Griffin saw the boy point to the man lying beside him.

Schneider?What's up with him……

By the way, he seems to have broken a hand, now what?Are you not moving?

He lost too much blood and fell into a coma...

You have to find a way to stop his bleeding...

She opened her mouth, not knowing if she had said anything.But seeing the child kept opening his mouth and pointing at himself, he probably didn't hear it.

His vision suddenly darkened, and then he was kicked on the shoulder.The kick came so suddenly that it almost broke her shoulder.

Griffin fell heavily to the ground, she squinted her eyes, and saw a short man wearing a soft hat standing in front of her at some point, pointing a gun at herself, cursing and speaking incomprehensible words.

Seeing his ferocious expression of spitting stars, he must be very angry.

With your attire, you should be a member of the tank crew, right?

I forgot, the chassis of a general tank has an emergency escape door, you should have come out from there, right?

You... shameful bastard!

Facing the muzzle of the black hole that could shoot bullets at any time, the girl raised a hand with a sneer, and slowly extended her middle finger.

Come on, kill me if you are brave enough!

Enraged by the girl's insulting body movements, the escaped crew member raised his gun while yelling and cursing.

"boom!"

Blood and brain splattered the girl's face.

She watched as the crew member who was pointing a gun at her suddenly lost his head and fell straight on his back to the ground.At a loss.

There were hurried footsteps behind her, as if someone was calling her name in the distance, and two very strong hands wrapped around her arms and knees, picked her up and put her on the stretcher.

Richter's face that was a little bit of a punch appeared in his sight, and he was looking at himself with a worried expression.

He opened his mouth to speak to himself, but couldn't make out a word.

"You bastard, are you still alive?"

After saying this sentence dreamily, Griffin fell into a coma.

Volume 11: Port [-]

When he woke up again, it was already dusk outside the window.

The setting sun hangs in the sky, dyeing the overcast city with a layer of golden glow, just like the afterglow before the curtain of the empire ends, one cannot bear to look directly at it.

How long did I sleep?

Thinking of this in her heart, the girl felt that she was full of energy, her mind was unprecedentedly clear, her body was not at all tired, and she even urgently needed to be released, as if everything had returned to her peak state... No, it was even better than before!

Griffin himself was surprised by his own changes.

I just fell asleep, and this evolved?

However, this recovery was too fast.

Well, it seems that the overturning of the tank before, although the spiritual power was exhausted, the replenished energy became more pure.

Now if there is a tank of the same weight in front of him, Griffin is confident that he will be able to overturn it more easily than before.

"you're awake."

Looking away from his clenched hands, Griffin saw a young woman in a white coat and a nurse's cap coming in from the curtain of the hospital bed. Her facial features and demeanor made people feel very comfortable. A diamond-shaped emblem representing the League of Girls is pinned to the breastplate.

The other party approached him, standing beside the hospital bed and recording something, naturally exuding a faint sweet smell from his body.

"Feeling better? Is there anything wrong?"

"Where is this? How long have I been asleep?"

"This is a temporary hospital in the port area. You have been in a coma for nearly 26 hours." The girl who wrote the record stopped writing, raised her head and stretched out a finger to the girl on the bed, and gestured: "How much is this?"

Griffin let out a soft snort, raised his hand and slapped it away. "My brain is fine."

"It does seem so." The nurse lowered her head and wrote something.

"Where's my comrade in arms?"

"You mean the boy who carried you in?"

"It's another... wait, what are you talking about?" Griffin's eyes widened instantly.

That brat Richter, he actually hugged me while I was unconscious?I must take good care of him later!

"Standing guard outside. Thanks to him, we can be so safe here." The smile on the girl's face just disappeared before disappearing. "As for the other one you said...he survived, but lost a hand and a foot. Unfortunately, he was injured too badly."

Griffin was stunned for a while, feeling sad in his heart.

She remembered what this man said, he promised to send herself back, and he did, but at a high price.

"That's right!" Griffin suddenly remembered, and she asked the nurse, "Where is that child, the one with us, the boy named Heinrich."

"His name is Heinrich? He's also in the hospital, but he doesn't seem to be in a very good state of mind. When I say unscathed, I mean he has no trauma. However, I scanned his brain and his neurons have weakened. It’s hard to feel the feedback from the outside world, and it’s simply becoming dull.” Apparently, this nurse is a person with superpowers, but she’s not a combat member.She gave a brief description, and then concluded: "That is to say, there is likely to be a problem with his spirit, but I am not sure if this is temporary or..."

Griffin had a sad look on his face.

"It's too bad he's so young..." said the girl. "He was conscripted into the army by force, unlike us. When we retreated, his squad leader asked us to take him with him just to keep him away..."

In this regard, the nurse did not want to say anything comforting.

The injuries she takes over every day, whether young or old, have been seen by all kinds of people.She scanned their brains and dealt with their injuries. The large amount of negative information she was exposed to made her put away her pity and become hard-hearted.Everyone has their own difficulties and last resort, but in such a big environment, personal emotions are so insignificant.

So even if she found out that the dull boy who was brought in was also suffering from war trauma, although she felt sorry, she had no more emotions.

She couldn't even take care of herself.

"Griffin?" The door curtain was lifted, and Richter came in with short golden hair. When he saw his companion awake, a naive smile appeared on his face. "It's good that you're awake. I thought you'd never wake up in your life..."

...Thank you for your concern.

"It seems that you have a lot to talk about, so I won't disturb you." After the nurse finished speaking, she went to check on the patients in other beds.

As soon as the person left, Griffin immediately changed his face. "I haven't mentioned you yet. When you were running, you slipped so fast, like a rabbit, you disappeared in the blink of an eye."

Richter laughed twice. He was terrified facing the charging Russians and the rout of the entire defense line. After reminding Griffin, he turned around and ran away. When he recovered, he had already rushed to the port area up.

God knows where he would have rushed if he hadn't been hugged by the Wehrmacht soldiers on guard along the way.

"You can't really blame me for this... I will run slower next time. Please trust me." Richter promised seriously.

Believe in you!

Are you embarrassed to say this insincere apology?

Griffin rolled his eyes.

This cannot be blamed on him. The situation was indeed critical at that time. Even Olifin, the strongest shield who was least likely to have an accident, died on the way to retreat. In that situation, one could escape one by one. come out.

However, although Griffin almost knelt down, he was also a blessing in disguise, and his strength was slightly improved compared to the past.

"What's going on outside now?" Griffin asked. "Where is the instructor? Didn't you return to the team after that?"

Richter scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

"Well... I didn't return to the team after escaping from the front line. Of course, it wasn't because I was afraid of being a deserter, because I really couldn't find an organization." He repeatedly emphasized to the girl that it wasn't because he didn't want to kill the enemy and serve the country, it was really a constraint He has too many objective factors.Griffin, however, only wants to know what she wants to know, not interested in him glorifying himself. "...the instructor didn't know where he went, and I didn't see the other team members who came with us. Later, a reinforcement unit from our side came from the west. Because I didn't belong, I was organized with the machine gun team defending the street. into this army."

"Then you are really lucky. If the firing squad sees you wandering around, a guy who has left his unit, he will definitely hang you on the street lamp."

Richter narrowed his eyes. "I have shed blood for this country, why should they hang my street lights?"

You expect a bunch of lunatics to reason with you?

When the empire came to an end, the atmosphere of despair was enough to degrade even the most principled soldiers, not to mention hooligans?

Griffin didn't bother to argue with this naive lady.

"Where is Squad Leader Schneider? Take me to see him."

In any case, he fulfilled his promise and brought himself back intact, so much so that he paid a huge price, and he should thank him face to face.

Volume 12: [-] Decisions

Compared with the lucky Griffin, Schneider's condition is very bad. He has not yet recovered from the amputation operation.

Germany has cut off all sources of raw materials, factories are being bombed day and night, hospitals are extremely short of medical supplies, and there is a high probability that the so-called surgery did not use anesthesia.In the eyes of the attending doctor, there is no difference between the amputated disabled and the dead, but the last bit of humanistic spirit still urges them not to give up on these people.

They lay there post-op, staring ahead with blank eyes, like rotting flesh.

It is undeniable that what he stayed might be thinking that the two escaped to cover each other, but regardless of his deeds, no matter what he thought in his heart at first, he also covered himself after all.If he chose to leave alone, it wouldn't be what it is now.

"It seems that you are fine. That's great..." Seeing the familiar person, Schneider's eyes changed a little.He looked at the girl with envy deep in his calm eyes.

Seeing that the originally handsome monitor was now a useless person, Griffin felt uncomfortable.

Schneider lost half of his limbs, his right forearm was blown off, and his left foot was amputated below the knee due to lack of medical treatment to avoid infection. The remaining left hand and right leg were bandaged, and the whole person looked much gloomy .He didn't even look at the war wound medal placed next to his bed, and the certificates were thrown on the ground casually. This handsome young man with aristocratic temperament could no longer stand up.

Seeing Griffin appearing in front of him intact, he was only slightly surprised and envious of the girl's super recovery ability, and most of the time, he didn't want to talk much.

This made it impossible to say the original comforting words.

It was already like this, and words of comfort sounded to him like a mockery of a disabled person from an intact person.

After sitting for about ten minutes, Griffin left.

She felt that the other party's psychology was changing, which was not a good sign.Griffin wanted to say a few words of relief, but he didn't know how to speak, so he could only leave that oppressive place.

She really wanted to ask the other party, if he knew that the price of staying would be that he would become disabled, would he still stay?

But he couldn't ask the words until he left.

He will regret it, he will.

Then, under the leadership of the nurse, she went to see Heinrich who had been brought back from the front.

The situation is more serious for young boys.

He didn't react to Griffin's presence, not even to her talking next to him.Looking at this numb child who was devastated by the war, Griffin didn't know what to do.The old man next to her was sitting like a log, staring at her with creepy eyes.It's neither close nor old, so I can't say please take care of me.

"I will send you to your mother." Griffin said to Heinrich when he left.

Responding to her was the motionless figure of the boy, like a sculpture.

"Where are we going now?" Entering the hospital corridor from the courtyard, Richter asked casually, playing with his fingers.

The insensitive boy did not yet have an adequate awareness of the looming danger.Even if the eastern part of the city has been reduced to an area occupied by the Soviet army, as long as you are on German land and surrounded by Germans, it is enough for people to relax their vigilance.

Through the window, Griffin looked at the temporary beds built outdoors. The hospital was already overcrowded, but there were still German refugees who escaped from the Soviet Union-controlled area. These people included civilians and wounded soldiers. They gathered here. Wait for the boat to pick them up and leave.Those who were not injured, or who were not seriously injured, could only be placed in the open air.

The girl didn't speak. Her azure blue eyes looked into the distance and saw the endless stream of people in the port area not far away.Refugees from the east were screened and sent to safety areas closer to the west.

"If we leave too, what will happen to the people here?" Griffin asked suddenly without beginning or end.

"What?" Richter froze for a moment. "We're leaving? Now?"

Recalling what happened yesterday, they were driven away by the Russians and ran back to the city with an image of no honor. They already had a very clear understanding of the strength of the Soviet army.

Although these people are all mere mortals, the power they unleash makes them, who have Aryan superhuman strength, terrified.

They can't beat such an army.

From that moment on, Richter understood that he was far from being as good as the instructor said during training.

In other words, they are all a group of bewitched people.

At this moment, Richter felt that his world had collapsed, but he seemed to grasp something from the ruins, something he had never seriously considered before... the truth.

"If we leave, they will all be captured by the Russians outside the city without the protection of the army?" He said slowly.

"So we have to stay here." Griffin replied without end.Suddenly asked again: "Can you contact your current superior?"

"I only know the superior at the machine gun position I'm in," Richter replied.

The girl felt strange. "You didn't identify yourself to them?"

Richter shook his head, embarrassed. "No, if they know that I, as an Aryan warrior, took the lead in escaping, they will definitely look down on me."

He is a good-looking boy, very good-looking.

"You're not the only one who wants to run away."
