Nirvana Rebirth

Chapter 9: Reboot and farewell

Views:

Akka once read in a book that sometimes, certain groups of people will go one after another to attack death, such as the mice in the depths of the desert, who will leave their homes and rush to the sea; The swarms, will one day flock to the shore in thousands, stranded on the sand.

Even a group of whales that existed in ancient times, with a history older than human beings, when the group could no longer survive, they would take the initiative to rush to the land and exchange their own death for the conditions for the survival of the entire group.

On this day, when he saw countless large and small warships all dispatched, rushing towards the city of machinery like a shoal of heroic death, and exchanged a violent attack for the survival of the group, he couldn't help thinking of many years ago, reading in a book to this scene.

+++++

All the living forces of the clones were dispatched in full force, covering the sky, and the gleaming hull was like the scales of light fish in the deep sea, covering the sky in an instant under the dark and thunderous sky.

The perimeter of the city of machinery was already covered with guards, and the fighting robots took off one after another, attacking them with fierce artillery fire. Blackstone and Akka stood on the bridge, looking at the flames and flames that exploded everywhere in the sky.

After the Revolutionary War, the body of "Father" was broken and the tower was cut off. In this short half-year, the only part of the spire that was rebuilt was steel bars and exposed wires, flashing strong under the sky. Light. However, the city of machinery still has the most powerful combat power on the mainland. The flying robots are like an inexhaustible swarm of termites, rushing towards the battleship troops.

+++++

There was a loud bang, and alarms began to flash inside the ship.

"Warning, right wing hit, engine failure."

"Prepare to abandon the ship to escape." Blackstone said, "Aka, are you ready?"

Akka nodded, the "father" in the distance reflected in his eyes, at this time, it was gathering energy. Akara lowered the communicator beside her ear and said loudly, "Filuo! Did you hear it?"

"I'm here." Karna's voice came from his ear, "What's the matter?"

"'Father' is starting to store energy!" Akka said, "Tell them, don't come any closer! Otherwise, the electromagnetic storm will destroy all the battleships!"

"You act now." Karna said.

+++++

The battleship began to tilt and vibrate violently. Akka rushed over the escalator and entered the hangar. In an instant, the entire battleship reversed. Blackstone reached out his hand in time, wrapped his arms around his waist, and shouted, "Be careful!"

Akka got on the small aircraft and squeezed into the cabin with Black Stone, Akka said: "Can't wait for them to get closer, just fly in!"

Another laser hit the battleship, the exploding red cloud collapsed, and a small aircraft flew out of the red cloud.

The aircraft shuttled back and forth in countless explosions, avoiding the flying metal fragments and light bullets. Blackstone pulled the joystick and said, "Change to manual mode."

Akka slammed the brakes, Blackstone rolled, and the aircraft flipped somersaults in the air, avoiding the giant steel fighter jets and clone warships that collided suddenly!

"I found out now," a voice came from the communicator, lazily said, "The clone brothers are really not afraid of death."

"Tsar!" Akka exclaimed excitedly.

More and more Iron Legion fighters took off and charged towards them. After approaching the core area, their aircraft became the only target. However, in the flames, a group of human flying ships rushed towards them! Immediately after that, trained to split into two wings, spread out, and begin to protect the aircraft they are in!

"Because they know the details of each other," Grizzly said in a deep voice. "As Lieble said, the whole group is like one person."

"Then will they exchange wives?" said the Tsar.

Suddenly there was a burst of laughter in the communicator, and Grizzly said: "Now, let us humans carry out the final escort for the Holy Son!"

In the communicator, countless Phoenix City mercenaries responded loudly, and Akka couldn't help but be filled with pride at that moment.

"Go to the middle!" Akka said loudly, "Find the place where it shines! There you can go straight to the core area of the 'Father'!"

+++++

As soon as the voice fell, the majestic body of "Father" flashed.

The blue light flashed, and everyone's eyes briefly appeared blank, and in this fleeting moment, all the structures of "Father" were reflected in Akka's eyes.

It was the most magical moment between the sky and the earth, as if the hand of the gods had imposed fate on a certain point in the world, and the thoughts that flashed in Akka's mind were not "father", not war, nor This incredible ability is his destiny—a sacrifice.

In that second, he almost fully understood that he was born because of this, and that his mission also took over the responsibility of a certain person at that moment.

"Paixi... I understand..." Akka's pupils shrank rapidly, frozen at a certain moment.

"What?" Heishi said, "Be careful!"

A huge steel plate spun toward them, the aircraft spun to the left, and one of its wings was cut off. It suddenly dragged black smoke, and with a loud bang, it fell to the body of "Father".

"Have you found the entrance?" the tsar's voice asked in the communicator, "better hurry up, I can't promise if you can…"

"Circling down!" Akka shouted, "it's two hundred and twenty meters above the ground! I've seen it!"

The entrance was in the center of the four light cannons, and the Grizzly smiled helplessly: "It's a good location."

As the sound fell, the escort battleships on both sides suddenly separated to the left and right, the light energy cannons shot separately, and the blue-light magnetic storm of the top tower spread out in an instant!

There was a loud "hum" sound, and all the sounds were far away. On the Eastern Continent, with "Father" as the center, a rapidly spreading electromagnetic ring erupted. The sky, the earth, all the mechanical guards and clone warships without exception, were swept by this indiscriminately paralyzing magnetic storm, the world was silent for two seconds, and then all the fighting machines burst into flames and fell towards the ground.

The earth trembled endlessly, the instrument panel on the aircraft turned and trembled, and Blackstone could no longer control the aircraft. With an explosion, the top was lifted off. At the last moment when the aircraft hit the tower, countless golden light feathers flew away. Then assemble under your feet. Akka hugged Hei Shi's waist and closed his eyes tightly. The two stepped on the flying board composed of light feathers, and took advantage of the second when the light cannons were separated, and rushed into the main tower of "Father".

+++++

Akka heard a cry in the communicator. He couldn't tell whether it was the Tsar's or the Grizzly's, or whether it was a clone fighter. However, these were no longer important to him. The moment in the tower started, it was like entering another completely different world.

This is a promenade full of light. The ceilings, floors, and walls inside the promenade are all light screens flashing with countless codes. Standing in it, it is like being in the vast information universe. The surging symbols are like stars. The ebb and flow, the rolling of the tides, never ends.

"Blackstone?" Akka knelt beside Blackstone and found that he was unconscious.

Blackstone coughed out a mouthful of blood with difficulty.

"Blackstone!" Akka said loudly.

"Zoroaster has lost all his powers," said the deep voice of "Father." "Stupid human beings, to this day, still hold unrealistic fantasies..."

"This is..." Blackstone said intermittently, "Attenuating rays, don't be afraid, Akka, go, we continue to move forward."

Akara picked up the black stone, made him lean on him, and ran quickly across the corridor, the threatening voice of "Father" echoed in their ears.

"Abandon your actions, all of this can never be stopped because of your actions..."

"You don't have much time." Akka raised his head and muttered, "You paralyzed all the mechanical lifeforms in the city of machines, and now you have no fighting power..."

The two ran all the way to the end of the corridor, and a huge dark blue crystal beam of light with countless tentacles appeared in front of them.

Akka: "Quick! That's its core controller!"

Blackstone roared: "Be enlightened - La Belle!"

Black Stone's wings fluttered open, and he flew towards the center of the blue light column with Akka in his arms. Everything in Akka's eyes was changing rapidly, and a gap in the crystal column appeared.

At the same time, thousands of waving blue tentacles rolled backwards, entangling Black Stone. Black Stone shouted, but Akka kicked on Black Stone and flew out like an arrow. After a short final distance, he raised the chip reader with his left hand and shot it towards the center of the crystal.

The passage of time seemed to stop completely, Akka flew towards the crystal column in mid-air, slapped the chip reader with a palm, made a soft sound, and stuck it into the groove.

Immediately, the entire crystal column turned from blue to red, and the codes in all directions were completely disrupted.

"Warning, emergency shutdown," "Father" made an electronic sound against his will, "Start the core program again after thirty seconds, twenty-nine, twenty-eight..."

The tentacles disappeared at that instant, and Black Stone roared, flew towards the crystal column, circled, and caught Akka.

However, the two collided fiercely on the crystal pillar and fell headlong into the abyss.

Hundreds of millions of codes converged like shining stars, and then formed a huge face. The human face composed of twinkling squares opened its mouth and roared angrily.

Black Stone was full of blood, hugging Akka, and falling rapidly in the void, the speed was getting faster and faster, along the energy column controlled by "Father", from the space in the tower directly to the core of the astrolabe, falling to the ground.

Akka opened his eyes and saw a little light in the dark distance.

The blue light of "Father" kept spinning around them, and the glowing tentacles were drawn towards them, but whenever they approached Blackstone and Akka, Wu Jinyu suddenly popped out and collided with the tentacles fiercely.

With a loud "bang", Akka and Blackstone rushed into the end of the blue light at the same time, the consciousness of "Father" subsided, and what appeared in front of them was a white, still field.

There were thousands of water droplets floating in the air around, Akka turned his head in surprise, and found that every drop of water reflected a grand world. He and Blackstone let go of each other's hands and hovered silently in the air.

"Is it here?" Akka said blankly, he tried to land, but was always suspended in mid-air. The two looked up and saw that high above their heads, countless blue light tentacles were trying to invade this space, and "Father" was still trying to seize control of the core of the astrolabe.

Blackstone replied: "For tens of millions of years, you should be the first and last human to enter here."

+++++

"What is this?" With a surprised look in his eyes, Akka poked one of the water droplets floating around him with his finger. The water droplet made a soft sound, divided into countless smaller water droplets, and scattered in all directions. The reflected world disappeared and a new world was born.

"This is the knowledge base of God the Father." Blackstone replied, "He stored all the experimental data in these water droplets, and in the core of the astrolabe, used the compatibility of liquids to perform transformations and calculations."

Akka couldn't help but marvel at how amazing it is. This vast world full of white light has far exceeded the knowledge system of human beings. Blackstone said again: "Do you want to start now, Akka?"

"Do you know how to do it?" Akka asked.

Blackstone protected Akka behind him and said, "No matter what happens, don't come forward."

"No," Akka said, "what can I do for you? Don't do it all the time."

Black Stone motioned him not to speak, and pointed to the core of the astrolabe. The light in the core dissipated suddenly, and an electronic sound rang out.

"Cannot be activated, a carrier is required."

Akka: "???"

Black Stone was silent for a moment, then walked up and stood in the center of the disc, but the light spot repelled him and did not gather towards his body.

"The carrier does not match, please replace the offering."

Blackstone: "…"

Akka: "!!!"

"I see," Akka said in a trembling voice, "let me do it, Blackrock."

"No!" Blackstone immediately stopped Akka.

Akka said: "You can't do it alone, you need another consciousness, I understand..."

He raised his head and looked around, all the symbols seemed to have a special meaning, and there was a slight ray of light from the floating water droplets.

"I will cooperate with you and restart the core program of the astrolabe," Akka said nervously, "I will become the main program."

"What?!" Blackstone said in disbelief, "This is impossible! What are you going to do?"

Akka motioned him to calm down, smiled and patted his shoulder. Blackstone wanted to hold him, but Akka said, "Let me try! It may not be successful! Don't worry!"

Blackstone murmured, "No, Akka, you can't… let's get out of here."

Suddenly, the nuclear world shook restlessly. The space above his head collapsed suddenly, and "Father" forced its steel frame into the depths of the astrolabe. In an instant, countless blue light tentacles were shot out, entangled in the ground, and the white light was faintly absorbed by the blue light.

The sky crumbled, the white world began to collapse layer by layer, and the water droplets collapsed.

Amidst this shock, Akka and Blackstone were still quietly facing each other, suspended in the void.

"Listen, Blackstone, wait for the restart process to start," Akka said, "I'll do as you say, don't worry, it can be solved. Don't cry, Blackstone, what are you crying about? I'll be fine... Can be with you Coming here is the happiest thing in my life..."

"No!" Black Stone rushed forward, but Akka moved faster than him, and had already walked to the core of the astrolabe. The light spots suddenly gathered towards Akka, making him a luminous figure, and the repulsive force ejected the black stone from the astrolabe.

"Aka!" Blackstone yelled.

Akka smiled and said, "Even if we don't do anything, the 'Father' will get the authority of the core, isn't it the best? Blackstone, come on, let's get started."

+++++

Blackstone's eyes were red, and he raised his hand.

The world above his head seemed to be collapsing and destroying. Amidst the falling rocks and light, Black Stone's body flashed, and countless particles flew towards Akka. The core of the astrolabe spread gently and surrounded Akka. Akka stretched his limbs, floated in the air, looked up at the heights, and a tear ran down the corner of his eyes.

That drop of tears instantly turned into one of the billions of stars in the world, and merged into the vast sea of information.

"The sacrificial life forms match, confirm the completion," Akka's voice turned into an electronic voice, replacing the boot program of the core of the astrolabe, and said in a rigid voice, "The experimental goal has been completed, please connect with the consciousness of the astrolabe."

With a "swoosh" shock, Akka's consciousness seemed to be everywhere, and was integrated into the vast astrolabe world. His body underwent strange changes under the luminosity of the nucleus, and his clothes turned into powder and scattered.

From the feet to the body, to the waist, to the head, Akka was so soft that his skin crystallized and shimmered in an instant.

The energy of the star core is carried by his body, and all the water droplets converge towards his head.

At that moment, Blackstone seemed to know that Akka would not come back.

+++++

"Aka!"

Blackstone let out a hoarse cry.

+++++

Akka said indifferently: "The connection is successful, the data is transferred."

Akka opened his eyes, and Black Stone's tears poured out wildly. He stood opposite Akka, his brows furrowed and he couldn't stop trembling, as sad as a newborn baby lost everything he had. Akka wanted to smile at him, but he was unable to make any expression. The latticed appearance flashed, and Akka's mind was madly flooded with knowledge and information as vast as the sea.

+++++

"Operation permission confirmation," Akka's voice said, "Warning, if the permission is insufficient, the operation will be forcibly terminated."

Black Stone's hand trembled as he slowly pressed it on Akka's forehead.

"Permission passed, highest authority, emergency control program, advanced life form Zoroaster," Akka looked at Blackstone and said calmly, "Welcome to the core of the astrolabe, please start the operation."

Black Stone looked at Akka, tears pouring out wildly uncontrollably, he pursed his lips and cried almost uncontrollably, then hugged the lattice-shaped Akka tightly and buried his head on his shoulder.

"Restart the astrolabe," Blackstone said in a trembling voice, "All environmental data return to their default values..."

"Confirmed." Akka stretched his arms, looked up at the top, turned his hands over, and emanated countless light spots from his palms, which fell into the barriers between the astrolabes.

+++++

There was a loud bang, and on this day, the astrolabe world that had been in operation for thousands of years shook.

+++++

The sun was shining, and in Longhou City, Moran looked up at the sky, and the ground shook. Hundreds of thousands of congregants gathered in front of the Holy See Temple. At the moment when the ground split open, golden light erupted from the bottom of the Holy See, and the huge thrusters began to hum, supporting the inner city to slowly lift into the sky.

"Aka succeeded." Moran said.

"Will he come back?" Pesci whispered.

Moran said: "He has become one with this world, and his consciousness constitutes this new world, Percy."

Percy stood on top of the platform, sobbing uncontrollably, and buried himself in front of Moran.

Moran reached out and touched Pesci's head.

+++++

On the eastern coast, the Black Sea poured down in an instant, roaring into the city, the mountains collapsed, the ground sank, the falling spaceship started again, the "Father"'s tower was broken, and the blue light gradually disappeared and dimmed.

"Come on board!" Karna shouted. "This place is about to be submerged!"

Surviving, the human beings in the steel city boarded the ship one after another, the sea rushing in and pouring into the city, the east of the continent began to sink, and the continental shelf broke. The last giant mothership rushed out of the sea and flew into the sky like a giant whale.

+++++

The clouds and haze were swept away, and the gust of wind that swept the sky blew away the red fog over Phoenix City.

+++++

The sea water, the black in the river faded away, and the clear water shone with the rays of the setting sun, flowing on the earth. The polluted water in the Black Sea turned into a whirlpool in an instant and was pulled into the depths of the core of the astrolabe.

"The astrolab restart is complete," Akka said, "waiting for your next command, according to the irreversible restart rules, after this operation, the astrolabe core will be completely formatted, the experimental data will be completely cleared, and it will no longer work. ."

Blackstone stretched out his hand, trembling, and stroked Akka's face.

Akka's expression was cold and calm, and Blackstone's sad expression was reflected in his pupils.

"Give my Akka back to me..." Blackstone choked.

Akka: "Sixty seconds remaining in the operation, fifty-nine..."

"Ah—" Blackstone hugged Akka tightly and roared in pain.

+++++

"Three, two, one."

"The program is over, the formatting is complete, goodbye." Akka whispered.

Blackstone hugged Akka tightly, unwilling to let go no matter what. However, a huge force forcibly separated them. Black Stone was torn off his left hand by the repulsive force generated by the nucleus at that moment, blood spurted out, and the whole person floated into the distance like a broken kite.

"Goodbye, Blackstone." Akka closed his eyes. At that moment, he regained his original consciousness, but in just a short second, the world fell into darkness.

The sea water poured frantically, and the magma erupted, swirling around the core. The black stone rocketed away in that repulsion. In his other hand, his fingers were dripping with blood, but he still tightly grasped a piece of Akka's broken spar.

His tears melted into the sea, and he looked at the fireball completely closed by lava in the distance, as if the depths of the universe were burning to the end, and bright stars erupted.

The fireball collapsed, enclosing the nucleus in endless darkness.

+++++

The azure sea ebbs and flows, as always. Hei Shi was sent to the beach by the tide, and blood was flowing from his broken arm. He lay on the beach with difficulty, choking silently, holding the spar shard between one of his fingers, the strength was so strong that it even pierced his skin.

"Father..." Blackstone said intermittently, in a hoarse voice, "You didn't give me the emotion, it's this moment, is it?"

"I used to think..." Blackstone couldn't stop twitching, coughing up blood, "This is the only way to evolve."

Blackstone coughed violently and buried his face in the sand, roaring in pain.

+++++

"Found him!"

"there!"

"Son!"

+++++

Karna drove the spaceship and landed on the beach, and the clones came one after another and surrounded Blackstone. Facing the sea, Black Stone knelt on the beach, sobbing.

+++++

In the boundless darkness, Akka opened his eyes and saw a piece of blue light that gradually closed and turned into the sea.

"'Father', is that you?" Akka asked softly.

"Program calculation error," "Father" said in a deep voice, "will activate self-destruct mode."

Akka walked into the blue light of "Father", raised his hands, countless program symbols spun around him, and they collapsed and collapsed one after another like an unbalanced chain.

In the blue light, a figure appeared.

"Human," the figure said, "Human is my 'father', the evolutionary program controls my core thinking, the self-correction document given to me by Father God unleashes the final causal chain, you are finally here, my child ."

The blue light gradually disappeared in front of Akka, Akka said: "End the chain of cause and effect... What is it?"

Akka walked towards the phantom of "Father", "Father" said: "I handed over the consciousness of the real state of all things to the human Karan. After he failed to select the successor in the human village, he was taken by my main program. Go back to the City of Steel. I once thought the experiment would be forcibly terminated, and it seems that you did not gain the power of prophecy consciousness of the heir, only the power of perception."

Akka: "!!!"

"Sure enough... it's consistent with what I thought." Akka said, "Is it the failed experiment?"

"Father" turned into the eyes of the creator, looked at Akka, and said: "Maybe, I will be completely eliminated, my child, you once had a wish, I have fulfilled you, activated the backup program, released Zoro Astor, do you like this journey?"

Akka nodded, "Father" said again: "As a human being, I was also learning for a while, but now it seems that everything has come to an end, are you willing to shut down for me?"

The blue light glowed, submerging Akka's figure like a tide, countless symbols spun around him, a circular text appeared in the void, and the circle in the center lit up. Akka stretched out his finger, pressed on the dot, and said, "Farewell, 'Father'."

In the sea, the abandoned mechanical tower "Father" finally extinguished all energy and was completely silent.

However, the moment Akka touched the light screen, a rescue capsule appeared behind him.

"Alternate escape procedure detected, cocoon summoned, drift mode activated." The last words left by "Father" were, "Farewell, child."

The rescue hatch was closed and Akka was incorporated into the cabin.

The tide moved, the seabed lava spewed out, the continental plates collided and subsided, swallowing the entire city of machines into the underground abyss. The lava flowed and melted all the steel, and in the depths of the trench, a rescue capsule with air bubbles shot out of the seabed and towards the surface.

Coda Freshman

one year later.

Dragonmaw City ushered in the new spring and evening festival, and Pai Xi stood on the platform, holding a holy weapon for Pope Moran. Moran closed the scroll, the prayer ended, and the people cheered like the ocean.

Pai Xi looked at Dragonmaw City, which was lit by the bright golden sunlight.

"Sometimes I think, everything is really incredible." Pei Xi whispered, he followed Moran into the hall, and the soft music sounded in the distance. Moran slowed his pace and said, "I think it's incredible that the climate on the ground has been suitable for planting and growing crops this year."

"I mean the world," Percy smiled mildly, "if Akka and Blackrock could see it too."

"They'll be back." Karna took Peyce's hand and bowed to Moran. Moran smiled and said, "Go, walk around, it's a good weather today."

All the protective shields have been removed from Dragon Mouth City, the sky is clear, white clouds drift by, and the sea of tulips blooms brilliantly.

"Did Blackstone come back with a letter?" Peyce asked Karna.

"No," Karner replied. "The last time I heard from the Grizzlies was in Phoenix, where he was only three days before he set off for the West Coast."

Pai Xi said, "Is he still looking for a way to enter the core of the astrolabe?"

"Well," Karna said, "he's not like us, let him go, baby, where do you want to go?"

"Is it alright to go to the monument?" said Pixi.

"Of course." Karna took Pixi into the car and headed towards the monument outside Dragonmaw City, where a spire of dozens of meters was erected, pointing straight to the sky. Engraved on it are the numbers of all the clones who participated in the battle as sacrifices.

Pesci dropped a flower in front of the monument, and Karna stood silently behind him.

"I don't know why," Pixi went on, "I've been dreaming about the old days lately."

Karna said: "So what?"

He knelt down beside Percy, put an arm around his waist, and Percy closed his eyes and leaned his head on Karna's shoulder.

"Everyone's hard work has finally paid off," Pesci opened his eyes, looked at Karna's blue eyes, and whispered, "Everyone is amazing, and I want to live a good life."

Karna said, "How about letting me accompany you to the carnival?"

Percy laughed, and before he could speak, Karna picked him up by the waist, let him ride on his shoulders, and walked quickly towards the Spring Festival carnival crowd.

+++++

The noisy factories have been demolished in Phoenix City, and new municipal buildings have been erected, like the wings of a phoenix.

"President." A mercenary knocked on the door and said, "I found the whereabouts of Black Stone."

The tsar put his bipod on his desk, his hat covered his face, and the grizzly bear was signing a stack of papers without looking up: "Is he still unwilling to come back?"

"He is still alone," the mercenary replied. "This is a telegram from him. He is on the coast of the Eastern Continent."

"That kid." The Tsar smiled lazily from under the brim of his hat, "How long does he want to go? Doesn't he like to eat the coffee jelly from the stand outside the Central Political Building? Why didn't he come back and eat enough?"

Grizzly said: "I think he will never give up. Forget it, preparing for the Spring Festival, does General Angus have any other requirements?"

The Tsar said: "He should be ready to abdicate. It is estimated that he will give an abdication speech today."

+++++

On the afternoon of the Spring Festival, Angus stood on the central square and said solemnly: "In this regard, I hope that our ethnic group can integrate into this new world, and history has turned a new page. I hope this world can also accommodate you."

There was applause in the square, and Angus said again: "Starting today, the Black Earth Rebellion will be disbanded on the spot, but you will retain your organization. I believe that every brother will understand and unite with each other, please remember to sacrifice for us. People of blood and life…”

More and more humans and clones choose to leave Phoenix and spread to all directions of the continent, opening up new villages, farming or nomadic.

When Akka and Paisi came to the western continent, the seaport city Caroic became the commercial and trade distribution center of the western continent. When the "Father" was destroyed, the sea roared and swept through the city of machines, and humans migrated to the ancient heart, where they established the first political country on the Eastern Continent.

Hei Shi stood by the endless coast, wearing sunglasses, a black windbreaker fluttering in the sea breeze, and a robotic arm wrapped around one of his sleeves.

Here boats come and go, and the fishermen laugh and talk loudly, asking him where he came from. Blackstone nodded politely to them and walked along the sand, leaving a clear line of footprints.

+++++

"You're here again!" A child ran across the beach with bare feet and said, "Why are you back, what are you looking for?!"

Hei Shi let out a "hmm" and continued to walk. A group of children surrounded him asking this and that.

"I can feel it," Blackstone said, "it should be around here."

"What do you feel?" the child asked.

"Cocoon." Blackstone replied simply.

"What's a cocoon?" the children laughed loudly, and then dispersed.

"Big brother, will you join us in the Snow Mountain Festival?" Another child came over and asked.

"If I find the person I'm looking for, I will." Hei Shi took off his sunglasses, glanced at him, and touched his head by the way.

+++++

"This is for you." The boy put a paper bag in Heishi's hand and said, "Mom said you came to our village often and helped us a lot."

Hei Shi stretched out his mechanical arm and gently took over the paper bag. When the alloy fingers were folded, there was a slight rubbing sound. He nodded and said, "Thank you, you all go back early, don't let the family worry."

The children ran away, but they still looked at Black Stone from a distance and waved goodbye to him. Black Stone also smiled and waved at them.

+++++

A bonfire rises on the seashore, a gentle night falls, and a full moon rises from the horizon, illuminating the sea with a silvery brilliance. Hei Shi leaned against the reef, resting his arm on his head, and looked into the distance silently.

Akka, since we separated, like you said, I went to Phoenix and had the coconut bread and coffee jelly you said.

I walked north of the Western Continent and saw peaks and islands, waterfalls and volcanoes.

At every stop on my journey, the sun followed me as I passed the singing forest you mentioned.

Now, I am at the great lake of the Creator's Eye. This is a clear snow lake, and the water will thaw around the Spring Festival every year.

I've been everywhere you said, but I can't feel you.

Sunshine, wind, rain, snowflakes, the earth, and all things, they are not you and have no breath of you.

It was not until the moment when you merged with the nucleus that I felt that the last emotion that Father God never gave me was such a strong yearning, confusion, and pain.

Perhaps in the consciousness of God the Father, He never imagined that I would also meet the eternal sorrow and the regret that life can never heal.

do you know? Pixi knew about the fact that Philo left the day Karna came back a long time ago. Like you said, he knew that Karna was not him. Just like I also know that the world is not you.

But Piecy still didn't say it, he lived hard and strong, as happy as ever, and that's a lesson I learned from you humans.

So I'm still looking, but no longer sad, because as long as I feel you're alive, there's hope.

+++++

Hei Shi closed his eyes and played with a spar in his hand. The spar gleamed as if it was resonating with something. It was the rhythm of the tides, the heartbeat of Hei Shi, the intertwining of sadness and hope that lingered for a long time. complex mood.

When the morning light shone on the sea, the spar seemed to tremble, and Heishi was awakened and opened his eyes.

+++++

A red sun was rising, and in the morning light, the sea water pushed the rescue capsule to the sea and ran aground quietly on the beach.

Blackstone walked to the rescue capsule and opened the hatch.

The sleeping Akka had a tired face, and gradually opened his eyes, saw the face of the black quartz Jun in the dawn, and then laughed.
