“Wow——”
A warm breeze blew by.
Su Mingan took a step forward, and his heels hit the ground, making a crisp sound like jade colliding.
At the end of the avenue, where the light converged, was a huge transparent building like a glass column, standing upright in the sky like a tower. A white-haired young man stood quietly in front of the building, with a bright red hose behind him dragging on the ground, firmly connected to the building.
"You're finally here, Lewis." Lin Guang smiled. He was still wearing a Western aristocratic outfit, similar in style to Noel, and even wore an exaggerated rose top hat.
There were many players who had joined the City of Gods camp standing beside him. At this moment, they were standing at the door like a line of hostesses. When they saw Su Mingan, they showed awe, enthusiasm and jealousy in their eyes.
They worked diligently under Lin Guang to earn contribution points for the faction, but Su Mingan came like a guest, and Lin Guang ordered them to greet Su Mingan like a maid. Why is there such a big gap between people?
"Lin Guang, can you take me around the City of God?" Su Ming'an said.
"Of course!" Lin Guang immediately walked down the stairs. With a "click", the hose behind him naturally fell off.
Su Mingan's eyes darted behind Lin Guang. Without these hoses, Lin Guang's combat effectiveness should have declined. But he still didn't make a move. After all, this was the City of Gods.
The City of God is uninhabited, and even the buildings are square and spotless, like clean glass cabinets.
This is a Noah's Ark that gathers the most advanced weapons currently available, and the fire of human civilization is preserved in it.
Lin Guang took him to see the largest garden in the City of God, where flowers of all seasons bloomed, and all the flowers were in their most beautiful blooming state.
"Because I knew you were coming, I let every flower in the garden stay at its most beautiful moment." Lin Guang led him through the garden.
"How did you do it?" Su Mingan asked.
"I don't want to say." Lin Guang said.
Su Mingan could only not ask.
He figured out Lin Guang's way of thinking. If Lin Guang didn't want to say something, he would never say it.
They walked through the gardens and passed the stream and the swimming pool. In a world where fresh water is extremely scarce, such a clear stream is rare.
Walking across the stream and the long bridge, Su Mingan saw an ecological forest. The golden color of the ginkgo leaves flashed by, mixed with the lush green, shining like gold, like a rich dream with distinct contrasting colors.
Is that... Ginkgo leaf?
"Louis, look there." Lin Guang stretched out his hand.
Su Mingan looked in the direction he was looking at—and suddenly saw millions of golden butterflies fluttering in the sky.
This scene looked shocking and beautiful under the bloody sun. Countless butterflies spread their wings, presenting a dazzling and scattered golden color, with polished and reflective edges, like a golden road extending to the sky.
After a moment, Su Ming calmed down.
…No, that’s not a butterfly.
There were thousands of ginkgo leaves flying like butterfly wings. A breeze blew over the branches, as if blowing away all the "butterflies". Countless golden leaves rustled like stars. Due to the change in light, the leaves turned from gold to white, as if they were coated with silver.
The almost endless ginkgo trees suddenly opened up before his eyes. Thousands of flying golden "butterflies" filled the seemingly endless path, like a gorgeous golden dream.
The golden ginkgo leaves were born in autumn, but he saw its beautiful shadow in the cold winter.
For a moment, Su Ming'an forgot that he was in the danger-ridden City of God, and that the person next to him was not a dangerous madman, but a companion who was accompanying him to enjoy the scenery.
Sandstorms, radiation, wasteland, Originium... these crises seemed to have been filtered and distilled and disappeared from his mind, leaving only pure and clean peace. Under the thousands of golden colors, the scenery was as stunning and beautiful as thousands of miles of snow, and he was in it.
"Butterfly..." Su Mingan murmured to himself.
"They are not butterflies, they are ginkgo leaves," said Lin Guang.
Su Mingan was silent for a moment.
"Okay, ginkgo biloba," he said.
Lin Guang glanced at him, with confusion and puzzlement in his light eyes. He didn't understand what Su Mingan regretted. Could it be that ginkgo leaves could not compare to butterflies?
His way of thinking is different from that of ordinary people, and it seems like there is an unbreakable layer of glass between him and human sensibility.
He takes what he likes, and erases what he doesn't like. He gets angry when he is offended. He wants to make friends with people he is close to, and kills people he hates. He is as simple and straightforward as a blank sheet of paper, and his actions are different from those of ordinary people.
No matter what happens, he has a specific way to deal with it, to "activate" it, and to "respond". His judgment method and behavior pattern are corresponding.
Or rather...
He is more like a "program" composed of 0s and 1s, which can only get results according to a rigid and standardized way of thinking.
No one taught him, no one accompanied him, no one told him - what you should do.
He could not find anyone who could talk to him as an equal. His methods became more and more cruel, his temper became more and more violent, and people became more and more afraid of him, forming a vicious cycle.
He longed for a sense of "closeness".
In other words, "familiarity".
——So, the moment he first saw Lewis, he couldn't control his desire for light. This feeling was like a young swallow returning to the nest, like a long-lost child finding his companion.
He tried to put himself in Lewis's shoes and imagine, "If I were Lewis, why would I not like ginkgo leaves?" But he couldn't figure it out, and could only conclude that Lewis probably really liked butterflies more.
