Chapter 355 Self-Redemption

37 years old, for a man, this is the most vigorous age.

The passion of youth is still surging in his body, the experience brought by the years is accumulated, and his whole body is full of endless energy. The prospect of life is only as bright as the sun, without even a haze.

This is Gordon, 37 years old, from 34 to 37 years old, the king of the border for three consecutive years from 103 to 106 years of Dawn.

But it was also in this most brilliant year of life that everything was broken.

That day was the 14th birthday of his daughter Agatha, and Gordon only remembered it when Kallen reminded him at the dinner table.

It's not that he deliberately forgot or didn't care about his daughter. On the contrary, his daughter and wife are both his heart and soul.

When he was young and the most humble, it was Kallen who accompanied him without leaving, and later gave birth to Agatha, the little angel, gave him a complete family, and supported him to the peak today.

It's just that he has too many things to deal with every day.

The king of the border is highly respected and admired by thousands of people, but he has nothing to do with the word "stable".

This bad land is full of bad guys who want to get ahead. They all want to kill him to become the boss. Some of the most fierce ones even dare to ambush him on the road with a machete without any extraordinary enhancement.

In order to maintain the title of king, he has endless battles and kills every day. He has killed all kinds of people every day for three years. At the busiest time, he kills 50 to 60 people a day.

Wedding anniversaries and daughter's birthdays are really overwhelmed by the busyness.

On his daughter's 14th birthday, he was called out by his brothers to kill people before he finished dinner, just like thousands of days and nights.

All he can do is to quickly kill those ungrateful people and go home early, maybe he can also have a few pieces of cake with Agatha before midnight.

That night, after Gordon had chopped people, he hurried home and found that many people from nearby had gathered downstairs to watch. There were also several corpses on the ground, all of whom were sentries that he had entrusted to protect his family.

Suddenly, an indescribable sense of foreboding enveloped Gordon's heart. His steps became heavier and heavier, and he rushed upstairs in a panic, hoping that this was just a nightmare.

However, the moment he stepped into the house, his inner world completely collapsed.

The house was still the same house, but all kinds of furniture were messily overturned on the ground, splattered with blood, and a broken corpse was lying on the floor, unrecognizable, almost chopped into meat paste, and it could only be barely recognized from the clothes that it was Agatha.

Karen was slumped beside him, with blood all over her body, just staring at her daughter's body with empty eyes, and there was no light in her eyes.

Gordon's consciousness seemed to be shattered by an invisible hammer. His lips moved several times, trying to say something, but no sound came out. Only the sharp and rapid sound from his nose that was almost wailing was ringing.

His hands trembled as he tried to touch his daughter, but the shattered flesh made him wonder where to start. He felt his heart suddenly torn apart, every inch of it in severe pain, and despair surged into his heart like a dark tide.

Outside the door, a bruised sentry crawled in with difficulty, saying in tears: "Boss, I'm sorry that a group of people suddenly came here after you left."

"They were masked and their identities could not be recognized, but they were very strong, not ordinary strong. They killed all our people, including Agatha."

Before he finished speaking, his eyes rolled up, and his serious injuries made him take his last breath.

Gordon's eyes almost burst, his hair and beard were all stretched, his face was twisted with an extremely painful expression, and his eyes burned with unprecedented rage.

Gordon pounced on the sentry, shaking his body wildly and madly, screaming like a beast: "Who did it?! Who are they?! Speak! Who did it??!!"

The sentry had already died and could not respond to him.

Gordon rushed to Karen again and grabbed her shoulders tightly. Because he unconsciously used too much force, his fingers left bruises on her shoulders. He asked in a trembling voice with tears: "Karen, who did it? Did you see anyone? Tell me! I will kill them all!!!"

"Hehe. Hehe." Karen laughed miserably, and her dim eyes looked at Gordon faintly, "Gordon, why are you crying? Isn't this the life you want?"

"Kill this today, kill that tomorrow, kill for three years, killing is meaningless, right? Now it's your daughter's turn to be killed, just right, you have the motivation to kill again, You should be excited. "

Looking at Karen's empty eyes, Gordon felt his heart collapse, and his throat choked with tears, as if he wanted to pour out all the sadness and despair: "Karen. Don't be like this. I. I am also doing this for you"

Karen grinned and said, "Oh no, no, Gordon, don't say it's for us. This is the path you chose, no one forced you."

"Agatha and I never said that we hope you will be rich and powerful, let alone that you must stand out and be admired. Even if you have always been the humble little minions of the past, Agatha and I will always love you. "

"But what about you? Do you love us? You keep saying that you want to give us a better life, but what I see is that you disappoint us again and again. You only focus on your own prestige every day, and you can even slam the door and leave on your daughter's birthday."

"Agatha always said that she hoped her father could spend more time with her, but you always said that you had something to do. Now Agatha will no longer pester you, and you can do your own thing."

Gordon's nails pierced into his palms, and blood oozed from between his fingers, but he didn't feel any pain. He wanted to scream loudly, but he couldn't make a sound. He could only swallow the grief helplessly: "Karen. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for you"

"Let's go now, okay? Haven't you always wanted to go to the capital to start over? Let's go to the capital now! We can go anywhere as long as you like! This king of the border I start to restart together! "" Hahahaha! "Kalian made a sharp laughter, and looked at him with a ridiculous gaze." Gordon, if you can insist on your faith, you will simply open me and take this king. Why did you go early? If you can be so simple, you can leave your name, then where is the significance of playing and killing for so long? " . Daughter's death made Gordon too sad, tears completely blurred his sight, so that he didn't respond at all. When he found Carlian's move, he wanted to get the gun in horror. "Bang!"

The bullet penetrated Karen's head through her chin, and her body fell beside her daughter's body. The pool of blood glowed a bleak red under the dim light.

"Ah!!! No!!! No!!!" Gordon collapsed and knelt on the ground, tears pouring out like a spring, dripping on his daughter and wife.

He wanted to pick up Karen and Agatha, but his hands stopped in mid-air, as if blocked by an invisible wall, afraid of touching the cold death.

He collapsed and pounded the floor, screaming at the people gathered outside the door: "Doctor! Is there a doctor?! Who will save them!!!"

Maybe he had already seen that the person was dead, and it was useless to find a doctor.

Or maybe in this border place, not caring about other people's affairs has become the code of conduct for most people.

None of the onlookers took any action. They just looked at each other, whispered to each other, discussed something in a low voice, and then looked at Gordon with a very strange look.

At first, Gordon didn't realize what that look was, until the unprecedented sense of helplessness filled his heart, and the memories that had been left behind quietly emerged.

The scenes of the past began to blend with the reality in front of him, and all kinds of memories emerged like a tide.

He suddenly recognized that he had been stared at by such eyes countless times when he was young.

When he knelt at the door of the coffin shop and learned to bark like a dog.

When he was knocked to the ground and urinated on his face.

And when he was stepped on and treated like garbage again and again.

At that time, the onlookers nearby also looked at him with such eyes.

This look was telling him -

You are such a poor thing.

The past emerged in front of him like smoke, and the old Gordon had tears streaming down his face without realizing it.

Fenrir's back was getting farther and farther away, and Dongdong lay on her back and stretched out his hand to him, crying and sobbing.

"Let's go! Don't leave me! Woo."

In Gordon's blurred vision, the little face sometimes turned into his daughter Agatha in his memory, and sometimes turned back to the child he watched grow up in front of him, as if the two overlapped.

Gordon looked at Dongdong who was going away, and murmured with tears: "Child, don't cry for me. You told me that if you climbed to the top one day, you wanted to become an umbrella to protect more people in the rain."

"I once climbed to the top, but wasted my life in meaningless killing. And now, I can finally become that umbrella."

The fishy wind blew across this tragic battlefield, and the ground vibration near the corridor reached its extreme amplitude. The roars of the beasts came from it, almost tearing the sky apart.

Gordon stared at Dongdong for the last time, turned around and walked towards the dangerous corridor. Although his body was hunched due to old age, he suddenly burst out with unprecedented majestic momentum.

The overflowing plasma formed by the third gear overload swept over his body, igniting his body and eyes, and the explosive power made the vibration of the ground seem insignificant.

The king of the border in his old age was full of fighting spirit, his hair and beard were all standing up, as if he had returned to his prime and was full of vigor and energy, and was heading towards the end of his destiny.

Fenrir carried Nobai and Dongdong and ran fast on the street, constantly defeating the beasts along the way and rushing to the East District, preparing to meet with the mercenary troops stationed there.

During this process, Dongdong was struggling and crying, but her strength had long been exhausted, and she could not break free from Fenrir's control.

As Fenrir ran, she instinctively sensed a strange sense of danger. She quickly rushed behind a shelter, put Nuobai and Dongdong down, and then opened her arms to protect them.

Almost at the same time, the change happened.

At the end of the sky, a dazzling light burst out like a solar flare, completely lighting up the originally gloomy sky. Even if you close your eyes subconsciously, the strong light can illuminate the capillaries through your eyelids, presenting a red curtain in your vision.

"Boom!!!"

Accompanied by a deafening explosion, a huge flame column rose in the sky of the northern border area, completely piercing the clouds, and the blazing flames illuminated the entire sky red.

At the same time, the shock wave generated by the explosion spread to the surrounding blocks, the ground began to collapse, and the rocks and soil were torn into pieces, and rolled around in the storm.

Those dilapidated buildings collapsed one after another, as if they were torn apart by the hands of a giant. Cracks like gullies appeared on the surface of many blocks, and the land sank, forming many deep pits, and the landform was completely changed.

When the airflow formed by the explosion gradually settled and the vibration that ran through the entire border finally disappeared, only a flaming red mushroom cloud was left over the northern part of the border, and the high temperature destroyed everything there.

Fenrir stared at the mushroom cloud and muttered to himself: "He self-destructed."

This level of power is undoubtedly impossible for a prosthetic implanter to achieve under normal conditions, and can only be achieved by self-destruction.

Gordon's energy supply core is "Pioneer Level 1", which ranks fifth in the prosthetic power system. It already has extremely terrifying output power. Coupled with the huge increase brought by "third gear overload", the energy generated by self-destruction is completely astronomical.

Gordon had previously fought against the tide of ferocious beasts all the way, allowing his body to enter the depths of the tunnel.

Compared with the surface bombing, the power of the explosion deep in the strata has a better effect. Not only did it completely blow up the tunnel structure, but even the injured tunnel worm was killed.

Now, the complex and intertwined tunnels under the border have been completely destroyed and sealed, and countless beasts have been buried between the strata, and their offensive has been cut off from the source.

Whether there will be new tunnel worms with beasts in the future is still unknown, but at least at this moment, Gordon's sacrifice has greatly relieved the pressure on the mercenaries and bought more safety time for the border refugees who have not yet been transferred.

This first-generation king spent half his life killing and half his life practicing medicine. In the end, he burned himself in his twilight years, dedicating everything to this homeland and the people living on it, completing the self-redemption that spanned his entire life.

Fenrir looked at the direction of Gordon's sacrifice from a distance, with a fist clasped on his chest, and made a solemn salute to the king forgotten by time.

Dongdong hugged her arms and knelt on the ground, her mouth opened wide, wanting to cry, but no sound came out, only tears fell.

For most people who didn't know, this might just be the death of a stranger.

But for Dongdong, once again, she lost her important family. (End of this chapter)
