4 4 301 He has never returned home with this sensation in the past. Since becoming a Construct, his home has been the lounge he shares with Strike Hawk. His communications with John have mostly been done through his comms.
|
|
5 5 301 The furniture in the estate looks identical to how it was when he left. Even the vases and framed paintings have not moved an inch.
|
|
6 6 301 It is as if his home and the person living in it have frozen in time together, in a fittingly cold, indifferent house.

21 21 301 1 John I've heard about the specialized frame from Nikola. 2
|
|
22 22 301 John The risk it poses is still too difficult to gauge, and it comes with complicated baggage. I think it's best for you to put your attention elsewhere before the technology is mature. 2
|
|
23 23 301 John Stop getting sidetracked and learn to identify what is worthwhile like how I taught you. 2
|
|
24 24 301 Chrome I'm actually here to talk about this. 1

25 25 301 Chrome I've decided to take part in the specialized frame experiment. 1

26 26 301 John You don't want to stay as a Construct captain of a scout team forever, do you? 2
|
|
27 27 301 John You're my son. You'll enter the administration eventually, so you have to start preparing for the day when you stop being a Construct and become someone that actually matters. 2

28 28 301 Chrome looks down and swipes his hand over the table, and a holographic projection of a chessboard appears above it.

31 31 301 Chrome I don't think you've seen me fight on the field, have you? 1

32 32 301 John If you're talking about those pointless missions... I'm too busy to read those reports. 2
|
|
33 33 301 John I only care about the results. 2
|
|
34 34 301 John And I already played you in the past, remember? Twice we have played, and twice you have lost. 2
|
|
35 35 301 Chrome I have been practicing and improving since then, but you haven't given me another chance to prove myself. 1

46 46 301 Chrome nods in courtesy before gesturing for John to be the White player and make the first move.
|
|
47 47 301 John thinks for a second before issuing his command.
|

|
|
55 55 301 Staring at Chrome, John issues another command. Chrome stares back and responds in a relaxed manner.
|
|
56 56 301 The Black Pawn moves to D6, forming a line of defense.
|
|
57 57 301 Chrome You've been playing the exact moves as before. 1

66 66 301 AniZhuanchangEnd It is an opulent display—people in lavish clothes walking between tables laid with the finest food and the freshest flowers, their chatters and stale laughter bouncing in the room, reverberating in his audio system.
|
|
67 67 301 As if a reenactment of a time long passed, this place looks just like a feast of the Golden Age.
|
|
68 68 301 While many are fighting with their lives on the frontline, some are here, at the topmost level of Eden, living luxuriously, no different from how they did on Earth.

69 69 301 Some people go to hell, while others go to heaven.

70 70 301 The dissonance makes the young man frown.

|
|
73 73 301 Instead, he is wearing a suit that does not match his station, standing in an indulgent hotel ballroom coated in gold, holding a glass of wine someone handed him—he is a Construct. He does not drink or eat.
|
|
74 74 301 ??? Langston.
|
|
75 75 301 His wandering thoughts return, and he finds John Smith looking at him.

85 85 301 1 Officer Langston Smith! I've heard a lot about you. 1
|
|
86 86 301 Officer Leading an elite team to locate and help destroy 23 Corrupted clusters, taking back 5 major bases, being a decorated soldier and a Chief from the F.O.S. Military Command College... I expect nothing less from the son of John Smith. 1
|
|
87 87 301 Officer I'm sure it comforts you to know that you have a worthy successor, Mr. Smith. 1

|

96 96 301 Chatter A Construct... I guess that's the end of him getting any real power.
|
|
97 97 301 Chatter I suppose this is the end of the line for the Smiths... What else can he do? Gamble his legacy on a Construct?

108 108 301 John Have you thought about what awaits the Constructs once their duty is fulfilled? 2

110 110 301 John You should be thinking about what happens afterward. 2

112 112 301 John We do not care about bloodlines—what we care about is the legacy of our name. So... human or Construct, you are the successor of John Smith. That will never change. 2

113 113 301 John All you have to do is move forward and complete your tasks flawlessly. Show me what your future is. 2

114 114 301 John You've picked the path of a Construct... 2
|
|
115 115 301 John It means you have to work for it even harder. It means you will find even more difficulties and hard decisions ahead of you. 2

116 116 301 John Nikola mentioned your performance outside City 075. Lowest Construct casualties, highest threat removal rate, all under your lead. You even managed to update Babylonia on the Red Tide despite the signal interference. 2

120 120 301 Chrome I was simply doing my job as a Construct. My current teammates... 1

121 121 301 John Have you become that gullible after knowing those Constructs? 2
|
|
122 122 301 John looks at the busy, bustling ballroom in the background and continues.
|
|
123 123 301 John This is the real world, Chrome. Past or present, power is the only thing that matters. 2
|
|
124 124 301 John During the Great Evacuation, the most invaluable supply ships and the most exceptional soldiers were used to transport meaningless junk... 2
|
|
125 125 301 John ...Simply because those junk belonged to people with power. 2
|
|
126 126 301 John Do you find it ridiculous? But if it weren't for the sponsorship of those people in power, Constructs wouldn't have been created, and Babylonia wouldn't even liftoff. 2
|
|
127 127 301 John There is no era when you can ignore the profits power brings. 2
|
|
128 128 301 John You should understand what to abandon by now, and what duty you should have accepted long ago. 2

|

136 136 301 Someone has asked him a similar question, he thinks. This was what he answered.
|
|
137 137 301 Will Kamui really do as he said and go play all the games he is interested in, even trying to make a living out of it?
|
|
138 138 301 Regardless of his plans, Wanshi will finally get to take a good rest without getting dragged into a mission from his sleeping pod in the middle of the sleep.
|
|
139 139 301 Kids love him. Maybe he can return to his old department and continues his career before the war. He was so good at it.
|
|
140 140 301 From Chrome's perspective, they all come with infinite possibilities.
|
