60: 030 The Beginning of a Passionate Journey

She didn’t hesitate at all and used all her strength to throw herself on top of Gu Xiaoxi, shielding his head with her scar-covered chest.

“Bang!”

A gunshot shattered the brief joy of victory.

Another gunshot sounded at the same time.

The captain of Team A1 quickly located the sniper’s hiding spot in the distant forest after the gunshot and began to counterattack.

Quan Shaoqing was petrified with fear; he hardly had time to worry about Zhong Si, and sprinted towards Gu Xiaoxi with two steps.

At that moment, Number Seventeen was tightly holding Gu Xiaoxi.

Her already scar-laden body was shielding him.

Gu Xiaoxi only felt a darkness come over her sight, as something scorching flowed down her neck, seeping into her clothes and wetting her vest.

The nauseating scent of blood hovered at her nose, and a sense of death pervaded her from head to toe.

By the time she realized what was happening, the combat medic, with a face full of horror, picked up Number Seventeen.

Quan Shaoqing also rushed over and embraced Gu Xiaoxi tightly, “Xiao Xi, how are you, are you all right!”

Gu Xiaoxi, in a panic, grabbed Quan Shaoqing’s wrist; her dark, large eyes quickly reddened.

She was fine, but Number Seventeen…

She stared with swollen, rabbit-like red eyes as Number Seventeen spat blood in large mouthfuls.

With the flashlight’s bright white light, her lips were already deathly pale, and the breath of life was getting weaker and weaker.

The combat medic wanted to give her emergency treatment, but she refused.

You could see Number Seventeen lift her lips and with the one eye that she could still open, she looked at Gu Xiaoxi.

Even though her face was unrecognizable, that eye was incredibly bright, like the moon in a dark night, shedding brilliant light.

“Girl!” Number Seventeen called out to her.

Gu Xiaoxi rushed forward and grabbed her hand, tears flowing like a dam burst, “Sister, don’t die.”

Number Seventeen, however, smiled, her gaze steadfastly fixed on Gu Xiaoxi, “You did good, and I really like you.

So, no crying!

Sister isn’t going to die!

As long as the army exists…

the military soul is unyielding!…

I’ll spread my enthusiasm on the land of the motherland, bury my body in the paradise of martyrs…

I’m honored!…”

Number Seventeen, already barely breathing, clenched her teeth to deliver every word with passion and strength.

To everyone listening, it was like a wildfire that quickly ignited their fighting spirit.

“No!

Somebody save her, please!

Please save her,” Gu Xiaoxi pleaded frantically, pulling the nearby combat medic.

The combat medic, helpless, shook his head at Gu Xiaoxi, “A shot through the heart!

Along with the excessive blood loss already…”

Gu Xiaoxi felt her hands trembling uncontrollably, tears unstoppable.

They say that the strong do not cry!

But at this moment, how could she hold back.

Please forgive her; she’s still just a new recruit, just an eighteen-year-old girl…

Let her cry this out!

Number Seventeen trembled her hand, mustering her last bit of strength to pull out a badge from her chest.

It was the supreme honor of a special forces soldier, engraved with the number seventeen.

A moment later, Number Seventeen looked at Gu Xiaoxi with a blurred gaze, placing the object in her hands, her breath growing fainter, “This is for you…

as a token of our acquaintance!

I hope you can carry on my dream and pass it on.

Little girl, I believe in you.

Keep it up!”

The next moment, Number Seventeen’s arm fell onto the grass, and the atmosphere became so quiet that even the sound of the mountain wind rustling the leaves was clearly audible.

Everyone uncovered their heads in a collective salute.

Gu Xiaoxi reached out to hold Number Seventeen, closed her eyes, feeling her body gradually grow cold, her heart as if churned by a machine, unendurably afflicted.

On the battlefield, life is so fragile, and yet so magnificent.

She didn’t even know Number Seventeen’s name!

Didn’t know what she looked like!

They had barely even met once!

And yet, she had paid the price of her life for her!

She had spilled her blood on the motherland’s soil, passed her belief to her!

Was she worthy of Number Seventeen’s trust?

And how heavy this mission was!

Quan Shaoqing looked at Number Seventeen, his eyes full of ineffable pain.

War always comes with sacrifice, and even though he had been through a lot, at this moment, he was moved.

The soldiers he led were all outstanding!

After a while, he reached out to pat Gu Xiaoxi on the shoulder, took her hand, and pulled her up from the ground.

He addressed the others, “Clean up the battlefield quickly.

Let’s head back!”

Gu Xiaoxi let Quan Shaoqing pull her along, gradually moving away from Number Seventeen.

She clenched the badge in her palm tightly, her eyes becoming even more resolute at this moment.

She would carry on Number Seventeen’s belief, work hard, and become a true iron-blooded soldier who would protect and serve the country.

The night wind gently blew, Wu An and Jiang Shichi, who had been lying with a sniper rifle at the ready in the forest, both revealed shocked expressions.

“Number 100!

It seems like your junior sister’s skills might be stronger than yours!” Wu An looked at him doubtfully, “Aren’t you from the same master?”

Jiang Shichi instantly felt like his heart was hit!

“Damn!

Now I finally understand why the master is called Liu Yishou.”

He certainly taught Gu Xiaoxi something he didn’t teach him!

Liu Yishou, keeping a trick up his sleeve!

(The baby cried out “waah!”) He must have met a fake master!

Wu An, looking at Jiang Shichi’s inner turmoil, patted him on the shoulder, comforting him, “It shows.

You’re definitely a fake disciple…

Let’s go!

The boss ordered us to clean up the battlefield.

This time the drugs must be real.

And that Zhong Si, I really want to kick him a couple of times.”

Jiang Shichi looked up at Wu An in agony, “Can you shut up for a bit?

Once this is over, I need to have a good talk with my junior sister!”
