Bright Sword: This unit is really ruthless

"It's my duty, Lao Li," Zhang Ling said, "We are brothers!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

Suddenly, Li Yunlong's face changed and he pushed Zhang Ling away. "Be careful!"

"Swoosh!" A cold arrow shot out from the darkness and hit Zhang Ling's shoulder.

"Ah!" Zhang Ling screamed and fell to the ground.

"Ling boy!" Li Yunlong's eyes were bloodshot. He raised his revolver and fired wildly in the direction where the arrow came from.

A dark shadow rushed out from the woods, holding a samurai sword in his hand, and pounced towards Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong was seriously injured and unable to move, so he couldn't dodge at all. Just as the samurai sword was about to hit his head, a figure suddenly appeared and blocked Li Yunlong's way.

"Puff!" The samurai sword pierced the figure's chest and blood gushed out.

"Ruoyun!" Zhang Ling and Li Yunlong exclaimed at the same time.

Liu Ruoyun turned around slowly, her face as pale as paper, but with a hint of a smile on her lips. "Brother Ling... I... I said... I will always... stay with you..."

After saying that, she fell weakly into Zhang Ling's arms.

Zhang Ling hugged Liu Ruoyun tightly, tears blurring his eyes. "Ruoyun! Ruoyun!"

Li Yunlong's eyes also turned red. He raised his revolver and pointed it at the shadow. "Damn it, I want you to pay for Ruoyun's life!"

The shadow sneered, turned around and disappeared into the woods.

Zhang Ling hugged Liu Ruoyun, his heart aching. He knew that Liu Ruoyun died to save him. He held Liu Ruoyun's hand tightly, feeling her gradually cold body temperature, his heart filled with regret and self-blame.

If he hadn't asked about the future, if he hadn't let Liu Ruoyun come here, perhaps none of this would have happened...

"Ruoyun..." Zhang Ling murmured in a low voice, tears dripping on Liu Ruoyun's face.

At this time, faint gunshots were heard in the distance.

Li Yunlong wiped away his tears and said to Zhang Ling: "Ling boy, the Japanese reinforcements are coming soon, we have to leave here quickly!"

Zhang Ling raised his head, his eyes filled with hatred. "Old Li, I can't leave! I want to avenge Ruoyun!"

Li Yunlong sighed. He knew that Zhang Ling was in a very unstable mood, but he did not stop him. "Okay! Let's avenge Ruoyun together!"

The two of them supported each other and walked towards the direction where the gunshots came from. Their figures gradually disappeared in the dawn light.

At this moment, on a hillside not far from them, a figure in a black cloak was silently watching them, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"Zhang Ling..." the figure murmured in a low voice, "The game... has just begun..."

The flames of the explosion lit up half the sky, deafening noises followed one after another, and the strong smell of gunpowder filled the air, making it almost impossible to breathe. The base of the independent regiment was now a sea of ​​fire.

Li Yunlong wiped the blood off his face and roared, "Damn it! The Japanese are trying to kill me! Hold on! Even if I die, I'll take a few people with me!"

The soldiers were all blood-thirsty and they hardly stopped firing their guns. The bullet shells fell to the ground with a clink and soon piled up into a small hill.

However, the enemy's offensive was too fierce. They were numerous and had strong firepower. The soldiers of the independent regiment gradually lost their strength and their defense line was compressed step by step.

At this critical moment, a figure suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

"Brother Ling!" Liu Ruoyun shouted anxiously.

Zhang Ling turned around suddenly and was shocked to see Liu Ruoyun. "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to stay in a safe place?"

Liu Ruoyun did not answer, but took out a black metal box from her arms and handed it to Zhang Ling. "This is what I brought from the future, maybe it can help you."

Zhang Ling took the box puzzled, opened it and saw a strangely shaped bomb inside.

"What is this?" Zhang Ling asked.

"Antimatter annihilation bomb," Liu Ruoyun explained, "It's powerful enough to destroy everything within a one-kilometer radius."

Zhang Ling took a deep breath. He knew the power of antimatter. If this bomb exploded, the consequences would be disastrous.

"This is too dangerous," Zhang Ling said, "Don't use it unless it's absolutely necessary."

"I know," Liu Ruoyun nodded, "but now it's a last resort."

The Japs' offensive became more and more fierce, and the independent regiment's defense line was about to collapse.

"Okay!" Zhang Ling gritted his teeth and decided to go all out.

He took the bomb, set the explosion time, and then shouted to Li Yunlong: "Old Li! Cover me!"

Without saying a word, Li Yunlong led the remaining soldiers in a final charge against the Japanese, attracting their firepower.

Zhang Ling took the opportunity to sneak into the Japanese position and placed the bomb in the Japanese headquarters.

After doing all this, he quickly evacuated.

"boom--"

With a deafening roar, the Japanese command center disappeared in an instant, and everything around it was razed to the ground.

The Japanese offensive collapsed immediately, and the remaining Japanese fled.

The soldiers of the independent regiment cheered and rejoiced. The joy of surviving the disaster made them forget their pain and fatigue.

Zhang Ling and Li Yunlong hugged each other tightly.

"Old Zhang, you are really a lunatic!" Li Yunlong laughed, "But I like it!"

Zhang Ling also laughed. He knew that without Liu Ruoyun's help, they would be in great danger this time.

However, at this moment, something changed suddenly.

A black shadow suddenly dropped from the sky, carrying a fierce murderous aura, and rushed towards Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling's heart was filled with alarm and he dodged instinctively.

"boom!"

The black shadow hit a big tree next to Zhang Ling with one palm, and the tree broke.

Zhang Ling looked carefully and found that the person who attacked him was a man in black tights.

The man was tall, with a stern face and cold murderous intent in his eyes.

"Who are you?" Zhang Ling asked in a deep voice.

"The one who takes your life." The man said coldly.

Before he could finish his words, the man launched another attack, and every move was deadly.

Zhang Ling did not dare to be careless and fought with all his strength.

The two of them went back and forth, fighting inextricably.

Zhang Ling discovered that the man was so powerful that he had almost no power to fight back.

"Brother Ling!" Liu Ruoyun shouted anxiously.

She wanted to go forward to help, but was stopped by Li Yunlong.

"You stay here, I'll go help Lao Zhang!" Li Yunlong said.

After saying that, he rushed forward with a big knife in hand.

However, the man's strength was far beyond Li Yunlong's imagination.

Before Li Yunlong's sword fell, it was knocked away by the man's palm.

"You overestimate your abilities." The man snorted coldly and slapped Li Yunlong on the chest.

"Old Li!" Zhang Ling shouted, rushed forward desperately, and stood in front of Li Yunlong.

"boom!"

The man hit Zhang Ling hard on the chest with his palm.

Zhang Ling spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards.

"Brother Ling!" Liu Ruoyun exclaimed, rushed over and supported Zhang Ling.

"Cough cough..." Zhang Ling opened his eyes with difficulty, and when he saw Liu Ruoyun's anxious expression, his heart warmed.

"I'm fine..." he said weakly.

"Brother Ling, how are you?" Liu Ruoyun burst into tears.

"Don't cry..." Zhang Ling gently wiped away Liu Ruoyun's tears, "I will be fine..."

The man looked at the scene coldly, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"It seems that your relationship is very special." He said, "Then let me take you on your journey together!"

After saying that, he raised his palm, ready to give Zhang Ling a fatal blow.

Just then, a voice suddenly sounded.

"stop!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw an old man in white clothes slowly walking towards them.

The old man has white hair and a youthful face, and he looks like an immortal, giving people a feeling of being unfathomable.

"Who are you?" the man asked warily.

"I'm Tianjizi." The old man said calmly.

"Tianjizi?" The man's face changed slightly. "Are you the legendary prophet?"

"It's me." Tianjizi nodded, "You can't kill him."

"Why?" the man asked puzzledly.

"Because he...is the man of destiny." Tianjizi said meaningfully.

The flames of the explosion lit up half the sky red, and deafening noises came one after another, hitting Liu Ruoyun's eardrums. She bit her lower lip tightly, and her slender fingers almost pinched into her flesh. Zhang Ling's back rushing down the hillside lingered in her mind, and an inexplicable fear gripped her heart tightly.

She knew what a brutal battle Zhang Ling would face. The future was like a huge whirlpool, ruthlessly dragging her and Zhang Ling into it.

"Brother Ling..." Liu Ruoyun whispered, tears silently sliding down her cheeks. She wanted to rush down and fight side by side with him, even if she died, she wanted to die together. But she couldn't, she had a more important mission, she had to protect him and change his fate!

Time passed by minute by minute, and every second seemed as long as a century. Liu Ruoyun waited anxiously, waiting for the arrival of dawn, waiting for news from Zhang Ling.

Finally, the sky began to turn pale. The battlefield filled with smoke gradually became clearer. The independent regiment's base had been razed to the ground, with ruins and soldiers' bodies everywhere.

Liu Ruoyun's heart sank to the bottom. She stumbled down the hillside, looking for Zhang Ling in the ruins.

"Brother Ling! Brother Ling, where are you?" Her voice was hoarse and filled with desperate cries.

"Cough cough..."

A faint voice came from beneath the rubble.

Liu Ruoyun was delighted and rushed over, moving the bricks and wooden beams on top with her bare hands.

Zhang Ling was lying under the rubble, covered in blood and dying.

"Brother Ling!" Liu Ruoyun threw herself on Zhang Ling, tears streaming down her face. "How are you? Are you okay?"

Zhang Ling opened his eyes weakly, and when he saw Liu Ruoyun, a bitter smile appeared on his lips. "I... I'm fine..."

"Stop talking, I'll take you to see a doctor right now!" Liu Ruoyun helped Zhang Ling up and staggered towards the back.

Along the way, wounded soldiers were constantly being carried down, with groans and cries coming one after another. The cruelty of war was fully demonstrated at this moment.

Liu Ruoyun gritted her teeth, resisted the pain in her heart, and walked forward step by step. She knew that she couldn't fall down, she had to support Zhang Ling and support this world that was about to break apart.

Finally, they found a medical team that was still working, and the doctor simply treated Zhang Ling's wound. The bullet penetrated his left shoulder, but fortunately it did not injure his vital parts.

"He's lost too much blood and needs a blood transfusion." The doctor said, "Who among you has type O blood?"

The soldiers around looked at each other and no one spoke.

"I have type O blood." Liu Ruoyun said without hesitation.

The doctor was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Okay, follow me."

During the blood transfusion, Liu Ruoyun held Zhang Ling's hand tightly, feeling his weak breathing and pulse.
