Chapter 212 Mourning and inheritance



In the ZB County military base, a survivor of the PL County incident quietly disappeared in the room.

Although the military made some simple identity records when taking in these survivors.

However, in such a major sudden incident, it is difficult for the military to be perfect in every detail.

Yong Zhou easily changed some information.

In the list that recorded Ai Xin's survival, Ai Xin's name was included among the victims.

In addition, no one paid attention to her in such an emergency situation, and the bodies in PL County could not be recovered completely due to the successive battles.

From then on, the girl was considered dead in the eyes of the authorities.

Of course, she is not dead.

Instead, he chose to leave with the loli who called herself Gosla.

I have lost my love forever, and everything I see is in ruins.

Ai Xin felt like she had lost everything and could no longer find the meaning of survival.

As if possessed by some mysterious force, he agreed to follow Gosila and leave the ZB County military base.

She was confused and didn't know where to go.

Joining the Eternal Day where Uncle Marlo and his father once stayed might be a good choice.

After some conversations between her and Sister Gosla, she learned a lot.

Finally decided to join Everday.

Among them, there is a subconscious desire to continue the ideals of my father and uncle.

Among them, there is also endless rage towards the abyss to avenge the sacrifices of his father, mother, and uncle.

Join Everday and avenge the Abyss! This was a goal she found in the midst of confusion.

But before that.

After obtaining Gosla's consent, she returned to PL County under the cover of Gosla's method of reducing her presence.

Through Yong Zhou's connections, she was able to successfully view the body count of the victims.

The mother's body is not on the list of bodies found in the past half day.

Later, she went back to the place where her mother fell in front of her based on her memory.

However, there was only flat ground left there, which formed a sharp contrast with the pile of rubble and ruins around it.

Obviously, the aftermath of the previous battle caused a large area of ​​material nearby to be reduced to ashes.

Ai Xin had actually anticipated this.

The mother's body was not too far from where the sand wolves merged.

And after those sand wolves merged into a larger body, the battles they had with the members of Eternal Day were extremely noisy.

The members of Eternal Day have actually done their best by expanding the battlefield to a larger distance so that the survivors will not be affected.

It would be really difficult to avoid affecting the corpses all over the ground.

She doesn't blame others.

Actually in a sense.

It might not be a bad thing that my mother's body was reduced to ashes in the aftermath of the battle.

After all, the relatively complete and not-so-complete corpses collected did not look very good.

The smashing of various ruins and rocks, the attacks of the sand wolves cutting throats and disemboweling...

This means that even if the corpse has been decorated, it is bound to remain bloody and mangled.

But even though I thought so in my heart.

But she still couldn't help feeling waves of sadness lingering in her heart.

So, when she went to the ruins of Hanhaiyuan where her family once lived, she found her mother's most beloved bracelet.

I resolutely left this sad place.

She didn't want to take other memories with her, for she was afraid that what she might take with her might be sadness.

Next, it’s time for a new beginning.

Next, get rid of confusion!

Life is always like this, spending a lot of time in confusion and growing in a short moment.

Ai Xin was immersed in increasingly determined planning for her next life goals.

But...she had one last request.

"I want to take the bracelet and the doll to my father's cenotaph."

Ai Xin looked at Gosla with a determined gaze.

She wanted her mother's bracelet to stay with her father.

She wanted to put the doll there, too, to tell Uncle Marlowe that he had done enough.

…………

ls city.

ls City, also known as Sunlight City, is a prefecture-level city and provincial capital under the jurisdiction of the xz Autonomous Region.

It is an international tourist city approved by the national top authorities, with its snowy plateau and ethnic characteristics.

Ai Xin comes here often.

It’s not because there is the Potala Palace here.

But it was because her Uncle Marlo said he worked here.

At the same time, in a cemetery here is the cenotaph of my father.

Ai Xin's father was a sailor, at least that's what Ai Xin always thought.

Knowing that her father's greatest wish was to see the sea, Ai Xin was not surprised by her father's sudden decision to go far away and become a sailor when he was almost forty years old.

When she was almost forty years old, her father left them as a seaman and lived a life where he would not come back for half a year or so.

In this life of just one person with her mother, she did not blame her father.

In her eyes, her father has always been a great hero.

But until one day, the news of his father's death suddenly came.

It is said that he lost his footing in the sea and could not be found.

So in the end all that could be left was a cenotaph.

But now she knew that her father was really a great hero. He actually died in a mission to protect the people, and even his body was not preserved.

It was only to maintain confidentiality that we told them they died from work-related injuries such as falling into the sea.

And today, Ai Xin once again came to the gate of the cemetery in LS City.

With a heavy task.

Looking at the doll and bracelet in my hand.

She took a deep breath and walked in slowly.

Along the way, in addition to the continuous green pines and cypresses, what comes into view are large areas of neatly arranged white tombstones.

A clear artificial river surrounds the cemetery.

Like a jade belt around the waist.

The entire cemetery was filled with a faint smell of burning paper, but it was more than just paper.

There is also a smell similar to the burning incense and candles in the temple.

Let her feel a little more at ease.

Ai Xin walked along the familiar road and passed through the cemetery road plan that had not changed in half a year.

Soon, my father's cenotaph appeared before my eyes.

But Ai Xin couldn't help but be stunned.

I saw a lot of people standing not far from my father’s grave with serious expressions.

Most of them were dressed in black formal suits.

This scared Ai Xin a little, and she subconsciously took two steps back.

She suspected that she had found the wrong grave.

But after looking around to confirm, he found that he was not wrong.

Thinking that Gosila was behind her, Ai Xin's somewhat flustered mood calmed down.

She retreated behind Gosla calmly and gained some confidence.

Then he cast a observing look towards the group of people.

There were more than a dozen people next to my father's cenotaph.

There were men and women, young people and children.

I can't tell where it came from.

But without exception, everyone has a raven on their shoulder.

The leader was a woman who looked to be almost thirty years old.

She has a raven on each shoulder.

As for her hand, there was a radio that was making some sound.

[According to official Nepali reports, a portion of the Kangchenjunga peak in the middle of the Himalayas on its northern border collapsed.]

[Kangchenjunga collapsed inexplicably, will its status as the world's third highest peak be lost? ]

[The huge snow wall that should have stretched across the sky collapsed. In that place where there are more gods than people and more temples than houses, what changes will happen to the economy and culture? 】

The news broadcast on the radio slowly started.

However, when the woman noticed Ai Xin and Gosila approaching, she immediately turned off the radio's low volume.

More than a dozen people looked over.

"Martha Branch Director."

Gosla walked forward and greeted the woman in front of her.

Although she has been breaking through on the Fuso tree for more than half a year, she has not communicated with the members of Yongri.

But when the leader reshaped her, he had already instilled in her some basic knowledge about Eternal Day.

“You collapsed part of Kanchenjunga?”

"This is quite a commotion."

"The series of events that follow will give John, the South Asia director, a headache."

Martha shook her head helplessly.

Dealing with public opinion is not a big problem.

But it is the third highest peak in the world.

How could this planetary consciousness care less about this planet than they do? But if you think about it carefully...

Even if Mount Kangchenjunga was completely destroyed, it doesn't seem to be considered a broken skin for the planet, not to mention that only a little more than a quarter of the top has collapsed.

"It's okay. When the leader comes back, he will assign me a position. I will be the higher-ranking official and I will crush him by then."

The main point is that although I am wrong, I am a high-ranking official and you can't be mean to me.

After all, she was just venting her anger and seeking revenge for the members of Everday and humans.

She thought it made sense.

That Natian deserved to be hit by a few of her magnetic field breaths and then beaten to pieces countless times by her random punches.

And in fact, under her intentional control, no one was hurt, and the collapse of half a mountain had little impact on the entire planet.

Then, she looked at Ai Xin who was standing quietly behind her, pushed her back, brought her to stand beside her and said:

"Ai Xin, this is the director of the Southeast Asia branch."

"He was also your uncle Marlowe's former boss."

"She brought some colleagues who are on good terms with Marlowe with her today, so they can be seen off together."

Gosila pointed at the dozen or so people around her and introduced them to the timid Ai Xin.

It’s not wrong to say it was a farewell.

After all, none of them saw Marlowe for the last time.

And after Malo turned into a soul as bright as the stars, the secret method of burning will was pushed to the extreme until everything he had was burned.

No one got the chance to see him again.

As long as the spirituality of demigods is still there, there is a possibility of resurrection due to the immortality they have initially realized.

As long as those who are not at the demigod level still have their spirituality, they can be sent to the starry sky and eternal daylight in the headquarters cave.

But at this moment, even Marlowe's spiritual essence had been burned thoroughly, and he couldn't even let his spirit rise to the starry sky of the headquarters cave while waiting for the next memorial and commendation meeting of Yongri.

This is something you will never see again.

Even looking at the starry sky of the headquarters cave to keep a memory is not allowed.

And now, they just want to see Marlowe's cenotaph to say farewell.

Listening to Gosla's introduction.

Ai Xin looked carefully at the people in front of him who were said to be Uncle Malo's colleagues.

Raven 114514 is Uncle Marlowe’s companion and partner in life and death.

Gourme, although just a child, is a member of the second batch of students at the Eternal Daylight Academy and a close friend of Uncle Malo.

Lucas and Nora are the second batch of students at the Everday Dawn Academy, and they were also the ones whose lives were saved by Uncle Marlo from the giant beast.

Yin Jing, Zhou Chongxian, Jiang Xihua, and Yin Shangwen are the second batch of students at Eternal Daylight Academy. Uncle Malo is the person who personally guides them into Eternal Daylight Academy.

Martha, the branch manager of Everday's Southeast Asia branch, was once Uncle Marlo's direct superior.

The rest were colleagues nearby whom Uncle Malo had met and befriended during the six months since he came to work at the LS City base.

Looking at the sad eyes of these people.

Ai Xin's eyes couldn't help but look a little sad.

According to Sister Gosila, Uncle Malo has completely disappeared.

For a moment, she couldn't help but wonder if she was unlucky with her relatives.

My father was devoured by some so-called flesh and blood monster, and no trace of his body was left.

The mother's body was affected by the aftermath of the battle and no trace was left.

Uncle Marlowe burned all his explosive power, but in the end, no trace of him was left.

In the end, all of the people who were most important to her ended up with no trace left, and they couldn't even have a real tomb.

So she could only carry her mother's bracelet and the doll given by Uncle Marlowe, and build a cenotaph for her two relatives just like the one for her father.

"I only have a doll that Uncle Marlowe gave me before he left. This time I want to put it together with my father's cenotaph."

Ai Xin looked at the doll in her hand.

He spoke somewhat timidly.

She was afraid that these friends of Uncle Marlowe would be disappointed.

"After the incident on Mui Ne Island, Senior Marlowe has always been brooding over your father's sacrifice."

"Now that he can stay next to your father's cenotaph in the form of a cenotaph, he probably won't object."

Nora explained standing aside.

She didn't expect that after their separation on Minai Island, apart from a few studies and missions, the next time she saw Senior Marlowe it would be in this format.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at the shoulders of Gourme and Martha, the branch heads.

If we were to say who is the saddest among them, it would probably be Raven 114514 on the shoulders of Branch Directors Gourme and Martha.

"This... bastard! He really made a fool of me this time."

Gurme looked at the doll in Aixin's arms.

There was even a hint of tears in this sentence.

He and Marlowe first met in Yue.

After being adopted by Godmother Martha, she was busy with the construction of the Everday branch and didn't have much time to take care of him. Although he had let it go, he would still be immersed in the pain of his relatives being hollowed out by those criminals in Europe from time to time.

Until Marlowe, who was assigned to intern near the Southeast Asia branch because of his Chinese-Vietnamese mixed race, appeared.

He was idle all day at the Southeast Asia branch base, and now he had a playmate who would often come to enlighten him.

Their relationship became better and better.

Later, he successfully let go of everything and joined the volunteer organization that Nora, Lucas and others were in, training himself so that he could officially join Everday in the future.

And now, he has finally officially joined Eternal Day.

But Marlowe has already...

After pondering for a while, Gourme wanted to cry out loud.

But he endured it.

"It would be nice to use something commemorative as a cenotaph."

"And this doll once carried Marlowe's amazing will."

Gulmei looked at Ai Xin and said this seriously.

In a trance, he seemed to be able to vaguely see the remnants of the spirit that had once been gloriously displayed.

That is the will passed down by the members of Eternal Day from generation to generation.

The abyss cannot corrode it, and nothingness cannot erase it.

He understood that Marlowe died heroically for his ideals.

He should be happy for him.

Thinking of this, he slowly made way for Ai Xin.

The people around also made way for Ai Xin.

Seeing this, Ai Xin nodded slowly.

She held the bracelet and the doll and slowly came to her father's cenotaph.

Here, there are already two prepared positions.

Ai Xin knelt down slowly.

"Mother, I will live a good life and make sure those monsters don't live a good life."

Ai Xin's gaze was both gentle and sharp.

The more she thought about how her mother used her body to stop a sand wolf and then fell to the ground to save her, the more she hated the so-called abyss.

After saying that, she placed her mother's bracelet in a prepared position.

Then, she was about to put the doll in another prepared place.

But suddenly I felt a weight on my shoulders.

She turned and looked.

I saw a raven standing on my right shoulder without knowing when.

This was one of the two ravens on the shoulders of Martha, the branch manager.

The number 114514 can be vaguely seen hidden in its feathers.

Ai Xin knew from Gosila's previous introduction that this was Uncle Marlo's companion and partner who had been with him through thick and thin.

Raven is the companion that every Everday member has when they first join Everday.

They are pseudo-undead creatures, purely spiritual beings.

Although its combat effectiveness is not strong, it basically serves as an auxiliary pendant.

But they have a very good immortality.

So after Malo's death, it was reborn in the Everday headquarters.

Ai Xin looked at the raven 114514, wondering what it wanted to do by suddenly appearing on his shoulder.

There was no movement for a long time.

Ai Xin didn't ask any more questions.

Somehow, she could see a sadness on the raven's 114514 bird's face.

Silently, she placed the Godzilla doll in another prepared pit.

"Uncle Marlowe..."

Ai Xin murmured, his eyes firm.

Join Everday! Take revenge on the Abyss! Her thoughts became stronger than ever at this moment.

The next moment, Ai Xin felt the light radiating from the raven 114514 on his shoulder to the ground.

Immediately, the soil in the two pits came together.

The marble lid was closed again by an unknown force.

Everything for Marlowe seemed to end here.

But a new story seems to be about to begin.

This is a mysterious inheritance.

Ai Xin looked at Raven 114514.

I had a feeling it had something to say.

And Raven 114514 also looked at Ai Xin at this moment.

As a collective consciousness, it actually has its own emotions.

It recalls Marlowe setting the flag before the battle.

It recalled the Godzilla doll that Malo insisted on giving to Aixin.

It recalled Marlowe's words full of regret and self-blame before his death: "I only protected it!"

After a long pause, Raven 114514 said, "I am Raven 114514, and from now on I will be your partner."

Marlowe failed to protect it, so let it continue!
