Final Chapter: Guarding the Shore [28] "He said, there once was a savior."



But soon, as if he had thought it through, he smiled a clean, soft, snow-like smile:

"…We seem to come from the same hometown, Su Mingan."

Ying's eyes were shocked.

He suddenly recalled the memory of his first world game... Ran Bo's name was on the list of top players.

And Ijurel said that even if Huibai and others jumped into the Ink Sea and washed away their past memories, there would be a chance to awaken their memories, but only once.

This is Ran Bo's only chance.

When dying.

He remembered who he was.

——They came from the same hometown, but ended up in different hometowns.

For the glorious future of his hometown, he resolutely went into exile in the universe, into a strange world, and his memory was washed away. Before he died, he remembered who he was, and what his relatives, friends, and classmates looked like and what their names were.

...then I remembered my original hometown, which was called "Zhai Xing".

"Alas... If I had known this, I wouldn't have gone with Hui Bai and the others. Su Mingan, you seemed to be... eleventh at that time, right? Now you've become the top player." Ran Bo sighed:

"I seemed to be constantly jumping between seventh and ninth place. If I had chosen to stay, I might have been able to compete with you guys instead of being in such a miserable state now."

"Really... I have come to a new hometown and have forgotten who I am. Now I don't even have time to see my parents. Although I have lived in Luowasha for several lifetimes, you have only been there for less than a year..."

The endless snow looked like surging waves, the fluttering white coat looked like a pure white sail, and the young man was smiling on the hillside.

His short hair fluttered, and the daylight was stretched into a narrow strip, as if it was gradually extending from behind him to the whole world.

His palms, arms, forehead, abdomen... gradually melted as the snow fell, like a snowman about to disappear in the sunshine of a new world.

Ying walked down the hill to avoid the snow and looked up at him.

"Do you regret it?" Ying said, "I regret becoming Zhai Xing's guiding star."

——Aren’t those who were the first to go to Luowasha the navigators and guiding stars in the eyes of other players?

"I regret it a little. Look, I've gotten so far that no one remembers me. If I had stayed with you, I would have been at least a top player on the same level as you, and hundreds of millions of people would have remembered me..." Ran Bo sighed, but waved his hand casually, "It's too late, too late."

"That guy Hui Bai doesn't regret it, so why should I regret it?"

"However, he has not recovered his memory yet, and I don't know if he regrets it. I never thought that he and I were both top players in the past, and we became scientific research partners and created the Rin tribe..."

"It's really fate..."

"But now that we have taken the first step, there is no need to turn back."

"This at least proves that..."

He looked down and suddenly felt relieved.

It was as if the pain that had accumulated, settled, and could not be relieved throughout a lifetime was slowly being released:

"It proves that I am not what Si Que considers to be a necessary sacrifice on the road of scientific research..."

"My life has been valuable since the beginning. I am one of the pioneers of Zhai Xing! I am one of the first guides to the cosmic route. I was once a top player - 'No. 1 Mechanic' Ran Bo! I am not a poor child whose life was rewritten by a magpie, not a victim of insignificant struggles in the face of the Creation Era, not a clown crushed into mud by the feet of geniuses and giants."

"In that case."

He put his right hand to his chest.

His eyes were stained with white snow.

His eyes were dripping with blood.

He sang in the snow.

He smiled in the snow.

"——Isn't this enough for this lifetime?"

If I were a bird,

I should also sing with a hoarse throat:

This land battered by storms,

This river of our grief and indignation is always surging,

This angry wind that blows endlessly,

And the extremely gentle dawn from the forest...

Birds can fly because they cannot survive in the sea.

Fish evolved fins because they could not walk on land.

They live in different environments and thus evolve their own organs and physiological characteristics. Oranges grown in the south of the Huai River are oranges, while oranges grown in the north of the Huai River are trifoliate oranges.

When the ideal of pure scientific research can no longer be satisfied, researchers have evolved to pursue fame, profit, desire, bribery, favors, and exclusive groups in order to survive. The environment cannot allow pure people to survive, so pure people "evolve" to no longer be pure.

Once upon a time, people hoped to be pure people forever, until society and the times crushed everything like the feet of giants, until those who fought for power and profit stepped on their heads to move up.

So, birds grew fins and fish grew wings.

—In Rowsa, this is why kittens are loaded onto seats to make cat-cars, birds grow fins and start collecting salt, and leeks grow sickles from their hands and feet.

But, but.

Some people still remember that in the vast universe, there is a beautiful and tear-jerking blue planet.

There are no birds in human form, nor are there humans in bird form.

The people there are just people, and the birds are just birds. But feathers don’t grow on people’s skin, they grow in their hearts. The sharp tiger claws that can kill people don’t grow on their fingertips, they grow in the keyboards they type. The dragon’s mouth that can easily plunder jewels doesn’t grow on their lips, it grows in the documents they sign.
