Trajectory of Dawn in the World of American Comics

Chapter 693 60. Life, let's bloom on the road to the future

"Snapped"

There was a slight sound of opening the door in the dead silent ruins, and at this dawn, the stars suddenly appeared.

This may be the last time Mason uses the World Gate. Although the K team has been disbanded and the stars will be finished, the placement of this thing is still accurate.

It's just that after opening the door, the scenery in front of me has changed.

The once bustling city is now only left with large ruins that spread to the end of the line of sight. Because the ecological environment has been destroyed, it is no longer suitable for human habitation. The ruins after the evacuation of life are particularly miserable, and only some bionic people from Arasaka Industry are still in it Work.

These hard-working androids have cleared out swaths of the rubble and built their minimalist assembly shop and "living quarters."

Although the labor and new life here is not a blessing, but for these bionics who have chosen to physically rebuild, everything they do in this real world is more meaningful than staying in cyberspace and wasting their lives in vain. many.

Of course, their aid to the reconstruction of the Isu world is not free, and it is impossible for a big company like Arasaka to come to do good deeds.

For example, this ruin has been designated by the Isu World as a construction area reserved for Arasaka Industry, and it will also become one of the many civilization restart points in the Mikoshi World in the future.

This is the result of discussions between Ms. Huazi and Sister Ka, and it also proves that not all people from the 2077 world are willing to follow in the footsteps of Batemos and transform into another form in the unknown mechanical kingdom.

Mechanical Ascension is a fine end point for the fate of the world.

But it has the same problem as the other endings, which is that it's not for everyone.

Life always has its own ideas, and although they are not always correct, this is obviously not a detail that Mason needs to intervene at this time. They are free, and they have the right to decide their own future as individuals without affecting the overall interests.

"After your people recover, they have to learn to coexist with a large group of androids. At least they must help each other in difficult times."

Mason walked among the ruins and said to Brother A beside him:

"I will ask Huazi to give you some preferential treatment."

"No need."

Moser shook his head and said firmly:

"They don't need special treatment!

Minecraft isn't so fragile that babies can't even take care of themselves. If they want to get their civilization back and find a perfect new home, they have to come by themselves.

Trust them.

When they used me as a counter-shock plan, they had already made preparations for the recovery of civilization in advance, and they even set up a fairly sophisticated permission tree in the genetic sequence of the black light virus.

Life doesn't come back all at once.

Those carefully selected elites will be the first to recover from my remains. They are the forerunners of civilization after the restart of the doomsday, and the ordinary people will follow.

They have plans and plans, just like you.

So, I believe they can do it. "

"Well, if you don't need preferential treatment from outside, maybe you, a legendary person, can give them some help?"

Mason blinked and said:

"For example, use the immortality and immortality of the black light virus to give them some genetic or life form enhancements? Is this necessary?"

He pointed to the land in front of him that was still blowing sandstorms in the dawn night, and said:

"Isn't it too difficult for you to let a group of ordinary people start civilization reconstruction in an area where the ecosystem has completely collapsed?"

"I won't do that."

Brother A stubbornly shook his head and said:

"My agreement with Ms. Cassandra is not like this, but I may be able to prepay the 'rent' for my people in advance for this land."

His words were very cryptic, but Mason nodded, obviously guessing how this guy persuaded Sister Ka and the assassin managers of this world.

Mason decided to respect Brother A's will and not get involved.

In this epic of civilization recovery, he is just a witness and bystander.

"Wait a mininute."

Mason made a gesture to signal Brother A not to rush to use the "Demon Disintegration Dafa". He stepped forward quickly, crossed a collapsed place that had been cleaned up by bionics, and walked in front of a sculpture.

He looked at the stone sculpture in front of him.

This is a figure carved from a single collapsed huge stone, and it is the scene of the Assassin saint John Wick holding the leadership module and generously dying.

The entire stone sculpture is restored quite vividly, which does not conceal Wick's embarrassment in the last stage of his life.

But it also fully demonstrated the perseverance and bravery of the assassin saint, especially the movement of him looking up at the starry sky, which perfectly restored Wick's last wish and conveyed a certain momentum of promoting the Isu people's unyielding attitude.

At first glance, it is a masterpiece.

Mason's inscriptions are also at level 9, and he definitely has enough evaluation rights in terms of carvings. After looking at the inscriptions under the stone carvings, he found that they were carved by Sister Ka herself. Such a high degree of completion is naturally understandable.

For an immortal who has lived for more than two thousand years, even taking the time to learn stone carving skills is enough to let her craftsmanship rise to the top.

"I would like to commemorate our bravest compatriot, John Wick. At the moment when our world was overthrown and civilization collapsed, he stood up, defeated the enemy of the stars with his courage and fearlessness, and won us a continuation. Power and dignity!

He is the model and symbol of the way of an assassin!

He is the embodiment of unyielding and tenacity in the hearts of all the Isu people. Under his watchful eyes, we will surely step into the future and step into the stars. "

Mason read out the inscription on the stone carving.

He noticed that there was a traditional and elegant Hidden Blade symbol under the stone carving, which represented Wick's identity.

He has become a true assassin saint, and his stories will be remembered in the next era along with the existence of the Isu civilization and sung in the sea of ​​stars.

Famousness isn't great for an Assassin, but given that Wick is dead, such fanfare is warranted.

"I think you may not like the statue they made for you. After all, your dog is not carved in it. It may make you feel lonely."

Mason said something softly, and took out the white flowers that had been prepared for mourning from his luggage and placed them in front of Wick's sculpture.

There are already piles of bouquets of flowers quickly weathered in the wind and sand, and obviously others will come here to honor their brothers and pioneer heroes through the vast storm.

That's fine.

A good civilization is one that respects and remembers heroes.

"We won, Wick."

Mason half-kneeled in front of the sculpture.

He gestured to Brother A, who was bowing his head in silence behind him, and the latter turned around and walked back a few seconds later with a stone of appropriate size.

Mason then took out the carving knife for inscriptions in his hand, and while carving skillfully, he said to the dead soul represented by the sculpture like an old friend talking:

"Although you haven't been able to see it with your own eyes, we have completed our expedition to Hell and disbanded the Constellation Society. The organization that once stared at your world has become a story that will eventually be forgotten in the Dark Ages.

Their chaos, wickedness, and madness will also be the talk of posterity, and you, too, will be a part of that story, perhaps an important one.

But I know, you don't really care about these.

Although you have never told me about your past life, it is not difficult for me to find such information.

Maybe when your wife died, you became a ghost wandering in the world, aimlessly advancing in a world that doesn't belong to you.

Only your dog is with you.

I don't know what you were thinking when you died, but I guess that death doesn't make you feel afraid. If there is really a paradise reserved for assassins, then you must be with your wife at this time. where reunion.

You are never alone.

You just did what you thought was necessary and worthwhile, and that was a true heroic act, and I'm honored to be part of your life experience and to be considered a trusted friend.

Nothing you have done has been in vain.

This allows me to finally muster up the courage to give you my last gift without regret. "

With the sound of the carving knife scratching the stone, a lifelike statue of a golden retriever was finished. Mason blew away the dust and debris on the stone sculpture, and then picked it up and placed it under Wick's statue.

Then stood up and took a look back.

Under the originally tragic and fearless statue of the dying man, a puppy was lying there licking his wound. The expression of the puppy was full of worry and nostalgia, which invisibly dispelled the chilling and despair of the sculpture. It adds a touch of warmth.

"How about it?"

Mason lit a cigarette, turned around and asked Brother A, who nodded and said in a hoarse voice:

"It's much better than before, at least it's no longer like a god statue hung on the wall, awed by all the eyes looking at him but no one really cares."

"Do you need me to carve one for you?"

The captain rolled his eyes and said:

"You can customize the shape and the thoughts you want to convey. I'm in a good mood today, and I only charge you a manual fee."

"Forget it, there's no need."

Brother A didn't know whether he was stingy or really didn't care, he waved his hand and said:

"I'm not someone who should be remembered, and my tombstone doesn't bother you. Let's go, it's almost dawn, and I want to finish this matter before dawn."

"Um."

Mason nodded and followed Brother A to leave here. When he turned around, he waved to the sculpture behind him and said:

"I'll take care of your dog, don't have to worry about anything, Wick, enjoy the reunion in your paradise."

A few minutes later, Brother A arrived at his destination. In fact, he was not far from Wick's sculpture. If the city was still there, it would be only a few blocks away.

Although it is full of ruins, the terrain is flat. Not far away, there is a water that is about to dry up leading to the half-remained harbor in the distance. The shape of the semi-surrounding valley is very suitable as a starting point for civilization.

Although it can't accommodate too many people, considering that Brother A's world only chooses this place as a temporary residence, they will definitely leave the Isu world to settle in a new place in the future, so this choice can be said to be perfect.

Mason raised his head and glanced at the sky. It was already the darkest hour of the day, and dawn would usher in ten minutes.

Unexpectedly, this brother A is usually a guy with such a strong sense of ritual. He probably also wants to play a bit of literature and art, so that his civilization can be revived in the light of dawn.

He is really a deeply hidden literary youth.

"Do you need my help?"

Mason puffed out the smoke ring and asked, Brother A shook his head.

He opened his bag and threw out a lot of jars. There were strange solid energy blocks inside. The captain didn't need to check it. He just sniffed it and knew that it was concentrated life energy. He didn't know what it was. Where did it come from.

This amount of energy is enough to resurrect the population of a small city.

Under Mason's gaze, brother A took a deep breath and took off his hood facing the distant ocean. He moved his five fingers to push the activity of the black light virus to the strongest, and then his fingers turned into black tendrils and inserted The surrounding jars extend like spider webs so that the ends of their tentacles can absorb enough energy.

His feet also pierced the ground like the roots of an old tree, extending downwards.

Like a thousand-year-old tree, in Mason's perception, he could feel the black tendrils running under the ground filling and running like dense blood vessels, quickly spreading in the slight vibration of the ground Under the small half of the ruins.

This movement was quickly detected by the bionic laborers working in the surrounding ruins, and a few minutes later, armed bionics riding an octant rushed over.

But seeing Mason standing there, the soldiers immediately dropped their weapons.

Although she is not a manager of Arasaka Industry, Miss Huazi, who is currently at the helm of the large group, is your secretary. Of course, those staff members who belong to the group must show the strongest respect to Mason.

The Commander-in-Chief's kindness to them will never end in several lifetimes.

Mason didn't chase away the approaching androids.

He allowed them to observe this process from the outside. Under the gaze of more and more people, brother A's body continued to elongate. After the infusion of enough life energy and the "spreading" program in the black light virus gene sequence officially started , his original life form is also being rapidly changed.

Like some kind of weird and absurd "alien", it lost its human form in just a few minutes and stood like a big black leafless tree.

His arms turned into trunk vines extending to the ground, and his body continued to expand, finally forming a trunk surrounded by solidified black biological horniness.

Weak branches were constantly piercing out from Mercer's back and looking around, and the bare trunks quickly formed a canopy covering the surrounding areas.

There are dark red light spots shining on the weird black branches, which is the last link in the spreading program of the continuously transformed life being sent into the black light virus.

This should be the most suitable way for him to spread his life that Brother A concluded through his research on the red power of all things.

Although it looks very scary, Mason can fully understand the principle of its effect. Under his silent gaze, the ends of the branches that are constantly diverging also form red "cocoons" like flower buds.

Like slender branches and fruit, they continue to expand until the branches are bent and they are gently placed on the ground one by one.

There is also reddish light dancing in those cocoons.

People with good eyesight can even see the rapidly forming embryos contained in the unknown substance, just like the process of the birth of clones, but Brother A accelerated this process with the black light virus that has evolved to the extreme.

In the exclamation of the bionic people behind Mason, those black branches continued to extend, branching from the main trunk, until finally forming a "black forest" covering the entire valley and the half-residual harbor.

At this time, brother A has turned into an existence that is difficult to describe in words, and he can no longer see his body as a life and any traces of human beings. He has transformed himself into this giant black tree over 100 meters high , those branches that extend like spider webs form layers of strange patterns.

Being in it is like standing in a living nest, and the number of embryos that have been spawned has exceeded tens of thousands and is still being born.

those light spots

Red light spots like fireflies rose from this strange black nest of life, and they were blown towards the city behind in the wind and sand of the dark night.

Mason stretched out his hand and let a reddish light fall on his palm.

He could feel the pure life force contained in this point of light, which began to dissolve and give as it fell.

There were bursts of exclamations from the bionic people behind them. When they saw the red light spot hit the ground, it would merge into the ground, and then green grass and flowers would grow rapidly.

Brother A's black light virus has devoured the entire world, not only humans but also beasts and plants, and he wants to regenerate these natural things while releasing his people.

This is the agreement between him and Sister Ka.

Sister Ka lent part of the world to his people, and Brother A wants to help Sister Ka reshape this wilderness into an ecosystem.

As the perfect host for the black light virus, Brother A can do this.

"click"

The soft sound of a large cocoon breaking into Mason's ears made the captain look up and follow the sound, and saw the first "hatched" cocoon under a black branch that went deep into the ground not far from him.

Like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon, a naked young girl with short hair was crawling out of it panting. Her body was stained with some kind of mucus.

Makes this scene look very evil.

But Mason recognized her, and the face that was 70% similar to Brother A was enough to prove her identity.

The captain turned his head in a very gentlemanly manner, took out a set of Harley's clothes from his bag and handed it over. On the eve of dawn, he whispered:

"Hi Diana, get dressed, you don't want to miss this next scene."
