[She wants to prove to you that the human beings and human civilization that you have sentenced to death can also persist and struggle.]
[As for this embrace that conceals everything, it may be a romantic solution based on the gratitude for saving a life, the imprint of a connection, and the threat of unbearable consequences. ]
[It's pretty cute.]
【But it is impossible for humans to win now. 】
[If your message had not been hidden by the Fire Moth leaders, if human civilization had not advanced in technology as it is now. ]
[Then you still have the means and interest to lead a group of game characters to strengthen Honkai. ]
[Unfortunately, there are no ifs in the world. 】
[Now the Herrscher of Ice can easily destroy a country, so what should we do if the Herrscher of the End, who is many times more powerful than the Herrscher of Ice, jumps out? ]
[Even if you tell everyone present that "the strength of Honkai will increase as civilization advances in technology", it will not help. After all, you can't do anything to the Herrscher of the End at the current Honkai strength. With the current combat power of human civilization, it's just a waste.]
[Once the race between human civilization and collapse begins, it is doomed to never stop. 】
[The only way for humans to defeat Honkai now is to drag it out. Just drag it out. 】
[Wait until someone can develop a divine weapon that can completely nullify Honkai or even enslave Honkai.]
【ha. 】
[If the previous civilization really had such an opportunity, then the current civilization would have no chance of appearing. ]
[Why don’t you win? Is it because you don’t want to? 】
[Besides, the biggest enemy that humans have to face has never been Honkai. ]
[Having previously had the “good fortune” of witnessing the exquisite micromanagement of the Fire Moth’s top brass, you are certain that they will come up with something big again. ]
[Due to various factors, if there is no external intervention, humans will not be able to overcome the collapse, and human civilization will not be able to survive. 】
[So, are you going to let Mei devote herself to this impossible and hopeless career? ]
[In other words, do you want to watch her determination and awareness being eaten away bit by bit by the huge despair? ]
【Seeing her brilliance, you already have the answer in your heart. 】
Under the gentle light, Lu Mian turned away from the crowd around him, raised his hand to comb the girl's long purple hair, which was obviously well-groomed and looked like a waterfall of stars, and then took the opportunity to hold her in his arms.
His voice was very soft, and only the two of them could hear it:
“Keep on holding on, keep on struggling, I promise you, even if the end of the road is not prosperous and blooming and commensurate with a good ending, it will definitely not be a bad ending in line with universal values.
"Besides, we are embracing each other, there is no need to be so distant."
"Yeah." Mei responded in a voice as soft as a mosquito, leaning gently in Lu Mian's arms.
As Lu Mian and Mei embraced each other, the originally noisy environment around them suddenly became quiet.
Both of them knew the true meaning of this hug, but no one else present knew.
Paduo, Ying and Wei Erwei looked at Lu Mian and Mei hugging each other and were silent for a while. Then they all looked normal and continued chatting.
It's just a normal hug, no need to worry about it.
Judging from Mei's current mediocre performance, she is not even qualified to join the iron-blooded pro-Lu faction.
Because it seemed that she had never kissed Lu Mian.
The two brothers, Leon and Qianjie, had been playing games, having so much fun that they didn't even bother to observe their surroundings.
Mobius, who was originally very quiet, was so absorbed in his research on the T-virus that he didn't notice the changes in his surroundings at all.
Hua faced Yu Yu in the corner and sensed that the surrounding environment suddenly became deserted. She quickly turned her head and glanced behind her.
It's like nothing happened.
She turned her head back to the corner and continued listening to the music.
Kosmo, who had unexpectedly gained a little "sunshine", swayed left and right with the sunflower even more vigorously, occasionally glancing at the situation over there with Lu Mian and Mei, but looking away without even a second.
How can the affairs between men and women be as interesting as sunflowers?
There were only two people in the audience who reacted to Lu Mian and Mei's hug.
One is Alicia.
The girl, who witnessed the whole process but heard nothing, stared at the scene in front of her in disbelief.
She suddenly felt that the sweet sugar in her mouth became a little bitter, and it seemed to have changed its original definition.
Isn't this wedding candy?
Don't do this kind of thing!
Surprised, the clever Alicia immediately thought of all the details she had seen before.
So the person who was chatting with Mei on the phone at that meeting was Lu Mian?
To be honest, Alicia was not surprised by what was happening before her.
Although she didn't know the information related to the engraving, she was also clear that Lu Mian saved Mei's life.
But when did the relationship between the two of them become so heated?
Why is there no sign at all?
Why are you so skilled?
Alicia couldn't control her doubts.
Another person who had the same reaction as Alicia was Kevin, who was forced by Dante to play games.
Kevin stared at Lu Mian and Mei in a daze, his mouth opened as wide as if it could fit two eggs.
He also said that after he caught up with the Fire Moth, Mei, who used to be able to exchange a few words with him at school, suddenly became a real ice cube and ignored him.
So this is the reason! ?
It hurts, it hurts too much!
Why is this? !
Kevin actually knew why he was in pain, because there was an old guy next to him who patted his shoulder with his big hand.
My shoulder hurts, it hurts so much!
Chapter 23: Starting to Eat Meat (Three in One)
"Clap clap-!"
It hurts, my shoulder hurts so much!
Even though Kevin, who has always had good physical fitness, was hit very hard by Dante's big hand.
He turned around with a bitter look on his face and said "hiss haha".
Dante pointed at the screen in front of them with an unhappy look on his face:
On a gray screen, the game character controlled by Kevin, who looked no different from Dante, was lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread out, dying in a very funny way, with a monster next to him showing off his power.
"Kevin, was there something wrong with the way you played this time?" Dante, who was conducting the trial on the spot, put away the unpleasant expression on his face, but did not act too seriously.
Kevin, who knew that he was just observing Lu Mian and Mei secretly, obeyed and scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Yes, um, um, there was something wrong with my typing."
He then started another game and no longer paid attention to the situation between Lu Mian and Mei.
Kevin himself also had something to say. He was just shocked that Lu Mian, his savior, and Mei, his secret crush, could get together "quietly".
As for the heartache and sadness caused by the girl you like running away with someone else.
It seemed like there was, but it was all overshadowed by the pain in my shoulder.
After all, if one adds up the time they spent together at school and the time they worked together at Fire Moth, the communication between him and Mei can only be measured in "a few words".
How much love must one have to feel torn apart by such an unprovoked relationship that hasn't even reached the starting line?
Let’s just play games, they’re quite fun.
Lu Mian, you must be happy!
Mei? Wish her all the best, too.
Thinking of this, Kevin seemed to have returned to the time when he skipped classes with his good brother "Su".
There is no need to worry about whether the world will be destroyed tomorrow, or what a hero is and what he should do. Just repeat your life day after day, simple and without too many worries.
It's the old times that can never go back.
He fought harder and harder, but accidentally pulled his painful shoulder out of excitement.
It hurts, it hurts too much!
The sudden pain destroyed all the memories and beauty.
Just like the unexpected collapse that destroyed everything the young man had, forcing him to struggle hard to move forward.
Dante, who only liked to sit aside and watch others play games, looked at Kevin's grief-stricken expression as if he had lost both his parents in an instant, and scratched his head:
"what happened again?"
Hearing this, Kevin paused the game and looked at Dante. His blue eyes dimmed and his expression was complicated. "I just miss my brother. I don't know if he is still alive now."
He couldn't say that his shoulder hurt, nor could he express the confusion and doubt in his heart, so he could only respond vaguely.
Dante was silent for a while. He was always fond of joking and making wisecracks, but now he was unexpectedly quiet.
No one knew what he was thinking at this moment.
Finally, the old man showed his cynical smile again, picked up a piece of pizza and stuffed it into Kevin's mouth, "Okay, let's take care of the present first, it's the same for everyone."
Looking at Dante's frivolous smile, Kevin read for the first time some vicissitudes of life contained in it, but he didn't understand anything. He just nodded slightly and responded with a signature sunny smile.
He is still young, he is still young.
On the other side, Lu Mian and Mei, the couple who had been hugging each other for a long time, finally let go of each other's arms and separated.
After they separated, Lu Mian naturally raised his hand to straighten Mei's collar of her white coat, which was messy from the hug. After thinking for a moment, he added:
"very beautiful."
"You," seeing Lu Mian raised his eyebrows, Mei immediately changed her words after remembering what he had said before, "as long as you think it's reasonable."
The two looked at each other and smiled, a tacit understanding that only they knew.
【The night is long, but it will eventually end.】
[In the end, the social gathering between Fire Moth and Game Life came to a successful conclusion.]
【Everyone gathered together, took several group photos, and stayed in the Game No Life company for another night.】
[The next day, after leaving a promise to "meet again at the next social gathering", the shining people dispersed.]
[When Hua, the old marginalized man, heard that he would have to participate in such torture again, he immediately turned around and ran away. ]
[As for whether she can avoid the next social gathering, it depends on whether Miss Pink Fairy is still professional. ]
[The Resident Evil duo, Qianjie walked in front, and Leon followed behind, and the two walked very far. 】
[It can be seen that the relationship between the two of them is really good. ]
[After collecting the "sunlight" for the whole night, Kosmo was unusually energetic and radiant, even swaying from side to side when he walked.]
[Seeing that he likes sunflowers so much, you gave him the swaying pot of sunflowers. ]
[You received a smile as bright as a sunflower, and many sincere thanks...]
[Compared to the previous few people, Dante and Kevin from the Devil May Cry group were much more direct. The two of them left together, arm in arm, without any hesitation. ]
[Some were sent off, some left, and in the end, only Mei and Mebius, a pair of genius and beautiful doctors, were left at the scene. ]
[Determined to show you the brilliance of "humanity", Mei nodded gently at you, then turned and left in the breeze.]
[The fluttering hem of his coat makes the scientist's white coat look like a hero's battle robe.]
