Marvelous Mecha

Chapter 1217: A Brief Retrospect


"A 50% chance isn't too bad. Ah, let's leave it at that."

"But what should we do next?"

"Play games, and do serious business after gaming."

Eggy propped its chin: "Why play games first and not deal with the serious business first?"

"Uh...well..." Feng Yi habitually propped his chin, "As for why...speaking of which, what are we supposed to do again?"

"Huh?"

Eggy quickly shook its head to indicate it didn't know either. At least the current Eggy was starting to worry inexplicably about Feng Yi's future. As Eggy would say, there's a tough question right in front of you. You say you've died and then scared people by rising from the grave. What will you do in the future? What will you eat and drink? Your identity has been canceled; who wouldn't recognize you if you begged for food on the streets?

Upon hearing this, Feng Yi also felt troubled, as if he had just realized his predicament. He didn't have any money, wasn't skilled at begging, and wondered if it was better to quit early. He could never work in his life.

Thinking it over, the topic returned to the main storyline—human prospects.

Both sides fell into a brief silence, perhaps half a second, maybe a few minutes. Shortly after that, through special abilities, Feng Yi once again found the Titan Elf Queen, Elysis, and conveyed his personal intention and the determination to resist to the end on behalf of humanity.

The gist was that there were currently only two paths to choose from: either peace on earth or nuclear peace.

At this moment, Elysis had already solicited the opinions of many queens among the Titan Elf Clan. Specifically, ever since Elysis, the Black Wing Queen, spoke about Feng Yi's unique and terrifying unknown abilities, the Titan Elves had been forced to reconsider their stance with humanity, but they still hadn't given a clear response.

After all, war is not a game; it won't change because of one person, one sentence, or one threatening letter. Ambiguous and inconsistent behavior will always be the tactic of politicians, even among different species.

Through brief communication, Feng Yi determined at least one thing: the Titan Elves were becoming increasingly wary of humans. Any change in their gaze was not unnoticed by Feng Yi's keen observation.

Just after leaving, and with the Third Rhythm rules in effect, Feng Yi immediately arrived at the presidential office of the Eden district on Earth. The only difference was that besides Adams, there were other officials he did and didn't recognize.

"Yo, old man."

Waving in a greeting, Feng Yi's voice was very light, almost penetrating, causing the whole room to suddenly fall into a bizarre silence.

Looking again, the newcomer stood quietly against the wall, somewhat aloof. His extraordinarily handsome face carried a hint of laziness, his eyes warm yet containing a light that seemed to pierce everything—extraordinary Feng Yi.

When the people present saw him, two of them fainted on the spot, and the rest were overjoyed, while many young girls and boys couldn't stop trembling...

—He! The great battle mentor, one of humanity's three heroes, hailed as the unbeatable myth of the Revenge Shadow Rider! Just appearing openly in front of everyone like this? This feeling that spurs endless imagination cannot be described with any better words.

"Feng, Feng Yi...? You kid..."

Though Greedy Wolf had seen Feng Yi in Heavenly Communication, talking face-to-face felt completely different.

"I've always been here, well, everyone, don't be so excited." Feng Yi suggested everyone calm down, don't treat him like a rare animal, or he might get shy. Of course, this was just a little joke.

The reason for coming here was to tell Adams everything he knew.

After visiting twice, the Titan Elves had a noticeable change in attitude. In this regard, Feng Yi recommended that the Human Alliance should best prepare in advance. The ups and downs of matters often accompany such situations; the more the Titan Elves wavered, the more humans should seize the valuable time and strike while the iron is hot.

In his view, the form of the iron didn't matter at all. What mattered was making decisions decisively. The current situation didn't fit the word 'cautious'; the Titan Elves' dictionary also lacked the concept of caution. Other than weighing pros and cons, there was only interest left. Thus, even if the future and expected results were far from each other, humans had done their best; that was enough.

After finishing his words, Feng Yi intended to leave. In his memory, some sceneries and images were worth revisiting. A person's life experiences are like a beautiful scroll. When we grow old, die, or even are reborn, our mindset changes a bit, whether we reminisce, recall, or ponder other things.

"You brat, where are you going? Nowhere!"

Just as Feng Yi turned around, Greedy Wolf instantly grabbed his wrist and refused to let go, no matter what, which left a large crowd watching both in tears and laughter.

Feng Yi felt awkward, stating he just wanted to take a casual stroll. Finally, after Feng Yi verbally promised, Greedy Wolf released his grip and made the fastest statement with the simplest words.

By this time, hardly anyone was listening attentively in the room, and the leaders weren't seriously holding the meeting. Shortly after Feng Yi left, everyone had the same voice in their hearts.

Ignoring a bunch of high-ranking officials, Feng Yi breathed in the fresh air of 9 a.m., opened his fish-like eyes, and couldn't help but sigh, "The weather's great, but it's a pity..."

With an instant step, Feng Yi appeared in a certain cemetery, where a variety of people were coming and going.

"Big brother, what a pity?"

"It's a pity the branches and leaves are too lush, blocking the sunlight."

"Do you mean the tombstones?" Eggy seemed not to understand Feng Yi's implied meaning.

"Ah, maybe. There are shadows everywhere in the world, whether it's bright or dark. Some fell on the battlefield and are remembered, while others are forgotten and finally turn into eternal decay with the dust."

"Eggy noticed the name on the tombstone too and stopped speaking, as if recalling a certain scene..."

The flow of people in the cemetery gradually increased, and Feng Yi didn't pay attention. A high-ranking commander watching from afar had no intention of coming over; they just looked from a distance, watching Feng Yi's back.

"Are you the Revenge Shadow Rider?"

Silence was broken by the boy's voice, his face full of admiration.

"Ah. Why, does it matter to you?"

"Yes." The boy nodded vigorously, "Revenge Shadow Rider is my idol; he's a hero."

"A hero, huh... Compared to that, they are the most worthy of admiration."

Feng Yi gazed at a tombstone inscribed with 'Huang Zhennan,' bending down to pick up the sand, letting the dirt trickle between his fingers, "Our memory lasts more than seven seconds, yet few people remember them in this world."

The boy was silent for a moment before saying, "Revenge Shadow Rider big brother, are you really, you are Feng, Feng..." He seemed afraid to continue.

"Yes, Feng as in the breeze, Yi as in grace. Feng Yi, I am it, and it is me."
