Shannuya was silent.
All the tentacles of the Void Hunter opened like flower petals, and then closed gently, as if flower buds were protecting the girl inside.
Even though the girl is just a tiny creature on its body, it can perceive the girl's burning soul, as well as the grief and hope hidden deep in the soul.
"I understand."
Shannuya said, "If you insist, let's go!"
Pepe took a deep breath and nodded heavily.
At this moment, a "rustling" sound came from the fragmented escape cabin, and the communication channel was activated again.
Dad and brother all saw the change in Shannuya's complexion, and felt ripples in the space, like waves with a high tide, gradually surging.
They all understood what this meant.
Shannuya is going to launch the star sea jump-with Pepe.
"Pepe!"
The elder brother turned pale with fright, and roared in the communication channel, "What are you doing, what the hell did Shannuya do!"
"...that's the only way, brother."
Pepe wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile, "I'm stupid, and I can't think of a second way. Only in this way can you stop hurting each other—even if it's only for a few hundred years or even just a few decades. .”
"You, where are you going?"
The elder brother's roar became flustered, "Shannuya is seriously injured, it is destined to lose its direction in the four-dimensional space, and the frenzied storm will blow you randomly to a corner at the end of the universe, and you may never find your way home for the rest of your life Lu, you will never see us again!"
"Yes, but at least I know that the homeland is still there, and you and Dad must still exist somewhere in the Star Sea."
"That's enough," Pepe said.
"why!"
The elder brother's voice turned into tears, "It turned out to be such a method, why didn't you tell me just now!"
"You will definitely not agree to what I told you just now."
Peipei said apologetically, "I'm sorry, brother, I'm sorry for causing you to be scolded again."
"Silly sister, is this a matter of being scolded or not?"
My brother roared, "Come back, come back to me, let's think of a way together, a way to get the best of both worlds!"
"There's no other way, at least not right now."
Pepe laughed again, "However, there are so many smart people in the fleet, and so many kind, innocent children who believe in fairy tales and justice. I believe that I will give you decades, hundreds or thousands of years Time, you can definitely think of a way.
"One day, Shannuya will come back from the edge of the star sea, and perhaps even more powerful alien races in the starry sky will meet humans. I hope that at that time, we have already figured out a way for everyone to live in harmony without hurting each other.
"Brother, help me tell my father... I'm sorry, I still remember the first fairy tale he told me. I especially like to lie in his arms and listen to him tell me those fairy tales about justice defeating evil. I just , I just hope that fairy tales are not just fairy tales."
"No! No! No!"
My brother yelled hysterically.
"Goodbye, brother, goodbye, dad, goodbye, Beibei, Anqi, Xiaotao, and everyone, goodbye..."
Pepe's eyelashes, hands and voice trembled as she cut off the communication with all her might.
The dots of space armor and starships blooming in the distance, like the lights of thousands of homes, warm and brilliant.
"Let's go."
The girl wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, gently patted the giant beast under her feet, and released a most resolute brain wave, "Let's go, my prince, and embark on a journey that only belongs to us!"
…
Everyone in the fleet saw this scene.
Whether it is passing through the porthole or the three-dimensional light curtain on the starship, or driving the space armor, there is nothing you can do if you are close at hand.
The huge mountain-like monster once again opened all its tentacles, like a flower in full bloom, and spun lightly in a posture that was completely inconsistent with its body shape.
At that moment, many people had hallucinations in their minds, as if they saw a beautiful girl in a long skirt dancing happily and laughing like silver bells.
The long skirt or tentacles turned into sails, and the three-dimensional universe split to both sides like black sea water. A golden avenue leading to the four-dimensional space continued to extend under the girl's feet, extending all the way to the endless distance. Her teardrops turned into little crystals, which were the last traces of her left in this space.
Before the cosmic armor and the deadly death ray arrived, the void hunter and the girl disappeared.
…
Seeing the slowly spreading space ripples, the people in the fleet were silent, unable to recover for a long time.
The bruised and bruised elder brother, controlled or supported by his father, stared at everything dumbfounded, and couldn't help crying bitterly.
"Dad, I was wrong, I was really wrong!"
My brother was sobbing.
"Yes, you are wrong."
Dad said coldly.
"Then why didn't you stop me? Your strength is obviously more than that. You can easily destroy my space armor and catch up with Pepe. Why don't you do it?"
Brother growled.
"… I have no idea."
Dad said.
"And the commander, he could attack Pepe's escape pod and destroy it directly, why didn't he do that and stop Pepe?"
Brother continued to throw out doubts.
"I still don't know."
Dad said.
The elder brother was silent, staring at the empty star sea, his younger sister had fled to the far side of the vast star sea, on an unknown star.
"We did something stupid, didn't we?"
he asked Dad.
"Yes, but it doesn't matter. Someone is going to do something stupid. It's not you, it's me, it's not us, it's someone else. Someone is going to be stupid."
Dad sighed for a long time, and said quietly, "Because this is us—stupid human beings!"
…
