Chapter 603-Baptism



Chapter 603-Baptism
"It was the last day of winter in Belarus in 1941. When the sun set on the other side of the mountains, the sound of hounds barking and barking came through the heavy snow, and those black shadows were like death. They brought inexhaustible burning. fire and death."

"The wooden door of the wooden house on the snow hill was roughly kicked open, they rushed in, surrounded the interior of the dilapidated hut, the pots and pans were neatly placed on the stove, the stove had been extinguished for a long time, leaving only an afterglow, the leader Howling angrily, the soldiers smashed the picture frame on the cabinet with the butt of their guns, and just as they were about to leave, a heavy army shoe stepped into the house."

"It was a general, with the brim of his hat pulled down very low, and the shoulders of his military uniform covered with white snow. His face was as sharp-edged as the bridge of his nose, and the eyes in the deep-set eye sockets were almost ignited. Next, he said .”

"The woman hiding alone in the lower compartment of the wooden house was dragged out of the cabin, her hair was grabbed and twisted vigorously, the soldiers cheered and threw her on the haystack, and put the torch in front of her. She's a typical belarusian with hair like faded gold, good looking but wearing some plaster, yelling something but the soldiers can't understand, they just need to know that this woman is not dumb , so that the cruel pleasures that follow will be even more cruel."

"Atrocities are happening. The German officer sits by the campfire and looks at his soldiers. The fire is shining in his eyes, as if they are about to burn, turning the country they invaded into the burning wooden house behind him. The woman kept screaming Belarusian, which the soldiers didn’t understand, they didn’t understand, but they didn’t care, thinking she was begging for mercy.”

"The hunter who hunted in the northern canyon came back. He brought the joy of a good harvest, two long-eared rabbits with thick fur, and thought he could make a pair of earmuffs for his wife when he was hungry. The fire illuminated his eyes, he raised his head, and stood on the top of the hill, like a frozen stone, he dropped his prey and ran home, calling her name along the way, beside the blazing wooden house, The woman in the pool of blood on the ground is also whispering his name, from the beginning to the end, never stops."

".What are you looking at?"

"Ok?"

In the Baroque-style library, under the huge glass dome are rows of bookshelves leaning against the wall, stacked on top of each other almost to the roof.

Su Xiaoqiang, who was sitting in front of a wooden table, subconsciously put down the book in his hand, turned around and saw Lin Nian who was holding a pile of books and came back. He looked at Su Xiaoqiang who was holding an old book.

"Ah, I didn't read anything, I just passed the time." Su Xiaoqiang covered the book in his hand on the table, Lin Nian glanced at the cover and saw the name of the book, "Dragon_Slaughter_In_Snow_Field", translate it probably to Snow Dragon Hunter?
"A very interesting book, a non-fiction novel, originally written in Belarusian, and what you are reading now is a translated version. Someone found a manuscript and notes in a small village in Ukraine, and restored the story after sorting it out." In Lin Years later, Lin Xian came out, pulled out a chair beside him and sat down.

"Good morning sister." Su Xiaoqiang said immediately after being startled for a moment.

"Good morning, have you had breakfast?"

"I've eaten it, I ate it in the cafeteria with Lin Nian." Su Xiaoqiang nodded.

"Have you read the book in her hand?" Lin Nian flipped through the books in front of him, not seeming surprised by Lin Xian's arrival.

"I've read a lot of books in this library, and I happened to flip through the one in Xiaoqiang's hand when I was bored."

"Is it good? I just read the beginning, and it seems to be about war." Su Xiaoqiang lowered his head and flipped through the pages, "But it's all in English. I can't understand it, and it's a bit difficult to read."

"Revenge biographies, probably about an old Ukrainian hunter who lost his wife and son during World War II. It was an officer of the German army who killed his family. This officer seems to have the ability to hold a tank with his hands and tear it apart. The grizzly bear, the faithful hound beside the old hunter, was torn apart in this way, and when the German officer was angry, his pupils would turn golden, and scales would appear on his body, just like the legendary dragon, which makes people fearful."

"Is that German officer of mixed race?" Lin Nian interjected, ".But during World War II, there were indeed a lot of people with blood mixed into the battlefield. The role of mixed races in wars in that era cannot be underestimated. Principal Re, I remember also wading into the muddy water."

"In short, this book tells the story of the old hunter who hunted and killed the German officer countless times after his family was destroyed. As the powerful target of dragons, he rescued countless people who were in trouble due to the war on the way of revenge, and finally even adopted a little Belarusian girl as an adopted daughter." Lin Xian took the book and flipped through it.

"The road to revenge is difficult. The protagonist suffers constantly, chasing the footprints of the enemy like a hound in famine, plague, and cold, hiding in the dark and quietly wiping the bloody shotgun, warming the flame of hatred in his heart.

At the end of the story, he also got his wish. The old hunter successfully ambushed the German officer eight times in No. 80 in a snow field, and the German officer turned into a giant dragon when he was cornered. .

The old hunter used his superb marksmanship and various ingenious traps to lead the dragon to the stone bridge on the cliff, and finally let his adopted daughter activate the pre-set explosives to blow up the bridge and the German officer became a dead man. The dragon fell off the cliff together. "

"To die together?" Su Xiaoqiang asked.

"No, the ending of the story is Happy Ending, because the adoptive daughter found that the old Ukrainian hunter was not dead after going down the cliff, he hid in the wound of the dragon, the dragon fell to his death, and he survived in his flesh and blood He even gained superhuman strength because of the dragon's blood." Lin Xian said.

"Superman's power? Is it the Superman I imagined?" Su Xiaoqiang was taken aback when he heard that.

"It may be many times weaker. It is said that there is a legend in the local area where the original manuscript and diary of this book were found. It is a World War II hero. It looks like an old hunter with a little girl. Quen made great contributions in the war, killed more than [-] German troops who invaded Belarus, protected many local residents, and they even made a statue for this old hunter." Lin Xian picked up the thermos that he carried with him Instead of pouring water directly, he unscrewed the lid and skillfully took out a can of Coke with water and put it on the table.

Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Lin Nian staring at her Coke, shrugged and explained, "The library is not allowed to bring colored drinks into the library."

Lin Xian opened the Coke and took a sip and handed it to Lin Nian. Lin Nian waved his hand to refuse and then handed it to Su Xiaoqiang. She watched the latter take it in a daze and said, "The hunting and revenge in the early stage of this story can be regarded as "Monte Cristo". Judging from the revenge novels like Earl, the part of this story that is really meaningful to future generations is actually the ending. Scholars who collected this book into the library found that at the end of the book it was recorded that the old hunter was slaying a dragon. Afterwards, he underwent a "baptism". After the "baptism", the old hunter became like a superman. After studying the traces left by him in reality, he was surprised to find that there was such a person in history, who was born as a hunter, with An adopted daughter, who fought against the German army, was as terrifying as a ghost on the snow field, and finally seemed to live to be 130 years old and then died."

"Is it related to the dragon's blood he hid in the dragon's corpse?" Lin Nian asked.

"It's hard to say, it is extremely difficult to hunt and kill dragons, even for the last four or five generations, not to mention that in the era when thermal weapons were not developed, some people suspected that the old hunter himself was The mixed race only woke up after witnessing the tragic death of his wife at the hands of the German army." Lin Xian said, "Didn't you hunt and kill pure-blooded dragons? Haven't you been 'baptized'?"

"If it's bloody, no." Lin Nian said, "Real battles often end quickly, there is no such thing as you come and I go back and forth, and the outcome is basically decided once or twice. , the shortest tens of seconds, the longest no more than a few minutes."

"Is it so dangerous?" Su Xiaoqiang was a little uneasy.

"Don't worry too much, although his super power is not powerful, but he is very strong in protecting his life. His characteristic is that he can run fast, and he can still run if he is beaten!" Lin Xian patted Lin Nian on the shoulder and smiled.

"Yeah." Lin Nian nodded, as if you said yes and no quibbling.Anyway, he is suffocating to death and can't make waves now, he is naturally short in front of Lin Xian, and he will show off by stealing a few hands of bronze and fire or ocean and water from the blonde girl in the future.

"It's written in the book that after being bathed in dragon's blood, it will become stronger. You should try it if you have the chance." Lin Xian said suddenly.

"." Lin Nian paused, as if thinking of something, he turned his head and glanced at Lin Xian.

"I heard from Mr. Toyama Masashi that Professor Mance Rundstedt has left school." Lin Xian also looked at him, "...it's probably coming soon?"

"It's really coming soon, but this kind of thing can't be rushed. I will only go when I need it." Lin Nian nodded without denying it.

"What are you talking about?" Su Xiaoqiang looked blank.

"It's nothing." Lin Nian glanced at Su Xiaoqiang, "Instead of worrying about what we said, why not worry about tomorrow's 3E exam, do you still remember the purpose of our coming here?"

"Didn't you say that you want to make a bet?" Su Xiaoqiang also suddenly became a little nervous, and lowered his voice, but there is no one in the library now.

"Today is Freedom Day, probably everyone will go crazy outside, and no one will bother us." Lin Nian said.

It was already seven or eight o'clock in the morning, and the library was very quiet, except for the sound of the light coming from the dome slowly crawling on the table. There were some voices outside the library, but not loud.The group of lunatics in the student union used the church as their stronghold during the last Freedom Day, but no matter how crazy they are, they dare not come to the library to make trouble. After all, many things in it are precious treasures of dragon civilization. I won't make trouble here.

I don't bother to care whether the Lionheart Club and the Student Union will punch each other's brains out today, it's none of the business of Lin Nian and the others in the library who have been quiet for a long time.

"So, memorize it." Lin Nian gently pushed all the books with erasable marks in front of Su Xiaoqiang.

"Recite? Recite what?" Su Xiaoqiang was stunned. She specially prepared a math book and a notebook to bet on the question, but now the other party pushed a dozen books in front of her at once.

"Memorize the exam questions." Lin Nian said, "The 3E exam is conducted in the form of Longwen, but it is not the English listening test in the form you imagined, but what he reads in the voice, you read him in Longwen." The scriptures were written down in dictation, there are a total of ten dragon essays, and it is like this every session."

"The test questions in the 3E exam are the written expression of the spirit of speech. He will play a fragment of singing the spirit of speech in the low voice of a piece of strong music. If you can identify what spirit of speech he is singing, then follow the written form. You can score when you come down." Lin Xian then explained.

"There are 118 kinds of speech spirits. Those whose serial numbers are after 88 are unstable. The ratings from 89 to 100 are dangerous, the ratings from 101 to 112 are high-risk, and the ratings after 113 are top secret. In the previous 3E exams, only numbers 1-87 appeared. There are only 87 questions in the question bank, and you have one day to memorize these words." Lin Nian said.

"That's memorizing the test bank?" Su Xiaoqiang's face tightened.

"Memorize the question bank." Lin Nian nodded.

After getting the answer, the girl looked at the books as high as a mountain in front of her and almost fainted.
