IJWTRQ Chapter 039

T/N: Because some reader asked for warning, here’s a warning, tearjerker ahead.

At this moment, Tan Yan is fearless.

Although he looks young, he is actually already very old. When Tan Yan was young, many of his colleagues had experienced the national tragedy. The older generation likes to talk about ancient times most. At that time, Tan Yan was an obedient and serious young man, and every time he listened to the history full of blood and tears in silence.

At that time, all the soldiers and civilians were united against foreign countries, using millet and rifles to defeat the foreign guns and cannons. It was an unbelievable victory, how could such a simple weapon be used to defeat a well-equipped foreign enemy?

Even Tan Yan, who has been called an old comrade, doesn’t understand.

But in this instant, he understood.

This is the power of unity, in the face of the world’s majesty, they still won a ray of life for their companions.

Tan Yan, in the protective cover, opened his eyes, the storm was still raging in front of him, but he was no longer afraid. He turned his head and said to the panicked trio: “Found them.”

“Found them?” All three asked incredulously

“Still alive.” Tan Yan said firmly.

This is simply a miracle.

“Where?” Everyone cares about their companions and hopes that they can live.

“Ahead, five kilometers. Qin Li held up the defense, protecting the other two.”

Five kilometers, even knowing that this is a world with supernatural powers, it is too unbelievable. Is this true?

“I saw them.” In the face of everyone’s disbelieving eyes, Tan Yan’s simple sentence made everyone’s hearts settle down.

“But five kilometers, how are we going to get there, it’s almost impossible to walk here.” Ah San asked with difficulty.

Liang Xian and the others are still alive, which is great, but it is impossible for them to meet up. This is equivalent to going against the wind in a nuclear explosion, which cannot be done by manpower.

“I can do it.” Tan Yan said firmly.

“You… are bleeding.” Cui Heyu pointed to the corner of Tan Yan’s mouth.

Tan Yan wiped it with his hands, after all, he still couldn’t suppress the injury he had suffered before.

Just supporting the almost crowded protective cover to protect the three of them, Tan Yan has become like this, how to go five kilometers away? After saving the other three people, how would Tan Yan drag six people to protect everyone?

The three of them had doubts in their hearts at the same time, but they couldn’t speak them out.

Tan Yan’s resolute eyes make them seem to see the hard years of the past, that is, the persistence of knocking down the wall with flesh and blood to break out a free world even if the head is bloody.

No one can stop it.

“Cough, cough…” Tan Yan held his heart, and blood continued to flow out as he coughed, but he didn’t seem to be aware of it, just said lightly, “It’s okay, I’ve got help.”

He has the strongest helper that has been accumulated over thousands of years.

In the next second, Tan Yan turned around and started to move. At this time, there was no obstacle in front of him, as if it was a road leading to the sky.

The protective cover moved in the wind with his movements, and the other three people in the protective cover had to follow suit.

Tan Yan moved very slowly at first, but gradually, his speed became faster and faster. Initially, it was almost at a crawling speed, followed by walking, jogging, and quickly running, in the end, he was almost in a one-hundred-meter sprint speed and kept charging forward, this speed made the three people behind him almost running out of breath.

But they can’t stop, once they stop, they will leave the range of the protective cover. Must keep up with Tan Yan at a desperate speed and not let up at all.

The earth was crumbling beneath their feet, in front of them was a gale that swept everything, and in the wind swirled pieces of flesh that could not be distinguished from one another.

Wave after wave of nuclear explosion-like impact, never stopping.

The front half of Tan Yan, who was running at the front, had already run out of the protective cover. He wants to reduce the space of the protective cover as much as possible, so that there will be slightly more space for the people behind.

The wind slashed at him like a steel knife, and Tan Yan didn’t notice it. At this moment, his physical strength had been strengthened to the limit, and this kind of wind couldn’t deal with him at all.

A piece of broken glass flies by, Tan Yan can dodge it, but he can’t let the broken glass fly behind him.

He didn’t hide, the broken glass was deeply embedded in Tan Yan’s shoulder under the enormous impact, Tan Yan didn’t even blink his eyes, in his heart was only faster, even faster.

Don’t know how much longer the Great Wall can last, his companions are in a desperate situation and are still waiting for him to rescue them.

The three people in the back felt that their lungs were about to explode, but seeing the blood dripping on the road ahead, no one shouted to stop.

At this moment, Cui Heyu and Qiu Qizheng finally understood why Liang Xian always looked at them with displeasure, he was disgusted with the number of people. Those of them who are incomparably outstanding in the real world, here, no matter how many of them come, they are just a drag.

At this moment, the only thing they can do is to desperately follow Tan Yan, squeeze out the last bit of strength in their bodies, and never hold back Tan Yan!

Their legs seemed to be filled with lead, and their lungs exploded with pain with every breath of air they inhaled. But strangely, they did not feel much pain. Stepping on the blood stains under Tan Yan’s feet, their hearts were incredibly peaceful.

The not-so-tall figure in front of them blocked all the violent wind and rain for them at this moment, the purgatory on earth surrounded them, but as long as they looked at the figure in front of them, there was light in their hearts.

Years later, every time Cui Heyu recalled this memory, he couldn’t help but burst into tears.

Some people asked him how he could not change his heart and devote all his power to serving his country and people when he just had such a powerful power. Know that the temptation of powerful power is so great. Many people who are usually upright have done things that they would not have dared to think of under normal circumstances after possessing supernatural powers.

But the first batch of people with supernatural powers, the soldiers of the country, none of them went astray, and they all tried their best to radiate their own light and warmth. It is precisely because of these soldiers who stick to their hearts that mankind has not fallen into panic due to the appearance of supernatural powers.

Cui Heyu’s answer is: “It’s very simple. In fact, you all think too much, how could there be such a thing as inflated consciousness? The reason why we awakened our abilities at that time was because… we didn’t want to be a burden.”

Don’t want to be a burden to that person.

The one who trampled his own blood under his feet, ran wildly in the desperate situation to save his companions, and opened a bloody path in the purgatory for them.

Until his later years, Cui Heyu still remembered the shock and emotion felt at that time, as well as the spurning of his incompetent self.

At that moment, the exhaustion and pain in the body did not affect them at all. They only had one thought in their hearts, even if it was only a little bit, even if it could only help him block a ray of wind, they want to become the strength of the firm back in front.

Cui Heyu opened his mouth wide and ran desperately, looking at the blood under his feet, tears fell like rain.

Why so useless, why so small, why is the feeling of being protected so sad?

Didn’t know how long he ran, the time seemed very short, but he seemed to cry for a long time. Tan Yan staggered when he stopped, Cui Heyu immediately raised his breath and supported him from behind.

When he touched Tan Yan’s back, he saw two faces that were also covered in tears.

Tears of emotion, tears of admiration, tears of anguish.

Tan Yan swayed a little, his head was dizzy, excessive overdraft consciousness overdraft body overdraft everything, so that when he saw the three people who were still holding on under the city wall, his heart relaxed, and he felt that his whole body had no strength.

But he did not fall, the three people behind him gritted their teeth to hold him up.

“You can’t fall,” Cui Heyu thought he was yelling these words, but in fact, his voice had become hoarse as he ran wildly, “I swear, as long as you don’t fall, all of us will be able to go back alive, I will definitely awaken the power, next time…”

Next time, I will never let you rush to the front.

Tan Yan smiled as he leaned against the children whose legs were trembling from running wildly behind him, and he didn’t know where the strength welled up again.

It’s consciousness, right? The consciousness, or rather the wish, of these three people, gave him infinite power, allowing him to take the last few steps.

The protective cover gradually grew larger, enveloping the three people lying under the city wall. Even with the protection of the city wall, Qin Li, who has been impacted countless times, can no longer hold on. He has two layers of shell, the outer shell has long been wiped out, and the second layer is also full of cracks.

Tan Yan squatted down, touched the protective shell lightly with his hand, and said softly: “It’s okay, I’m here.”

Following his words, the protective shell immediately shattered, and Qin Li, whose clothes were already soaked in blood, rolled out.

“Da Li, Da Li!” Yan Yongfeng, who had always been protected, rolled and crawled to Qin Li’s side. He was very flustered and was incoherent, “He was shot through the heart by a hailstone, hurry, call an ambulance!”

How can there be an ambulance here?

“It’s okay,” Tan Yan’s voice is still quiet, his palm pressed on Yan Yongfeng’s shoulder, “Qin Li’s self-healing ability is the strongest among us, he will be fine.”

“But the heart…”

Cui Heyu hurriedly stepped forward to check, he took off Qin Li’s clothes, heaved a sigh of relief, and said: “Judging from the wound, it didn’t hit the heart, it just passed by.”

Fortunately, the hailstones passed directly through the chest and did not remain inside Qin Li’s body. After the hailstone left, Qin Li’s healing power immediately stopped the bleeding. In fact, he could recover using his power, but his consciousness had to be used to support the protective shell. Qin Li stayed like this until Tan Yan came.

Qin Li is a soldier who doesn’t talk much, has poor theoretical grades, and doesn’t use his brain when doing things, but has first-class execution ability.

His task is to protect the other two people, even if he dies, he will complete the task.

The moment he felt the strong wind, he immediately stretched out his arms to embrace Liang Xian and Yan Yongfeng. Through this period of training, Qin Li’s strength has become much stronger, and he can open the protective shell to protect the three people.

He turned into a shell and kept spinning in the air with the wind, and the hailstone penetrated his body, but he still ignored it, closed his eyes, and gritted his teeth to persevere. He was looking for a safe place, although there was no safe place in this world.

With his eyes closed, Qin Li tried his best to land on the ground, was blown by the wind and rolled around, and finally rolled to a safe place. Although he was not sure where this was, he instinctively knew that this was a safe place, so he lay there and waited for someone to come and rescue them.

Why can you last for so long? When Qin Li was asked later, Qin Li himself also couldn’t explain clearly. At that time, he had completely exceeded the limits of what he could do, and every second he felt that he was going to die, but he persevered.

When thinking about it later, only those who still have hope will have infinite courage, right?

Qin Li’s subconscious mind tells him that Tan Yan will definitely come to their rescue, he has always been firm in his belief and has never given up believing in Tan Yan.

And now, the moment Tan Yan’s hand touched the protective shell, Qin Li knew that he had won.

He can pass out without worry.
