Chapter 1410 May there be an afterlife
"After the deterioration of the Blue Revolution, Aros and others fled the Lagras star system and did not know what happened later. Valeria Apollo's father, Leon Apollo, died under the attack of the Supreme Council's hybrid warship, and the entire family fell apart in the war."
"Valeria is lucky. Through the evacuation passage arranged by Leon Apollo, she escaped with the people in the family to the Lunall star system. She was not affected by subsequent wars and was able to save her life."
"Later, the Dragon Words intervened in the war in the Lagras star system, ended the Blue Revolution with force, and implemented physical reforms nationwide. Because of the hindering reform, the old political forces were regarded as enemies by the Dragon Words and the Rebels, including the Duncan family, the Sunderland family, the Cook family, etc.."
"The Apollo family is also given special attention, but because Leon Apollo has died in the early stage of the Canglan Revolution, the Apollo family has a much worse influence than before. The Dragon Speaker and the Rebels did not invest too much energy in them, which gave them the opportunity to escape from the Asgoths."
"After all, it was the former powerful family of the Silver Eagle Corps. They had already prepared for the future and designed a way out. However, in this process, the tribe members found out that Valeria was pregnant. It was the father of the child, who was Roland Laksimon, deputy captain of the Dragoon Squad."
"Standing from the standpoint of the members of the Apollo family, if there had been no Dragoon squad igniting the fuse of the Blue Revolution, if Valeria had not been blinded by love and stood on the enemy's side at the critical moment, Leon Apollo would not have died in that war, and the Apollo family would not have fallen to the point of desolation today..."
"This discovery made the members of the Apollo family excited. If Valeria's mother had not tried her best to protect her, they would have punished her. Now that she is pregnant with the child of her enemy, they would not sit idly by any means."
"Everyone asked her to give up this child, including her mother. But Valeria didn't do that. She stubbornly wanted to leave this child under pressure and curses from the family. For this reason, she gave up her identity as a member of the Apollo family and gave up the opportunity to escape to the Asgoths..."
"I don't know what kind of mood she had about this child and her own experience at that time. In short, she did not leave with her tribe members in the end and chose to keep Roland Laximone's flesh and blood, because in her opinion, Roland had passed away, and all she could do was give birth to this child and allow his blood to continue. This is her love for him and her love for unborn children."
"Without the protection of the Apollo family, facing the chaotic national and social situation, how could a woman like her who had not had any experience in the lower class adapt to the lonely and helpless days? Besides, she still had an unborn child in her stomach. She suffered a lot and suffered a lot, and went to the north of the mainland, found the old nun who baptized her when she was a child, and lived near the monastery with the help of the other party, and waited for delivery with peace of mind."
"She finally doesn't have to worry, she doesn't have to wander around, and she doesn't have to try to avoid the pursuit and persecution of the descendants of the military government's powerful people by the rebels and mobs. She can sleep peacefully and take a hot bath. Unfortunately, this peaceful and peaceful time has not lasted for too long, because the time is up and the child is about to be born."
"It is said that the birth date of the child is the mother's goodbye day. For Valeria, it is still her last time in this world. Because of the hard work and physical and mental fatigue during the escape process, her body became very weak, and no matter how she replenished her later, she was powerless to make up for the rest of the world. She just held her spirit stubbornly and told herself that she would at least give birth to the child..."
Nova paused at this point and said in a tone full of sarcasm and emotion: "At least in terms of stubbornness, you are very similar to Valeria..."
Yeager did not respond to her sarcasm. Nova did not care and continued to tell the story: "The aftermath of the Blue Revolution has not yet dissipated, and the social situation is still turbulent. She dared not go to the hospital in the city for treatment, as she would be recognized, and would likely be persecuted, and even bring disaster to the child. She did not adopt the nuns' opinions and insisted on giving birth to the child."
"According to the nuns, she passed away with a smile..."
Nova retracted her gaze that fell on the tombstone, looked up at the cotton-like white clouds in the sky and said, "The nuns buried her not far from the monastery and sent her children to a welfare home with business connections to raise them. The old nuns would visit the little guy named Yeager from time to time until he grew up and could live independently."
"According to Valeria's last wish during her lifetime, they never told the child who his father was, who his mother was, where they came from, and what they did. She thought he could live so simply without carrying those suffocating burdens."
Nova's vision fell from the sky back to the ground, through the gaps between the trees, and saw the old buildings in the distance.
The broken cross stands peacefully under the rising sun, like a loyal watchman, protecting this pure land for a long time.
"The monastery has been moved to another place, and there are very few old nuns who know about it. Perhaps in a while, Valeria's story will completely disappear and be forgotten by the times."
"What Valeria didn't expect was that her lover did not die in that war. After 20 years, she returned to the Silver Eagle Group and met their flesh and blood..."
She stopped at this point and her eyes fell on Yeager's face.
"What is your mother who suffered so much suffering and torture to give birth to you? Is it to treat you with revenge? Is it to be an unfilial son? If she could foresee what will happen in the future, I wonder if she would regret giving birth to you so hard."
"Her love for Aros ended up becoming Aros' regret and regret... Are you fair to her doing this? Have you ever thought about how sad, regretful and troubled her if she knows her in the fountain?"
Nova is a person who doesn't talk much, and she looks very much like a veteran in this regard. However, standing in front of Valeria Apollo's tombstone, she said a lot in one breath.
As early as when she was telling Valeria's experience, Yeager's eyes burst into tears. At the end of the conversation, he finally couldn't bear it and fell to the ground. He looked at the tombstone in front of him and shed two lines of tears.
He did not experience the turmoil of the Blue Revolution, but it is not difficult to imagine how a woman who once lived a superior life would live without her family protection and be pursued by the mob in a dangerous situation, let alone when she was pregnant.
No matter how hard, tired or difficult it is, she never regrets it and never thought of giving up on him.
It is really not easy for him to come to this world.
How could he not be moved and grateful when facing such a good mother?
When he was young, he resented her. After knowing her father's identity, the resentment turned into indifference. However, the facts proved that she was not what she imagined. No one in this world loved him more than Valeria. The resentment that had accumulated over a long time, the pretentiousness that he thought was all gone at this moment.
He was wrong, he was outrageously wrong, and he was childish. The agent lady didn't want to beat him, even if he beat him ten times, he could not offset the guilt in his heart.
As Nova said, if Valeria knew that the two men and sons she loved in her life turned against each other, Izumiya would be so sad, sad, and regretful and troubled.
She gave birth to him was definitely not to let him choose the former between the country and his father, she gave birth to him was definitely not to let him live in the shadow of national hatred and family hatred... She gave birth to him because he was the crystallization of their love.
Nova walked up to him and threw a pda in his arms: "In the patriotic education and publicity you received, Roland Laximon is defined as a national sinner who colluded with the Supreme Council and caused trouble to the Silver Eagle Group. I wonder if you have thought seriously about it yourself. Are the words of politicians trustworthy? Is the content in the history books credible? If you still think that he is a terrorist with great sin after reading these things, I will leave immediately and ignore your affairs."
Yeagel lowered his head and looked at the PDA screen. He found a video was playing on it. It was a conversation between Tang Fang and Thomas Angkoru, which was about the actions of the Dragoons in the Blue Revolution and some details and backgrounds at that time.
After this video ended, the second video continued to play. It originated from the useful information extracted by the Tang side from the Red Queen database of the Atlas Space Station. It revealed the identity of the Meyer middleman, and the intermediary and the Dragon Speaker were suppressing old political forces and changing the various measures of the Silver Eagle Corps government system, including smearing the Dragon Cavalry team and guiding the operation of civil hatred and public opinion.
After the relevant information clips obtained by the Atlas Space Station ended, there was another video. It was the scene of the confrontation between the Tang side and the Fourth Councillor at the bridge of the Pure Land of the Pure Land. The two mentioned the conspiracy game between the Supreme Security Council and the Dragon-Wordians in the Silver Eagle Group.
The fourth and last videos are naturally the conversation between Aros in the nuclear space of the wandering planet with Lev Milonovic Bukharin, the second council of the Supreme Council.
Through these video clips, Yeager finally learned what Aros had done and what he has done now. In what era, he did those things and why he did those things.
He always believed that his father was a lackey of the Supreme Council... but this so-called "death" in his heart chose to die with the Second Council member at a critical moment.
He always thought that his father was an accomplice in hurting the Silver Eagle Group... But compared to a person like Mayar and Thomas, his father was just a tiny grain of sand and dust in the trend of the times.
He always believed that his approach was just and patriotic... But the facts proved that his patriotism was just a spiritual opium used by the rulers to brainwash.
He always believed that Tang Fang was the biggest messenger in the world, and would bring chaos and destruction wherever he went... But the facts proved that the man just revealed the darkness that existed in the world, tearing away the disguise of sin, and used his willfulness to "draw a sword to help" to penetrate those hidden rules that were invisible.
He refused to recognize such a father. He was deeply in love with the so-called "motherland". He regarded Captain Tang, who was talked about by the world, as a poison of arsenic.
Did he do it right? Now it seems... he was wrong from the beginning, and it was ridiculously wrong.
No matter what, tears could not be stopped falling on the pda screen, wetting the vicissitudes of face on it. Yeager raised his head and looked at Nova's face and said, "Why... why no one told me this?"
The information received today fundamentally subverts the long-standing cognition in his heart. Now he is like a child who is told that 1+1 does not equal 2, with his eyes full of confusion, grief and guilt.
Confusion comes from the subverted understanding of parents, grief is the miserable experience of mother, while guilt... comes from misunderstanding and hurting father.
As Nova said, Aros passed away with regret... This regret is not because of Tang Fang, not because of himself, but because of him - Roland Laximon's only bone and blood.
"Just like when you assassinate Tang Fang on the Fearless Commander-level Fortress, if someone tells you everything, would you believe it? Will you care?" Nova looked at him condescendingly and said in a questioning tone.
Yeager lowered his head. Yes, as Nova said, would he listen carefully to others' stories in a state of anger and hatred? At that time, he sacrificed his life and planned to pull Captain Tang to hell together.
If he hadn't received the news of his father's death a few days ago, the resentment accumulated over the years has been reduced a lot and a feeling of emptiness arises in his heart, would he calm down and listen to Nova's story?
If there were no video materials that portrayed Roland's manly outline with irrefutable facts, would he believe that his father was not a traitor, but a great hero who could be proud of him?
No... in the past, he would never accept these content sincerely.
Now he can accept it. He realizes his mistakes, but the price is his father's life.
He bit his lower lip hard, trying to suppress the emotion that hit his heart like a mountain torrent, and prevent it from bursting out.
Blood flowed along the teeth marks on the tip of his lips, and he couldn't help but beat his heart.
Nova sighed heavily. She had a very complicated emotion towards Aros. Respect, speechlessness, closeness, trust... These emotions are not heavy, just a little bit. But it was so many that she could not sit idly by and watch the veteran's unfulfilled wishes and chose to come here with Tang Fang on her back, and leaked the shocking and unacceptable information, and also pulled back the stubborn donkey Yeager.
