"Marshal...Marshal, wake up!"
An impatient voice sounded in my ears.
Xu Qiuqian opened her eyes and was a little unresponsive for a moment, but the person in front of her was a subordinate she was familiar with.
"Yasheng, what's wrong?" She sat up, covering her head.
"Several more black holes have appeared in the Miluo Galaxy. The Star Devouring Beasts in the black holes are pouring out continuously. We have lost too many people and can no longer bear it. Marshal, what should we do?"
Hearing this, Xu Qiuqian gradually reacted.
As more and more black holes appear over the years, more and more star-devouring beasts appear, and it has reached the point of being a disaster.
Recently, two black holes appeared in the Miluo Galaxy.
As the marshal and commander-in-chief of the First Army, she was ordered to come and destroy the Starry Sky Devouring Beasts, but for some reason, there were so many of them this time, and after the First Army appeared, these Starry Sky Devouring Beasts became even more crazy.
She didn't notice a Starry Sky Devouring Beast sneaking in and running towards her.
Then the explosion of the mecha and the Star Devouring Beast knocked her unconscious.
"Where are our reinforcements?"
"We've already called them, but the Miluo Galaxy is far away, and it will take at least three days to get there."
Three days...
They suffered heavy losses, with the damage rate of their mechas reaching 70%. Now there are several black holes. They may not be able to hold out for even a day, let alone three days.
Xu Qiuqian felt depressed, but did not show it. Instead, she looked as if everything was under control.
"Let's go." She stood up.
Seeing this, his subordinates suddenly became anxious.
"Marshal, you can't go! Once you go there, those space-devouring beasts will..."
"Don't say more." Xu Qiuqian interrupted him, "I know what's going on."
If she and the group protecting her didn't go, the result that awaited them would be the annihilation of the entire army.
She couldn't bear to watch her entire army die.
Seeing that she had made up her mind, the subordinate's eyes turned red, but he did not stop her. He just silently swore in his heart that he must protect the marshal and not let the Star Devouring Beast eat him!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Damn Star Devouring Beast!
Xu Qiuqian was flying in the center of a group in a mecha, with an expressionless face.
She naturally knew what her subordinates were worried about.
There seemed to be a special attraction about her to the Starry Sky Devouring Beast. When she first joined the army to fight against the Starry Sky Devouring Beast, the Starry Sky Devouring Beast rioted.
Those sky-devouring beasts were originally fighting on their own, but when she appeared, they all gave up the prey in front of them and ran towards where she was.
But she didn't realize at that time that it was her fault.
Later, as her military merits increased and her status rose, she slowly realized her attraction to the Star Devouring Beast. She also cooperated with the doctors in experiments, but still could not find out the reason.
Because every time she appeared, the Star Devouring Beasts would riot, so she could only sit in the back and give orders from afar.
But this time she knew that she could no longer stay at the rear.
Without anyone for her to command in the front, who could she command in the rear?
Dense swarms of Star Devouring Beasts kept swarming towards her, and the subordinates protecting her in front fell one by one. Finally, even Yasheng fell down, and the energy of her mecha was gradually exhausted.
At this moment, Xu Qiuqian felt more tired than ever before.
A voice in her heart was asking her: Do you regret it? What do you regret? Do you regret joining the army and now you are going to die here? If you hadn't joined the army, you wouldn't have lived such a hard life. With your ability, you could still hide in the rear and have countless wealth and enjoy a comfortable life.
If you hadn't joined the army, you wouldn't have met Yasheng and the others, and they wouldn't have died protecting you. It was because of you that they died...
That voice kept speaking in her heart, cutting into her heart inch by inch, uncovering her deepest cowardice and hesitation, speaking out every word, cutting into her tired flesh and blood piece by piece.
"No... No... It's not like that..."
Xu Qiuqian shook her head, trying to shake off the voice, but the voice was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, which she could not shake off or escape, and seeped into every inch of her bones and blood.
The faces of those who had died kept flashing through her mind.
Countless faces showed expressions of sorrow, fear or resentment, and they were all saying the same thing: "It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, how could we have died? It's all your fault! Why don't you just die!"
"No, that's not it!"
Xu Qiuqian suddenly came back to his senses.
The mecha's energy has been exhausted, and the bloody mouth of the Star Devouring Beast is just around the corner.
At the last moment, her eyes were determined, and she died together with the Star Devouring Beast.
The explosion unfolded in the starry sky, and the brilliant and grand sparks blew away all the star-devouring beasts around.
Time stops, stretching and stretching again and again.
The teacher's voice rang in her mind.
"Qiu Qian, I never understood what you wanted."
Then the hoarse voice of a young boy with a voice changer sounded. It was her as a teenager: "I want money, lots and lots of money."
So much that she would never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of her life, and would not have to endure hunger or hardship wherever she went.
"But you've already done it, haven't you? You've already done it, so why are you still standing here? Has what you want changed?" The teacher's voice became old.
That was the last time she met her teacher after she became a marshal.
The only person who took care of her during her school days.
Xu Qiuqian was stunned, his eyes blank.
Yes, she had already done it. She already possessed countless wealth and she didn't need to fight the Star Devouring Beast anymore.
Then why is she still here?
Because, what she wanted had become——
"Sister Qiu Qian, wake up!"
A familiar voice sounded in her ears. Xu Qiuqian opened her eyes with difficulty and saw Gu Jiao's face.
"Jiaojiao..."
Gu Jiao breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly, "Don't worry, Sister Qiu Qian. We have already come to Xiandu, and those people in Xiandu have all fainted."
"coma?"
"Yes, it was you, Sister Qiu Qian, who helped Yuanshan save those nine-tailed foxes."
Hearing this, Xu Qiuqian felt relieved and saw that there were indeed many people surrounding her, protecting her, and many people looked up at the sky in the void with concern.
She looked up and saw that the other four people in the sky also had their eyes closed and seemed to be experiencing something.
"They are the same as you, Sister Qiu Qian."
Xu Qiuqian thought about what had just happened.
She experienced her final death again in the interstellar space. It was so real, and there was also the voice in her heart tempting her to fall. If she had not woken up at the last moment, she would have chosen to die together with the Star Devouring Beast as in her previous life.
It is hard to say what the outcome will be.
So the four of them are going through the same thing?
At this moment, she discovered that the place that belonged to her was emitting a white light, and she couldn't help but open her eyes wide.
This is——(End of this chapter)
