Collapse Iron: The Five Heroes of the Clouds Won't Let Me Go
Chapter 72 A Trivial Tragedy
The universe is vast, and it seems there is no end to exploring it.
Yalilo-VI is not a strange planet; it is just an unremarkable peripheral planet.
Even if it explodes, is destroyed, or disappears one day, it may not become the topic of conversation for others.
Only after Igor made a name for himself in the company's competitions did he receive a negligible allocation of business resources from the company.
But Igor didn't want fame or fortune.
What he wanted was to save his homeland!
Igor, who had won on the training ground, did not cheer; he simply removed the nameplate from his neck and shouted:
"I am Igor! Igor from Yalilo-VI!"
He shouted with all his might, wanting more people to remember his name!
It's not his name, but his hometown!
After the game, company reporters came backstage for interviews, and many of his fans cheered for him.
The interview was broadcast live, and many people got to know this boxing champion and tough guy through the screen.
Igor refused the prize money and awards offered in the competition.
"Please give me some time! I'll give you this prize money in exchange!"
Igor then began to tell his story in front of the crowd and the cameras.
From leaving my hometown to making a name for myself, and finally standing here today.
"My story is simple! But my hometown is not a story! It is truly in peril!"
"The pawns of destruction—the antimatter legion—are invading my homeland. Every second I stand here, my compatriots bleed and die!"
"I am saying this simply to inform everyone that the antimatter legion is not to be underestimated! Their destructive power and aggressiveness are immense! And they have already begun to spread like a plague! Friends from all worlds, please be vigilant!"
"I came here to participate in the martial arts competition, not for fame or fortune! I seek the help of friends from all over the world! I hope that friends with a will to protect my homeland can help! Whether or not we can save her, we will always regard you as a hero!"
His impassioned words were inspiring, and the tragic plight of his hometown also evoked sympathy.
But just like in Pierpoint, his words served no purpose other than helping the company better package itself as a victim to attract traffic.
Without profit or benefit, no one would be foolish enough to become a hero.
Or perhaps you have indeed brought your hometown into the view of a small number of people for a short time, but so what?
In this endless universe, there are countless planets similar to your home, and countless others have suffered tragedies or even been destroyed.
There are heroes in this world, but their numbers are not enough to cover so many tragic worlds.
The cruelty that unfolded in Arillow-VI was merely an insignificant drama in this vast starry sky.
However, Igor was not surprised; his hopes had been completely extinguished by the capital of the interstellar "Peace" company.
The people who come to him either want him to endorse their products or want to hear more about his experiences.
As for his hometown, it was nothing more than a cheap glass ball that nobody cared about.
But Igor still had one last glimmer of hope: the fairy ship that called itself "Ren"!
This was advice he received from a tech tycoon through a huge opportunity: to seek help from the Immortal Ship!
That's why he participated in this martial arts ceremony, just to gain more attention.
The Immortal Boat Alliance is powerful and influential. If we can obtain its help, the crisis of Yalilo-VI can definitely be resolved!
Therefore, Igor must fight! He must win! And then he must reach out to those with influence within the Immortal Ship!
Jingyuan, who was watching the live broadcast on Yuzhao during Igor's speech, listened silently to his words.
This man carries the weight of the entire world on his shoulders!
From his experience, Jingyuan understood the perseverance and indomitable spirit of ordinary people climbing the ladder of success!
He did it, and he never forgot his original aspiration, always keeping the safety of his hometown in mind.
Given his size, he could easily have stayed in the interstellar community and received good treatment at the company.
But he didn't; his eyes were full of life! He would definitely go back! Back to his hometown!
This is what Jing Yuan admires. The Immortal Boat family is large and powerful. Although the enemy is even more terrifying, at least they still have a chance to catch their breath.
But this Igor was probably troubled by the war in his hometown every minute and every second, driven by the mission he was carrying, and dared not stop his pursuit of help for a moment!
"Uncle-Master! Let's pay more attention to this Igor!"
"What? Are you curious about him?"
"No, I admire him! I want to learn from his resilience and optimism. Although it's somewhat idealistic, isn't hope itself idealism?"
"Heh, let's see if he can walk up to you and show you his fist!"
The martial arts ceremony passed quickly, but for Cheng Xiao, it was a good performance.
Igor certainly lived up to expectations, overcoming all obstacles to win the championship!
This time, the championship is no longer about disputes over interests, but a ticket to a face-to-face meeting with Xianzhou.
Cheng Xiao stood in the stands admiring the young man; he truly possessed a will that ordinary people did not have!
A wisp of cold air gently crept into Cheng Xiao's sleeve, and Jing Liu appeared beside him without him noticing.
"You're here? Jingyuan said you'd come; it seems you weren't lying to her."
"Of course I came to see if my disciple has failed to live up to my teachings. Besides, I haven't seen you in a long time, so I came to talk to you."
"Is the food good in the army?"
"In terms of taste, it is naturally not as good as yours, but it is enough to satisfy the appetite."
"I heard those nameless guests from Falken brought you gifts again?"
"Just some sake, but it's quite pleasant. Those nameless guests are free and easy, and sometimes I envy them."
"Haha, alright, alright, let's see how Jingyuan deals with the enemy!"
Jing Liu observed for a while, then shook his head and sighed: "Although Jing Yuan has fought alongside me in the field, he is still lacking. That kid carries a heavy burden in his eyes; it's hard for him to fall."
Igor and Jingyuan met formally and exchanged pleasantries.
Igor: "Jingyuan Xiaowei! Please enlighten me!"
Jingyuan: "I also ask for your guidance. Don't go easy on me just because I'm a woman."
Igor nodded. He had never underestimated Jing Yuan. As a leader of the Immortal Ship, he couldn't possibly be weak.
The duel between the two began. Jing Yuan used a sword, while Igor still used his fists.
Jingyuan did not use the sword techniques of the Jingliu School, nor did she use any extraordinary martial arts. She simply used her sword and physical abilities to engage in a direct contest with Igor!
Igor simply kept throwing punches in silence, and for a time he and Jingyuan were evenly matched.
Igor's fists were heavy; each punch seemed to carry the weight of a world, reflecting his unwavering will and belief. He could not fall easily!
