『Will humans in the future still need marriage?

In today's society, marriage is an emotional union and a social contract. It is romantic but irrational. Most unhappy marriages are not due to lack of love, but lack of friendship.

If marriage is still needed in the future society, then marriage must be a perfect fusion of science, rationality and humanity.

The new humans of the future will not only seek love and companionship, but also strive to achieve the best harmony at the genetic and psychological levels. 』

Gambling City·Harrah's and LINQ Station.

Harrah's and LINQ Station is located on the bustling Las Vegas Strip. Even in the early morning, it is still brightly lit and busy as day.

The eye-catching monorail sign is hung at the entrance, shining under the lights, guiding the endless stream of tourists into the station.

The towering hotels around are flashing neon lights in the night, and the colorful lights are reflected on the glass exterior of the station, giving this modern building a charming coat.

The bustling shops and restaurants are still open, with various billboards placed in front of the door, attracting pedestrians.

At the entrance of the station, the display screen scrolls the arrival time of the monorail and other important information, and the bright blue font is particularly eye-catching against the black background.

Passengers lined up in front of the ticket vending machine, and the sound of queuing to buy tickets and the electronic sound of the ticket machine intertwined to form a unique city symphony.

The information desk on the side has soft lighting, and the staff smiles and provides friendly consulting services.

Xia Xiu stood outside the station with a cane in his left hand and a hot coffee paper cup in his right hand. The cold night wind blew over him. He took a sip of hot coffee and felt the warmth spreading in his body.

In his perception, in the sky of the distant Blue Grass State, [Metatron] had handed over the bone worm arrow and vest ribs to the burial team of the Kingdom of Heaven stationed in the Edici Federation containment room after dealing with the blood of Swinton.

After delivering the containment, he recalled [Metatron] to the secret key. At the same time, his eyes inadvertently looked at the Administration mission briefing from [Adam] that only he could see.

Xia Xiu calmly glanced at the mission briefing sent by the [Mole Science Society], and then raised the coffee in his hand to his lips and took a sip.

"Another place, this way, the weird rumors about me will probably be a hot topic again... the angel who brings disaster, the man in black."

He couldn't help but feel sorry for his "good reputation" in his heart.

Xia Xiu always felt that he didn't blow up wherever he went, but wherever there was danger, he would appear there.

He was obviously a good angel who was eager to help others in need, brave to do what was right, kind and generous, and righteous...

However, those local reactionary forces including the Wand Man and foreign forces from all realms always slander him!!!

They should ask themselves, those places that were bombed and those people that were slaughtered, are they not at fault?

These people, sometimes when something goes wrong, they should think more about whether it is their own fault, and don’t always put the blame on him, a sword-wielding man who has just “debuted” for a short time.

He is still just an old newbie who has just been out of school for more than a year, and is very afraid of all kinds of violence from society.

Moreover, the people he cuts are not as salty as others.

While Xia Xiu was drinking coffee leisurely, he looked around.

As a [Crown], he can get all kinds of consulting information feedback about his real world.

For example, someone looks at his photos, someone talks about him, and someone wants to... cut him to death!

This kind of feedback is generally potential and deep, and in most cases [Crown] will block these useless information feedback to reduce their spiritual overload or pollution.

However, someone wants to cut him to death, and takes action, and does not hide his malicious spiritual warning.

Xia Xiu could say that this was the first time he had encountered an enemy that not only refused to surrender, but also tried to fight back.

In his spirituality, there was a feedback similar to "a large wave of zombies is approaching."

The [Triple Crown] hidden in his body flickered, indicating that this attack was quite powerful.

"I really have too few 'works'." Xia Xiu couldn't help but sigh, "Too few works and not strong enough will be like this. People 'look down' on me in various ways. I really am too kind."

He looked up and noticed a group of passengers waiting for the train not far away. They were standing or sitting, with different expressions.

Some people were browsing their phones, some were talking to each other, and occasionally chuckled.

In front of the ticket machine, several tourists were anxiously pressing buttons, as if they were catching the last train.

Although the station was in the early hours of the morning, it still looked busy and orderly.

Xia Xiu stood outside the station, looking at the monorail track in the distance.

Several beams of searchlights drew several bright streaks in the night sky, illuminating his handsome face under the brim of his hat.

His golden eyes flashed coldly under the light, like two dazzling gems.

Everything seemed calm and orderly, but Xia Xiu could sense that there seemed to be several eyes on him.

Beep, beep——————

As the train approached, the atmosphere around him suddenly became sticky and dull, and a murderous aura spread around, as if there was an invisible danger in the air.

The surrounding tourists and passengers felt inexplicably frightened. Some sensitive people shuddered and had goosebumps all over their bodies, as if some invisible threat was approaching them.

Xia Xiu's face was calm, and he pursed his lips slightly, savoring the warmth brought by the last sip of hot drink.

The coffee cup turned slightly in his hand, and then was casually thrown into the trash can not far away. The whole process was effortless.

The cup drew a perfect arc in the air and fell accurately into the bucket without making a single noise.

His left hand slowly handed the cane to his right hand, the movement smooth and natural.

The silver handle of the cane shone coldly in the light.

Xia Xiu raised his fingers lightly and used the tip of his cane to lift up the brim of his hat. The hat moved slightly upward, revealing his handsome face.

The golden hair is looming under the brim of the hat, reflecting his cold and deep golden eyes, with a hint of intimidation that cannot be ignored.

Immediately, he showed a dazzling smile, like a light that suddenly lit up in the dark night. There was a hint of teasing and calm confidence in that smile.

He moved his lips lightly and murmured silently:

"The knell has tolled, everyone."

At that moment, the surrounding air seemed to freeze, and the chilling atmosphere became even stronger.

The beam of the searchlight reflected the face of the fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven as perfectly as a sculpture, but there was a cold edge in his eyes, as if he had foreseen the bloody storm that would follow.

The people on the platform felt an inexplicable sense of oppression, and invisible fear grew in their hearts. They were about to face some kind of inevitable disaster.

Then, their thoughts fell into a trance, and everyone's eyes were dull and motionless.

They all heard a voice in their minds, and that voice gave them an order - don't move!

Click————

At this moment, the stopped monorail made a slight mechanical sound, and the carriage door slid open silently, revealing a bright passage leading inside.

The fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven has already stepped into it, while the others around him kept their eyes blank.

The moment Xia Xiu stepped into the carriage, the chilling air around him suddenly erupted sharply, like an invisible sharp blade making a harsh hiss in the air, and the entire space trembled for his arrival.

Buzz buzz buzz! ! ! !

It's the sound of the monorail starting up, carrying its passengers on a path full of hell.

Inside the monorail.

Each carriage of the entire train is equipped with comfortable seats and ample standing space. The seats are made of durable synthetic materials with bright colors and simple designs. LED displays inside the carriages are suspended at both ends.

However, there is no usual next stop information and arrival time on the display screen. Instead, there is a photo.

These photos have one thing in common - they are all wedding photos in black wedding dresses.

The characters in the photos are different, some have happy smiles on their faces, some have tears in their eyes, and some have stern expressions, but everyone's figure is shrouded in the shadow of a black wedding dress, making them look particularly strange and harmonious. mystery.

Xia Xiu naturally sat inside the carriage and chose a seat by the window.

Ding~

The cane in his hand tapped the ground lightly, making a crisp sound.

Apart from him, there was only one other person in the entire carriage, no other passengers.

Xia Xiu's eyes swept across the interior of the car, and finally settled on the person opposite.

The passenger opposite was a young woman wearing a black wedding dress, including a lace skirt, a shoulderless top decorated with thorns and roses, delicate gloves and a blended silk veil.

The lace skirt is delicate and complicated, each layer is embroidered with delicate patterns and rose vines, and the corners of the skirt are the marriage abbreviation and black cat logo, making it look mysterious and elegant.

She is about 165 centimeters tall and has a medium to thin build. She looks slender and elegant.

Her red hair was slightly curled under the veil, looking gorgeous and eye-catching.

The bride in wedding dress looked up at the fourth sword holder in heaven, with a strange light in her eyes.

The moment she looked up, the tone of the photo in the entire carriage changed, as if affected by an invisible force.

The color tone of the photos begins to shift toward dark gothic art or nostalgic Victorian styles.

The originally bright sky in the photo became gloomy with thick clouds, as if foreshadowing an upcoming storm.

The ground was covered with dust, fallen leaves and flower petals, making it look desolate and desolate.

The furniture and scenery have also become dilapidated, with mottled cracks appearing on the walls, and dust and withered flower petals accumulating on the floor.

Each photo has a bit of a weird element, and sometimes there are Gothic-style buildings or objects, such as ancient churches with steeples, stone tablets carved with strange runes, and antique mirrors covered with spider webs.

The male images in the photos have also changed. They have been severely transformed into beasts or arthropods. Some have claws and fangs, and some have weird limbs with multiple joints.

The atmosphere in the carriage became more depressing and gloomy, with some kind of indescribable fear hidden in every corner. "

Click click click click——

At this moment, the sound of the train became more and more urgent, so urgent that it was a bit extraordinary, and so urgent that it seemed like it was going to derail immediately.

Xia Xiu tilted his head slightly, looking around the rapidly running monorail train as if counting.

"1, 2, 3... 14 [Masters], no, 13, and 1 lackey of Chaos."

"I want to take back that sentence. It seems that I am not completely looked down upon. You are really willing to spend your money.

As he spoke, the shadows under his feet began to crawl outward, and the terrifying undead army roared in the gloomy world.
