tools to help the man deal with the wound, which made the two of them let go of their guard and reported their names and backgrounds on their own initiative.

The hot-tempered red-haired woman is called Sophia; the middle-aged man who was shot by Holy Trinity is her uncle, Joseph.

Both are locals living in the area.

"My name is Laura, and he is Lu Qi..."

Laura had just reported her family background, and Lu Qi, who had initially formed a plan in his mind, took a step forward, took the conversation and said:

"Why are you here, still conflicting with Holy Trinity?"

"Holy Trinity? Is that the name of those guys?"

Seeing Lu Qi nodded, Joseph, supported by Sophia, immediately asked:

"What do you know about these people?"

"Not much, I just know that this is a huge organization with inexhaustible resources. They use all means to achieve their goals. And they came here this time to find something in an ancient ruin. And we are here , to prevent them from succeeding!"

"By the way, have you heard of the lost city of Kit?"

Hearing this, Sophia and Joseph looked at each other and exchanged eyes, and finally Joseph said:

"Actually, the thing is like this..."

Under Joseph's narration, Lu Qi and Laura learned that Holy Trinity had arrived in Siberia two days ago.

These masked guys with guns in their hands quickly occupied a large abandoned cold war facility as a base, and sent a large number of soldiers around to arrest all the locals they saw.

And the tribal leader of their local people was captured by the Holy Trinity in an encounter.

In order to rescue the captured tribal leader, they organized a group of troops and launched an attack on the Cold War facility.

Unexpectedly, the survivor tribes who have lived in this land for thousands of years have never seen such advanced weapons as firearms.

The number of people is outnumbered, coupled with the disparity in weapons, the opponent is holding guns, they are holding bows and arrows, it is completely hitting a stone with an egg.

In the end, not only were the captured leaders of the survivors not rescued, they were also killed by Holy Trinity and captured a group of people.

The rest of them could only take advantage of the darkness and flee in haste.

Sophia and Joseph are among the few who managed to escape...

Recalling the scene at that time, both Joseph and Sophia couldn't help being afraid for a while.

"If it weren't for your help, we might have been killed too. Please let us express our sincerest thanks to the two of you..."

After finishing speaking, Joseph opened his hands, put them on his chest, bowed slightly to Lu Qi and Laura, and gave a special thank you gift.

Sophia beside her also followed suit.

Seeing the actions of the two, Laura's eyes lit up, as if thinking of something, she couldn't help poking Lu Qi beside her with her elbow, and reminded in a low voice:

"This seems to be a common gift of thanks in the Byzantine Empire. We have to bend down to accept it, otherwise we will be regarded as disrespectful by the other party."

Hearing this, Lu Qi couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth, and replied helplessly, "Oh."

What the hell, how can there be such a courtesy to accept thanks from others...

Although he thought so in his heart, he still imitated Laura's appearance, while bending slightly, he did not forget to say:

"You're welcome, we all have a common enemy, and it's good for both of us to help each other. Do you mean?"

Hearing this meaningful hint, Joseph couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, then nodded sympathetically, "Yes, you are right."

Seeing Lu Qi and Joseph playing charades, Laura couldn't help but look at Sophia in front of her and asked:

"Then what are you going to do next?"

"We have to return to the village as soon as possible, report the situation of the facility to others, and then find a way to deal with these damn outsiders..."

Hearing this, Laura looked at Joseph's bandaged calf, and couldn't help saying:

"Your injury needs to be recuperated, and you can't move around casually. Along the way, it's hard to guarantee that you won't encounter the search team from Holy Trinity..."

"Why don't we take you back and spend the night there, what do you think?"

Laura is not stupid, but very smart.

Lu Qi talked about this, if she still can't hear it, then it's not Lara Croft!

Obviously, Lu Qi wants to form an alliance with these locals to deal with Holy Trinity together.

The basis for the alliance has been established.

The two parties have also initially established a relationship of trust. Next, it is time to further deepen the relationship...

Regarding Laura's proposal, Joseph and Sophia thought about it, and then readily accepted it.

They are not fools either, they know very well that there must be a reason why Lu Qi and Laura extended a helping hand to themselves.

Of course, Lu Qi and Laura did not hide their intention...

With the current state and equipment of the two, once they meet any Holy Trinity team, there is only one result, that is, they will be arrested and returned to Holy Trinity's prison.

With the escort of Lu and Qi, it is possible to return to the village safely.

As for whether the two had a hostile relationship with Holy Trinity, Joseph had also considered this issue.

However, he wasn't too worried.

When they returned to their own territory, even if their intentions were not pure, they still had enough people to control them.

In this way, the four people belonging to the two forces formed a somewhat special team and disappeared into the forest...

. . .

The moon and stars were sparse, and the howling wind and snow had gradually stopped.

With two locals who were familiar with the terrain leading the way, and Lu Qi who turned on Eagle Vision from time to time, the four of them bypassed several search teams of Holy Trinity all the way, and returned to the village where the tribe was located without any danger.

The village is located in a valley, and its location is relatively hidden. It is difficult to find the entrance unless someone leads the way.

This may also be the reason why Holy Trinity has not been found here...

"Joseph!"
