Chapter 211: Continuing the reunion, like a beast in extreme pain, trekking thousands of miles,...
Chao Zhao has changed a lot.
A silver mask covered the left half of Chao Zhao's face.
On the exposed right half of his face, his eye sockets were more sunken than before, his brow bones were deep, shadows covered his golden eyes, and the dark complexion under his eyes was obviously haggard, making him look even more gloomy.
Burn-like marks can be seen on the neck between the mask and the collar.
He looked at Yun Fuyu in a trance, tears almost falling directly from his red eyes to the ground, stirring up ripples faster than the drizzle and mixing with the puddles on the ground.
Yun Fuyu walked forward, took off his hood with his left hand, and patted Chao Zhao's shoulder with his right hand.
"Chao Zhao."
After a moment of stiffness, Chao Zhao grabbed Yun Fuyu's wrist as if he was grabbing a life-saving straw, and pressed Yun Fuyu tightly in his arms, using his arms extremely hard, as if he wanted to melt him into his bones and blood.
Chao Zhao's shoulders trembled, and he seemed to want to say something in his throat, but in the end, the words did not come out and he could only roar and sob.
Like a wild beast in extreme pain, it traveled thousands of miles and finally found a home where it could sleep peacefully.
Chao Zhao hugged Yun Fuyu tightly, crying and trying to speak.
"...Where have you been? I've been looking for you for so long... They all said you were gone, but I didn't believe them. I've been looking for you for so long, and I've been listening to you... I miss you so much... I was afraid you'd turn into a child again, so I built so many schools... You're finally back... I miss you so much..."
Is it because he listened to Yun Fuyu carefully that Yun Fuyu came to see him?
Chao Zhao was incoherent, trying to find an outlet for all the pain and confusion he had felt over the past seven years. Human words were unable to express it, so he could only let it out through tears.
The pain that had solidified into substance was like a huge body of water blocked by a dam, but he only had a pair of eyes and a mouth, and the outlets for him to express himself were too slow and too few.
The pain crushed my heart, but the moment I hugged Yun Fu Yu tightly, all the shaky pain and spirit came to reality and had a place to go.
Yun Fuyu had to tilt her head back, with her chin stuck in Chao Zhao's shoulder socket and her wrist still being pulled by Chao Zhao.
After a while, he raised his hand and patted Chao Zhao on the back.
...How did it become like this?
Yun Fuyu's memories are somewhat unrealistic.
In the distant memory that is covered by a filter, he is still a big bird who takes good care of his feathers. No one except Xiaoyun can touch his golden tail feathers.
But now Chao Zhao has scars all over half of his body, extending all the way to the back of his left hand.
When he held Yun Fuyu's wrist, Yun Fuyu could feel the rough touch.
Many of Chao Zhao's obsessions in this life are because he once witnessed Xiao Yun's departure with his own eyes, and extreme resentment and pain remain in his soul.
In the past, it was the World Tree Xiaoyun who was reluctant to part with the Golden Crow.
Speaking of the present, Chao Zhao owes Yun Fu Yu.
Hate and love are intertwined and mixed into something that is not clear enough.
So now, is he Yun Fu Yu or the Son of God?
Just now I could still choose the answer, but now it has become unclear.
......Xiaoyun doesn’t know either.
Chao Zhao's tears soaked the clothes on Yun Fuyu's shoulders.
After so many years, the old friend has created a huge mess. It is impossible to sort out who owes whom, and the grudges are endless. In the end, it can only be vague and put aside for the time being.
Only after putting it aside could I raise my hand and pat him on the back.
Yun Fuyu said softly, "I'm back."
————
Four hours after the pollution outbreak in City S.
This pollution is level five, and the situation outside the contaminated area has been brought under control.
Many media reporters rushed to the outskirts of S City and broadcast the situation in real time from the top of high-rise buildings and on aircraft.
In the camera, the black fog above the distant city is like an ominous cancer, clinging tightly to the earth.
"As you can see, the terrorist attack took place two days ago right in the city center, which is also the most polluted area right now..."
"Dozens of government workers were killed in the terrorist attack, and all citizens are expecting the authorities to deal with the situation appropriately."
Unknown to the reporter, after purifying the pollution outside the city, the pastors wanted to go deeper into the city, but were stopped outside the blocked blocks.
They were extremely anxious and solemnly stated the seriousness of the matter.
"The Holy See doesn't care about the conflict between you and the rebels. As long as S City belongs to the Seven Towers Alliance, we will enter!"
"If something happens to the residents, can you bear the responsibility?"
No matter what they said, the Eternal Gold Tower remained indifferent.
The Tower of Eternal Gold has a way to avoid conflict with the Holy See.
Anyway, the priest cannot enter the contaminated area alone, so as long as he stops the accompanying offensive psychic, wouldn’t that be a disguised way of stopping the priest?
However, when the photographer pointed his camera at the block where the government building was located, he suddenly discovered that the black fog there... seemed to have spread out a corner?
Photographer: “…Hmm?”
Subsequently, more and more live broadcast media noticed this incident, and the cameras zoomed in to focus on the missing corner where the black fog had dissipated.
What is that?
[The pollution is disappearing? Didn't they say no priests went in there?]
At this moment, a live broadcast appeared on the homepages of various Star Network websites.
The title is "Live broadcast of terrorist attack! Polluted S City Government Building [Live Broadcast]".
Countless people were attracted by this title and clicked into the live broadcast room, only to find that the content inside was not a live broadcast, but a recording.
【What the hell, isn't this a lie? 】
[New viewers please don't report this, this is true, please continue watching.]
In the picture, the drone is flying low in the black fog, the view is pitch black and nothing can be seen.
After flying for ten minutes, the gloomy darkness became lighter and lighter, and there seemed to be some light ahead.
No matter how strong the wind is, it cannot blow away the pollution.
This shows that the pollution in the contaminated area has begun to be purified.
[Did a pastor really go in?]
The footage was stable, and the drone successfully flew to the government building.
The entrance of the government building was filled with messy tables, chairs and benches, and the exterior walls were covered with spray-painted graffiti, creating a chaotic scene.
[Damn, look at the distance!]
A huge black shadow flashed by, twisting its ferocious tentacles and stabbing wildly, about to hit the aircraft!
Run!
[This is a drone video, not a live broadcast, so no need to run]
But at this moment, the tentacles suddenly seemed to be nailed to the spot by something!
Every inch of the mutant's tentacles was trembling violently, and its sharp teeth were erected densely, trying to break free from control.
The next moment, it shrank without warning and turned into a wisp of ash and disappeared into the air.
What followed was a sudden dizzying scene, with all the scenery flashing by rapidly.
When the vision finally stabilized, a white and slender hand appeared in the picture.
The man turned the aircraft upside down to ensure that the picture could capture his upper body.
This is a man wearing a black cloak.
The wide hood covered his face, leaving only his pointed chin exposed.
He stood on the roof of the government building, with one person standing on each side behind him. They were dressed differently, but both had their faces covered.
Due to equipment limitations, the voice of the man in black was slightly distorted, but it was clear that it was a young voice.
Clear and steady, like a refreshing breeze.
"We are the resistance."
[Rebel video? How did this get uploaded successfully? ?]
[Watch and cherish it, it has been taken off the shelves several times]
Countless people saved the video and forwarded it to more places.
By the time the Hengjin Tower officials noticed it, it was too late to completely delete it.
In the video, the man in black continued to speak.
"Two days ago, citizens of S City on the Ethel planet, under the jurisdiction of the Eternal Tower, held a parade.
That evening a video appeared on Starnet claiming that the rebels were responsible for the incident.
Here, on behalf of the resistance, I solemnly declare that the S City incident was not organized by the resistance and has nothing to do with the resistance.
The resistance will not accept baseless slander."
[Is this true? You say it has nothing to do with it?]
[Perhaps because he realized that the situation was out of control, he wanted to cut ties with her.]
[Isn't the leader of the resistance army LCS? Why is he masked?]
The man in black continued:
"Four hours ago, a Level 5 pollution outbreak occurred in S City. The Hengjin Tower Central Headquarters chose to block off the block where the municipal building is located, allowing the pollution to spread and abandoning all civilians within the block."
"I'm very disappointed about this."
[Why does it sound weird?]
What do you mean by "he's disappointed"? He's talking like he's the leader of the Eternal Tower army.
"Since Hengjin Tower has abandoned City S, then on behalf of the resistance army, I declare that from today on, City S will be officially taken over by the resistance army."
As the words fell, the pollution in the sky was visibly purified rapidly.
A long wind arose from nowhere, sweeping across the center of the city, blowing away the black pollution clouds and fog, and dispersing them lightly in the air.
The young man who claimed to be the leader of the resistance army pointed his camera at the sky.
The pollution vanished, and the cool starry sky reappeared overhead.
In this starry sky, a clear voice tells the story.
"The goal of the resistance is to overthrow aristocratic privilege and establish a federation of equals. We welcome all compatriots who yearn for justice and change to join us and create a new future together."
*
[Poll: Is the Man in Black the true leader of the resistance?]
[Current vote count: 217,584 real votes vs 352,126 fake votes]
Some people have speculated before that the real leader of the rebels might be hiding behind the scenes, and Lin Chaosheng is just a representative pushed to the front.
The reason is simple.
......After all, when the resistance army was established, Lin Chaosheng was still studying in the military academy.
Therefore, there is endless debate on Starnet about the identity of the man in black.
The most crucial point of contention is the purification ability displayed by the man in black in front of the camera.
It is well known that only priests of the Holy See can purify the pollution.
Obviously, no priest can join the resistance - so who is the man in black and why can he purify the pollution?
...Could it be that the resistance has discovered the secret to purifying pollution?
If this is true, then the Seven Towers will be in turmoil.

After finishing recording the short video, Yun Fuyu sent the drone back to the area with signal.
Yun Fuyu did not pull down his hood, but just looked at the city which had returned to peace.
Zhou Huai was both happy and worried: "Are we just leaving like this? What if Hengjin Tower arrests someone in S City again?"
Yun Fuyu looked at Chao Zhao.
Before he could speak, Chao Zhao quickly agreed, "The people from the Sun Chaser Tower will protect the residents here."
Chao Zhao followed Yun Fuyu with his eyes motionlessly, afraid that he would disappear in the blink of an eye.
"I'll go with you."
Yun Fuyu pursed her lips and said, "I'm going to find the resistance."
Zhou Huai interrupted: "It's not appropriate for you to follow."
Chao Zhao looked helpless, afraid that Yun Fuyu would abandon him.
"But I..."
He spoke incoherently and forgot to explain for a moment. He pulled Yun Fuyu's hand and placed it on the back of his neck, then pulled his collar.
There, there is a sinner's mark that symbolizes belonging to Yun Fu Yu.
Zhou Huai exploded: "Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing!"
Yun Fuyu put his hand on Chao Zhao's body and felt the large, uneven scars on it. He was silent for a moment.
Chao Zhao was about to cry again, and held Yun Fuyu's hand pleadingly.
"I'm not from the Sun Chaser Tower. I'm your...subordinate. I'll go with you."
Yun Fuyu hesitated for a moment.
"Then you must cover your face and cut off communication with the Sun Chaser Tower."
Chao Zhao nodded immediately, took off his equipment as quickly as possible, and stuffed them all into Yun Fuyu's hands.
Zhou Huai: "But——"
Yun Fuyu patted Zhou Huai. "Don't worry, I can control it."
From the beginning, Chao Zhao's communicator has been beeping like crazy, with communication requests coming one after another.
"Communication application from Zhaohui"
"From the Sun Chaser Tower Command Center..."
Yun Fuyu connected the call.
Zhaohui's projection instantly appeared in the air.
He frowned, his expression filled with anxiety that was beyond words. He rested his hands on the table, as if he was about to rush into the other side of the projection, grab Chao Zhao by the collar, and ask him to explain what was going on.
The guy in the video just now, did he make a mistake, or...
Chaohui called countless times, but Chaozhao never answered.
Just when I was getting anxious and angry, the communication was suddenly connected without any warning.
So Chaohui slammed the table and stood up. Just as he was about to speak, anxiety and anger suddenly froze on his face in a funny way.
The morning light darted straight into those black eyes.
Shock and confusion were like a tide, instantly drowning Zhaohui.
The projection was too close, Yun Fuyu leaned back slightly and pursed her lips.
Without any warning, Zhaohui's eyes suddenly turned red, but his eyes were fixed on Yun Fuyu.
The bitterness and pain spread from the heart to the eyes, and the tears condensed into substance and slid down from the eyes in an instant.
His lips trembled, and in just a few seconds, his throat was choked with sobs that he couldn't speak.
Everything in the past is still vivid in my mind.
Zhaohui has aged seven years, but the delicate eyebrows and eyes of the person in front of him have not changed at all, and her pupils are curved like a pool of water.
Young, lively, fresh and healthy.
God stole him away for seven years and then returned him.
Zhaohui raised his hand, his fingers trembling, and wanted to touch Yun Fuyu's face through the illusory projection.
Even if she couldn't meet him, just knowing that he existed somewhere in the world made Zhaohui burst into tears.
"...Xiaoyun..."
For the first time in her life, Yun Fuyu experienced the feeling of coaxing Zhaohui.
The golden bird huddled beside the camera, tears falling from its golden eyes like broken strings. It cried and screamed at the same time, and the bird was crying so hard that it couldn't even lift its head.
Yun Fuyu rubbed the bird's head from a distance, coaxing Jinwu in a gentle tone.
"It's okay, I'm back now, right? Be good, I'm going to go to the rebels' territory first, we'll see each other soon...Okay, okay, I'll see you when you come over, don't worry."
While he was coaxing Zhao Hui's Golden Crow, he suddenly remembered Zhao Zhao's spirit body.
Chao Zhao's Golden Crow has always loved to compete for favor, but for some reason, it never came out today.
But there were too many things to do at the moment, and Yun Fuyu didn't have time to ask.
Finally, Chaohui said that he was already on his way to the planet Aesera and would arrive soon. He repeatedly reminded Yun Fuyu to be careful.
*
Adrian sat in the starship, his eyes revealing anxiety, and his fingers tapping on the table.
The communication in front is continuously calling the Sun Tower Command Center, but has not received any response yet.
This further confirmed Adrian's guess.
He was in a meeting just now when Cui Jue rushed into the meeting room holding a live broadcast projector, his face filled with anxiety, ecstasy, and great disbelief.
Before Adrian could frown, his sight suddenly caught the man in black on the projection.
Adrian stood up quickly, flipped over the table, rushed to Cui Jue in two or three steps, snatched the communicator, and held it tightly in his hand.
Then he stood still as if possessed, staring at the live broadcast screen without blinking.
There was an eerie silence in the conference room for a few seconds.
Three or four seconds later, Adrian woke up suddenly like a puppet whose soul suddenly returned to its place, and suddenly ran out of the meeting room.
Judging from the sound of his footsteps, he was running wildly, and the footsteps disappeared in a few seconds.
The others didn't know what was going on and looked at each other.
