Soul Transcription?
Alright, all the survivors in this area have been rescued.
During this nearly 24-hour non-stop period, Gwen acted as a probe, an engineering machine, and even a makeshift emergency doctor. Although his overall energy reserves weren't depleted, his mental energy was truly exhausted.
In Gwen's own opinion, it was more tiring than fighting Kevin.
This kind of highly repetitive and meticulous work is extremely mentally taxing.
"Um..."
Hearing Gwen's words, the Robin, who had been assisting Gwen, couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Her delicate face, now covered in dust, looked weary, making the beautiful young woman appear like a fairy descended to earth, adding a touch of realism.
"Thank you so much, Gwen."
Without you, I really can't imagine...
Having completed the most urgent search and rescue task, Robin's taut string suddenly relaxed a lot, and the various emotions accumulated in her heart could no longer be completely restrained.
As she spoke, the Robin choked up without realizing it, and two streams of tears welled up uncontrollably, leaving two bright tear tracks on her pretty face, which was covered in a layer of ashen skin.
Everything painstakingly built has turned to ashes. The smiling faces that once looked forward to the future are now only filled with pain and numbness, and there are even more faces of the dead, still bearing traces of fear and terror...
Everything was an almost unbearable pressure on the girl who had been full of hope yesterday morning, making it hard for her to breathe.
"It's alright, it's all over now..."
Faced with the Robin was clearly out of control, Gwen thought it would be better to let her cry it out and vent her emotions.
Therefore, although he spoke words of comfort, Gwen's mental energy was actually guiding the Robin's spirit, allowing her to vent all the bitterness in her heart.
This caused the Robin to burst into tears, burying her face in Gwen's chest, letting hot tears stream down her face. Her slender, dust- and blood-stained hands clenched into fists and pounded on her chest in a fit of rage.
"Why!
What did they do wrong?
Why is this happening...?
Gwen could only let go and allow the Robin to vent his emotions.
Chapter 467 Soul Transcription?
The sun blazed overhead, its bright rays piercing through the lingering smoke of gunpowder and falling on the girl's tear-streaked face, revealing a haggard look.
After a good cry, the girl, who seemed to have been awake for a day and a night, finally got tired and pulled Gwen to sit on the ruins after a break in her sobs.
Resting its head on Gwen's shoulder, the Robin stared silently at the ruins, its eyes red and swollen, at the empty spaces that had been specially cleared to temporarily house the bodies of the victims whom Gwen had rescued. Its two dusty ear feathers drooped listlessly, showing no trace of its former elegance.
Are you feeling better?
After a long while, noticing that the Robin's emotions had gradually calmed down, Gwen spoke softly.
"Um..."
Upon hearing Gwen's words, the Robin's blank little face regained some color, and he sniffed.
"I'm sorry, Gwen, for showing you my outburst."
As she spoke, the girl subconsciously wiped away the tears on her face, but ended up making her face look like a mess.
"There's nothing to apologize for; it's what I should do."
Hearing the girl's hoarse voice, Gwen shook his head slightly, then pulled out a bottle of drink and handed it to her.
"You're crying so hard, you should drink some water."
There's still a lot to do; I can't get so tired I can't speak.
"Um..."
After rubbing his face, the robin, his eyes Robin, took the drink and gulped it down. However, he choked on it because he drank too fast and coughed repeatedly.
"Well..."
Seeing the girl's haggard appearance, Gwen sighed and took out a stack of tissues to carefully wipe her face.
If the same thing happened to him, he would leave home happily in the morning, only to find that everything he had worked so hard to build was gone, leaving only ruins and numb faces...
Gwen believed he probably didn't perform much better than the Robin.
"Gwen..."
As Gwen wiped him clean, the Robin just stared blankly at the ruins before suddenly calling out.
"Um?"
Gwen raised an eyebrow.
"Everything we did... really..."
The Robin stopped speaking halfway through her sentence, her trembling lips unable to utter another sound, but Gwen could guess her question—
Perhaps after suffering a setback, he became insecure about everything he did.
"You came with good intentions, and everything you did was a good deed. You truly brought happiness and hope to the people here, allowing smiles to appear on faces that might have remained numb for life without your arrival."
He brushed aside the girl's damp hair and turned her haggard face towards him.
"This is what you have done, enabling them to live vividly as human beings for the first time."
None of this has anything to do with you now.
"All of this was caused by those Space Pirates who were already dead and dismembered, by those who brought these bastards here."
"But if it weren't for me..."
Hearing Gwen's words, the Robin's eyes shone even brighter, but he still wanted to ask something, only to be interrupted by Gwen—
"If it weren't for you, these people here might not have been attacked and slaughtered by Space Pirates, because they wouldn't even have had the chance—"
They would see no hope in this war-torn world, living numbly like idiots, only to be captured one day and used as bullet holes, or even made into soap.
Gwen stared intently into those emerald green eyes that seemed to have turned into a stagnant pool, and said in a deep voice.
"It was you, it was your arrival, everything you did, that allowed them to truly live as human beings, proudly in this world, instead of living like **, waiting to be slaughtered at any moment."
This is the meaning of everything you've done, do you understand?
"...
Um..."
The stagnant water trembled slowly, and finally began to flow again. The tears that had seemed to have dried up flowed again, and she collapsed helplessly into Gwen's arms, weeping silently.
All Gwen could do was offer this helpless girl a tiny bit of support.
"Gwen, is this... the cruelty of the universe?"
In her mind, Elysia, who had witnessed everything through Gwen's perspective, spoke in a low voice, no longer as lively and playful as before.
"To be precise, it is what the weak have to face in the absence of Order and rules."
Looking at Elysia's delicate face shrouded in a somber aura within the Stigmata Space, Gwen sighed softly.
"Is there no Order in this universe?"
Upon hearing this, Elysia almost instinctively asked in return.
"Order is dead."
Gwen sighed.
"What exists now is merely a precarious stability maintained amidst chaos, which could be overturned at any moment due to interests and certain insects."
That's why I didn't just storm into Floros and snatch Griseo back—
If they can cooperate, they will become an important factor in maintaining the stability of the Solar System.
Unless he can rise above the Emanator and bring the future Solar System under his own Order.
"May I try to transcribe the souls here?"
Misterine suddenly spoke up and asked.
"Um?
They don't have the Stigmata genes, can they really do it?
Upon hearing this question, Gwen was taken aback.
"Having spent so much time with you, I've made some progress, so perhaps... it's worth a try."
Misterine explained.
"Go ahead then, let me know if you need anything."
Gwen nodded and released Misterine from the Stigmata Space.
The Robin, completely unaware of all this, gradually stopped crying, its breathing returned to normal, and it simply fell asleep.
"Well..."
Looking at the beautiful Yu Rong, who looked haggard, Gwen sighed softly and didn't wake her.
However, after a short while, the Robin suddenly awoke, his eyes filled with terror, and only gradually regained his composure after Gwen spoke.
"Sorry, I think I'm just too tired..."
The Robin wiped his slightly moist eyes and stood up before Gwen could speak.
"Gwen, I might need your help to take me back."
There's still a lot to do.
"Yes, just ask if you need anything. There's a lot I can do."
Seeing the girl quickly recover, Gwen smiled and nodded, then stood up and led her away from the ruins.
Gwen said that everything was over, except for the war.
But for the Robin and the people who live here, it's just the beginning.
How can one survivor rebuild their home from the ruins?
Countless questions await the girl and her companions.
Fortunately, outside these ruins, the broken-winged bird still has a sun to warm it...
