Chapter 151: Relief
() The fourth day of the departure of the passenger ship from the city of Raab.
A medium-sized Colombian passenger ship sails on calm seas, with a view of the endless sea except for the sun in the sky.
Blue, that is immaculate, transparent, pure, quiet, enough to melt itself, is also the only color that nature has given to the sea.
..........
On the deck, the summer breeze greeted the sea breeze and took a sip of a bottle of mineral water.
Although he looks comfortable now, the encounter in the past four days is not as easy as it seems, as for why it is not easy, it is because he is seasick in the summer wind.
Perhaps because of his high concentration, he was nothing unusual on the night he first boarded the ship, until late at night, when he suddenly rushed from his top bunk into the toilet.
For two whole days, Xia Feng lay in the room like a salted fish that had lost his dreams, he only felt that the world was spinning, and his vomiting basically did not stop, and he vomited out everything that could be vomited in his stomach.
At first, the turtle turtle was still very worried to accompany him, but later because he couldn't stand the sound of Xia Feng vomiting, he selectively forgot about Xia Feng and pulled the little fire dragon to the deck to watch the sea.
Brother Ace briefly checked his condition and told him that it was not food poisoning or illness, but just ordinary seasickness, and he would get used to it in two days, and then followed the turtles and turtles to the deck to see the sea.
Except for coming back to sleep at night, there are basically no turtles and turtles in the past two days, Xia Feng is like a sick and lonely old man, lying on the bed and humming all the time.
Fortunately, the Platts brothers who live next door to them often come to see him, or how to say that these two brothers are quite righteous, in order to distract Xia Feng's attention and reduce dizziness, the elder brother often comes to chat with Xia Feng, and the younger brother Puda always brings him fresh fruits from the restaurant to eat.
When he opened his eyes in the morning, Xia Feng found that he was not dizzy or vomiting, and the nerves of his brain seemed to be gently shaking with the hull of the ship, just like learning to shake slowly on the dance floor, and he finally succeeded in evolving into a DJ.
............
Day 4.
Xia Feng changed into a floral shirt, wearing a bracelet given to him by Hemer on his left hand, and a source stone bracelet given to him by Hemer in his right hand, the whole person seemed to be a rich boy with unique taste, standing on the railing of the deck, of course, it would be better if he replaced the mineral water in his hand with a red wine glass.
After four days of sailing, now he doesn't know where the ship is going, relatively, the crew has long ceased to restrict their freedom, to put it bluntly, these stowaways were basically people with heads and faces before, even if they have no face, they are almost all rich people, Colombia's policy towards its citizens is in the upper class in the world, including criminals, if it weren't for the shocking crime, who would be smuggled by normal people.
...........
The sea is endless, the sea breeze gently blows on the face, and the air is filled with a faint smell of seawater.
This feeling of relaxation and comfort made Xia Feng forget his troubles for a while, and felt as if he was on vacation.
At this time, Ace also came to the deck, he walked to Xia Feng wearing sunglasses, put his hands on the guardrail and asked Xia Feng softly.
"Well, I'm not dizzy at all now."
Although it was not the first time, hearing the familiar voice of the ace, Xia Feng suddenly felt a sense of peace.
"Well, it's already intact, it's troublesome for you to take care of the turtles and turtles these days."
"That's what I'm supposed to do, I promised you, I'll escort you to Victoria."
"Yes."
Speaking of which, Ace looked at the boundless sea as if he was a little melancholy.
"I thought I could protect a lot of people, but I didn't expect that in the end, I had nothing to protect with my brothers who lived and died together, they didn't die, but they contracted the ore disease that I couldn't help with, to be honest, I was really desperate at the time, I don't know if you will understand, this feeling is more desperate than becoming an infected person myself."
Of course, Xia Feng understood this feeling, just like he chose to give the inhibitor to Vina in the first place, he was more afraid of Vina becoming infected than becoming an infected himself.
"Brother ace, I understand you, but I don't think you need to blame yourself, it's not your fault."
Ace smiled wryly.
"I understand, I'm not blaming myself, I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, in fact, I'm just running away."
These words ace seems to have said to him on the night of the drink, but they don't seem to remember each other, unlike that day, ace said it in a conscious state at the moment, maybe it can be regarded as a relief.
Looking at the sea, Ace said in a deep voice.
"Anger, despair, unwillingness, these negative emotions were intertwined in my brain at that time, but compared to these, there was a deeper thing that surrounded me, that is, fear, I was really scared, I was not afraid of death, I was not afraid of becoming infected, but I was really afraid of witnessing such a scene again, I was afraid of continuing to be a mercenary, I was afraid of becoming a brother who lived and died with others again, so I chose to escape, I returned to the city of Bura, abandoned the identity of a mercenary, and became an ordinary supermarket delivery man."
"Ace Big Brother ......"
Ace shook his head slightly.
"I thought I would forget those past events and live the rest of my life like a normal person, getting a fixed salary every month, and drinking with my old friends in my spare time, but I decided not to meddle in the conflicts arising from the source stone dispute, including those I once met."
Ace took off his sunglasses and exhaled deeply.
"I thought I thought so, but it wasn't until that night that I met you and Little Sister Turtle."
"I don't know why you are in Bura City, but, seeing you in trouble surrounded by the military and police, my closed heart actually loosened, like a kind of physical instinct reaction, at that moment I walked up without hesitation, and in the process of carrying you to escape, I actually laughed, because at that moment I found that even if I was like this, there were still people who needed me to protect."
Turning his head, Ace smiled sincerely.
"Xia Feng, so at that time, I decided, before you completely become an ordinary person, I will send you to Victoria, this free escort is the final ultimate mission of the Reaper Squad, the Reaper Squad, never abandon!"
The sea breeze blew across his cheeks, and Xia Feng felt that his eyes were wet.
Determined, reliable, and calm iron-blooded tough guy, in his original world, this is just the surface that players see, in the sea of fire in Chernoborg, he sacrificed himself to save everyone in Rhode Island, which seems to be the fearless spirit of Ace.
But after learning these inside stories, Xia Feng understood that it was indeed the fearless spirit of Big Brother Ace, but behind this sacrifice, there was also a kind of relief, which was more like self-redemption for not saving his former brother.
This is the real world of Terra, no one is born that perfect, no matter what role they play, until then, they were all flesh and blood people, and the same is true for Big Brother Ace.
Looking at the resolute face of the eldest brother, Xia Feng was convinced at this moment.
Brother Ace has not forgotten that remorse, whether it is a supermarket delivery man or a takeaway brother, if it were not for his interference, Ace would definitely join Rhode Island three years later and repeat the tragedy of Chernobog.
So, in addition to saving Amiya, this has also become something he must change.
...........
Facing the boundless sea, Xia Feng gently raised his fist.
"Big Brother Ace."
"Yes."
In the next second, two fists, one large and one small, collided lightly in the air.
"Big brother ace, you will always be my big brother in Xia Feng, this is not a title, but a promise."
