Chapter 734: Seven hundred and thirty-two

 Chapter 734 Chapter 732·【Show up quickly, Luvis. 】

 Chun Kelstia died of suicide by jumping off a building.

 Only sixteen years old.

Perhaps it was because the wind was too strong today and the height she chose was too high. Her body fell right in front of Su Mingan's face, and the blood was splashed like paint.

There was a scarlet color left in her eyes. It seemed that the moment before she died, she was still fighting desperately against the [Tavi] that invaded her. Finally, she knew that her sanity could not survive, so she chose to jump down.

Since one-and-a-half dimensions are the dimensions sandwiched between one and two dimensions, her body did not disappear. Instead, it lay stunned on the street, with half the source of light floating around and the other half dripping with blood.

 The light hovered over her eyelashes and her blood-stained palms.

  When humans cannot resist the whisper of [Tavi], suicide is the last resort.

 The third generation of the Kelstia family only has Che and Yue Yue, and no one has ever mentioned spring. When he heard the surname Chun, Su Mingan knew that the girl who cultivated the first lily in spring would definitely not survive in the future.

 History is so cruel - [Those who do not exist in the future must have died in the past].

 But he didn’t expect it to happen so quickly.

 We only see each other once, and the next time we see each other, we will never see each other again. The first white lily of spring, the place of hope, turned out to be her relic.

 “We hope you are happy to see the colors of spring…”

 At that time, Chun should have been ready to commit suicide.

 The action had already begun, and people did not have time to bury Chun. Her body was taken away by a small car and transported to an invisible distance, leaving scattered blood spots along the way.

 Like a lily that has failed to bloom.

 …

 【Ruin World·Northeast Corner】

 The blood-red setting sun shrouded the village, and the buildings in the village were like jagged shadows.

People in shabby clothes knelt in a row fearfully. Dozens of ferocious-looking beasts surrounded them.

The person commanding the alien beasts is a white-haired young man. He is wearing a brown cloak and carrying a travel bag. He is a traveler who sleeps in the open air. A golden ginkgo leaf was half exposed from his breast pocket. His arms, waist, abdomen, and thighs were all wrapped in snow-white bandages, and there were even bruises and bruises on his neck.

The village chief knelt down and begged the white-haired young man for mercy: "Please, please let us go!"

 The white-haired young man just sneered.

"I'm sorry, we shouldn't have attacked you, please forgive us!" The woman next to me cried: "We thought you were just an ordinary traveler who could..."

"If I were an ordinary traveler, I would have been hacked to death by you now." Lin Guang's eyes were full of gloom: "Unfortunately, I am not, so you have to pay the price."

 In the apocalypse, humanity is gone and refugees are unable to cross long distances and take refuge in the Doomsday City. So they started robbing other refugees. It was even transformed into a bandit village.

Lin Guang was just passing by this village, but as soon as he passed by, a group of villagers suddenly waved hoes and sickles at him. Although it didn't hurt him, it made him realize the evil of human nature again.

 …What can be saved about this kind of person?

 …Once one's own life is threatened, like primitive animals, they will do any evil thing. Plundering, exchanging children for food, and people eating people.

Lin Guang stepped forward and picked up the collar of a big man. The big man was so frightened that his face was full of tears.

“Traveler, please let me go, I’m just starving...”

 Ignoring the people begging for mercy, Lin Guang suddenly raised his head. He opened his eyes slightly, as if waiting for something. After a moment, his Adam's apple moved slightly and he said loudly:

“Lovis—come and stop me, where are you?”

  His voice spread far and wide, like an eagle flitting across the barren wilderness.

While holding up the trembling big man in his hand, he turned his eyes and searched for the empty land around him.

"Lovis, you will see me, right? You can always save everyone in time, even a group of hopeless villains. As long as I attack them, you will appear in time to stop me, Stand against me - because they are the weak and I am the bad guy.

"So - come and stop me, hate me, rebuke me, call me a devil - you like these ugly humans so much, you are their great hero, now come and save them!"

 "Come out quickly! Come out quickly! Lewis!"

He repeated similar words dozens of times like crazy, with an extremely serious look on his face. He seemed to be really convinced that his words were logical and that he could wait for someone.

There was silence all around, except for the sound of the endless grassland rolling in the wind.

 The villagers suddenly understood that they had provoked a mentally disturbed madman.

  The bandage on Lin Guang's body oozed blood with his violent movements. But he didn't care. He put his other hand on his neck, pressing against the purple pinch marks there, as if this would reassure him.

 Feeling similar pain makes him feel at ease.

 “Hurry up in front of me, come and save them...” There was innocence and cruelty in his words, and he believed that he could “summon” Luvis in this way.

                               

Behind him, there was a violent scraping sound of grass blades, as if someone was approaching. Lin Guang immediately let go of his hand and turned back with joy -

A girl with a ponytail and a lace tutu walked over while brushing aside the blades of grass. She held a letter in her hand.

Lin Guang frowned slightly. He made sure that this person was not Louise dressed as a woman, and then said coldly: "Who are you? Why are you approaching me?"

When Yamada Town heard this, he felt angry: "I have worked for you for more than ten years, and you don't even remember my name?"

 He joined the camp of gods from the beginning and was the third in command of the City of Gods. He used his own name at the time, which should be very recognizable, but this ruthless white-haired man turned around and forgot about him!

Lin Guang checked it carefully and found that it looked familiar. Under Yamada Machichi's slightly expectant gaze, he spoke slowly:

 “Are you...Shan Tingting?”

 “I am Yamada Machichi!!” Yamada Mach was furious.

 “Okay, Shan Tiantian.” Lin Guang forgot after hearing this.

Yamada Machichi took a breath and shouted: "I am Yamada Machichi! Yamada Machichi! It's not Yamada Tiantian. You don't remember anyone, right?"

“I remember Luvis’s teammates.” Linguang said: “His teammates...the golden-haired dwarf, the smiling tiger, the female knight, and the man in pajamas. I remember them all very clearly.”

Yamada Machichi: "?"

No, he knows who the golden dwarf, the smiling tiger and the female knight are. Who does the last pajama man refer to? Is there such a thing as weird?

 Yamada Machichi thought for a long time and didn't know who the "pajama man" was referring to. He had to thank Lin Guang for at least remembering the "mountain" of his name. At least he won't be remembered as "Lolita Shorty."

 Seeing the two start chatting, a dozen villagers fled silently.

Yamada Machichi glanced at Lin Guang, who was motionless: "You actually didn't kill them?"

"I already hate killing people." Lin Guang said: "Because when you are hurt, your body will be very painful, and no one will be happy because of it...What are you looking for me for? Just get out of here."

Lin Guang is extremely indifferent even to his subordinates of more than ten years.

"Here, your friend, Lewis gave you a letter." Yamada Machi handed over the letter.

Lin Guang grabbed the envelope in seconds, tore the outer shell into pieces, and unfolded it.

 There are only a few lines of small words on the letter paper.

 …

  【Don't cause trouble these two days, thank you. 】

  【If you don't cause trouble, I'll treat you to dinner another day. 】

 …

In order to stabilize Lin Guang's insecurity, Su Mingan wrote a letter to stabilize him. As for when "another day" will be, we will wait and see.

 “I’m leaving.” Yamada Machichi turned around immediately. He didn’t want to stay with such a madman for a long time. Looking at the bandages on Lin Guang's body that were almost like a snowman, one didn't know what this madman had done recently.

"-etc."

Lin Guang's voice sounded behind him, and Yamada Cho's hair stood on end as he paused hesitantly.

 “Thank you for sending me the letter.” Lin Guang said.

Yamada Machi glanced back at Lin Guang. He suddenly discovered that compared to the 32 years since the disaster, the expression on Lin Guang's face had become much more natural, no longer the sullen face and stiff muscles before. The red blood all over his body gradually seeped out along the snow-white bandage, staining the ginkgo leaves on his chest red.

 In the deserted village, there was only this man standing quietly at the door, carrying a thick travel bag, like a white-haired dog wet by heavy rain.

 …has no basic thinking logic, cannot perceive positive emotions, cannot communicate with others reasonably, cannot love others, and cannot be loved. It's like a person who has lost all five senses since birth and is covered in a black shell. His behavior is always mixed with innocence and cruelty.

“Forget it... I’ll give you a message. It’s Wilde’s “The Nightingale and the Rose.”” Yamada Machichi was also a soft-hearted person and said:

“[Those who seek death and life for a rose must also be able to abandon the rose indifferently. It’s a pity that the nightingale doesn’t understand it, just as it doesn’t understand the complex human heart.]”

He just gave an advice, but he would not say much. Lin Guang had already committed an unforgivable crime. He had killed so many innocent residents and it was impossible to be cleansed.

Lin Guang stared at him blankly.

 “Thank you, although I didn’t understand what you meant.” Lin Guang said: “Shan Tiantian.”

 …

 Six o'clock in the evening, inner city, central banquet hall of Doomsday City.

Under the luxurious light, the red carpet was rolled out all the way, along the jade-white steps at the end of the hall, and extended to the second floor platform.

 All kinds of red wine, cakes, steaks and other foods that are extremely luxurious in the ruined world decorate the snow-white dining tables scattered in the hall. People in formal attire held bright golden crystal cups in their hands and talked in low voices.

The dinner party has not started yet, and the host of the party, the city lord Asa Acto, has not arrived yet.

The dinner party invited some people with high status in the inner city, including major commanders, generals, and allies of Doomsday City, such as the Freedom Alliance, Trial House, City of Hope, Antofa City, Yaoguang, and high-level officials of various forces.

—In this case, Su Mingan arrived as the city lord of the "underground city".

Among the forces that have remained silent, Su Mingan is the only one who openly resists. As soon as he stepped into the banquet hall, countless eyes fell on him.

In the 42nd year of Cataclysm, Su Mingan had attended a similar banquet in the same banquet hall. Su Lin also helped him kill Herax, the female city lord of the Ninth City. Many people's positions, even the placement of red wine and desserts, were exactly the same.

 But in the 71st year of the Catastrophe, the positions were reversed, and he turned out to be the enemy of these people.

He saw the scarlet look in many people's eyes - under the unscrupulous suppression of the counterfeiters, the city-state was like a leaky wooden building, with invaders everywhere.

   …”

Su Mingan walked past the red carpet and blended into the crowd. Next to him was Cheng Luohe, who volunteered to come.

“Sir, the impostor hasn’t arrived yet.” Cheng Luohe sat down in the booth and scanned the men and women around him with a pair of shining eyes. As a sniper, this was his subconscious action.

“There were a lot of people attending the dinner, most of them were leaders.” Su Mingan said: “They are all acquaintances...”

 They are all acquaintances from the past forty years who have shaken hands with him and said they would fight for him.

These people are not unaware that Akto has a problem, but their ideological dominance and personal desires make them pretend not to think about it and continue to enjoy the shelter they created more than ten years ago.

 Who the ruler is and how stupid the ruler is has nothing to do with them. On the contrary, they can also use this to make money.

Su Mingan judged that even if he stood up and announced his identity now, many of these blindfolded people would pretend not to hear. They have changed their nature, they have families and children, they are no longer lonely boys, and they no longer have the original intention of conquering the world.

 The brilliance, ugliness and changeability of human nature have been vividly displayed in the short forty years of the Dawn War.

"Da da da."

 Suddenly, the banquet hall became quiet.

 On the second floor platform, the sound of leather shoes hitting the ground came from the smooth tiles.

The light fell from the dome, trapping the man's slender, white figure. People can't help but breathe softly and move their eyes upward, like a dazzling spotlight.

"Damn fake..." Cheng Luohe crushed the wine glass in his hand.

Su Mingan raised his eyelids.

The man stood on the highest step, bathed in the golden light of the banquet hall, looking also far away in the direction of Su Mingan.

 He seemed to smile.
