One of the Excellent Fan Works: "Scattered Golden Roses" (Ye Wuwei)

One of the outstanding fans "Scattered Golden Rose" (Ye Wuwei)

It was a very dull dusk in the early twenty-fourth century.

Deep in the endless desert, a benchmark man with an industrial prosthetic appearance is wearing a camouflage net made of carbon fiber, staring at the edge of the sky.

The setting sun in the distance left a burst of blood-colored ripples. At the same time, just with the naked eye, you could see some white dots quickly crossing the sky, blooming with little rays of light from time to time.

As faint as starlight, also like shooting stars streaking across the night sky, gorgeous and bright...

No, it is not appropriate to call them meteors. Those white spots became more and more fiery, cutting through the sky like a meteor shower. Violent sonic booms and shock waves filled the entire frequency band in the area where the white spots were located, and even countless ancient and ancient The "curse" composed of obscure languages ​​is ravaging every corner of the Internet today.

All this is like in ancient myths and legends, where the gods sent down a flood to judge the sins of the world, and everything will be submerged under the flood. Only the prophets chosen by God can control the giant ship called the Ark and lead all living beings through this disaster.

However, this benchmark person knows, many knights know, and many people know that those swarms of meteors are not the judgment of heaven, but go upstream, coming from people's disapproval of the apocalypse created by the tyrant who dominates the world. An unyielding and proud roar.

Because those white spots are extremely rare warriors who have broken through to the first level.

There is also the origin of martial arts, the founder of cyber martial arts.

"Is that...the hero Nonemu? He led the Earth heroes to attack the space elevator..."

Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, it is definitely a major event that attracts the attention of the world.

Although this benchmark person had never experienced those vigorous battles, he could still guess what was going on at the moment. He quickly tore off the camouflage cloth of the nearby vehicle, revealing many extremely twisted and arrogant antennas.

Although the communication channel was also messy and full of noise, but now, he quickly woke up, and a dream-like opportunity was placed in front of this benchmark person——

"Ahem, can everyone hear the sound? The 'Babbitt's Story Channel' has started broadcasting urgently!"

He was naturally the broadcaster, Babbitt, who had traveled side by side with the Nonemu hero for several days.

"Dear new friends and old friends, are you surprised that the show is temporarily launched now?"

At this moment, he was nervously adjusting various channel signals, and even his prosthetic hands could not help but tremble slightly.

This is the quiet and profound depths of the desert, a corner that no government lackey can explore.

Broadcaster Babbitt is broadcasting on all channels at full power like never before.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The King of Fire who guards the earth and moon is no longer able to suppress the online world. The eyes of the world are focused on the battle near the space elevator. Therefore, the online world at this time is unimpeded and can allow Everyone spoke freely.

"...So, in this emergency broadcast, I want to tell such a story. It is a behind-the-scenes creation of my previous broadcast. Audiences who have never heard of it can download such a magnetic link..."

As the program aired, Babbitt's originally nervous mind gradually settled into his rhythm. If he hadn't thought about what kind of story he wanted to tell just now, now he has.

"Please listen carefully, this story goes like this:..."

[Once upon a time, probably a few hundred years ago, there was such a collectively imagined collective called "France"]

Babbitt entered the state, recalled the past when he walked side by side with the hero, buried the most precious "seed" he gave him in the soil in the broadcast channel, and began to water and fertilize it.

[A young soldier fell seriously ill before going to the battlefield and had to be sent back to his country. His commander wanted to take advantage of this convenience and entrust him to take his eight-year-old daughter back to France and give it to the commander's sister. Raise...]

On the distant shores of Jayhawk City, several fully cyborgs were fighting in the sewers. They were all gangsters.

The alloy long stick was vibrating, the bullets were roaring, and with a burst of sparks, the benchmark man holding the alloy long stick became the last survivor.

But at this time, he was also hit by a bullet that penetrated his spine and penetrated the battery pack. He was lying on the ground and his life was not long.

Just as he was roaring silently, regretting and crying, he suddenly stopped.

He heard the radio.

[The chief lost his wife very early and had to take his daughter with him. But that battle might be very dangerous. This was the first time the girl left her father, and she was unhappy all the way]

[So the soldier tried his best to make the girl happy and told her all the stories he knew. Among them is the story of the "Golden Rose" - when the soldier was a child, he had a neighbor, an old lady, who had a golden rose... Oh, yes, a rose, it is something that looks like the crystallization of snowflakes...]

In Recycle Bin Town, it's the end of the day's work.

The workers loaded up the copper candies harvested today and walked towards the settlement. While they were discussing whether they should inject a few milliliters of ethanol tonight, their conversation was suddenly interrupted by a sound of surprise.

They heard the radio.

[...No matter how poor the old lady was, she refused to sell the Golden Rose. It is said that her lover gave it to her many years ago. It is said that those who own the Golden Rose will always be happy. The story ends with the old lady getting acquainted with the rich painter son again and living together. 】

Babbitt stroked the virtual strings and played a dim tune.

[The war was over, and the soldier became a cleaner, destitute. One day many years later, the soldier met the grown-up girl. The girl quarreled with her lover and cried. The soldier helped the girl reconcile with her lover. When saying goodbye, the grown-up girl told the soldier that she still remembered the story of the golden rose. ]

["I don't think that playboy is the one who gave you the golden rose," the soldier thought. He came up with an idea to give the girl a golden rose. Although he couldn't give the girl happiness, a golden rose might be able to...]

In a nearby tunnel, the ranger was fighting with a good knight.

The phonon knife vibrated and emitted a terrifying shock wave. Large-caliber bullets accompanied by internal force attacks in the dark filled the surrounding space. The two fought and bit like beasts, and danced happily like two butterflies courting each other. For a moment, the two sides were deadlocked, retreated, and curled up in the dark, waiting for the next fatal tango.

A signal came, breaking the calm of all channels in the darkness.

Just then, they heard the broadcast.

[… He worked in the goldsmith's workshop, and brought the dust from the goldsmith's workshop back to his home every day, looking for a little bit of gold sand in the dust. He accumulated gold day after day, trying to save enough to make a golden rose. ]

[Many years later, he did it. But because he was old and frail, he was ashamed to walk in front of the girl of that year. The year he mustered up the courage to make the rose, he learned that the girl's family had left the country. The soldier was deprived of the motivation to live. 】

【When the soldier died of illness, only the goldsmith who made the rose came to visit him. The goldsmith received, received, the golden rose wrapped in an old blue headband...】

【...This story is called "Golden Rose". 】

A dance is over.

The gangster who survived the fight but died soon fell quietly in the darkness.

The workers in the recycling town who spent their days in boredom and heaviness had different thoughts at this moment.

After the battle between the rangers and the knights was interrupted, they each retreated silently with different thoughts and ended the battle.

【A great hero once told me, 'Collect gold sand in the dust, cast it into a rose, and then give it to love'...This is the meaning of the word "literature"】

【I hope that with such a story, in this complex and turbulent time, I can bring you, my listeners, a good night】

It was a very dull and boring late night in the early 24th century.

Radio guest Babbitt completed today's special broadcast.

Then he put on the camouflage cloth and drove into the darkness.

Maybe he used to worry about the gangsters, government officials, and dangers lurking in the night.

But now he is not worried that he will be swallowed by the darkness.

Because the night will always end.

The sky will always be bright.

One of the most popular fan works at present. From the perspective of the original author, it may lack creativity but wins in emotion. It's a pity that I expected the battle for the space elevator may not be so easy to observe, otherwise it can almost be regarded as a transition of the main work.
