Chapter 31 The Last Journey of the Prince of Crows ([-])

Everyone moved forward in silence again until dusk came.

They passed through block after block, and after a little refueling, the half-track drove the ordinary people here again.At this time, Sevita noticed that Yuli was staring at him, and Prince Crows rolled his eyes and asked angrily:

"Little girl, speak quickly!"

"Ah...hehehe..." Yuli touched her helmet with a smirk, she patted the oil barrel under her buttocks, and said:

"Uncle, don't you need to add fuel to your armor?"

"...No," Sevtar explained amusedly: "My armor is powered by a dedicated energy source, and I don't need this inefficient fuel."

"Nuclear power, right?" Kanazawa said, "I've heard that humans used this kind of near-infinite power to fight before."

"...Probably, but it should be more efficient than you imagined. After all, I'm just a soldier, not a technical sergeant, and I don't understand those things." Sevita shrugged, and the dim light covered the soldier's body. When they got up, long shadows fell over the halftrack and all of them.

"But speaking of it, we have people who are responsible for this kind of maintenance work, called Mechanicus... a group of idiots who once worshiped false emperors and betrayed them, and have no feelings..." Sai Weita smiled, "Just Like us."

"Betrayal... Is Brother Sevita a rebel?" Jin Ze asked, he lit a cigarette, the smoke slowly drifted away, making Yuli frown, the blonde girl slapped her palm again, Moved to the outside, showing a disgusted expression.

"Rebels?" Savita laughed loudly, "We are not such a righteous existence. In the final analysis, we are just a group of scum who try to resist the status quo."

"I can't see it," Kanazawa looked at Sevita's face, "I can't see it at all... But why are you rebelling against that emperor?"

"Just do what you want."

"That's too casual!"

Yuli and Kanazawa laughed, and even Qianhu who was driving the car also laughed. Everyone thought that Sevita was joking... Prince Crows didn't explain any more about this, and even laughed along with them up.

On the way, Sevita talked with Kanazawa about his previous life. The latter told the prince of crows that he would climb to a high place, take pictures with a camera, draw a map, and put it in his small bag.

"If the map is lost, I will probably die," the man wearing glasses said indifferently, his face was neither sad nor happy, as if more emotions had disappeared at a certain point in time.

"..." Sevita didn't speak, he walked forward in silence.

When the last corner of the sunset was still left, they reached the bottom of the tower, where there was still an elevator that could be used, but the Terminator armor of Sevita was too heavy, so they could only climb to the top in two groups.

Sevita went up first, and his elevator successfully reached the top of the tower. There was nothing on it, only a corridor leading to the deeper part of the city. There were tall street lamps erected on the left and right sides of the corridor. Even after nightfall, the Prince of Crows was not sure if these things would light up again.

Looking out from here, even the space warriors can only see nearly endless gray buildings and steel bridges of different heights, and at the end of their eyes is a dark mist, like a giant monster. The mouth is devouring it all.

The whole world is decaying, Savita thought, but no matter how harsh the environment is, human beings still want to live, even if they find an extremely far-fetched reason for themselves to live... Maybe, he himself is also like this:

The Legion has been destroyed, the rebellion will eventually be quelled, and he can't see his future.

Ha... the first company commander of the Night Lords Legion... I can't even keep such a useful title. What should the new one be called?Prince of Crows?Or Princess Crows?

It's disgusting and...

Hey.

"..."

Suddenly, Sevita seemed to hear something, like a girl's exclamation, he frowned, and looked down——

One of the elevator's cables snapped!

The entire elevator fell to one side, and there, he could even see half of a human body in a dark coat dangling outside... But fortunately, Jin Ze, who almost slipped out, was caught by two The girl was rescued and returned.

Sevita walked to the cable machine of the elevator, reached out and grabbed the remaining cable, and began to pull the entire elevator up!

Half a minute later, the elevator hooked the lock smoothly and reached the top of the tower smoothly. The half-track car was slowly driven out by Qianhu who was still shaking. Yuli was not much better, and she walked out of the elevator staggeringly , Leaning on Sevita's body for a while before he recovered.

Jinze, he...his small satchel was gone, and the map inside had also gone somewhere, leaving only a scrap of paper in his hand.

Sevita looked at the expression on Jinze's face, the man seemed to be crying, but he couldn't cry... This reminded him of a certain existence, obviously so powerful, but like a child who lost something In addition to losing his temper, he will only cry, even if it is only in his heart.

"Tsk..." Sevita stretched out a finger, tapped Jinze's head a little harder, and said in a disgusted tone after seeing the latter recovering as if he had just woken up from a dream:

"The look on his face is so weak."

"Sorry, I made you laugh," Jinze let out a long sigh. He wrapped his coat, forced a smile, and said:

"Then let's divide up here..."

"Give me what's in your hand," Sevita said impatiently, frowning, pointing to the last fragment that Kanazawa didn't want to throw away between his fingers.

"Ah... Here you go, I don't need it anymore... What happened just now... It's too bad... Sorry... I just..."

Jin Ze spoke intermittently, and then, like the two girls, his eyes gradually widened.

It was night now, and those street lights were turned on under the energy supply of the remaining automatic energy system, illuminating the surrounding environment, dispelling the darkness, and making the black and blue armor on Sevita's body sparkle. , like putting on a silver crown and cloak.

It actually made Prince Crows look like a hero.

Sevita held a small part of the map in the palms of both hands, and then the three of them heard the wind.

The wind blows from the bottom of the tower and roars towards the top of the tower. In the rustling sound of the wind, the sound of the paper being blown by the airflow is equally harsh. Parts of dozens of torn maps are engulfed by the strong wind. They come from the city It was found in the corner of the city and sent here.

After hovering over everyone's heads for a while, pieces of paper, large and small, were slowly assembled together and then slowly fell... These maps have been found and restored, and they are lying quietly in the palm of Sevita .

Sevita threw the stack of maps into the arms of the sluggish Kanazawa. He himself endured the pain after driving the psionic energy, and after breaking a bite, he revealed his white teeth soaked in blood, and said with a smile:

"Sometimes good things happen."

"..."

Jin Ze didn't hold back, he hugged the map and sat slumped on the ground, tears streaming down his face.

Chapter 32 The Last Journey of the Prince of Crows ([-])

Kanazawa left with his map and camera, but before leaving, he took a photo of Sevita, Chito and Yuri together, and said that he would always remember what happened in these two days... …

To be honest, although Sevita is not optimistic about Kanazawa's survival rate, his future has changed, at least there will be no radioactive blood left on the ground.

"Oh, oh, ah, hahaha..." Yuli sat on the back seat of the half-track, singing a silly song, and Sevita walked beside them, looking around:

Here is an empty flat land, concrete and masonry constitute the hard earth, the steel beams protruding from the ground are twisted and pierced into the sky, reminding Sevita of the kind of people who put salted fish on pies that they have seen before Horrible... food, no, that's not food anymore.

Sevita, who was thinking wildly, suddenly heard some noises. He looked towards the sky, where a small black dot was slowly flying by. After a while, the Prince of Crows saw that it was a simple flying machine.

"Stop," Sevita said to Qianhu, who nodded, and just stepped on the brakes, but the whole car shook. After shaking a few times, a puff of black smoke came out from the exhaust port of the halftrack , completely motionless.

"Ah...it's broken."

Qianhu picked up the helmet and buckled it on her head, squatted to the side of the car, looked at the car body with a sad face, but Yuli, who was originally sitting in the car body, jumped up, put on the helmet crookedly, picked up the rifle and rushed to the car. Sai Weita's side pointed to the front and said:

"Uncle, there is someone lying in front of you..."

In the open space far ahead, a woman in a white coat fell to the ground, holding a remote controller in her hand. After lying on the ground for a while, the woman got up, looked at the aircraft in the sky, and murmured language.

"Let's go, let's go take a look," Sevita said, and then he left Qianhu who was still worrying about how to repair the half-track vehicle, and brought Yuli to ask.

"Woman, what's your name?"

The woman who was called trembled, and while she was still sitting on the ground, she turned her head and looked up, and saw clearly the tall existence that covered her body with a shadow. The woman wearing glasses opened her mouth, and she was so frightened that she couldn't say anything. not come out.

"I don't want to repeat it a second time," Sevtar said deadpan.

"Ishii...you can call me Ishii," the woman swallowed. She took off her glasses and rubbed them with the corner of her clothes before putting them on again. The fear on his face was much less, and after he calmed down, he said:

"Scared, scared me to death... Are you a robot?"

"No, I'm not," Sevita rolled his eyes. He didn't understand why people here like to ask him if he is a robot, but the most important question right now is not this... The Prince of Crows pointed to the flying robot in the sky. Airplane, asked:

"You did that?"

"Yes," Ishii took out a monocular and observed the aircraft carefully. After a while, she nodded and said with a hint of joy:

"The flight attitude is very stable."

After finishing speaking, she squatted down again, took out a piece of paper that had been used many times and still had traces of pencil writing on it, and wrote and drew on it.

"It is very stable, but the battery life is not enough, and the steering device is not good enough." Sevita looked up at the aircraft and made his own evaluation. Then, he bent down and looked at Ishii, and said:

"It seems that you are almost a mechanical priest... I hope you can repair that car that is about to be scrapped," Saiweita pointed to the half-track car that was emitting black smoke.

Ishii was taken aback when she heard the words, she stood up and walked towards the half-tracked vehicle, and dragged Qianhu out from the bottom of the vehicle, whose face was covered in black smoke (Woo! Who are you?!), After carefully looking at the body of the vehicle, , said to Sevita who came over:

"Although the parts are old, I can fix it... On the contrary, I hope you can do me a favor."

"Equivalent exchange?" Sevita shrugged, "I can accept... how about the two of you?"

Yuli and Qianhu didn't hear Sevita's words, the blonde girl was laughing at the black-haired girl, who was chasing the former around with a helmet, only a burst of laughter dissipated under the empty sky.

Savita: ...

Ishii was amused by this scene. After watching the two children tenderly for a while, she turned her head and said to Sevita:

"Go to my place, there's electricity, water, and food."

Sevita sighed, stepped forward quickly, tapped the helmets of the two girls with his fingers a few times, and said angrily:

"Come on, let's go somewhere else."

"The halftrack..."

"Ishii will fix it for us."

"Ishii is that woman just now... Ah, it hurts! Qian-chan, you dare to sneak up on me! I advise you to take care of yourself... Ah! Again?!"

Picking up the two girls who were still fighting, Sevita let out a few dissatisfied grunts from his nasal cavity. The dissatisfaction was more towards himself. He never thought that he would have a day to take care of the little girl ... He's good at things like making kids stop crying and adults crying.

Sevita, who was carrying two girls, followed behind Ishii. They came to a console. After Ishii operated it a few times, the lifting platform under his feet shook and sank slowly.After going down the elevator platform, there is a somewhat dim environment. The cavity below is filled with various aircraft and parts, and a smell of decay permeates it.

"This is like an old air force base. It has water, electricity, and many mechanical parts. I have been living here... There is a food production facility nearby, but it is no longer moving."

Ishii led the three of them forward, and after they passed through the piles of parts and the dim corridor, she turned on the light, which illuminated the simple plane in the underground warehouse.

"That's it. In return, I'll fix that half-track," Ishii said with a hint of emotion. Then, she squatted down, carefully looked at the black ash on Qianhu's face, and said with a smile:

"I have hot water here, you can take a bath..." She said, looking at Sevita again, and asked:

"Does this gentleman need it too?"

"I don't need it," Savita rejected her offer, "just give me some water and food."

"Ok."

After Qianhu and Yuli cheered and went to take a bath, Sevita stood in front of the crude plane, after a little thought, said to Ishii who was cooking sweet potatoes:

"This plane of yours... will disintegrate after takeoff."

"……Eh?"

Chapter 33 The Last Journey of the Prince of Crows ([-])

Savita pointed to the joints and beams of the aircraft, and explained:

"Not strong enough, maybe you can't see it with your eyesight, but to my eyes, there has been deformation there, the steel has become weak after such a long time, and also, your welding method is not good enough, the weld seam Too many and not evenly distributed, all said and done, even if I am not a technical sergeant, I can say that this aircraft will disintegrate during the flight, especially when..."

Prince Crows put his eyes on Shi Jing who was slightly astonished, and continued:

"When bearing the weight of a human being."

"Is that so..." Ishii slumped on the seat after being stunned, and after leaning back on the chair, she let out a long sigh, raised her head and looked at the iron-gray ceiling above through the lens of the glasses, and murmured:

"Looks like I need to redesign this thing."

"...Why do you want to build this thing?" Sevita asked, pointing to the surroundings, and said:

"Clean water, plenty of electricity, and enough food...why do you want to get on this plane?"

"This... I think about it... there is a record..." Ishii looked at the aircraft blueprints hanging on the wall, and she stretched out her hand to rub it, her tone was slightly low, "I took the plane drawings scattered all over the base. Everything is collected, from the earliest models made by man to those beyond our comprehension."

"Also, there is not enough time. After missing this warm period, I am afraid that there will be no chance to fly again."

"You haven't answered my question yet, these are just your thoughts," Sai Weita said indifferently, his eyes flicked across the drawings, and took those things into his mind, "What I want to know is not this."

Ishii was stunned when he heard his words, and after a while he replied slowly:

"Probably because I feel hopeless."

"despair?"

"I can't go anywhere, and I can only die slowly with this city. This ending is too desperate."

"Even if you go to other places, the consequences you will face are very likely to be the same. The entire planet is dying. War and population have devoured the last resources here. If there is no external force to intervene, then..."

Sevita didn't continue talking. Seeing him like this, Ishii smiled softly and said:
