The third sister in the sideshow
Although Tiexiong had many rebellious thoughts about Wanzanghai, this haggard old man was the leader of human civilization for hundreds of years, and was the "god" that countless people believed in, cursed and had to believe. Tiexiong calmed down and still honestly reported to the old man the riots that had occurred in the fleet in the past few days.
It has now been found that this riot was completely a premeditated action by the Returning faction.
With the destruction of the earth, the new Earth Combined Fleet is getting farther and farther away from its homeland, especially the repeated massacres and purges, and the old order has long disappeared.
The tens of millions of people who survived by chance and the dark and cold universe were separated by a cold iron wall. In such a claustrophobic, high-pressure and desperate environment, it only takes one second for humans to turn into beasts and beasts to turn into demons.
A hundred years of escape, various voices against Wanzanghai have never subsided, and small-scale riots and strikes have occurred from time to time, but these are all scabies and will not have much impact on the mission of the joint fleet - because all the oppositions cannot solve a problem, "If you do not obey Wanzanghai's orders, continue to move forward, and go to the source of the meteorites and the other side of the universe, where should you go?"
If this problem is not solved, the riots will always be just riots. They are just too tired and painful to vent their dissatisfaction and complaints.
However, the "returning faction" is different.
The Return faction is an extremely dangerous trend that has emerged in the joint fleet in recent years. It has just been born and has shown strong deception and destructive power.
Just like the name of this faction, the Returning Sect claimed that after hundreds of years of self-purification and restoration, the Earth had broken free from the devastating solar storm and restored to a certain degree of vitality. At least, compared with restoring the Earth, the hope of finding a new home at the end of the universe is even more slim, so the United Fleet should not continue to move towards the unknown darkness, but should turn the direction and return to the Earth.
"The difficulty of sailing at the Star Sea is far beyond our estimates. It will take at least tens of thousands of years to reach our destination. Neither the food circulation system nor the hibernation system can support such a long journey. We are destined to fail halfway and be destroyed in the most extreme darkness!"
"Let's look back, the sea of suffering is boundless, and turning back is the shore!"
"It is still time to change the course now. We have explored the way home clearly. We will not encounter any difficulties and obstacles again. We will definitely be able to go back."
"Born on Earth, die on Earth!"
"Go back to the earth and rebuild the most beautiful home, vast stars and endless universes, only the earth is our only paradise!"
The Returning Sect secretly spread such remarks, eroding the body of the Earth's Joint Fleet like venom, and slowly eroding people's last trace of trust in Wanzanghai.
Unlike previous complaints, complaints and meaningless venting, the concept of the Return Sect is not only tempting, but also very operational. Especially after experiencing several major setbacks and heavy losses in the fleet, the blue planet in the past has become a paradise that countless people have been dreaming of. The power of the Return Sect is getting stronger day by day. Until now, it can connect dozens of starships and launch a large-scale protest of ten days and half a month, and finally become a major concern of the Joint Fleet.
"My commander!"
Although Wanzanghai is not the nominal commander of the New Earth United Fleet, all the confidants call him this, and Tiexiong is no exception. "The Return Sect has become a big shot. If you retreat and compromise like this, it will only make the fire of destruction burn more and more vigorously. It is time... Let's make a quick decision!
"The road ahead is long, and this marching marche may last for many years. A loose immigrant fleet is destined to be unable to support its destination. Only an iron-blooded strong army that is as strong as steel and prohibited as orders!"
Tiexiong's heart was beating like a drum, and he revealed the complete set of strategies that he had been thinking about for a long time.
No matter how the old man opposite him reacted, it was within his expectations.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the old man was as unresponsive as a rotten wood and did not comment.
Tiexiong bravely approached and heard Wan Zanghai say in a very light voice: "I understand, let's go down."
Tiexiong was slightly stunned, his eyes rolled, and he was not ready to ask the whole thing. He bowed deeply to his "commander" and left the room.
The lights in the room suddenly dimmed, and in the dim and subtle atmosphere, the weak breathing of the old man came for a long time.
Unlike what Tiexiong thought, Wan Zanghai's unanimous decision was not a power trick, but he really no longer cared about anything that happened in the exile fleet.
As his brain gradually depleted, his vitality passed by bit by bit, especially after experiencing the destruction of the earth and the massacre of the outer solar system, the external world of Wanzanghai gradually collapsed. Like all the old people, he became more and more addicted to painful memories, past regrets, as well as youth, teenagers and even childhood, those people and things.
He gradually developed vision and auditory hallucination, and often regarded the starship he was riding on as a steel giant beast with rusty internal organs. The tortuous and dark corridor was just like the digestive tract of the giant beast, and he was suffering the most painful torture in the belly of the giant beast.
It is difficult for him to enter hibernation again. Even the most powerful hibernation potion cannot stop the flames, pools of blood, and evil spirits appearing in his dreams.
Those wronged souls, including the powerful and rich people who died tragically in his hands during the massacre of the outer solar system, and so many ordinary people who were discarded by him when he left the earth. Whether it was the powerful, rich or ordinary people, they turned into wronged souls. They were all the same - their faces were distorted, their faces were pale, and they stared at him with indescribable surprise, sorrow and despair.
They didn't have to shout or reach out, just looking at him with such desperate eyes, looking at him, and keeping looking at him, he couldn't bear it and was on the verge of collapse.
"Ahhhhh, retribution, retribution, this is our retribution!"
Sometimes, the old man would wake up from the nightmare, waving his thin arms, struggling like a drowning person, trying to break free from the ubiquitous fear and despair.
"We can't escape, we can't escape, hahahaha, no one can escape from the earth, no one!"
Sometimes, he would spend half a day staring at the tail of the ship, as if his eyes could penetrate the walls, cabins and corridors, penetrate the dark stars, travel back to the earth, and see the tragic situation of the earth after the catastrophe.
Is it important to protest, riots, return factions? It is not important at all. Even if there is no return factions, there will be all kinds of strange and strange theories that expose the ugliest side of human nature and kill the hope of survival.
Even if they can survive and reach their destination after thousands of difficulties, are they still them and humans at that time?
He didn't know, he really didn't know.
In his youth and youth, he once made great ambitions and wanted to look for hope at the end of the universe.
But when he was about to die, he realized what the human will was in front of the vastness of the starry sea, and how tragic the price it would have to pay to fight against the starry sea and "go against the sky".
He failed in the end.
Finally, it has come to the end of life.
After all, there is no hope of finding a way to reverse time - even if he has become inhumane and pays all the price to turn himself into an unrecognizable demon!
Those joyful and sad, righteous and evil, trust and betrayal, sinking and rising, human and beastly nature, angels and demons—whatever, they are all jokes, dusty jokes.
Is this the end?
Wan Zanghai asked himself.
Then, he heard the faint whimper, the pain of the disaster and the joy of reunion after a long time, and the crisp and pleasant voice like a lark shouted: "Brother?
Wan Zanghai's eyes suddenly widened, and the sudden blue veins and black old man spots instantly disappeared a lot. He seemed to have regained his former vitality and could not believe his ears until the voice appeared again: "Brother, I finally found you!"
It's my sister's voice.
Wan Zanghai was in a daze, as if he saw a crystal clear light curled up in the corner of the wall, faintly condensed into a human form, like a legendary ghost, turning into a ragged little girl, white, tender and very cute. Unfortunately, his legs were so thin that they were a little deformed and could not support the weight of his body. He could only curl up there all day, blinking his big watery eyes, and looking at him pitifully.
The sea of all hidden secrets is like falling into a nightmare, and you cannot do it yourself.
Tumorous tears burst out from his eyes, almost blinding his eyes, making him unable to see everything around him, and only his sister who had been separated for hundreds of years.
"Bai Ling'er, is it you, Bai Ling'er?"
Wan Zanghai breathed heavily, rolled out of the bed, crawled towards the ghost in the corner of the wall, and stretched out his hand tremblingly, "Where have you been? For more than a hundred years, I have been looking for you, I can't find you, I can't find you, Bai Ling'er!"
"I can't find you either, brother. At first I couldn't find you, but later I didn't dare to find you, for fear that it would ruin you."
It seemed like the ghost of the little girl, and two winding crystals were drooping on her face, "At that time, everyone and I stayed in the village obediently, waiting for you and my elder brother to come back with food and potions, waiting for you to wait for you to come back without coming back. We ventured out and saw that Tombstone Town was destroyed, and all nearby towns were destroyed. Later, the Citi Gang, Vulture Gang, and Poison Scorpion Gang were destroyed. The entire blood wasteland had lost its order. Many bad people wandered around, our village was also destroyed, and most of them were dead. Because of my "ability", I was sold for goods. For more than ten or twenty years, I didn't know what I was and where I was.
"After that, my 'ability' became stronger and stronger. Many people gathered around me and called me the 'Goddess'. I gradually found out about my brother's whereabouts-but at this time, you are already a big figure with a bright future, a shining star of tomorrow. I cannot disturb you even more and let those bad people discover your true identity. I know that you must have suffered a lot since you came to this day, and I cannot ruin you.
