Chapter 203 How to bear the burden
When the boy woke up, he felt the soft light around him. It was very bright but not dazzling, and it felt warm.
Cracking... The sound of flame burning and rolling sounded in my ears. In addition to the light, there was also the fire of all purpose.
He slowly supported himself and looked around blankly.
The collapsed buildings, broken experimental benches, lines that were experiencing light, and flames that swept the entire line of sight. As you can see, it was a ruin.
He was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the light in front of him.
"It's you..." The young man spoke lightly, his voice was extremely dry and trembling, with an abnormal sound. After a pause, he continued, "... Did you save me?"
He seemed to be enduring something hard, clenched his fists tightly, and his flush nails were embedded in his palms.
The light in front of him was flashing, and a red figure appeared faintly, and the voice of nothingness came into his mind - "Ah, it seems."
"That...other people..."
"It's not too late to become ashes."
"..."
The boy's face was pale, and his forced body gradually softened. He collapsed on the ground, pouring out from the emotions he had been enduring, and tears fell on the ground and soon evaporated.
The flames were burning violently, and a shaking building rammed to the ground, and smoke was raised again.
Only the boy was crying and choking. After a long time of silence on the court, the light ethereal voice said, "You called me?"
"What... means?" The boy quickly wiped his tears and looked up, his voice trembling a little.
"Ah, I was floating in the turbulent space, but suddenly I felt the light ahead and came over."
The boy was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything. The red figure in the light seemed to wave his arm. He continued, "Because the power on my body is in chaos, I couldn't control it when it came."
The sound of light revealed a hint of irritability.
"You..." the boy was silent for a while and asked slowly: "Is it Ultraman?"
Guang paused, and while the boy was waiting nervously, he let out a "hmm" softly.
The bright light slowly faded away, and an Ultraman with red and moon-white tattoos appeared in front of the boy. The crystal on his body exuded dazzling colors, but there was a trace of black mist scattered around the blue energy lamp on his chest.
The black mist floated out and melted into the surrounding light.
"...What's this?"
"Dark, the culprit who made my energy messy, became weak, so I couldn't control myself and ruined the place."
"I'm so sorry."
Ultraman, who was lightly red, said lightly, his figure dazzling in the light, and a trace of black mist overflowed around.
Just like the perfect painting with more destructive strokes, the boy couldn't help but stretch out his hand and penetrated into his body when he touched the overflowing black fog, but he didn't feel any discomfort.
"You are human beings, I have seen you before. Human beings are really a miracle." Guang said lightly.
"Do you like the earth?" the boy withdrew his hand, and he looked down, and suddenly asked after he was silent.
"how?"
"I am actually studying the light particle converter." The boy took a deep breath, and his voice calmed down abnormally at this moment. "It's the kind of... that can make humans have the power of light like you, but... it failed just now."
Guang Jingjing looked at him without saying anything, and seemed to take it for granted. After pausing, the boy continued, "The reason I want to do this is because I want to protect the earth... from the darkness."
"...Dark?" The sound of light fluctuated.
"I had a dream." The boy calmed down and said softly: "In the dream, the darkness fell on the earth, and destruction and despair also came to the earth. I saw the fear on people's faces, and they fled everywhere to avoid threats."
"However, there is no place to escape. The huge monsters destroy the city, the smoke of gunpowder fills the whole world, and the darkness completely covers the clear sky."
"So I hope I can have light, light that dispels darkness, but failed, but...you are here too."
The boy looked up, looked at the light in front of him, and looked at him with hope and prayer, "Maybe this is the last hope. I want to ask you, please protect that planet."
"Even if I have never set foot on the blue home star, I don't want it to be eroded by darkness, because it is the most precious treasure of human beings, and it is also my favorite hometown in this life."
The red Ultraman looked at him without saying anything, and the boy looked at him stubbornly, but his expression gradually began to despair. The tears that had already stopped could not help but burst out into his eyes again. His voice trembled, "No...?"
"Why don't you do this by yourself? You won't die. I can save you, and you can still work hard."
"But you want to put your hope on me, and on me who may not necessarily succeed."
The sound of light was a little misty, with an indescribable meaning, "With me like this, do you think I can really protect the earth?"
"..."
The atmosphere was a little quiet for a moment, with only the sound of flames shaking. The flames shone on the boy's face, casting half of the shadows, which were as secret as it was.
"sorry..."
After a while, the boy slowly spoke, low and hoarse, "Because, I have no choice...I really can't live like this."
Some water droplets fell on the ground, and the boy tried his best to suppress his sobs, so that his voice could be clearly conveyed, "They...they are working hard with me for this..."
"They have always believed in me and are willing to help me. It was me who pulled them into this vortex, hiding the real reason, deceiving them to experiment for me, and now, taking their lives..."
"They didn't know anything from beginning to end."
Tears made their eyes distorted and blurred. The boy looked up and looked at the light in front of him. Even if he tried hard to endure it, he finally cried out in a very unhappy way. "Now they are all dead because of me... If I hadn't insisted, they wouldn't... Woo... Sorry, I really don't have the courage..."
"I just think of this, I...sorry..."
The boy buried his face in his palm, and he whimpered in his trembling voice, and continued to make a meaningless apology.
Guang didn't speak anymore, and looked at him quietly.
Some water droplets fell on the ground and were soon evaporated by the flames.
"I see."
...
The soft light wrapped the boy, and the red Ultraman slowly melted into his body.
The devastating explosion spread from here again, and was completely razed to the ground in the deafening "boom" sound and the dazzling light.
The flames burned violently, like a scene in purgatory, while the boy stood in the middle of the ruins, with a faint light on his body.
"Actually, I can't do it either."
"But you can't escape."
"Since you can't bear this heavy weight."
"Then... can we bear it?"
What is played back in memory is the light planet that flashes in the universe, wrapped in darkness little by little.
