    Chapter 180 The bottom of the ruins (4)

    "Tell you not to watch next time, you probably won't listen."

    After Lean sighed, he controlled Jin Xiaozhi's crown to stop outside the crystal nest.

    In the dream, the last distance also disappeared.

    Jiang Jianming finally stopped crying, even though the dense pain was still tearing at his chest.

    He seemed to be able to guess what was going to happen next, but he couldn't seem to guess at all.

    Ryan and the Black Shark Base have been completely disconnected. There are no instruments here, no scientific researchers, and he has run out of fuel.

    What does this person have to do to extract the crystal particles from the body?

    "ginger."

    Lean looked at the starry sky in the distance peacefully, "I still think you are here."

    On his skin, which had been damaged by backlash, fine crystalline substances began to appear.

    "I used to, just want to give you a complete and free life in this new empire that you have been looking forward to for a long time."

    "Especially...after learning that your matching base is an amorphous race again."

    Jiang Jianming was stunned.

    He frowned, "...what?"

    He suddenly reacted, and then breathed quickly.

    Sure enough... I am also the matrix that carries the projection of consciousness, and I used to be in the same era as Emperor Kaios!

    Although he already had guesses in his heart, he had done all kinds of calculations, but he never thought that it would be confirmed under such bizarre circumstances!

    "Lin Ge said that you should never remember those hardships, live a normal life, and never be involved in the war with the crystal particles. Me too... I too..."

    Ryan was at a loss for words. Jiang Jianming stared at him, and couldn't help but pick up the sentence: "Do you also think that is the best choice for me?"

    "But," Ryan blinked with a smile, and said softly, "but I happened to meet you again, again."

    Once again, see your eyes looking up at the sea of ​​stars, and your unwilling to be mediocre soul.

    It turns out that no matter whether it is in a ruined wasteland of troubled times or a prosperous empire born in a seemingly peaceful world, the unyielding will never yield.

    "So I know you'll come...I want you to come."

    No matter how long the road is, no matter how tired you will be in the middle of the journey, even if the price is to recall those past sufferings again.

    I want you to cut through thorns and trek here...

    The young prince closed his eyes, his eyebrows furrowed in pain, and rich crystal particles began to overflow from his wound!

    "Back to our unfinished journey."

    one more time.

    Be the one who brings dawn to the Empire.

    "Come to see me and accompany me to triumph."

    Numerous red-golden broken crystal lines tore apart the flesh and crawled all over the crown prince's skin, making him look like a cracked crystal doll.

    Jiang Jianming looked at this scene in astonishment.

    "Wait," even subconsciously wanted to reach out, his fingertips pierced through nothingness to realize how stupid it was, "you want to..."

    A white light flashed in his mind, and he seemed to understand.

    ——The crystal particles were implanted into the human body, but the two wars before and after have proved that Ryan can rely on the mental will to counter-suppress the consciousness of the crystal particles.

    What if a person's control of crystal particles reaches a certain height, and he can even control the consciousness of every crystal particle in his body?

    Is it also possible to forcibly detach the crystal particles from the body?

    What if a person's control over crystal particles even exceeds the racial consciousness of crystal particles returning to the crystal nest?

    Is it possible to make those crystal particles stay somewhere for a long time after being detached?

    Like a courtier kneeling in the dark waiting to be called.

    After waiting for several years, someone will come.

    Jiang Jianming was horrified.

    Memories are spinning. Yin Beidou, the Heroic Spirit Monument, the crown of Jin Xiao covered with dark blood...

    He used Set to open the cockpit, and the rich crystal particles rushed towards him, causing him to collapse and cry like today.

    "If you want...I...I will..."

    Ryan raised his hand with difficulty, his eyebrows soft.

    "Always be ahead of you..."

    "Protect you."

    Bloody fingers tapped on the keyboard, leaving five lines of characters.

    Those are the five-line characters that have made Jiang Jianming dream back countless times in the middle of the night and are unforgettable.

    The next second, Jiang Jianming heard the sound of tearing.

    so close.

    "...!"

    Ryan's body tightened, he gritted his teeth in pain, and the veins on his forehead burst.

    It was as if an invisible hand pulled the crystal particles out of his body, and the glued flesh, muscles and bones were torn apart, and blood rained.

    Boom, a muffled sound.

    The severe pain that shattered his body made Ryan unable to sit still any longer. He fell down from the driver's seat and fell on the icy deck, his long platinum hair soaked in blood.

    He groaned softly, his fingers spasmed, rubbing messy red marks on the ground.

    This is just the beginning.

    Soon, the second tear broke out again, and white bones could be seen in the cracked flesh; then the third and fourth times, the internal organs ruptured, the bones were broken, and the blood vessels exploded.

    "Ignite the withered years"

    Such a proud and powerful king can only breathe in his own blood at this moment.

    Ryan choked blood from the throat, but with a smile at the end of his eyes, he said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid..."

    The frequency of tearing was getting faster and faster, and more and more blood was stained in Jin Xiaozhi's cockpit, and it gradually became a familiar look to Jiang Jianming.

    "Through the Remnants of an Old Civilization"

    "Don't even think about learning from me..."

    Ryan murmured hoarsely, "I can do this because I've been from the beginning... Heh, you'll remember."

    "...You will meet sooner or later," his eyes suddenly slackened, "remember all..."

    Jin Xiaozhi was quiet inside, and his voice echoed and dissipated.

    "With Wanli Hanxing"

    Jiang Jianming watched.

    He didn't even dare to blink, he just watched his little highness tear himself into a shredded, inhuman form, until he fainted with anger.

    Outside the mecha, the universe is still eternally silent.

    In the darkness, Jiang Jianming approached gently.

    He was on one knee in a pool of blood.

    "Your Highness."

    His voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of breaking something.

    "Before the dawn of mankind"

    Jiang Jianming simply lay down, lying next to Ryan in the dark blood.

    He felt as if he was sinking into the sea of ​​stars, and his mood was never as sad, but never as far away.

    "My original body, who is the person who deserves this, eh?"

    Across the hellish scene of Shura, his eyes glowed with water, and he gently rubbed the tip of his nose on Ryan's forehead like a cat.

    "I'm just a... ordinary..."

    Weak strength, humble status, without you, nothing can be done...

    "It's just human beings."

    "Wake up in my arms..."

    "Is not it?"

    Jiang Jianming asked in a soft nasal voice, "Huh?"

    I know can't hear, know...

    He also asked, "Your Highness, why do you love me so much?"

    Like Ryan asked him a similar question.

    "ring……"

    Suddenly, Ryan opened his eyes slightly, his consciousness was blurred, and his breath was weak, "The ring...wearing..."

    "Wear it at all times..."

    Jiang Jianming sighed softly and said, "Got it."

    "I love you, Jiang...I love you."

    As she was dying, fine water droplets wet her eyelashes again.

    The man actually cried again.

    "This time, can you..."

    "Promise me... let me love you..."

    It seems that after the memory fusion, some of the characteristics of Ryan have become much softer, whether he is crying or laughing, it is so fresh.

    But that creepy tear broke out again.

    "Didn't you already promise?"

    Jiang Jianming's voice was ethereal, "Your proposal, and this ring."

    "Next time... also..."

    "Also agreed."

    That's it until everything quiets down.

    The boy who was no longer in human form leaned quietly beside the driver's seat.

    He should have died, but he didn't.

    His body changed. Crystals began to pop out in a chaotic manner, filling his broken wound.

    Like Margaret, he's turning into a whole new monster.

    If there is any difference, it is that Ryan is obviously still conscious, and the crystal particles in his body continue to escape!

    Jiang Jianming could only watch. The emotions of shock and grief switched too quickly, and his mind was a little numb now.

    He thought blankly about what Ryan had just said - Ryan said, "I've been..." from the beginning, what is it?

    What is the origin of Kaios the Great...

    Confused, Jiang Jianming couldn't remember for a while.

    Ryan frowned inwardly, and those mutations rose and disappeared in him.

    He seemed to be worried about damaging the mecha, set the last program on the control screen, then struggled to get up and pushed open the cockpit door, throwing himself out.

    Outside the cabin door, is a white crystal nest.

    Because of the weapons that had been penetrated before, the ground of the crystal nest was full of cracks, and many places lost its luster, and the majestic crystal particles were chaotically wandering, trying to repair those scars.

    The boy covered in blood fell on top of Bai Jing.

    Behind him, the built-in program of L-Jin Xiaozhi started, and the mecha flew out of the crystal nest.

    After a period of time, it will be recovered by the first fortress of Yin Beidou, and then sleep in the Heroic Spirit Monument for a long time.

    Ryan turned back and squinted to see Jin Xiaozhi's crown disappear into a small dot.

    The tug-of-war between the rise and fall of the crystals on his body continues, and he no longer resembles a human life form at this moment.

    His task has also been completed.

    He penetrated the weapons of the Black Shark Base into the crystal nest, served as a guide for Yin Beidou, and left the crystal particles of the entire matrix behind.

    Even if he took 10,000 steps back and said that Jiang Jianming did not choose this cruel road, when the day when the crisis really came, he would at least hand over the Crystal Bone Ring and Wisdom Brain Set to the Empire.

    At that time, this power can still escort future generations.

    So, whether it's private or public.

    Whether for the survival of the race, or for his lover.

    He has done it all.

    Throughout the ages, these two have often been in conflict. Now that I can have both, I'm really lucky.

    But Ryan still moved forward and walked into the depths of the crystal nest.

    Just like a long time later, Jiang Jianming will walk under the fortress to protect the unconscious him, knowing that he is in a desperate situation, but still meet the tide-like alien creatures with sharp blades.

    Those who are brave will fight until the last moment before they are willing to make their proud neck accept the kiss of death.

    The space in all directions vibrated slightly.

    The terrifyingly dense crystal particles swarmed, biting the emperor who had once discouraged them.

    They once polluted the consciousness of this man, and now they can finally torture his body and corrupt his spirit.

    "bring it on."

    Ryan stretched his arms contemptuously, "Look at you...that's all..."

    He said, the crystal particles that belonged to him in the body continued to escape, and it seemed that he had to squeeze out the last trace before he was willing to give up.

    L-Jin Xiaozhi's crown is far away, but just right.

    The crystal particles he controls are too overbearing, and the space in the cockpit is very small.

    Over time, after the consciousness wears off, too high a concentration of crystal particles may hurt Jiang Jianming.

    "The rest..."

    Ryan said to himself, "I'll see you in advance, I miss you so much."

    He closed his eyes. In the microscopic world invisible to the human eye, a colorless and transparent crystal particle trembled to the extreme——

    ——……Soon.

    It turned red gold.

    Like a seed, or a handful of sparks.

    Sparks start a prairie fire.

    The last stream of crystal particles suddenly pulled up from Ryan's body, pulling the last trace of life force away from the matrix.

    Hundreds of millions of particles shimmering with red gold detached from the young prince's body, circling like a nebula. They broke away from the dead crystal nest and ascended into the universe.

    Like a white bird stained with blood, fluttering its wings.

    My love, please give me the loneliness to cross the darkness.

    Let me fly over the sea of ​​stars and come back to you.

    ...

    Before this vast and broken dream came to an end, Jiang Jianming saw where this stream of crystal particles was going.

    He saw that this meager thought trudged through the dark universe, traversing a distance of several light-years.

    "They" lost their way countless times, almost forgot themselves countless times, and were destroyed countless times by other crystal particles in the universe.

    But "they" woke up countless times, continued to move forward countless times, and even countered the crystal particles that tried to commit crimes countless times, transmitting their self-consciousness farther and faster.

    Later, "they" arrived in the Empire.

    Arrived in the first galaxy.

    Arrived at the Imperial City.

    At that time, the third district of the imperial capital Aslan Star City was at night. On the highest mountain in Star City, a torrential rain poured down.

    Scholars once predicted that there will be a beautiful meteor shower today.

    Many backpackers are ready for a dream night at the top of the mountain. It's a pity that the god of heaven does not make beauty, so he can only come with the happiness, and return when he fails.

    No one could have predicted that at this time, there would be a young disabled human who had to climb a mountain in this rainy weather, holding a dead crystal in his hand.

    As if no one could have predicted that the story of all these had already opened a chapter earlier and earlier.

    Later later.

    The rain stopped and the clouds dissipated.

    The washed night sky is clearer than ever, like a piece of black-blue glass.

    The disabled human being has been infected with crystal chaos, and he was soaked all over, shivering in the mud and grass, fainted countless times under the severe pain of the disease, and even when he woke up, he was still confused.

    So... when he vaguely saw the red-gold "meteor shower" streaking across the sky, thousands of brilliant colors like birds returning to their nests, weeping and running towards him.

    It was only mistaken for a fantasy.
