Chapter 2695 - Take You Home!
“Do you really think you’re a Love God?”
Flea’s bloody eye socket was almost spewing out a fire as he glared at his best friend. “I know that you haven’t recovered at all. You’re absolutely crazy! Someone, help me tie him up in case he does crazy things again!”
“Don’t tie me up! Let me go!”
Gao Huan’s eyes were bloodshot too, making him look like a ferocious wolf. “You need someone to cover the retreat for you, and I have reasons not to leave, so I’ll stay! Flea, don’t argue with me, or none of us will get to go!
“Boss, stop the tank, please! You know I’m not crazy! I simply can’t watch Jiang Xue suffer here. I really saw her just now. I really did! Please trust me! I won’t return to the capital as long as she’s here. It’s impossible!”
“Stop the tank…”
The captain gave the order after a long silence.
They accelerated in a turn to temporarily escape from the Covenant Alliance’s starship. Then, they found a hideout, where all of them crammed into two tanks and left most of the ammos as well as an intact tank for Gao Huan.
“Cut the crap. Go now. Don’t stop me from finding my wife!”
Gao Huan grinned at the captain and Flea.
Flea glared at him, and his face suddenly collapsed.
“That’s right. All of you, get the hell out of here!”
Before Flea said anything, the captain suddenly shut the door from the outside and stood next to Gao Huan.
“Boss!”
Gao Huan looked at his captain at a loss.
“Why are you looking at me? You think you can shoot down the enemy’s starship when you can barely walk straight?”
The captain said casually, “Besides, I don’t want to go to the capital either. I’m from the four families, and I’m among the few survivors who weren’t killed in the Thick Soil Sector. I would only be executed as a deserter or a traitor if I go to the capital, wouldn’t I?”
“But—”
Gao Huan stammered, “You’ll be a hero. You’re not among the leaders of the four families anyway, and you’ve done something wrong to the Imperium. Maybe you’ll become an awesome war hero after some simple vetting. Like you said just now, we’re not deserters but deliverers of important intelligence!”
“Some simple vetting?”
The captain laughed and spat a mouthful of bloodstained saliva before he opened his fingers and said, “Do you see my hands? They’re born to kill people, not to write confessions and fill out forms! When the dogs of the military department interrogated me, I swore that I would never be vetted by anyone ever again. Neither the emperor nor Lei Chenghu or the f*cking Black Wind King will ever make me write a single word of confession for them!”
“Boss!”
Gao Huan did not know what to say. “If so, you can escape back to the Song family’s territory. Didn’t you say that General Yun stacked multiple shuttles? You could separate with them and go home!”
“Forget it! The way I see it, the four families are even more worthless than the reformists. Emperor Chengwu won’t survive for long.”
The captain waved his hand and said, “Besides, you know how I always piss people off. I wouldn’t have been kicked to the frontline to defend the Thick Soil Sector with you if I had friends in my hometown in the first place, would I? Hahahaha!
“All in all, forget it. The world in the rear is not suitable for me. This place is good.”
“Boss!”
“Captain!”
“Gorilla king!”
Hearing his laugh, all the soldiers couldn’t hold on anymore. Their eyes turned red.
“Stop! Please don’t be so emotional. I’m having goosebumps all over my body!”
The captain cursed and smashed the soldiers’ heads back into the tank with his gun. “Do you know what you look like right now? Those a*s-kicking Cultivators!
“All in all, get the hell out of here in three seconds, go to the Long Wind Canyon, escape from this goddamn planet, report what happened here to the capital, and ask the emperor for rewards. If I’m rewarded too, you’ll split up my share and help me f*ck a couple of bi*ches. Are we clear?
“Now, carry out my order!”
The captain smashed the last head back into the tank.
The noises of the starship came again from the mountains not far away.
The soldiers cried from the two tanks before they left unwillingly.
The captain was finally relieved when both of the tanks disappeared. He turned around and adjusted the turret on the last tank with Gao Huan.
They dismantled the protection devices of the turret and focused all the spiritual energy in the tank on it so that it could fire astoundingly for once.
The two of them worked in silence without saying anything.
When the noises were louder and louder and the crazy wind from the enemy’s starship was about to blow away their disguise, Gao Huan suddenly asked, “Boss, do you think I really saw Jiang Xue just now?”
The captain looked at him thoughtfully, as if he were going to say something. But he paused for a moment before he continued, “Well, I think I saw her too.”
“Really?”
Gao Huan almost burst into tears of joy. “You saw her too? Is it really her?”
“I… think so?”
The captain said, “How could I be certain when the whole battlefield was on fire? But I think it was her?”
“Then, did you see her movement?”
Gao Huan asked excitedly, “She hesitated when she attacked me, right? It means that she still has some feelings that aren’t washed off, right?”
“Huh…”
The captain said, “Now that you pointed it out, I think that’s exactly what happened.”
“You’re not lying to me? You’re really not lying to me?”
Gao Huan finally shed tears. “You’re my boss. You can’t lie to me!”
“Of course I’m not. Have I ever lied to you?”
The captain narrowed his eyes and looked at the sky. “I will definitely go to hell and be broiled there after I die if I lie to you!”
“Well…”
Gao Huan was more or less embarrassed after the captain swore to him. After a long time, he said while blushing, “Boss, do you think I can get Jiang Xue back? Can I bring back her feelings and memories?”
The captain stared at Gao Huan for a long time… until he laughed in the end.
He patted Gao Huan’s shoulder and said in an unprecedentedly gentle voice, “Don’t be silly. Even god will have goosebumps seeing how much you love your wife. You won’t die. Like you said, you’ll find your wife in the Covenant Alliance, wake up her feelings and memories, and escape from the s*ithole. Really. I promise you that it will happen!”
Gao Huan looked at his captain’s uneven and hideous face and smiled like a fool.
Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
The cannon on the tank beeped when the starship had entered their best shooting range.
“Boss!”
Gao Huan licked his lips and said, “Should we say something heroic now? Like what we’re fighting for?”
“Forget it!”
The captain couldn’t help but laugh. “There’s no chance for us to upload our battle videos. What are we fighting for? We’re Immortal Cultivators. Do Immortal Cultivators need a reason to fight?
“Forget those a*sholes and scumbags. For once, we’re completely fighting for ourselves. Are you ready? On the count of three. Three, two, one!”
Boom!
The cannon was fired, and Gao Huan was blown away by the blast that almost tore the tank apart. He was dizzy again.
In his trance, he saw a hideous fireball rising in the front of the shark-like starship, which consumed the front part of the starship and destroyed its anti-gravity system, making the starship fall as if it had been bitten by an invisible beast.
He saw that his captain laughed and grabbed another two portable cannons that were thicker than his thighs. Opening fire at the people of the Covenant Alliance and pressing forward, the captain truly looked like an unbroken gorilla, until he ran out of ammunitions and was swallowed by fire.
Hearing the familiar cries of his brothers from his back, Gao Huan turned around, only to see Flea and the other soldiers marching back in the second tank.
Flea was dancing up and down on the top of the tank with crystal bombs all over his body. He was truly like a vigorous flea at this moment.
“Drunk Cat! Drunk Cat!”
Flea shouted delightedly, “Don’t forget that your wife was the goddess of everybody in this team! How can we watch her be taken by those b*stards of the Covenant Alliance? Come on. We’ll help you get her out together!”
Together with Flea, Leech, Black Leopard, and their brothers, Gao Huan charged at the enemy’s formation following their captain’s footprints.
When he was hit by that scorching bullet, he was still wearing a casual and confident smile.
“Wait for me, honey!”
Gao Huan thought, Boss promised me, and my brothers are so loyal. So, I can’t die. I will find you, think of you, and take you back… home…
