Hill walked forward slowly, the sun fell under his feet, he walked forward stepping on the fallen leaves illuminated by the sun, the weather was fine, the blue sky was cloudless, but his mood at the moment was not as good as the sun bright.
He had just sent those humans away. Nearly half of the twenty or so humans who came to Earth had collapsed when they left Earth.
[If humans come to the earth, they will be obliterated by the earth.]
With a heavy heart, he thought of what the boy said not long ago, and his mood was full of emotions for a while, and it was extremely complicated.
If what Mutter said is true, it is impossible for human beings to set foot on the earth. It stands to reason that as a member of Jia who protects the earth, he should be relieved and happy about it, but looking at the tragic situation of those human beings, he was inexplicably a little sigh.
It's not sympathy, human beings don't deserve sympathy, he just can't help but sigh with emotion.
It is obvious that the life that was conceived by the earth is rejected by the earth in the end, and even regarded as a harmful thing-it can never set foot on the homeland again-what a sad thing.
[When humans abandoned the earth, the earth also abandoned humans forever.]
The cause 20,000 years ago, the result 20,000 years later.
…
Those human beings who destroyed the earth tens of thousands of years ago are gone, and their descendants must and should bear the sins committed by their ancestors.
Sensing a different atmosphere ahead, the thoughtful Hill raised his head subconsciously, and saw a girl standing behind the dense bushes not far ahead as if she was peeking at something. Turning her eyes again, the direction the girl was looking at was the scene where the leader of Jia who came back from the universe was talking with the chairman of their conference on Earth.
Obviously, the girl was trying to eavesdrop on something, but she didn't seem to be able to.
As soon as he walked over, the girl noticed that he was coming, and immediately turned around, pretending to be doing nothing, and squinting at the treetops beside her.
"...Sarah?"
Looking at the girl with short flaxen curly hair, Hill called out her name.
Sarah, whose name was called out by him, opened her eyes instantly.
"you know me?"
"Well, you cried the loudest that day."
On that day, when Hill, as a representative of the earth, accompanied Noah to bring back their companions who returned from the universe to the earth, he saw with his own eyes that when the footsteps of those returned companions fell on the earth, many people were shocked. I can't help crying.
Sadness, nostalgia, satisfaction, happiness, great joy and great sorrow in escape... When they really return to the earth that they have dreamed of, countless complex emotions are entangled, forcing them to lose control in an instant.
At that time, Hill quietly watched those returning companions weeping on the ground.
He remembered two hundred years ago, that day, when the most primitive life in the ocean was finally born, he was still very young watching those elders weeping uncontrollably.
At that time, he was still very young and didn't understand why they were crying.
Now, looking at the crying of these returned companions, and feeling their sad and joyful thoughts at the moment, he thinks he understands a little bit how his elders were crying uncontrollably at that time.
Among them, the girl who cried so hard left a little impression on him, so he remembered that others called her name.
Hill's words immediately made Sarah blush.
She didn't know why, but when she stayed in the spaceship and saw this blue planet, her nose was inexplicably sore, and her heart was also sore. As soon as she got off the spaceship and stood on the ground, the unspeakable heart-wrenching feeling made her cry very hard for a while.
It's embarrassing to think about it now.
"Don't worry about it."
she hummed.
Hill smiled, looking at Sarah with a gentle gaze.
"We are fellow countrymen," he said. "Ga will never abandon his companions at any time."
"Even if they are compatriots, they will not bully others."
Sarah glanced at him and muttered under her breath.
"Huh? Someone bullied you?"
"Who dares to bully me, you don't count, but many of you can't beat me." Sarah curled her lips, "You bully Mutt, you bully the Marshal."
"..."
"Look, you can't speak."
"...some things, you can't do them if you want to. Sometimes, there are always some things you can't do. Well, you probably don't understand it now." Hill smiled and raised his hand to rub Sa Pulled the head, but was opened by Sarah.
"I understand."
The girl with flaxen curly hair raised her head and stared at him with big round eyes.
"It's not that it can't be done, it's just that you don't want to do it. It's just that you weigh the pros and cons and think it's not worth it. For really important things, you don't even think about whether you can do it or not, you just do it hard."
She said seriously, "It's like Marshal Troll, because Mute is very important to him, so he doesn't even think about whether chasing Mute is worth it or whether it can be done, he will just do it .”
"..."
Hill opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
The girl's words were very straightforward, so straightforward that it was impossible to refute them.
"Forget it, tell you people, you won't understand."
Sarah snorted. She tilted her head and looked at Noah and the president of the Earth not far away. After watching for a while, she suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, speaking of it, you are talking to us in the common language of the empire, right?"
She asked strangely, "We can only speak the common language of the empire, but you have been staying on the earth and have not gone out. Shouldn't you be speaking the language of the Earth Alliance ten thousand years ago?"
"We have always used the Alliance language, but I and some elders can also speak the human language of the universe, which is the imperial language you speak."
Hill replied, "Although we have been working hard to revive the earth for tens of thousands of years, we have always been vigilant about the return of humans to the earth. Therefore, every few thousand years, we will send people to sneak into the fringes of the human empire to listen to some news. Learned the language of humans...but not all of them can."
He smiled.
"Because I'm afraid you won't get used to it, the people who arrange to take care of you will speak that language."
"So that's how it is... However, we can also speak a little Earth language, it was Mutt who taught us."
Sarah said enthusiastically, "When I didn't know your existence, Mutt said, when we return to the earth, we will rebuild our home together. At that time, everyone should stop using the imperial language. He will teach everyone about the earth." language."
"... Really." Hill hummed in a low voice, and he said as if he was sighing, "Mute...is indeed a very good leader."
When he said this, Sarah immediately smiled.
"Yeah, you think so too~~ Mutt is really good~~"
Seeing the girl's happy smiling face, Hill's brows and eyes softened a bit.
He said softly: "You like him so much, if he goes away with humans and leaves you, won't you be sad?"
Sarah froze for a moment, she didn't answer, but turned to look at Noah who was not far away.
"... I will be reluctant, me too, Noah too, and Canaan, there are many people."
"But... for us, he has worked very hard, for a long time... Mutt's hope is our hope, and what he prays for is what we all pray for."
She looked at Hill. At this moment, there was something in the girl's eyes that Hill couldn't understand.
"I don't think you will understand our prayer."
...
……………
"How is this going?!"
As soon as he returned to the ship, he got the bad news. Robin's roar shook the whole room.
"It's the same symptoms as Major General Via..."
"!!!"
The corners of the red-haired man's eyes twitched violently, and he clenched his teeth. The muscles on his face twitched extremely ugly.
He raised his hand suddenly and slapped himself hard.
"Call you a fucking crow's mouth!"
He flicked his mouth, cursing himself like that.
In order to deceive Mutt into Ishtar, he told a lie about the accident of the boss, but in the end, this fabricated lie actually came true.
The BOSS has fallen, and it has the same symptoms as Via, and it is even much more serious than Via.
Robin wished he could kill himself at this moment.
If Via's fall was just nervous and worried, then His Majesty's fall really made him almost collapse.
Here at this moment, in this Ishtar ship, the young emperor is the only center and the spiritual pillar of everyone—and once the news of the collapse of the spiritual pillar is leaked, Robin himself does not know what will happen. Dare to imagine.
It's no exaggeration to describe it as a world apart.
Everything will spin out of control with the fall of their Majesty, and it will collapse completely anytime, anywhere.
It must be concealed.
Robin gritted his teeth and thought.
This news must be kept under wraps, otherwise—
While he was still anxiously thinking about countermeasures, the door of the ward opened and someone came out.
Robin looked up, and immediately straightened his eyes.
The black-haired boy stood at the door, looking at him quietly with dark eyes. And beside the boy, a familiar tall figure was walking out of Mute.
With a handsome face that seemed to be glowing, dark blue eyes, and a slender figure, the man looked at Luo Bin, and his cold side cheek seemed to be covered with a metallic coldness.
Robin opened his mouth wide and stuttered for a while.
"BO... BOSS, you, are you ready so soon?"
After stammering, he grinned.
"Let me just say, how could something happen to you, I'm fine, like you—"
He grinned halfway, when he saw Mute look up, speaking to the boss as if giving an order.
"In the past, follow Robin. From now on, obey all his words. Do whatever he asks you to do, and you can't violate even a word."
As soon as Mutt finished speaking, Robin was astonished to see the cold and domineering BOSS obediently nodding at Mutt, then obediently followed the instructions and walked to stand beside him, looking at him like awaiting his order.
"BO... BOSS?!"
Looking at the obedient and obedient appearance of his boss, Luo Bin felt extremely horrified for a moment.
"This is da da."
"What?"
Robin let out an ah, his mind lit up, and he immediately remembered. A few years ago, the BOSS brought Da Da to Ishtar, as if it was secretly in charge of investigating and finding Jia.
Although he was in Ishtar, Da Da seldom showed up, so he almost forgot.
"Now Ishtar can't be messed up, and the major general can't let everyone know, and it can't be done on the earth, otherwise... we can only let Da Da become a major general to stand up."
Mutt said, "Robin, I leave it to you."
Robin was silent for a while before asking.
"How is the boss?"
"..."
Seeing that Mutt didn't answer, Robin went straight into the door and entered the special ward.
It was an elliptical spherical room. The man who suddenly fell was lying quietly on the metal platform in the center of the room. Countless rays of light wrapped around his body, part of which sank into his body.
On the curved wall, there are large or small light curtains in all directions, on which data and images of physical conditions are constantly flashing.
"why?"
"..."
"If according to what you said, I should be the one who fell first, why is it the BOSS?"
"… because I."
"what?"
"He's had too much contact with me."
"What's the meaning?"
"Because my spiritual frequency is very close to the earth... If it is a physical rejection for you, and the major general is a deeper rejection... I can't say it clearly... The mysterious relationship between the spirit and the subconscious at... it's really hard to explain..."
The boy frowned and said, the language was very chaotic, as if it was difficult to organize, because this is a very difficult thing to express.
Robin stared blankly at Mutt, his mind suddenly brightened.
"You know—you knew about it, that's why you left the boss at that time?"
"Robin...it doesn't make any sense to say such a thing now."
Robin opened his mouth to say something, but he closed it after a while.
Mutter is right.
At a time like this, what's the point of asking why Mutt left in the first place
"You said that as long as Via leaves the earth, she will gradually get better. Boss is the same? As long as she doesn't set foot on the earth again, as long as—" Robin paused suddenly when he said this, he looked at Mute, Still continued.
"As long as there is no further contact with you..."
He saw the boy's pupils tremble slightly, so he paused again.
He turned his head and looked to the side, where the young human emperor was lying there quietly, as if in a deep sleep.
Shadows shrouded that body, the snow-white skin was bloodless, so pale that it was shocking.
That side cheek was cold and clear, lifeless, and the thin, tight lips were terribly cold.
"I don't want to say this..." Robin said slowly, "but, Mutt, if it's what you say, then you can't stay here."
The hand beside him was clenched into a fist, and he clenched so tightly that his knuckles were almost crackling.
He almost exhausted all his strength, stared at Mute, and said word by word what he really didn't want to say at all.
He said, "You have to go."
He said, "The farther away from His Majesty the better."
The ward was eerily quiet for a moment, only the reverberation of Robin's voice was still echoing faintly.
Mute stood there, watching Robin quietly.
The pitch-black hair was scattered in front of his eyes, and the shadows fell into his pupils, making it difficult for people to see his eyes clearly at the moment. He just stood quietly like this, staring at Robin who asked him to leave with his dark pupils.
He looked past Robin to the man behind Robin.
Robin was standing right here, in front of him, between him and that person.
He knew that Robin would not let himself be one step closer to the major general.
Not so long ago, that person was still within his reach, those strong arms hugged him tightly, and the soft kiss fell on the corner of his eyes.
Not long ago, that person was still whispering in his ear, it was so close that their breaths seemed to be intertwined with each other.
... what an irony.
By now, he could no longer take a step closer to that person.
Robin stood in front of him, looked at him, took a step forward, approached him, and repeated.
"Please, leave—"
"no!"
A figure suddenly came in from the side, stopped in front of Mutt, and glared at Robin.
Looking at the man who suddenly appeared and stared at him, the corners of Robin's eyes twitched.
If it was in the form of a white ball, he would have already yelled bluntly.
But now that Da Da has become a BOSS, even if he knows that this person is not a BOSS, but facing this face, Luo Bin still doesn't dare to be presumptuous, so he can only talk to Da Da.
"Da da, if Mutt doesn't leave, His Majesty will die, you can't keep him here, it's for His Majesty's benefit."
"wrong."
"Da da-"
"If it's not right, it's not right!"
Da Da suddenly turned around, stretched out his arms, and hugged Mute in the appearance of Troll.
"If there is no madam... um, no..." Da Da, who clearly used the appearance of the emperor, but looked like a vexatious child, hugged Miute tightly and refused to let go, and then shouted at Robin.
"If there is no imperial concubine! His Majesty the Emperor will die!"
While he was still shouting and hugging Mutt tightly and refused to let go, suddenly a hand stretched out from the slope and grabbed his neck.
Click it.
Before everyone could react, the neck of 'His Majesty the Emperor' was snapped, and the head fell off with a snap, hit the ground, and rolled twice.
Immediately afterwards, the hand that forcibly twisted the neck of the 'emperor' clasped the shoulder of the 'emperor with severed head', pulled hard, and threw the headless body back violently. He went out, and fell heavily on the ground with a slap, hitting the severed head together.
The scene was so bloody, violent, and horrifying that Robin froze for a moment, and his whole body was petrified.
… and many more.
This strange sense of déjà vu...
Mute, who was so stunned that he didn't react for a while, suddenly remembered something, his chest tightened suddenly, and he raised his head suddenly.
He saw those familiar dark blue eyes, and the young emperor who woke up at some time was standing in front of him, looking down at the trembling silver ball on the ground with extremely unhappy eyes. White liquid metal.
