Chapter 744 The Last Words
Chapter 744 The Last Words
For the next few hours, the air at the Mars base seemed to freeze.
Meng Chuan sat in the command room, his fingertips repeatedly stroking the "Dragon Guardian General" badge.
The cool metallic touch couldn't suppress the restlessness in my heart.
This is both an entrustment and a responsibility.
Meng Chuan knew that this battle was a matter of life and death, but he could not back down.
The future of Earth's civilization depends on the next two days.
"Teacher, I've printed out your suicide note."
Yingdie suddenly walked in with a piece of white paper in her hand, her voice a few decibels lower than usual.
This blank sheet of paper contains a suicide note that Meng Chuan just handwritten; his handwriting is so strong it seems to penetrate the paper.
Meng Chuan asked Ying Die to print out a copy of what he had written.
But if something unexpected happens, the printed copy will be sent back to Earth.
The last sentence in Meng Chuan's suicide note, "If I do not return, I hope all is well and that the Dragon Kingdom is safe and sound," is particularly glaring.
Meng Chuan took the suicide note he had just written, folded it, and put it into his inner pocket.
He then picked up the tablet computer on the table:
"Have all the videos been recorded?"
"All right."
Yingdie nodded.
Besides leaving behind a suicide note, Meng Chuan also left behind several videos.
One part was for Liu Qian, and the other part was for my parents.
There's also a section dedicated to Blood Rakshasa and Chen Yiyi.
There is another section reserved for all of humanity.
In the video, Meng Chuan did not make any impassioned vows.
There was no heartwarming confession either.
He simply expressed his guilt towards Liu Qian and the others.
The video, presented to all of humanity, represents Meng Chuan's hopes for the future of humankind.
Meng Chuan hoped that he would be fortunate enough to achieve a great victory.
It is hoped that humanity can put aside past grievances and work together.
After all, if this happens once, there's a good chance it will happen again.
"Don't let her see it too soon."
Meng Chuan gently embraced Ying Die.
Meng Chuan didn't record a video for Ying Die, because she was right beside him.
Everything I wanted to say was contained in this embrace.
"I know that in order to eliminate the possibility of interception, all our videos are recorded offline and will only be sent when we make our final move."
Yingdie nodded, and she hugged Meng Chuan tightly.
Actually, if it were the old Yingdie, she wouldn't be afraid of death.
But today, Yingdie's body trembled slightly as she held Meng Chuan.
Because she is no longer the Yingdie she used to be.
She is also a mother of four.
For Meng Chuan, for the Earth, she had no complaints.
But I still can't quite let go of it.
"Don't worry, victory will surely be ours!"
Meng Chuan said firmly.
In fact, Meng Chuan was just comforting himself with these words.
If I had to say who I care about the most, it would be Meng Chuan.
He even considered calling Liu Qian more than once.
Even just hearing Liu Qian's voice.
But Meng Chuan ultimately restrained himself.
The observers are everywhere, and any anomaly could expose the plan.
Now that things have developed to this point, Meng Chuan has no way out, and neither does humanity.
He had no choice but to burn his bridges and forge ahead.
"I know, I believe you."
Yingdie raised her head, her eyes misty.
Meng Chuan kissed her fragrant lips tenderly.
That night, Meng Chuan and Ying Die loved each other deeply, passionately, and thoroughly.
Because they were all thinking that this was their last time making love.
……
The next morning, Meng Chuan and Ying Die arrived at the plaza of the underground castle.
As the researchers entered the underground castle one after another.
This was Meng Chuan's request; tomorrow is the final battle.
Today, everyone must take refuge in this underground castle.
It's time to let them know the whole truth.
They may have known about the observer's existence all along.
But little did they know that Meng Chuan was planning a decisive battle with the Observer.
When Meng Chuan and Ying Die arrived, everyone's faces showed fear and unease.
It seems that Zhan Yi has already explained the situation to them.
"You should all know the situation by now. I'm sorry to tell you the truth so late."
Meng Chuan stood in the square.
There were over a hundred people present, most of whom were members of the Green Gang, except for Lin Zhou and Wei Ping.
No one spoke; everyone was looking at Meng Chuan.
Meng Chuan said apologetically:
"I know it's unfair to ask everyone to stay now."
Meng Chuan's gaze swept across everyone's faces:
"But if even one person escapes, the observers will become suspicious. In order to protect the flame of life on Earth, I have no choice but to... make this difficult for everyone."
As their leader, Meng Chuan brought them to Mars.
However, there was no absolute certainty that they could bring them back to Earth.
Meng Chuan felt truly guilty.
As soon as he finished speaking, a young team member suddenly raised his hand:
"Master, we are not wronged! It's our good fortune to be able to guard Mars with you!"
"Yes! We just recorded our last words too!"
Another teammate waved his phone; the screen displayed a photo of him and his family.
"The Green Gang's doctrine has always been to help the weak and punish the strong, and to strengthen the nation and ensure its peace. There is nothing greater than protecting the Earth; even if we die, it's worth it!"
"Indeed, to die for humanity is a worthy death. We will be forever recorded in the annals of human history, and that is our blessing."
"We are the first people to be able to fight aliens."
"Haha, if the third brother knew we did something so great, he'd be green with envy."
Once someone spoke up, one person after another chimed in, and the previous solemnity and fear vanished instantly.
Looking at the smiling faces, Meng Chuan suddenly felt a lump in his throat.
These people should be living peaceful lives on Earth.
But because of him, they have to risk their lives on this red planet.
"it is good."
Meng Chuan straightened his back, his voice filled with unprecedented determination:
"Then let's fight a mighty, epic battle together! No questions asked, even if it means death!!"
Prince Fu suddenly stood up, raised his arms, and shouted:
"The gang leader will prevail, the Green Gang will prevail, and humanity will prevail!"
With Prince Fu speaking, everyone present shouted:
"The gang leader will prevail, the Green Gang will prevail, and humanity will prevail!"
"The gang leader will prevail, the Green Gang will prevail, and humanity will prevail!"
Morale soared to its peak in an instant.
Meng Chuan looked at everyone with relief, and the gloom in his heart was instantly swept away.
Finally, Meng Chuan walked up to Lin Zhou, holding a hard drive containing the suicide note and videos.
"In the event of an explosion, the first priority is to send the contents back to Earth."
Meng Chuan patted him on the shoulder:
"Also, don't worry about us, you all stay here underground and guard this place."
Lin Zhou nodded vigorously, his eyes red-rimmed:
"Lin Zhou obeys."
But the next moment, Lin Zhou firmly said to Meng Chuan:
“Master, my grandfather and my father both came from the Green Gang. Although my name, Lin Zhou, is not in the Green Gang’s family tree, I have always considered myself a member of the Green Gang.”
As Lin Zhou spoke, he turned to look at Wei Ping beside him:
"Wei Ping and I were childhood sweethearts. Although we went our separate ways later, we truly loved each other."
Lin Zhou took Wei Ping's hand as he spoke:
"Regardless of tomorrow's outcome, Lin Zhou earnestly requests the troupe leader to grant us a marriage."
As he spoke, Lin Zhou pulled Wei Ping and knelt heavily in front of Meng Chuan.
