Super God: Speak to the ultimate fear!

Chapter 60 Rose, don't pity me. [Seeking Ferns!]

"Get up and speak. Tell me, do you really want to fly?" Rose looked at Ge Xiaolun with complicated eyes, her tone silent.

“…” Ge Xiaolun silently stood up, his gaze subconsciously glancing at Qiangwei, but then subconsciously avoiding her.

"I can't."

“I know you can’t do it, but I can.” Rose silently looked at Ge Xiaolun, who was walking with his head down and didn’t dare to look at her. She seemed to suddenly understand something, and all the confusion that had been lingering in her heart slowly dissipated.

The way to make soldiers brave is not to make them obey orders and die, but to make them brave first.

Just like the first rule of all "Rookie" mechs, which is to escape, the mech squad's mission is to cover its escape. Until one day, these recruits stop running away, the recruits become veterans, and the veterans will continue to lead the recruits.
“…” Ge Xiaolun remained silent, head down, without saying a word.

A complex emotion flickered in Rose's wine-red eyes. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Ge Xiaolun say in a deep voice, "So... Rose, you should tell me... what you're holding behind your back."

"!!!" Rose's pupils trembled slightly, and her hand, which was hidden behind her back, subconsciously pulled back a little. But in the end, she still took her hand out with a complicated expression, and slowly opened it in front of Ge Xiaolun, revealing the [Rose] reagent inside.

"It was a vial of reagent that Feng Xi gave me." Rose tried to hide it, but in the end she told the truth hesitantly.

"So this is what helped me fly?" Ge Xiaolun lowered his head, his gaze silently fixed on the wine-red liquid in Rose's hand. Its beautiful color was like Rose's eyes.
“No, this is another method.” Rose hesitated subconsciously, while also pulling her hand back a little.

"Do you remember how I joined the Super Soldier Squad?" Ge Xiaolun looked at the [Rose] reagent in Rose's hand, remained silent for a while, and then whispered, his tone carrying a hint of reminiscence.

"." Rose didn't speak, and even turned her head away, leaving Ge Xiaolun with only a side profile from which his expression was unclear.

The sea breeze caressed Rose's cheeks, like a mischievous boy lifting her wine-red hair, letting it dance and sway freely in the wind, stirring her heart.
"I don't actually have any lofty ambitions. If it weren't for that super gene, I would probably just be an ordinary college student, find a menial job after graduation, get married, have children, and live an ordinary life."

"Although it's a bit embarrassing to say, I really came to Super Soldier Company for Rose. I don't think I have the same sense of responsibility as Qi Lin and Monkey. I talked to Brother Feng and said that I feel like I'm only here to risk my life for a woman. I don't think I have much of that sense of national responsibility." Ge Xiaolun's voice was very soft and deep, containing all his emotions.

"I thought Feng would yell at me. Like you said before, he came to save the world, while I was just thinking about falling in love. I felt so stupid. But he didn't yell at me. He just said that I could wait for the world to love me, and then I could love the world. I didn't understand at the time because it wasn't what I was taught."

"But I can definitely feel myself becoming more and more eager to prove myself and to progress together with my comrades."

"Rose." Looking at Rose's long hair, disheveled in the sea breeze below her earlobes, Ge Xiaolun hesitated for a moment, then reached out a somewhat stiff hand to smooth her hair.
Rose tensed slightly, tilting her head but not dodging. However, just as Rose was making a huge decision in her heart, she suddenly noticed that Ge Xiaolun's fingers, which were trying to grab the long hair in the wind, stopped in mid-air, and then, without hesitation, he grabbed the [Rose] reagent from Rose's unresponsive hand.

"Rose, don't pity me." Rose's heart trembled slightly, and she subconsciously looked up at Ge Xiaolun. But Ge Xiaolun was no longer looking at her. Instead, he held the [Rose] reagent in the air, merging it with the distant sunset. The sunlight shone through the glass bottle of the reagent, making the wine-red liquid inside shimmer with extremely dazzling starlight. His gaze was deep and unfocused.

"Just as someone once said I should follow my heart and only do what I want to do when necessary, that applies to you too."

"I admit I'm a loser, I'm not worth you going against your own heart to make a choice, and I don't want you to make a choice based on all sorts of concerns." Ge Xiaolun actually knew everything. He liked Qiangwei very much, but he wasn't so pathetic as to force Qiangwei to like him.

"So, I don't want to be a loser anymore."

"Just like when I backed down and deserted, someone covered my retreat, allowing me to follow my own choices."

"Now, you should step back, do what you want to do, and love whoever you want to love. This is my business, and I will take responsibility for it!"

After speaking, Ge Xiaolun looked at the [Rose] reagent in his hand, which overlapped with the glorious sunset, and a struggle flashed in his eyes. He knew it was fake, that it was just an illusion, or even an ugly dream.
But he also understood that he couldn't give up his angelic wings; he didn't want to hold his teammates back.
To dream of being a girl who knows the other person is hesitant and doesn't truly like you is ugly and heartbreaking. But Ge Xiaolun had no other choice.
Everyone is working hard, and he wants to work hard too. He wants to make his own contribution!

The struggle in his eyes flashed by, and he twisted the rotating cylinder with his fingers. A special needle emerged from the bottom. He hesitated for only half a second before tilting his neck and stabbing himself directly into it!
At this moment, he will no longer run away!
"No one is born knowing how to be brave." On the distant tower, Feng Xi leaned against the railing with his back to the setting sun, and whispered to Lena, who was watching with great interest.

"However, the [Rose] reagent may be about to expire."

"Huh? Why?" Lena was taken aback, her eyes widening instinctively as she looked at Feng Xi. Had all their effort been for nothing?
"Because the essence of [Rose] is to evoke beautiful memories of roses. I extracted and enhanced it a lot, which is why I need the rose to be given by the person herself. I can't give something that allows people to fantasize about others; it must be 'authorized' by the person themselves."

The heart has the Tigers, fine sniffing the rose.

"So... Ge Xiaolun is now resisting that dream???" Lena's eyes widened, wanting to ask Feng Xi if there was an easier way.
"Don't worry, I'll handle it. Okay, looks like I'm not needed." Feng Xi looked at the clouds where the sea and sky met in the distance and couldn't help but sigh softly.

Wow!

Its beautiful black wings transformed into a blur as it soared into the vast clouds.
