Chapter 347 The Ending Worthy of the Ending
Slowly waking up from a deep sleep, Feng Qi's vision gradually became clear from blurry.
The memories before the coma came flooding back like a tide.
A few minutes later, he struggled to sit up and looked around.
The room he was in was not big. There were two instruments on the left side of the bed, with several hoses extending to connect to various parts of his skeleton-like body. On the screen of the instrument, several lifelines of different colors were fluctuating rapidly, walking out of a tortuous route map.
On the right side of the bed, the window was half open, and the white curtains swayed in the breeze, rubbing against each other and making a soft "rustling" sound.
The weather outside the window was clear, and the sun shone through the gaps between the leaves on the bed, leaving mottled light marks.
After a brief daze, the door was suddenly pushed open.
"Awake?"
Feng Qi turned his head and found that it was Wei Wei who came in.
At this time, she was wearing a white dress, rimless glasses, and holding a toolbox in her right hand.
The heavy dark circles made her look a little tired, as if she had not slept for several days.
"Sister Wei... am I back in Star City?"
Facing Feng Qi's question, Wei Wei smiled and nodded:
"According to your decision, the Dawnbreaker Army evacuated urgently after taking Future City. Now it has been seven days since the end of that battle, and you have been in a coma for seven days."
"Am I in the Scarlet Secret Base?"
"Of course not, this is the Star City Military Hospital. I also received a notice from Captain Gu and rushed here urgently."
Hearing this, Feng Qi was relieved.
He looked down at the skeleton-like body. There were still cracks all over the body, and at the same time, he could see the black curse energy wandering inside the cracks.
The curse on his body was obviously not broken.
If he was sent to the Scarlet Research Institute at this time, there would be a risk of being located and tracked.
The psychic race has many abilities, and perhaps they have the ability to rely on curses to locate and kill.
Once the Scarlet Secret Base is exposed to the eyes of the psychic race, the entire war line will be a complete failure.
"Don't worry, we have already considered the hidden dangers in this regard, so we chose to give you emergency treatment in the military hospital."
As if seeing through Feng Qi's thoughts, Wei Wei explained immediately, and then put the tool box in her hand on the bedside table.
"This makes me feel relieved." Feng Qi leaned back and leaned on the pillow.
"By the way, Sister Wei, where is the miracle ring now?"
"As you expected, this miracle ring has the location of the psychic tribe. Mu Qing did not bring it back to Star City, but sent it to the Tiger Soul Sub-base outside Star City to prepare for research there. But before I could go there, this sub-base was destroyed by the psychic tribe. Fortunately, the internal personnel were evacuated in advance, and there were no casualties, but the sub-base was completely destroyed."
After hearing this, Feng Qi felt regretful.
He had expected this result.
Originally, he planned to send this miracle ring to the Scarlet Secret Base and then give it to his future self.
But after being attacked by the curse, he realized that things were not that simple.
The psychic tribe obviously had a backup plan.
Sending him to the Scarlet Secret Base at this time would expose his biggest secret to the Psychic Clan.
Fortunately, before he fell into a coma, he chose to be cautious and asked Mu Qing not to bring the miracle ring back to the Scarlet Secret Base.
Otherwise, the intelligence obtained by the war line would be in vain.
Wei Wei lifted her long hair and hung it by her ears, then pulled out a stool from under the bed and sat down, then smiled at him and said:
"Now I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
"Bad news." "
The bad news is that I have tried many ways to remove the curse on you, but every time I clear a part of it, it will recover quickly. It can't be eradicated at all, and I suspect that the curse on you comes from a miracle item."
Feng Qi was mentally prepared for the fact that the curse on his body could not be eradicated after he opened his eyes and saw his physical condition, so he was not surprised.
What puzzled him was why Wei Wei thought that the curse came from a miracle item.
Thinking of this, he used telekinesis to ask:
"Sister Wei, why do you think this curse comes from a miracle item?"
"Because the curse energy in your body can multiply infinitely, and it can be restored no matter how many times it is cleared. This alone is not surprising. Many curse energies are rooted in the human body and absorb energy from the blood. As long as the host is not dead, the curse energy will never disappear like a maggot on the tarsal bone." "
But you are different. Your skeleton form does not have any energy for the curse to absorb. At that time, I thought that the curse energy in your body relied on absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to make itself multiply and recover quickly, but even if I sent you into a closed space without spiritual energy, the curse energy can still recover quickly."
"This obviously violates the law of conservation of energy. It seems that only miracle items have this function of transcending the power of rules."
After listening to Wei Wei's explanation, Feng Qi suddenly realized.
"In addition, I used the curse energy in your body on the little white mouse and found that a special symbol appeared on it."
As she said, Wei Wei reached out and opened the tool box placed on the bedside table and took out a tablet from it.
She clicked on the tablet several times in succession, and a video popped up.
She then pointed the screen at Feng Qi.
What appeared in front of Feng Qi was a transparent glass cover with a little white mouse in it.
As the video progressed, a test tube appeared above the little white mouse's head, and then a drop of pitch-black liquid dripped and hit the little mouse.
Suddenly, the little white mouse trembled all over, lying on the ground and kicking its legs. In the blink of an eye, it was eroded by the black power and turned into a pitch-black mouse.
At the same time, a string of symbols appeared on the back of the little mouse.
If you look closely, you can find that the last character of this string of symbols will change over time.
"What does this symbol mean?"
Wei Wei took back the tablet at this time, and said with a serious expression:
"This is the text of the domain world. I asked Minister Lin, who graduated from the old school and has studied the texts of various ethnic groups in the domain. He explained to me that this is the measurement text used uniformly by ethnic groups in a certain area of the domain world. You can understand it as a number for us humans!"
"So this is a countdown?"
"Yes, your life countdown." Wei Wei admitted frankly.
"It looks like I won't live long... So, what's the good news."
Hearing this, Feng Qi felt calm.
From the moment he went to war, he was ready to die in battle.
If death is inevitable, why should he be afraid of death.
"The good news is that by interpreting the text on the back of the little white mouse, Minister Lin said that you have about three months to live."
Feng Qi:...
Thinking about it carefully, this is indeed good news.
At least you can live for another three months.
"Can you save my brain?"
"The source of the curse is on your back. Cutting off the source will save it. There is no curse energy in your brain for the time being. You can come to the military hospital for chemotherapy regularly in the next few days. Don't let the curse spread to your brain."
Hearing this, Feng Qi breathed a sigh of relief:
"It is indeed good news."
"By the way, how is Mu Qing?" "
She faced the curse attack directly. Logically, her situation is more serious than yours, but she swallowed and digested the curse energy. Obviously, the scarlet rune crystal on her body is far more terrifying than the curse energy."
Feng Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Wei Wei took out a special glove and a tube of blood from the tool box.
"Restore your body first."
Feng Qi heard it and immediately took the glove and put it on his left hand.
After triggering it with telekinesis, the concentrated blood in the glass tube suddenly turned into rich blood and qi, which continued to flow into his body.
The originally shriveled heart gradually resumed beating under the filling of blood and qi.
After a few minutes.
Feng Qi's mind changed in an instant, and flesh and blood tissue continued to grow on the surface of his body, and he soon recovered his human form.
But it was different from what it used to be.
There were twisted black lines on his body, like hideous centipedes clinging to his body surface.
Waves of weakness came over him.
At the same time, a string of characters appeared on his back.
The last character was jumping and changing like the one on the back of the experimental mouse, like a countdown to life, and every change would take away a ray of his life.
"Aqi, I'm going back. How are you going to spend these three months?"
"Don't worry about me. You are the core figure of the Scarlet Research Institute. The situation in Star City should not be good now. It may be attacked by external forces at any time. I will feel at ease if you go back earlier."
Feng Qi smiled at this time, and there was no fear of death on his face.
After chatting for a while, Wei Wei stood up to say goodbye and took the toolbox away.
Next, she will return to the Scarlet Secret Base, isolated from the world, and begin to interpret and study the data files brought back from the top-secret room.
As the sky darkened, Feng Qi also went through the discharge procedures and left the military hospital.
While heading to the Tiger Soul Research Institute, he felt heavy-hearted.
Through communication with Wei Wei, he learned about the recent situation of Star City.
Now the whole Star City is in a state of preparation for war.
External public opinion is very unfriendly to Star City, and there are voices proposing to form a joint army to take action against Star City.
Among them, the most active response to the call is the Old City and the remaining military forces of Future City.
The flames of a new war have been ignited.
In the war against Future City, the Dawn Army lost nearly half of its combat power and suffered heavy losses.
Once the joint army is formed, the future of Star City is bleak.
In this battle, he gambled on the future of the whole city.
While gaining a lot of intelligence, he felt a strong sense of guilt in his heart.
For the future, for the greater good, it is indeed not wrong.
But every resident of Star City has the right to choose his own future. At least in the normal timeline, they will not know the truth, will spend the rest of their lives in a beautiful lie, and will not experience all kinds of cruelty.
It was he who punctured the lie and used the future of the human race and the greater good to pull all the people of Star City onto the road of war.
Now the future of Star City is at stake, and everyone will live in worry about the future.
He is guilty.
Taking a deep breath, he made a decision at this time.
He wanted to prove to the world that the people of Star City were innocent, they were just pawns bewitched by him. He
could bear all the blame alone.
He didn't know whether doing so could bring a glimmer of hope to the future of Star City, but it was the best he could do before he died.
Thinking of this, Feng Qi took out his mobile phone from his pocket and called the military.
He needed a medium to convey information to the outside world.
Create a way out for the people of Star City.
...
Two months later.
Feng Qi came to the tombstone of the Lord of the Mist, accompanied by Mu Qing, Lu Yue and others.
At this time, Feng Qi was so thin that his bones were covered with black lines. He sat on the ground like a candle in the wind, as if a gust of wind would blow out the fire of his life.
He picked up the tribute placed in front of the tombstone with difficulty and put it in his mouth, chewing it twice and swallowing it.
But the body soon gave a strong feedback, and the food he had just swallowed was soon vomited out.
Mu Qing stepped forward at this time, but was stopped by Feng Qi:
"According to the rules of the Misty Tribe, eating the offerings is a way to respect the deceased. If I don't eat them, I'm afraid he will beat me up."
As he spoke, Feng Qi stuffed the half-eaten biscuit in his hand into his mouth .
"Old Mi, this is the last time I come to see you. I'm almost done... Remember to protect me when you go down..."
As he spoke, Feng Qi's condition became more and more unstable. The sun was setting in the west
, and Feng Qi stood up with the help of Mu Qing.
He came to the edge of the cliff and looked into the distance.
A red sun was slowly sinking on the horizon. In
the distance, the mountains stretched endlessly, the stars in the sky were looming, snowflakes fell on his body, and the evening breeze blew on his face... Everything in this world seemed so beautiful.
"Aqi."
Turning his head to look at his side, Mu Qing's lips trembled slightly, and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Brother Qi!"
"Brother Qi!"
Looking at Lin Ran, Lu Yue and others, Feng Qi smiled with difficulty and said:
"Brothers, don't be so discouraged. I'm not dead yet... Anyway, this game didn't start well. I will lead you to become a god next time."
Looking at Feng Qi, who had a dim look in his eyes but said this confidently, everyone burst into tears and laughed.
Turning back and looking into the distance again.
Feng Qi's heroic heart rose infinitely.
Death is not terrible. Every death represents the rebirth of a brand new self.
It is precisely because of the countless sacrifices of himself in the past that this line of war has been steadily advanced.
He is moving forward on the road paved by the corpses of countless sacrifices, and will also become a stepping stone for his future progress.
Open your eyes in the ashes and be reborn in the ashes.
Such a fate has a beginning and an end, and is full of hope.
When his life was fading, Feng Qi felt his head lighten, and then a cold feeling surged into his brain.
The world in front of him gradually dimmed.
Looking at the rolling mountains under the stars, the familiar sound of the harmonica rang in his ears.
Snow fluttered in the cold, and the sound of the piano entered the heart.
Mu Qing said goodbye to Feng Qi in her own way, and her longing seemed to penetrate time and space and follow him.
"This life... seems to be over... Goodbye."
Feng Qi's thoughts stopped at this time.
Looking at Feng Qi held in Lin Ran's arms, the crystal in Mu Qing's eyes slipped away, shining like a gem in the night, dragging a little red light into the soil.
Lin Ran, Lu Yue and others smiled on their faces, but tears were in their eyes.
It was just a song.
Mu Qing took the container that had been filled with Feng Qi's head and held it tightly in her arms, while Lin Ran held the remains, and everyone walked down the mountain together.
At this time, they found that countless Kongming lanterns rose from the foot of the mountain, reflecting the night sky red.
When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they found that countless figures were already waiting there.
Seeing the headless body of Feng Qi in Lin Ran's arms, their expressions became sad, and they clenched their fists, and countless voices rang out at this time.
"My ancestors sacrificed their lives to fight against the invasion of the domain, and I will never give in. Fengqi, you are a hero, not a sinner. We, the people of Star City, will always stand with you!"
"You want us to compromise with the darkness, but I can't do it. We will never recognize your identity as a sinner, even if Star City falls."
"The war line has been opened, but you want to give up halfway. I tell you, Fengqi, as long as there are still people alive in Star City, your hero title will not be deprived."
"No matter how many sacrifice lines you are a human traitor, but for this sacrifice line, we will protect your glory until everyone dies in battle!"
Amid the noisy shouts, the eyes of the people of Star City were firm.
They all received a notice from the military and knew that there was a way out in front of them.
That is to admit that they were bewitched by Fengqi, and then push all the charges on Fengqi.
In this way, they can clear themselves of the relationship.
Even if Star City will be cleared in the end, at least they are safe as ordinary people.
But this time, the people of Star City took the initiative to protest.
They were unwilling to compromise with the darkness and live in shame.
At this time, the road leading to the execution ground was crowded with people who came to see them off.
Students, teachers, scientific researchers, soldiers from the military... no matter what position they held, they all came at this time, wanting to send Feng Qi off for the last time.
Representatives of various forces in Xingcheng dressed in black and carried a huge coffin to Lin Ran.
The leading representative shouted loudly at this time:
"Send my Xingcheng hero Feng Qi to the Hero Cemetery!"
At that moment, countless people followed and shouted.
Mu Qing, Lin Ran and others also shed tears at this time, with smiles on their faces.
"Brother Qi, this war line can finally stand up."
After putting Feng Qi's headless corpse into the coffin, the people spontaneously made way.
The representatives of Xingcheng carried the coffin forward, followed by countless figures behind them.
Along the way, people kept throwing flowers on Feng Qi's coffin. This was the treatment that heroes in their eyes deserved. They
came to the fork at the end of the road.
The left side led to the execution ground, surrounded by Xingcheng people, as if to signal to the farewell team: This road is blocked. On
the other road leading to the Hero Cemetery, people retreated to both sides of the road, and the road was covered with flowers and fine wine.
The people of Star City want to tell Feng Qi with their actions.
They will not allow this line of sacrifice to end, which is not worthy of his efforts and dedication.
The escort team turned into a long dragon in Star City.
The sparks flickered, and the heroic souls entered the mausoleum.
This night, the people of Star City bid farewell to the hero.
This chapter took a long time to write, and I was always trying to find the mood, so the update is a bit late.
