Standing on the high ground behind the second line of defense, Lark looked down at the temple that had been turned into a large construction site. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe people are disassembling all the steel they can find, pouring it together with cement, and building a second line of defense in a narrow hole deep in Zion. This is also the last reliance of human beings.

He turned his head to look at the cavern where the ark was. This cave is between the first and second lines of defense. According to the plan, once the first line of defense is broken, the Ark will immediately set off and blow up the cavern. The second line of defense will also buy them more time to escape - Luck has always thought in the worst-case scenario.

At this time, Lark noticed that the children who had already boarded the ark and some warriors were coming out one after another.

"What are they doing here?" Lark cursed and walked towards them, not forgetting to give one last instruction before leaving, "Deploy a few cannons on this high ground." ”

Before anyone arrived, the sound came first, and Lark was still on the way, and his voice had already stopped the passerby. "What are you doing, go back to the ark."

One of the female crew members in the lead saluted and replied, "Amanda of the Ark 1 crew." The children were tired and scared, and I took them to their parents. ”

"Nonsense! These children must learn to face their fears and resist fatigue from now on. The attack of the machine army is ready at any time, and it is dangerous for them to scatter around their parents. Go back, all back! ”

The children were afraid of Rak, so they all tried to squeeze behind the female crew member named Amanda. The female crew member was young and had a round baby face, which showed off her graceful figure even when she was dressed in a wide combat suit. If it was a time of peace, she would still be a child studying in school. Now it is possible to die with a group of children younger than her.

"Mr. Commander, this is a rare opportunity to rest, let the children not take a breather." A kind voice came from behind Lac.

Lark turned abruptly and saw an old man with silver hair in a robe standing behind him, looking at the children with the same eyes as Captain Mifuan. This look almost made Lark give up his opinion, but at the last moment he still said ruthlessly: "If we don't dry up those machine pieces to the ground, we will never have a chance to rest." ”

Councillor Haman walked up to Lack and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Being alive is just a part of life. ”

Then he walked a few steps further forward to the children, smiled at them, and said, "All right, go back to your parents." We will have a big banquet in the evening, remember to come out and play. ”

"Banquet? There's a feast, oh, oh......" The children soon forgot their fears, and when they heard the feast, they cheered and ran away. The adults heard what they were saying and cheered in even more excited voices.

"Councilor Haman......" Lark stepped forward to stop in front of him.

Harman patted Rak on the shoulder again and said, "Feasts are part of life, my dear commander. Everyone has been working day and night for more than ten days. ”

After saying that, he left without looking back.

The staff officers around him waited until the councillor left, and came to his side and said, "Sir, at this time, we still have to organize banquets......

Lark stretched out his hand to signal him to stop talking, and he let out a sigh of relief as if he had let go of his burden, "Do what we should do, and don't judge the rest." ”

Lark still threw himself into the tedious and menial work of pre-war preparations, and still harshly criticized all the problems he saw, but he no longer shouted at anyone. Fighting was also a part of life, and he began to use this thought to soothe his overstretched nerves.

As he was running between the two lines of defense, a staff officer approached him and whispered a few words to him: "Sir, the captain of the Hundred Lands has returned from looking for Long Island." He didn't find anything. ”

Lark nodded, and after a brief silence, he said to the staff officer, "Let's announce Nagashima's death." ”

After the staff officer left, Lark fell into deep thought: Long Island is the crew of the Hades, and the Hundred Earth Eagle Cong has the right to judge him; However, he has been proven by many to be of great merit to mankind, and it seems that the decision on how to decide must be reported to the Parliament.

------------------------------------------

"I wish this beauty would last forever." As he stood on the altar, Lack's heart was filled with beautiful reveries.

It was an unprecedented gathering in Zion, where men, women, and children gathered in the temple. All the lights are turned on at this moment, and mankind in the last days has never enjoyed such light.

Long strings of torches were lit on the wings of the altar, and next to each torch surprisingly stood a beautiful maiden. The golden light of the fire reflected their spiritual figures against the walls, and black phantoms danced with the joyful flames.

The altar resembles the stage of an opera house, and the parliamentarians wear costumes that have never been shown before people. The high-ranking officers of the Defense Force and the captains of the flying ships also wore the most powerful uniforms, and their usually rock-like and cold expressions were now wearing soft masks. Eight tall and burly soldiers stood on either side of the altar with spears in their hands, their guns never so clean and mighty as they are today, and a little cold light on the tip of the bayonet shone brightly.

Lark looked around every corner he could see, and he wanted to imprint the beauty of the day in his mind forever, so that he could have a good memory at the last moment.

Councillor Haman, who stood in front to speak, wore a dark blue velvet robe with intricate white patterns on it. In Rak's opinion, if he took a staff, he really looked like an archmage. Now he is telling the heroic deeds of the defense in a loud voice:

"Yuto Nagashima, the great crew of the Hades. He used his God-given power to save more than 20 soldiers who fought for Zion and destroyed the first digging troops; He awakened Captain Sauron, and during the third attack of the machine army, he bravely broke through the blockade and stormed the city of Zion, protecting everyone here. ”

"We have God-given warriors, and countless warriors who have gone on to fight for humanity. We have died, the Artillery, the Jump, the Warrior, the Boxer...... And almost all of the Mecha Legions. But we're still standing here, we're still stubbornly building two lines of defense, and we've repaired more than half of our mech troops. We have many more warriors guarding this place at all times. ”

"Captain Mifuan, Captain Morpheus, Captain Hundred Lands, these people will always fight for Zion!"

Everyone's enthusiasm was thoroughly aroused by him, and the earth-shattering cheers almost woke up the entire temple, as if it was also excited by this celebratory explanation.
