Chapter 716 "Do Electric Sheep Dream of Spring?"



"I am Andvis from the Free Alliance. Long time no see, City Lord, you are still so young." The next middle-aged man bowed and smiled.

"Long time no see, Andrews, welcome." Su Mingan said.

"Your perfect war decision in the year 49 of the Cataclysm astounds me." Andrews said, "Under your leadership, humans will surely be able to drive out the [Tervi]."

"...Yes, humans will win." Su Mingan said.

However, after he faked his death, the voice of the gods no longer rang in his ears. Without the command of the gods, how could he win...

He now has to command millions of troops and bear the fate of hundreds of millions of people...His experience of being omniscient, omnipotent and invincible is obviously just a bubble, but everyone believes in him so much.

Lord after lord swore allegiance to him. The room was filled with the bright light of medals and gold was everywhere.

The meeting ended and Su Mingan turned and walked into the back room.

As soon as he closed the door, he took off his white gloves, threw them into the trash can next to him like throwing away a fly, and put on a new pair of gloves.

Yueyue sat on the sofa, staring at the sand table on the table. Seeing Su Mingan push the door in, she looked up and said, "Take a rest, you don't look well."

"There are many conflicts between the new generals and the city lord's direct line, and they cannot be ignored," said Su Mingan.

Next to him, Lu thought: "Now the instance has entered the final stage. Since ancient times, there is a saying that 'a cup of wine releases military power'. It is normal for the heroes to feel scared. It is indeed not time to rest yet."

"Let him rest. After all, he was just a student before. I feel tired..." said Yamada Machiichi.

"Su Ming'an, he is a student?" Luke said in a serious tone, looking at Su Ming'an: "No, Asa Akto, you are the city lord."

This was the first time Lu addressed him as "you".

"Whether you like it or not, when the copy assigns you such an identity, you can't turn back. I am ten years older than you. If you don't know how, I will teach you how to face these." Lu said.

Su Mingan was silent for a moment: "...Thank you."

"After seeing the sight of the ruined world, I once again believe that we were right to create the Peak Alliance. Heroes will be feared. We need a place after the war, and you have all the qualities to lead mankind out of darkness," Lu said.

"You mean... let me become a post-war dictator?" Su Ming'an said.

"No." Lu looked up:

"Should I say... Guardian."

"You carry the lives of hundreds of millions of people on your shoulders."

【Doomsday City·Outside the City】

"Grandma, when can we go home..." A little girl clutched her clothes.

They were in the ragged refugee group, covered in frostbite and looking pale and emaciated.

They were refugees, and when they heard about the war, they hurried to find a city to hide in. Thousands of these refugees gathered at the city gate.

"Tuantuan, we'll be able to go into the city soon..." her grandmother comforted her.

"Before Mom froze to death, she said that grandma used to say that as long as we see the dawn, we will have spring, but why did spring disappear again..." The little girl said, "Mom also said that when she was a child, she saw crows on the train, but why did the crows disappear too... Grandma, I miss Mom..."

Grandma hugged her thin body tightly and choked up:

"Tuantuan. I miss Nini too..."

From the second year after the disaster to the 72nd year after the disaster is a history of human suffering.

Before the Dawn War began, humans suffered from the rule of gods and cruel executions.

In the early days of the Dawn War, humans suffered from the raging wars and sudden nuclear explosions.

In the late Dawn War, humans suffered from self-conquest and resource shortages.

The true dawn is always in the future that does not intersect with them, as if a sharp blade cuts off the future. All they face is suffering.

"Hey - Doomsday City has reached its limit for refugees. Please move to another place! We won't accept any more!"

Just then, the team at the door stopped and soldiers came running to drive them away.

Grandma’s face turned pale - they had travelled hundreds of kilometres to reach Doomsday City, and now they were being driven away again... They could no longer walk, and the only outcome was to freeze to death on the road.

"——Didn't they say that Doomsday City would take in refugees?"

"——I've never heard of a request for a full quota, so why did they tell us they don't accept us when we got here?"

As the hope of survival faded, people began to yell like crazy, and the colorful strips of cloth were like waving flags.

"A war is about to break out, and the whole city is under martial law. We can't take in too many refugees. There's a new policy from above. It says that only the refugees who need help the most can enter Doomsday City. All right, you guys should quickly move to another place." The soldier explained, and began to drive people away again, like one wave pushing another wave.

"Aren't we the refugees who need help the most? My husband has been frozen to death!" Thousands of refugees came like a vast tide, and all kinds of noisy voices were heard.

"My whole family is dead, and I don't have any warm stones left. If you drive me away, you're forcing me to die!"

"Why are we going to start a war again!? Didn't the Dawn War end? What on earth is that city lord doing?!"

"He died and lived again, lived and died again. Who knows what the hell he is? I saw that devil Lin Guang pushing his corpse before. What bionic body? Isn't this a monster?"

“…”

The grandmother held the little girl tightly in her arms to prevent her from being swept away by the sudden surge of people. People with red faces and ears were like monkeys scratching their heads.

She closed her eyes tightly and warmed the little girl's body. They had been hugging each other to keep warm along the way.

"Don't be afraid, Tuantuan. There is always a place for us to live. This world won't force people to death..." she whispered.
