The terrifying heat completely evaporated the surrounding water.

After the explosion.

The towering Welsh building no longer exists.

There was a huge pit in the ground.

Everything was lost and buried in dust.

……

When Yang woke up, the first thing he saw was his roasted ...... Uh, offal?

"What the hell?"

He removed a string of intestines around his neck.

Then, he pulled a red-hot piece of metal out of his abdomen......

The sharp pain irritated his brain wildly.

As soon as the explosion occurred, he knew that he couldn't avoid it, so his first reaction was to find a cover.

Later, the violent energy generated by the explosion also buried him in the rubble.

Yang struggled in the ruins for a long time before he pulled half of his body out of the sand.

……

He felt pain in every pore of his body.

The clothes on his body were burned to shreds, and the protective equipment on the lower half of his body was melted, and it took a lot of effort to tear the deformed protective gear off his skin......

"Hiss......"

Yang took a deep breath.

He felt like his throat was full of dust.

Although the injuries on his body were serious, he had begun to heal and recover quickly when the magnetic device was no longer running, so Yang was not worried at all.

He was somewhat surprised when he saw the scene of the explosion around him.

Not a single building was intact or more accurate, razed within a radius of nearly ten kilometers around the blast site.

Nothing is above the horizon as far as the eye can see.

Everything on the ground turned into coarse sand, a kind of gray-black sand that smelled of burning and had a high temperature.

Yang limped to his feet.

For he saw a figure standing behind him.

At this time, the "sky" above was emitting a dazzling chaotic light, so Yang couldn't see the figure's face clearly for a while.

But he's the gray cloak he used to be, there's no doubt about that.

……

"That's it, it's over?"

Yang slowly walked over to the other party's side.

However, after seeing the other party's face clearly, Yang was stunned.

……

…

……

Everything around was annihilated in the explosion.

The golden pillar of light also vanished, and the entire crimson sky rolled like an upside-down sea of blood, as if it would pour down at any moment.

Some roaring sounds can be faintly heard in your ears.

It was like an explosion, it was like thunder, but it was calm, only the dust was rolling, and I didn't know where the continuous muffled noise was coming from.

……

…

A crimson glow shone on the earth.

Two survivors of the explosion stand on the ruins.

It took Yang a long time to come to his senses.

As he took some miscellaneous gravel from his chest with his hand, he asked the other man:

"I'm sure you're not me, so...... Are you Luo? ”

……

At this time, the person standing in front of Yang, his gray cloak had been burned in the explosion, so the face that had been hidden under the hood all this time was naturally revealed.

Yang used to think that this guy would be himself six years later.

But something doesn't feel right.

It wasn't until now that he saw the faces on the other side that Yang understood why he felt something was wrong.

Because on the gray cloak, he could clearly perceive a ...... The feeling of old age.

And the reason why he asked him if he was Luo was because Yang was sure that the other party was two completely different personalities from himself.

If two yangs meet, it is definitely not the way to communicate before.

……

The person standing in front of the sun at this time.

Uh, how to say it.

They have the same facial features.

But there is a big difference.

To sum it up simply, the gray cloak is a fifty-year-old ......

His face is indeed Yang, but he is much older, and there are some wrinkles on his forehead and eyes like knives carved out, which is thinner and colder than Yang.

And he always had a vertical scar on his eye, the scar ran through his pupils, and the eyeballs inside were gray......

He was blind in one eye.

There was also a deep knife mark on the left side of his head, and the terrifying wound was like someone had cut off his skull with a sharp blade.

After the cloak was burned, he was left with a tattered single coat on the upper half of his body.

The numerous scars on his body were exposed, and not an inch of skin was intact.

Yang looked at the familiar and strange guy in front of him in a daze, as if he saw the cowboy in his impression, the head of the underground mercenary with a scar on his face, a broken veteran......

……

Yang held back for a long time before he said:

"It's miserable, it looks like I haven't grown much taller since I was seventeen."

“……”

The man standing in front of Yang pouted his lips and glanced at Yang lightly with his only left eye that he could still use.

Although he is a little taller than Yang, he really is not much taller.

……

Faced with an old version of himself, Yang felt a little weird.

This was different from the scene when he had a conversation with Luo before, when the two of them were just in a conscious exchange, not like now.

A living "self" stands in front of itself.

It's an indescribably weird feeling.

"Don't tell me, I'll become your virtue in 2026, then I'll be aging too fast." Yang said to the other party.

"I said that the current point in time is 2026, but I didn't say that I am a person at this point in time." The other shook his head and looked at the scarlet sky.

"Then are you Luo or not?" Yang asked.

"Me?" The old man touched his forehead, and the corners of his mouth moved:

"I don't know who I am......"

"Uh......" Yang narrowed.

"So, now, I'm meeting my old self at another point in time, that's what you mean?"

"Sort of." The old man nodded.

"Well, at least it's enough to know that I didn't die young because of the symbiote." Yang nodded.

Although all this in front of you makes it difficult to understand in a short period of time.

But Yang's life is like this, every day is filled with a bunch of unexplained things, and he has long been used to it.

……

"So, after destroying that thing, what do we do now? It should be over, right? Yang looked at the huge pit behind him.

"The end?"

The one-eyed old man glanced at Yang.

"No ......"

"The battle has just begun......

……

At this moment, the sea of scarlet blood in the sky began to crumble.

And the muffled roar that had been lingering in my ears gradually became clear as the sky shattered......

……

…
