Chapter 502 Glory ……Blue Star. The Spring Festival is coming, but this year's Spring Festival is not very festive. The disaster at Christmas is still fresh in our minds, and it has only been a month, which is far from enough for some victims to recover from their grief. However, even so, in order to ease the pain caused by the disaster, Hongya District attached great importance to this year's Spring Festival. Most of the originally planned Spring Festival-related arrangements were overturned and restarted. It’s not about simplifying, but about increasing the intensity. There are no particularly good excuses for other administrative districts recently, so we just come to Hongya District to celebrate the Spring Festival. The global Spring Festival Gala may be unprecedentedly grand and may even take several days to hold. It is very necessary to appease the people during this period of time. Now is different from the past. The miraculous lifting of the blockade has caused social order to become chaotic, and the parade gods are watching closely. If we no longer carry out such large-scale cultural activities, chaos will ferment over time and it will be difficult to remedy the situation. At that time, it will be very easy for parades and the like to take advantage of the situation, and illegal activities will increase sharply. The relatively intact big cities are all decorated with lights and are bustling with activity. But on the other hand, the senior officials of Blue Star all looked solemn. In a deserted area in Hongya District, the military forces of all parties were on high alert, and the world's armed forces were aimed at the crystal pillar that stood out in this vast wasteland.
At the front-line command center, Xiuman and Lin Jinghong are also here. "Today is the Spring Festival. Have you called your family? There must be no signal in this crappy place." Xiuman chewed candy beans, sat lazily in the only boss chair in the venue - which he brought himself - and asked Lin Jinghong next to him. "I passed it before coming here this morning." Lin Jinghong looked straight ahead. "Where is everyone else?" Xiuman turned around and asked the soldiers around him. "We asked them to talk to their families on the phone before they came here," an officer replied. "If it's over, will everyone have time to go back home and celebrate the Spring Festival?" Xiuman asked. Some soldiers couldn't help laughing, but they quickly suppressed their laughter without laughing out loud. The officer laughed and said, "There's a lot of work to do afterwards, so we can't take a day off right away." "Then let's work hard for future holidays." Xiuman shrugged and said. Silence spread. Although the words were originally meant to be light-hearted, they made everyone tense up and straighten their backs. yes…… For a future "vacation". …… Mixed dream world, Andemierye. This most glorious city in the current dream world is now deserted. Since the sanctuary is to be used as a connection point, it stands to reason that civilians cannot be allowed to live here. After deciding on the plan, Andemirye began to evacuate ordinary people. Everyone had many reluctances, but the people basically did not express much. Before leaving, the banners and flags they waved did not express dissatisfaction, but encouragement to those who stayed and held on. Next, the Wandering God will invade the Blue Star through Andemiye, and the Anti-Miracle will eventually extend its claws from the star orbit again.
As the most powerful city in the mixed dream world, Andemiye stands here as a barrier between the two worlds. Why can the people of Andemiye Sanctuary become the greatest "Saint Mother" in the chaotic dream world? They will now bet their homes and even countless lives to tell the answer to this chaotic "dream". The rest of the Mixed Dream Realm coalition forces did not enter Andemiye directly. They still have doubts, and even many forces are reluctant to open the passage between the two worlds again so that the people of Blue Star can travel freely again. They are just forced to do so. Fortunately, in order to avoid interfering with the actions of the sanctuary, the coalition forces only serve as a layer of protection, and their main responsibility is to deal with some wandering gods, which is a trivial matter for this large coalition army. Basically, they would watch this battle from the sidelines, and some even hoped that the Sanctuary and Blue Star would end up losing to the Anti-Miracle. Looking at the prosperous city in the distance, ambition ignited in their hearts. The people in the sanctuary naturally know this, but those who are willing to stand up will not care about the mentality of these petty people. …… “Grandpa Edwards, are you really not leaving?” Aoife and Edwards stood in the square of Sanctuary Town, looking at the bell tower in the distance. "I first came into contact with this city's miracle system when I was thirteen years old. At that time, I was following my teacher... and it took a total of eighty-five years to update it to its current level. The first thirty-five years were spent following predecessors and improving myself, and the next fifty years were spent by me as the chief designer. There are still many areas that can be improved. I regard it as a work of art, but it is not a work of art. It is a practical tool. It can only show its most dazzling brilliance when it is needed." Edwards listed them all. "You have already loaded the next key miracle project into Andemiye's miracle system." Orphee looked at the city miracle system surrounded by strange colors in the sky. "Haha, I'll be the last engineering operator and debugger left here. I want to be the closest to witness its most beautiful moment blooming for the world." Edwards touched his beard, walked forward, and took out his suitcase by the fountain in the center of the square. Inside were the props he often used to perform puppet shows for children here. The puppets, the strings, the puppet-sized accordion, and that funny mask. He laid them out one by one, turned his back to Aofei and said, "Aofei, you should go and say hello to Lady Kashira. She complained to me before that you didn't go to see her these days." Aofei was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Then I'll go over, Grandpa..." "I want to perform one last time," Edwards said. Aoife exhaled, whispered a quiet goodbye, and walked toward the clock tower. Edwards, without a mask, picked up the puppet and began his final performance by the fountain facing the empty square. The bell tower had naturally been cleared out, and many of the people who had come here for recuperation and treatment, because most of their problems were related to confused minds and wandering spirits, chose to join this operation and make contributions with their sick bodies. Aoife took the familiar elevator to the top of the clock tower and walked into a familiar room. The ball of light sitting leisurely in the rocking chair was a little dim. When Aoife came in, he suddenly seemed like a light bulb that was fully charged, and the shaking of the chair became bigger, which looked somewhat funny and cute. "Oh~, little Aoife is finally willing to come see me at this time?" "Lord Kashira." Aoife looked at the ball of light in front of her, "The patients down there have all left, and the clock tower doesn't need you to be in charge anymore, so why don't you go with everyone else?" "I was just about to go with 'everyone'." Kashira's words once again left Aoi speechless.
"It's been a long time." Kashira said kindly and with emotion, "Everyone has left. If it weren't for this place, I would really be lonely." The "everyone" she mentioned refers to... "Ophie, why don't you come see Grandma?" "I've been a little shaken lately," Aoife said frankly, "I don't know if I should come." "You've done everything you can, so of course you should come." "I'm far from doing enough." Aoife lowered her eyes and said, "I saw a person who was more dazzling than me. His light was cold, but it could still illuminate the darkness and illuminate many people. And I'm far from doing that well. Compared to you, compared to that person, the gap is really too far." "Then you yourself have no light?" "..." "Aoife, I have talked to you many times, but you, who seem gentle but stubborn, never seem to listen." Kashira said gently. Hearing this, Aoife spoke subconsciously. "'It doesn't matter how big or small the light is, whoever has it, shines.'" And Kashira also repeated it, the two spoke in unison, their voices overlapped, and the seal on Orphee's eyes suddenly disappeared. She opened her eyes, and they were as beautiful and bright as the golden sun. "I..." And these beautiful eyes, which had been sealed since childhood and opened again after many years, were filled with tears. "Ophim, you who have your eyes closed, you 'see' more dazzling things." Aoife sobbed softly, "Yeah." "Then go, take my light with you..." The moment Orphee opened his eyes, the light ball had dimmed a lot. Unlike the previous joke, it was really dim and on the verge of going out. "You are the true Saint of Aurora, the miracle-maker of the modern era of 'light'. Please continue to shine this light for me." "Grandma, you..." "As for me, I will wait here for my travel companion on this last leg of the journey." (End of this chapter)
