Bulwark of Light

2022-10-08

Central City, Queen’s Castle.

Dawn is approaching, and outside the attic of the ancient castle, the night has not broken, and it still looks quiet. The soft wind blows, and a faint fluorescent light dances from the grass, bringing light earlier than the dawn.

These fluorescences are not firefly, but pure, transparent shavings.

Corps Head sits in the castle hall, feels the warm wind blowing from the face, drinks tea and waits patiently.

She just received a short notice that the castle welcomed a distinguished visitor.

The light shavings in the distance moved with the wind and gradually converged towards her location.

There was a faint chatter and laughter.

One can hear the voice of Grand Duke Zhuxue: “I haven’t seen you for a long time, Miss Meng is more beautiful than ever.”

And the other…

The voice is soft, like the warm wind in the hall.

“Mr. Zhuxue is overpraised.”

Corps Head slowly raised his head, the two figures walking together slowly entered her line of sight, and Zhuxue cast a vaguely one His gaze, immediately gave a salute, stopped in front of the hall, said with a slight smile: “Meng Goddess, Zhuxue has official business at hand, so I will send it here tonight.”

“You are very kind sir.”

There is only one Meng Goddess in this world.

Western Continent, Meng Western Continent.

The hall is not dark at all, but because of the arrival of this lithe and graceful silhouette, it is even brighter. The shavings of light in all directions come together like streams from afar… These are contained in the transcendent source. The “light” in the quality sensed the master’s call, so it flew here.

Meng Western Continent bowed respectfully to Corps Head.

Her manners are as impeccable as those of the old Aristocratic Family in Nagano.

Who would hate such a woman?

Bright, magnanimous, arrogant, warm… as if all the perfect qualities in this world were combined with her.

The word Goddess.

Well deserved.

Although the world will not hate such perfect and without blemish characters, it is also difficult for them to “like” from the heart, too hot light, destined to hang on the ceiling, just like the sun, Everyone can see it when they raise their eyes, but if they are a little closer, they will burn their eyes and burn their hands, and if they are closer, they will be burned to the point where there are no ashes.

A person or thing that is too perfect can only be appreciated from a distance.

“Meng Goddess.”

Between the brows of Corps Head, she gradually stretched, she gently breathed the bright breath in the wind, and felt that the gloomy spirit had become soothing. many.

“The word Goddess is a shame… Lord Corps Head, just call me Little Meng.”

Meng Western Continent had no choice but to smile.

This is not a modest word, until now, she really doesn’t want the title of Goddess, but there are too many believers in Bright City, and they all shout like this, so it spreads all over the five continents.

“I’m not here today to harass Your Majesty.”

The Queen, on the second floor.

Meng Western Continent knew that at this moment, he was only a few dozen meters away from the great queen.

As long as you go to the attic and walk a short distance, you can “see you”.

“Because of the marriage contract…I want to come in person and make amends to Your Majesty.” Meng Western Continent said seriously: “There is no other purpose for this trip…”

The Queen lives in the attic for a long time.

This matter has attracted the attention of many foreign thrones… At this juncture, Goddess came to see her, even if she declared in advance that she had no other intentions, she still believed it.

Corps Head calmly opened the mouth and said: “Miss Meng should know that Your Majesty normally does not see outsiders… Even if you have a distinguished status and want to see you, you need to make an appointment in advance. I’m afraid I won’t be able to do what you want.”

“I… came out without the knowledge of Bright City.”

In desperation.

Meng Western Continent lightly sighed.

She said sincerely: “Since I regretted my marriage, I have been confined in Bright City… I don’t know how long I can hide from there during this trip. Maybe after tonight, I will start to return. “

“I’m really sorry.”

Corps Head shook his head, “If you’re just expressing your apology, then you don’t need to go upstairs…even more how, you are traveling privately this time, arriving in the north Continent, words and deeds do not represent Bright City.”

Meng Western Continent was silent for a second.

“…I was abrupt.”

She gave a bow, “It’s okay if you can’t see Your Majesty. Lord Ziyu, I heard about my ‘fiancé’. In Central City, I want to meet him…”

Corps Head hearing this laughed.

“It’s really unfortunate.”

She raised her head, pointed to the iron dome in the distance through the floor-to-ceiling glass window, and said softly, “If you come half a day early, maybe There is still a chance, but at this moment… I think Lin Lin has already left Beizhou, although it is almost dawn at this moment, looking at the shining stars above the sky, he should be on one of them.”

“Is it too late…”

Meng Western Continent looked regretful: “Then my big brother?”

“It’s really unfortunate, your hereditary The big brother of the title of Zhenyue is also on it.”

Corps Head indifferently said: “In addition, Lord Goddess, I need to remind you that although Bright City has denied the repentance of marriage, what you think in your heart, The Central City is known to everyone, known to everyone…There are only you and me tonight, the three words ‘fiancé’ should be put away.”

……

……

Beizhou’s long-planned “restart mission” used a total of fifteen airships. These airships were not very large. There were fourteen squares in total, and each square had its own airship.

And leading these squads is the “command boat” where Osmond sits.

The famous Eye of the Third Legion and his adjutant will link 14 Captains at the same time in the “spiritual network” that has been built in the Dolu River disaster to conduct overall united front command.

This time’s “restart mission”, the biggest goal that Captain 14 needs to accomplish is to find the [door] in the disaster!

In addition, due to the heavy losses after the crusade mission ended, and the inside of the disaster area has not yet completed a clear exploration, they need to lay out [deep sea] hardware equipment as much as possible to maintain the stability of the spiritual network.

The danger of disaster has been eliminated.

What they need to do is to “reclaim wasteland”!

At this moment, there was a lot of discussion on the airship where Zhong Yuan was.

“Captain has been in the Gravity Room for six hours, eleven times the gravity… this is not something normal people can bear.”

In Zhongyuan’s team, except for Yuan Yuan, there are a total of six players.

These transcenders are elites selected through the general meeting. Their physical fitness and innate talent aptitude are all very good. Their age is not much different from that of Zhongyuan, but their strength… is not bad. few.

“The next step is to reach the Dolu River. With such hard training, can Captain’s physical strength hold up?”

These team members are all elites!

Before they arrived at the central city, each of them considered themselves to be “cultivation madmen”, and it was only after meeting Zhongyuan that they realized that they were far from a real genius!

Yuan Yuan held the knife, looked out the window, and the rising dawn, indifferently said: “Don’t worry… If he will be affected by this level of training, how could he be called the What about ‘Captain’?”

In this team, he is the one who is most familiar with Nakahara.

After all, paused.

“For a storm-type transcender, this can only be considered a warm-up. A little sweat in the Gravity Room, what is it?” : “Those like Mr. Gu are the real ‘crazy people’.”

Several team members looked at each other in blank dismay.

The dull sound of sandbags came from time to time in the Gravity Room, which was so noticeable that they forgot the quietest silhouette in the corner for a while.

The one with the highest privilege in this restart mission!

Gu Shen!

Due to the charter of the Queen Your Majesty, Gu Shen is not under the command of anyone, and does not need to listen to anyone’s advice… Just set off with the airship and be responsible for landing to the Doru River.

So during the intensive training and special training these days, he never showed up.

In the training ground, there are many transcenders who are eager to have a try and want to compete with this “Eastern Continent S-Rank”… They play a good abacus, only It’s a pity that I didn’t see Gu Shen’s silhouette when the mission started.

Gu Shen simply didn’t leave his room!

For a while, news spread in the training ground. Most people thought it was Gu Shen who was cowardly and deliberately closed the door… After all, Grand Duke Zhenyue, who also has exclusive privileges, but every day all will bring their squad members to the training ground for a lap.

Who is the hunter, who is the prey, obvious at a glance.

It’s just…that’s a smart move when you think about it.

Gu Shen came all the way from Eastern Continent, so he is alone, is it possible that he has to meet force with force with Grand Duke Zhenyue?

So the task is at first.

Gu Shen boarded Zhongyuan’s airship directly.

His privilege means that he will be despised… In the past few days, the rumors about his fear of Zhenyue have spread all over the world and have been despised. Other unfamiliar people will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.

I have dealt with Zhong Yuan before. In this team, there is also the old acquaintance Yuan Yuan. Gu Shen also read the information about the remaining team members in advance. Upright, straightforward and upright people, at least in the process of traveling, will not come to trouble themselves.

So after boarding the airship, he started the Spiritual Cultivation trip with peace of mind, to hit the unbreakable “golden hoop”.

As the airship sails, head into the sky.

From time to time, the pendant felt an urgent mental rhythm.

On the way to the Doru River…it felt uneasy…

This time the mission is really dangerous.

Gu Shen naturally noticed something, but he completely ignored the pendant’s rhythm at the moment.

Doru River… He is going anyway, no matter how uneasy this pendant is, he can only go with him.

…

…

on the command boat.

Osmond, who seemed to be resting with his eyes closed, suddenly said, “Do you think it’s been a little too quiet these days…”

[Deep Sea] is driving the command boat.

Lin Lin has nothing to do yet, he is concentrating on Spiritual Cultivation, but the efficiency is not high.

This is a rare large-scale mission in Beizhou. Every member of the restarted squad who is selected is in a state of anxiety at the moment. Mood was turbulent.

For some reason, he felt that a big wave was about to rise in the lake of his heart.

“Your Excellency, why did you say this?”

Since he had nothing to do and couldn’t concentrate on Spiritual Cultivation, Lin Lin put aside those trivial thoughts and accompanied Osmond. De chatted.

“Although I’m old and don’t participate in the youngster thing, I’ve heard a little bit of the hype recently.” Osmond narrowed his eyes and said meaningfully with a smile: “Your friend surnamed Gu used to have a good reputation, but now it’s not so good… Beizhou people don’t like deserters, even if they lose, they should fight with dignity.”

Lin Lin shook the head: “Your remark is bad.”

Osmond raised his eyebrows: “oh?”

“If I were him, I wouldn’t go out either. Let’s fight.”

Lin Lin sat upright, talking about this matter, his impetuous mood gradually sank: “A major event like restarting the mission actually allows Zhenyue to abuse his private power. …to directly order a complete squad? If they are all conquerors of the Northern Continent frontier, that’s all, he also brought followers of Bright City!”

“Private power…every Captain Everyone has private rights, but Zhenyue is the most greedy and most willing.” Osmond said softly with a smile: “He even brought Bright City’s help, how could Central City refuse such a generous person? “

“Yeah, Central City always likes to pick up bargains, no matter how big or small, you have to pick it up when you see it, but if you do this, you will often pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons.”

p>

Lin Lin sneered in a lukewarm manner, and then said: “Zhenyue brings such an elite team, if she meets Gu Shen, is it really as simple as ‘learning’? Once you meet , the situation has changed, Zhenyue was able to throw face at the dinner party before sneak attack, this time if they meet at the training ground, he will definitely take the initiative to fight, it will definitely make Gu Shen suffer a big loss, by then, it will not be Now that the reputation has become worse, the irrelevant influence.”

Osmond was a little surprised and asked: “I don’t understand the current youngster… After all, it is the successor in the name of Zhenyue. , Meng Xiao really doesn’t talk about martial arts, and he started fighting after meeting? Also, the reputation has become worse, is it just an insignificant influence now?”

“It doesn’t matter, Your Excellency Osmond, the times It’s changed.”

Lin Lin said indifferently: “As long as you can reach the final goal, and don’t talk about martial arts, what’s the point? Those who don’t talk about martial arts are not just Zhenyue, who don’t care about reputation. There are also a lot of people…”

Osmond’s eyes were a little complicated.

Looking back in the past… when he and the previous Zhenyue fought bloody battles, they once handed over their backs to each other, but they were only the heirs of the old man, but their personality was not what he expected.

“As you put it that way, Gu Shen avoid meeting somebody, but it’s the best policy.”

Osmond said: “You just said, there are people who don’t care about reputation. Many people, in Legion today, I have seen, many are loyal and upright people who are willing to sacrifice their lives for Beizhou…”

“Your Excellency, times have really changed.”

p>

Lin Lin didn’t mean to be sarcastic, he spoke very seriously, and at the same time looked blankly at the central control screen, the command boat was about to arrive at its final destination, “You know, those who care about reputation, gather together Where is the most?”

“The grave.”

Osmond was startled.

“Your former comrades-in-arms, former comrades… Many of them have died in battle. They gained fame, but lost the sunshine forever.” Lin Lin said softly: “As far as I know, outside the North Continent. Those transcenders of , want to live more than fame. On the battlefield, you control everything, plan everything, and you must count the ‘people’s heart’, because now, losing the reputation… is no longer a major. event.”
