Zuo Qing's attack came suddenly, but Gu Yue's reaction was so fast, he had already pressed Zuo Qing's wrist in an instant, pulled and twisted the knife in Zuo Qing's hand, and it fell in response.Zuo Qing was still about to draw the gun, but Gu Yue kicked the pistol away just as she pulled it out of the holster——

Zuo Qing took advantage of the situation and leaned back, smashed her elbow and punched, and the red alarm button was pressed!

The place where Zuo Ziming was located was of course the most heavily guarded.Just outside, the swarm has destroyed most of the defense facilities, but there are still remaining devices in the room!

The sound of machinery running came from above his head, Gu Yue was very familiar with this cold sound, it was the sound of automatic aiming.It is impossible to arrange live ammunition here, so as not to accidentally injure the chief or other important people, but only one anesthesia and electronic bomb inside can make ordinary people lose their ability to resist, and a symbiotic warrior like him can only withstand two or three rounds.

It's narrow here, and he doesn't have much room to dodge.Zuo Qing's expression was ferocious, and a fierce light flickered in the only remaining eye: "I didn't kill you back then! Now go to the grave for me!"

In less than three seconds, all the weapons were aimed at Gu Yue, and a frightening red light flickered above his head.

At the moment when the bullet was about to be discharged, a few dark green rays of light climbed up the wall, moving quickly and swiftly, and the sound of an explosion came!

For a moment, the whole solid room was shaking, falling ash and gravel in response, Zuo Qing was forced to stop punching Gu Yue, turned around and threw herself on Zuo Ziming's body to protect him.

It was the Zerg that followed Gu Yue all the time to protect him. Gu Yue looked as usual, and was not surprised by the timely arrival of the Zerg.Gu Jiurong is always such a reliable comrade in arms.

These dozens of poisonous baneers completely blew up the defense of the roof, rose-purple flashed in the smoke and dust, flying dragons screamed in groups, their anger had ignited all their animal nature, and they were about to tear the woman in front of them. !

Gu Jiurong, who was coming from far away, saw everything through the eyes of the swarm, and unprecedented rage surged through his body with the beating of his heart.The Mantis silently extended its scythe, making no secret of its desire to slice its enemies into pieces.

The huge parasite king above the star capital let out a dull roar, and its body descended with a black mist of parasites—it quickly reached a low enough height that Gu Jiurong jumped from a tall building and stepped on its back, It roared again, several pairs of huge wings suddenly opened and rose, and the city road flew past under it.

However, when the flying dragons were about to pounce on Zuo Qing, Gu Yue reached out to stop them.

Zuo Qing cut his hand just now, and now blood gushed out. When he reached out to wipe off the freshly stained ashes on the side of his face, a bright bloodstain was left behind, making his eyes even more gloomy.

He said softly: "Don't shoot, look at me. This is my duel."

On the other side, Zuo Qing finally lifted a piece of gravel that was pressing on her body. Regardless of the blood dripping from her forehead, she rushed forward again, roaring: "You are nothing but a bloody traitor for being with the swarm!"

This time she had enough time to pull out the lightsaber.

Gu Yue came prepared, and the moment she approached, he fired his gun.Zuo Qing's reaction was not slow. Seeing that he had deliberately turned sideways to protect her vitals when she drew the gun, the bullet that was originally heading for her head was blocked by a falling rock by chance, while the bullet that hit her heart pierced her left shoulder, causing blood to explode. .

She swung the sword, and the huge falling rock was cut in half by her swipe with all her strength, and another burst of hot light from the flying rubble brushed against Gu Yue's cheek—he leaned back slightly, relaxed Song then avoided Zuo Qing's attack.

Zuo Qing is an extremely powerful fighter, but there is still a big gap with Gu Yue.It's just that she has fallen into a semi-crazy state now, even though the blood is flowing all over her body, her face does not change, as if she can't feel the pain at all, she swings the sword and swings the sword again!

She couldn't see clearly the swarm of insects around her, couldn't see Gu Yue's face clearly, didn't realize that the ark had fallen, and couldn't realize that there would be no reinforcements coming no matter what.She just wanted to kill the person in front of her, so that she could understand this matter that had also haunted her for many years.

The madness that made her lose her manners made her look different from usual, and no one could connect her with that strict and indifferent general.With the mask removed, she is just an irrational beast in the desperate hysteria.

The lightsaber scorched the wall and scratched the metal. The room was rapidly becoming dilapidated. The sound of stepping on the gravel was endless. Every time the two of them exerted their strength, there was a rough rubbing sound under their feet. dust.

After dodging her attack easily again, Gu Yue said: "The person I want revenge is not you, he owes me the debt."

"If you want to kill him, you have to step over my corpse!" Sweat and blood glued Zuo Qing's black hair to her forehead, she panted a few times, her pupils dilated, filled with icy cold hatred.She spat on the ground: "I'm going to send you and your beast back to the grave! You're fucking embarrassing the Gu family! Who is your father? Gu Zhizhan?! The day he died fighting for the alliance I didn't expect his son to collude with the Zerg!"

She still wanted to say something, but found that there was no sound in her throat.

The feeling of suffocation was overwhelming, and she realized that she was strangled by Gu Yue.

The force was astonishingly strong, and the pinching became heavier until she saw spots of light in front of her eyes—the whole world was flickering, her heartbeat trembled like thunder in her ears, and the eyes of the man opposite her were like beasts, and it was the first time she really looked at her Showed a fierce light.

It was a light that made Zuo Qing shudder, even though she had experienced many battles and fought against the most ferocious beasts and empires, she had never seen such a look.

The lightsaber was snatched from Gu Yue's hand and kicked away the moment Gu Yue restrained her.

Zuo Qing kept struggling in the suffocation, but there was no hope of breaking free. In the chaos, she remembered what Zuo Ziming had said to her a long time ago: "A person like Gu Yue...is different from other commanders. We used to He studied at the military academy. From then on, his gaze at the sea of ​​stars is not like our eyes. We only have pure yearning or fear and caution for that place, but he is different."

"Later," Zuo Ziming continued, "after watching several battles he commanded, I suddenly realized that it was a look of looking at the future territory. So he is very similar to Shao Yufeng or the swarm, We are constantly thinking about how to explore and survive safely, and all he thinks about is how to conquer that world. What makes me even more envious is that he really has the ability to do it."

"This kind of person is terrible. Fortunately," Zuo Ziming smiled, "His principles constrained himself. Gu Yue is too kind."

Now in front of Zuo Qing, the beast tore apart the cage——

That one look made her tremble and tremble.

"...Gu Yue." Zuo Ziming's weak voice came from the hospital bed, and he still wanted to say something.

But in the next second, Gu Yue exerted all his force and knocked Zuo Qing to the ground!

Ordinary symbiotic fighters can pierce even thin steel plates with a blow with all their strength, not to mention the existence of a transplanted spine like Gu Yue.Those many days of lonely and painful struggle brought endless unwillingness and infinite strength to the new student.

The blood slowly spread under Zuo Qing's body, her fingers twitched a few times on the ground, and her eyes gradually became dizzy.At the last second before her consciousness completely drifted away, she still tried to look towards Zuo Ziming with her breath: "...Father, run away."

This was the first time she called Zuo Ziming that.

Gu Yue straightened up slowly, his white shirt was stained with ashes and blood, only the white flower on his chest was still flawless.

He took a few breaths and returned to normal. Looking at Zuo Ziming who was still on the hospital bed, he straightened his coat: "It's not dead, it's just a disability. Has she tried to kill me many times over the years?" He raised his head. Chin, "Don't worry, I'm not worried that killing her will have a bad effect, but because she has made a lot of contributions to the Ark."

Zuo Ziming coughed violently.Many of the devices that maintained his life were destroyed in the explosion of the Baneling just now.His face was pale, and he hesitated for a few seconds before he forced himself to speak: "...you are still the same as before."

"What's the matter?" Gu Yue walked towards him slowly.

"It's too kind." Zuo Ziming said, "People like you are doomed to suffer." He reluctantly stood up, stretched out his hand to reach for the cane beside the bed - Gu Yue watched his movements with cold eyes, and didn't stop him .

It took Zuo Ziming a long, long time to get out of bed.His wrists trembled, his legs were weak, and he couldn't even straighten his back. It took all his strength to slowly pull out the sharp blade from the cane.

The blade was shining brightly, shining dazzlingly under the light.

Gu Yue smiled: "If you suffer a loss, you will suffer a loss. Anyway, I have time and talent, so I can squander it as much as I want."

The calmness and confidence in these words seemed to finally hurt Zuo Ziming.His unchanging expression became distorted in an instant, as if he had returned to a long time ago, and he could only chase Gu Yue's light forever.

Why are people born different?

Why is it that some people are born with the grace of the whole world?

Now that Zuo Ziming was getting old, he clenched the blade in his hand and looked at Gu Yue: "...Come on. You and I have been waiting for this duel for too long." He tried his best to straighten his body, wanting to do the same thing as he did for many years. A qualified fighter can swing freely and swiftly.

Gu Yue also drew his sword and walked forward slowly.

One hit, two hits.

The crisp sound of blades colliding came, and no one wanted to admit defeat first.

The miracle did not happen to Zuo Ziming, although in this duel, his life seemed to be on fire suddenly, shining a dazzling light, which made his withered and old body burst out with undue agility and agility. strength.

But still too far away.

The person standing in front of him was in his prime, at his peak.He will continue to write that legend.

In the third blow, Zuo Ziming's long knife came out of his hand and stuck in the ground.There is a solid wall behind him.With a flick of Gu Yue's wrist, the blade was lightly attached to his neck.

One minute further, Zuo Ziming's life would end forever.

At this juncture, Zuo Ziming actually laughed, with a hoarse voice: "... so what? I still got the status and glory that you never dared to expect in your life. People will always remember my experiences and talents, and my great sacrifice now."

"I don't need other people's acknowledgment." Gu Yue said, "They just need to be afraid of my sharpness. There is already a person who is willing to fight side by side with me. As long as I have his eyes to follow, I will be omnipotent."

Outside the broken windows in the house, a huge object flew by, shattering all the glass.

Layers of dense shadows fell, Gu Jiurong stretched his bone wings and landed on the window sill accurately surrounded by parasites, and entered the room with a light leap.

Zuo Ziming turned his head slightly to see him, but showed an unprecedented expression of astonishment——

The first few seconds were utter disbelief, shock crawling across his old, hideous face.However, after a few seconds, he seemed to finally understand something, restrained his expression and said with a smile: "So it's you... No wonder... Before, why didn't you recognize it from the photos before?"

Gu Jiurong stood beside Gu Yue with a cold expression, the black scales on the long tail turned out the sharpest edge, which could pierce the enemy's throat at any time.

"Don't put on such an expression." Zuo Ziming coughed weakly a few times.Gu Yue's blade moved forward a little, cutting blood on his skin, leaving bright red along the way.He was not afraid, and continued: "We drank together in the bar."

At that time, Gu Jiurong went back to the past and racked his brains in order to kill Zuo Ziming. At the beginning, he tried to kill Zuo Ziming all night in that tavern. Seeing how the young Zuo Ziming was in a state of desperation, he felt even more aggrieved.

"At that time," Zuo Ziming pointed at the table with trembling fingers, "I still kept the cigarettes you gave me, and wanted to return them to you when I saw you again one day. You never showed up after that."

Gu Jiurong didn't have much memory of the half-pack of cigarettes on the table, but only vaguely remembered the dim light in the bar at that time, and his rage and irritability when he was forced to suppress his killing intent.For Gu Jiurong, this is just a failed episode of going back to the past, he only remembers Gu Yue's eyes when he was young.

However, at this time, the monster-like old man smiled, and said to him with a relieved expression: "You were the only one who listened to me talking all night. Little brother, I always wanted to have another drink with you .”

"There will be no chance." Gu Jiurong said.

"I think so. I never thought that the person I've been looking for would be your identity, and the reunion would be like this." Zuo Ziming sighed and said to Gu Yue, "My career ended in such a tragic way. It’s not a reconciliation at the end. When I think that people like you will die of old age like me one day, I feel that death is not so dark, and it is the only thing that treats all beings equally.” He stretched out his hand tremblingly to reach the table half pack of cigarettes.

After many years, he finally took out a cigarette from the damaged packaging.Until this time, he still carried the lighter with him as he did when he was young. After taking it out of his pocket, he just tapped it lightly, and the orange-red light bloomed in the air, lighting the cigarette end.

Gu Yue looked at him with pity.

Zuo Ziming slowly sat down against the wall, ignored the worsening cough, and took a deep puff of cigarette: "...Why do you sympathize with me?"

"Because I have something that you never got in this life." Gu Yue said, "Whether it's a lover or the so-called eternal life."

Zuo Ziming's hands froze, and his calm expression became distorted and crazy in just a few seconds: "What did you say?! Say it again!!"

He wanted to stand up again, but was abruptly stopped by Gu Yue's blade: "Is it the Fallen Empire! Can you tell me if it was developed by the Fallen Empire?! What did they rely on to achieve it? Is anyone still getting it now? !! I have been searching for so many years why, why have I never heard of it?!"

"Why don't you talk! Don't look at me like that!" Zuo Ziming was already insane, and his withered body suddenly burst into surly anger, as if the vines that had been growing in the dark had finally been uprooted, completely exposing himself twisted, "Speak! I can still find them! I'm a hero and I don't deserve to die here!"

His hysteria lasted for two or three minutes, until a weak dizziness came over him, and he had to lean back against the wall, almost unconscious.

He took a few breaths, and managed to regain his sight after tens of seconds.

The cigarette had fallen to the ground, he groped to pick it up again, put it back to his mouth and took a sharp puff, the orange-red tail of the cigarette flickered, as if weeping.The cold reality pulled him back hard, and he said softly: "You can always get everything I want, without exception. I don't even have anyone who really drinks with me."

He exhaled a puff of smoke, and smiled at the entangled gray gas: "Gu Yue, you are so fucking annoying..."

This was the last sentence Zuo Ziming said in his long life.

The blade pierced his throat, ending his life cleanly, ending the glory and the vile past buried deep beneath it.
