Can you hear me...

Can anyone hear me?

A faint sound seemed to penetrate my shell and reach my cranial nerves.

Come to my senses, how many days has it been since I was killed?

I don't remember, time doesn't mean anything to me in the first place.

My limbs began to go numb, I felt a little tired, and my structure began to change somewhat, killing too many lifeforms and absorbing their structural elements?

It's strange that this inferior life also has elements that can be used as nutrients.

The blood-red sun shone on the land, and there were unknown metal fragments scattered around it, which were symbols of the high development of a certain civilization.

They once originated in this land, grew up in this land, welcomed new life in this land, reigned on this land, gained supreme power, so to speak, they evolved life to the extreme, and they even had eternity.

But it was also once, just now, that the last movable metal mechanical body fell.

And its controller, before the machine fell, had been pierced through the cab by a huge claw.

The huge blood-red monster stood alone in what looked like a sacrificial square, and the blood-red sunlight shone on its huge size, and it seemed to make its exterior glow with a layer of blood.

And around it, there were piles of corpses and mountains of blood, which seemed to be their flesh and blood, dyeing the sky a dark red, without the slightest breath of life, except for this huge monster.

These people, who were once the supreme beings of this plane, the eternal rulers, have been given permanent life by their mechanical lifeforms...

But...

Just once.

Just now, with the collapse of the last machine, this plane, this land has forever become a hell full of corpses, mixed with metal and flesh, and spread all over this land very casually.

The creatures who once thought they had reigned over the world and conquered all were now forever fallen to the earth, along with their supreme masterpieces, the metal machines.

Can anyone hear me?

The huge monster didn't know how long it had been standing in this square, it was summoned from here, killed for an unknown amount of time, and returned to this place.

It was tired, and there was no longer any living creature around it that could be perceived, so it crouched down and rested for a while.

But just then, it heard that voice again.

I don't know when the voice that often echoes in my head, it speaks the language of an inferior race called humans, and has been whispering some inexplicable words to itself.

But he never responded to this voice.

It didn't care how the voice reached its ears, it was just an inferior race, and it didn't know how many of them it had slaughtered.

Human...

I know you can hear me, can you answer me?

She was really annoyed, she had never responded to the voice, but she always got tired of ringing.

The abdomen of the huge monster had a huge scar, and now it was flowing with a thick stream of liquid.

If it weren't for the sudden sound of the battle...

The lord of this world, the King of Eternity, may not hurt himself at all...

"Who are you?" it responded... A hoarse, dry sound emanated from its ugly, twisted shark-like mouth.

I don't know what kind of mentality it was, but for the first time, it responded to this voice.

Great! You've finally responded to me! It's me! Ah, you don't know who I am, but I don't know who you are, can you introduce me to you? In return, I'll introduce myself, okay?

It regretted it, and after it responded, the voice seemed to be stimulated, and its tone became obviously excited, and it said a lot of words in a row.

But for some reason, it thinks it sounds good...

The monster raised its head slightly, looking at the blood-red sun.

"I am ......"

Trembling suddenly, Bai Ran woke up from his dream, and a trace of sweat was already oozing from his head.

Why, I would have this dream at this time.

She was a little surprised...

Why do you still have that dream?

Why do you still feel very ...... for the unknown voice in your dream? Miss.

Her room had no windows and was pitch black, but the darkness was not an obstacle to her, and in the darkness her eyes always glowed red, just as the eyes of animals change depending on the light source.

But her sharp instincts told her that it was still late at night, and that the soundproofing of the storage room was obviously very bad, and even though there were no windows in the room, she could still hear a few barking dogs and cats neighing downstairs.

She seemed to realize something, and listened to the door with her ears pricked up, and found that there was no movement, but fortunately, her awakening did not seem to disturb the person outside.

"I used to not dream... Nor will I sleep."

Bai Ran sat on the bed, curled up her legs, she looked at the deep darkness, as if she was talking to herself.

"I've been adapting to it for a long time, and I feel that it's very troublesome, and I need to pay attention to my body's consumption at all times, and I can't adjust it automatically. ”

said this to himself, but there was another voice in his heart.

Are you slowly becoming a person...?

Bai Ran was stunned... Become a human?

Can you become a human being?

But human beings, where is good, fragile, selfish, greedy, never satisfied, they are perhaps the most flawed of all the life forms they have ever seen.

"Can I become a human...", but what came out of her mouth was this... It seems that there is some anticipation, some eagerness.

Then, she slowly closed her eyes, ignoring the voice inside.

But beyond the wooden door, there was a figure standing with his back to the door, silently lighting a cigarette...

At the same time, within a secluded alleyway of the city.

Several strangely dressed men with earrings and colorful hair were laughing around a crouching figure.

From time to time, the man who was still squatting on the ground with his feet was shivering.

The man, dressed in a cheap suit with black-rimmed glasses and mud all over his face and clothes, was surrounded in the alleyway by the young thugs, laughing and beating him, but he didn't want to fight back.

"Damn, it's something that didn't grow. One of the thugs stepped on the head of the suit, and the force of this kick was so strong that he directly stepped on the man in the suit who was still squatting on the ground.

Because it had just rained, there was still a lot of water on the road, which made the face of the man in the suit directly pressed into the water.

"And it's poor. A young man beside him was rummaging through a briefcase that looked very old, and found a leather armor in it, and when he opened it, there were only more than twenty yuan scattered, and there were a lot of five cents and coins mixed in it.

"Hey, I'll take a look. Another young man snatched his wallet and pulled out an ID card.

"Wen Xinghe, ouch, they're all 29 years old, why are you so cowardly?"

Several young people giggled, they looked no more than 18.9 years old, but in front of this man who was almost 30 years old, it was rampant to the extreme.

It's not that age can decide everything, but age can often make a person experience more, so that this person can get some old achievements that young people do not have, at least in terms of encountering things, the aura shown by an older person is indeed different from that of young people.

But...

At this time, this man named Wen Xinghe just kept shaking, and said in his mouth, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please forgive me for saying such things.

"Well, you see, I've found one more thing. As he spoke, a yellow-haired young man pulled out a stack of A4 printer paper loaded together from his cheap briefcase.

"I'll take a look, ahem. He cleared his throat in a pretentious gesture and read it aloud.

"Wen Xinghe, male, 29 years old, graduated from XX secondary vocational college, I hope to get this interview opportunity, the following are some of my resumes. After saying that, he threw the paper directly on the head of the man in the suit buried in the waterlogged ground.

"I'm sorry... Please, please spare me... I don't have any money... Please let me go—" The man was still muttering under his breath.

"Hey, uncle!" at this moment, a girl with colorful hair and dressed in flowers and branches walked over and said in a strange manner.

"You said that you are almost 30 years old, why are you still looking for a job? Seeing that you are in a straight suit, I thought you were a rich civil servant, but it turned out to be an old man! Are you still worthy of a person like you?"

With that, several young men laughed again.

The yellow hair led by him kicked Wen Xinghe's face again, kicking him directly to the ground sideways, he wailed and covered his face.

Indeed, in two months, it will be his 30th birthday, and after this birthday, since then, he has entered the life of middle and old age, but what about his life record?

No, from childhood to adulthood, I don't have any life history that I can handle, elementary school to junior high school is always the most ordinary one, high school has always been very honest, but the one with the worst grades.

Failed the college entrance examination and could only enter secondary vocational colleges, but he was still working hard, after graduation, due to his academic qualifications and his own personality, he was either eliminated in the interview, or he was dismissed after a month of entry, which he has experienced countless times... It's been almost ten years...

He was really desperate, today he changed into the cheap suit that his father specially bought for him, and took him to get a haircut, cut off the decadent long hair, and finally, he looked a little energetic.

Before leaving the house, his father patted him on the shoulder, told him not to be nervous, and said that he was still proud of himself.

But...

When he came to the door of the company and looked at a group of people waiting in line for an interview, he was timid...

Looking at the childish faces, just graduated from college, full of enthusiasm and ambition...

He fled...

Instead of going to the interview, he wandered the streets alone for a day, and he didn't even know how he spent the day...

Eventually, when he accidentally knocked off the meat skewer that one of the young men was holding, he was forcibly taken to the uninhabited alleyway.

He was then mercilessly beaten.

Just because of a meat skewer, they don't see themselves as human beings at all... Why...

Am I different from you, am I human...

Is it just because I haven't achieved anything when I'm 30 years old...

But I've been working on it... I'm really trying.
