The sunlight seemed to be trying to penetrate the sand and dust in the air, and the footless man was sweating profusely, and he stood with his shovel in his hand and stood to rest.

The woman stepped on her mechanical legs, walking diagonally from side to side, as if she was very unskilled, but she always maintained the balance of the iron cup in her hand.

But when she walked in front of the man, she still stumbled over, and the man immediately supported her, lowered his voice and reprimanded, "Be careful! That's water! Come here, you'll die if someone sees you spilling water!"

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." The woman's face was full of guilt, "But if you work hard, you have to replenish water, this is what the first generation himself said."

"The first generation is such a good man." The man sighed, took the iron cup, and drank the rest of the water, "She can completely occupy the paradise, if she is alone, the remaining resources will be enough for her to enjoy a lifetime."

"I don't quite understand, is the well of Paradise really going to dry up?" The woman whispered, "I feel like there's a lot of ...... in there I really want to taste what the water tastes like......

"It's not like you haven't drunk in the virtual world.

I'm not lying to you, drinking water is addictive here." The man continued to dig a hole with a shovel, "Fortunately, after finishing this project, I can go back to the virtual world, otherwise every time I drink water, I feel guilty in my heart."

The well......

Of course, you alone feel a lot, but if you think about it, if someone takes a sip of water out of curiosity, everyone else will definitely drink it too.

If people return from the virtual world to the real world, the well will not be able to hold up for even a day......

"Is it really meaningful to do these things?" The woman looked at the corpses beside the pit in the ground and sighed, "When everyone goes to the space station, no one will return to this world, let alone come here to pay their respects."

"Shhhh The man used a shovel to push the body into a deep pit and bury it with earth, "The first generation is right, we are human beings, and no matter what the world becomes, we should not lose our humanity."

The woman looked up thoughtfully, at the men who dug holes every few meters, and at the prime of life transporting corpses back and forth, as if speaking to the air.

"Old Deng, I'm going back in the afternoon."

"Afternoon?" The man stopped what he was doing, straightened his back and said, "Didn't you say we would go together? You ......."

"It doesn't make sense." The woman half-jokingly said, "Maybe we don't know each other in the virtual world, and I want to go back sooner."

I always feel like my family has gone back to wait for me."

"That's right." The man smiled a little awkwardly, he looked at the woman's mechanical legs, and said solemnly, "I haven't officially congratulated you on getting your legs, besides, thank you for the water."

The woman nodded politely to him, turned and walked away in the sand.

The man looked at her back, a little distracted, and when the woman walked away and disappeared completely, only a hazy sand and dust in the air remained.

Suddenly, the light of a searchlight turned on in the dust, and the voice of the first generation came from the loudspeaker:

"Thank you guys, please speed up the progress and complete this work within a week, this is my personal request, because I have promised my family in the virtual world that I will be home in a week!

If one day in the future, someone here accidentally wakes up from the virtual world, I hope you can still remember what I'm saying now.

We are our kind, we are human beings!

Remember the tragedy that Paradise brings us, and never kill another kind! The reason why I have asked you to bury your bodies in this place is to tell those who have worked here that what you have done, the hope you have left here, is not meaningless.

We buried the corpses of our kind, so as to inform the earth, to inform the vast universe:

Humanity did not lose and will always be united!

The well of paradise, we would rather than that

May it dry up naturally, and not shed a drop of blood for the sake of scrambling!"

"Humanity didn't lose!" The man raised the shovel above his head and shouted loudly.

The people shouted together, "Humanity is not losing! and will always be united!"

Roland closed the microphone and let out a long sigh.

"What's wrong? You've said it very well." Athena took the microphone and turned off the searchlight next to her.

"Humans don't lose ......" Roland looked in the direction of the shout and muttered a little self-deprecatingly, "If they knew, I was just stalling for time, because the data of many worlds in the background has not been fully recovered, and I am afraid that they will compete for the resources of the paradise during this time and kill each other again."

If they knew all this.

I don't know what the mood will be."

"You're doing it for their good, too." Athena said calmly, "In another three or five days, the data in the backend will definitely be restored.

What's more, I think it's meaningful."

"Does it make sense?" Roland raised an eyebrow, "What was once a [new home] is now a cemetery?"

Athena looked at the gate where the railroad tracks extended not far away, with a sign saying "New Home".

She sat on the cuboid-shaped megaphone and said, "Actually, when [New Home] was first established, it was really not to play tricks on the people of the Ten Thousand Tracks Realm.

My father pinned his hopes here, and he also sent many scientists from [Paradise] to help develop crop seeds that had been tenacious in history.

The virtual world was originally just a backup plan, but as time went on, the idea of a [new home] seemed to be becoming less and less reliable."

Roland looked at Athena's long golden wavy hair and asked, "Athena, what kind of person is your father in your heart?"

Athena was silent for a long time, and finally suddenly laughed, picked up the megaphone and turned around and said, "Roland, I will never take revenge on you."

"What if you could do it?"

Athena stood still, she turned her back to Roland, took a deep breath and said, "Yes!"

Roland raised the corners of her mouth, she had almost killed Athena's family, and if the other party said no, she might show the short knife hidden in the cuff.

But now, she just watched Athena's back drift away, bent down to pick up the searchlight and microphone on the ground, and quickly chased after her, jokingly, "Wait for me for a while, the original leg will go faster, right?"

"Can I consider this to be the repression and ridicule of the enemy after the victory?"

"Of course, it's your freedom to think whatever you want."

"Why did you ask me that question?"

"So what's the answer? You obviously want to say it, don't you?"

"Stubborn, violent, selfish, manipulative, full of lies, scheming, and inhuman." Athena walked briskly.

"And you want revenge? Is it worth it for that kind of person?"
