Puppeteer [Interstellar]

"I'm sorry, Scar." Clarence said, "We drained you of all usefulness, turned you into a monster against your will, put you in danger countless times, and until now, I still want to use you."

Scar has excellent qualities as an elite soldier of the alliance, although from what Clarence said just now, he has clearly understood that he was cheated by the alliance government, and was confusedly dragged to join that so-called "Puppet Corps" "plan" and was transformed into a puppet by the human body.

But unexpectedly, Scar was not very angry. He only frowned slightly at what Clarence had said, and he was relieved quickly.

"Actually, I'm not as opposed to the Puppet Legion plan as you think."

Faced with Clarence's guilt, Scar said: "No matter what others say, I don't think that the soldiers and officers who were in the same period as me at that time did not resist this plan. On the contrary, they all agreed with it."

Scar's words startled Clarence slightly.

"The Star Alliance is the last home of mankind. We have been invaded and attacked by the Zerg for a long time. Whether it is the soldiers standing on the front line or the unarmed residents in the rear, they are already physically and mentally exhausted in such a cruel struggle."

"Everyone has a common wish, that is, to drive away the Zerg so that they can no longer harass human beings."

"As soldiers of the alliance, since we have already stepped onto the front line, it means that we all have the awareness to dedicate ourselves to the alliance and mankind. Therefore, even if the high-level leaders of the alliance want to carry out this 'Puppet Legion Project' openly, we will not object , as long as this plan can stop the bugs, we will try."

"At that time, if the top management of the alliance could publicize the 'Puppet Legion Project' and recruit elites to participate in this plan spontaneously instead of arresting unsuspecting soldiers and transforming them without authorization, the situation would be much better than it is now." Skawrinkled He raised his eyebrows and shook his head, "Because there will definitely be many soldiers who will sign up to participate in this plan."

"Veterans who have been to the front and can still come back alive know that the battle between the front and the Zerg was very tragic at that time. We were able to hold the frontier with corpses and mechas."

"Every day in the army, we have treated today as our last day. The lives of soldiers are worthless, and even we ourselves have long since stopped taking our own lives seriously."

"Since you don't even care about your life, then freedom and respect are not a problem. As long as you can win the war, be a murder weapon without self? That's simply too lucrative!"

Scar's words stunned Clarence for a long time, as if he didn't know what to say.

Scar didn't care about his thoughts. Scar said: "Soldiers who can step onto the battlefield are heroes who dare to sacrifice. You high-level officials have all underestimated the level of awareness of soldiers."

"However, it's a cowardly act to hand over the killing blade to these ignorant children." Scar said, rubbing the little Lyle in his arms.

Clarence is really speechless. For so many years, as one of the main leaders of the Golem Corps project, he has been working on the research of golems. He watched as the high-level leaders of the alliance continued to capture many soldiers for him to serve as soldiers. The experimental subject, he knew that these soldiers were not voluntary, he felt very guilty about this, but he had to carry on with this plan.

"I thought this would cause panic..." Clarence said, "Think about it, war machines like golems are actually monsters that fuse humans and insects. The high-level alliance has been doing human experiments. This behavior violates Human ethics, if the news is announced, what should the people think, you soldiers will also lose their loyalty to the alliance."

"Compared with the extinction of human beings, are these important?" Ska laughed, "A giant spaceship is about to hit a city with tens of millions of people, and you have the right to choose. You can sacrifice a dozen crew members on the spaceship to let them Detonate the spaceship to stop the impact, or watch the spaceship crash into the city and the tens of millions of people in the city will be wiped out? So the question is, which one do you choose?"

Clarence speaks incoherently: "I..."

Scar shook his head: "I am not embarrassing you, I know that you are just a researcher with the status of a senior military officer, and there are not many things you can decide."

"So stop apologizing, it's a foregone conclusion, I just want to know... are my parents, relatives and friends still there?"

"Yes." Lyle whispered in Scar's arms, "Your relatives and friends have long been sent to a safe place in the rear by me. I have sent someone to take care of them, but I haven't seen them with my own eyes."

"That's all right," Scar said. "That was the only thing I'd ever cared about before, but now..."

Scar looked down at the little Lyle in his arms, and couldn't help pinching his white and tender face: "When I became a puppet, did I stay with you all the time?"

Lyle nodded, his face flushed slightly: "Yeah, always with me..."

"Did I do anything to you?" Scar asked again.

Lyle's face became even redder, and he grabbed the skirt of Scar's chest with his small hands, and said in a low voice, "No...it's nothing."

"Don't lie to me." Scar teased him, "Although I'm not very clear, I roughly remember some things I did when I became a puppet."

As he said that, Scar brought his face closer to Lyle, and asked again: "Did I do anything to hurt you?"

"No..." Lyle's face was blushing, and he kept shaking his head, "You are very good to me and never hurt me."

"Really?" Scar seemed puzzled.

"Really not." Lyle was puzzled, "Why do you think you hurt me?"

"Because..." Scar seemed a little embarrassed, and smiled slightly, "I only remember some vague things. The memory of when I became a puppet is like a veil. I always feel that At that time, my mentality was to eat my 'master'."

"I want to eat you... Such a thought." Scar looked at Lyle with deep eyes, "You look soft, sweet, and super delicious."

"I can't eat it!" Lyle complained, but he roughly understood Scar's mentality at that time. He was angry and ashamed, and he felt inexplicably happy. He hugged Scar's back tightly and put his face Buried in Scar's chest.

Great, he remembers me.Lyle thought.

Scar did not change his appearance due to the restoration of the memories of the human period. He was as gentle as ever, and the depths of his eyes looking at Lyle seemed to be scattered with stardust, which was beautiful and moving.

Lyle likes him like this, loves him like this, and Lyle finally understands that no matter what Scar becomes, whether he is a human or a monster, he is still Scar, and is Lyle's favorite Scar.

Lyle wanted to cry a little bit, he tried his best to force back his tears, but still couldn't hold back completely, and left some wet marks on Scar's lapel.
