Ellan Snow felt very strange at this moment.

That indescribable shudder that comes from the soul.

It seemed that it was not exactly the 'excitement' he understood last time, it was more complicated and he couldn't understand it.

More obvious than the last time we faced each other.

Lan Xia: "Why are you hiding all the time?"

No one could get in on the fight between the S-level evolvers, but there were still people around them who were eyeing them and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to launch a sneak attack.

To the Northwest Star Region, Elansno's head is priceless, but to the soldiers of the Second Legion, Lanxia's head means promotion and merit.

"Hide?" Elansno leaned close to Lan Xia's ear in a somewhat malicious tone and said nonchalantly, "Does it still hurt when I kicked you last time?"

Purple mental power exploded, Lan Xia quickly distanced himself and glanced over coldly. He stared at the pair of eyes that were similar to Arnold's, but he could not find any human warmth in them.

He said softly, "Your eyes are beautiful, but they look bloody and dirty on your face."

"You don't deserve it."

Ellen Snow's eyelashes fluttered.

He curled his fingers in confusion, his eyelashes wet by the mist looked darker. He subconsciously turned his face away and lowered his eyes. The moment he heard Lan Xia say that, he even wanted to find a place to hide.

Like a child who made a mistake and was scolded.

This is actually just a statement that expresses disgust.

He had heard similar, even insulting, words countless times over the years.

After seeing so much, he actually doesn't care, and can even read out the abusive comments on Starnet himself.

But now...

It was just a harmless remark from a stranger.

A stranger.

A suffocating pain that he had never felt before welled up in his heart, and when it subsided a little, it turned into indescribable grievance and anger.

Elan Snow whispered, "Why am I not worthy?"

Countless complicated emotions broke through the gate because of these words. He put the gun back and for the first time in a place other than a battlefield, he drew out the sword of Morro's Triumph, which represented the Supreme Judgment.

Nie Liang, who was blocking the firepower of the northwest star region in the distance, took the time to look over here. His pupils shrank and he felt a little disappointed.

Admiral...why do you look a little out of control?

The sword's tip is so cold and sharp that not a drop of rain can touch it.

Elansno raised his eyes and pointed the tip of his sword at Lan Xia: "Take back what you said."

Lan Xia looked at him calmly.

His brows wrinkled slightly, a hint of barely detectable doubt flashed across his eyes, and then he returned to his gentle and distant look.

"Sword of Moro Triumph," Lan Xia narrowed his eyes, murderous intent in his heart, and the purple mental power around him surged.

He rushed over in the rain, with a similar long sword in his hand, his eyes sharp: "I once swore that I would break it with my own hands!"

"I said—"

Elansno swung his sword fiercely, his voice suddenly rising with anger and coldness: "Take back what you said!"

The golden sword light was extremely sharp, cutting through the heavy raindrops and colliding with Lan Xia's spiritual power! Broken gold and light purple broke through the chaotic sky.

A full-strength attack, evenly matched.

When Lan Xia was trying to gather more strength, she suddenly heard a slight tearing sound coming from the pocket of her windbreaker.

A pitch-black, inconspicuous seed slid silently from inside and fell quickly to the ground.

Lan Xia's pupils dilated, and his mind went blank in an instant after hearing a loud explosion. All his defenses disappeared, and the door was wide open. The blood in his body froze: "Arnold——!"

There was an unprecedented panic on the young man's face. He stretched out his hand and leaned over to grab the seed.

At the same time, the Second Legion members who were watching like wolves and tigers immediately became excited: "That S-rank of Xiguang has gone crazy! What a great opportunity! Attack!"

Countless bullets burst out and rushed towards Lan Xia, as densely packed as an iron net determined to surround and kill its prey.

The young man only had that seed in his eyes, like a meteor that fell into a killing machine without looking back.

Alger was closely watching the entire battlefield. When he was destroying the last warship of the Second Legion, he suddenly saw this scene and cried out in shock: "Teacher!!"

There was a mistake, and Wright found an opportunity, and the aircraft carrier was hit by a bomb.

Alge gritted his teeth and managed to keep calm. His eyes turned fierce and he tasted the blood in his mouth.

A shadow riding on a flying vehicle rushed upwards rapidly, the blue tail flame almost ignited the wet rain curtain, Shoubing's eyes were red, and he fired wildly around.

"teacher!"

"Get out! Get out!"

"Get lost—"

The boy, who always blushed when he spoke, roared wildly in all directions, like a chick trying to scare off a pack of wolves lurking around for the sake of its relatives.

He couldn't lose it again... No one could take the people he cherished so carefully in his heart, his family! Once again! From him!!

The Mirror Breaking Period, which had not been broken for such a long time, was suddenly shattered at this moment. The extremely cold mental power burst out of the body, and the surrounding rain froze in the blink of an eye!

Why did I wake up at this time...

Shoubing hugged his head in pain. The aircraft lost its aim and fell heavily from the sky!

But when he was about to fall into the air, he was caught by a pair of warm and broad palms and quickly landed on the ground. He struggled and raised his head: "Uncle Dog..."

Shoubing grabbed his hand anxiously: "Uncle Quan! Go and save the teacher!"

Uncle Quan looked up into the sky.

The battle was changing rapidly. It was only a few seconds, and since then, Elansno had not moved. He was extremely stiff, as if he could not feel the ammunition and firepower rushing towards him from all around.

Very dangerous.

Uncle Quan lowered his head, shook off the boy's hand, and said, "I'm leaving."

Shou Bing was stunned: "What? Where to?"

He said anxiously: "Uncle Quan! You..."

Uncle Quan: "I have already repaid Xiguang's kindness."

"Here are things I want to say but dare not say," he took off the laptop, put it in Shoubing's palm, and finally said his name.

"My name is Kang Quan, and I am Elansno's adjutant."

Shoubing's palms clenched suddenly.

He watched Uncle Quan riding the flying vehicle and rushing towards the silver-haired admiral in the air.

…

Arnold——

When Elansno heard the call, he felt as if he was hit on the head with a club and began to tremble all over.

It was as if time had stood still.

Countless raindrops floated in the air, like mirrors, through which countless fragments of memories flashed.

The scenes are fleeting and bizarre.

The whole world became strange. He could no longer hear the sharp sound of bullets breaking through the air, nor could he hear all the noise. The only thing he could clearly hear was his own rapid heartbeat.

Everything slowed down before his eyes.

Frame by frame, page by page.

The past that I had endured more than a thousand times of pain but had not been able to grasp, because of this "Arnold", violently shattered all the blockages and obstacles, and came roaring back across nearly fifteen years from the age of fourteen to twenty-eight.

["elder brother."

Before going to bed that night, Lan Nuo interrupted Lan Xia who was telling a story, turned over and asked, "What is Alzheimer's disease?"

They only had a few storybooks, and Lan Xia didn't understand much. He searched for a long time in the dim light, but couldn't find the mark on the book. He guessed, "It should be a disease that ordinary people will get. After getting sick, they gradually lose their memory of the people they know."

Lan Nuo was a little curious: "Eh? Brother, we are ordinary people too. What do you think, when we become grandfathers in the future, will we also get this disease?"

"Even if he gets it, my brother will forget Arnold, but Arnold will never forget my brother." Lan Nuo rubbed his little face, resting his chin on his hand while lying next to Lan Xia, with his head tilted.

Lan Xia closed the book: "Why?"

"Because..." the little boy whispered mysteriously into his brother's ear, "Arnold is so smart, as long as brother calls me, I can remember everything!"

When he finished speaking he let out a howl, his eyes lit up, and stretched out his little paws to scratch the itchy flesh on his brother's body.

Lan Xia laughed until tears came out: "Arnold!"

The little boy was having a good time, and he replied casually, "Yes, yes!"

"Alzheimer's disease can make you get lost!" Lannuo said, "But I'm not worried about that, because my brother can always find me when we play hide-and-seek. It will be the same in the future!"

Lan Xia: “Okay, okay.”

……]

He has a notebook in which he records the bits and pieces of words that come to his mind while searching for his memories. The word most frequently written on it is "can, can..."

It turns out that...

elder brother.

That's my brother.

Elansno's brain was aching with chaos. More and more shattered memories rushed in like a knife handle, stirring in his mind.

He opened his mouth silently, but no sound came out.

Suddenly, he heard a scream: "Teacher——!!"

Elansno's eyes moved, and he saw Shoubing running into the air on a flying vehicle, but then he was suddenly exposed to the chilling mental power, and the wolf fell down.

He remembered the child.

I was rescued by my brother in Silicon Blue City.

So what he shouted was...

Elan Snow looked towards Lan Xia anxiously.

Countless bullets were fired at Lan Xia.

At the same time, he also saw clearly the countless bullets fired at him from a distance, in just a few seconds.

It's like an unanswerable multiple-choice question.

If he opens the mental shield, he won't be able to save his brother. If he chooses to save his brother, he won't be able to open the shield.

There was no need to consider at all, the golden mental power instantly filled the blade of Moro Triumph Sword.

Elansno's purple pupils were dark and terrifying, full of murderous intent and ruthlessness. He grasped the hilt of the sword with his cold, pale fingers and swung it fiercely in the direction of Lan Xia.

"Get lost!"

This consumed nearly 70% of his mental strength. The golden light was like the sun, and the second after Lan Xia grabbed the seed, it instantly knocked him away and his body rushed backwards.

Shoubing used his unfamiliar mental strength to soar into the air and caught Lan Xia, and they both fell to the rocks on the ground.

With the ice pad guarding him, Lan Xia was fine. He held the seeds in his hand and looked up in surprise.

However, Ellan Snow didn't dare to look over here, he even looked away dodgingly.

Most of his strength was drained away, and with a severe pain in his head, he coughed up blood, his body swayed, and he was about to fall from the air.

He could see the traces of the bullets flying past.

Even if it's an S-rank Evolver, it will die if it gets hit.

Ellen Snow closed her eyes.

He hoped that among so many bullets, two would hit his eyes and rot them, so that his brother would not be able to see the blood and filth in his eyes.

"Admiral!!"

Nie Liang rushed over quickly!

He just wasn't paying attention for a moment...

Not even a minute.

When he turned around, he saw the general falling from the sky with his eyes closed.

He smelled death.

The admiral is seeking death.

Nie Liang's eyes instantly became bloodshot, and his gentle face was torn apart madly. His expression was insane and distorted to the point of being almost terrifying.

Who is it, who is it, who is it, who is it, who is it--!! Which dead man who wanted to be skinned alive by him touched the general under his nose!

There was a figure that was faster than him.

…

Ellen Snow felt no pain.

Someone used his broad shoulders to protect him against his chest.

Warm blood splashed onto the mask.

Elansno's eyelashes trembled, he opened his eyes, and saw a strange face and a familiar look.

Serious, rigid, yet tolerant, but a smiling face.

Elan Snow: "... Kang Dog?"

Kang Dog blocked the attack, his body covered in blood. He supported Elansno and brought him to the ground safely, then fell down in front of Elansno.

He seemed to be in extreme pain, curled up on the ground with his back hunched, and the blood in his mouth could not be stopped, which splashed onto Elansno's military boots.

Ellen Snow bowed her head.

The adjutant who had taken care of him for six years stretched out his trembling mechanical hand and wiped the blood off his military boots in the rain, just as he had done countless times before, very naturally.

"Traitor." Elan Snow looked at him.

Kang Quan's eyes were irritated by the rain and he couldn't open them. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "You...you recognized me."

When he pointed his gun at the Second Army, he realized that Kang Quan was never loyal to the Federation, but to the general of the First Army.

But he was unworthy of the admiral's trust.

"Admiral... I'm sorry, please... eat well in the future..." he continued unsteadily.

In fact, he couldn't go back to his home in the C9 star zone for a long time, but in the end, he had to find a place to belong.

He had long been accustomed to taking care of the admiral. He didn't know if there was anyone who could take care of the admiral's temper and personality after he was gone. He had been thinking about him all the time during the three years in Xiguang.

It's really worrying...

Nie Liang landed silently behind Elansno, and the chaotic breath gradually calmed down.

Kang Quan's eyes fell on him. He looked at the familiar standard military uniform on Nie Liang, was stunned for a moment, then felt a little relieved, and suddenly he was not so worried anymore.

He took out a candy, raised his hand and handed it to the admiral who was standing silently in the rain and mist. He finally stopped looking stern and said with a smile, "I saved this especially for you... I didn't give it to anyone else..."

He remembered that Ellen Snow didn't like sweets, so he added.

"This candy substitute is not sweet..."

Since Elan Snow didn't take it, he kept holding it up, with the light of vitality in his eyes shining brightly, holding on to the last bit of obsession.

Kang's hand, which was used to holding a gun, was shaking violently due to exhaustion.

Ellan Snow finally bent slightly and took it.

Kang Quan's eyes were like the last leaping sparks, which lit up for a moment and then went out in an instant, and his hand fell heavily into the mud.

He once 'died' of betrayal, but ultimately died of loyalty.

"adjutant."

Ellan Snow said in the most normal tone.

Nie Liang did not respond, he knew that the adjutant was not referring to him.

Three of Alge's flying ships had been destroyed, and the remaining one contained the children, while the other was for protection.

He lured Wright into crashing into the mountain, then opened the hatch and shouted, "Teacher! Retreat!"

"Everyone come up! The reinforcements from the Second Army in the southeast are coming soon!"

If we don't leave now, it will be too late.

The flying ship was lowered, and a strong wind swept up the ground. Now was not the time to explore. Lan Xia suppressed the waves in her eyes, her eyes were gloomy, and she grabbed Shou Bing and said, "Let's go!"

Shou Bing looked at the man who saved Elansno without hesitation, his eyes reddened, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Uncle Quan... bring Uncle Quan back..."

Before he finished speaking, Elansno squatted down, grabbed Kang Quan's collar with one hand, and without even looking up, threw him towards them.

"Take him away. I have no place to bury him here."

The body was still warm. Shoubing caught it and staggered. He looked at Elansno angrily: "You——"

Arge: "Go!"

Lan Xia looked back at Elansno for the last time, then took the remaining survivors and boarded the flying ship.

"Don't let these guys from the Northwest Star Region leave!"

“Catch up!”

"Why doesn't the general take action..."

"Reinforcements are coming soon! If you rush forward, you will be rewarded!"

There were loud and low noises, and many soldiers chased after them directly, and some even set up their cannons, intending to shoot down the flying ship.

Ellen Snow tilted her head.

The next second, teleport to the front.

The golden mental power covered the sky and the earth, forcibly blocking all firepower chasing Xiguang.

The terrifying energy wave knocked Elansno back a hundred meters and crashed him into the mountain. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth expressionlessly and jumped to the ground as if he felt no pain.

The cold light of the Morro Triumph Sword in his hand finally pointed at the Federation for the first time.

Under the soldiers' horrified and disbelieving gazes, he used all his remaining mental strength to strike out -

Amid countless screams that were drowned out by the golden light, the ground rumbled and a deep gully appeared on the ground.

It’s like the discontinuity in my life when I was fourteen.

For the first time, the Federation experienced the destructive power of "living weapons" when they got out of control.

The soldiers were not all dead.

Elansno's body softened and he fell down. Nie Liang supported him and whispered, "Admiral, you take a rest. Leave the rest to me."

Elansno was in a fuzzy state and looked back in the direction where the Dawn Flying Ship left.

It's already very far away.

No one will stand in their way.

…

Ten minutes later.

Nie Liang, smelling of blood, entered a secluded cave and squatted down.

"Admiral, I'm back. The reinforcements from the Second Legion will be here soon. I've already cleared the area outside. They won't find us."

"We will be able to leave once the reinforcements arrive. The First Legion has already been notified."

Elansno was silent for a few seconds before he said in a hoarse voice, "I remember... you had a lot of flying blades and daggers on you."

"Give me one."

Nie Liang took out a flying blade, wiped it clean and passed it over.

Elansno took it without any hesitation and gouged out his eyes.

"Admiral!"

Nie Liang's pupils shrank and he raised his hand suddenly to hit it away.

The flying blades fell with a clang in the distance.

He grabbed Elan Snow's wrist tightly and said, "Admiral, what are you doing?!"

[Your eyes are beautiful, but they look bloody and dirty on your face.]

[You don't deserve it.]

Elansno stared at his hands for a long time, then leaned back and said, "...I remember everything now."

Nie Liang: “…What?”

"My memories before the age of fourteen," Ellen Snow said, "When he called my name, I remembered everything."

"I let him down..."

"I've done so many bad things."

"I just killed a lot of people..."

He became like this, his brother didn't forget him, but he just couldn't recognize him.

Just can't recognize it.

fraud.

Stupid brother.

It's just a game of hide-and-seek that lasts a little longer, and then you won't be able to find him.

The scene was too chaotic, and Nie Liang didn't know what exactly happened to Elan Snow. He cursed Lanzhouhe for being unreliable and for not having any news about the reptile for such a long time, and asked in a low voice: "Who is he? Is he on Xiguang's flying ship?"

Kang Quan? The kid who suddenly burst into spiritual power? Leader Xiguang? Or... Lan Xia?

Lan Xia.

elainsno.

Unable to figure out a clue, Nie Liang frowned, hesitated for a long time, but still did not let go of Ellan Snow's wrist.

He could sense that the admiral's mental state was not stable. He was frightened by the admiral's attempt to dig out his own eyes.

The admiral is an S-level evolver, and it is easy for him to lose control. If he lets go, he is afraid that this man will really dig out his eyes.

Even if his memory was restored, why would anyone dig out his own eyes?

Ellen Snow: "Release."

Nie Liang: "Admiral..."

Ellen Snow looked over.

Everything happened within one day today, and all his reactions were almost numb.

Nie Liang's heart clenched when he was looked at with this look, and then he slowly relaxed.

There was blood on his gloves, which stained Ellansno's pale wrist. He gripped it a little too hard, leaving bloody fingerprints.

Nie Liang stared at him nervously.

Elansno did nothing else but took out the candy that Kang Dog had given him before he died, peeled it open, and put it in his mouth.

After a long while, he said, "You lied to me again, it's sweet..."

Drops of crystal tears fell on the tip of Morek's Sword of Triumph, and a layer of moist mist covered the purple eyes. It was a beautiful color, like a sad dream of a child living in a fairy tale.

It's just like a dream, not a dream.

Blurry, mottled, unreal.

"You all lied to me."
