Chapter 229: The World After Opening Your Eyes
……
……
When this world was left with no light, in the end, only this silver-haired young man was left to survive here.
"Finally, at the end, I finally felt that no one can accompany you to the end except yourself, and even in this world without light, even your own shadow will leave you, probably...... It's called loneliness. ”
The silver-haired man was expressionless all the time, muttering to himself, obviously he had lost all his feelings, but it was precisely because of the loss of everything that his words and deeds, including every word and every subtle movement, were actually full of intense emotions that were almost infinitely inflated to the point of collapse.
'Congratulations on making it to the end – this world, the last of humanity'
It wasn't a voice, but the silver-haired man could clearly hear someone, no, it was an indescribable being communicating with him.
As if he didn't understand the meaning of the other party's words, the silver-haired man smiled expressionlessly: "The last human in this world? It's so exalting to me, don't you think I'm still human? I, who have lost everything and cannot get it back, are alive...... In fact, it would have been equivalent to death a long time ago. ”
'Wishes. Humanity will not be able to sustain this far without desire, so you are still a living human being, and you have no right to deny it'
Be.
The silver-haired man once again recognized the reality that without an unforgettable desire to penetrate into the bone marrow, the fragile nerves of human beings alone would not have been able to get this far.
'Humans. Say what you want. That's the almighty wish that all miracles can be born'
Before he could finish listening, the silver-haired man laughed again, and replied mockingly: "However, even your so-called almighty wish will not allow the dead to be resurrected. ”
'This world exists according to the rules, so the real dead will not be resurrected in the true sense'
As he expected, the other party's ruthless answer was enough to shatter all his illusions, so what was the point of him holding on to this last step?
'Your existence is the meaning of existence itself. Greedy human, I will not grant all your wishes, but the opportunity to achieve miracles is always in your hands'
"So, what's the price I'm going to pay?"
'Eat the heart, your heart'
Behind this abyss is more greed than any being, compared to human greed.
……
……
In the early morning, the sky is dark, the outside is filled with the chirping of birds, and the air is filled with the pleasant scent of flowers.
Su Shu slowly opened his eyes and woke up, and there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth.
He slept soundly this night, and he had a sweet dream, dreaming that he successfully dominated the world, and dreamed that Xia Lan dressed as a maid obediently knelt at his feet and kept calling his master, and he happily took Xia Lan around the world, until he woke up from the dream, all his lust was ruthlessly shattered by reality.
"Finally woke up, is there any discomfort?"
Just when Su Shu was still savoring the aftertaste of the sweet dream, a concerned but still cold voice came from the bedside.
"Uh......" Su Shu turned his head a little dazed, only to see a girl in a black dress staring closely at the slightly stupid expression change on his face.
It's actually ...... Red pupils?!
"Huh?!"
Su Shu hurriedly got up and looked around, this was undoubtedly a temporary camp set up by the night attack, how could he come back here?
As a series of memories before falling asleep quickly poured into his mind, Su Shu's face suddenly became gloomy, that's right......
Seriously injured by Estes, he was saved by Ah Xin......
So, what about Ah Xin?
Did Ah Xin send him back?
Seeing Su Shu's doubts, Chi Tong explained lightly: "You were too seriously injured before, and your meridians were almost broken, and you can't be saved if you are treated one step later, and besides, you have been in a coma for more than a week." ”
"—No, no! More than a week?! It's impossible to ......" Su Shu didn't have time to sort out his messy thoughts, so he couldn't help but hurriedly ask, "Where is the person who sent me back?" Who sent me back?! ”
Red Pupil shook his head and said, "On the way back to the camp, I only saw you lying on the ground alone and uncared for, and you almost died, and no outsiders sent you back. ”
Don't......
Ah Xin's appearance was just a hallucination before his death?
Su Shu was stunned, but because his memory became a little blurry, he really couldn't remember what the situation was at the time, and in the end he could only suppress his doubts into his heart, and when he had the opportunity to meet Ah Xin in the future, he would have to catch that guy and ask him clearly.
As soon as he thought of this, Su Shu noticed that the soaked clothes on his body had been replaced with a clean and neat blue dress, and he couldn't help frowning and asking, "But then again, who changed the skirt on my body?" ”
The whole night attack knew that Xia Lan was a pseudo-mother, so which guy with bad taste changed his skirt? And it's a short skirt...... This feeling of emptiness is nothing short of insulting!
Even when he replaced Arya's real mother before, he had never tried this kind of insecure short skirt, although he really wanted to see Xia Lan look in a short skirt...... But it's definitely not him Su Shu to wear!
"Although you are not a real girl, after all, it is easy to cause misunderstanding. So, I helped you change it. Chi Hitomi admitted it directly, although she knew that the other party was a pseudo-mother, she didn't see any embarrassment on her face, but was serious, and her voice was surprisingly gentle: "You usually like to wear blue skirts, don't you?" Xia Lan, I remember you once talked about the meaning of the name, Lan means the waves of the sea, you especially like the feeling of facing the sea, it's great, and the sea is blue, so you like the color blue, I'm not mistaken, right? ”
I don't know.
Su Shu didn't know that Xia Lan still had this hobby, after all, he had been trying his best to suppress Xia Lan's memories and didn't want to be affected by Xia Lan's memories, so he usually only read Xia Lan's memories in battle and used them.
In fact, more than that, he instinctively didn't want to violate the other party's privacy, and as for what kind of psychology, he himself couldn't say.
"That's right...... What about Zhang Hao? ”
Su Shu suddenly remembered that Zhang Hao was still abandoned in the imperial capital by himself, facing the terrifying existence of Estes alone, although he didn't want to admit it, and he didn't care about Zhang Hao's life or death, but it was undeniable that his act of escaping from the battle was extremely selfish, even if he had a different position, he himself couldn't approve of such a cowardly and incompetent behavior, after all, no matter what, Zhang Hao and himself were fighting side by side at that time.
The result is obvious, Zhang Hao was caught by Estes, but with Xia Lan circling over there, Zhang Hao must have no worries about his life.
I thought that Chitong would more or less look down on himself who escaped from the battle because of this, but I didn't expect Chitong to approve instead: "Thanks to your foresight and summoning all the staff to dispatch, we can relieve Zhang Hao in time and return safely." However, now that he is not in the camp, he has officially joined the ranks of the revolutionary army and went to the front to lead the troops to fight. ”
“…… Is it? When Su Shu heard this, he unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, "It turns out that everyone is fine except for me." ”
"Nope."
The red pupil's voice was suddenly cold, and her tone was still trembling, but her face was still calm, but the aura that spread from her body even overshadowed the fragrance of flowers, making Su Shu feel inexplicably suffocated.
Xia Lan ...... Please bear with me what I want to say next...... Chelsea died ten days ago, Brand seven days ago, Hill three days ago, and Leonay was buried only yesterday...... Now, even the boss is unknown whether he is alive or dead...... By now, you and I may only be left in the entire night attack, and Zhang Hao has been arranged by the headquarters to fight the Imperial Army on the frontal battlefield. ”
He's dead......
All dead?
Such an unrealistic statement.
If it had been before, he would have been quite excited when he heard it, and it had only been a little more than a week that so many enemies had died? God help me!
However, now, looking at the thin and thin figure of the red pupil, no matter how hard she tried to pretend to be calm, the irrepressible emotions always betrayed her, and she could only tremble and read out the names of her dead companions and the time of death, which made him unconsciously clench his fists.
Moved by this sadness?
No.
Even Najeta has killed him, how can he care about the life or death of a group of killers?
Since I don't care, why is my mood still affected because of this? Still feel unpleasant or even depressed because of this?
I don't know.
Su Shu himself doesn't know, maybe it's mostly because he has read the original book, and there is still some instinctive pity for the characters in the plot.
After figuring it out, Su Shu slowly loosened his clenched fists and asked in a low voice, "I just slept for a while, what's the ...... All dead? Are you lying to me? But there's no reason why you're going to lie to me, so who did it? ”
The voice he made was heavier than he had imagined.
Maybe it's because he wants to see such an outcome, but the process is not what he wants, at least, all sins should be fulfilled by his own hands, and only then can he be satisfied.
