The girl's eyes were moist.
She has no living relatives.
After Phyllis learned the news, her first reaction was unspeakable sadness, and then she felt deep helplessness.
But now I see the continuous flow of ocean current analysis on the screen.
She got it.
Some things never leave.
A person has to die three times in his life.
For the first time, the heartbeat stops, the breath disappears, and the person is declared biologically dead.
The second time was the burial. People wore black clothes to attend the funeral. They announced that the person being buried no longer existed in this society and had quietly left.
The third time, he was the last person in the world who remembered him and forgot about him. Then, he truly died, and the entire universe would no longer have anything to do with him.
but.
It is precisely because of this research.
The name of Anthony Eleanor will forever remain in the annals of civilization.
[Signs of extraordinary awakening detected]
[Sublimation lineage detected: Records Officer]
[Extraordinary characteristic 'budding' detected: Storm Watch]
Ten o'clock at night.
Pure white commemorative lights are lit one by one around the Coastal Research Institute.
at the same time.
Su Wen looked towards the light outside the window.
Only then could he see clearly.
Those are solemn tombstones.
Phyllis Eleanor explains:
“Under each tombstone lies a former manager of the Samoa Storm Observatory.
In this.
Including my father. "
And just then.
Use roadside lights.
Su Wen saw mutants with dark blue scales on their faces hidden in the forest further away from the cemetery.
Their eyes also turned into lizard-like vertical pupils.
[Identification: The mutants of the Tide Sect are sublimated through the fusion of the Deep Sea Syndrome and the pollution of the abyss, and are genetically polluted entities. 】
[Phase mission change: Clear out the Surge Sect mutants]
After his appraisal.
The level of all enemies in front of you.
All are at least level two or above.
The third-level high-ranking patriarch standing at the front had even more obvious signs of mutation in his deep-sea scales and vertical pupils, and he was three meters tall.
He said in a cold tone:
"Fosse-Constance sent us the message before she died.
It was you who killed him through inexplicable means.
Besides, the most important sacrifice is also here.
Kevin.
You are at a dead end. "
Right now.
Navy warships in the distance also rushed over under the command of Colonel Ulysses.
The huge sound of cannon fire boomed in places that did not affect the cemetery.
Seven or eight mutants from the Tide Sect were killed in an instant.
But the Patriarch standing at the front was not afraid. He said coldly:
"All sacrifices are worth it, stop them."
Right now.
The twelve mutants of the Tide Sect actually chose to slit their own throats.
The blue storm reaches high into the sky.
They sacrificed themselves.
then.
Created a [storm cliff] that was insurmountable and blocked all kinetic energy projectiles.
The dark blue wind wall deflected like a wall of sighs, blocking all missiles fired from a distance.
“Naval aid.
Is this part of your plan?
Kevin, I really admire your strong logical reasoning.
But that's all. "
The leader continued to approach the room with the reduced number of cultists.
Hear their cries.
Su Wen stood in the room but acted very calm.
He had briefly read through the manual left by the coastal scientist.
then.
I also saw the last handwritten text a father left for his daughter:
(After 13.8 billion years, from singularity to heat death, we have spanned countless galaxies, from quarks to atoms, from nucleic acids and proteins to Homo sapiens.
Human beings should not be afraid of danger, because we once started from the singularity, looked at the Black Eye Galaxy, stopped in the spiral arms of the Milky Way, were attracted by the corona of the sun, and finally settled in the waves of the ocean.
Phyllis.
my daughter.
If you have witnessed the glimmer of every wave blooming.
Then you will probably never be afraid of the vast sea in front of you again. )
"Some people will still be remembered by civilization even if they are completely gone."
Su Wen was silent,
"And some monsters, even the blood they spilled when they died.
Every drop.
I think it's a sacrilege for this coast. "
He closed the notebook.
Then he solemnly handed it to the girl next to him, and at the same time gently comforted:
"Don't worry, wait for me here."
Looking out the window at the huge number of deep-sea aberrations.
He calmly opened the door of the research institute, looked at the oppressive patriarch of the Tide Sect from a distance and said:
“I am indeed just a first-order transcendent, a bystander.
but.
Your conclusion is wrong.
Big mistake.
Because I'm not alone. "
moment.
The warm lantern glowed in the cemetery.
A string of brilliant sparks rose into the sky.
A silent oath followed:
[I mourn the dead, just like Helena swears an oath for the living]
[Only silence gives birth to words; only darkness becomes light; only death gives rise to new life; fireflies fall into the void, shining brightly. 】
[I am the extraditer of the forgotten people - 'The afterglow of the light' - Branlett]
Su Wen thought of the additional conditions given by Foss-Constance when he provided the sacrifice ceremony of the Storm Gryphon Fogaro:
[The more serious the oath you make, the easier it is to get the blessing of the gods.
But on the contrary, the road ahead will become more and more bumpy. This is a rule followed by both the Zhengshen Sect and the Abyss Sect. 】
At that time he had not yet received the gaze of 'Afterglow' Branlett.
but now.
Everything is different.
Su Wen raised the lantern with his left hand and touched his chest with his right hand.
He said with great solemnity:
"Branlett, Kevin Ed hereby swears that if the will of the dead is not enough to bring salvation, I am willing to sacrifice my life to open a way for the living."
moment.
The dim light of the lamp rose.
The silver sea is projected as magnificent as the Milky Way.
The familiar sigh also sounded in Su Wen’s ears:
[Do you really understand the weight of life? 】
"yes."
[Even so, do you still have the consciousness to face death? 】
"yes."
[Do you really understand the despair of death? 】
"yes."
[Even so, are you still willing to carry countless wills that have faded away with hope for thousands of years on this coast? 】
"yes."
【Never forget your promise today. 】
"Compared with death, the most terrifying thing is probably the loss of hope."
【very good】
【Let’s go forward with the light】
【I never left】
[I am the extraditer of the forgotten people - 'The afterglow of the light' - Branlett]
【Until your journey reaches its end】
【At that time, we will meet again. 】
Behind Su Wen, the emblem belonging to the gods lit up, and at the same time, more lights rose.
Those hazy, warm and soft lights.
It’s not just about guiding souls after death.
The afterglow of the lights must shine on all beings with souls all the time, until the moment of their death.
Even if he is never noticed, he is still never tired or bored.
With silent charity and equal compassion.
