If you encounter something like this, this is the moment...... If......

What would you do if it was your brother? My brother used to be my target; It is also the ideal that I have always dreamed of; It is the meaning of my efforts.

And now he's not here, he's not in front of him, and of course there's no way to ask him what to do at such a time.

But there was already a mess in front of me, and even the scenery I saw gradually began to fall apart, and the world I saw was also shattering and crumbling little by little......

There seemed to be a real scream everywhere......

There is no doubt that the cabin has long been in chaos, as if it were a pot of porridge!

Yet even so, we still don't know who is responsible for this situation.

Why are they so haunted, and what are the reasons for this?

I don't know, at least so far, no one knows why.

Everywhere there was the sound of shattering, collapsing......

And Vane was stuck in the corner of the right side of the ship by the huge, already broken in two, and couldn't move—

And no matter how hard she struggled, the response she received was the pain that became more and more intense as time went on......

That feeling is making her dizzy right now!

It was as if in the next second, the consciousness that was about to be completely broken.

Not only that, but the body doesn't get enough air at all, which means it's very difficult to breathe......

And now, coupled with the weight of the two huge stone slabs on her back, she could only fall to the ground at this moment......

The corners of his body twitched as if he couldn't bear the pain.

"You don't care, do you?! I'll get you out now! ”

Maze finally made it to Vane's side, and he was even more anxious after witnessing the amount of bleeding in Vane's abdomen-

"It's not good, it's bleeding too much......!"

But he alone could not have done such a thing—

If you want to stop the bleeding, you have to get rid of this terrible condition...... However!

Of course, he knew this obvious truth better than anyone else, but it was impossible for him to understand it better than anyone else......

But if he just does nothing, he can't accept it!

"Yes, I know, I know it's stupid, but I hate sitting still and waiting to die!"

After making up his mind, he saw that he tried again and again, until he was sweating profusely.

However, the impossible will not change in the slightest because of his drilling......

“...... Enough is enough, already ......"

Vane shook his bloodied hands in the blink of an eye, and said as if resigned to his fate.

"Don't give up, didn't we say we'd go back together?!"

Then I saw his tearful eyes. I don't know when that sight was already soaked.

"I'm sorry, but there's probably no way to do it, right? Instead of this, you hurry up and escape from the emergency escape pod with the big guy! ”

As many people as possible must be given a chance to live before the situation becomes irretrievable!

However, there is no limit to the tools available to escape, and a trade-off must be made......

"Is this for me to leave you alone? If that's the case, I don't! ”

Sure enough, even after so many years, this kind of place of his has not changed as always......

- The last "don't" was almost desperately shouted, and that was undoubtedly his mood at this moment.

"This is my last order, get out with everyone!"

The last command? If that's the case, that's too cruel, right?

On the other hand, Vane is also serious at this moment......

It's just that now she lowered her head, and there seemed to be no expression on her face covered with blood.

- That's because she understands that the so-called feelings will only become an obstacle at this time, so she does her best to give up all feelings in the blink of an eye.

But that's just a lie.

If she could be saved, she would certainly want everyone to be saved.

But this is nothing more than an overly naïve and pedantic ideal......

No one can do that...... Even if he really is the hero depicted in fairy tales.

"Hurry up, I'm running out of time!"

As soon as the words fell, the entire space was hit like a stormy wave, and it shook even more, as if there was a danger of capsizing anytime and anywhere!

If you continue to hesitate, it will really become irreparable......

"Hurry up...... Brother, he'll leave it to you......"

"Matz!"

All around, there was a constant fall of rubble and dust, like a downpour......

"Don't hesitate any longer, if you delay any longer, everyone will die without a place to bury!"

Finally, in the midst of that slap-and-face rebuke, he obeyed what seemed to be what really seemed to be the last order—

With a voice that is almost desperately squeezed out between his teeth......

"I ...... I see! ”

Immediately afterward, I saw him quickly get up, run to the console that had already overturned, and pull out the escape pod hub that was within reach!

But in the face of the button that seemed to be condensed by drops of blood, he didn't dare to press it from beginning to end.

Is this really the right thing to do? Is there a sacrifice that has to be sacrificed to achieve the goal......? ”

Behind him, there was a constant sound like a ghost crying wolf—what was that?

He didn't understand, and he didn't dare to look back......

Because he understands that once he really turns back, his enlightenment at this moment will definitely be in vain!

However, despite this contradiction, Maz finally pressed it!

Because, if you don't press it, you can't do it-

Your own indecision will only implicate more people......

That's a mistake you can't make.

- "Everyone, run to the escape pod!" Come on!! ”

Immediately afterwards, he took the lead in channeling the panic, as if he had become a scattered crowd.

Fortunately, now, everyone's mood seems to have gradually stabilized-

"Adele, quickly airdrop the mechs in the storage bin to the outside and convert them to automatic operation mode! Only those bodies must not be lost! ”

"Yes! I understand! ”

However, just as she was about to start the operation, the ship itself reversed and capsized 180°!

This instantly caused the two of them to hug each other!

"Sorry! I'm leaving!? ”

However, before she could finish her sentence, she was pushed away by Mads! She didn't even have time to figure out what was happening in front of her.

"What?!"

And when she finally understood what she was seeing, half of Maz's body had already been smashed with blood by the huge and heavy cables and console shards!

Sure enough, it's because of your own fault?

The scene in front of her suddenly made Adele stunned......

"Why?"

She couldn't understand why that person would take such an incredible action for herself......

"Why? I'm just an inconspicuous ship operator, and there are as many substitutes as there are, why would you do it for me!? ”

In this regard, Matz's explanation sounds so natural -

"It's just because your body moves faster than your brain, don't care! Compared to this, the liberating operation of the body is left to you, Adele! ”

"Yes! I would have done it even if I risked my life! ”

However, she knows better than anyone that it is now difficult to rely on AI programs to achieve complete liberation of the body.

At this moment, the only thing I can rely on is technology and experience-

Yes, as incredible as it sounds, it does have to be done purely manually to try to complete all the operating procedures.

And there is no room for negligence in the whole process......

"When all this is done, I'll be sure to take you out with me!"

Immediately after making such a promise, he did not hesitate to run to the manual console at the stern of the ship......

Then he was engrossed in the operation that seemed to be a game of life and death.

"You can't fail, you must not fail, once you fail, everyone here will die without a place to bury!"

"Calm down, calm down!"

She reminded herself over and over again......

At this moment, cold sweat broke out on Adele's forehead, because he probably never dreamed that one day he would carry the lives of hundreds of people without hesitation, right?

But apparently such responsibility brought him incredible pressure.

- "Can't fail, can't fail!" ”

At this moment, he repeated this sentence, and the unprecedented tension also hit one after another like a stormy wave!

There is even the illusion that you can't breathe.

However, the illusion was only an illusion all along, and so far his operation has been nothing short of leaky.

It's just smooth......

After all, I've done the same thing hundreds of times.

If it can continue, it will naturally get closer and closer to the ultimate goal!

However, at this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the deck under his feet!

At the same time, the power of the lighting system in the ship has become extremely unstable almost at the same time!

"How so!? Is it so fast? ”

"In other words, they have at least invaded the power generation control room and are eating away at the electricity little by little? If that's the case, I'll have to speed up! ”

At this time, the crowd in the escape pod was gradually enveloped in uneasiness and apprehension-

"Damn! What the hell is the purpose of these guys?! Why did you target us from the very beginning? ”

There is such a hateful whisper -

And at the same time, there is

- "Mom, can we be saved?" ”

A voice like this consumed by fear.

"It's okay! You will definitely be saved, you will definitely be saved, and besides, if it is really a last resort, your mother will definitely protect you. ”

"So, don't worry. Nothing to be afraid of! ”

However, everyone knows that as time goes by, everyone's faith is being worn out.

Anxiety and fear are spreading throughout the space at an ever-increasing rate......

"There are 20 seconds left before the final and complete liberation command is executed!"

And at this moment, Adele finally breathed a sigh of relief! "Everyone, just hold on for another 20 seconds—"

Suddenly, her words came to an abrupt end...... There was no warning at all......

- Before she could finish her words, her body was mercilessly pierced by a sharp object without warning!

Blood was splattered all over the ground in an instant!

“！”

And when she realized this, she didn't even have time to struggle......

"Why is this happening?"

However, at this moment, no one bothered to answer her question-

looked at the body that was almost neatly poked into a hole......

She actually laughed!

Because, at least the work is done, isn't it?

"What are you doing in a daze, close the hatch!"

"If even this area is taken over by those guys, we're done!"

Someone reminded them, and they didn't even care about mourning, so they locked the heavy hatch without hesitation!

Then came the roar and loud bang that seemed to be overturning the river and the sea!

And then, I'm afraid it's the sound of them hitting the hatch?

Again and again, under the impact and the knocking as if Mount Tai was overpowering......

Countless cracks and cracks appeared in the hatch in the blink of an eye!

- I can't hold it anymore!

"Shhhh Do you have to kill them all before you give up?! ”

In such an emotional vortex, everyone can only huddle together......

And try to stay away from the hatch as much as possible, but the already tight space soon becomes irreversible!

At this time, a voice suddenly came like a glimmer of life-

"The tactical aircraft is completely liberated and switched to automatic operation driving mode!"

Immediately encouraged by the voice, they opened the hangar reserve passage directly below the escape pod.

"Get out of here, there's no way to stay here anymore!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a roar like a raging fire everywhere!

And there is no doubt that it is the death knell that announces the destruction of the death knell!

However, at this moment, a little girl let go of her mother's hand as a matter of course, and ran alone to the main passage of the ship, which was full of ruins and rubble.

"Isabel, what do you want to do? Come back soon!? ”

However, the little girl ignored her mother's hoarse cries, and went straight to where Vane was!

And now she is already in a dying state. Even his eyes began to blur......

"Stupid, what are you doing!? Get out with everyone! Leave my sister alone! ”

Despite her best efforts, she tried to persuade her to give up countless times......

The little one, however, seems to be more stubborn than he is; More persistent——

"If you don't run away together, you can't do it! And sister, you helped me too! ”

However, you have to know how to give up at this time......

However, that is obviously only an "adult" way of thinking.

- However, her so-called help was nothing more than helping her get rid of three idle ruffians when she went out on the street a week ago......

In my own opinion, this is not something to remember. Anyone would do it if they were different......

It's just such a trivial matter, but I didn't expect her to keep it in her heart or something......

Too silly, right?

"Huh? Where did the chick come from, but not to spoil our brother's interest......"

"Don't ......!"

"It's been a few days since my grandmother touched a woman, and today I happened to meet a pair of lonely, so hurry up and flash aside!"

And the reason why such a shameless guy appeared is only because......

At that time, the world had been ravaged and devastated......

There is no longer any self-discipline and legal constraints.

It is the norm for everyone to be at risk.

"Or do you want to stay and play with us?"

As soon as the words fell, those people immediately showed a dirty smile as if they couldn't wait.

"How? Woman? ”

Immediately afterwards, he also moved his hands and feet to Vaane, as if he was dissatisfied.

Really, or is it really "not understanding anything"?

"Okay, but what will happen to you at your own risk?"

"In that case, can you promise me to spare this child and her mother? If you say yes, I can consider acceding to any of your requests. ”

Undoubtedly, how could they let go of such a good thing?

Although there was some surprise how this guy could agree so quickly, such a good thing is unwanted!

"Get out of here!"

- Let's go!

Immediately after that, Vane motioned for them to leave quickly.

"Don't be in a hurry!"

After that, she knocked out a hand that wanted to get close to her body in the blink of an eye, while continuing her vivid acting skills-

The pedestrians around were almost dumbfounded......

"There's too many people here, shall we go there?"

Vane was referring to a dark alley, of course.

"Those three people are really fat? What do you think? ”

"Impossible, right? Are they really crazy? ”

"If you want me to say, those idiots don't know how to do such stupid things......"

"Hehe, wait and see! It's hard to eat! ”

Then, as if expected, the moment the words fell......

From the dark alley, there was a scream like a ghost crying wolf!

"Look, I'm right, right?"

Then, the three of them limped out with their crotches covered!

"Get out, don't let me see you again!"

Immediately after, the crowd burst into cheers......

- It's just one such thing, and I almost forgot about it.

Unexpectedly, she remembered it clearly.

Then she tried to move the huge pillars and rocks that were pressing on her......

However, no matter how hard he tried, he was ruthlessly proven to be in vain.

"Run! If you keep going, you'll die here! ”

At this moment, Maz suddenly used his last strength to break open the stone slab that was pressing on him!

"What an unpersuaded little ghost. Do you understand what you're doing? ”

Of course she understood...... And the reason why I did it was just to repay the favor......

Then I saw him face the fire that was burning more and more, and rushed straight to the two of them desperately.

"Maz, this kid is asking you, you must escape with her!"

This time was different from before, he accepted it silently without saying anything-

"Is this also an order?"

And in this regard, Vane denied it without thinking-

"No, it's just my personal request. But you can also think of it as an order. ”

"I see!"

At this moment, however, he was confronted with a sea of fire that seemed to stretch endlessly, and even the same bottomless smoke made people uncomfortable.

But he had already decided: no matter what stood in front of him at this moment, he would not hesitate to step over!

"Please?"

Finally, the last thing that drifted into my ears was still this sentence......

Madz wondered how she managed to accept this result willingly.

At the same time, he didn't know why she made such a decision. However, since she has been entrusted, she must not live up to her expectations!

"Hold on, we've got to go...... Child. ”

"Hmm!"

This time, Isabel, who was held in Maz's arms, seemed very quiet.

Why?

Maybe even she knew what was going to happen next, right?

So now is by no means the occasion to be willful.

But now there is one of the most critical ones; The toughest problems are not solved......

And it's clearly to the point of burning eyebrows.

And that's—

At this moment, there are no more airframes left on the ship for escape!

So, I can only hold her and jump down and try it out!

As for where it will fall...... Resign yourself to fate, right?

"Now, if your uncle were going to smash the window and run away now, would you be afraid?"

However, her answer was surprisingly unhesitating......

"I won't be afraid!"

Then, after receiving such an answer, Maz did not hesitate to pick up a stone of moderate size and weight—

Without thinking, it quickly smashed through the protective glass that was within reach!

"Ready to jump?"

As soon as the words fell, he noticed that the surrounding area of the ship at this moment seemed to be wrapped in a thick layer of black mud......

And it's still spreading over time!

"This situation is terrible no matter how you look at it...... Then again, what the hell is that? ”

I'm afraid that no matter what it is, you can't touch it, right?

Unexpectedly, at the moment when he was puzzled, a pair of huge jaw pincers burst out of the blind corner and suddenly nailed him firmly to the outer wall of the ship!

"What?!"

"Sure enough, I should have thought it was you guys!"

Immediately after, he stared at the beast in front of him with its mouth wide open......

Luckily, the kid had been thrown above deck before that could happen......

At the same time, I realized that maybe this was the last face I saw before I died.

And the irony is that this guy is not even human......

"So, are you bastards planning to treat me as your lunch?"

To be honest, that's a bit redundant at this point......

"Even if that's the case, I'll leave it to you, to be honest, my life is worthless......"

- But! Can you spare this child, she is innocent no matter what!

In the end, there is a natural idea of pleading with the enemy......

In the blink of an eye, even Maz himself wondered if his head was still normal.

But if you don't; If there was any other way, he would not have been able to try such a fool's possibility.

Because, they are beings who cannot communicate and communicate......

Like hairy beasts that drink blood, humans are at best food in their eyes.

And now I am so stupid as to try to communicate and talk to such an existence, I really can't save my home......

But at this moment, he couldn't think of any other way.

"You answered that!"

Of course, Matz knew from the beginning that such an attempt would not succeed, and that even if it did, it would not give him the answer he really wanted.

"I'm really stupid enough to be in front of me now, but the enemies who have been fighting each other all along......"

Immediately after that, faced with the bloody jaw that was approaching over time, Maz became tempted to give up his futile struggle......

"Sure enough, it's disgusting!"

And at this moment, Isabel was already fainting with fright.

"I'm sorry, maybe we're really going to die together......"

And just as the two of them were about to break the jar with such an idea, a bright light like a tongue of fire galloped straight forward!

Immediately afterward, the scout who was about to eat exploded and died!

"It's so easy to accept fate or something, it's not like you, right?"

There were voices and words that were familiar.

However, this does not mean the "end", but only the "beginning......
