Chapter 1154 Paradise and Home
Chapter 1154 Paradise and Home
"A new day?"
Dorothy asked the people in front of her earnestly, "Even if you don't know what you will encounter tomorrow?"
The smiles on people's faces faded a little.
“Actually, I’m still a little scared.”
"But being afraid won't solve the problem. Life is already a mess, how can it get any worse?"
"We are just a bunch of small people. Compared with those big people standing in the clouds, we are not only ants on the ground, but also ants crawling in the ravines. I don't believe that the situation can get worse. Can these ravines suddenly split open and swallow me... Oh no!"
As soon as the man finished speaking, he found that the world had cracked open precisely under his feet, just as he had wished.
The crowd was in chaos in an instant, and people around rushed to grab the companion who had fallen and pulled him out of the crack.
"Oh my god, this land eats people!"
The unfortunate fellow, still frightened, commented.
"Don't be afraid!" Qi Yan actively demonstrated his knowledge reserves, "This land only eats white hairs. Once I jump in and sacrifice myself, everyone will be safe!"
The moment the words fell, Qi Yan smoothly completed the jump and entered the seam.
"Hey?! Don't!"
A group of people had just rescued their companions when they fell into a new round of chaos.
By the time everyone finally pulled Qi Yan out of the crack, they were all sweating from exhaustion.
In order to prevent Qi Yan from continuing to cause trouble, Dorothy quickly shouted at the crack:
"Disappear!"
The cracks in the grassland closed up instantly.
"Dorothy, you can do even this?"
"That's amazing, worthy of Dorothy!"
Dorothy was immediately surrounded by adoring praises.
Dorothy smiled reluctantly and brought the subject back on track:
"What I just asked you is why you are looking forward to an unknown tomorrow and looking forward to going to an unknown place.
Since you find life here very happy, why don't you just build your own home here?"
"Because this is not our home." Everyone answered very straightforwardly.
The person who accidentally created the crack said with lingering fear: "And this place feels very strange. It won't appear again next time... Ugh!"
He didn't even have time to finish his words before someone next to him covered his mouth.
Dorothy twisted her fingers together in confusion. Even though she was ready to give up this experiment, she couldn't help but ask:
“But is such a perfect paradise really not worth any nostalgia?”
"Dorothy, you are right, this is a perfect paradise." The Liberi girl put her hands on her hips, "I think I will never forget such a beautiful place for the rest of my life, but as I said, this is not our home.
Our home is in Colombia and I can’t wait to go back and share this amazing experience with other friends.”
Dorothy: "..."
She finally understood a little.
This is the paradise she created for everyone.
But this is not home.
Dreams are destined to end with awakening.
"Can I find you a home, everybody?" asked Dorothy.
People smiled again.
"Why do we need to look for our home? It is right there. We just need to build it."
Qi Yan brushed off the dirt on his body, picked up the feathers scattered on the ground, and walked slowly to Dorothy.
He patted Dorothy on the shoulder and whispered:
"It's time to let them go home, Dorothy, and wake everyone up from this false dream."
……
……
"This energy circuit is now broken, but if it hadn't failed, it would have been..."
Ferdinand spoke very quickly, almost cramming his knowledge into White-Faced Owl, hoping that she could absorb all his understanding of this instrument that controlled the world.
The white-faced owl listened very carefully, and Hemer was also trying to listen at the side.
Not far away, Saria gathered the defense personnel in the experimental base and arranged for them to prepare to meet the enemy.
During this process, Saria kept an eye on Horhaiya, who had absolute advantage in the sky but seemed to be waiting for something.
Noticing that Saria kept looking at him, Holhaiya's thick tail kept sweeping happily.
She had never really planned to do anything to Saria and the others.
Even the attempts being made by the White-Faced Owl were under her control.
She wouldn't let the White-Faced Owl succeed.
After all, play is play, don't joke with a girl from Rhode Island.
Holhaiya just hoped that he could attract Qi Yan's attention and a little interest, rather than anger. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing if Qi Yan slapped him into a feathered serpent before he could even start a conversation.
While waiting in boredom, Holhaiya noticed that two more groups of people were approaching from the outskirts of the team below him.
Mary brought her colleagues to the rear of Seria and the Defense Department team.
"Once the battle begins, everyone's task is to work hard to cooperate with Ms. Vaifan's command. Do you hear me?"
"Receive... received."
Mary sighed inwardly as she listened to her colleagues' panicked responses.
In fact, wasn't she feeling panic in her heart?
The monster that keeps destroying buildings deep in the experimental base doesn't look like it can be defeated by human power.
But he and others have been dragged into this, and there is no use being afraid. If he wants to grasp the slim hope of survival, he must force himself to face everything and seize the fleeting possibilities in the crisis.
It was at this moment that Mary noticed a group of pioneers approaching.
A familiar figure attracted her attention.
"He is actually here?"
The moment Mary saw Sonny, she almost suspected that she was still in the illusion.
Sonny also noticed Mary, and his already hesitant steps froze on the spot, and he almost subconsciously wanted to turn around and escape.
Mary saw all his reactions.
A light hum with some complicated emotions came from Mary's nose:
"Oh, this is you. It seems this is not an illusion."
I don't know if Sonny heard the snort, but he stopped trying to escape, but he still didn't dare to look up into Mary's eyes.
"Sonny, what's going on?"
One of the pioneers noticed Sonny's expression.
"I...saw someone I know," Sonny said dryly, "I have some...well, I made a mistake with that red-haired sheriff."
"Oh~"
A burst of mocking voices came from the pioneer team.
When a crisis strikes, everyone feels panic, and the more this happens, the more people need something to divert their attention.
"Hey, young man, I understand." A middle-aged pioneer patted Sonny on the shoulder, "The sheriff is really handsome, and it's normal for a guy like you to be impulsive, but looking at your posture...
She caught you in the act?"
Sonny: ?
"No, what are you talking about!" Sunny was numb, "It's not that kind of mistake, I...I did something to hurt her!"
The pioneers were stunned.
"Don't tell us, you just did it?"
"What on earth are you thinking about!"
Sonny was a little excited, and in order to explain, he subconsciously blurted out his past that he usually didn't dare to mention:
“Mary and I grew up together. When I was infected with oripathy, she and her family took me in during my most difficult period.
But I… In order to pay for the high insurance premium for infected people, I… I robbed her and forced her to hand over the family savings.”
The pioneers' raging gossip fire was instantly extinguished by a basin of cold water.
The pioneers who had originally gathered around him, led by Sonny, even subconsciously kept a distance from him.
Sonny lowered his head and clenched his fists.
He was not surprised by the pioneers' reaction. He knew very well how unforgivable the mistake he had made was. He also thought about how to make up for it, but in the end...
He just dared to choose to escape.
