(It was supposed to be updated yesterday, but it was May Day yesterday, so ...... Huh)

"Citizens of the Empire, please remain calm...... Please ......%*$# (mechanical murmur)"

"Let's die! We want to live! We want to live......

"Dada......"

"Believers, descendants of the serpent, the father of the serpent is coming, and those hypocritical imperial bureaucrats cannot stop us......"

(Screams, panicked footsteps, guns, explosions...... ）”

“......”

After a long time, in the ruins of the city, flesh and blood were mixed with broken machinery, and some survivors were moaning behind bunkers and in corners...... At least for the time being.

Katara Hasei looked at everything in front of him indifferently, there was no wave in his heart, he just silently reset his armament and adjusted it to a state of readiness.

It's another ordinary day, and the desperate rioters try to snatch the tickets and smuggle them onto the boat, but as a member of the sheriff's department, Katara Hase, wants to stop their hope of living because the tickets are simply not enough.

At night, there will be countless people licking the wounds of the day and mentioning his name through gritted teeth.

Kasara Hase's face was expressionless.

Such scenes abound in the world at this moment.

Once the Ringworld was the pride of humanity across the galaxy, with more than 80% of humanity living on top of this huge Ring, but now it is no more.

Right now, the "stars" are coming, and the fear of humanity is growing stronger every day.

Every day, hundreds of millions of spaceships travel between the world and other planets, and every day, trillions of humans flee the world and travel to other planets. In the starry sky, countless reinforcements are desperately trying to intercept the "star", trying to slow down its pace, even a minute, even a second, that is enough to save a million people.

But the "star" does not stop, except for eating, it never stops.

In the blue sky around the world, the "stars" are getting bigger and bigger every day. A year ago, it was just a white dot next to the blue giant Sumor that was impossible to see if you weren't careful, but now that huge white bright spot is so eye-catching next to the blue star.

Everyone wants to escape, but those who can escape will always be a minority.

Every day, the trillions of humans fleeing from the Rim are enough to fill a high-quality administrative star, but for this 20 billion trillion-clad Rim World, trillions are just a drop in the bucket.

With just a ticket, the revered and invincible nobles of the empire will smile flatteringly, and the noblewomen of heaven who are sought after and worshiped by billions of people will also lose their reserve and shed their dresses like the most unfashionable prostitutes......

Power, wealth, beauty, wisdom......

All these things that were once worshipped are insignificant in front of this ticket to survival. On the eve of this apocalypse, the entire ring world is plunged into hysterical madness.

The end has not yet come, but the empire is already struggling to hold on.

Silently staring at the ruins of the city in front of him, Garo Hasei raised his head.

Looking upwards, the view crossed the continuous urban agglomeration in the sky, and over the looming clouds, the huge, magnificent blue giant star was clearly visible in the city and floating islands, and next to the blue giant star Sumor, a shining "star" was clearly visible.

There are 30 days left until the end of the world.

......

The streets were deserted, with few human figures in sight, no shuttles in the air, no pedestrians on the ground, and only a few self-disciplined machines still running, maintaining little order.

As early as three months ago, commercial activities were largely halted and replaced by military restrictions and stay-at-home orders, with people no longer allowed to come and go freely, but to enjoy their last days at home. Although the empire has never recognized the end of the world, the slogan "Enjoy the last days before the end" has been played on various communication platforms.

The breath of despair permeates the entire world.

Garo Hase's way to the sheriff's office, where the crowd was even sparser than before, except for Jerome and another young girl. Jerome floated in the gravityless spherical chamber as always, spitting bubbles out of boredom.

"Director, Hemnom resigned, saying he didn't want to be a virgin before he died, and went to the. Now it's just the three of us in the entire sheriff's office. ”

Jerome raised his hand weakly, and then said lazily.

In Hase's impression, he was originally a very shy and shy boy who loved to laugh, but under the long-term pressure, he basically no longer had a smile on his face, but was depressed.

Yesterday I thought about letting him relax, but I didn't expect it to be ...... today

Although there were waves in his heart, his face was always expressionless, and Katara Hasei just nodded calmly, and then sat down in his place.

For a moment, the three of them were speechless.

After a while, the girl seemed to be unable to stand the dull atmosphere, so she took the initiative to open the topic and asked.

"Director, it seems that you weren't a resident of the Rim before, did you, why did you come to the Rim Rim?"

Around the world, 5,000 years ago, or even 2,000 years ago, it was still a dream that everyone in the galaxy longed for, but now it is a prison that everyone in the galaxy wants to escape. Katara Hase, who is only thirty years old, came to the world of despair?

Jerome was still lazy and couldn't get up, his back to the two of them, but his eyes were slightly open to show that he was also interested.

Katara Hasei didn't answer immediately, but was silent for a moment, and then said slowly.

"My mother brought me here. ”

She said that my ancestors had lived in this borough for a long time, and then went to other planets to live, and shortly after I was born, she took me to the world around the world, hoping to trace the memories of my ancestors' survival...... At least that's what she told me. ”

Garo Hase's words were calm, but the girl was stunned.

She hesitated, but finally couldn't help it.

"Director, it seems to me that your mother...... I really don't deserve to be a mother. Everybody wants to escape from this prison, and your mother pushes you into this fire pit with her own hands...... It's ......."

She wanted to say something and stopped, but she couldn't continue.

In the end, she only looked sad, gritted her teeth, and shook her head, as if she didn't want to admit it.

"If it's me...... I would never let my loved ones come here, absolutely not. ”

But Karo Hasei just shook his head.

"No, she's a nice person, gentle, kind, maybe she has her own special reasons. But in any case, I don't know now. ”

The man's spiritual energy fluctuations are very calm, without resentment or unwillingness.

Then, he looked up at the young girl.

"And you, Fafachip, tell me your story. ”

Fafachipu smiled bitterly.

"I, I don't have any stories, my ancestors came here in the early days of the world, and then there were very plain and boring stories until I was born...... The star was already clearly visible. ”

The girl muttered, lost in her own memories.

"Sometimes I really think, why did they give birth to me, how nice it would be if I hadn't been born, so that I wouldn't have to endure this torment and torture...... Every once in a while, I wake up from that nightmare, but a lot of times, I wish I had lived in a nightmare so that I could wake up and not have to wait for death. ”

Her voice faded into a low voice.

Even though she is more optimistic than most people, at the moment, her state of mind is already in a state of flux.

"Jerome, what about you?"

In the face of the man's inquiry, Jerome always turned his back to the two, but was silent for a while, and then snorted.

"Hmph, same as her. ”

It's clear that Jerome wasn't willing to mention his story.

The man didn't ask any more questions, and if his friend didn't want to say it, then he didn't say it.

......

At night, the man falls asleep.

Without the restraint of reason, all kinds of strange dreams also surfaced in his mind.

He dreamed of a group of primitive people in animal skins raising their spears and roaring towards the giant serpent who was regarded as the "god of Huhulugu"; he dreamed of a stormy water world in which the family trembled and hugged each other, looking at the gloomy sky above their heads in fear, as if in fear, while a gentle phantom opened its arms and embraced her descendants; he dreamed that the people who were struggling to crawl forward on the beach red with blood were finally held to the head by a man with a gun, and after some conversation, the man's pistol was shot through the head......

In the universe, the Venerable Emperor opened his eyes, the stars swirled in his eyes, the planets crumbled before his eyes, and in the alien plane, the abandoned monsters of the old world loomed in the shadows, and billions of trillions of pupils stared at the laughing world, ready to move......

All kinds of incomprehensible and indescribable dreams are unpredictable.

Growing up, these strange dreams haunted him, but by now he has learned how to ignore them.

But the dream changed, and finally came to a scene he had never seen before.

......

Tall wooden tables and chairs, tall houses, tall people...... Everything is so huge, here, it's like you've strayed into a giant country.

Not far away, 'Mother' was talking to a nervous-looking man.

"Shrine Maiden...... Lord Morogara...... Death...... Must flee ...... Hope ......"

The sound was faint when it came to my ears, and I could only faintly hear some strange terms. As the conversation continued, Mother's face grew paler.

In the end, the other party left, and the 'mother' stood in place in disappointment.

"Mom, hug ......"

Slurred.

'Mother' turned her head when she heard the voice, then leaned down and hugged herself tightly, and then said something she didn't understand.

“...... Gaara, you must live well...... Waiting for the day when fate turns......"

As she spoke, Mother let go of herself.

At this moment, she looked at her face full of tears, but as she cried, she showed a sad smile.

"Someday, someday ......"

The voice gradually became ethereal, only the lips opened and closed, making the unfinished voice unreal. But I don't know why, but there is an invisible feeling in my heart, and I am faintly aware that this unfinished word is very important, so what is it?

I tried to listen, and then, I seemed to hear clearly.

"One day, you will be the savior. ”

......

TVIK-6395465 administrative district, nothing to do today.

There are 30 days left until the end of the world.
