"Oh, you..."

Lin Wei gave Anna a helpless look, then stretched out his arms and gently took her into his arms.

"Just this once, you hear me?"

"……Um!"

Like a child who had made a mistake and was finally forgiven, Anna hugged Lin Wei's waist tightly, lowered her head, and cried softly.

"I'm sorry, Lin Wei, I'm sorry..."

"In my heart, you are more important to me than anyone else..."

"I don't want to lose you, I don't want to..."

"Ugh……"

Lin Wei looked up at the dark sky, patted Anna's back gently, and smiled helplessly.

"What a jerk I am..."

On the other side, Jier solemnly handed the car to Chen Tianwu and let him test drive it first. After confirming that there was no problem, he nodded and lay on the car body to adjust various parameters.

"Okay, I've marked several routes back to camp from here for you on the built-in navigation system."

Jier pointed to the most central and most different colored road and solemnly reminded,

"This is the path Mr. Lin Wei and I took when we came here. It's probably attracted a lot of Honkai Beasts right now, so you absolutely must avoid it. However, the adjacent areas on both sides will become less densely populated and safer."

"Well, I see."

Since his life and that of his sister were at stake, Chen Tianwu listened very carefully, his eyes fixed on the navigation route, wanting to engrave it firmly in his memory.

"Remember, avoid using bridges if you can. They're likely broken."

Jie Er racked his brains to give as many safety reminders as possible to the teenagers around him.

"But here, here, and here..."

Jie Er kept marking points on the map.

"If you encounter a truly dangerous situation, you can take the risk of leaping at these punctuation points—but don't do it unless it's absolutely necessary, remember?"

"Ok!"

Chen Tianwu memorized every one of her reminders firmly in his mind, and then suddenly remembered something, looked up at Jie Er, and said,

"Ms. Jie'er, could you please do me a favor?"

"You said."

There is nothing wrong with cleaning.

"Please also mark on this map where you will be taking Mr. Lin Wei later, Miss Jie'er."

Chen Tianwu said seriously,

"If I do arrive safely, you can tell your companions the news and let them know where to go to support you!"

"..."

Jie Er was stunned for a moment, then smiled and rubbed his hair, scolding him,

"You guy..."

Then, she gently entered a location into the map, looked at Chen Tianwu, and said solemnly,

"Don't die."

"Thank you, I will. After all, my life is very valuable!"

Chen Tianwu smiled frivolously.

"Tsk..."

Jie Er gave him a blank look and handed the two helmets to Chen Tianwu and his sister. Then, after thinking for a while, she took off her communicator, turned it on and operated it for a few times, then put it on Chen Tianwu's arm with her own hands and explained,

"This is my communicator. I've already enabled the positioning and assistance functions. It will send out a distress signal at any time... Hehe, the distress signal from the Snow Lotus Squad leader should be quite conspicuous..."

Thinking that as the captain, he would actually "ask for help" from his companions, Jier couldn't help but laugh. After a moment, he continued to explain,

"Although communication has been cut off, if we get close enough, there's a good chance that her distress signal will be received successfully by Lady Rita and my team... At that time, they will do their best to support you."

She knew that the closer they were to the camp, the more concentrated the Honkai beasts would be, and it would be difficult for the young man to break through alone.

"Well, thank you!"

Chen Tianwu carefully touched the communicator which was still warm and thanked him sincerely.

"You're welcome. That's all I can do."

Jier sighed and patted his shoulder gently, then touched the little girl's hair lovingly, took a deep breath, smiled and said goodbye.

"It's getting late, take care."

"Well, take care of yourself too."

The boy nodded calmly.

"Goodbye, Sister Jie'er!"

The little girl smiled and waved.

Jie Er smiled and touched the little girl's hair, then turned and walked towards Lin Wei.

"Is the conflict resolved?"

"Well, let's leave it at that for now. We don't have time. We can talk about it later if there's anything else."

Lin Wei raised his hand and released the aircraft.

"Let's go!"

After the three boarded the aircraft, they waved goodbye to the Chen brothers and sisters, then took off from the ground and disappeared into the distance.

The brother and sister looked at the aircraft flying away quickly, and reluctantly put down their arms, and were silent for a while.

"Wenwen, will you blame your brother?"

Chen Tianwu was the first to break the awkward silence.

"No wonder."

The little girl shook her head and smiled like an adult.

"Sister Anna is a hero, Brother Lin Wei is a hero, and you are a hero too."

"No one in this world wants to be a hero..."

The boy shook his head and took his sister into his arms with some heartache.

"Wenwen, are you scared?"

"……afraid."

The little girl pressed her mouth and nose against her brother's chest, as if to hide her true voice.

"But, with my brother here, I'm not afraid anymore."

"Don't worry, sister, mom and dad will protect us..."

Chen Tianwu gently touched his sister's head and said softly and firmly,

"Brother promises you that he will take you home."

"Ok!"

The little girl nodded quietly.

"It's getting late. Let's go!"

Chen Tianwu got on the motorcycle and held his sister firmly in front of him.

After making sure everything was correct, the boy closed his eyes, took a deep breath, turned the handlebars, and sped away in the opposite direction.

Chapter 203: Tsunami and Sunshine (8,000 words)

God said, "To everyone who has, more will be given; but from him who has not, even what he has left will be taken away."

As a result, the world became cold and cruel.

Fate never favors the weak. Instead, it will use continuous blows to constantly crush your will and break your spine. It makes those who do good discouraged and those who resist helpless. It makes all those who have ideals eventually drown in the abyss called "reality."

He weaves fate into a net, trapping all living beings and making them unable to move.

He makes birds that fly high in the sky fall to the ground, and He makes fish that swim freely eventually be caught in nets; He makes all living things suspicious of each other and devour each other, and the weak will always crawl under the fangs of the strong, waiting to die...

"Oh, just thinking about it makes me sick..."

Lin Wei sneered in response.

“When the first monkey came down from the tree, picked up dry branches from the ground, and threw the first stone at the lion that wanted to kill them, the so-called ‘fate’ could no longer bind them!”

For the individual, its soul is sublimated and freed at that moment;

For the group, its heroic act awakened the will of other companions. They came down from the trees one after another, picked up the stones on the ground, and threw them out like rain.

So, from that moment on, mankind was born...

And when billions of years later, a new and more terrifying threat stands before humanity, intending to turn humanity back into dust once again,

Once again, someone bravely stood up to resist, desperately trying to continue the path forward for humanity.

Just in this small corner of Manila, we can see those Valkyries who fought desperately, those brave men who stood up from the shivering survivors and fought together for survival and tomorrow - such as Chen Tianwu and his sister. They could have remained silent and waited quietly for the final outcome; but they chose to take the initiative to assume responsibilities that did not belong to them, and threw the stone in their hands to fate with a calm smile, not caring at all about what kind of "reward" "fate" would give him next.

So from that moment on, they all became heroes, even though no one knew it;

So from today on, this place will become a place of heroes, even if no one cares about it after today;

But as a witness, Lin Wei actually saw it all with his own eyes along the way, and some people began to place their trust and hope in him;

Gradually, Lin Wei discovered, somewhat to her surprise, that she seemed to have truly become one of them, beginning to be drawn into their joys and sorrows, no longer an unrelated stranger...

……

Thanks to their previous ability to "fly high and see far," this temporary team had a relatively ample window of opportunity to respond. Even though they were delayed for a while due to unexpected disagreements, Lin Wei ultimately arrived at the designated location before the tsunami made landfall.

"Stop! We're here, right here!"

Jie Er, who had been giving Lin Wei directions along the way, suddenly pointed to a place below and explained,

"This is the left bank of the Pasig River. Choosing this location will simultaneously protect the camp behind us and the brother and sister who should have already set out on their journey. It will also effectively prevent the waves from flowing upstream and directly inland, greatly reducing the number of enemies in one direction."

At this point, she shook her head and sighed,

"Before, because too many Honkai beasts crawled up from the river, they caught our Snow Lotus team off guard. We were forced to abandon our initial base and retreat little by little to that gymnasium. Finally, we had nowhere to retreat and were surrounded..."

The Pasig River runs through the entire city of Manila and is considered the city's mother river and main artery.

Once this river becomes a "quick landing channel" for the Honkai beasts, the entire city will be completely submerged by the Honkai beasts crawling out from the long river bank in a very short time.

"You've done a great job, Captain Jier."

Lin Wei comforted her seriously.

"Under such hasty circumstances, being able to persevere and hold on to a corner is already very admirable."

"haha, really?"

Jie Er shook his head and said calmly,

"I hope so."

Lin Wei smiled lightly and said nothing more. He looked at the terrifying huge waves that were close to the coast, almost covering the sky and the sun, and said in amazement,

"It's truly spectacular. What a shame, such magnificent scenes should remain in novels, movies, and games, confined to people's imaginations, and not appear in reality, bringing such catastrophic disasters to people..."

As he spoke, he controlled the aircraft to descend rapidly and landed accurately at the location pointed by Jier. He skillfully dispersed the aircraft. The three of them stepped firmly on the ground, feeling the slight vibration coming from the soles of their feet, like a galloping horse.

"No matter what kind of world it is, it's better if such disasters don't happen..."

Jier shook his head and responded,

"Even if there really are other worlds, the people living there are all the same. No one wants to experience such a terrible thing, such a tragic separation of life and death - like us."
