Chapter 31: Our Story
Blood-colored light waves spread out in Ruxia City, enveloping the entire sky, and the city below became a red world for a while.
"This is..."
At this moment, all the residents, soldiers, and mecha warriors in the five major districts of Xia City, including Qinghu and Luoting, all looked up, and the blood-colored sky was shrouded, and they couldn't say anything to themselves in shock.
"Monsters are attacking the city again?" Just when this thought was just born in their hearts, it was like the crystal wall barrier of Xia City, which suddenly cracked.
"Click!"
The sound of glass cracking was heard in the sky, but in the next moment, it was really broken!
"Whoa!"
Immediately, I saw that the red crystal wall barrier that shrouded the entire sky turned into fragments and points of light in the sky, like snowflakes, fluttering and falling, extremely magnificent!
At the same time, the crystal wall of more than 20 meters high on the outskirts of Area E has also begun to change, the original crystal city wall has faded, and there is no longer blue energy light, and it has turned into an earthy gray city wall!
"This is our Summer's Crystal Wall Barrier?" The residents of the city stretched out their palms one after another, and took the falling points of light and fragments in the palms of their hands, and for some reason, everyone suddenly felt a heavy weight in their hearts!
Just when the residents of the city bowed their heads and were silent, I don't know which corner, someone suddenly shouted excitedly: "Look at the sky!" ”
Suddenly, one to ten, ten to hundred... Quickly delivered to every corner of the city.
The residents of the city looked up again, looking at the sky that should have been familiar, but they were stunned.
The endless purple red sky, beautiful as a fantasy, the golden sun on the horizon sloping to the west, reflecting the purple cross halo, baking the earth below, the blazing light, through the dense layers of purple and white clouds, speckled and sprinkled down, like a ray of hope through the holes, shining on the city.
The wind blew gently, mixed with the earth and fragrance that had never been felt before, through the city walls, into the city.
At the same time, at this moment, everyone feels a lot more relaxed, as if they have been suppressed for too long and have been released.
To the east of Area C, in a wooded area in the town of Clear Lake.
"Is this the real sky of our Gravia?"
Nangong Yuchen stood beside the tombstone, also looking up at this strange sky.
"Hmmm! This is the real sky beyond the crystal wall! Angel came to his side, and then continued: "I heard that the land of the seven islands can see different skies! ”
"Seven islands are different skies?"
At this moment, Nangong Yuchen's heart trembled, and for some reason, those immature voices from his childhood suddenly came from his head!
"Hi Xiaochen! Let's grow up quickly! When the time comes, let's become mecha warriors together, get out of the summer, and go see other cities outside, okay? ”
This is the image in my memory, under the white clouds and blue sky, seven or eight children lying on the grass by the sparkling lake, looking at the sky beyond the beautiful valley.
"Cut! Liuyun, you're too unproductive, aren't you? When I grow up, I must become a mecha general and lead the soldiers to protect our Terran land! Kill all those abominable monsters! Then we won't have to live under the sky inside the crystal wall! The skinny little dragon closest to the lake said to Liuyun with a big grin.
As soon as the immature voice fell, Mu Qi, who was leaning against the big tree to enjoy the shade, spoke, and with a pair of clear eyes, he stared at Xiaolong and said, "Childish ghost! Do you still want to be a general? I see if you can become a mecha warrior or not, haha! ”
"Muki! How dare you laugh at me! The little dragon was so angry that he bounced straight off the grass, clenching his little fists tightly, as if others were questioning his dreams, which was something that annoyed him.
"Okay, okay~ Don't quarrel, when the time comes, we will all become mecha warriors together, we can do anything, as long as we can be with Xiaoxin, Sister Yi, Liuyun, Mu Qi, Xiaolong, Gehan, and Xiaochen, everyone will always be together, Belle is happy~" This is a cute and well-behaved girl like a doll.
"Hmmm! We'll always be together, and so will we grow up! ”
"By the way, Xiaoxin, Sister Yi, what are the dreams of the two of you?" Ge Han sat by the lake, constantly moving the surface of the lake with his feet, turned his head to look at Nangong Kexin and Gu Yixin and asked.
"We? Hmm~ Then become a powerful mecha warrior! Whoever bullies you, I'll beat him!" ”
"Haha..."
"Nangong Yuchen?" Angel saw that he was motionless in place, so she patted him on the shoulder and said, "Are you okay?" ”
"Uh-huh!" Nangong Yuchen came to his senses from his memories, and then quickly shook his head, indicating that it was okay, but his expressionless face was full of gloom.
At this moment, Yi An and Qingxue hurriedly ran over, and the two shouted from afar: "Nangong Yuchen, Angel, something has happened in the City of Science and Technology!" We're going back! ”
"Hmm!"
However, on the way back, Nangong Yuchen deliberately ran to the square where the town gathered, wanting to say goodbye to Gu Yixin's sister and brother, but when he saw the hostile eyes of the residents, he still retreated.
"Buzz!"
After the four of them got on the helicopter, they began to rush towards the science and technology city in Area A. As for the remaining mecha warriors in Clear Lake Town, they are responsible for the cleanup of the demon beasts and the aftermath of the residents.
On the plane, Nangong Yuchen and Angel sat in a row, Yi An and Qingxue sat in a row, and the four of them faced each other.
Yi An looked at Nangong Yuchen's gloomy face, opened his mouth several times, and finally couldn't hold back, and asked: "Nangong Yuchen, can you talk about the town... What's going on with the residents? ”
The sound fell, Qingxue and Angel looked at it curiously, as for Angel, although Angel knew about Nangong Yuchen, she didn't know the specific details, so she was also a little curious.
Looking at Qinghu Town, which was getting smaller and smaller below, Nangong Yuchen finally spoke: "I'm okay, don't worry!" ”
"Uh... All right! Yi An spread his palms helplessly.
Just when the atmosphere in the plane became a little dull, Qingxue suddenly sank her head and asked, "Nangong Yuchen, have you been to the outside world?" ”
Nangong Yuchen was a little confused by her sudden strange question, but unfortunately the calm head of Qingxue made people unable to see her expression clearly, Nangong Yuchen had no choice but to reply: "No!" ”
Hearing the response, Qingxue took a deep breath with some trembling tremors, and then continued to speak: "The outside world! ”
"In fact, in addition to the thirty-one cities of the four capitals and twenty-seven cities, there are also many small towns and villages in our human settlements! They are scattered around the city, and life is very free! You can walk around the land outside at any time, you can run far away to see different scenery, and you can live on this land all the time and without restraint! ”
"Isn't this kind of life very desirable and comfortable?"
Saying this, Qingxue suddenly raised her head and looked straight at Nangong Yuchen.
"Uh..."Nangong Yuchen was taken aback by her sudden question, especially looking at his eyes, which were slowly turning red, which made Nangong Yuchen ask with some worry: "You... Are you okay? ”
Qingxue shook her head, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her fingers, and then said in a trembling voice: "Yes, that kind of life is the life that the residents, soldiers, and mecha warriors in our city crave the most!" ”
"But do you know what they crave out there?"
"They long for the peace inside the crystal wall, and they hope that one day they and their families can live in the city and enjoy... The protection of the crystal wall, the protection of the mecha warrior! Because those days are the freedom that comes at the cost of life! There is no way that they have no crystal walls, no mechas, no means to protect themselves, and every time they are attacked by demon beasts, they can only hide from afar, watching their relatives, partners, and friends, and become food in the blood mouth of demon beasts......"
"It's better to say freedom than to wander! But helplessly, the land in each city is limited, and the number of residents is also limited, so being able to live in the city is the unattainable dream of every human being outside! Speaking of this, Qingxue seemed to fall into a painful memory, and her whole person began to tremble.
"And Yi An and I are from the outside world!"
"Qingxue..."Yi An, who was next to her, heard her say this, and immediately opened his mouth to stop it.
Qingxue didn't pay attention to his stop, but continued to speak: "Three years ago, twenty miles east of Ruxia, there was a small village named Jinglin! There are more than 100 residents living there! Although the population is small and life is relatively difficult, everyone helps each other and lives happily! ”
"In order to always guard against the invasion of demon beasts, the residents have come up with a way, that is, if they are over ten years old, they must take turns to post outside the village, so that as long as they find that there are demon beasts, the people of Fanggang will notify them immediately, and everyone will hide in the dug tunnels together, just like that, no one in the entire village has fallen into the mouth of the demon beasts for more than ten years."
"Over time, there are fewer and fewer demon beasts in the surrounding area, but considering the major event of more than 100 people's lives, this kind of thing has always been insisted on."
"Until one day, it was a boy and a girl's turn..."
"Although it's not the first time that the two of them have come to the post, they have never encountered a demon beast, and because it was night, they actually fell asleep on the tree on the way......"
"When I woke up the next day, I found that the whole village had been slaughtered, and there was no survivor, and all the relatives, friends, and friends I knew were mutilated by corpses, and just because I had slept for a while, but ...... Lost all your loved ones! This price..."
Speaking of this, Qingxue choked up directly, and even Yi An, who was silent next to him, had rare red eyes and trembled violently!
This time, after more than ten seconds, Qingxue stopped sobbing and continued:
"Whew! These two children are me and Yi'an! ”
And that's our story in the outside world!
