Xu Shiqing closed the eyes of the dead wolf. Birth, old age, sickness and death, the cycle of all things are all blessings from nature.
Over the past few days, he'd seen too many lives die, but he'd also witnessed the rebirth of all things. That feeling was different from when he was with Gu Yi and the others. In the apocalypse, every living thing was dangerous: animals, plants, and even humans. Life and death weren't given any meaning beyond their own.
The same is true on Nachu, but unlike then, death here is also rebirth. Fleshly life dies, transforms into nutrients, and new life is born upon it. This cycle is nature's most mysterious and dangerous, yet also its most fascinating, essence.
The elf lowered his head, and recited the maxims of the holy scriptures in awe and solemnity, praying for the unfortunate death of this companion who had been with him for so long.
"May you go to the Kingdom of God..."
The sky on the grassland became brighter.
The gods of nature waited for the ceremony to end, and then transformed the wind into words.
(Your practice has reached perfection)
He declared (sufficient for the priesthood)
Xu Shiqing didn't move. His long hair and the hem of his clothes looked like a flower blooming on the ground.
The wind seemed to be sighing.
(Death is the beginning of everything) He said, and the lion, attracted by the smell of blood, slowly approached and buried itself in the wolf's body to feast on it.
The chewing sound was like some kind of scary reptile.
(Pani, life is continued on death, like layers of shells) He whispered (Dance for them - and for me)
(For My Holiness, My Gift and My Mercy)
(Penny, please please me)
Xu Shiqing's eyelashes kept trembling, and he felt a sadness, a sadness that surged from the bottom of his heart.
The wind grew heavier, picking up the grass, the ribbons around the elves' ears, the hair ornaments, and the sounds of nature.
A ceremony to become a priest began.
Pani performed a pleasing dance, as if performing a sacrifice to nature.
Alger held the terminal, facing the endless prairie.
She was beautiful, truly beautiful. Alger couldn't find any planet with more beautiful grass or a more beautiful sky.
but.
These were not the reasons why she had Alger face a star network without a network and unable to use a map to locate it.
Seriously, are there still places in the interstellar world that lack StarNet coverage? Or have the people here been drug addicts in their past lives and are able to resist the temptation of the StarNet?
Alger stared blankly at the terminal for a moment, then he had to face a reality. That was, before the soldiers escorting him discovered their beloved commander was missing and came looking for him, Alger had to survive in this deserted prairie.
Relying on his current body which is no different from waste.
The Admiral leaned against the door of the aircraft, thinking to himself how bad his luck was. He was in a bad mood and ran out to relax, but the aircraft flew the wrong way, had no signal, and finally ran out of energy and was forced to land.
He didn't think it was his fault. In fact, Alger's personality had never been very good, especially after he woke up seven years ago, when it plummeted.
The aftereffects of the shattered spiritual sea were not only reflected in his increasingly weak body, which could no longer support training and needed to be maintained by precious medicinal herbs, but also in Alger's increasingly sensitive and paranoid personality.
Nightmares, a chaotic sea of minds, the inability to successfully connect to the Bird, the pitying gazes from all kinds of people. What exactly is mental power? Before losing him, Alger had never considered this question.
He was born with S-level mental power, and the spiritual form he condensed was also majestic. How could a person ponder the meaning of something he already possessed? For Alger at that time, he simply possessed it, and this knowledge was enough.
Thinking of this, Alger gasped violently and felt himself begin to sweat. In his already scarred spiritual sea, the garbage accumulated due to his depressed mood seemed to be increasing. This made the spiritual body roar non-stop and violently began to destroy wantonly.
In the uncontrollable pain, Alger could only use all his strength to vent his manic mental energy. His spiritual body, the giant gray wolf, leaped out of his body, further squeezing the space in the aircraft.
——He is about to have a mental riot.
No, it can't.
Reason struggled and shouted at him, you can't die here!
Alger! Your family, your friends, they're all still on the Imperial Capital... and now you've messed it all up! How could you just die?!
He grabbed his hair again, almost pulling it out. The pain in his scalp briefly distracted him from the mental pain, but it was only a drop in the bucket.
Alger couldn't help but think about his slowly weakening body. He used to be so high-spirited and a child of destiny, but now he felt so unwilling and even resentful.
The gray wolf howled in pain, squeezed in the narrow space of the aircraft. Due to its owner's confusion, it couldn't even control its body from shrinking.
Just as he was on the verge of despair, a crisp sound like a giant axe splitting the sky and earth apart brought Alger back to clarity from chaos in an instant.
He was panting heavily and had not yet come to his senses.
Ding-ling, ling-ling——
What is that?
The Admiral, sweating profusely, pushed himself up from the ground. He was shocked to find that his spiritual body, the gray wolf, had gradually calmed down, even as if attracted by something.
Alger subconsciously pursued that attraction. He opened the door, and the crisp sound of collision became louder and louder. The grassland wind suddenly rushed into the aircraft, carrying with it the refreshing fragrance of grass.
He approached the source of the sound, walking, running, and then rushed into the spring of Nachu Star in such a mess.
