Chapter 803 Chapter Eight Hundred Two · "Watching a wedding."

On January 72, 1, the War of Dawn came to an end.

Under the ginkgo tree by the river, a blond boy stared at the wild flowers all over the mountains and hundreds of black coffins passing slowly.

In his field of vision, thousands... no, countless people are walking along with these coffins.As the sun sets, people's robes are dyed golden, like a flowing river.

This river flows from the inside of the city-state to the outside of the city, runs through the streets and alleys, and flows through the wide squares and narrow alleys.It was as if there was a silent, vast and heavy force coming together, carrying their footsteps and crushing the spot of light on the ground.The funeral procession stretched for miles, from one end of the sky to the other.

Surrounded by them are coffins as black as ink.

Due to the fact that there were too many victims in the war, the names of many of them were unknown. These coffins contained not the corpse or ashes of a specific person, but the relics left by countless victims.

Some are a blood-stained knot, some are a broken family portrait, some are a torn handkerchief, even a feather, a piece of tea... These relics are not collected completely and cannot cover every victim, but Their bones have been incorporated into the land for a long time.

Under the footsteps is the hometown.

"Crash-"

The white bird fluttered its wings, and its snow-white feathers fell from the sky.Some children raised their heads and looked at the golden light under the sky.Today's sunshine is exceptionally good, even the city-state's cold rain all night was dried up. When the child raised his head, his pupils were filled with warm golden light.

The sunshine is so good, there is an impulse to make people cry.

It seems that the heavy snow that has been simulated for 40 times and lasted for [-] years can be burned.

Suddenly, a loud voice came from under the hillside.A middle-aged man led a team towards the seeing-off team.

"—560 two fighters from the Freedom Alliance, seeing off the 360 soldiers who died in the war."

At the head of the line, an old lady with white hair glanced at them and nodded.They also naturally blended into the send-off team, moving forward slowly with the team, like a winding black dragon.

"—1000 two hundred and thirty-six judges in the court, seeing off the 36 million soldiers who died in the war."

Another sound came, and the gates of the city-state opened wide, and an extremely long procession came out, each holding a small black box in their hands.

The team continued to expand, and more and more teams joined it, like a river flowing into the sea.

"—The 560 and 360 residents of Hope City are seeing off the [-] soldiers who died in the war." The gray-haired city lord Yalin arrived with a mighty crowd, each with a solemn expression.

"—650 and eight residents of Antuofa City..." followed by another team.

"—340 four residents of Rock City..."

"—One thousand, one hundred and sixty-eight residents of Hibimi City..."

"..."

"..."

More and more people joined the funeral team. Each team was from various forces that participated in the war in the past 40 years. Each of them participated in this cruel and long-term war more or less.

Rivers flow into rivers, which converge into new rivers.Gradually, the river evolved into the sea, and the river flowed into the sea, endlessly.

Until a clear voice——

"—Two members of the battle group, seeing off the 360 soldiers who died in the war."

This is the faction with the smallest number of people, and it is simply too small compared to a large team of hundreds or thousands of people.

They are just two people.

In the breeze, Che came striding forward, with the blood-colored cloak fluttering in the wind behind him.Next to him was a girl with a rapier at her waist, also wearing a blood-colored cloak, holding a pitch-black urn in her hand.Inside the box is a monument to humanity.

A pure white lily was tied to the urn, its petals stained with dew.

The first bouquet of lilies in spring has withered, and the second, third... thousands of lilies in spring have a chance to bloom.The white-haired old man of the Kelstia family had already led his granddaughter for a walk in the bright sunshine.

"—Ruyuan, one of the Nine Alliances, sees off the 360 soldiers who died in the war."

A red-haired man came, he also did not lead a huge team, and his voice was not loud.He just gave a low voice and blended into the crowd.

"——Violet, the free force, led 120 nine mercenaries to see off the soldiers who died in the war."

Violet took part in the funeral with volunteer players.This war infected these players who claimed to be the fourth natural disaster. Even though there was no system reward for participating in the funeral, they came to participate.

"—Hingdog Dongxu, Xudong, leading the 390 four Eagle Dog Guards to see off the soldiers who died in the war."

"—Eden Meila and Cheng Luohe led 290 eight researchers to see off the soldiers who died in the war."

Then there is the old lady Meila wearing the badge of Eden, and the sniper Cheng Luohe who has lost one eye.

"—Yaoguang Anita..."

"——680 five residents of Thirteen City..."

Soldiers, generals, ordinary residents, vagrants, mercenaries, players, students, farmers... people from all walks of life gathered in the team.

Among the turbulent sea of ​​people, some people wept silently, while others had solemn expressions.The setting sun was sinking, and even the coffin was glowing with a layer of shining gold.

The world of ruins is too big for everyone to be present, but it seems that all the nostalgia are gathered here to end this huge war.

The smoke cleared, and the white birds sang around.This is a spring earned by countless lives struggling to burn.

On the hillside in the distance, Noel watched this scene.

Facing the air, he murmured:
"It is said in "The Brothers Karamazov"-I love mankind, but I am really puzzled by myself: the more I love mankind as a whole, the less I love specific people. I often intend to devote myself to mankind with passion, But I cannot stay in the same room with anyone for two days: the more I hate a particular person, the more passionately I love humanity as a whole."

He stopped talking to himself, and murmured in a low voice: "...So, is there some kind of 'procedure' controlling you?"

While he was thinking, a "girl" in a Lolita skirt came over.

"Noel, if there are no accidents, tomorrow will be the last day of the dungeon." Yamada Machiichi said.

Noel stopped talking to himself, and smiled at Yamadachoichi:

"Yes, today is February [-]th, the day after tomorrow we can catch up with the seventh day of the Lunar New Year in Dragon Kingdom, and we can make up for the new year."

"I remember you are from Yu country?" Yamada Machiichi said.

"Not really." Noel shook his head: "But it should be very interesting to celebrate the New Year of the Dragon Kingdom with you. When I traveled around the world, no one accompanied me to celebrate these festivals. Since I met you, it seems that many Things got interesting."

He said, fiddled with something in the palm of his hand.

It was only then that Yamada Machi realized that Nuoer was holding a snow-white bird in his hand. The white bird seemed to like Nuoer very much, and kept rubbing Nuoer's palm.

"If we come back the day after tomorrow... I've already figured out a general itinerary." Nuo Er said: "On the first day, we will follow the customs of the Dragon Kingdom. Let's make dumplings, cut paper, paste Spring Festival couplets, and cook New Year's Eve dinner together? Su Mingan will like these ?"

As a Fuso native, Yamada Machichi pondered for a moment: "I don't know much about Dragon Country's festivals."

If you were an ordinary Longguo person, you should have been bored with the activity of making dumplings.But for Su Mingan, who no longer has a family at the age of ten... Maybe these activities are really novel.

Nuoer whispered: "I heard that the people of Long Kingdom like to have a lot of people, how about we invite more people?"

"Hmm..." Yamada-cho didn't know how to respond when he saw Noel's shining eyes.

"Lin Yin is definitely invited, and Luna and Lu may be fine too. As for Lu Shu and others..." Nuoer frowned at this point: "If Lu Shu is not here, Su Ming'an will not be happy... It seems that Lu Shu must Bring it. And Su Rin... Su Rin probably won't come, I can hardly imagine him making dumplings."

"Do you think Lu Shu is still alive?" Yamada Machiichi said.

"I guessed who Lu Shu was, so he should still be alive." Noel said.

"Who is it!" Yamada Machi was in a panic.

Noel shook his head and said nothing: "As for the next day, let's go to the New World Guild together. I have already asked Sero to build a suitable weapon for each of you. How about we go to the zoo the next afternoon? I heard It is said that there is a super-large zoo in a district, whether it is feeding white pigeons in the square, or going to the botanical garden to see flowers, it will be very interesting.”

"On the third day, we can freely choose where to play. If Su Mingan's power-holder skills have been upgraded, maybe we can still go to Playa to play? Machiichi Yamada, is there any place you want to go?"

"I……"

Seeing Noel who was rarely chattering, the uneasiness in Yamada Machi's heart became heavier.

Noel always does, masking crisis with optimism.Obviously Noel himself is the most dangerous person now, but he has been thinking about how to bring everyone happiness.

After the end of the Ninth World, Noel will definitely be taken away by the organizers for investigation... As for the results of the investigation, no one knows what will happen.

Is it business as usual, or will Noel never be able to play the game again, or will it be the worst end... Yamada Machichi himself is afraid.

"Noel, aren't you afraid?" Yamada-cho looked at Noel.

Noel's voice faltered.

His blue pupils trembled slightly, but there was no extra emotion in them.

"I'm afraid." After a while, Noel said.

"Afraid?" Upon hearing this, Yamada-cho stared at Noel's face, but he didn't even notice the slightest bit of fear.

"I'm actually scared," Noel repeated.

Even when he said this, he still kept smiling.Like a perfect china doll, people think he is always smiling.

"Yamada, of course I'm afraid." Noel said, "I'm afraid I'll never see those kids again, I'm afraid I'll be detained on trumped-up charges, I'm afraid I'll never be able to start a journey again and lose my life and freedom It's scary for anyone."

When talking about this, Noel raised his head and stared at the dark coffins in the distance: "But there are some things that make people unwilling, which can make me higher than these fears."

Yamada-cho blinked and said suddenly: "Noel, if you have authority, then you will surely lead us all to victory. If you don't have authority, then you will surely be safe. Both outcomes are good, so, I think the future might be really good."

Noel was slightly taken aback, looking at Yamada Machikazu's firm eyes.

He smiled slightly.

"Yes."

"The future may be really good."

"Yamada, I think about what we can do on the third day."

"What?" Yamada Machiichi asked in confusion.

"..."

Noel's pupils reflected memories.

Pictures of memories floated in his mind, accompanied by the past that he never said.

Bouquets, rings, wedding cakes, churches, orchestras, clocks at twelve in the morning.

His hands clenched slightly.The white bird flew up from his hand, landed on his shoulder, and gently pecked his cheek.

His smile is extremely pure, free from dirt, and can bring warmth to people at any time.The breeze brushed his blond hair as if living in symbiosis with the white birds kissing him.

"Yamada Machiichi, I want to be with you," Noel said.

"Watch a wedding."
