"Li Aozi is a madman who can kill through a human experintation organization for his own principles."
"Hey, Nomi..." Rista tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Is that really how you talk?"
"Li Aozi is a handso young beauty, but he never used his looks to gain others' sympathy. Instead, he chose to carve out a world with his fists and Arcane Energy."
"Honestly, in my impression, Li Aozi has never been the warrior who broke through the blockade of the Azure Star's curtain and changed the fates of Frost Plated and the Four Nations."
"No matter what Li Aozi looks like in others' eyes, in mine, Li Aozi is forever the madman who would unhesitatingly shoot himself to prove he's not afraid of pain, the fool who promised to change the injustice in Frost Plated, the teammate who, due to a mont's carelessness, got killed in an explosion, taking my Arcane Energy for nothing."
"You have to understand, in my eyes, you're never anyone special."
Nomi stepped forward, squatted, and looked into Li Aozi's dazed eyes on parallel:
"We're all ordinary people. So we all make mistakes, think only of ourselves, and have no grand aspirations."
"But precisely because you and I, such ordinary people, make up the vast majority of the world, this world is ours. Those lofty deities need to subdue us to rule this world."
"I'm a correspondence college graduate, you're a vocational school security guard. Even now, you're a shabby blacksmith, and I'm just a volunteer soldier. Due to limited talent, we can never participate in the chessboard that decides civilization's fate."
"However, now, perhaps this is our once-in-ten-lifetis opportunity."
She extended her hand:
"Whether it's the Primordial Abyss Will Abbes or the masses, this is the only chance for ordinary people like us to make those elite rulers bow and beg us."
"It's not about saving the world for others, but about them praying for us."
"If you still have this determination, then co, amidst the lants across the lands, we will save them, just like rescuing a drowning stray dog."
"Even if our actions continue the rule of those people, the mark we leave will never fade, and people will rember that civilians also have a chance to change the world. Sotis, aning is more important than the result."
Li Aozi's cloudy eyes gazed into Nomi's violet eyes.
Over a hundred years ago, in an underground ward of Mingji Humanity in the Outer World of Azure Star, a forr bank security guard also looked into these violet eyes through a thick iron door.
Tis have changed, and now the person needing a hand to climb up is no longer the frail girl.
Nomi had cut her long hair, her body had grown tall and strong, shedding the sickly state that allowed others to bully her, yet when she grins, her mouth still reveals her full set of shark-like sharp teeth.
So people have changed, yet seem unchanged.
Li Aozi looked at Nomi and suddenly realized that his ties with this girl were actually quite sparse, even returning his Arcane Energy early, wiped clean of all outcos by Lord Entropy.
But when he was abandoned by his true self, humanity cast into the wilderness, the first to find her was this girl with no identity or status, and barely any attachnts.
"Hey, Li Aozi."
Nomi smiled and said:
"Do you rember what I said back then?"
.........
"Don't think of all this as unrelated to you. This is our world. Whether it's or you, aren't we all part of this world?"
"This isn't a reckless ga. To us Outer World people, the Rose Army, no, all those who resist the Four Nations are our faith."
"In fact, anyone with eyes can see that resisting the Four Nations is impossible—but we insist on doing it. Even if only with teeth and nails, to inflict a little pain on the Four Nations, the process of struggle is enough to prove one thing to them:"
"We, we these crawlers scraping by in the Outer World, and those living comfortably in the Four Nations, watching TV and reading books, are also people, are also life."
.........
"Back then we were much more miserable than now, weren't we? Yet we had the courage to resist the unbeatable Four Nations."
Nomi said:
"What's the difference between the Four Nations and the Heavenly God?"
Li Aozi answered, "It's not the sa..."
"What's different? If they are both unbeatable, then there's no difference! They are all our enemies."
"So what if there is change? The beings of Starry Abyss will still be enslaved, and in thousands or tens of thousands of years, at most another revolution or invasion will erupt, or perhaps we'll invade other universes, other beings' hos—so it's all just cycles, what's the difference? Does resistance have any aning?"
Li Aozi sneered:
"I can't do such things. If I did, I'd be the sa as those invaders."
"aning?"
Nomi spoke solemnly:
"To hell with Goby and aning."
"Damn it, stop asking about the aning of resisting them! With a college degree, what do I know about aning or no aning? As soone who considers themselves one of the masses, you should be aware that when most people do sothing, it's surely not based on so sense of aning."
"The gods of the high heavens regard their abilities as power, and we mortals must tell them that such power is worthless without the witness of mortals. The Primordial God Clan always thought they could do anything, so they did whatever they wanted. We must tell them that mortals do whatever they want without asking for aning."
