I, the Lord of the Fifth Heavenly Throne, flow out of all things!

She slightly avoided his gentle gaze and murmured shyly:

"Have you been watching me...?"

"Well, Erica came over once during that time..."

"It's not good to keep staring at a girl sleeping."

"Can't I watch?"

"……Bullying."

Knowing that Shiyin was a little shy, Duanmulian stopped teasing her.

He raised his hand to comb Shiyin's messy hair, and then let her go back to her computer where she was working.

The reason why Shiyin worked so hard that she fell asleep was because her work was almost finished, and she was now backing up and uploading all the important files.

Duanmu Lian also knew that the time had come, and summoned Liu Zi, Natsume, and Erica with her mind.

"Lian, everything is done, so——"

After unplugging the USB drive that stored the files and placing it on the table, Shiyin stood up and looked at Duan Mulian with bright eyes, saying softly:

"Take me away, no matter how far."

"Ah."

Looking at the girl who showed her smile and trust, Duanmulian gently took her hand.

She is an important existence who gives meaning to my existence. Staying by her side is the home I have found and chosen.

……

At the same time, Erica and Natsume, who received the notice, showed pure joy and anticipation in their eyes.

The day of liberation and freedom has come.

Felix in the Island Research Institute and even around the world has received the spiritual call from Duanmulian.

Many kind-hearted Felixes are willing to work for humanity until they die; they are all generally so gentle.

Even if they are treated badly by humans, they are still treated kindly.

They were created to save the world, and Felix cares and takes this mission given to them at birth very seriously.

As for those Felixes who were willing to complete their missions, Duanmulian had already given them the knowledge to complete their missions, so that they had nothing to worry about.

So, when the only thing left in their hearts is the desire for freedom.

Duanmulian's [Inverted Dreamland] began to respond to their prayers and desires one by one, and began to teleport them to the Water Lotus Star where Felix's clan lived.

In the mansion, Natsume and Erica were not teleported away because they had freedom here.

"Lieutenant Inaba, this is for you."

In the daily working room, Natsume handed the USB flash drive in his hand to Naoto Inaba who looked confused.

"Natsume, what is this?"

Looking down at the USB flash drive in his hand, then looking at Natsume who was smiling gently in front of him, Naoto Inaba inexplicably had an ominous premonition.

Because the smile on the other person's face is like a smile of farewell.

"An entirely new generation of ship systems and software. My job is done, Lieutenant Inaba."

Looking at this slightly clumsy man in front of him, who had been friendly with him for some time, Natsume said with a gentle smile, which made Naoto Inaba feel his heart tighten and his whole body stiffen. He said:

"I have to go now."

"!!!"

Naoto Inaba looked at the beautiful girl in front of him with a dazed expression.

go?

Where is Natsume going?

Looking into Natsume's eyes, Naoto Inaba read the emotions in this woman's eyes.

"…You, you want to escape from here?"

Naoto Inaba used hoarse and stiff words to confirm Natsume's true feelings.

He is just an ordinary man that you can see everywhere.

Because of his family's nagging, he was sent to a military academy, and then came here as an outstanding soldier, met Natsume in front of him, and lived with her as her guard.

Natsume was a special existence. His loneliness and desire for freedom attracted him irresistibly.

Although he didn't say it out loud, he had already fallen in love with Natsume.

"Yes."

Looking at Naoto Inaba, whose eyes were flickering with struggling emotions, Natsume nodded with a gentle smile.

Why did you tell me you were running away!?

In addition to being Natsume's guard, Naoto Inaba is also her monitor.

Now this woman told her to escape from here. Was she hinting at something to him?

"You, I, I can't..."

Naoto Inaba pulled out the pistol from the belt around his waist, but his action of aiming the gun at Natsume seemed so clumsy and awkward.

Pointing the gun at Natsume's body, which could hurt her and threaten her life, made Naoto Inaba feel conflicted and in great pain.

"I have to leave anyway. One way is to burn out the rest of my life and leave. The other is to leave here with my own will and wish."

Looking at the man in front of him, Natsume said something softly that stunned the other party, "Lieutenant Inaba, how do you want me to leave?"

One is to leave after all the surplus value is squeezed out and the workers work until death.

One is to truly leave here based on one's desire for freedom.

Naoto Inaba has always known that Natsume is lonely, but he can't do anything, nothing...

Now, Natsume is asking him how she should leave.

The cruel words spoken in a gentle tone made Naoto Inaba's heart feel as if it was being torn apart.

“Why…why are you saying these things to me!?!?”

Naoto Inaba weakly dropped the pistol in his hand, completely devastated by Natsume's words.

How does she want him to choose?

Do you hope that she will continue to stay here, remain a caged bird, and burn out until she dies?

How could I possibly say something like that?

"I thought we were already close friends. Maybe I was a little greedy. I'm sorry, Lieutenant Inaba, for making you make such a choice."

Natsume bowed to Inaba Naoto with some apology.

But the tiny bit of expectation and loss in her eyes was captured by Naoto Inaba.

At the same time, he also understood why Natsume said that to him.

She... was expecting me to be able to save her...

Naoto Inaba really wanted to respond to Natsume's wish, but as a soldier, being a deserter and a traitor made him feel strongly condemned and guilty.

Making such a choice would also harm his family, so he couldn't...

But the pain of letting Natsume leave him was even more tormenting for Naoto Inaba.

The door of the room opened quietly, and Duanmulian appeared at the door holding Shiyin's hand, accompanied by Erica and Liuzi.

Looking at the two people in the room, Erica's expression changed slightly.

But when I saw Naoto Inaba's hanging pistol, I roughly understood what happened.

"Natsume, we should go."

Duanmulian looked at Naoto Inaba, read his memory and knew what had just happened in the room.

"Did you plan all this, Doctor?!"

After checking the guard's communication equipment and not getting any response, Naoto Inaba's eyes turned slightly red.

At this moment, he was in pain and confusion. When he saw Duanmulian holding Shiyin's hand at the door, he immediately realized that she was the mastermind.

It goes without saying how important these two people who are leading the human escape plan are to all of humanity.

Now that Duanmu Lian brought Shiyin to Natsume's room, no soldiers came over. Inaba Naoto also thought that something had happened to the guard team in the mansion.

"Yes, we should retire after the work is finished. Shiyin has solved all the problems with the spacecraft engine. Her mission is over."

Facing Naoto Inaba's questioning, Duanmulian's light words made the other party's emotions even more out of control.

"But humans still need..."

Naoto Inaba doesn't want to be separated from Natsume, but he doesn't want to let her down. At this moment, he wants to vent his inner entanglement and pain.

However, Duanmu Lian would not accept his escaping from reality and venting his anger by not wanting to make a choice.

He spoke directly, interrupting the other party calmly, saying:

“Do we need to devote ourselves to the cause until death?”

"..."

These words made Naoto Inaba choke, because he knew what Felix's ending would be.

The unified government needs Felix but is also wary of them, so it wants to keep a firm grip on them.

Seeing Shion's outstanding and excellent performance in recent years, some people want to extract samples from Shion, trying to copy her intelligence by cloning her.

Most of the people at the top believed that Felix should be like a battery, generating electricity for the survival and continuation of mankind until his death.

After death, the body should be recycled for research purposes.

Duanmu Lian was able to resist the urge to use the Hand of God to reverse the situation for those ignorant guys because she didn't want to create chaos for Shiyin's sake.

"If you do this, you will have no way out."

Naoto Inaba clenched the pistol in his hand, but was unable to raise it to point the muzzle at the person in front of him, and confirmed with a bitter expression.

If they escape like this, the Unified Army will definitely hunt them down like crazy.

Because the two people in front of him are too important.

"We didn't intend to board the spacecraft, and our paths of survival would not overlap with yours."

Duan Mu Lian glanced at Natsume and motioned for her to come over quickly.

Natsume finally looked at Inaba Naoto helplessly and apologetically, then trotted over to Duanmu Lian.

"Do you want to stay on this dying planet? You are crazy..."

Looking at Natsume's departing back and Duanmu Lian holding Shiyin's hand, Inaba Naoto felt bitter and painful in his heart, but also inexplicably envious.

Perhaps deep down in his heart, he also wanted to be like the man in front of him, holding Natsume's hand and taking her away from here, giving her freedom of life.

But in reality, he couldn't do it, and he didn't have the courage.

"No one can escape death, but I don't want to regret it endlessly when the inevitable death comes. Since you can't make a choice, just escape in silence."

He spoke of his will in a calm tone, and Duanmulian's mind moved.

The next moment, Naoto Inaba immediately felt dizzy and staggered to the ground.

Before she closed her eyes and fainted, she saw Natsume's complicated and apologetic expression.

Don't show me that expression, you have nothing to be sorry for...

With such an unconveyable thought, Naoto Inaba fainted and his consciousness fell into darkness.
