The Ultimate War Of The Apocalypse-Chapter 648 - 641: Everlasting Life
Chapter 648: Chapter 641: Everlasting Life
Xinghe couldn’t take any further action until she got out of the medical pod, so there was still time.
It seemed that the Serpent People had no further plans, and even Xiang Weiguo had left the core energy vehicle; therefore, Luo Xingyu could also leave her mecha.
Luo Xingyu’s mecha crouched down, and then the chest plate of the mecha flipped upwards. Wearing a tight combat suit, Luo Xingyu looked down as she walked out of the mecha.
The three mechas that had arrived had similar exteriors but different activation methods. Clearly, these were three experimental mechas.
However, the mechas were secondary now. What mattered was the person inside.
Gao Yuan finally embraced Luo Xingyu tightly.
The person he had longed for day and night was always by his side, but it was only at this moment that they could truly hold each other.
"I swore that I would find you, and now I’m here."
Luo Xingyu didn’t cry. She held her head up, looking resolutely at Gao Yuan, and then she spoke with grave seriousness, "I was involved in the entire development process of a mecha type. I personally took part in every test, and when it came time to select mecha fighters, I was the first to sign up, and the first to be chosen—not because of you but because I had the highest comprehensive score."
Gao Yuan smiled, and he stroked Luo Xingyu’s face, saying, "You, a recent high school graduate, were part of such important work in mecha research? You must be bragging."
Luo Xingyu said softly, "High school students have to participate because there’s no one else. Xinghe has provided too much technology, it’s too important, and there’s a shortage of people on every project. Do you know how many technological breakthroughs are integrated into this mecha?"
Actually, Gao Yuan had wanted to talk with Luo Xingyu about their feelings, about the sorrow of parting, and the pain of yearning, but Luo Xingyu pulled him in front of her own mecha, proudly saying, "The shell of this mecha is brand new, so is the power mechanism, and this electromagnetic cannon. The fact that it can fire continuously is an amazing breakthrough in itself, and then there’s this holographic helmet, the transmission mechanism, and more..."
Gao Yuan turned Luo Xingyu around and then he kissed her.
Luo Xingyu’s eyes widened, then she closed her eyes and hugged Gao Yuan again.
Tears began to flow from Luo Xingyu’s eyes.
Surely, this reunion was a good thing, exciting and joyful, but the problem was the deadly spaceship hanging overhead, and in another hour, they would have to fight desperately to carve out a bloody path against the monsters of the Serpent People.
So, was this reunion really a good thing at the time?
Gao Yuan would have preferred Luo Xingyu not to have come, that she quietly continued her studies and research in the underground base rather than being here with him, facing life and death.
Gao Yuan and Luo Xingyu embraced without wanting to let go, holding each other for a long time, neither speaking nor moving.
That was until Xinghe’s voice sounded behind Gao Yuan.
"Should I not have come out so early...?"
Gao Yuan turned around, only to see Xinghe with pursed lips standing behind him, her wounds gone, revealing unblemished skin where her torn clothes had been.
And Xinghe seemed somewhat thinner overall.
"You’re alright?"
Gao Yuan let go of Luo Xingyu, but he held onto her hand.
Well, the situation was a bit awkward now.
Xinghe looked at her own arm and reflected with a hint of emotion, "Our technology hasn’t advanced; rather, it has even regressed. This medical pod is an early product but turns out to be better than what we use now, so... I came out early."
After lowering her arm, Xinghe calmly said, "Should I apologize? Because I interrupted your beautiful reunion. I’m serious, not being sarcastic." ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Gao Yuan was at a loss for words. Luo Xingyu glanced at Gao Yuan and then at Xinghe before she tightened her grip on Gao Yuan’s hand.
Xiang Weiguo’s face underwent a drastic change because this clichéd love triangle wasn’t affecting international relations but interstellar relations.
Just then, Lizhizi suddenly said, "Do you have any spray paint, or even regular paint will do. I want to put a symbol on the Tai Chi. Can someone help, anyone have it?"
Lizhizi, oh Lizhizi, always so observant.
Gao Yuan immediately looked at Lizhizi and asked, "What are you going to spray?"
"A Tai Chi Diagram," she replied.
Gao Yuan looked down at Luo Xingyu, who he was holding, and said, "Do you guys have any spray paint, or even regular paint? Uncle Xiang, do you have any in your vehicle?"
Xiang Weiguo stuttered, "No, uh, we don’t have that. Why would we bring that... So what do we do now?"
Xinghe thought for a moment and then said, "A Tai Chi Diagram, right? Black and white. Hmm, I have an idea."
Xinghe stood still, but her Mecha suddenly came to life, moving behind her like a person, opening up, and then Xinghe stepped into her Mecha.
Xinghe moved in front of Lizhizi’s Mecha and extended her hand, saying, "The philosophy that is uniquely Earth’s own creation, the only one that has influenced the Celestials’ philosophical system. The Tai Chi Diagram, which represents the ultimate state of the universe; does it not seem like a coincidence that the backward humans created the ultimate cosmic symbol? Or is it the convergence of different paths to the same end?"
The sheer amount of information in Xinghe’s words was overwhelming, and while everyone was deeply contemplating the meaning of her speech, Xinghe drew a circle in front of Lizhizi’s Mecha. Sparks of electricity flickered over her outstretched fingers. The Mecha’s black color was its natural metallic shade, but under Xinghe’s hands, it turned into a shiny silver.
A complete Tai Chi Diagram appeared on the Mecha, not a Bagua but a simple Tai Chi Diagram.
The intermingling Yin-Yang Fish came to life, the black Yin fish had a bright silver spot, and the hole punched by an armor-piercing round became the black spot on the silver Yang fish.
Yin reaches its limit and gives rise to Yang, Yang reaches its limit and gives rise to Yin, an endless cycle, this is the essence of Tai Chi.
Lizhizi stood looking at her Mecha, motionless, as did Xinghe, who had just drawn the standard Tai Chi Diagram by hand, also stood motionless for a long time.
Finally, Xinghe whispered softly, "An endless cycle, an endless cycle... Who can know if Earth, in its moment of peril, was not the cradle of rebirth, and has now found its opportunity to enter the cosmos?"
No one wanted to disturb Xinghe, nor did anyone dare to.
Eventually, Xinghe lowered her hand, turned around, and looked at Gao Yuan, saying, "Just now, I combined the Ark of the Covenant with Revelation, using the energy from the medical pod to enhance the communicator’s search capabilities, but found nothing."
The good news that Gao Yuan had kept in mind, hoped for, and longed for did not come.
Was the Ark ultimately impossible to find, or was the Ark simply not on Earth at all?
Xinghe waved her hand dismissively and said softly, "So the medical pod is useless now. It’s just a medical pod. I know that’s bad news, but the good news is, I just checked and found out from which Shenzhou ship the Serpent People’s mothership originated, which means the situation on Shenzhou should improve."
Gao Yuan had thought the Serpent People would move the mothership above America to here, but since it came from Shenzhou, that was definitely good news.
After finishing, Xinghe raised her head to look at the ships in the sky and then shouted, "If there’s nothing else, let’s get started. Before the Serpent People’s mothership arrives, let’s settle the matters here."
