Chapter 35: Frontline, Heartbeat
Rosen summoned a poisonous vine and ordered it to be on guard and to warn strangers as soon as possible if it spotted them.
Then he began to repeatedly brush up his proficiency in Inner Vision and Mind Hammer.
As for heating and prayer, since they are passive skills and are always in the on state, the proficiency will increase slowly but continuously, so he doesn't need to worry about them.
As dawn approached, Rosen, who was half asleep and half awake, was awakened by a poisonous vine.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that Diana had also woken up.
When their eyes met, they were stunned at first, and then they laughed silently. A different feeling arose in their hearts.
"Enemy?" Diana asked in a low voice.
"I don't know." Rosen shook his head and said, "I'll go capture a prisoner and ask him."
"Let's go together."
With their strength and their deliberate actions, they were unaware when they quietly approached those people.
After seeing their military uniforms clearly, Rosen first made a calm gesture to Diana, and then spoke.
With the special identity and relevant documents that Steve prepared for Rosen, it was not difficult to gain the recognition of these English soldiers.
When they saw the German soldiers killed by Rosen, they regarded him as one of their own and readily answered some questions about the situation at the front.
"Tom, can we follow you to the front line?" Rosen said to the leading sergeant.
The latter was a young man with brown curly hair and a few freckles on his face.
He would steal a glance at Diana from time to time, but he tried to act serious, which made Rosen want to laugh.
"Of course, of course." Tom nodded, then said with a bitter face: "But we are on patrol now, and it will take at least an hour before we can go back."
"We also want to take a look at your defense line. Do you mind if we join you on patrol?" Rosen said with a smile.
"No problem." Tom glanced at Diana and said with a blushing face, "We welcome you."
Rosen and Diana immediately joined the team with their horses.
Seeing that the two of them had horses but chose not to ride them but to walk with them, Tom and the others felt greatly respected and their liking for Rosen and Diana increased greatly.
In fact, Rosen didn't want to become a sniper's target because he was riding a horse, and Diana wanted to keep in line with him, so this beautiful misunderstanding happened.
The stalemate between the Allies and the Central Powers had been going on for a long time, and the trench warfare had lasted for a long time. During this period, fighting for power was inevitable, and the positions became jagged.
In order to avoid enemy sneak attacks, several teams of soldiers patrol the front line regularly.
Patrols from both sides would occasionally meet, and then a small-scale fight would break out, with the cumulative number of casualties already being quite high.
I don’t know if it was because of Diana in the team that they were particularly blessed by the goddess of luck. Tom and his team did not encounter the German patrol during this patrol. They completed their mission safely and returned to the front line.
We passed through a muddy field on the road and saw many Allied soldiers. Some of their cars were stuck in the mud, while others had just been bombarded and were lying on the ground groaning in pain after being injured.
Of course, there were also many civilians who fled to distant places with their wives, children and the elderly, with frustration and even despair on their faces. Their sad cries could still be heard from a distance.
"The trench is just ahead." Tom said as he walked ahead.
“Swoosh, boom!”
A shell whizzed in and hit a red pine tree that was so big that it took two or three people to hug it.
Amid the deafening explosion, wood was shattered and the entire tree was blown to pieces, leaving only half of the crooked stump burning in flames.
Rosen's ears were buzzing and he felt unprecedented shock and fear in his heart.
Originally, he thought that he could dominate the world with his own strength, but now he realized that he had thought too much.
When the shells just fell, he felt an extremely strong sense of danger.
If Diana beside him hadn't used her shield to block several flying shrapnel, he would definitely not have been able to continue moving forward safely.
I still have to become stronger. Rosen made up his mind.
After entering a devastated ruin, Rosen and Diana followed Tom and others into the Allied trenches.
"This is the front line." Tom walked in the narrow trench, pointing at the soldiers holding their guns and ready to fight at any time, and said, "We guard here every day, but we don't know when it will end."
"Where are the German troops?" Diana asked.
"A few hundred yards from this no-man's-land," Tom answered.
Maybe it was because he was back on the battlefield, he was different now. At least he didn't blush easily when talking to Diana.
"Swoosh, boom."
Amidst the shrieking sound, a shell fell, blowing up a large piece of dirt and minced meat.
Rosen subconsciously protected Diana and ended up getting humiliated.
His heartbeat quickened as he smelled the fragrance emanating from Diana in his arms.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Diana suddenly asked.
"No."
"But why did your heartbeat suddenly speed up?" Diana asked curiously.
"Because I saw a girl I liked, my heart was beating fast." Rosen said casually, pointing to the front and said, "Let's go."
Diana took two steps forward before she suddenly understood the meaning of Rosen's words, and an unprecedented feeling suddenly surged in her heart.
At this moment, she seemed to feel her heartbeat quicken.
"Help us, they have taken everything from us, our livestock, our food, and our houses..."
A woman holding a child on the side of the road saw Diana and suddenly cried out for help: "Those who failed to escape were captured and made slaves."
"Where did it happen?" Diana asked.
"Feld, it's at the other end of the no-man's land." The woman pointed to the other end of the trench.
"Time to go." Tom shouted from the front.
"We have to help these people." Diana said, then looked at Rosen and said, "They have no shelter, no food, and the villagers are enslaved. We shouldn't just sit there and do nothing. Rosen, you will support me, right?"
"How can we help?" Before Rosen could speak, Tom came over and said, "This is a no-man's land, which means no living person can get through. We have been stationed here for a year, and too many people have died, but we haven't moved the front line forward even a foot."
Pointing to the front, Tom gritted his teeth and said, "Because there is a group of German bastards on the other side aiming machine guns at every inch of land here. Anyone who wants to break into the no-man's land will be killed by them. No one can pass through this war zone."
"So you're just going to watch them die without helping?" Diana looked at Tom disappointedly and said, "Then what's the point of you staying here to fight?"
