Chapter 591 Leaving
"Boom!" Just as the two were having their final conversation, a loud bang suddenly came from the top of the Holy Cathedral of Light.
After careful repair, the beautiful dome covered with murals was suddenly smashed into a big hole by an uninvited guest.
Large pieces of bricks fell to the ground, bringing up bursts of smoke and dust.
A graceful figure jumped out of the billowing smoke.
"What do you mean?" After the smoke gradually dissipated, a magnetic voice, as if it had magic, struck in the direction of Gondor.
Wherever the sound waves went, the falling smoke, dust and gravel made way for them.
"This is my decision." Gondor, whose body had begun to turn into spots of light, said as he looked at the woman whose true age was unclear under the priest's robe.
That is the saint who descended from the sky.
She drew her sword, as if she wanted to interrupt the ceremony.
"Is that woman whose face you can't even remember, worthy of you leaving me and everyone behind and leaving this world alone?!" She roared like an abandoned woman.
"I've been acting for eighty years and I'm tired."
The woman who deceived his feelings back then died at the end of her life more than ten years ago.
Since then, Gondor has actually lost the motivation to continue acting.
The next few days are just about choosing a way to end the show.
…
As he spoke, the old pope's feet turned into light and disappeared, and he could only float like a ghost.
"Venice, come here." Gondor waved in the direction of the saint, with a rare hint of old age in his movements.
The strangely blindfolded saint walked along a straight line with perfect accuracy.
"Put it on." The old pope took off the religious crown inlaid with four colors of red, yellow, blue and green gems, and put it on Venis' long golden hair like Tuogu.
Originally, his intended successor was Christine, and she had been the one he focused on cultivating, but in the end, he betrayed the Light Holy Cult due to disagreements with his ideas.
The good old Gondor had no choice but to start training a successor again, and Venis came into his sight.
…
Facing the crown forced on her head, she did not resist, she just lowered her head and tried her best to hide the expression on her face.
…
"Funny." After the old pope completed the handover, he turned to face Bai Mo behind him.
"Fifteen minutes left."
"In fifteen minutes, the Moon Fortress will officially leave the Earth-Moon orbit."
"Are there still fifteen minutes? Do the math, I still have about fifteen minutes." The old man said slowly, not caring about his life or death at all.
…
Gondor raised his head, looked through many obstacles, and looked at the blue planet.
Since the white land woke up from the transformation more than half a year ago, the darkness shrouding the surface of the earth has long dissipated. From the perspective of the moon, it is still as beautiful as it was ten years ago.
It's a pity that things have changed, and the human federation that "escaped" to the moon can only look at the ball and sigh.
More than half of the body under the old Pope's robe has disappeared, but as a strong man standing at the top of the sixth level, even if more than half of his body is lost, he can still easily maintain his life.
He was sitting in the Kingdom of God, looking around at the Holy See where he had devoted his whole life, whether his feelings were true or false.
Seeing the busy guards cleaning up the situation in an orderly manner under the command of Venis, and seeing the people in the city nervously making the final preparations before derailing under the arrangements of the Guardian Army, he felt that he could already let go. .
…
Bai Mo said nothing from beginning to end.
In the past thirty years, old acquaintances from the past have left one after another, and I have been trapped in the endless cycle of Taoism.
However, he has almost completely lost the emotion of sadness for spring and autumn, and it is difficult for him to feel any emotion about this situation.
…
"Thank you." Gondor left his last words before they all turned into points of light.
If Bai Mo hadn't been willing to express his support, maybe he would have worn a disguise and continued to live like a dummy.
He knew that Bai Mo had not actually become darker, and certainly had not gotten better, but was simply losing the ability to express emotions.
…
"five!"
"Four!"
"three!"
"two!"
"one!"
"Zero! Launch!"
Just when the last few starlight points fell into the magic circle, as if to say goodbye to the departing old pope, the countdown at the super launch site on the back of the moon also came to an end.
The super engine unit, which took the entire Federation's efforts and took ten years to build, was officially activated at this moment.
In order to have enough power to smoothly push this extremely heavy lunar fortress, a full third of the lunar surface is occupied by a network of psychic fusion engines.
Thanks to the sun star spirit that rashly traveled through, the Human Federation was able to use an unusually astonishing amount of helium-3 fuel on the moon in a more efficient way to support the entire interstellar expedition plan.
…
At the same moment as the moon "awakened", the power of the earth also "awakened", and a psychic storm invisible to the naked eye gradually formed outside the earth's atmosphere.
According to the plan, the white ink on the earth will temporarily reduce the gravitational force between the earth and the moon to reduce the difficulty of the moon escaping from the effective range of the earth's gravity and reduce the load on the engine.
"The space on the surface of the earth has begun to distort in the psychic storm, and the earth's gravitational pull on us has been reduced by ten percent." In the fortress command center, all the congressmen have sent clones to pay close attention to the reports from all aspects.
"The latest report shows that gravity has been reduced by fifteen percent!"
"...Twenty percent."
"Thirty percent!"
"..."
The declining speed of the numbers shocked them. You must know that it is the gravitational force between celestial bodies!
"The impact output on the earth will eventually be roughly equal to the contribution of the engine network."
"What happened in these years..."
They all basically understood and deduced the seventh level, but they had never felt that there would be such a big gap.
Even in the "information" provided by Bai Mo, the so-called "immortal" has never been described equivalent to this kind of power.
…
"I'm finally leaving." People who pursued freedom and no longer wanted to live in a certain shadow breathed a sigh of relief.
"I will definitely come back in my lifetime!" The man who was forced to leave his hometown and set foot on the vast sea of stars was unwilling to give up his anger and nowhere to release it.
"Maybe I won't be able to see her until I die." There are also couples who have different choices and have been separated from each other ever since.
The people on the moon do not need to concentrate on dealing with the departure of the fortress. At this moment, they are all thinking.
The "I" stays and the "not-I" leaves.
The white land's one-size-fits-all approach has completely severed the originally closely connected human society.
No matter which side you choose, you will have to face saying goodbye to quite a few acquaintances.
