Chapter 51: Distant Memories
In 3000 A.D., Xuandu.
The ninth star district, Haimiya, the main city of G19 - the city of angels.
Arctic stands under an angel statue in the center of the city and looks up at a monument that chronicles the city's glorious past.
It was tall and holy, but no one knew that it was forged with the blade of an angel, leaving the last hope for the city of ruin before the angel fell.
Legend has it that angels blessed the city, and those who stop there can easily recall the glory of that time just by looking up.
But that's all in the past.
No matter how glorious the city was in the past, now that it has lost its angels, the city is about to bear the wrath of the earth.
The North Ice weaves through the streets of the city, and the sky is gray with industrial pollution, echoing with the loud roar of machines mining in the mines.
No one knows what dangers lie beneath the mines, and when they come out, the city will be destroyed.
The conversation with her old friend Bai Kailan echoed in her mind thousands of times, and five hundred years had passed since he left Xu Luolan in the Twelve Star Regions of Xuandu, and those memories were still vivid.
"I'm going to the Ninth Star Region on a mission, Beibing, you stay in Xu Luolan, we'll meet again."
"Well, hopefully."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely come back, the City of Guardian Angels is only two hundred years away, so we agree to meet in Santa Lunta in two hundred years."
"Okay, have a safe journey and come back alive."
"The first type of dragon is just that, it's very simple. It's strange, their planet has been destroyed, why do they still appear in G19, where there are no dragons? β
"Bai Kailan, don't try to get to the bottom of it."
"Do you know anything?"
"Well, but I'll try not to let myself think about it."
"Well, since you say so, then I'll go!"
"Okay."
In this way, the heroic young man disappeared into the vast sea of stars with the golden-green blade of light full of bright power.
Two hundred years later, he did not come to the S. Lun Tower as promised, and the news of his death in battle spread from Hai Miya to Xu Luo Lan, and she only learned about it in the S. Lun Tower a hundred years ago.
"The second type of dragon clan has been released, Beibing, you should come back." A magnetic voice sounded in the Arctic headphones, and at the same time, she heard a new song from Dream Chaser.
"Got it." Arctic retracted his thoughts, paused on his way to the mine, and returned to the Angel Monument in the center of the city.
She thought, when Bai Kailan died in battle, she must not have thought about the star map G19, nor herself, but the City of Angels, right?!
It's just that, like him, she can give everything for the city she guards!
"Beibing, aren't you leaving?" The partner asked with some curiosity.
What is there to remember about this planet that is so polluted that it has been abandoned by the Federation?
The new partner didn't know about the Arctic and Bai Kailan's connection to the city, and if they did, they wouldn't think so.
"Wait." Beibing said lightly that she saw a girl holding an angel commemorative book behind the Angel Monument.
Seeing her standing under the monument, the girl did not dare to approach, and Beibing did not know that the golden symbol on her cloak had appeared on the city's energy harvesting tower countless times.
Those energy harvesting towers have hollowed out the City of Angels, however, the consortium in charge of the city's energy has not stopped and continues to squeeze the planet.
"Oh~ you're missing Angel Bai Kailan, right?" The partner said jokingly.
Beibing didn't want to talk to him more, so he directly disconnected the communication and walked towards the girl who was a little afraid of her but didn't run away.
She held the girl's clean but oily hand without disgust, and asked, "Little girl, do you believe in the legend of angels?" β
The girl nodded stiffly, and Beibing smiled faintly, "Then you have to keep believing that one day, angels will guard this city again." β
The girl's eyes widened as she watched as the stranger vanished as a beam of light under the monument to the angel.
She's a visitor to another planet! The girl was a little annoyed that she didn't say a word to her, and they parted.
Perhaps, she can leave this city that is about to be destroyed, and now, she can only pray for the protection of angels.
Beibing stood on the bridge and marked the location of Guardian One, and the test subject who inherited Bai Kailan's genes has been sent to the City of Angels.
I don't know if he will inherit his friend's will and use the blade of light cast into the Angel Memorial Book to guard the city of angels where she didn't stay for too long, but Bai Kailan stayed all his life.
"By the way, Arctic, have you ever been to Santa Lunta?" The dark-brown-haired teenager walked up to the spaceship's control room with two cups of instant coffee in his hand and handed them to the Arctic Ice.
"Been there, what's wrong?" Beibing didn't raise his head, looking at the position in front of him.
"I heard my father say that it was an ideal country, but unfortunately, only those who were invited could go in. Arctic ice, is it really that good there? "The boy is full of expectations for Santa Lenta in the Ten Star Zone, and all the systems of the spacecraft come from the Cyber Technology Research Center of Santa Lenta.
"I don't know." Beibing endured the strange taste of coffee, tasted it, and felt that the nutrient solution was delicious.
The young man was surprised: "You've been there, why don't you know?" β
Who says if you've been there, you'll know about it? Beibing gave him a look to realize it, put the coffee aside, and began to report the news to Sanrence Tower.
Seeing that Beibing ignored himself, the young man said: "One day, I will become a hero like my father and go to Santa to receive honors." β
"Oh, bless you."
"Hey, Arctic, why are you talking so little? Do you know that life with few words is very boring! β
"I don't want to know." Beibing made up her mind in her heart that she would cancel her partnership with this teenager when she returned to Santa Renta, and it was not good for the task to talk too much, but she was still used to being alone.
The boy pursed his lips in frustration and compromised, "Okay, let's go back and hand in the mission." β
"Hmm."
The spaceship is far away, and the G19 is left far behind, target: Xuandu, the 12th Star Sector - Xu Luolan.
"Arctic, why did Santa put the second type of dragons into the center of the G19?" The more the boy thought about it, the more wrong it became, and he saw that those dragons full of destruction were very similar to the demons that attacked the City of Angels.
Don't......
A bold idea formed in his mind, and the naΓ―ve boy told Beibing about the idea, but he didn't know that Beibing's eyes were frosty.
"North Ice, why don't you speak? Am I guessing wrong? The young man asked reluctantly.
"You're right." The girl said lightly, her eyes were cold.
"Uh-huh~, I'm so smart, I'll pass on this situation to my father in a while, and he will definitely help me check G19."
"That's right."
"Then we'll have to go back and get them back, and we'll have to report to the Federation...... Ahββ!h Before the boy could finish speaking, he was knocked unconscious by the electric current passing through his body, rolled his eyes, and collapsed on the metal floor.
Behind him, Bei Bing's face was cold, and the stun gun in his hand rattled.
"You're so smart, why don't you think about why demons only attack the City of Angels?"
"If it weren't for the uncontrolled mining of ore by the Dawning Group, the last refuge of the dragons would not have been threatened......"
The threatened dragons will surely destroy the machines that affect their survival, and unfortunately, in those years, the City of Angels was guarded by the strongest warrior of Xu Luolan, Bai Kailan.
Beibing didn't say anything, she knew that the unconscious teenager couldn't hear these words, she commanded the robot to send the teenager to the lounge, not afraid that he would wake up and tell the truth, his father was also a member of the Cyber Organization!
Suddenly, she was a little sad, when she studied the first type of dragons, she never thought that they would be sent to G19 and Bai Kailan would fight them......
Beibing looked at the distant Hai Miya from the window, and said silently in his heart, I'm sorry, Bai Kailan!
