Gundam Seed: Final Destination Chapter 648: : It’s free, basically all the original content, you can watch it or not.
Zhen borrowed a motorcycle from the base and rode to the coastal road.
The oncoming wind, the sense of speed, and the sound of the engine brought sensual comfort, and he could focus only on the road, regardless of the roadside scenery.
Normally, he would throw away unnecessary distracting thoughts and worries at this moment, allowing himself to relax at this moment.
But now, all kinds of thoughts are spinning in his mind, but he can't find an outlet.
The truths he learned yesterday when he was interviewed by the speaker made him feel powerless and empty.
I am fighting a man-made war.
He never thought that war would bring benefits to people, because once there is war, not only weapons, but all people and things will be destroyed and lost, including houses, factories, roads or Power plants, cities and villages, and life.
That should be an inestimable loss.
However, Zhen Asuka remembered what he had taught in school—what if loss is interpreted as consumption?
Expanding consumption will have economic effects.
What was lost has to be recreated, which can make a lot of money.
Everything can be reproduced except life.
——Think about it for yourself, why do we still need power?
Suddenly, the girl's resentful cry sounded in her head.
Zhen Asuka suddenly realized.
That's what Cagalli said to the speaker.
Why do people have to make weapons for killing people? It turns out that she once asked so straightforwardly, but the words that sounded like hypocrisy at the time made him feel a little heartache now.
――Killing because you were killed, and being killed because you killed someone, can you really get peace in the end...?
That's what Aslan said.
He doesn't understand, he doesn't understand what to do to make the world peaceful.
Now that the enemy is coming, of course we have to fight - Zhen Asuka has always had this kind of concept.
Now he knows that this is tantamount to winning the hearts of those death merchants, because those who jumped out to ask everyone to fight against the enemy are those instigators.
So, how does peace begin?
——Do not invade other countries, do not allow other countries to invade, and do not intervene in other countries' disputes.
Orb, who refused to fight to the last moment, still lost peace.
He doesn't understand.
If he knew where those LOGOS guys were hiding, he would definitely kill them immediately.
He wants to let them know how much pain the people who have been "consumed" feel.
But I'm afraid it's not that simple, even the Speaker said it's not easy.
When I came to the top of a sea cliff, I really stopped the motorcycle.
The waves beat against the cliff, and towering and strange rocks are dotted on the sea surface, with a wide view and spectacular scenery.
He took off his helmet and let the sea breeze blow through his slightly sweaty hair, feeling the silence coming from all directions, and a feeling of being isolated from the outside world spontaneously emerged.
There are faint singing of seabirds in the distance.
Among the sound of the waves, there is a thin singing voice floating with the wind.
Zhen Asuka looked where the sound came from.
He saw a girl singing and dancing.
Her blond hair looked so soft, and her white skirt fluttered lightly in the wind.
On the top of another cliff not far away, the girl raised her slender arms high and happily danced around in circles. Although her footsteps were random, they were full of vivid joy and beauty.
Zhen Asuka was fascinated.
The world is obviously so beautiful...
For some reason, Zhen's chest tightened, and he turned his gaze to the sea, and sighed.
"Ah..."
Hearing a small cry, he inadvertently looked back at the girl, only to find that in the blink of an eye, the girl's figure disappeared from the cliff and then the sound of water came from below.
"What about people?"
Zhen Asuka thought of the scream just now, hurriedly dropped the motorcycle and ran to the place where the girl was just now.
While looking for a way along the stone gap.
Until he reached the front of the cliff, he finally saw the little golden head among the waves.
"This is too outrageous? Did it fall?"
Zhen Asuka leaned out from the cliff in astonishment, and saw the girl struggling desperately in the sea, but the waves still beat her head over her head.
Then, she didn't float up again.
"This...can't swim and come to the beach to play?"
After a short moment of astonishment, Zhen Asuka hurriedly took off his shirt and jumped down without hesitation. After a second of blankness, the sea surface hit him like a bite.
He surfaced first, and dived towards the sea surface where the girl disappeared last, and soon saw her figure sinking gradually.
Zhen Asuka struggled to pull the water forward, reaching out to grab the girl's body, then picked her up by the waist, and swam to the surface of the water.
The girl's hands and feet were kicking and scratching at his face and legs, but he didn't have time for pain right now.
It didn't take long for the two of them to surface.
The girl was terrified, and she waved her hands to catch Zhen.
She is not as strong as a girl.
Being caught by her, Zhen Feiniao was almost dragged into the water again.
"Damn! Calm down!"
Tasting the saltiness of the sea water, Zhen Asuka still tried to tell her, but the girl didn't care at all, and still struggled hard, Zhen Zhen's face was scratched by her nails.
This will not work. Zhen had no choice but to let her go first, dive into the water again, then go around behind the girl, hold her firmly with one hand from behind, so that she couldn't move around, and then brought her back to the surface.
Supporting the girl who finally stopped moving, Zhen then smoothly swam to a shoal.
With his support, the girl staggered up the beach, coughing from time to time.
She wanted to walk to the rock, but probably her feet were cramped or she was tired from struggling. She accidentally fell and sat in the shallow water without even uttering a cry.
The cheek that was scratched by her just now began to tingle.
Zhen Asuka couldn't help yelling for a moment: "You want to die! Idiot!"
The girl shrank back in horror.
"You can't even swim, yet you dare to run around in that kind of place! Why are you in a daze..."
Zhen Asuka cursed intently, feeling that something was wrong with the girl's reaction, when she looked up, she saw that her lips were blue and her whole body was trembling.
"Ah... ah... don't..."
She backed away in horror, muttering words with her discolored lips.
"Die...don't..."
"What...?"
Zhen Asuka moved his face towards him in puzzlement and impatiently.
Seeing him approaching, the girl jumped up.
"Don't!"
She stepped on the shallow water and ran out, as if fleeing from reality.
"What are you doing? Ah, hey! Wait a minute! What's wrong...?"
I was really dumbfounded by her actions, I could only stand there and watch as I tripped over the water, got up again, stumbled and fled.
"Don't... I don't want to die...! It's terrible!"
"No, I told you to wait a moment! Why are you running!"
She, who had just recovered her life, fled to the sea again.
Zhen Asuka had no choice but to rush over to stop her, otherwise if she drowned in front of him again, wouldn't he have to go down to catch her again?
Feeling the sting on his face, Asuka hurried over.
However, the girl desperately twisted her body to prevent him from grabbing her, and kept screaming.
"I will die! If I get shot by a gun, I will die!"
Who is this girl? —— Zhen Asuka was startled.
A flash, the real face was hit by the girl's elbow firmly, making him feel blank for a moment, and the smell of blood spread in his mouth.
The feeling at this moment is like the white light that burned the parents and sister to death.
"No! No, no..."
The girl staggered in the shallows, and fell down again after a few steps.
"It's scary... I'm so afraid of death—!"
Zhi · Asuka quickly hugged her body.
"Okay, I understand! Don't worry, you won't die!"
Those thin shoulders trembled again. Hug her really tightly. Trying to appease her emotions:
"Don't be afraid! I will... I will protect you!"
As soon as these words came out, the girl's stiff body slowly relaxed, and the real Asuka's face was reflected in the big purple eyes.
Tears welled up in her eyes, and she burst into tears like a young child.
"Sorry...it's all my fault."
Zhen Asuka tried to keep her voice down as much as possible, trying to comfort her.
"...Really, I'm sorry... It's okay, don't cry... okay?"
The girl clings to Zhenzhen, still crying loudly.
This girl must have encountered terrible things before, maybe it was around the time of the Great War.
Zhen Asuka has heard people say that many people have been traumatized by the war, and it has been difficult to recover.
Such a poor girl, and she almost lost her life just now, but he was so fierce to her, afraid that she would be so frightened.
Zhen Asuka felt a little guilty for a while.
"Don't be afraid...don't be afraid. You will be fine..."
He said softly, staring intently at the girl's face.
"I will protect you..."
The girl still looked up at Zhen in horror, her purple eyes were wet with tears, but they exuded a pure and flawless light, as brilliant as jewels.
Such a fragile and slender beauty made Zhen Asuka speechless for a moment.
"Protect... me...?"
Intermittently, the girl repeated this sentence.
"Yeah."
Zhen Asuka said firmly, with a holy heart.
"So...you don't have to be afraid anymore. You won't die, definitely not...!"
Making this kind of promise may seem like nonsense, there is no one in this world who will not die.
However, at this moment, Zhen Asuka also missed what he said.
He secretly swore that he was willing to use everything he had to protect this life that seemed to disappear at any time.
The girl took the real hand with both hands, and put it on her fair cheek, as if to confirm the feeling.
"Protect...?"
Feeling her delicate and warm skin in the palm of his hand, he really smiled at her.
"Hmm... protection."
The girl closed her eyes intoxicated, her expression gradually becoming serene. Watching her expression change with breathless concentration, I was so moved that I wanted to cry.
There is a feeling that is filling his heart, and it is filling up bit by bit. What's this……?
The two returned to the shore and walked to the rocks.
I don't know whether it's because of the cold or still fear, the girl kept shaking.
Zhen took out a handkerchief and wrung it dry, and wiped her dripping hair.
"Are you okay? Is it cold? Ah."
He found that the girl's ankle was bleeding, so he quickly squatted down.
"Have you been cut by a stone...does it hurt?"
When he really asked her, she didn't answer as if letting him decide. She just looked at him with an innocent expression. A desire to protect really aroused in my heart. Right now, I am the only one who can protect this girl.
He wrung out the handkerchief again, pressed it against the still bleeding wound, and tied it up. After finishing the first aid, I stood up and looked around.
"However, what do we do now...?"
This is a small fjord rocky shore, where they are surrounded by screen-like cliffs on both sides, the cliffs are more than ninety degrees, even if he is an adjuster, it is difficult for him to climb up by hand.
Walking along this rocky land, I was blocked by a cliff after a while, and there was no other way to go around the cliff. It seems that I have to swim to the sea again and find another place to go ashore?
"But this girl can't swim..."
The girl's innocent eyes followed Zhen, as if she didn't notice the situation they were in.
Zhen smiled at her so that she would not panic for no reason, and then pulled out the necklace hanging around his neck.
At the lower end of the chain is his identification tag and a small emergency transmitter, which can be used to report his location when he encounters emergency in battle or other occasions.
"I don't know how I will be scolded at that time... Hey, never mind."
Really fold the transmitter in half. In fact, this thing can only be used in real emergency situations, but at least he really can't return to the team on his own right now. The signal may be unstable in the neutron interference environment, but it should still be able to reach the mothership parked at the base of Diokia, right?
The only thing left to do is to wait.
Zhen looked to the back of the stone field, there seemed to be a small cave there, it doesn't matter if there is nothing else, at least it can shelter from the wind.
Looking at Zhenna walking around, the girl's eyes are still so innocent.
Stella gazed at the dancing flames. After falling into the sea, the boy who rescued her ran to pick up driftwood, and then made this fire.
The fire kept burning, occasionally jumping out of incredible blue and green light.
A boy can do many things well, he can swim and make a fire.
He tied a piece of cloth on Stella's wound, and the wound stopped bleeding, just like a doctor in a research institute.
Moreover, he also said that he wanted to protect Stella.
They took off their clothes and spread them out by the fire to dry.
Just like when she was with Stink and the others, Stella also took off her dress, but for some reason, when the boy saw that she was only wearing shorts, he blushed and turned away from her.
"Do you... live here?"
They sat back to back, the boy asked.
She touched his skin, and the heat came over her.
"What's the name?... Do you understand me?"
He spoke slowly and gently. She can understand this.
"Name... Stella. Live, don't know."
There was a trace of confusion in the boy's voice.
"Then, who do you usually hang out with? Where are your parents?"
"'Together' is... Orr, Sting, Praia, Niya... Mom and Dad... don't know."
Hearing Stella's answer, the boy's voice became sad.
"...I see. Then you must have encountered terrible things, haven't you?"
"'Scary'?"
Stella looked at the boy in panic.
In fact, she is still afraid.
From the time she heard the word "death", she would be afraid until she fell asleep.
The young man turned his head nervously: "Ah, I'm sorry. Don't be afraid now! I will—well, this, I will stay here to protect you, and I won't leave."
Hearing what he said, her heart suddenly lit up warmly.
"Protect Stella?... I won't die?"
"Well! Don't worry, you won't die!"
The boy looked straight into Stella's eyes and said. Seeing his eyes, Stella's heart skipped a beat.
It's amazing. When she was first scolded by him, Stella thought he was terrible, and his eyeballs were as red as fire, and he said the word Stella hated.
But he hugged her again later, and said to her: Stella will not die. He will protect her.
Protecting her didn't know what that meant before, but now she does.
Protection means that she will not die, it is so warm and gentle, just like the feeling she felt when she was hugged tightly by a teenager.
"Ah, my name is true."
The boy suddenly remembered and said, "My name is Zhen Asuka. Do you know?"
"Really...?"
Stella recited it in a low voice. The boy——smiled as if he was very happy.
"Yes, really. Do you remember?"
Seeing the real smiling face, Stella's heart jumped again.
Incredible.
Although it is a bit like "scary", it is light and comfortable.
Zhen Asuka is so wonderful, she likes it. She also likes Orr and Sting, but it's a little different from that kind of liking.
"Really..."
She read the name carefully.
Stella suddenly thought of something, stood up and ran to the open clothes.
She searched in the pocket of her skirt and found that hard and cold thing.
This pale pink shell is the treasure she picked up on the beach this morning.
She took the shell and turned around, only to realize that she was originally looking here, but now she suddenly turned her head to look to the side as if frightened.
Stella walked towards him and said "come",
Give him the shell in your palm.
"Huh, this?"
Zhen raised his head to look at Stella's face, and immediately looked away in a panic, asking, "Is it for me?"
Zhen Asuka accepted the shell, and this time he looked into Stella's eyes and smiled.
"...Thank you."
Stella is very happy, she feels more and more like Zhen.
She sat down beside him, leaning on his shoulder at first, but he shyly carried her back.
Stella doesn't understand him, so what's the difference? Turn around to see his face!
However, as long as you touch his back, you will feel the warmth of his body.
Stella just watched the firelight silently for a while.
After a while, they put on their clothes.
The skirt was still wet and uncomfortable to wear, but after putting on the clothes, Zhencai finally turned his face.
"This... I think someone will come soon. Don't worry."
Stella was so happy to see the real face, she just smiled.
She is no longer afraid.
As long as she is really by her side, Stella doesn't have to be afraid of anything.
Stella rested her head on Ju's shoulder, and silence surrounded them.
For the first time since birth, Stella felt this way.
I don't know how long I sat like this, the sound of the engine gradually came from the sound of the waves, approaching from far away.
"Here we come!"
Zhen stood up, ran to the hole and poked his head out.
Suddenly, a blinding white light came in from outside.
Zhen jumped onto the stone floor outside the cave, and shouted loudly to someone.
The sound of engines at sea is getting louder.
"Send me an emergency signal while you're on vacation. If you don't have an accident, you will be yourself. If an accident happens, it will be a big deal!"
"Captain!"
The man spoke to Zhen, and Zhen also called out to him.
Stella was a little uneasy, so she stood up and walked towards the entrance of the cave.
She saw a small boat parked on the other side of the shoal, and a figure standing at the bow was talking to Zhen.
The searchlight was bright and dazzling, and she couldn't see clearly because the man was behind the light.
"How could something happen to you in this kind of place?"
"How can I? I didn't have an accident! I just encountered..."
Stella sneaked up to her, trying to hide behind Zhen Zhen. Halfway through the conversation with the people on the boat, Zhen turned her head when she saw her running, and gently held Stella's hand.
Stella calmed down a little. When talking to the strangers on the boat, she seemed to be a different person suddenly, and she was afraid that the original one had really disappeared.
Not long after, the boat put down a rubber boat and carried Zhen and Stella to the boat.
The people on the boat brought a blanket, and really wrapped it around Stella's body lightly. Stella was afraid of those people she didn't know, so she clung to Zhen's side.
"This girl fell from a cliff into the sea... I rescued her and swam here, and she got trapped..."
Hearing the real explanation, the person who spoke to him just now turned to look at Stella.
"Does she live in Diokia?"
That person was wearing a red uniform, his black hair was blown by the sea breeze, he was still very young, he looked about the same age as Stink and the others.
"No, she didn't make it clear..."
Zhen slightly lowered his voice, and replied to the man: "Maybe her parents died in the war... I guess she may have suffered a lot."
"That's it..."
The man understood, and glanced at Stella again.
The two of them chatted for a while, but Stella couldn't quite understand her, so she couldn't help but curled up under the blanket and got closer to the truth.
"...Since we only know her name, we have no choice but to take her to the base and ask them to investigate her identity."
After the man in red finished speaking worriedly, he turned back and faced forward.
The boat sailed quickly on the dark sea.
Just then, Stella heard a familiar voice amidst the sound of the engine.
"...Stella—!"
Stella suddenly turned her head in the direction of the sound, and saw two small figures on the cliff. no
After dark, she could only see the shadow.
It's Sting and Al, they're looking for Stella.
Stella looked at the shore wholeheartedly, and asked her in a hurry: "I'm afraid it's impossible from here."
The man in the red dress sat in front, looked up at the cliff, and said:
"I can only go back to the base first, so drive faster!"
It has been more than an hour since the sun went down. Sting slowed down and searched along the coastal road, feeling more and more anxious.
Nothing could be seen on the sea surface, but Al, who was sitting next to him, was still looking at the coastline, his eyes wide open.
"...Really! That big idiot!"
Stink has heard Orr's curse no less than a dozen times.
It's rare to say that because of the injury, Prea asked the three of them to take a vacation, and said that they can do whatever they want in such an urban area.
Actually, it couldn't be said to be rare, it was unprecedented, so Stella put on her favorite dress and ran to the beach early in the morning.
As long as you just find a place where you can see the sea and drop her, that guy will not get tired of playing for a whole day. Even when they are in space, she can silently watch the fish in the small bottle.
Just because she was that kind of idiot, Sting and Orr really left her at the seaside and let her go without thinking too much.
Unexpectedly, when they came to the beach to pick her up at dusk, they couldn't see her at all, so they had no choice but to look for her everywhere.
"Could it be... a bang... fell?"
Auer spit out sullenly, which angered Sting: "Don't give me a crow! If something happens to Stella, how can we explain it to Praia?"
"But we haven't found it after searching for so long..."
Orr only spoke up to this point and didn't go any further. Although he gave up, his eyes were still staring at the shore to search.
Al is impulsive and sarcastic, but he worries about Stella just as much as Stine.
After all, the three of them are the only partners who can rely on each other, and the only ones of the same kind.
For them, a partner is a special existence.
At least they are the same as themselves.
Even Stella, who has always been extremely desperate for her life, is the same.
Just then, a military vehicle came from the opposite lane.
At the moment of meeting the car, Sting heard someone calling his name in the car, and stepped on the brakes quickly.
"Huh?"
Auer yelled in surprise, and Sting hurriedly shouted to the rear: "Stella!"
The military vehicle also stopped, a few meters away from their car.
Al recognized Stella sitting in the car wrapped in a blanket, and couldn't help muttering in amazement: "Uh, isn't that Zaft's jeep?"
The two glanced at each other immediately, why did Stella sit in the enemy's car?
Sting immediately reversed the car and stopped sharply and hurriedly.
"Stella!"
"Stin!"
Stella happily jumped out of the car, and quickly ran to Stink who got out of the car. She didn't seem to be injured or detained.
Al walked around the car and walked behind Stink and whispered, "Hey, don't mess around, that's Zaft's red coat, it's very troublesome to kill."
Just as Siding was about to speak, he looked at the figures coming out of the jeep, and saw one of them was wearing casual clothes, and the other was wearing a red uniform symbolizing elites.
Stella ran over to hug him, but she smelled of sea water all over her body, so Sting asked her, "What happened to you?"
"She fell into the sea."
The boy in plain clothes came over and answered for her.
He stood behind Stella, smiling very kindly.
"I just saw it from the side - but it's good if you come here, we don't know her identity, and we don't know what to do!"
Looking at the red uniform standing behind the young man, Sting guessed that he was about the same age as himself, with the same unwarranted expression on his face as the young man.
From this point of view, they probably didn't find out the real identity of Stella and themselves, maybe they thought she was an ordinary citizen, so they rescued her and sent her by car.
"That's it, I'm really sorry, thank you."
Stein put on a friendly smile to thank him, so that the other party would not notice his nervousness, then glanced sideways, but seeing Orr staring at the red uniform full of hostility, he immediately bumped him with his elbow.
Auer was in pain, and looked away pretending to be serious.
Stein pretended to smile again and said: "I'm really sorry, thanks to everyone in Zaft for taking care of me..."
The two teenagers didn't seem to understand the irony of these words at all.
Their smiles were extremely kind, and they accepted his thanks politely.
"No, don't say that - that's great, Stella, I'm lucky to find your brother."
"Yeah."
Stella nodded vigorously, and the Zaft boy laughed heartily, as if he was really thankful for her.
Suddenly, Sting had a wonderful idea. They are obviously adjusters, so why do they look almost the same as ordinary people?
The military vehicle turned around and came back, stopping beside Zaft's boy.
"Then take your leave."
The boy in red bowed slightly to them and sat in the front seat.
The boy in plain clothes wanted to get into the car, but Stella suddenly ran towards him.
"Really... are you leaving?"
"Huh?...Yes, sorry."
Stella's expression became sad, while the boy looked a little troubled.
"But look... your brother and the others are here, so you don't have to be afraid, right?"
"Hmmm..."
Stella thought for a while, but still looked at the boy reluctantly.
Siding secretly became irritable.
Stella, this guy, has become acquainted with him in just a while!
That guy is an enemy!
But seeing that the boy in the car also seemed to be infected with Stella's emotions, his expression also showed reluctance.
"Uh~IndoMTL.com~ this...we will meet again, definitely..."
"It's time to go, really. Do you hear that?"
The red uniform urged in an officer-like tone.
The car started, and Stella chased after him and ran for two or three steps, and the boy named Huanzhen also leaned out from the car.
"Sorry, Stella! But I will, really... we will see you again! No, I will find you!"
The boy yelled all the way until the car turned the corner and disappeared.
Stella stood on the road in a daze, staring in that direction.
"Really..."
It looked like a puppy abandoned by its owner. Siding got angry when he saw it, so he got into the car by himself.
"I really lost to her! I'm so scared, I can't stand it!"
Al suddenly became cheerful, and sat in the front seat with a shout.
Siding thought in his heart.
See you again - how could this be possible.
If Stella really met that kid again, it must be on the battlefield.
As hostile --
But for some reason, thinking of the conversation and expression between her and him, a trace of irritability, anger, and sadness appeared in his heart inexplicably.
The fire in my heart couldn't go away, but seeing Stella still standing there motionless, Sting couldn't help shouting: "Stella! Hey, we're leaving!"
After a while, Stella walked towards them with a lonely expression.
An unfamiliar handkerchief tied around her ankle caught Sting's attention.
Is it that boy's thing?
Recalling the conversation between the two and Stella's eyes at the end, for some reason, Sting subconsciously prayed that the two of them would never meet again, at least not in this world.
