Cheng Yu snorted coldly, leaped up suddenly, spread his fiery red wings, and like a meteor streaking through the night sky, he easily avoided the first wave of attacks.
The tips of the wings cut through the air and headed straight for their faces. The muzzles of the guns were cut off cleanly, and the broken barrels emitted charred smoke and fell to the ground with a crisp thud.
"Tsk, rubbish."
However, I didn't expect it to be a row of robots, but unfortunately they were a bit weak.
"Ho! Master, Baymax is here to save you!" Baymax carried two pursuit cannons in one hand, with a group of robots following behind him.
Before Cheng Yu could react, Dabai was kicked aside.
Cheng Yu folded his wings and walked forward. Sure enough, just as he thought, he leaned in the familiar arms.
"Are you hurt?" Bai Yan's calm and caring voice made Cheng Yu rub against him comfortably.
Fortunately it wasn't Antonio, otherwise it would have made a gurgling sound.
Bai Yan said nothing more, his eyes fixed on Lessos in the distance.
At this moment, Lessos's face was pale, like a poisonous snake forced into a corner, and his eyes were full of unwilling hatred.
Dabai instigated all the guard robots in the prison to rebel and then found this place based on Bai Yan's location.
He got up from the ground at the right moment, patted his chest, and said with a groan: "Humph, trash! I, Dabai, don't take these broken iron robots seriously!"
He greeted the robot he had instigated, while standing aside, humming a tuneless little tune and skillfully assembling his arms.
Dabai glanced proudly at Cheng Yu and Bai Yan, grinning and saying, "Master, I have made a great contribution this time. Can you reward me with a spraying system?"
It just saw a pink guard robot, which is super pretty, but the green one is also pretty.
Bai Lishu and Opp leaned against the wall. She half-closed her eyes and looked at Dabai, learning her lesson this time.
As soon as Dabai finished speaking, Bai Yan raised his eyes slightly and glanced at him lightly.
Cheng Yu thought about it and nodded. He also wanted to see other colors.
Dabai suddenly looked excited, "Thank you, Master!"
There can be a new color. He wants a colorful white!
Lessos lay on the ground, his eyes dim and powerless. He looked at Bai Yan and Cheng Yu with resentment, muttering to himself: "You...you don't understand at all. It's us who have given this world new rules!"
Without him and them, the military and the top brass would never be willing to give up power and live in harmony.
Lessos's voice gradually became low, filled with despair and anger.
He forced himself to hold on to his weak body, staring at Bai Yan and Cheng Yu, with a glimmer of desperate obsession in his eyes.
"New... rules?" Bai Yan frowned slightly, his eyes calm, as if he didn't care about Lesos's words. "Oh, that's ridiculous. What do you think you control?"
Lessos covered his chest and gasped, "Power... is authority! It is... control! It is..." His voice gradually lowered, and a trace of trance flashed in his eyes.
Bai Yan approached Lessos step by step, his cold eyes seeming to see through everything. "The power you speak of is nothing more than an obsession lost in power. You think control and hegemony are power, but that is nothing more than a path to self-destruction."
When Lessos heard Bai Yan's words, his body trembled and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "No... impossible... I..." He could not refute and could only remain silent, as if he had lost all hope.
Bai Yan lowered his head and looked at him. "Your existence is meaningless, Lesos. Do you still remember what you originally wanted?"
What Lessos said before was not entirely false. If it were entirely false, they would have been able to spot it at a glance.
The mixture of truth and falsehood is the most difficult to detect, especially when it is mixed with true feelings.
It is true that they were sent to the universe to find a new home, it is true that they were tortured for decades, and it is true that they wanted to save mankind, but the only thing is that they went astray.
Lessos raised his head, but the light in his eyes had gone. He gasped and made a weak sound in his throat, but he could not express anything.
Bai Yan's calm eyes pierced deeply into his soul like an invisible sharp blade, making him completely feel his powerlessness and despair.
In a trance, he seemed to see Bai Yan in military uniform again. He was only 16 years old at that time, and General Bai was his idol.
I dream of becoming such a person.
But, what did he do…and when did he start to change?
Maybe it was when he was tortured to the point where he could see syringes even when he closed his eyes, or when he was fighting with the Demand people and all he could see was blood.
Or maybe... it's when they return home after going through so much hardship, only to find that no one cares about their sacrifice.
Lessos's eyes were dim. He raised his hands to cover his eyes, trying to hide the tears in them, but his weak trembling betrayed his struggle.
Like a child who has done something wrong, he murmured in a voice as low as a mosquito's hum, "Have I... have I really gone astray?"
Bai Yan stood before him, his voice icy yet profound, "Everyone has a choice, but not everyone can reach the final destination. The path you're on is just a cycle of self-loss."
"Lost..." Lessos smiled bitterly, his eyes filled with endless pain. "I thought I could save humanity and bring them true freedom and order, but I was wrong. I was completely wrong."
Cheng Yu squatted on the ground and looked at him, confusion flashed in his eyes, and then looked at Bai Yan.
"If you're wrong, correct it." He uttered each word, imitating the way Bai Yan taught Bai Luoqi.
Bai Yan patted his head and continued, "Admitting one's mistakes is the best way to improve. At least, you manage this place well, don't you?"
It’s not that Cheng Yu and Bai Yan are so kind, they are just being realistic. It’s true that Lesos was blinded by desire and wanted to get Cheng Yu’s wings, but other than that, he has never hurt innocent people.
And if it weren't for Lessos's management, this place might have become a mess long ago. If it weren't for Lessos and his people's persistence back then, with the civilization level of the Demand people, they would have known about the existence of Blue Planet at that time. Let alone the interstellar era, Blue Planet might have ceased to exist long ago.
Smoke is produced by fire, and firewood is made of wood. Cause and effect are interconnected, so how can we clearly distinguish right from wrong?
Lessos suddenly showed a tentacle, and Bai Yan raised his hand to protect Cheng Yu.
However, he didn't expect that his right hand was cut off by his own tentacles, blood splattered out, and blood flowed down the broken arm.
"Brother Chengyu, I'm sorry!" There was bitterness and pleading in Lesos' voice.
"Lesos, are you crazy?" Bai Yan looked at him with a frown.
Cheng Yu took a step back the moment before he made a move, "I don't want it."
Who wants his hand? It's weird.
He has his own.
