My Apocalypse Fortress Vehicle - 368.The Curse of the Night Owl
“The reason why you want to change the family name and change the normal Flair to some shit Jc is because your great-grandfather, his father, is a Paradise Island rebel. And he is the member of the largest rebel army. Member, his bounty is as high as one billion.
“His name was banned by the people of Paradise Island and buried with the dust of history. Not many descendants know about it. But as his descendants, we must remember the name of that ancestor.
“His name is Night Owl J Click Flair. In order to remember him and hide it from others, later generations of families changed their surname to the Jc in this ancestor’s name, which makes our surname sound strange.
“But it is precisely this that helped our family barely survive the rounds of purges and strangulations from Paradise Island.”
When Chelsea said this, she paused and touched her nose, while little Jack started crying again at the back of the video.
“Wait a minute, you started making noise again. You were really noisy when you were a child.”
Chelsea said in the video, stood up, walked to little Jack, and coaxed him a few times before continuing to coax him to sleep.
Jack looked at his father coaxing him to sleep in the video, and tears suddenly flowed down uncontrollably.
He had never seen such a side of his father, and he realized that this man’s fatherly love for him was far more than he imagined.
After coaxing little Jack to sleep, Chelsea sat back down to where he was before, while Jack kept wiping his tears. Although this did not affect the video in his mind, he always subconsciously felt that it was the tears that blurred him. Look at Chelsea’s face.
“You are too noisy. If it were Ye Tila, maybe he would have the patience to take care of you. Unfortunately, I can’t help but throw you into the workshop. If you make any more noise, I will let you die on your own.
“Where did we just talk? Oh, it seems that changing our surname helped our family escape the purge and massacre of Paradise Island. However, the Paradise Islanders of our old ancestors have never been found. I won’t give up easily.
“Because their most powerful weapon was also the comrade our ancestors fought side by side with, that guy named Meteor, and his most powerful weapon, the weapon named Night Owl, was made by our ancestors .”
Hearing the name “Meteor”, Jack knew that things were not simple, and the direction was completely beyond his expectation.
The meteor is the most powerful weapon of Arasaka Tower and the last line of defense at the entrance to Paradise Island. He guards it as if it is the boundary between the two worlds.
As long as he is around, no one will ever be able to cross that line. He is the strongest weapon and the strongest existence.
Jack had heard of him in numerous urban legends about his ability to kill an entire army with his bare hands. No matter what kind of rebel force they are, as long as they encounter him, they will be easily strangled by him like an ant.
Jack had never thought that there were still people in his family who could be related to the meteor, to that “person” who had been completely mythologized.
In the video, Chelsea continues to say:
“As I said before, our ancestors and Meteorite were comrades-in-arms, and they had a very good relationship. Meteorite constructed a powerful weapon. He designed half of the drawings, and the other half of the drawings were made by our ancestors himself. Designed. Not only that, every detail and every place of that weapon was hand-made by him for Yue Xing. For this reason, Yue Xing named the weapon Night Owl, which is the name of our ancestor.
“They broke into Arasaka Tower together and stood at the top of Arasaka Tower. Everyone thought that the meteor would lead them to overthrow the rule of Paradise Island and re-establish a fair world full of human love, just as they believed .
“But the meteor rebelled. No one knows the reason. Maybe the ancestor knew, but he never mentioned the real reason to others until he died.
“The meteor killed almost all the rebels. Only our old ancestor escaped. He stepped on the corpses of his companions and risked his life by jumping from the top floor of Arasaka Tower before the meteor found him. Thanks to him before the war, he was behind The mechanical glider installed allowed him to survive falling from such a high position and save his life.
“Later, when the corpses of the rebels at the scene were checked, no body of our ancestor was found, so those people knew that he had escaped.”
When Chelsea said this, her tone became more urgent:
“But they can never let him go, because he holds the secret of Ye Xiao and the blueprint of Ye Xiao. That blueprint and that weapon are the top-level existences of Meteor. Although they already have a Meteor , but they were afraid of the second meteorite, the third meteorite… and countless meteorites appearing later. So they had to catch their ancestor and take his drawing.
“That’s why this weapon called Night Owl has become a curse on our family.”
Chelsea raised her eyes and suddenly stared closely at Jack outside the screen, as if she had traveled through a long time stream and saw what he would look like when he grew up behind the screen:
“Jack, I have to tell you something. Forging weapons is our family’s innate ability and our strength. But it is precisely because of this ability that we often get involved in some troubles.
“In fact, since the ancestor named Ye Xiao, every elder you know, including me, has become a member of various rebel armies. Because anyone who has seen the ancestors left behind None of the descendants of the books want to live in ignorance.
“And your mother, Yetila, I also met in the rebel army. We fell in love, and we got married until we had you.”
At this point, Chelsea sighed and her expression darkened.
“If it weren’t for Ye Tila’s death, I might be willing to train you to be like all the elders in the Jc family, a person with free will. In order to share the truth of all history with everyone, everyone has Fighters for a world with the right to know.
“But Ye Tila is dead.
“Your mother was originally in good health. Nothing could hurt her, and nothing could damage her faith. She was a powerful and smart hacker. However, during a mission, our captain insisted on sending Ye Tila, who was already pregnant, went on a mission.
“All of us know how difficult and dangerous that task is, and sending Ye Tila there is basically a sure death. There are obviously so many hackers and so many manpower, but the captain insists on sending her there. Because She is the best among us.
“Ye Tila passed away, even though she knew she might die. But she told me that if it was for her faith, responsibility and dreams, she was willing to die.
“That was the only quarrel we had, and Ye Tila talked me into it. Jack, she talked me into it.”
At this point, Chelsea suddenly lowered her head, grabbed her head with both hands, and her voice became painful:
“This is the decision I regret most in my life.
“Ye Tila went to participate in the mission. Everything went smoothly before, but during the evacuation, during the evacuation…
“Jack, your mother, Ye Tila, she inhaled the poisonous gas. In order to cover her comrades in retreating first, she absorbed almost all the poisonous gas. By the time she forced herself to get into the car, you were about to be born. But she was going to die too.
“They sent her to the hospital. When I rushed over, the doctor told me that Ye Tila had two choices at the time. The first option was to ignore you and try their best to rescue Ye Tila. Ye Tila might still have a way to survive. But you will die.
“The second rule is to have you removed by caesarean section before all the toxins in Ye Tila’s body spread, so that you can survive. But Ye Tila will definitely die, she will definitely die.
“Jack, I’m sorry, I’m sorry…
“What I chose at that time was to save Ye Tila. Even if there was only a faint hope, even if I got nothing and lost everything in the end, I would choose to save Ye Tila.
“But just after I made my choice, Ye Tila suddenly woke up for some reason. She woke up, held my hand, and told me, telling me so firmly that she must give birth to you. , she loves you. She begged me to let her give birth to you. At that time, she exuded a kind of light that I couldn’t describe, and I always listened to her words.
“She is very independent, very smart, very perseverant and determined. She helps me make decisions on many things. Compared with her, I am just a useless person who only knows how to blacksmith, repeating a boring job all my life. .
“I am a useless man. I was persuaded again, Jack, and I asked the doctor to save you…”
Chelsea said, suddenly paused.
Then Jack heard a low sob in the video.
The low sobs lasted for a long time.
After sobbing, Chelsea raised his head. His eyes were red, but it seemed that his mood had calmed down a lot.
“After that incident, I quit the rebel army. No matter how they tried to persuade me to stay, I left resolutely because I knew that my dreams and beliefs had been completely shattered.
“I have been thinking about one thing for a long time, that is, is what our family has been doing for so long correct? Is what Ye Tila insists on correct?
“I thought about it for a long time. I discovered that almost everyone in our family died a good death, either in the mission or in the military’s encirclement and suppression. Now even my wife is like this.
“Things that are so dangerous and full of unknowns are still carried out by members of our family, like moths to a flame, dedicating their lives to revolution and rebellion.
“Is it really worth it?
“Or is this simply a curse placed on our family by Night Owl?
“Jack, I am a useless father. I can’t find the answer. Because I once loved my career so much until I lost everything for it. I am conflicted, I am confused, I question everything, and no one comes to give me the answer. .
“It’s just that Ye Tila’s death planted a seed in my heart, and that seed kept taking root, sprouting, and growing.
“Looking at your face looking more and more like Ye Tila’s and mine, I suddenly realized one thing, that is, I don’t want you to embark on this inevitable path like the rest of our family. I hope You can break the Night Owl’s curse.
“But, I don’t know why, but I hope you have your own consciousness instead of becoming a vassal of my failed life.”
Having said this, Chelsea silently raised her hand:
“Jack, I am a contradictory person, and I have never found the answer for me throughout my life. And when you see this video, I must be dead.
“I left you something, it was something that belonged to our family, my father left it to me, my father’s father left it to him, and now, as a family inheritance, I leave it to you too. “
Chelsea said, and on his raised hand, he showed several pairs of extremely detailed drawings.
Jack looked at it with wide eyes and was surprised to find that those drawings were the design drawings of Night Owl!
“Jack, the design of Night Owl is now in your hands. You can choose to give it to someone you value, or you can choose to destroy it and let it disappear completely from this world. In short, you are now a member of the Flair family The last person you have the right and title to own is this drawing.
“Jack, I have nothing left to say. I have never found the answer in this life, but at least I once had a son and wife that I loved.”
