5 [Jiang Lian's perspective]

In the end - what happened.

Why is this happening?

From the streets to the end of the streets, everything that can be seen is in ruins.

The tall buildings that had been standing all collapsed.

"Hongyuan——? Where are you—"

Dead silence, silence, and after a while, I vaguely heard the sound of sirens.

Su Hongyuan couldn't be found, and Qin Qin didn't know where they went.

The fighting seems to have stopped. At least there was no sign of a fight again.

"Hongyuan ——?"

I crawled out of the rubble and looked around.

The building to the west - a dark green glow, the color I've seen before. It was the color that Su Hongyuan shone with when she used the [Book of Life].

“……”

I walked towards the light source.

"Wow-"

The ground suddenly collapsed in a large chunk, and I was on the verge of falling.

On closer inspection, it turned out that the bottom was empty.

"...... this?"

I freed up my strength and carefully pushed the wall away, revealing a huge basement underneath. And the dark green light emanated from here.

I jumped down and found erected steel bars everywhere. Each bar is a full three meters long.

"What's going on......"

The light became more and more intense, but there was no hope or warmth of life at all, as if it was just pure, cold light.

The hairy sensation rushed to my bone marrow, I brushed aside the rubble, and then I felt 'droplets' of water dripping onto my head.

I tested it with my hand, but what I saw was a touch of red.

When I walked in, I looked up, and I saw a picture of disappointment—

Su Hongyuan's chest, abdomen, and even thighs were all pierced and propped up by erected steel bars, and her head followed gravity, like a lead ball bound by a rope, her hands hung down weakly, her lips and eyes were closed, and the red blood flowed down her arms, piling up on the ground like stalactites.

“…… Eh - Su Hongyuan. ”

I called.

"Don't sleep—you're the god of life."

I shuddered, but there was no response, of course.

Dark green light gathered on the book of life.

The book of life is like an abandoned child, discarded in a pool of blood.

I picked up the book of life, and the page that naturally opened clearly read—

The fourth generation of the god of life - Su Hongyuan (death).

It turns out that four generations have passed since the god of life.

I sighed.

"I obviously gave me the power to die, but I turned out to be so vulnerable."

I said with a wry smile.

"The God of Life cannot be resurrected, only soulless human beings, and - herself."

An unfamiliar voice came from behind him.

A woman in a straitjacket stood behind her, armed with a modified rifle and estimated to be 25 years old.

"You ......"

"I am a member of the Hong Kong Association. - Xu Yexin. ”

"Hong Kong...... Yes. ”

It's the name again.

"So you made the siren?"

"Well, the police and the Hong Kong Council, sorry we're late."

The woman apologized, and then approached Su Hongyuan.

"God's gift is always so ironic - there is always a fatal flaw behind superiority, and this is the law of this world."

“……”

I didn't know what to say, so I lowered my head and sighed.

"I remember that the god of mind qi once said that the god of life will give [extraordinary] abilities to his beloved."

“……”

Hui Yexin of the Hong Kong Club didn't seem to understand what I was saying.

"She gave me the ability to die—is there any evidence that I am [beloved]."

"Maybe."

"The beloved—can you save her in turn?"

I said to myself.

I don't know where the confidence comes from.

I'm ashamed of myself for thinking like that.

“…… I'll move it out first. ”

Xu Yexin said that looking at her like this is not a solution.

There was a noise nearby.

"Is anyone else around here?"

I asked.

"Ahh

Bang ——!。

The wall blocking the basement passage was pierced, and behind the smoke was a tall, flat-headed man.

"Arbor! Be careful—we'll die if we collapse twice. ”

Xu Yexin shouted dissatisfiedly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry—"

The man said embarrassedly, and then walked towards us.

He was holding a young girl in his hand - the girl's body had been destroyed in a large area, and wires and steel were exposed in the destruction. I can also recognize that this is the robot that has been following the Nian Qi God all along, 'Seven'.

"It's ......"

"That guy's [robot]."

The flat-headed man said.

"Can she still run?"

"The degree of destruction is too great, and it is estimated that it will be difficult, but at least the memory chip can be removed."

"In this humanoid robot, the memory chip and the body are connected, and theoretically cannot be changed."

"That's true, but her body is too damaged to be usable, and if she breaks it down into parts and scans it, she should be able to recover most of her memories. It's just that it can't be synthesized anymore. ”

"Well, that's the way it is. You move back first. ”

Ye Xin sighed.

Subsequently, we took out Su Hongyuan's body together and moved it to the road.

"What to do with the Book of Life."

"Leave it to the 'Hong Kong Association' for safekeeping, this kind of thing is really a double-edged sword."

“……”

I flipped through the Book of Life, looking for chapters related to Beloved, and after some searching, I finally saw the relevant records.

After a brief reading, I closed the book.

"But for now, I'm going to borrow the Book of Life for the time being."

I quickly made up my mind.

Perhaps—

All along, I have relied on Su Hongyuan.

I just want to create memories to remember - until I actually die.

I can't save everyone, not even the god of life.

Pure scruples about small families, selfish people - maybe it's me.

How many times can you see the blue sky in your life?

When we look up, we see a world that we can't touch.

What is hidden in the universe and does not want to be discovered—how many are there?

The advent of the world is a coincidence, or an intentional arrangement.

The more you try to explore, the more you will find that the world is bad. Ordinary life, the same pattern, your own small luck, can not change the world, can not discover the world, but can change your own way of life.

There is nothing wrong with this, and there are no complaints, and some people will think that it is a manifestation of the lack of responsibility of the widows of small countries. But it's true that for me, living my own life is already a blessing.

should have lived an ordinary life, and ended his life ordinarily.

But her presence made me decide to change something.

I just want to create memories to remember - until I actually die.

And how much time do I have, and what do I mean by memories?

Everything is unknown. However, based on my heart, in the dark, I still agree with Su Hongyuan's wish.

Her wish was not naïve, was it naïve—maybe.

But no amount of naivety and naivety can change the fact that we yearn for this picture.

A utopian world is impossible – but we always aspire to and try to create one.

Perhaps this is the root of human inferiority.

Foolish, and not knowing repentance.

It's emotions that make us impulsive and make us not know what to do.

Let us not know what it means to be inadequate.

A little achievement is complacent.

A little sweetness is complacent.

"Really—I want to create a truly valuable memory."

As described in the Book of Life—

"[Beloved] can use the [Book of Life] as a medium to sacrifice their [unusual] strength and exchange their 'qi' with each other."

I read.

"So I decided to give it a try-"

"Wait a minute - there is no qi in her body, and after you exchange with her, not only will she not get the power of immortality, but you will also disappear completely."

"Well—that's good, let her be a normal person again. [Immortality] is such a thing that should not exist in this world in the first place. ”

I said.

"Did you really decide you wanted to do this?"

"Well—because I was the one who [should have died] in the first place, and thanks to her, I enjoyed my life on earth for so long, and this time of life was more memorable than the last 18 years. I've got memories worth remembering. ”

“……”

"Now, it's just a matter of returning things to their rightful owners. Resurrect those who shouldn't die, and return those who should have died to nothingness—that's what she insists on. ”

I narrated, opening the spell page of the Book of Life.

Xu Yexin showed a gentle smile, nodded, and left Su Hongyuan's side.

My right hand rested on Hongwon's chest—

“dlerkosrkbmcyihiwlirqmrke……”

Will I regret it?

I don't know, but at least I don't regret it now.

“tircsrkivglyhiwlirkqmrkpmpmerk……”

The dark green light enveloped me and Hirowon.

This time, I felt a different kind of warmth.

I think of many, many, many memories.

At least in the last moments of my life – I wasn't alone.

And memories keep me company.

“nmerkcyvirnmerwlirkqmrkhibmaerkfe。”

As I pronounced the last letter, my vision was surrounded by light.

Zizi

The sound of electricity rushed through my brain.

Before my eyes, there was nothing left.
