Luo You sat in the dark room, only the tiny white candle in front of him emitted a faint orange light, his rosy eyes stared straight at the flames, reflecting the only light in the darkness.

How many people have I killed in the past two years? I can’t count them, really can’t count them.

There may be hundreds of evolvers in the Cube Squad, and what about those wilderness refugees who are unwilling to surrender? Thousands?

Luo You clearly remembered that it was the cold winter of eight years of collapse. He led the soldiers in the military region to pursue a wilderness refugee. They had no evildoers, no criminal records, and no threats. They were just some poor people who were displaced.

However, in the purge order issued at the beginning of the year, refugees who are unwilling to return to the city and must travel through the wilderness, even if they are not cube teams, are still regarded as a potential threat and will be wiped out if they refuse to surrender.

In order to survive, the refugee worked very hard, really desperately, fleeing day and night. When the supplies were destroyed, they ate the rotten corpses of animals in the forest. When the kettle was empty, they were filled with raw water of unknown levels of radiation pollution. When the companions could not run, they carried it on their backs. Even if someone's legs were shot, two or three people would carry it together without leaving any one behind.

During the long-distance pursuit, their number was getting fewer and fewer. In order to protect their companions, the soldiers committed suicide back against the pursuit troops and all died under the red umbrella.

In order to give the team a glimmer of hope, their captain voluntarily tied up a bomb and rushed to Luo You to explode, delaying it for about three seconds.

There was also an old couple whose old arms could not stop Luo You from moving forward, so they hugged his legs, bit his shoes with their teeth, and were both shot to death.

When Luo You finally caught up with the team, the other party was basically dead. He would not forget that the young girl in the team shed clear tears and asked him hoarsely why he wanted to kill him. They just didn't want to leave the wilderness and live the way they wanted.

Luo You couldn't answer, and didn't know how to answer. When the girl died under his gun, he suddenly remembered Ling.

If it weren't for the mission that collapsed for 7 years and encountered Ling, if it weren't for the mission targeting the survivor base, Ling might still be a wilderness refugee, and might not be willing to enter a city with high walls, and might be included in the list of purges, or maybe... he would have died at Luo You's hands.

People in the wilderness seem to have a commonality, they are unwilling to be instructed by others, and they yearn for the freedom and true freedom that are difficult to obtain under the constraints of the old era.

But this word is destined to be distant for Luo You. From the moment of separation in the first year of the Colonial Destruction, the word "freedom" has no chance with Luo You.

Luo Wei is Luo You's hope for life, and this love is destined to become a shackle that Luo You cannot get rid of, and everything that binds him. You can only move forward in this life.

For Luo You, his path did not go left or right, but only a path to slim hope. He could only walk to the darkness of this path until death, and had no choice.

But on this road, Luo You, who had been burying forward, would occasionally raise his head and look at the roads that did not belong to him. He would unconsciously fantasize, it would be great if he could change his way of living.

When more and more people die under their own hands, letters, letters, rings, freedom, love... When these beautiful things are destroyed by their own hands...

Luo You may not only kill the wilderness forces, but also killing "self" again and again...

...

Just as Luo You stared at the white candle, in the hazy darkness that the orange light could not be melted, a blurred figure appeared and faintly appeared. When the afterglow sprinkled on the pale skin, climbing up the blood-colored red lips like a leaping veil, Sethia gently stretched out her hands, walked around behind Luo You, and gently placed it on his face.

If someone else approached Luo You from behind, he had already paid the price of blood, but Luo You was still staring at the candlelight, motionless, and said lightly: "You are coming out by yourself again."

I don’t know when it started, although Sesia was still Luo You’s entourage, but she could have come out without Luo You’s summoning. At first, he was very uncomfortable with this, but now he is gradually getting used to it.

Sesia gently put her chin on Luo You's shoulders and lazily attached her red lips to his ears: "Does it make you sad to kill those people?"

Luo You replied lightly: "No."

"If you don't want to do these things yourself, you can give them all to me."

"Sayed, no."

"Have you forgotten something? As a entourage, I can feel your psychological ups and downs. You can't deceive me." Sethia stretched out her slender finger, poked Luo You's cheek, and joked, "You are getting more and more arrogant."

"no."

"Article is right and wrong, and you still say it's not arrogant."

“…”

For some reason, since Sethia was born in the ancestor incident and began to have an independent consciousness, she has often teased Luo You and enjoyed it.

However, Luo You was not an interesting person. He ignored Sethia and just stared at the candlelight, his eyes seemed to tremble with the flames: "The others have countless choices, but for me, there is only one road, but... I don't know if I'm still on that road."

"Are you afraid of the faraway future? I don't know if the girl is still alive, I don't know if everything she does is meaningful, I'm afraid that all hope will be wasted in the end, and I'm afraid that everything I did in the first half of my life will be a fiction." Sethia seemed to express Luo You's heart. Suddenly, her arms around Luo You's neck and waist, hugged him in her arms, and said softly, "You may be empty in front of you, but you should know that I will always be behind you."

Luo You very much disliked being held like this, especially in this mood, he felt like a pitiful puppy.

Self-righteous mercy is what Luo You hates the most.

However, after Luo You struggled for a while, Sethia gently stretched out a hand, blindfolded Luo You's eyes, buried his head in his arms, as if he had melted him into the land of gentleness, and his red lips whispered in his ears: "You don't have to be deliberately strong, at least not in front of me..."

After this sentence, Luo You's body stiffened for a while, slowly relaxed, and leaned gently in Sesia's arms. I don't know if it was really tired or touched by the tenderness that had been away for a long time.

"If you feel you are going in the wrong direction, then go back to the starting point." Sesia put her red lips close to Luo You's ears, and left a light kiss on her soft earlobes, showing an intoxicating smile on her face, "I will walk with you thousands of times."
