Chapter 860 Awakening
"Xiao Yi" Zhuang Mingxu controlled his consciousness and walked forward. Even though he knew he couldn't actually touch the other person, he still made a move to hug him.
"I think you can hear me if you want."
Everything in the illusion and the experiences in reality were repeatedly recalled in his mind, and Zhuang Mingxu finally felt at ease to make up for the years that Lu Weiyi had missed. He was sure that those were the times that he did not know about but were actually experienced by Lu Weiyi. It was because of those days that he became the strong and steady he later became.
He had a lot to say, including saying sorry, but he felt that these three light words were not enough to express his guilt. Every time he resisted the unfairness of his fate, it became a heavy burden on Lu Weiyi.
Forcing him to stand higher and possess greater power is only to support him to stand above the crowd with dignity and achieve his confidence and composure.
He knew nothing, yet enjoyed this honor with peace of mind, and even hypocritically hoped that fate would give him an equal supernatural power.
Zhuang Mingxu laughed at himself, thinking how greedy he was.
He thought of Lu Weiyi's tearful eyes when he asked him, "Will you blame me for changing your destiny?"
How much self-blame must he have to trap himself in memories and be unwilling to face the present.
Zhuang Mingxu leaned over and wanted to kiss his forehead, but heard his almost silent question, "Why?"
"What?"
"Why do you want me to be reborn? I don't want to be reborn." Lu Weiyi seemed to be asking himself, or asking the culprit who inexplicably brought him back to the past.
He was bullied and exploited by his family in his short half-life, but there were people who were willing to give everything to protect him. He enjoyed the most unique preference, but also killed his enemies after losing it.
He had no regrets and no pursuits, but fate allowed such a person to be reborn.
After being reborn, he has to face a completely different trajectory. Every difference reminds him that this is the change brought about by his rebirth.
He is the culprit that caused everything.
This made him feel guilty and blame himself, but he couldn't change it.
After struggling with it day after day, you will eventually see the past when you upgrade and completely trap yourself.
"Maybe..." Zhuang Mingxu thought for a moment and said with a smile, "I just want to see the normal you so much."
"After taking you away from Kyoto, I did a lot of things, including seeing a psychologist, praying to gods, and donating money to charity. I did not miss out on scientific means to help you recover, nor did I want to miss out on metaphysics."
"I'm trying any method that might give you a chance to recover." Zhuang Mingxu found himself laughing when he thought about all the stupid things he had done, even the experiences of being cheated. He looked at the white nothingness in front of him and whispered, "I miss the younger you so much."
More than 20 years have passed, and Zhuang Mingxu can still remember the young Lu Weiyi, a child standing in the yard with fluffy hair that looked like a quilt that had been dried in the sun. He would hold his hand and trot across the courtyard, leaving behind a burst of wanton laughter.
That was the warm sunshine of his harsh childhood. He should have enjoyed the best things, but he was tortured to the point of having no life left.
"I regret it very much..." I regretted that I went to the army when he needed me the most and did not return for many years.
I spent the rest of my life making up for it, but I never saw his reckless look again.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Mingxu felt a little disappointed. After all, the damage he had suffered was not so easy to make up for. "If it were you as a child, why would you feel guilty?"
He was a child who was spoiled by everyone. When he did something bad, he would act like a spoiled child and be cute, and would cry and beg for forgiveness, but he would never keep it in his heart and torture himself.
The excessive love he received gave him the confidence to face all the consequences.
Zhuang Mingxu lay face to face in front of Lu Weiyi, holding his shoulders and looking straight into his eyes, "When all my teammates suspected that I had drugged and betrayed everyone, you pleaded with Li Zhuang and said firmly that I would not do that."
"He asked you why you were so confident, and you said it was because you were favored. So why do you think I would blame you now?"
"Xiao Yi," he said half-jokingly, "you should say with confidence, "I am willing to change your destiny."
"It's your pleasure!"
The thick fog around him seemed to be touched by invisible energy, making a vibrating buzzing sound. Zhuang Mingxu, who had no form to begin with, felt as if he had been shaken into countless ripples. If someone could see him at this moment, he would definitely be twisted like a wave.
But he saw his own shadow in Lu Weiyi's gradually focused eyes.
"This is the privilege I give you, and you can enjoy it for the rest of your life."
Zhuang Mingxu's eyes were gentle enough to tolerate everything about him, which made Lu Weiyi feel that no matter what he did, he could be forgiven, as if the tangled past was not worth mentioning.
He leaned over and leaned on his shoulder, sobbing silently, "You could have had...very powerful powers."
"The reason I'm obsessed with superpowers is that I hope to share your pressure and protect you from the wind and rain." Zhuang Mingxu stroked his back, "Our Xiaoyi is a small salted fish. Only when I become stronger will you have the opportunity to lie down."
"You should have a strong team and be the most respected captain."
"Don't we have a strong team now? I am still the only ordinary person base commander, and there are still countless people who admire me."
"you……"
"Xiaoyi, you have made up for all that I lost, so you don't owe me anything and there is no need to feel guilty." Zhuang Mingxu looked at Lu Weiyi seriously, "You should be happy about your rebirth."
"Brother Damu is still alive, Dean is sunny and cheerful, Xu Sa is stable and strong, and Ai Yi is still with us..."
"If all these can be exchanged for me simply by losing my superpowers," Zhuang Mingxu shrugged, "I would be willing to do so."
Lu Weiyi was influenced by his thoughts and seemed to think it made sense, "It should be me who should be replaced."
Zhuang Mingxu flicked his forehead and asked, "Is there any difference between yours and mine?"
"If you didn't have super powers, I would make you someone that others would look up to. Now I'm the one without super powers, but you've supported me to where I am today, right? This is what a soul mate is all about."
Zhuang Mingxu was a man who was very cunning in the business world. It was easy for him to fool a kid's mind and make him follow his lead. His flattering words made Lu Weiyi feel that he was being too picky.
He pursed his lips and said nothing, then heard Zhuang Mingxu ask, "Do you want to stay here?"
The doting in his eyes never changed. All the tenderness of this man's life was placed on herself. "If you want, then we can stay here forever, just you and me. It happens that there are many things I haven't seen, and I can relive them according to your memory."
Lu Weiyi felt embarrassed as if someone was peeping into his memory, "Then...what about them?"
He still remembered that he was a base commander and had responsibilities.
"You have taken on enough, and it's time for them to grow up." Zhuang Mingxu did not reveal any of the current situation, as that would become a weight in Lu Weiyi's choice and make his choice no longer from his heart.
"You just have to think about it, whether you are willing or not."
Even if he didn't say anything, Lu Weiyi could guess the situation the base would face, but he chose to stand by him, even if it meant giving up everyone.
At this moment, Lu Weiyi suddenly felt that he had regrets. He regretted that the time they lived together in the last life was too short.
Lu Weiyi held his hand, as if swearing, "I want to live with you."
Zhuang Mingxu smiled, as warm as the sunshine when a boy first fell in love, and he said "OK".
The energy around him fluctuated again, and Zhuang Mingxu felt like he was being gently sent out. The difference was that this time Lu Weiyi was staring at him.
"I'll wait for you outside," Zhuang Mingxu waved at him.
When he opened his eyes again, the first thing that came into his ears was Guan Wei's cursing voice, "Come on... I can't burn you to death."
"You bunch of bastards, sooner or later I will tear you into pieces."
"You unscrupulous beasts, sooner or later you will be punished and die a miserable death..."
Guan Wei's legs couldn't stand for a long time, so he knelt on one leg on the ground, and supported his body stubbornly with the other leg. The flamethrowers in his hands kept spraying flames around him. The high temperature burned his fingers, and the air was filled with the scent of flesh.
The weapons left on the ground had been used up, and he had only two left in his hands.
The mutated plants curled up and tried to get closer, but were blocked by the fireworks, and always hovered outside the burning range of the flames, ready to move.
It is conceivable what fate will await them when these last two guns are used up.
"Base Commander, hurry up, hurry up..."
"If I kill you, I will be a sinner. How can I have the face to go back to the base?"
Guan Wei was like a schizophrenic. After mumbling something, he shouted at the mutant plants, "Come on if you can, you coward..."
Zhuang Mingxu covered his forehead and said, "Even if the plant becomes a spirit, it should not be able to understand the meaning of a turtle."
"Base commander——!" Guan Wei turned around in surprise, and the weapon in his hand fell to the ground as he didn't hold it firmly. The mutated plants in the corresponding direction immediately rushed towards this side, but were quickly caught by Zhuang Mingxu, and a group of fire snakes were repelled.
"Don't relax." Glancing at the time, a long time had passed since the ten minutes he originally said. It must have been difficult for him to hold on. Zhuang Mingxu thanked him and said, "It's okay now."
"It's the base commander..." Guan Wei said in disbelief.
"Yeah," Zhuang Mingxu nodded, "buy him some time."
"I guarantee to complete the mission!" Guan Wei's voice was so loud and excited that it made Lu Weiyi's ears buzz when he just opened his eyes.
He struggled to get up, but he couldn't control his body after staying still for so long.
Zhuang Mingxu noticed it with his sharp eyes and immediately helped the man sit against the wall. "How do you feel?"
"It's okay." Lu Weiyi's voice was weak.
He scanned the space and noticed that the positions of many things had changed. Most importantly, the place where the crystal core was placed was empty.
All the crystal cores he stored in space are gone!
