035, Father and Son (II)

Everything in his eyes trembled violently, and Smoke Mamoru knew that he was about to leave this world.

He was wearing a yellow spacesuit, the color of Shurima, and the moment the rocket ignited, he heard a dull hum in the violent trembling, and then he felt himself being forced into position by a huge force.

With a fainting that grew heavier and heavier and darkness in front of him, it was as if he had a dream in which he was back at home.

At that time, he had just been discharged from the army, and he had done his duty to Shurima, and his wife was full of joy when she took him home, and they decided to have a child, and they believed that love was just as passionate as all young people.

Soon after, Siaret became pregnant, after which he saw the news of His Royal Highness's return, and he held a press conference that caused an uproar.

Twenty years ago, Yan Shou was not particularly young, and so was Siaret, they both lost their parents in that natural disaster, and grew up together, they had all seen the bright stars in their childhood, but the cruelty of reality made them dare not look up again.

When they grew up, the fear in their hearts had accumulated deeply, and Smokekeeper chose to go to the army to hone himself, and Siaret had been waiting for him to return.

Smoke Mamoru hopes that he can hone his state of mind among the bravest warriors of the Empire, and the fear of the starry sky has caused him great pain, as well as his lover, but he is powerless to change, and he hopes that the unborn child will not experience the same life.

But he was disappointed, and there was no place for Shurima to hide.

It wasn't until His Royal Highness the Prince's return that he saw the only firefly in the darkness, and he wasn't sure if the faint flame would be extinguished, but even the light of this drew him closer.

He was glad that His Royal Highness had accepted him, but he also felt guilty about his wife, Siaret was pregnant, and he could only make a promise to hold her hand when the child was born.

Only in her moment of extreme pain can she go back, because His Royal Highness the Prince's experiment on herself has succeeded.

What made Smoke Shou decide to stay was Azir's rite of passage, and the fireflies finally revealed his full form, shining like the sun, dispelling the gloom that had enveloped Shurima for many years, and planting the seeds of light.

Finally, this seed has begun to germinate, how can we bear it to be uprooted by despair again?

Smoke Shou woke up in a faint, and he opened his eyes groggily, only to be shocked by the sight in front of him.

The universe is still dark, but the stars that are set in the darkness like jewels, their little bits and pieces of light are not as bright as the sun and the moonlight, but the dreamlike tranquility and clarity are enough to ripple in a person's heart.

Looking at those twinkling stars, Yan Shou thought of his unborn child, wondering if his eyes would be so naughty?

And Siaret, how sad it would be if she couldn't see such brilliance.

Now that he had complete trust in the leader he followed, he realized what an important thing Shurima had missed over the years.

Now he had the same thought as the young men, what a pity it would be if we couldn't sail there all the time?

The rocket's boosters peeled off one by one, and in the end, the shell that wrapped the spacecraft also completely fell off, and they couldn't make a sound in the silent universe, and each time they fell off, they would ignite sparks in Shurima's atmosphere, and each time they fell off, the smoke guard became farther and farther away from this world.

The smoke guard shielded all communication bands except for the air defense base.

As the first person to fly into space, he was the forerunner of this new era, but he knew that what he was doing could not be known, and that the small ship that had just sailed out of the harbor could not withstand the storm.

Only a faint light could be seen in the sky on the land of Shurima, which was the last ignition of the ship, and the yellow ship had completely left Shurima's gravitational range.

Even passing by her moon, the technology gained from that Kamigawa spaceship gave Shurima's first spacecraft so high speed and sailing level that Smoke Mamoru didn't even have time to look back.

"Our information...... Weak...... You're leaving...... Range...... I'm sorry...... Goodbye......"

The signal from the air defense base was also cut off, and the smoke guard drifted in silence, accompanied only by darkness.

"Hmm...... At least I'm the first to go to heaven. ”

Smoke Shou took out a photo from his pocket and put it on the bridge in front of him, it was a graduation photo of him and Siaret, the two of them were wearing bachelor's uniforms, the girl Xiong hugged the tall boy, grinning presumptuously, but the boy rubbed his nose and looked shy.

"Wife, bless me, you have to pray that Your Majesty's side will finish the matter as soon as possible to save me...... To be honest, I still don't want to die. ”

Smoke Shou folded his hands and respectfully bowed to the photo, and then activated the accelerator.

Soon he saw the group of things, a dozen colorful space ships coming in the direction he came, most of them irregular shapes, looking like they were randomly spliced together with various parts.

But each of them was the size of one of Shurima's buildings.

The moment he saw them, a familiar sight appeared in front of his eyes, the sky was covered by a fleet of fleets, the ground was blazing, and there were screams and wails everywhere.

Yan Shou didn't have any nostalgia anymore, he didn't hesitate to open all the prohibitions of the spaceship, the fuel boiled instantly, and the roar of the engine reached Yan Shou's ears through vibration.

The yellow spaceship turned into a golden streamer and rushed forward, and of course the pirates on the fleet saw this scene, they really couldn't understand that a world that had not yet stepped into an aerospace-level civilization had two spaceships flying by leaps and bounds.

Yes, two, just now one of their battle groups spotted a golden ship that had escaped from Shurima, and that ship had passed through the pirates' fleet at great speed, and then slowed down as if it were a provocation.

The pirates could not stand such anger, and without hesitation, they turned around and chased after them, because someone reported that it was the owner of the ship who caused them trouble in the first place, and they were indeed following the traces of the ship.

But the ship that was the leader was not in the group, and the pirate leader could of course see that he was trying to distract them, so he let the provoked group chase Azir.

The other three groups of ships continued to advance towards Shurima, who wanted to let the man who dared to snatch Uru metal from him die and watch his world be destroyed.

Before they came, they had already investigated clearly, and this was just a world that had not even reached the level of space-level civilization, and it was simply not enough to compete with the power possessed by the pirate group.

They couldn't figure out the number of ways except for the golden spaceship, but this was not something they were worried about, a group of outlaws, all they could get together was madness.

But just now, the group of ships that had gone after Azir suddenly lost contact, and the last news they came from was that there was an enemy on their ship, it was a group of strange people made of sand, and even a giant appeared on the outer layer of their main ship, and that giant was also made of sand.

Just when the pirates thought that their companions had suffered from mental illness from a long voyage, the news was cut off.

At the same time, Shurima's second spaceship came into view.

Before they could react, they were frightened by the sudden change in front of them, when the second ship suddenly increased its speed and rushed towards them, which they had expected to use the same trick to try to lure them away.

This group of pirates was ready to fire, but what they didn't expect was that the yellow spaceship didn't talk about martial arts, so he actually fired first.

It's just that those attacks looked like turtles crawling to them, and the primitive missiles exploded in the hull of their ship, only causing some shocks and not even scratches.

The pirates erupted in laughter and ridicule after a period of silence, and this was indeed a civilization that could not be left behind.

After the attack, Yan Shou also saw that his attacks were all useless, although he was bitter in his heart, but he was not so disappointed, such a result was expected.

It is impossible for Shurima to cause damage to a civilization of this magnitude now, no, it can't be said to be a civilization at all, just a group of pirates mixed together, maybe compared to a real superior civilization, they will only be crushed to ashes.

But it was enough to devastate Shurima's life.

Smoke Mamoru glanced back, and he couldn't find Shurima in the darkness, but he knew she was there.

He had no hope of defeating such an enemy, and if he faced the enemy head-on, his spaceship, which could only fit one person, would only be killed by that kind of behemoth in an instant.

All he needed to do was hold them off and wait for Azir to arrive.

Azir became an ascendant, but he didn't have the ability to clone himself, and even if it was Kamigawa's technology with space jumping, it would take time for Azir to solve a group of ships.

The only thing to rely on may be speed, and if it burns all the engine fuel, the ship can match or even surpass the speed of the pirates in a short period of time.

Yan Shou stroked the bridge, although he had not seen the magnificent picture of the Kamigawa civilization, he could get a glimpse of their iceberg in this kind of technology, this spaceship was just imitated with their surface technology, and it could have this level of technology.

"When will Shurima become such a civilization?"

Yan Shou couldn't help but think.

But he still took it for granted, in the first time, Yan Shou did fly the imitation spaceship, relying on the speed and small size of the agility to shuttle back and forth between the pirate ship group, successfully stopping the delay in their advance, those giant battleships on the cannon could not hit him at all, some even hit the nearby friendly ships.

In the process, Smoke Guard has been worried that they will send their own small ships, like the small formations hidden on the mothership in science fiction movies.

But no, this group of pirates has always relied on large fleets to crush, and the slightly smaller ships are only used for cargo and do not have the means to attack.

As the battle intensified, the pirates turned all their guns like crazy, and used them to attack the smoke guard, and they even blew up a frigate, but continued to attack as if they didn't care.

Smoke Mamoru laughed as he found that he had completely forgotten his fear of the universe and even liked the extreme speed of moving freely through space, and he really felt that as a warrior at this moment, he could only be so hearty when he fought for Shurima.

In the boundless darkness are thousands of troops, and he is the only one who fights alone, not taking half a step back, and becoming more and more courageous.
