The doctor reached out his hand and carefully wiped the dust off its face, "You can't just do as you please, understand?"
"What were those guys thinking? I told you from the beginning that letting a dog hold voting rights was unreliable!" The elder's expression was dark as he glared angrily, "It's too late to change the situation now. I demand a forced replacement of the proxy!"
Amid the many gazes, the president hung his head in disappointment.
His ears drooped as he let out two whimpers.
"Wait, wait."
He hurriedly leaned forward, pressing his nose against the button on the table to speak, "Me! Me! Me! Speak!"
"Group! Defense! Must!"
He raised his head to look at everyone, his paws pressing as he pleaded, "Problem, president, good, employees, together, solve! Employees, good, very good, president, believe!"
"Everyone, believe, president, please, believe!"
...
The elder fell silent for a moment, and as he was about to speak, he caught himself upon looking into those piercingly clear eyes that were incomparable to humans, sighing wordlessly, "Do you really understand the consequences? This isn't the responsibility you should be bearing."
The president's eyes lit up as if smiling, his paw pressing on the button, "President, love, humans! Love! Love! Love! Love!"
"President, loves, humans, more than anything!"
"More than, self, love!"
"Please humans, do not harm humans!"
In his flurry and urgency, he searched for the button, pressing down, and earnestly begged,
"—President, will, definitely, protect humans!"
In the silence, no one else spoke.
Two hundred years later, Sky Rail Transportation once again submitted an application to T5 Alliance.
Special operating permission granted!
Time, three minutes!
...
The scene of world creation varied among many, but the appearance of world destruction seemed strikingly similar.
Just like many years ago.
The earth was pitch black, the sky burnt red, and in between floated a rain of ash.
Like a residue of death, the lingering hate of the departed...
"It's so lifelike."
Ji Jue gazed upon the world before him and suddenly felt that what Jian Yuan said wasn't entirely without reason.
Maybe, he had never truly escaped the hell of his past.
Maybe, this was just the delusion of a dying child, an evanescent dream, bizarre and preposterous.
The disaster of more than a decade ago had brought destruction and flames too swiftly, tearing everything apart.
Half buried in the past, sleeping in the eternal silence.
While the other half hastily moved forward, growing more and more distant.
Now witnessing all this again, he suddenly wondered if some part of the ash drifting in the wind originated from his former self?
Despite the horrors of hell, why were so many people eager to create even more hells?
"Why delve into Zhi Fu, Jian Yuan?"
Ji Jue turned back, curiously asking, "You were never tainted by sin, and you certainly never cared for the so-called Great Calamity."
At the moment he started the engine and revealed his soul, Ji Jue saw it all too clearly.
Inside Jian Yuan's body coexisted the traces of both Superior and the Great Calamity, yet none could dominate the core. Just as he equally despised the Sin and the Superior in his words.
He treated everything as material, merely for use, without any intention of taking sides.
But why was he so obsessed with Destruction?
"Is it really that important? I don't care."
Jian Yuan's fingers orchestrated, effortlessly manipulating the Sky Rail he created, maintaining the stability of Spring City, and asked indifferently, "Why can't I immerse in deceit?
And why, separating good and evil?"
"Incompetent fools always draw lines to deceive themselves, to calmly face their own insignificance and helplessness, like the pettiness of the Association.
Yet some regard these excuses and lies as the ultimate truth, like you.
But boundaries are meant to be crossed, the so-called rules never existed in the first place!
Remaining complacent, refusing to advance, blindfolding your eyes pretending nothing happened, covering your ears as if not hearing, that self-deception is what you call a craftsman?"
He glanced back as if fed up with the absurd dreams of fools, "Superior be it, or Great Calamity, both are the rationale of the world.
Since the principle lies there, I will seek it.
Now, I ask you, why is there anything in this world that I cannot comprehend!?"
Ji Jue responded indifferently, "Even if it spreads endless poison?"
In that instant, Jian Yuan couldn't hold back any longer and laughed out loud.
"What do I have to do with an overwhelming flood?"
"No, it has to do with you."
Ji Jue shook his head, earnestly telling him, "When a mountain collapses, and a dike bursts, amidst the millions of snowflakes, maybe an innocent few will land before you.
In the endless flood, couldn't there be a drop of vengeance that falls upon your head?"
For example, at this moment—
In an instant, a violent roar erupted from beneath Jian Yuan's feet.
A blaze shot up to the sky.
Compared to this, the silver gleam in Ji Jue's eyes seemed so faint.
Just a trace, yet as it moved, it cut through like a hot knife through wax, with a Withering force, destroying all the blockades Jian Yuan had set upon him.
Withering!
Exhausting the last vestige of energy left by the edge of Transformation within him, Ji Jue returned to freedom.
Unhesitatingly, he lunged forward!
He had been comforting himself that the situation hadn't reached its worst, that things weren't so bad. To be patient, to hold steady, to wait for an opportunity
But he couldn't wait any longer.
