Hua Jin was but an ordinary man. He was no saint and felt that death was meaningless. He was also afraid of death. He was even more afraid… of such an inhumane death.
Whenever he closed his eyes, the image of Romanka’s tragic death haunted him. Just the thought of that miserable scene made him nauseous, as if countless things were churning in his stomach. He swallowed whatever it was that had surged to his throat. He had not eaten much to begin with. If he threw up, his body would not be able to last long.
Natalia finally couldn’t take it anymore. She suddenly said, “Don’t give me any more of your food, okay?”
Alice and Hua Jin looked at her in surprise.
Natalia said, “I know you’ve always wanted to protect me. Besides, although you didn’t say it aloud and tried to hide it, I knew that you secretly gave me your food. Actually, it’s not necessary. I don’t need so much food. You’ll collapse if you keep eating so little.”
“Natalia…” Alice smiled and said, “We’re fine. Don’t worry…”
“I don’t want to be the lone survivor!” Natalia finally burst into tears of despair.
Having been held captive here for so long, she had been so strong that she had never shed a tear. However, when she woke up and saw that Hua Jin had suffered new injuries again, she was reminded of how he had been beaten up to protect her previously. She couldn’t take it anymore and broke down completely!
“I want us all to survive! If… if anything happens to both of you, I won’t survive either…” Natalia clenched her fists so tightly that tears fell from her eyes. “Don’t give me food anymore… I can hold on… Let’s survive this together, okay?”
The actor looked at Alice, touched beyond comparison by Natalia’s words.
What a comfort! His Natalia was such a gentle soul.
Not every child could remain so calm in a dire situation like this. Her life was hanging by a thread yet she was thinking for the others.
“Don’t worry!” Alice said, “We’ll definitely be able to get out of here when Gong Jie comes to rescue us!”
“Yeah.”
At the mention of Gong Jie, Natalia’s eyes lit up with hope. “He’ll definitely come and save us. We can’t just give up like this! Don’t be dejected!”
“Yeah.”
…
“Reporting, Young Master Jie, everything is ready. When are we leaving?”
“Young Master Jie, the 50 elites are all in position. I’ve also prepared all the supplies we’ll need along the way. We’re just waiting for your word.”
Port.
A huge armed cargo ship was docked near the coast. There were still people moving things back and forth on the freighter.
This cargo ship carried military firearms worth tens of millions of dollars.
Gong Shaoying looked at the port from afar, he was still in disbelief. He turned to look at Gong Jie and probed, “Are you really not going to consider adding more team members? 50? You’re facing the Sacred Temple, which has thousands of followers.”
The young man smiled. “As you said, it’s 5000 believers, not 5000 soldiers. 50 people are enough to deal with a mere 5000 believers.”
“Of course I don’t think those 5000 believers are that scary.” The older man raised his concern. “But before facing those 5,000 believers, you first have to face tens of thousands of armed troops.”
