   Chapter 745 Chapter 743 · "Fly to Spring."

   "Hey la la—!"

  Thousands of white feathers flew like a mighty snowfall.

  Innumerable, white-sided birds-they stabbed these bright red hoses desperately, blocking the attack for Noah with their flesh.

   Until they were completely pierced, their feathers were dyed bright red, and their bodies fell feebly—

  The City of Doom is home to many rare creatures, and the white bird is one of them.

   They are aggressive, free-spirited and arrogant. If a human were to force them, they would slam into a wall and kill themselves.

   But there is only one man who can bring them to their knees and make them fight for him.

   He has a temperament similar to that of Asuka. In the battle of dawn, he fought at high altitude, his blond hair fluttered, and his free and fearless posture was like a bird.

  —birds of the new century.

  Accompanied by the fiery flame, the fiery red Noah summoned the birds, he faced the scarlet light, the watch was firmly attached to the dawn system, enduring the tear-like emotional pain.

   He gasped and wailed, but did not step back. As if using his skeleton as a rope, it solidified in place.

  …

  【86%, 87%, 88%…】

  …

   "Crash-Crash-" Toba swelled, full of shrill voices. The blond youth turned his head sideways, feathers stuck to the side of his face, his expression was painful, and his face was covered in cold sweat enduring emotional resonance.

in this case,

   He even smiled slightly at Su Mingan, who was also covered in blood. Seems to be comforting each other.

look,

   will be fine.

  “…”

  Su Mingan always knew that Noah would be on his side.

   Even in the most difficult time, when even Sen and the others were about to give up on him, Noah did not let go and was always loyal to him.

   But the reason for all this is just…

  —It was he who forcibly manipulated Noah's emotions and turned the free bird into a person who only liked him.

  —It was his skills that stripped off the wings of the birds, making Noah willing to follow him and give everything for him.

  32 years after the catastrophe, District 11. Between the fragrance of tea, Noah was bound by the Manifestation Skill, and was forced to kneel to Su Mingan to be loyal. At that time, Noah had doubts what "autonomous will" really was?

   When calling out "Grandpa" affectionately and holding Su Ming'an's arm, did Noah remember that he didn't trust Su Ming'an's attitude very much at first?

but now,

  Among the white birds, Su Mingan heard his voice and saw the bright red and bright blue pupils, bright enough to almost split the night—

"grandfather."

   "—Every word we say, every action, and every choice we make is an inevitability formed based on our understanding of the past, the future, and the world."

   "—but we can't know whether these 'cornerstones' were sent to us by others, so whether someone manipulated me will never be known."

"so."

   Half of Noah's face was hidden in the bright red warning color, like a soldier fighting alone, his profile was stained with a solemn color. The hustle and bustle all around seemed far away.

   He looked at Su Mingan who was standing at the door from a distance, and smiled slightly:

   "I like you as a person, it has nothing to do with whether something is controlling me."

   "From the beginning, to the middle, and now, I have never regretted it. I don't think I will regret it even in the future."

   "—I love you, it has nothing to do with you."

  …

  Su Mingan breathed slightly.

  Noah's eyes were firm.

  The "love" of the ruined world will always have complex and profound meanings. They are not limited by the love of men and women, nor are they shackled by desire.

   Even if it is faith, it is anchor, it is hope, it is pure blessing - that is "love".

  Noah has long noticed that his affection for Su Mingan is inexplicable. It's not that he didn't think about getting rid of this strange goodwill.

   But on that day - the city of God was pushed open by Su Ming'an's hand, and Noah clearly remembered what Su Ming'an looked like at that time - he was like an angel bathed in light, pushing open the door of heaven for mankind.

   There is no tomorrow in the ruined world. Winter and eternal night, pain and numbness are the norm... But what Su Mingan wants to do is to fight against the gods with the power of mortals, and fight against this cruel and desperate order.

   This is the most dangerous, the most difficult, the most difficult thing to do.

   So, Noah thought,

   For those who can do this,

  —He can take the initiative to immerse himself in this sudden feeling, without doubting or resisting, and allowing himself to entrust all his trust in Su Mingan.

   - He was willing to pour all his emotions into Su Mingan, not asking much, not talking much, not thinking much, and since then he has become the most stupid "smart person".

  —He was willing to act like a big golden retriever, acting cute and coquettish, ignoring all violations and reflections until the last moment of his life.

  Pure, fiery, burning fiery love, the will to burn everything, the will to turn everything upside down—that’s love, and to friends, that’s love.

   Because Noah believed,

   Such a person will definitely bring the "all things reborn" that he expects and cannot be reached.

  Su Mingan deserves to be loved.

  …

  【Team Mu (21:23): Get out of here first! 】

  …

   The blue text flashed, and Su Mingan saw Team Mu's prompt.

   "What about Noah?" Su Mingan said.

  If he leaves here, even if Noah successfully invades the Dawn system, he will be overwhelmed by the mechanical army that follows him.

  …

  【Team Mu (21:23): His progress is enough to reach 100%, and now you need to go to the center console to take over the authority! Leave him alone. 】

  …

  Su Mingan glanced back at Noah, he was still clinging to the dawn system, as if hugging the fiery red heart, his blond hair was flying, dazzling like a sunflower.

  The two-dimensionality that cannot go into the future, the imprisonment of those in power who are full of goodwill, the heavy responsibility of the nine seats, and the emotional empathy that is enough to make people collapse.

   His body is obviously full of shackles,

The    posture is as free as a bird.

   Seeing Su Mingan looking back, Noah pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled again. He was almost speechless, his ears were filled with all kinds of resonating human voices, and his five senses were blurred to the extreme.

   "Grandpa, you don't need to work hard." Noah's voice was faint:

   "The person who can stand the limit in your place...it can be me."

   "Go and leave me alone."

   "If you can bring back spring, if you can send this difficult fate of mankind to the future..."

   Like a silent statue, a ray of light in the depths of the haze, Noah finally could not make a sound, he just opened and closed his lips slightly, kept his posture close to Su Mingan, and silently said the last words—

  …

  …

   Go.

  —Instead of me, fly to spring.

  …

  …
