Chapter 527: This Guy is A Demon.

There were rebels nearing their location, at their one-and-three o’clock directions. This was determined by Xiao Luo after he listened to the tiny vibrations transmitted from the ground.

“Just stay here, I’ll be right back!”

Xiao Luo told Tang Wantian, and at the same time, he threw the sniper rifle to her so that she could keep it. Moreover, that could give her a sense of security. After that, Xiao Luo took a dagger, and like a hungry wolf hunting for food, rushed towards the one-o’clock direction.

Tang Wantian squatted in place according to Xiao Luo’s words. She gripped the sniper rifle tightly and paid attention to the situation around her with high nervous tension.

At this moment, she finally understood the true meaning of the word ‘nervous’. She wanted to call Xiao Luo back, but she knew that she must never shout out at this time, this action would definitely reveal her own location.

When a gust of wind blew, she felt chills. When a crow chirped, her body shivered.

With the passage of time, she became increasingly nervous, and felt less and less safe, as if a group of fierce rebels would just rush out and surround her at any time, and kill her.

‘Why aren’t you coming back … Why aren’t you coming back…?’

Waiting at this time was undoubtedly a test of patience. Her heart chanted this sentence, and her eyes were glued toward the direction where Xiao Luo disappeared into. She was as anxious as an ant on hot bricks.

Cold sweat dripping from every pore of her entire being, and she really regretted coming here. Now that she thought about it, she wouldn’t doubt whether she had been possessed by some spirit. That would explain why she dared to set foot on this war-torn land. Suddenly, she was eager to return to a peaceful place, to China, where life was repetitive and boring every day.

Although her daily life was monotonous, boring, it was much wanted at this time!

Time passed by, but she still didn’t see Xiao Luo return.

Tang Wantian became more and more anxious, and several possibilities crossed her mind, all of which were extremely bad. If Xiao Luo died, then would she alone in this strange and war-torn foreign country, how helpless and desperate would she become?

“Xiao Luo….”

She whispered Xiao Luo’s name, stood up and walked carefully in the direction where Xiao Luo left.

Because of fear, her limbs were slightly unstable. She held the sniper tightly even though she didn’t know how to use it, fear of sudden attacks overcame her. Her fingers kept pressing on the trigger.

For her, every step was like walking on thin ice!

Tang Wantian could clearly hear her deep and anxious breathing, and her rapid palpation of her heart. She was on the verge of collapse.

At about a hundred of meters, she was sweating like a pig, and her clothes were drenched with sweat..

At this time, her nose suddenly picked up a bloody scent from an alley. She forcibly suppressed her inner fear, and tried not to make any noise as she went up to the alley. She also lifted the sniper rifle and was ready to shoot the enemy at any time.

When she arrived at the alley and looked inside, she was stunned by the scene in the alley.

It was a gruesome picture of hell. The alley was about five or six meters long and was filled with the bodies of rebels with fatal injuries around their necks. Their necks seemed like they were torn by some terrifying beast’s fangs, and blood flowed out of their necks freely, which showed that they were slaughtered recently.

God, this… This…

Tang Wantian’s brain exploded like a bomb. Her ears buzzed, and chill was instilled from the crown of her head down to the soles of her feet as her whole body grew cold. When the pungent smell of blood wafted again, she could no longer hold back. She leaned against the wall with her hands, and threw up.

At that moment, a big white hand suddenly stretched out from behind and laid gently on her shoulder.

Tang Wantian was like a cat that was severely frightened. She responded quickly and turned around, the sniper rifle was ready to shoot the man behind her.

“It’s me!”

But a familiar voice calmed her frightened mind instantly.

She looked intently and saw that the one standing in front of her was not the enemy, but Xiao Luo, whose clothes were stained with some blood. His face was handsome and cold, and his eyes were indifferent like ice.

Tang Wantian sat down directly on the ground, crying out, “Why have you only just came back? I thought you… “

Xiao Luo looked at her calmly, then bent down and picked up the sniper rifle that fell to the ground. He shook his head and said, “It seems that the former strong woman Tang Wantian has disappeared.”

“I’m already doing very good, ok? If I were another woman, I’m afraid I would have already peed my pants by this time.” Tang Wantian unwillingly said.

“Oh, is it? True, you are indeed better than the average woman. At least you don’t only know how to scream in such a situation.” Xiao Luo nodded approvingly.

Hearing this, Tang Wantian felt that the former Xiao Luo had returned and she now felt the sense of familiarity. She stood up from the ground and asked, “Where did you go just now?”

“I got rid of these people.”

Xiao Luo gestured with his eyes and pointed to the rebels’ bodies in the alley.

“Did you kill them?”

Tang Wantian felt surreal. So many people died by Xiao Luo’s hands? This was terrifying.

Xiao Luo noncommittally nodded. There was no need to hide it.

My God, is this guy a demon?

Tang Wantian couldn’t believe that this was the same Xiao Luo she knew. He was showing a tough exterior and a murderous aura shrouded him. Moreover, he was able to be so calm even after killing so many people. It was terrifying. To be honest, she was afraid of Xiao Luo right now.

“This is just a place in war. There is no country nor no law. If you want to survive, you must kill the enemy before they kill you. No matter what you think of me, these are necessary means. Unless you want to stay here forever.” Xiao Luo reminded Tang Wantian.

Although Tang Wantian was aware of this, she could not really accept this version of Xiao Luo in a short time.

“Xiao Luo, will you protect me?” She asked.

“We are classmates. You helped me a lot in college. So I will certainly protect you here.”

Tang Wantian was relieved and continued, “Can we return to our country alive?”

“Yes!” Xiao Luo thought and gave a firm answer.

Tang Wantian forced out a smile, “Although I know you are comforting me, I believe you.”

“Comfort?”

Xiao Luo frowned and smiled helplessly. He won’t explain much. He would just make sure that this woman would be able to leave Libya safely.

He added, “Remember, while we are here, everything should be done according to what I said. For example, just now, I told you to wait for me no matter what happened, so you must stay put, understand?”

“En, I understand.” Tang Wantian nodded heavily.
