Berrien quietly looked at the blood related brother in front of him. He looked at him very carefully, inch by inch, staring at Arendt from top to bottom. When he went straight to Arendt’s division, Berrien slowly asked, “Where is Anna?”
Arendt originally wanted to say “why do I have to tell you”, but the moment the words came to his mouth, it became: “She was sent away by father.”
“Where to?”
“Wilderness!” Arendt used all of his strength to force these words out of his mouth: “If she continues to stay at home, he will only sully our family. Right now, she’s probably begging for mercy from a man whose entire body is covered with mutated organizations. ”
Arendt started to become nervous under Berrien’s calm but huge pressure. He laughed, but his tears started to flow uncontrollably.
He had never seen Berrien like this.
In this family, Berrien had always been proud and arrogant. Forget about Arendt, the brother, even their father was looked down upon by Berrien. At home, Berrien would only show his gentle side in front of his sister Anna. As for the others, don’t expect Berrien to smile at them.
But the current Berrien was different, this bedroom was filled with Berrien’s Qi. He was like a calm sea, but under the surface, the waves were rough. The most important thing was that Arendt was not on the surface of the sea, but under the water!
Countless auras surged towards Arendt, but they were not gone. Even Arendt himself admired his willpower.
“Very good.”
As Berrien spat out these two words, the enormous pressure in the room disappeared completely. However, Arendt felt like there was a huge blank space there.
This blank space, what does it need to be filled? Otherwise, it would be like now, where Arendt felt extremely miserable.
Berrien stretched out two of his fingers and said: “Arendt, you have misunderstood something.”
“First thing, you shouldn’t have touched Anna. She’s my sister and the only person in the world I care about. More importantly, Anna is my shackle. The shackle of that beast in my heart! ”
Berrien said indifferently, but it was as if Arendt saw a pair of eyes looking at him.
The eyes of the fierce beast.
Berrien walked towards Arendt: “Second thing, you always think that I don’t dare to kill you, right? Actually, you made a mistake. It’s not that I don’t dare to kill you, it’s just that I don’t want to waste my strength. But now you have done something stupid, you know why father sent Anna away. Filthy of the family? Don’t joke around, Father only did it for you, you idiot with the right to formal inheritance. ”
While speaking, Berrien reached out and grabbed Arendt’s arm.
Berrien revealed a cruel smile, “If you go to hell, remember to apologize to Anna!”
In the next moment, over a million volts of electricity rushed into Arendt’s body, and Arendt’s shrill scream instantly sounded out in the room. The originally dark house suddenly lit up with lights from all the windows. Then came the disorderly sound of footsteps, which disturbed the peace of the night.
The night was long and short. Time is fair, not to be transferred by human will. In the night, the joyous ones hope to arrive late in the day; the painful ones wish for the night to end early. There was only time, only time. It persevered on its own path, taking seconds as a unit to take the next step with fairness. The night turned into day, announcing the arrival of yet another day.
It was still early in the morning, and the Asgard was quiet. After last night’s hubbub, even the most prosperous city would feel an inexplicable sense of emptiness. The first rays of sunlight fell on the graveyard on the eastern outskirts of the city as the holographic electronic panels in the sky calculated the rising sun.
The Hero’s Graveyard was a cemetery planned by the Asgard. It was used as a memorial to the heroes who had made great contributions to the city, allowing them to own a holy land of quiet and deep sleep.
In this cemetery, rows of metal tombstones were erected. The tombstone was carved with great names in Gothic English, names that might have been soldiers or generals. Regardless of their identity, without exception, they had sacrificed everything, including their lives, for the city of Asgard!
It was still early in the morning when a faint figure appeared on the smooth path of the cemetery. He held a bouquet of wildflowers in his hand, and his eyes swept over the gravestones. In the end, he stopped and divided the flowers into three bunches and placed them in front of the three tombstones.
Three tombstones, three names, from left to right were Johnny, Agatha, and Ma Pei.
He sat down, looked at the tombstone and said, “Are you used to your new home? “My friends.”
Sunlight shone on Zero’s handsome face. With a smile as light as smoke, he said, “I’m really sorry. I almost had to accompany you. But I did come back, and forgive my selfishness, but I felt that living could do more than dying. So let me live a little longer, and let me do something more meaningful. When that day comes, we’ll meet you guys again. ”
Just like this, Zero sat in front of the three tombstones and softly told them some things. He talked about a lot of things, from last night’s banquet to his dream, as if he could tell Agatha and the others about him if he were to talk about it.
“Dreams. Do you still remember, Agatha, that night in the wilderness, you asked me what my dream was? I told you I wanted to destroy the world. Only by destroying this world could the rules be reformulated. Now that I think about it, I’m too extreme. So I made some changes. I wanted to change the world. It allows the wife to be at ease while waiting for the husband to return, the child to live happily with his or her family members, the elderly to not have to work hard to allow their children to support themselves, and the men to not have to fight against metamorph s in order to gain the necessary survival … ” Zero smiled bitterly and said, “If that’s the case, then my dream is a bit wrong, and I seem to have overestimated my own abilities. “But I’m willing to try, even if I fail in the end. I want to try and create this world.”
“This is not only my dream, it is also the dream of most people. “This way, the burden on your shoulders will be a bit heavy.” He looked at the sky and felt a lot more relaxed after telling Agatha and the others everything that had happened.
He suddenly had a thought and a smile naturally appeared on his face.
“If it’s a heavy burden, why don’t we find a few more people to carry it with us?”
Feng’s candid voice sounded from behind Ling Xiao, who did not turn back, and a moment later, Feng was seated beside him. Su also came, she was dressed in the Apocalypse Hammer’s uniform, it was no longer as charming as the night before when he was wearing the formal attire, but instead had an additional valiance.
Su also gathered some flowers and placed them in front of Agatha and the other two’s tombstones.
Feng looked at the tombstone and said, “Let those who are dead rest, those of us who are still alive, naturally need to find work. If you don’t mind, we are willing to share the burden on captain’s shoulders, but it’s not free labor. ”
Su’s ears trembled, she turned and cursed: “Vulgar.”
Feng laughed and said: “You don’t need money to pick up girls to eat, this is called living, Su, do you understand?”
Su scoffed, “You are just a slut waiting to die, and yet you still have the nerve to call it a life. I feel embarrassed for you.”
Feng did not mind, he just rolled his eyes and said: “As expected, we are people from two different worlds.”
He looked at Zero, saying, “Those words are back. What does the captain plan to do next?”
“Prepare funds, talents, resources. Then we’ll start a company, and we’ll go our separate ways. Once the company has money, we can develop into a no-man’s-land in the wilderness. “In short, exploring, occupying and reexploring!” Zero briefly explained his idea, and then said, “But before that, I have something I want to say to you. Let’s go, I have already arranged for Eva to meet at her house for lunch, and also asked me to tell you guys some things. ”
“Perhaps, these things can help you avoid detours on the road of evolution.” Zero said with a mysterious smile.
On the holographic board, when the noon sun rose high up in the sky, the few of them appeared in Eva’s house in the outskirts. Eva’s house could not be considered small, it was just that the hall was not that spacious after four people were inside.
On the small table in the living room, there was water everywhere. Eva was not like Biansi, who could casually entertain guests with wine that was hidden away. In turbulent times, fine wine was one of the most expensive luxury goods that not just anyone could bring out.
The weather was hot, and Eva was wearing hot pants on her back. She sat cross-legged on the sofa, her bright and clean long legs making Feng stare at her courteously. However, Eva seemed to not have noticed at all, and lazily said to Su Yun: “If you have something to say, hurry up and say it, I’m really fast.”
During Eva’s time on the expedition, she stayed in the laboratory to help Victor. This woman was extremely interested in the rebirth plan, and wholeheartedly focused on gene and biochemical research. She had a similar feeling to Victor. Today, he was called out for a meeting, but he was a bit absent-minded and seemed to be a bit impatient.
Looking at the three people in the hall, he couldn’t help but sigh. It was a small gain to think that he had come all the way here alone and now had his own companions, a laboratory and a “career” that was still being planned.
He took a deep breath and looked at these three comrades who would be the core members of his team. He asked, “What do you think is the origin of the world? Or perhaps the universe itself?”
This question, even the absent-minded Eva began to seriously consider it. Feng scratched her head and said: “This is kind of philosophical, to be honest, this is not my strong point.”
Su rolled his eyes and asked: “Do you have strong points?”
Feng immediately jumped up and proudly said while trying his best to straighten his waist: “All the beauties that have slept with me know where my strength lies!”
The comrade-in-arms in Zero’s heart immediately disappeared. He shook his head with a headache and said, “I think we should be more serious.”
At this time, Eva said in a serious tone, “Source energy, do you mean energy?”
With just one sentence, it caused Feng, whose face was full of arrogance, and even Su, who was grinding her teeth, to quieten down.
Zero nodded, and said, “That’s right, the universe’s source is energy. The wind blows, the sun rises and the moon sets, and the waves rise, all of them are manifestations of energy activity. ”
