Abandoned Lover [Future]

The man in white bandaged Eugene's right arm and then untied him.The summer sun seeps in from the torture chamber. This is the perfect weather, making everything that happened just now seem like an unreal nightmare.

Eugene stood up and went outside.In front of his eyes, the aircraft that Igor was riding rose up from the ground, and he didn't know where it would go.

Eugene looked down at his elbow where there were still tiny pinholes, and walked out step by step.As the buildings behind him got farther and farther away, the frequency of his steps became faster and faster, until he started to gallop.When he stopped again, cracks had already appeared on his calm expression. At this time, his teeth were clenched tightly, and a straight vertical line protruded from the side of his face.

The veins at the temple throbbed painfully, and in the anger of Li Li, Eugene took out the terminal that Igor hadn't taken away from behind him.

"Transfer me to the general, transfer me to the general now!!" He roared towards his terminal.

Joshua, who picked up the call in an instant, only hesitated for a second before faithfully handing over his terminal.The two must be together at this time, and Eugene was able to hear the familiar female voice after a few seconds.

"Palmer." His teacher called his name.

"General, general..." The other party's voice was heard as usual, but his throat suddenly choked.Eugene wiped his face indiscriminately, and then clearly recounted the inside story that Igor had explained to him at the fastest speed.

"Stop them, General, please...don't let them go on like this..." He couldn't explain the despair and helplessness he felt at this moment—through this weightless terminal, he was fighting for those who had no hope for the future. Knowing nothing, tens of millions of people begged: "We can only rely on you, General, do something..."

There was an extremely short silence on the other end of the receiver, and then Eugene heard the voice of the female general pull away, and then whispered to the people around him: "...Have you written it all down, Rothschild?"

Joshua responded unwaveringly, "Yes, General."

Eugene's mind went blank for a moment.Unexpectedly, until now, Joshua, who knew nothing and was only a personal guard, would be involved in the flames of war and inheritance.The female general must have reached a point where no one can use her and she has no way out.But so what?Even so, she still didn't give up, she was still working hard.

Tears rolled down from Eugene's eyes without warning. He frowned, and in a low voice, he said his last request with difficulty: "Please fight to the end for the people of the alliance, General."

... This is the only hope he can believe in.

His teacher has been in the army for more than [-] years, he is the pride of the mining area and the common people, and he is the spear of the noble and unyielding alliance.However, she is also the only one standing alone on the top of the giant mountain, holding on to the weakest fire of justice, struggling against the intertwined corruption and bureaucracy.

Igor abandoned her because of her so-called incompetence and weakness.But it shouldn't be like this, Eugene thought.The smaller the spark, the more you should turn it into a firewood that feeds on it, believe in it, support it, and let it shine brightly in the long dark night, even if in the end it just burns out into a flame without any residue of soot.

Because it is good.Because it is the last bit of light that the weak without lights can rely on.

"Thank you, Palmer." Knowles' voice was calm and mellow, but it rang loudly in Eugene's ears. "I will do my best."

The sound of the manned ship leaving the ground came one after another from the terminal, and Eugene immediately heard the familiar engine sound of the giant ship "Valkyrie".

... His teacher is bound to go out at this time.

"Palmer, I only have one last request left."

"anything."

"If the people of the Alliance need you, are you still willing to fight for them?"

Knowles, like him, removed the accent from "the Union" and put it on "the people."

"...I will."

Such a sentence precedes thinking and has already blurted out.

Blood burst through the chest, and the body of the deceased fell to the ground.Eugene's black clothes were infiltrated with a red background. Across the wide, seemingly endless galaxy, he once again offered his loyalty to his former superior and the people and land he swore to defend.

……

Nearly an hour later.

With a distance of more than ten meters, Eugene and Xiao, who were like blood men, looked at each other.The biochemical man's hands were all red, but there was no body of Setsu.

Eugene was on his way to the military port, but he didn't expect to bump into Xiao on the way.If Xiao is not here, does this mean that the massacre in the festival city has come to an end?

—How many people died?In other words, how many people survived?

A heavy sense of powerlessness crawled up from the soles of his feet.He staggered towards Xiao, his tears and blood mixed together, turning his face into a scribbled painting.Xiao also walked towards him step by step, and it was only when he got closer that Eugene realized that Xiao's condition didn't look normal.

There was no expression on the biochemical man's face, his lips were tightly closed, as if someone was choking his throat.

Something is wrong with the portrait, it wants to speak, but it can't.

When Eugene tried to clarify Xiao's abnormality, the other's pale hands trembled and lifted his face slowly.The soft long hair covered the side of Eugene's face, and it was Xiao who lowered his head to his forehead.At this time, Xiao seemed to be enduring severe pain. Under the sound of unsteady breathing, Eugene heard the sound of teeth grinding against each other behind the other's tightly closed lips.

Trembling violently, the cyborg's lips approached Eugene's almost with difficulty——Xiao kissed his lover's face back and forth, almost stiffly, without closing his eyes for a moment.

Almost obstinately, he looked at his human carefully, even though such actions seemed to deepen his pain bit by bit, even though the scene in front of him seemed to strip away all his imagination about the future one by one.

"Yu, Jin..."

After a few slow breaths, the name with only two syllables was squeezed out from the clenched teeth, but the voice had already lost its shape.

"I killed him...I will kill him..."

Such sentences were mixed with choking, and finally broke through the defense line in the biochemical man's throat.The hand holding Eugene's face moved away tremblingly, slowly returned to Xiao's side, and then tightly clenched into fists.

——With the two people's positions as the center of the circle, a soundless and invisible shock wave spread out in an instant, and all the affected electronic devices within the range experienced dead failures, and gradually recovered after a few seconds.However, looking at the two of them face to face at this time, they were unaware of this change.

Xiao endured the terrible violent desire in his body, but the suppressed impulse was swallowing him from the inside.Memories of the past floated up fragmentedly, and the city engulfed in flames almost overlapped with where he was standing now.When he almost gave up his reason, he heard Eugene say, "What happened?"

... This is so familiar to him, such a gentle voice.

The biochemical man knelt down in front of Eugene like a collapsed statue.After a long while, he stretched out his hand, and gently and affectionately took Eugene's hand.

In Eugene's surprised eyes, tears slipped silently and quickly from the biochemical man's face, and Xiao showed an extremely stiff and heartbreaking smile.

"The gatekeeper... I'll kill him, okay? Eugene. I'll kill him." Xiao murmured, holding Eugene's hand obsessively, turning his head, and kissing repeatedly on his lips : "Not now, I'm by your side now. I'm not going anywhere, I'm by your side..."

Xiao Mingming still frowned, but tried to show a gentle expression in front of his lover.Tears ran from his left eye to his right, across his chiseled cheeks, and into Eugene's fingers and palms.

"...you listened to my terminal?" Eugene finally vaguely understood the origin of Xiao's weirdness, "You heard about the 'bad blood'?"

Shaw didn't speak.He just looked at Eugene, and then the pale skin around his neck turned red little by little.He held his breath subconsciously, because such an action would also make him feel pain.

——something he got with great difficulty.The only thing he owns.What he cherishes the most is something more important than life.

—His beloved, beloved Eugene.

During the time when there was no way to export, he imagined how to rely on his human beings to survive the insufficient 60 years in the future.However, fate mockingly shortened this time limit to a few thousandths of a few days, which made him extremely angry and wanted to erase everything he saw before him.

He no longer remembered how he kept his composure, and after quietly carrying Setsu's body onto the ship, he followed Eugene's coordinates step by step to find him.However, the anger in his heart turned into meaningless tears after meeting Eugene—a huge emotion engulfed him, turning him into a person he didn't even know.

His chest and stomach became so fragile and soft, it could almost be pierced by Eugene's eyes looking at him.He wanted to look at his human beings, kiss each other's lips, and didn't want to waste their remaining time on hatred, but his unwillingness didn't let him go at all.

--It's too short.time is too short.If only he could give half of his life, or even all of it.But he can't do anything, he's just a useless, non-living machine.

The biochemical man lost all his composure and self-restraint, fell heavily from the altar like a god, and was stained with the ugliest dust in the world.Xiao knelt in front of Eugene, after staring for a long time without blinking, finally slowly, slowly, raised his hands to cover his eyes.

—Don't leave me alone.

He raised his head and rolled his Adam's apple, as if swallowing all the pain a person could taste in his life.

……

"...I won't die."

After a brief silence, Xiao heard Eugene say this.In the current context, that was such a cruel and terrifying verb, it almost made him shrink back.

"I'm not lying." Eugene's voice was nasal, and even in such a situation, he showed some faint smiles.Xiao moved his hands covering his eyes, and Eugene was kneeling in front of him, his eyes were a little red, but there was really a smile on his lips.

"Inheritance is void to me."

Eugene said.

"This is the ability I got when I made a wish."

... Xiao's eyes suddenly opened slightly, and a few teardrops adorned his light golden eyelashes.

"Didn't I say that? The ability I got is specially designed to deal with this kind of situation." Eugene's voice was low, and there was obvious fatigue in his smile, as well as some overdue, wordless bitterness.

……

——"I hope number 6 can live happily and safely."

This is the wish he made 12 years ago.Metal eyes opened and closed in front of him, only to be told by Harbinger researchers that his wish had failed.

The legacy of measuring ability and price couldn't detect the changes in him, and he returned to No. 6's side in a daze, ignorant of what really happened.

"Innocent Inheritance" actually fulfilled his wish, and also gave him the ability to guarantee the safety of No. 6-all the influence of the inheritance on himself will automatically become invalid, and he can also let others The effects of his legacy are temporarily removed or reverted; as such, the legacy of measuring ability has no effect on him at all.

And he grasped this ability without knowing it, and watched No. 6 die in front of his eyes.It was in retirement, when Harbinger tried and failed to wipe his memory with the Legacy "Craniotomer," that he finally began to have a half-knowledge of his abilities.

...What a cruel and ridiculous thing this is.

If he had known earlier, No. 6 might not have died.If he let No. 6 go back to the body with self-healing ability at that time, he might be holding another person's hand at this time, standing far away, boarding the ship to the front line.

It's just that this kind of imagination has no meaning.The ability that seemed to mock him back then finally kept him by the side of the one he loved.It is not the blood of the dying person that flows upstream, but the tears that the biochemical man shed for him.

"Remember to keep it a secret for me. If it is exposed, I will probably be imprisoned in the laboratory there in the next life." Eugene said this, his voice was a little hoarse, and he reached out to wipe away the tears on Xiao's face.

Xiao was still stunned.For a moment, he even thought it was a white lie Eugene told to explain him away.However, the atmosphere on Eugene's body could not be faked. After a few seconds, he finally let go of the tense strength all over his body, allowing the light to gradually return to those gray-blue eyes.

He showed a smile like the rest of his life after a catastrophe.

The sharp corners of the eyes became soft after slightly narrowing, and the only remaining tears fell from here to the ground.In an instant, the words of cursing fate were swallowed back, and turned into thanks for God's meager mercy.Pain and paranoia finally crawled back into the biochemical man's chest, and Eugene's familiar lover returned to him.

"...Sorry for worrying you."

Eugene stretched out his hand and embraced Xiao tightly.

Heartbeat to heartbeat, body temperature ironing body temperature.Eugene supported Xiao's weight, as if he was supporting the whole world from falling.At this second when the end is approaching, they only have each other, but they still have each other.

What will the future hold?Eugene didn't know.He felt the outline of Xiao's protruding shoulders under his palm.For a certain moment, he wanted to really return to his nest like a tired bird, so he took Xiao's hand and walked to a distant place that had not been contaminated by the flames of war.However, the oath he just gave still echoed in his ears, reminding him over and over again that standing behind him was the undead soul of an old man who could not rest in peace, while standing in front of him was the innocent corpse.

So he knew that he would never be able to cover his eyes and go silently into that good night.

……

"What's Palmer's code name?"

Someone yelled loudly: "Mom. Because he always takes care of us all."

The 19-year-old Eugene shrugged nonchalantly: "I have no problem, as long as you can call out when you are on a mission."

No. 6's voice came in earnestly and abruptly from the side: "I don't want to call you that. That's weird."

"Objection is invalid!" "My dear mother, bake me a cherry pie!" "Please, I want pocket money!"

—that was their first year in military school.He and his team members of the gatekeepers were all present, sitting in the spacious classroom, laughing and deciding for each other the code names to be engraved on the military plates.This kind of play ended with the appearance of the female general. She appeared from behind the crowd, and answered naturally: "I advise you to think carefully, it is better to be called The Guardian than Mom."

Eugene turned to look at her.

"It can mean that you are the guardian of this group of fools, or it can mean that you are the guardian of the team." Patricia Knowles, who is in her 30s, explained this, and Eugene quickly accepted the proposal.

...It was when he walked out of the classroom with the female general that the teacher walking in front of him mentioned it to him again: "In the village where I was born and raised, this used to be my nickname."

His teacher didn't look back, and Eugene raised his eyebrows unexpectedly looking at her back.

"As the only guard, you must be the first protection," the female general said word by word, "and the last line of defense."

……

On September 719th, 9 of the Alliance Calendar, the Scarlet Union Sageron carried out an indiscriminate massacre of civilians and alliance tourists participating in the festival in its main city and capital star on the day of the Fire Spirit Festival.It is estimated that the number of victims killed in this violence ranged from 15 to 70 million.Among them, only the city of Xiatas leaked the images of the violence that day, and recorded the survivors' testimony.

On September 9, the Scarlet Alliance Sageron launched a blitzkrieg against the Star Alliance Veldoang.The Apostle Star, which is located on the first line of redundant defense of the Alliance, bears the brunt, and the border garrison was penetrated by the enemy before all of them were assembled.The governor of Neighboring Mingcheng star and his personal guards and volunteers rush to the aid of Weicheng star. The fleet was ambushed midway, and the governor himself and all the sergeants on board died.

On the same day, New Athens, the capital city of Acropolis, and Erga, the capital city of Hades, fell.After landing, the "Blood Lion" of the Sageron special mecha team used its mutated body to massacre the city, and then used ground weapons against the two cities.Taken together, the number of civilian deaths in the alliance alone exceeded 250 million.

On September 9, Sagrand crossed the mining area and moved from the alliance's redundant defense line to the center.Its main fleet attacked the life support system and atmospheric stabilization system of the planets in the mine star area along the way, causing the attacked planets to be out of order, and small-scale riots broke out in many places.

The defense of the central area of ​​the alliance faced the main fleet of Sagrand directly, and was defeated, and the remaining troops withdrew to the central area. The "Blood Lion" mecha team landed in many places again, and various planetary organizations counterattacked. Among them, the defense battles in many places failed, and the number of casualties rose to more than 600 million.

On September 9, Patricia Knowles, the five-star general of the alliance, took the "Valkyrie" in person, and brought over a thousand ships under her command to rush to the rescue from the center.The fleet confronted Sageron's main fleet in the Valkyrie sector, and wiped out nearly 18% of Sageron's main fleet in this battle.Sagrand's main ship "Hyperion" was shot down by the "Valkyrie", and the lieutenant general Hedex died on the spot.

After the death of the main general, Sagrand's remnant forces retreated, and General Knowles did not allow the pursuit.While rushing to rescue the nearest attacked planet, the "Valkyrie" on which General Knowles was riding was attacked by a group of "Blood Lion" mechas after assembly.Because the team had maneuverability and artillery fire evasion rate far exceeding the accuracy of the alliance's weapons, the "Valkyrie" was forcibly boarded and occupied by the team, and [-]% of the sergeants on board were immediately slaughtered by Sagrand.Survivors were either captured or sent back to report back to the Central.

The life and death of the female general is unknown, and her whereabouts are unknown.

The remaining military forces of the alliance intended to organize a counterattack independently, but was ordered by the five-star general Robben Tiev to retreat to the center.

According to the special wartime law, the black box left by the female general in Rhino Bay was later made public.According to the wish of the female general, the government affairs under her name will be managed by the captain of the personal guard, Joshua Rothschild, and the military power will be handed over to the former captain of the fourth gatekeeper squadron, Sigmund Arning, who will be awarded the rank of lieutenant general .

……

——You must be the first protection and the last line of defense.

He never knew the mood when his mentor spoke that day, until today.

The author has something to say:

... I really had a lot of fun writing the big scene and revealing the secret.

The "The" in TheGuardian refers specifically, so Eugene is really the last guard of the alliance.

Eugene's real name is SigmundArning. The semantics of Sigmund is "Protioh meat ghvictory", guarded by victory.
