Chapter 123
Everything Lu Yunwan did fell into Chu Xuanzhou's eyes:
Under the double impact of the explosion and corrosive gas, Lu Yunwan's mech was covered with spider web-like cracks, as if it would break apart in the next second.
The mecha was silent, but Chu Xuanzhou could see hatred and determination from the silent metal.
"Lu Yunwan!!"
"Let's go!"
He turned on the communication device and called out Lu Yunwan's name loudly, his eyes tearing apart.
The fear of losing Lu Yunwan struck again, and Chu Xuanzhou's mind went blank. He drove the mech completely by instinct, facing the storm and the shock wave, and headed towards Lu Yunwan's direction.
At this time, the cockpits of Lu Yunwan and Pei Zhaoan's mechs were almost touching each other.
The window of the mecha was pitch black, and nothing could be seen with the naked eye, but Pei Zhaoan had an illusion——
He seemed to see Lu Yunwan's anger and determination on the other side of the window.
Thinking of this, Pei Zhao'an slowly dropped his hand from the operating panel, and then laughed loudly.
Thinking of Lu Yunwan showing such an expression because of him, Pei Zhaoan put death aside.
"It's a pity..." Pei Zhao'an muttered to himself, "You should be very beautiful now, right?"
Lu Yunwan's eyes might be darker than usual, and his crow-feather-like eyelashes trembled from overexcitement.
Lips that always lack much blood will become more and more red...
The alarm in the cabin was still screaming, but Pei Zhao'an closed his eyes at this moment, imagining how wonderful it would be if Lu Yunwan showed such an expression to him somewhere else.
He is really terminally ill.
However, at this moment on this planet named Nadette, the calmest person may be Lu Yunwan who is doing the craziest actions.
Lu Yunwan was expressionless. He stared at the instrument not far away, estimating the degree of damage to Pei Zhaoan's mecha in his mind.
80.00%...
80.00% Three...
When it reaches 90.00%, Pei Zhao'an's mecha will completely lose its ability to restart, and will be trapped to death on Nadette.
Through the window, he saw that most of the outer paint of the armor on the opposite side had been corroded.
The enemy of the year is being sent to perish by himself.
At this moment, Lu Yunwan's ears buzzed, and then familiar figures appeared in front of him again.
It was his parents, Lu Sirong and Jing Wanqi.
Obviously knowing that this is an illusion, but Lu Yunwan's eyes suddenly softened.
In a trance, he stretched out a hand, as if he wanted to touch them, and then retracted his hand carefully the next moment.
The poisonous gas from Nadette rushed in through the cracks in the mech, and Lu Yunwan's nose was filled with a fishy and sweet smell.
"Are you here to pick me up?" he asked.
Hearing Lu Yunwan's words, his parents looked at each other, and after a few seconds, his mother smiled and shook her head at him: "No... Yunwan, we are here to say goodbye to you."
"Farewell? I thought—"
Lu Yunwan's unspoken words were interrupted by his father: "You will stay, you already have a new concern, don't you?"
Lu Sirong also smiled, and blinked, "Brother, you were not afraid of death at all before." Finally, he turned his gaze to a corner of the light screen, "But now you are afraid of death."
Lu Yunwan was surprised by his younger brother's words.
Subconsciously, he followed Lu Sirong's gaze and looked forward to the left.
...that was the red communication dot that kept blinking.
The signal on Nadette was extremely poor, and only Chu Xuanzhou, who was on the same frequency as him, could send communication smoothly.
In fact, Lu Yunwan had already noticed the red dot when it flashed for the first time, but until now, he has never touched that button...
Maybe Lu Sirong is right... Lu Yunwan clenched his fists violently.
If it was normal, I would definitely accept the communication, bid farewell to Chu Xuanzhou, and even continue to ask him to manage the empire heartlessly.
But today, Lu Yunwan dared not connect to Chu Xuanzhou's communication from beginning to end.
Lu Yunwan bit his lips tightly.
"Okay, okay," Jing Wanqi rubbed Lu Sirong's head, then she cast her loving eyes on Lu Yunwan, and she said to Lu Yunwan very solemnly, "Yunwan, you have been here for more than ten years!" Thanks for your hard work……"
Jing Wanqi's words finally brought Lu Yunwan back from his thoughts.
The word "farewell" came to his mind again.
Lu Yunwan didn't even think about it, subconsciously shook her head and said loudly: "Don't go—"
He didn't know what was wrong, he had been tormented by these hallucinations for many years, but now that he heard that they were about to "say goodbye" to him, Lu Yunwan's heart suddenly became empty.
... After this farewell, will we never see each other again?
Thinking of this, the hallucinations seemed to become less scary.
But the moment Lu Yunwan had this idea, the figures in front of him gradually faded a lot.
The former regent, Lu Yunwan, turned against the mermaid in order to gain power. He stood in line with the enemy, took every step of the way, and lived carefully and prudently.
Along with power, unwillingness and humiliation also swell.
But now, Lu Yunwan finally got rid of the disguise completely and no longer compromised.
Pei Zhao'an is his biggest opponent...and today, he is about to die by his own hands.
Lu Yunwan's obsession is disappearing little by little.
The time to say goodbye has really come.
Lu Yunwan stared at the front, until his mother said with red eyes: "Don't cry." Only then did Lu Yunwan realize that he didn't know when tears would flow down his face.
The hallucinations are getting weaker and weaker.
"Don't go, don't go..." Lu Yunwan's brain was in a mess, he didn't even know what he was talking about, "If it hurts a little bit, don't go...don't leave me."
"I don't want, I don't want to be alone anymore..."
At the moment when the figure was about to disappear, the familiar voice sounded in Lu Yunwan's ear again:
"Look ahead."
"Yun Wan, you won't be alone."
At the last moment, when Lu Yun pulled the world back to silence forever, Lu Sirong shouted loudly: "Goodbye, brother!"
"do not forget me!"
"But come back to me later—"
Needle drops could be heard quietly inside the mecha.
Lu Yunwan's brain finally let him go, only the sound of heavy breathing remained in his ears.
He heard that he responded softly to Lu Sirong: "Okay."
Accompanied by this word, the illusion that had tortured Lu Yunwan psychologically for an unknown number of years was gradually disappearing, but as the pain faded away, he couldn't help but lay down on the steering wheel.
Lu Yunwan's face was buried in his sleeves, only the slight shrugging of his shoulders leaked his emotions.
"goodbye……"
"Goodbye." He whispered goodbye to everything in the past.
All this happened in just half a minute.
-
Star Nadette was like a purgatory, the ground trembled suddenly for some reason, and magma rushed along the cracks, and appeared near the mech in a blink of an eye.
Sensing it, the mecha finally stopped the alarm.
"The escape pod is open." Following the AI's automatic alarm, the cockpit broke away from the mech in an instant and flew away.
The escape cabin bulkhead located inside the mech is stronger and airtight, which can maximize the survival time of the people in the cabin.
But the disadvantages are also obvious:
Escape capsules are generally used in space situations, and the power structure is weakened for safety during design.
Therefore, except for the initial ejection, the escape pod can hardly fly long distances.
This is not a problem in space. The people in the cabin just need to continue to float with the cabin and wait for rescue.
But the sky of Star Nadette has been filled with flames. Under the pull of five times the gravitational force of ordinary habitable planets, the escape capsule was pulled back by this planet before it could fly far.
It hit the ground hard, and then fell down a canyon along the jagged boulders.
With a loud bang, Lu Yunwan's vision became dark, and at the same time, there was a sharp pain in his chest.
"Cough cough cough..."
Experience tells Lu Yunwan that his ribs are probably broken.
The escape pod plummeted again, and at this moment, light finally penetrated into the escape pod.
Lu Yunwan looked out with difficulty——
The good news is that I am far away from the magma, but the bad news is that the escape capsule has been deformed and is firmly stuck in the complex mountain.
... Could it be that I am really going to die this time?
Under the severe pain, Lu Yunwan couldn't help thinking wildly.
It stands to reason that [-]% or [-]% of my wish back then has been fulfilled, and now there is only a short time before it can be fulfilled. Even the last enemy is doomed to be trapped to death on Nadette.
He seeks benevolence and obtains benevolence, which is extremely perfect.
No matter which way you look at it, you should face all endings calmly.
But Lu Yunwan was not reconciled at this time.
...If he really died here, wouldn't he have betrayed the promise he made just now?
If he really died here, what should Chu Xuanzhou do?
Lu Yunwan suddenly regretted that he hadn't said goodbye to Chu Xuanzhou properly.
He even regretted the decision to keep Chu Xuanzhou by his side in the first place.
...If he hadn't done that, Chu Xuanzhou might have encountered some setbacks, but this still wouldn't change his future as the star master.
On the contrary, Chu Xuanzhou no longer needed to be sad for himself.
The pain in the chest was spreading, and Lu Yunwan's breathing became more and more heavy.
He leaned towards the driver's seat with difficulty, trying to make himself feel better.
It was at this time that Lu Yunwan's eyes once again fell on the still flashing communication light spot.
He hesitated and raised his hand, approaching the button little by little.
listen to it?
Listen to Chu Xuanzhou's voice again.
As soon as this idea came up, Lu Yunwan's finger was already on the button.
The next moment, Chu Xuanzhou's desperate voice appeared next to his ears.
This is a message.
"Yun Wan, how are you doing, Yun Wan?"
"Answer me, can you hear me?"
Then there was a burst of confusion, and after half a minute, Chu Xuanzhou's voice appeared in Lu Yunwan's ear again:
"No, the canyon is too narrow, there is no way for mechs to get close to recover your escape pod."
"Lu Yunwan, wait for me."
-
After saying the last few words, there was only a burst of noise in the communication message, no matter how Lu Yunwan called, Chu Xuanzhou never replied.
"Chu Xuanzhou?"
"Chu Xuanzhou, where are you?! Can you hear me—"
Lu Yunwan's heart sank a little.
He struggled to sit up straight and looked up through the gap between the boulders.
And at this moment, Lu Yunwan saw the scene that will be remembered by him forever——
The huge mecha hovered directly above the canyon, and Chu Xuanzhou, who was wearing an ordinary military uniform, actually left the mecha and was exposed to the dangerous air of Nadette Star.
He jumped down from the cliff and appeared in front of Lu Yunwan at the fastest speed.
Lu Yunwan never replied to Chu Xuanzhou's communication, so until the moment he left the mecha and came to the bottom of the cliff, Chu Xuanzhou didn't know whether the people in the escape pod were alive or dead.
...but he came anyway.
Finally, Chu Xuanzhou appeared outside the escape cabin.
He didn't delay for a second, and directly used brutal force to tear open the severely deformed hatch of the escape cabin.
Then, meet Lu Yunwan's gaze.
"Chu Xuanzhou..." Lu Yunwan called him subconsciously.
Trembling, Chu Xuanzhou let out a long sigh of relief. He walked up to Lu Yunwan step by step, half-knelt beside the driver's seat, gently hugged Lu Yunwan's waist, and then buried his face in front of his belly.
Lu Yunwan could feel that Chu Xuanzhou's whole body was trembling uncontrollably.
The joy of regaining what was lost almost crushed Chu Xuanzhou, he muttered: "I thought, I thought you were dead..."
Lu Yunwan slowly put his hand on Chu Xuanzhou's cheek: "No, I won't, I won't die." He heard that his voice was no longer as careless as before, and even choked up.
Like Chu Xuanzhou, Lu Yunwan was only wearing a simple military uniform, so it didn't take long for him to feel a chill in his abdomen.
... It was Chu Xuanzhou's tears that wet Lu Yunwan's military uniform.
Realizing his gaffe, Chu Xuanzhou finally sucked his nose and stood up.
He quickly undid the safety device for Lu Yunwan, and said: "My mecha didn't face the explosion directly. I just landed from the equator where the corrosive gas is weak. Let's go out together and leave here in the mecha." , and pulled Lu Yun up.
Lu Yunwan knew that Chu Xuanzhou couldn't let him discover his injury now.
He gritted his teeth and suppressed the severe pain and nodded, "Okay."
Without delay for a second, the two quickly left the escape cabin.
The moment he actually set foot on the land of Star Nadette, Lu Yunwan truly realized what kind of planet it is.
Even if it is far away from the magma, the air is still too hot to ignore. According to Lu Yunwan's experience, the temperature here is at least [-] degrees Celsius.
Not only that, the sweet smell of poisonous gas in the air is countless times heavier than that in the mecha.
Lu Yunwan couldn't help coughing.
Chu Xuanzhou glanced at him, immediately tore off a piece of material from his shirt, and covered Lu Yunwan's mouth and nose: "Yun Wan bear with it, we can go up immediately."
Lu Yunwan nodded with difficulty, and firmly held back Chu Xuanzhou's hand.
Fortunately, although Lu Yunwan and Chu Xuanzhou were at the bottom of the canyon at this time, this happened to be a shallower part of the canyon, and the escape pod rolled down from the top to the bottom also created a relatively gentle path here. channel.
But it is still difficult for human beings to leave here, let alone Lu Yunwan's ribs were broken just now.
He coughed uncontrollably.
Accompanied by the expansion of the lungs, the ribs continued to stab Lu Yunwan's muscles and organs, bringing waves of pain that could not be ignored.
Normally, Lu Yunwan would regard it as a message of death from the heavens, but today, until the last moment, Lu Yunwan would not give up.
Be patient.
It's coming, right now.
Under the severe pain, Lu Yunwan could only look down at the jagged rocks on the ground, so as to ensure that he would not hinder Chu Xuanzhou.
So it wasn't until Chu Xuanzhou reminded him loudly, "Be careful!" Lu Yunwan found out what happened on Nadette Planet——
Big drops of magma turned into raindrops, falling from the sky!
Accompanied by bursts of "stabbing" sounds, it hit the ground.
This is a sign of death.
-
Although the military uniform has the basic function of preventing fire, the magma accidentally splashed on Lu Yunwan's arm from the ground still caused a sharp pain in an instant.
Lu Yunwan clenched his hands again. He is often ridiculed by mermaids, and he knows how fragile the human body is.
If I was able to climb the steep cliff with perseverance just now, now Lu Yunwan knows that no matter what, it is impossible for him to complete this task...
After a moment of silence, he said, "Let me go."
"What did you say?" Chu Xuanzhou looked at Lu Yunwan in disbelief.
"I said, let me go," Lu Yunwan tried to break free, and at the end suddenly paused. He raised his eyes and smiled at Chu Xuanzhou, and said very gently, "I am very happy that you came to me at the last moment. It's gone." His dark eyes were ignited by the falling fire rain, and his smile was extremely clean.
"Thank you, you are the best person in this world to me." After saying that, Lu Yunwan felt that his words were a bit naive, but this was indeed what he thought in his heart.
But the one who answered Lu Yunwan was——
"To shut up!"
Lu Yunwan:? ?
The next moment, Chu Xuanzhou took off his military uniform, wrapped Lu Yunban tightly with his shirt, and then put the coat on his head.
He hugged Lu Yun with only one hand, and before the humans could react, he climbed up the jagged boulder with one hand.
However, the rain of fire above the head became denser at this time.
Lu Yunwan heard a faint "Zi La" sound coming from his ear...
This was the sound of fire and rain splashing on Chu Xuanzhou's bare shoulders.
Lu Yunwan immediately widened his eyes in horror: "Put me down! Chu Xuanzhou let me down!"
No matter how hard the mermaid's skin is, it can't stand such a toss!
Chu Xuanzhou didn't respond.
"Hurry up!" Lu Yunwan was anxious to death.
He could feel that Chu Xuanzhou's pace slowed down as the fire and rain intensified.
even become heavy.
Lu Yun put his arms around Chu Xuanzhou's waist, and at the moment the words fell, he suddenly felt a burst of warmth through the gloves... It was Chu Xuanzhou's blood.
The human line of sight was completely blocked by Chu Xuanzhou's shirt, and Lu Yun, who didn't know what was going on outside, was extremely anxious.
He wanted to pat Chu Xuanzhou's shoulders to make him stop, but in the end he could only hug Chu Xuanzhou tightly, using his arms to shield him from the fire and rain as much as possible.
"Let me down, you go by yourself..."
"Look to see if there is any sunken cave, you put me here first, and then go to the reinforcements, okay?"
Lu Yunwan choked up.
But unexpectedly, upon hearing his words, Chu Xuanzhou not only showed no intention of stopping, but even smiled softly: "Yun Wan, are you crying?"
"I do not have--"
"You're worried about me."
"Okay, don't talk, keep your strength!"
Chu Xuanzhou's steps became more and more difficult, and his voice also became difficult.
But he didn't listen to Lu Yunwan.
There was more and more blood on Lu Yunwan's hands. The mermaid's shoulders were too broad, and his arms couldn't block anything.
"You don't want to let me go, so just carry me on your back, okay?" Lu Yunwan was almost begging.
He must never be held in Chu Xuanzhou's arms like this again.
But the mermaid shook her head stubbornly.
At the end, Chu Xuanzhou smiled helplessly, and while continuing to move forward against the fire and rain, he gasped and said with difficulty: "Yun Wan... just treat me as a moral kidnapping. Cough cough... Didn't you say that , can't you propose marriage hastily? I...cough cough, I prepared for a long time on the capital planet, but...cough, but I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for that time. "
Through the white shirt, Lu Yunwan could vaguely see that the fire rain on Nadette Star had become terrifyingly dense.
It seemed that Chu Xuanzhou was not carrying himself up the cliff, but was leaving hell step by step.
"Don't talk about it, let's talk about it when we go back to Capital Star, can we talk about it when we go back?"
Chu Xuanzhou didn't listen to Lu Yunwan's words, he said stubbornly and aggrievedly: "Sorry, ahem...maybe a bit sloppy and crude, but I'm afraid that there will be no chance..."
His footsteps stopped suddenly, and then he lowered his head when Lu Yunwan was unprepared, and kissed Lu Yunwan's lips through a layer of pure white cloth.
Chu Xuanzhou said, "Yun Wan, will you be my partner?"
At this moment, the fire and rain all over the sky seemed to have become the foil of the ceremony, and that layer of military uniform became the pure white gauze at the engagement ceremony.
"Also, never give up. Look, even if you come this far, don't you still have me by your side?"
Lu Yun held Chu Xuanzhou's waist tightly with both hands, and he lay on the mermaid's chest, not knowing whether he was crying or laughing.
Lu Yunwan's rationality obviously reminded him all the time that Chu Xuanzhou liked to be pitiful the most, and he who was judged as the "protagonist" by the super optical brain would definitely not die.
But at this moment, Lu Yunwan's rationality instantly collapsed under the emotional impact of sadness or joy.
He heard himself whispering in Chu Xuanzhou's ear, "Okay..."
"As long as you leave here, leave here alive and well."
Under the erosion of fire and rain, the cold skin of the mermaid has never been warmer than it is now.
At the moment when Lu Yunwan's words fell, Chu Xuanzhou lowered his head and kissed the top of the human hair again through the material of his clothes.
Then he hugged Lu Yunban tightly with one hand, narrowed his dark purple eyes, and suddenly rushed towards the cliff against the fire and rain.
The mermaid's fingers were deeply embedded in the mountain wall, leaving a trail of blood, but Chu Xuanzhou didn't seem to feel anything.
He is a good student and always listens to Lu Yunwan the most.
He can face death calmly with Lu Yunwan.
But since Lu Yunwan said so...then he will also leave Nadette together with Lu Yunwan, and leave Nadette alive and well.
He wants to put on a white dress for Lu Yunwan with his own hands, and stand side by side on the peak of the interstellar world.
