Chapter 7 Covenant and Choice
Time flies, time flies, and when Weisheng rekindles his interest in the Cross Project, it was already February 2188, and he calculated the time, and there was the last mock test of the whole area at the end of the month, and then March was the first cross test of the Cross Base.
Although in the cross test of the source world, Weisheng has always maintained the first place, but he still feels that it is not enough, far from enough.
There were so many heavenly pride in the previous cross test, especially the first batch of contestants, who were born in that era, and their minds were not bound to the greenhouse.
Weisheng was envious, and so was Ze, but his pride didn't allow him to tell anyone.
So, with the temporary permission given by his grandmother, He Ze left the Avalon Academy before the mock test and returned to the Northern Capital.
Because his grandmother said that she would take him to worship an old man before the cross test.
That old man is Dr. Jiang Yan, who originally proposed the cross plan.
As the executor of the Cross Project, Dr. Jiang Yan did not return to his hometown, but was buried in the northern capital, where he had never been.
It is said that the Northern Lights can be seen from the snow-capped mountains of the northern capital.
It was the middle of winter, my grandmother was wearing a fiery red coat, her expression was cold, but her face was still thirty years old, and she looked at the photo of the man on the tombstone, and there was a softness in her eyes.
In front of her, He Ze seriously kowtowed three times to the tombstone engraved with the word Jiang Yan, and then got up, did not slap his legs, and silently retreated behind his grandmother, waiting for her to speak.
I haven't seen him for three years, and my grandmother is not surprised at all when she sees him, and even faintly alienates him, and Ze doesn't understand the reason, but believes in my grandmother.
Moreover, he also knew very well that his daily life was transmitted back to the family in real time by Skynet, and only his grandmother would pay so much attention to him.
It's just that why do you want to come to worship Dr. Jiang Yan?
It stands to reason that my grandmother had no connection with Dr. Jiang Yan, who had already passed away at the time of her birth.
Just when his heart was turning a thousand times, his grandmother suddenly turned around, took off her indifference, and kindly asked the distracted young man, "Aze, why are you trying to worship Dr. Jiang Yan?" ”
It is an interrogative sentence and a declarative sentence.
He Ze nodded generously and asked, "That's true, grandmother, I have never heard that the family is related to Dr. Jiang Yan, and it was also our Baiyu clan who opposed Dr. Jiang Yan at that time. ”
The first time he saw Dr. Jiang Yan's photo in the Source World, he had a strange feeling in his heart, as if he knew this person very well, but he couldn't say anything.
Now, when his grandmother, who has never revealed that she has anything to do with Jiang Yan, has said it, the speculation in his heart has become clearer and clearer.
Grandmother chuckled lightly and quipped, "I know what you're thinking, Aze, Dr. Jiang Yan is not your father, you are indeed a child of my Baiyu clan, but you are different from ordinary children, you should have noticed it over the years." ”
He Ze's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he snorted, "The members of the Baiyu clan have not participated in the cross test, and they have always firmly grasped the Northern Capital, Avalon Academy for more than a hundred years, and only I have gone. ”
The grandmother looked at her grandson with great satisfaction, but when she thought of another thing, she was a little worried, but Aze would face these problems after all, so she sorted out her thoughts and asked, "You want to know why, Aze." ”
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just an agreement."
But this agreement handed over half of Heze's fate to the cross base.
He Ze tilted his head slightly, a little puzzled, "Agreed?" ”
"Well, the agreement of the Cross Project, because of this agreement, even after the era of the Great Tribulation, the Cross Plan is still being implemented."
Speaking of the catastrophe, my grandmother's expression became a little serious at this time, "He Ze, the next words are mostly stories I heard when I colonized the planet, but they are true. ”
"But you're not strong enough right now, I can't tell you too much, but when you enter the Cross Base, you'll definitely meet them."
"Them?" Who are they?
"Like you, the son of a homeland who bears a promise."
"The parents of those children, without exception, are evolutionary species, and their children are the best among them. Therefore, as long as it is a second-generation evolutionary species, as long as he passes all the cross tests, regardless of his gender, he will be sent to the cross base without discrimination. Then, drive the starship to the alien planet, and until life appears on the planet, it will stay there, or even never return. ”
"After the catastrophe, the connection between the earth and those colonized planets was cut off by Candle Moon, and if it wasn't for Dr. Jiang Yan to build a greenhouse, we wouldn't be able to continue to carry out the cross project."
"The white jade clan, it's you who choose."
From his grandmother's story, Kazusawa gradually learned why he wanted to go to Avalon Academy, and he also felt a little worried about the future.
The world is so big, he wants to break out of the greenhouse and go outside, but he also wants to find a little peace.
But how can it be that easy?
His grandmother asked him, "Would you rather stay in this era and become the ruler of the Northern Capital, or go to the future to be a civilization watchdog?" ”
"Grandmother, my goal has not changed, the Archon of the Cross Base is much more interesting than the Overseer of Civilization, and I have never given up on surpassing my father."
He Ze thought that his father became the archon of the Cross Base when he was twenty years old, and even if he was burdened with a promise, it was impossible for him to give up his ideals.
"That's good, I'm just worried that you know too much and don't want to stay at the cross base......" The grandmother stopped talking, staring at He Ze sadly, and sighed in her heart.
Azeta, he's really looking more and more like that person.
Especially those eyes, like a blue sky, every time she sees Aze, she always thinks of that person.
That person's name is Xingyan, not Jiang Yan.
From a long time ago, she knew that he lived outside the windbreak in the North Side, working as an ordinary forest ranger.
It's been more than fifty years since I knew the man, he has never grown old, and the last time we met, he was still twenty years old, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth.
He told her that if the boy regretted giving up his family's agreement, he would let him go to the windbreak after the third test of Project Cross.
More than a hundred years ago, twelve-year-old Beibing made a pact with Xingyan to abandon the source world, abandon his reluctant feelings for his parents, and go to a future where he knows nothing.
She wants to be the guardian of civilization and witness the prosperity of other civilizations.
More than a hundred years later, twelve-year-old Heze and Weisheng made a different choice.
So, in the future, the North Ice leaves the greenhouse and goes to the future alone.
Perhaps from 2028 onwards, she no longer belongs to any era, and no longer belongs to anyone.
After hearing his grandmother's words, Kazusawa smiled and said very brightly, "How come, I will definitely stay at the cross base, won't I." ”
