She was more concerned about the safety of Razer and Franka. The scene before her eyes was so similar to what she had experienced that year...even Jessica couldn't remain calm.

"Razer-senpai...Franka-senpai..."

"This time... please... please let me catch up..."

In the night, Jessica kept shuttling back and forth, exploring this area with all her might, praying in her heart that she could discover, change, and redeem all of this...

Chapter 192: Deep friendship between comrades, Franka's final request

The village that had been burned by the white phosphorus bomb was now only a pile of ashes. It looked like a piece of white snow, but now it exuded an indescribable unpleasant smell... That was the smell of burning white phosphorus.

"…White phosphorus bombs have a hallucinogenic effect. Everyone, wear protective masks."

Chen Qi's current body is not worried about these hallucinogenic toxins, but the physical conditions of others do not allow it at all. As the leader of Noah's team, Chen Qi must take the lead even if it is not necessary, so that everyone can obey his orders.

All members of Noah's team and the children of Ursus put on protective masks and corresponding props before officially stepping into this burning hell on earth. On the other hand, the teams from Ursus sent by the royal family also began to detect life signs in the surrounding area early, trying to find the life signs they wanted to find.

On this side, all members of Noah's team also split up and began to look for traces of Razer and Franka. On this side, Chen Qi was responsible for leading the four Ursus children to search for some information in this now destroyed village.

The village was not big, and the area that Chen Qi was in charge of was not strictly necessary. After all, there was no place in the village that could resist white phosphorus bombs. If Razer and Franka could be found here, then they would probably only bring back corpses.

Therefore, the other members of Noah's team were basically searching around the outskirts of the village. Chen Qi believed that if Razer and Franka were still alive, then the only places where the two women could hide would be these outskirts.

The burning of white phosphorus bombs can ignite everything in an instant. The high adhesion and flammability make it almost impossible for white phosphorus bombs to be extinguished except burning out. Except for those places around the villages, no matter what shelters people hide under, they will be burned beyond recognition in an instant.

Of course, Chen Qi also has many plans of his own. Lin Dong and the others need experience, and this place after the destruction of white phosphorus bombs... is the most suitable place for them to grow.

This is the embodiment of the cruelest war. If they really want to change this continent in the future, then this is everything they must be prepared to face.

In the future, perhaps they will not face white phosphorus bombs, but they will face scenes that are even more cruel than white phosphorus bombs. Although white phosphorus bombs are extremely cruel from a humanitarian point of view, in terms of casualties, the casualties this time are not something unacceptable.

White phosphorus bombs are more of a psychological blow rather than a lethal force. Therefore, Chen Qi also hopes to take advantage of this opportunity to let these four people who will lead Ursus' new ideas in the future feel the most intuitive cruelty.

"This is simply... inhumane."

Looking at everything that was burned in the past, I don’t know who said these words tremblingly.

"yes……"

Chen Qi looked at everything around him. At this moment, everything had been destroyed to pieces. It was simply a scene of hell on earth. After a long time, he spoke slowly.

Admittedly, he had never used weapons such as white phosphorus bombs on the battlefield, but to be honest, when fighting against the Ursus Legion or the Kazdel Legion, Chen Qi did do a lot of crazy things, during the days when he almost lost his mind.

It's not that he hasn't caused large-scale casualties. On the battlefield, every strategy of his will cause casualties. His position is on the side of Rhodes Island, so he will not feel guilty about how many enemies his strategies have killed.

If he didn't do this, they would be the ones to die. Chen Qi knew this very well, so he didn't regret what he had done.

However, what Chen Qi knew was that he was a man with his hands full of sins. Countless people had died directly or indirectly at his hands, and all of these were related to him.

As long as it is a war, no matter whether it is the invading side or the defending side, strictly speaking, they are all people whose hands are stained with blood. As an existence that has traumatized the continent, Chen Qi has no reason to excuse himself.

Therefore, he only hoped that he could settle his sins after saving this continent. He also wanted to see the day when this continent would be...

……

At this moment, in the closed mine, the two women hiding there fell into an unprecedented silence.

The scorching air was more unbearable than they had imagined. Simply applying paint to the lips was no match for the burning air. The air was so thin that it was almost unbearable, causing the two women to suffer torture that was more painful than death all the time.

Their chests kept rising and falling, as if they would not be able to survive if they did not do this. None of them knew how long they had been waiting, but they felt that every second seemed as unbearable as a year.

None of them fell asleep. Razer was watching over Franka to make sure she didn't fall asleep. She was afraid that if Franka fell asleep, she might never wake up again.

I don’t know how time passes, I just feel like every minute and every second is torture, and my days are like hell.

"... shorty."

"Shut up, fat fox." Razer interrupted Franka's words without hesitation, panting at her, and said impatiently:

"Save your energy. In your current state... don't do anything that consumes your energy."

"Think of something happy. Don't you always want to touch my tail? My tail can't move now, so feel free to touch it."

"...No, shorty, listen to me."

However, at this moment, Franca smiled slightly. Her face, which had become miserable due to excessive blood loss, made her look a little gloomy.

"Shorty... I feel so bad... My thigh hurts... My whole body hurts..."

"I beg you... just give me a quick death..."

"..."

Razer was silent. After her pupils dilated slightly, she slowly looked at Franka's body.

Her pupils have adapted to the dark environment, so she can see Franka's current condition clearly without the help of a lighter.

Franka's thigh was pierced by Originium, and the Originium infection at the wound was spreading at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was only a vague Originium infection just now, but now, the crystals of the Originium infection can be clearly seen.

Moreover, her flesh was pierced by Originium. At this moment, Originium crystals were probably appearing inside Franka's body... Even breathing must be extremely painful.

…She is not far from death. The Originium disease has begun to spread, and Franka is now suffering from lack of oxygen, water, and difficulty breathing. It can be said that she only has one breath left.

However, the despairing thing is that they don’t even know how long they have been tortured here. They don’t even know... how long they have been holding on?

Two days? One day? Eight hours? Or just one hour? Trapped here, they were tortured every moment, and they had no idea how much time had passed.

The most desperate thing was that although they were in pain, only one or two hours had passed.

"I've had enough... Shorty... Even if I'm rescued now, it won't help..."

"We have been friends for so many years... Please give me a quick death..."

In the pitch-black cave, the woman's lazy and weak voice came out slowly. The despair in her words was deeply imprinted in the heart of the other person...

Chapter 193: Reversal of Despair, Rescue of Jessica

"Shorty... For the sake of our years of comradeship... I beg you..."

"I feel so uncomfortable... While I am still sober, please give me a quick death..."

In the pitch-black environment, Franka's weak murmur made Razer's hands tremble. Her eyes trembled slightly as she looked at Franka, and in the darkness, she met her brown eyes.

At this moment, she saw for the first time pleading... and despair in the eyes of her partner, who had always been taught by her to be a good person.

"Are you kidding..."

Razer clenched his fists tightly, and said to Franka with a trembling voice: "How could I - give up on you like this."

"...I know you're someone who won't give up, shorty."

Franka smiled faintly when she heard that. After a painful dry cough, her vision became a little dazed. At this moment, the look she gave Razer was so gentle.

This is the tenderness that was previously hidden behind repeated teasing, an expression that is only revealed when one has absolutely nothing to worry about.

"But... I'm not you... I'm not someone like you who has mediocre talent but can succeed through persistence and unremitting efforts."

"To be honest... I used to look down on you. I wondered why someone like you with such mediocre talent could be my partner... I am a swordsmanship genius that our clan has not seen for a hundred years... And yet you are my captain..."

"But later, slowly, I realized that you have a lot of things that I don't have... reliable, tenacious, and a little serious, but I really admire people like you."

"Don't say that... Fat Fox." Razer's voice was a little choked at this moment. She stood up straight, moved in front of Franka, and said tremblingly:

"You are the most talented swordsman I have ever seen. I am not as good as you in many aspects..."

"I have been dumber than my peers since I was a child. When other children could walk, I, my age, couldn't even crawl..."

"I barely passed all the subjects in the academy exams... I was just a little bit away from failing..."

"When I first came to Black Steel International for the test, my mastery of Originium skills, combat skills, tactics and strategies were all mediocre."

"I was originally the least noticeable one...but you were the only one willing to team up with me at that time. You didn't mind my clumsiness...you didn't mind my slow reaction..."

"I have always wanted to do better. I want to be more resilient and more careful. Over the years... I have been so harsh on you..."

"I've always felt that...if we really die in a mission one day, I can only die one step before you. I hope I can influence you...I hope my carefulness can create more opportunities for your future..."

"… Shorty, why are you crying?"

Franka looked at the Razer who couldn't help crying while talking, smiled unconsciously, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said lightly:

"I am the one who is about to die... Don't act like you are telling me your last words..."

Franka let out a long sigh, feeling the burning air around her, her limbs gradually losing strength, and her attention beginning to scatter...

"... Shorty, you have that, right?"

"You must have some, the so-called 'glory bullet' or something like that."

"……Um."

However, it was unknown how long it took for Franka's voice to receive a response from Razer.

All he saw was Razer silently taking out a copper bullet from his shirt pocket. In the pitch-black environment, he could vaguely see a simple smiley face drawn on the bullet with a pen.

Razer's other hand slowly took out the small gun from his waist and slowly removed the magazine of his gun.

Speaking of which, this is the first time Razer has loaded bullets into his gun.

Strictly speaking, the firearms on the Terra continent do not need to be loaded with ammunition. Firearms can be regarded as a form of Originium staff, which fire bullet-like attack effects by inputting Originium skills. Not everyone who uses firearms can afford to use fake and expensive bullets like Jessica.

Therefore, since the day when the headquarters approved the firearms for her, Razer has never disassembled her firearms. On the one hand, there is no need to do so, and on the other hand, she also carefully maintains her firearms for fear that they would break if disassembled too much.

The maintenance of firearms was handed over to maintenance personnel. There was no need for Razer to disassemble it or load bullets. She was not Jessica, she was not that rich, and she did not use Jessica's bullets. A big part of the reason was that she felt guilty about it.

"This glorious bullet... cost me a lot of money. Come to think of it, this is the only time in my life that I bought a bullet for myself."

Razer looked at the glorious bullet in his hand and slowly put it into the magazine...

"... The bullet sent me to my death... You really gave me face."

Seeing this, Franca couldn't help but smile. Finally, she slowly closed her eyes and whispered:

"Finally... I don't have to suffer this..."

"Shorty...if you still have a chance to survive...take the card I left in the drawer of my dormitory...there are some of my savings in it, take it, and if you have enough money in the future, go and realize your dream of opening a security company..."

"…I'm sorry, my dream has changed."

However, suddenly, the voice of Razer came slowly. The next moment, Franka only felt her body being lifted up and slowly pressed against an equally soft body. The sudden change made her open her eyes and look at the Razer in front of her.

"Shorty...you..."

"Idiot...How can I survive without you?"

Razer gently hugged her dead partner in front of her, buried her face in Franka's shoulder, and said word by word in a sullen voice:

"I'm worried about you going on this journey alone without me."

"This time, I will accompany you and clear the way for you."

“…You’re such an idiot.”

Finally, Franka gently hugged Razer in front of her, her voice finally choked, and two tears slowly flowed from her eyes which were beginning to become lifeless.

"You shorty...you are the dumbest guy I have ever met."

"…If you are stupid, just be stupid. Stupid people have good fortunes."

Razer couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this, and couldn't help but hugged Franca tightly in front of him, and whispered in her ear:

"Thank you, Franka."

"I'm the best partner you've ever met."

"...Me too, shorty."

Franca smiled softly when she heard that, and at this moment, she finally closed her eyes peacefully.

Razer wordlessly raised the gun in his hand and pointed it at his own temple.

"--boom."

After a dull gunshot, everything seemed to return to calm, without a single ripple or obstacle.

However, as they slowly lowered their guns, Franka and Razer slowly opened their eyes.

"boom!"

Was that... a gunshot?

"... Shorty, are we in the underworld?"
