Chapter 716: What’s the point of being stronger?

Asakura Lu looked at this scene and felt unhappy. It was not bloody at all for Yue Ji, but it made Xiaolu feel nauseous.

Looking at the dead Fukui Izuku, Asakura Michi couldn't help but ask: "Why did you tell him this? Is there any meaning?"

"Yes, after all, you are just a work of art, so it is difficult to describe all aspects of human nature. Whether it is the structure of society, wealth or poverty, there are so many things that can be discussed.

But you guys are asking for too much. It's clearly the power of the entire universe, but it covers so little content. I don't quite understand, or I'm confused. For example, if you had directly dealt with Fushigi Izumi K in the beginning, wouldn't things have been much simpler?

But the script doesn't allow you to do that. It forces you to grow. The ultimate goal of the work is to describe the story or convey something. But reality is different. It is more decisive than the story. I find Fukui De K's childish remarks a little ridiculous."

Yue Ji sighed and then continued.

"Because your scripts always avoid the truth: the 'growth' of most people is nothing more than a compromise with the edges worn away by reality, and the obsession of the 'villain' is often closer to the essence of human nature than the justice of the protagonist."

When the red light of the police lights climbed up the high walls of the ruins, Yue Ji had already turned and walked towards the shadows.

In a trance, he felt that he had walked a very long way. Everything around him was like a movie. There was a serious sense of unreality, as if there was a veil separating him from the world.

Yue Ji was very aware that he had many problems and must have serious mental problems. He had been suppressing all of this with resentment, using the desire to survive and stay alive to suppress his meaningless crying.

Therefore, he must continue to rise and climb until he reaches his own end.

This aura made Asakuraji hold his breath, and he followed Shangyue Ji...

A week passed quickly, and a long time had passed to repair Yue Ji, but Zero felt something was wrong. Even though he and Yue Ji were one body, the other party's lifespan was still declining, and his injuries would become more serious.

Even my own body is affected by this, which is really hard to explain.

During this time, Asakura Michiya listened to Yue Ji's experiences. He wrote them all down using the technology of the Kingdom of Light. Compared to Yue Ji's reserved speeches in the Kingdom of Light before, he spoke more late at night and the details were clearer.

Many times he would cry while listening, and he could not understand why the person in front of him could say such things so calmly. What was even worse was that many Yue Ji were not even as good as him.

What kind of hell would that be?!

Asakura Lu suddenly realized that when Yue Ji was telling the tragedies, his right hand was always on the Evolution Truster, just like a drowning person grasping the last straw, even though he knew it was sinking with him.

Occasionally, Zero proposed to exchange training with Yue Ji. After all, this would help the growth of several people. However, Yue Ji refused at this time. During this period of time, he just ate and saw the scenery. What he did was not much different from that of an old man who was about to leave the world.

Yue Ji had no idea about becoming stronger.

When Cero asked in confusion, he gave another answer.

"What's the point of being stronger? Can you change the reality of human nature? Can you solve the culprit of all this? Becoming stronger can indeed solve some problems, but some people spend their entire lives trying to become stronger, but in the end they lose to fate.

Some people live a life of luxury and enjoy their talents. They ruin other people's lives and finally leave with peace of mind. This is the reality. For me, becoming stronger has no meaning anymore.

During this last period of time, I want to see more colorful scenery. I hope that when I leave, the world in front of me will still be full of vitality. "

As dusk spread over the rooftop, his shadow became long and thin, like a string that was about to break.

In the distance, chimneys in the old city were emitting smoke. The warm yellow mist made his throat tighten - for a bowl of wonton noodles costing six yuan, the proprietress always gave him half a spoonful of dried shrimps. The oil beads condensed on the edge of the bowl would reflect a rainbow in the morning light.

Today, the noodle shop has become a glass-walled bank, and only the old man sweeping the floor in the early morning will sweep up the scattered chopped green onions on the street corner.

“When I was a kid, I loved the wonton noodle shop near my home and would go there every morning to eat… Although the decoration was simple, I could always eat a full stomach with the six-yuan noodles and not go hungry.

Look..." He pointed toward the old town.

“It is the intersection of the times. My heart is left in the past with rhyme, forever between those small games and the old town. It is those animations that taught me the correct three views.

It is those foods that tell me what the brief happiness in life is... For me, eating instant noodles at home alone on weekends and watching movies that I have seen countless times is already very happy..."

Asakura followed Yue Ji's hand and looked over. People were still alive, doing what they were supposed to do, and the place was filled with the smell of worldly lights.

Yue Ji watched all this with fascination, and his sad expression was even more heartbreaking.

"This is what you protect... the lights of trillions of homes..."

The wind on the rooftop suddenly turned cold, rustling the hem of Yue Ji's coat. In the distance came the bang of an old-fashioned popcorn machine.

In that muffled sound, he seemed to see his twelve-year-old self again, holding a crumpled five-yuan note, standing on tiptoe and looking around in the steaming heat of the noodle shop. But now, he only had a little time left, and even a bowl of hot wonton noodles had become a yesterday that he could never reach.

Asakura Lu wanted to say something, but he saw Yue Ji raising his hand to catch a fallen leaf. The yellowed sycamore leaf rested in his palm, with dew still condensed between the veins, just like the last transparent tear in his life that was about to dry up.

"It seems that I have to return to reality early. Although no one is waiting for me, I still miss you. Even if my hands can't write and the keyboard can't type, I will find a way to write a novel to record everything.

In this way, you will be remembered and your existence will have meaning."

Yue Ji smiled, he took out his Ultraman Zero glasses and transformed into the so-called Giant of Light.

During this process, Cerro didn't say a word. He was silent, but sighed from time to time.

As Zero summoned the ultimate armor, he also traveled to the universe where the passage was located.

Looking at Noah at the bottom of the passage, Yue Ji was stunned, but the next moment something strange happened.

Noah suddenly disappeared, and the Evolution Truster in Yue Ji's hand also returned to its original shape from stone. The Aos and monsters wanted to welcome Yue Ji himself, but when they found that Yue Ji was looking at the Evolution Truster in silence, they all shut up.

In the last moment, Yue Ji said goodbye to Cerro. After transforming into a faint light, he rushed into the boundless passage and embarked on the journey home.

But this can also be said to be how everything started.
