Chapter 4: The Moon Dances in the Sky
The cactus's rod also moved, but instead of catching the fish, he continued to tell everything in his heart.
"I am walking in solitary darkness, and I do not see the dawn. The starlight shows me the way, I walk between heaven and earth, and I know the warmth and cold. ”
"Bloom, bloom, the silently twitching soul of the Iron Body, you let me see, I lost myself in the ocean of humanity, with or without the guidance of angels, or lost the opportunity, the opportunity to be reborn, in the battles again and again, I picked up one life after another that should not belong to me."
"Is life my happiness? Maybe I'm already happy to be alive. The comrades-in-arms who disappeared beside them, their bodies mixed with the torrent of steel, bloomed the brightest light in the vast stars? Does this light come at the cost of death? I have no way of knowing. ”
The fat man listened to the cactus's remarks, and was very excited, he said, "The light of the dark space will only be released by the stars, right?" The stars are the masters of light, guiding us to the light in this bottomless darkness. ”
At this time, there was not a single fish in their baskets, and they put away their fishing rods, and left the moment after the sun set on the sea.
After a dark month, the cactus' armored body stepped into a bloody, insignificant war of despair and hope.
The cactus flew to a distant battlefield in the battleship he had acquired, and because the flight distance was too long, he had nothing to do. Subsequently, he fell into deep contemplation:
"Who will remember the lives lost on the battlefield, maybe just their families, who buried the withered bodies of soldiers in tears."
"It is their luck to be buried in the earth, how many innocent lives have been turned into powder and floated in the breathless sky in silence."
"Perhaps, my ending is like this, just like that, my friends, in the sinking and turbulence of the world, maybe you can still remember my looming outline."
"Every time, before the battle, I always look forward to my own death, is it because of my cowardice, is he my weakness? I was born in war, but I was afraid of war, and I was ecstatic in war, and I was angry in war. Tears, laughter, it seems, war is my life. ”
"But shouldn't life be beautiful? But it always reveals an eerie horror, horror until it is numb. Wake up in numbness, sink in numbness. ”
"Fall is a defeat in the face of fate. Fate seems to be in my hands, but until it is grabbed by the other hand, I have to spend my whole life trying to break free. After breaking free, I found that I was standing in the wasteland of life, the island of life. Survive on this isolated island and build your own kingdom, this land of nature, which is just my home? He is my everything. When I destroyed everything the cactus had created with my own hands, I found that my body had also withered. ”
"But I still have a soul, huh, a soul. This beautiful and cruel word is just a game after all. The virtual game is a garden of Eden, but the real game is the call of hell. ”
"Yes, I don't go to hell who goes to hell. Come, the war I hate, come, let me live and die, this is my last dignity. ”
When the cactus drove the mid-level battleship to the rendezvous at the battle assembly point, the cactus saw that the battleships like an asteroid belt had gathered.
Since the war had not yet begun, the cactus once again fell into deep thought:
"This is a scene that I have played in the 21st century. Is this just a game? A game that costs lives? Virtual and real, virtual games come from real games, it is a generalization of real games, but not sublimation. The virtual in reality is just a humorous lie. They also come at the same cost, time. ”
"Maybe only time is not a liar. War is a game, life is a game, and when I think like this, I become cynical again, maybe this can make me stronger. ”
"The main characters in anime (the anime industry has continued until the 330th century) are always the ones who don't want to be strong and become able to control their own destiny because of various opportunities and their own beliefs. Whenever I see this, I get excited and imagine if I can be like them. Perhaps, this is my anime plot. ”
"I always transform the characters I admire into my own spiritual motivation, and then complete these roles myself, even if it is spiritual, of course, there is no way to turn the script into deeds in reality, because the plot in the script seems a little funny once it appears in reality."
"But one thing is right, the cactus's willpower is constantly increasing, in other words, my mind is constantly getting stronger. Until, my willpower was manifested in battle, to overcome things that I had not been able to achieve before. ”
"Life is a game, but I can't play life because I can't."
"War is a game, but you can't play war because I can't."
Thinking of this, the cactus battleship suddenly received an order that interrupted his musings, and he returned to reality.
The cactus received an order that in this feigned war, it would be at the cost of the destruction of the battleship, and the soldiers had to hide in the rescue pod to escape for their lives before the battleship exploded.
At first, the earthlings and the KUD were just scuffling, and the pilots on both sides greeted each other on the screen, and then negotiated whose ship exploded and whose ship did not, and then drove the escape pod early to let the other party blow up.
But the dead man, because the drivers of the earthling side and the K side failed to coordinate well, they didn't have time to run away and died together with the props for acting.
Fortunately, the cactus didn't make such a joke with the K party, after all, it was his new ship, and he was reluctant to explode. Oh my God, the cactus has unknowingly picked up a little life again.
So, the fighting escalated, and the fighters on both sides stirred up emotions and began to besiege them.
Soon, the number of ships that exploded gradually increased. The Cactus's battleship was also attacked from all sides, and he dodged left and right, dodging one shell after another. Those shells hit other people's ships, and those ships instantly turned into steam, and oh my God, there was no blood in the killing, not even a single ash. It seems that cacti can't be called cannon fodder, what is it called, the cannon gas is good.
The cactus thought, how can this be good? The commander of the main battle between us and the K side must have a big head.
At this moment, a contact signal appeared on the communication screen of the cactus battleship. Could it be the brothers of the K side? No, they're already like enemies, so they won't come back to such a game. No, it's already a fight, so it should be our personnel from the cactus side. So the cactus connected.
It's fat.
The cactus said, "You're here too?" ”
The fat man said, "It seems that you don't have to be my ship's battlefield." Driving your own boat, cool, right? ”
Cactus: "No time for joking. As he spoke, another cannonball nearly hit the cactus. The fat man's battleship is also whistling on the lifeline.
Fatty: "You thought it was really a mistake to start the fight." ”
Cactus: "yes." Could it be that the commanders of both sides conspired?"
Fatty: "It was conspired by forces from outside the world, and they knew about our actions. They take advantage of the situation and want to split the alliance that we don't have yet. ”
The cactus was surprised and said, "Then what to do?" ”
The fat man said, "Wait for the instructions." ”
At this time, a beam of particle cannons was firing at the fat man's battleship, and the cactus fired the lightspeed antimatter cannon to blow up the battleship, but the particle cannon did not stop there, and the fat man also found out, sideways the hull, and avoided. We all broke out in a cold sweat.
The K-side warships around them found that the cactus, a guy who had never fired a cannon, had killed their companions at once, and they all concentrated on them, looking at the cannonballs that covered the sky, they had nowhere to hide.
They all closed their eyes in their respective battleships, but as a farewell, the cactus asked him anyway: "Fatty, what is your real name?" ”
The fat man's voice suddenly grew old, and he said, "The moon dances in the sky." ”
The cactus smiled and said, "It's still four words." ”
"After we found out that you are not a spy warship with out-of-bounds power, each of our guided missiles has re-set the trajectory and hit the spy warship with out-of-bounds power, and the battleship you just blew up is an out-of-bounds spy warship, which is very good." The first thing the cactus heard when it opened its eyes was simply not the opening words of the devil of hell to our coming to hell.
