Marshal Osman stood up and leaned on the hospital bed... No, he is no longer a marshal.
"teacher?!"
Hearing this, Lingqi turned around in disbelief.
"He's right. Without him, I would never have left federal prison."
After hearing this, Lingqi reluctantly moved out of the way and let Marshal Gu Kui enter the ward.
Marshal Gukui walked to the hospital bed, looked at Osman, his old friend, and showed an inexplicable smile.
"Why are you laughing? You came to see me and you don't know how to buy a fruit basket?"
Osman couldn't help but laugh as he spoke.
"Ivy, bring a bench for this old guy to save him from back pain after standing for a long time."
"Yes, teacher."
Ivy nodded, moved a bench, and then dragged the reluctant Lingqi out of the ward sensibly.
From this point of view, the relationship between Osman and Gukui, the two legendary marshals of the Federation, does not seem to be as rigid as the outside world reports.
In fact, both of them and Father Heber are disciples of the same teacher and have grown up together.
The disagreement is just a political disagreement and will certainly not have much impact on personal relationships.
The closer you get to their level, the more you can distinguish how to get along with each other on different occasions and situations.
"I won."
After a long silence, Marshal Gu Kui suddenly spoke.
"Yes...you won! I have defeated you all my life, but I lost in the last battle. With this loss, I can't beat you again..."
Osman breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slightly.
Immediately, he looked at Marshal Gu Kui and said seriously: "Old guy, although I lost, I still have to tell you, you can't do this!
Federation militarism cannot become the core concept of entering the interstellar era, it will only speed up the destruction of the Federation! If Izumi knew this, teacher, he would never forgive you!"
"Stop putting pressure on me as a teacher!"
Marshal Gu Kui suddenly became excited and his hands trembled slightly: "If he really regarded me as a disciple, he wouldn't treat me like that!
He only told you everything about Long Xia, not me! He didn't care about me at all if I was allowed to go on the wrong path!"
"you...!"
When Osman heard this, his pupils suddenly shrank.
He heard some meaning from Marshal Gu Kui's words.
Marshal Gu Kui kept repeating these words, and suddenly burst into laughter with red eyes.
This smile looks like a smile but not a smile, like a cry but not a cry. It makes people feel extremely sad and sad.
Osman was silent. He always thought that Marshal Gu Kui didn't know the truth, but he didn't expect him to know.
He knew very well how painful it would be for Marshal Gu Kui to know the truth!
Therefore, he didn't know how to comfort Marshal Gu Kui.
After all, even I, when I knew the truth, blamed the teacher in my heart.
"He clearly knows what is right and what is wrong! But he only teaches you the right path and lets me wander in the abyss of error!
I have used it all my life, all my life! Only now do I know what is right and what is wrong...
Teacher... is too biased..."
Marshal Gu Kui buried his head beside the hospital bed, and the sunlight outside the window shone on his pale hair, making it look so dazzling.
"Why..."
Osman put his hand on his old friend's shoulder and sighed softly.
"But didn't you win? Although the teacher taught me the right things, I didn't succeed! Although you moved forward with mistakes, you finally broke through the darkness and stepped into the light.
But now, I, the person who was right from the beginning, has fallen. Only you can accomplish that goal, right?"
"....No!"
Marshal Gu Kui slowly raised his head: "About that goal, you are wrong, and the teacher is wrong too! Only I am right!"
"What's the meaning?"
Osman sat up straight and frowned.
"The teacher's plan is great, but he is wrong! He asked me to turn into a sharp blade in the darkness and clear all obstacles for you until you get the help of the Arango survivors, defeat me, and then re-establish the Long Xia system!
But he never thought that the remaining people of Long Xia are all people from the Alango era, and they are not the real Long Xia!
I have met a man who is a remnant of the Arango era. His goal is to rebuild that past country.
But... he, like the Federation, and those anti-Alliance allies... are dilapidated and decadent!
If the Alango system is established, although the Nansha world will become better than it is now, in the end it will just jump from one abyss to another!"
Marshal Gu Kui stood up slowly, walked to the window sill, and stretched out his hand to feel the warmth of the sun.
Osman was silent again. He looked at the back of his old friend and didn't know what he was thinking.
"Only by destroying all the existences of the old era! Can a new era be built among the ruins of the old era! It is not Arango, nor is it Long Xia!
It... will be a fusion of the past and the present! A brand-new, perfect! Country with brand-new systems and concepts that can truly take this planet into the universe!"
"When you talk about the old times, does that include you and me?"
Osman lowered his head and asked in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
Marshal Gukui turned around and stretched out a hand towards Osman: "I came to you because I need your help! Without you, I cannot make this era happen!"
"But... after our old era is shattered, who has the ability to build this new era..."
Osman still lowered his head and murmured.
"A young man! A young man with unlimited potential. Although he has not grown up yet, I can see the shadow of that era in him!
It’s like he was born specifically for this era! No... he is a new era in his own right!”
Marshal Gu Kui seemed to have a light in his eyes, the light of the new era!
There was a deep silence in the ward.
After a long time...
Osman suddenly raised his head with a smile on his face.
"You are right, the new era should not continue to be led by those old ideas. Civilization cannot live in the past forever, even if it is so glorious!
I was wrong, and so was the teacher! The new era in your words is the truly correct path!
so..."
Snap!
Two hands that had been enemies for a lifetime were tightly held together.
"I want to see what he is like!"
"You will see, at the last moment when the old era turns into ruins, we will see..."
A smile appeared on Marshal Gu Kui's face. He seemed to have seen the figures of the old era falling in the ruins.
As long as he and Osman join forces, nothing can stop the new era from coming to this civilization!
