Chapter 3: The Story of the Great Wall
"Yes, his name is Kai, you can get to know him."
Su Lie replied with a smile and nodded.
"Wow, the people that Sister Mulan brings back every time are very interesting, last time Commander Zhao was, so this time, Brother Kai, do you have anything more powerful?"
The young man who called himself "Xuan Ce" raised his head, looked at Kai curiously with two eyes and asked.
"This ......"
Kai touched his nose and shook his head slightly, "I don't seem to have anything special. ”
That General Hua seems to be very disappointed in him, so he should make her despise, and the person who is despised shouldn't be a powerful character.
"No, it won't."
Xuan Ce looked at Kai in front of him with a look of "you are definitely lying", "Is it that Sister Mulan won't let you tell me?" Oh, I see, you must have special abilities, right? Right, right? In that case, then I won't ask, but you just came to our Great Wall Guards, so you must be very new to this place, and I don't have anything to do anyway, so let me take you around. ”
"Hey......"
Kai looked confused, what is this, first Mulan's inexplicable temptation, and now he was pulled away by this inexplicable guy for no reason, he didn't know what to say or what to react to.
"Xuan Ce, Miss will let him go to Zhao to lead the ...... later"
Su Lie's voice came from behind him.
"Got it, before the sun goes down, I'll take him to Commander Zhao."
"This kid!"
Su Lie shook his head, but he didn't say anything, Xuan Ce's naughtiness was already famous, but fortunately, he loved to play and loved to play, so he didn't miss anything, so let him go.
On the boundless Great Wall, a touch of sunset slowly falls in the west, the soldiers who defend the city stand solemnly on the city wall, holding the weapons in their hands and looking into the distance, and behind them, is their hometown that they are willing to defend with their lives, for their relatives, for their compatriots, they put on thick armor, hold the cold blade, not for whether they can live a better life, but hope that in this chaotic era, they can let themselves, let their relatives and friends, can simply live.
That's all!
"Brother Kai, look there!"
Baili Xuance took Kai to the city wall, standing on the high walled tower, with the endless wilderness in the distance, Baili Xuance jumped on the raised wall of the Great Wall, opened his arms, and said with a chuckle while enjoying the slight coolness brought by the breeze.
"It's a wilderness, but do you know that many years ago, it was actually an ancient forest, because of the invasion of monsters, which caused the destruction of life, and the originally beautiful primeval forest is now a desert."
Kai followed Baili Xuance's gaze and looked at the endless desert, bleak, bleak, looking at the past, he couldn't see where the end was, he could only see a distant horizon, if he looked at it for a long time, he could occasionally see a few slow-moving black dots. Kai knew that it was the "monster" in the mouths of Baili Xuance and Mulan.
"Where did all this stuff come from?"
Kai asked, and Baili Xuance also knew that "these things" Kai was referring to those monsters.
"Where exactly it came from, no one knows."
Baili Xuance shook his head, turned around and jumped off the wall, "But many old people say that they come from another world, a place we call the Demon Realm, more than three thousand years ago, outside the Great Wall, that is, about that place. ”
Baili Xuance pointed to the wilderness horizon in the distance and continued, "At the end of there, there is a bottomless canyon, more than three thousand years ago, a mysterious guy came, that guy does not belong to this world, because he has power beyond this world, no one knows where he came from, and no one knows the purpose of his coming here. It's just that later some people speculated that he should have been chased here, because after that guy came to this world, another mysterious force descended on him. After a great battle, the two did not destroy this continent, but left a bottomless canyon that was thousands of miles long in that place. And these monsters began to appear in our world one after another after that. ”
Three thousand years ago?
Mysterious aliens?
War?
Gorge?
Kai heard it a little vaguely, but he understood the general meaning, it should be that three thousand years ago, a guy who didn't belong to this world came here, and fought with another one or a group of beings who also didn't belong here, and then left a canyon, and those monsters came from this canyon, so if you say that......
"Therefore, later generations speculate that the reason why monsters appear in our world should be that battle three thousand years ago, which opened a passage from the demon world to our world."
The Demon Realm, our world......
"Is there really a world other than ours?" Kai was a little confused.
"At first, I didn't believe it, but after seeing so many creatures that don't belong to our world, I can't help but disbelieve it." Baili Xuance also looked very helpless. But then he regained his liveliness when they first met.
"Now, Brother Kai, let me ask you a question, do you know how many people there are in our Great Wall Guards now?"
This one......
Kai glanced around, he hadn't noticed this before, but looking at the soldiers who patrolled every minute or so around him, there must be not too many people. Then think about the countless monsters out there, if you want to fight them, you have to at least ......
"Five...... Half a million? ”
He hesitated to say this number, his brows furrowed slightly, those monsters are far more powerful than the combat effectiveness of the Terran soldiers, and if the Great Wall Guards want to defend this Great Wall, they must at least need a million male divisions to be possible, he said 500,000, which is already a relatively conservative number.
"No, no, no, I guessed wrong."
Baili Xuance shook his head, grinned, stretched out a hand, and compared the number of eight, "Let me give you a hint, the number of our warriors is probably related to this number." ”
Eight?
"Eight hundred thousand?"
Kai frowned slightly, this should be pretty good, although it is still a little short of a million heroes, but no matter how you say it, it can be regarded as a battle, if everything goes well, maybe you can win the final victory.
"No, no, no."
Baili Xuance shook his head, rolled his eyes and glanced at Kai, and said helplessly, "You think too much Brother Kai, 800,000?" If we had 800,000 warriors, why would we be cowering in this great wall? We have already sent troops to take the initiative to attack, in fact, our Great Wall Guards here are less than 80,000 soldiers. ”
"Eighty thousand?"
Kai frowned, no matter how stupid he was, he wouldn't think that with 80,000 Terran soldiers who had no characteristics, he would be able to fight against the endless monsters outside.
"yes."
Baili Xuance sighed slowly, he had always been naughty like a child before, but at this moment, like a patriotic old man who was worried about the country and the people, he touched the old city wall under his feet and said.
"Xuan Ce joined the Great Wall Guards for six years, six years ago, there were still 130,000 soldiers in the Great Wall Guards, and the commander of the Great Wall Guards at that time was still in charge of Uncle Hua, in the blink of an eye, six years have passed, and the monsters outside the city walls have not subsided, but the people around Xuan Ce have fallen one after another. Maybe one day, Xuan Ce will die in a battle with monsters, just like them. It's just that Xuan Ce is so big, all his memories stay in the Great Wall Guards, Xuan Ce doesn't hate this, but if he has the opportunity, Xuan Ce really wants to take a look at other places, I heard that Chang'an City, where the Supreme Alliance is located, is now the most prosperous city of the human race, if there is a chance, Xuan Ce really wants to take a look. ”
Looking at Baili Xuan Ce smiling, but his face was full of longing fantasies, Kai's mood suddenly became heavy, he didn't know why he forgot his previous memories, maybe he also had the same longing as Xuan Ce before, but now he doesn't remember, looking at the young man in front of him who is younger than himself to make this simple wish, his heart is mixed.
In troubled times, in this troubled times, there may be many people like Xuan Ce, who don't want to be prosperous and rich, and only live for the simplest wishes, even ...... Just want to live.
"The High Alliance...... What kind of existence is it? ”
Organize all the people on the continent to fight against monsters? Who are they? Where does the confidence come from?
"The Supreme Alliance has always been composed of three forces, the Scorching Sun Temple, the Radiant Moon Temple, and the world-famous Confucian Dao."
Xuan Ce was really diverted and began to talk about these things with great interest, "And in fact, many years ago, the Scorching Sun Temple and the Huiyue Temple belonged to the same lineage, and they were both the forces of the Yin and Yang Holy Sect, but later the Holy Sect Master fell, and before the new Sect Master could take office, there was a disagreement between the Scorching Sun Temple and the Huiyue Temple, the Scorching Sun Temple advocated conquering the Scorching Sun and depriving the Scorching Sun of its power for its own use, while the Huiyue Temple advocated respecting the Scorching Sun as a god and using the power of the Bright Moon, the two were very different, so there was a disagreement. The way of Confucianism is a force that has only emerged in recent years, although it is Confucianism, but it is a cultural relic, and the three parties jointly govern the supreme alliance, and the power is almost comparable, but there is no worry about one side dominating. ”
I see.
Kai nodded to himself, the Supreme Alliance comes from the power gathered by many parties, which is actually quite good, it is better than a certain force in power alone, in case there is some deviation in decision-making, there is not even a check and balance.
So......
"Mulan...... What kind of person is he? ”
For the first person he met in his memory, Kai was a little curious, what kind of experience would make a woman who should be weak become tougher than a man.
"You said Sister Mulan, in fact, she is quite pitiful."
Baili Xuance's face changed in an instant, becoming a little gloomy, he himself knew that although he was very naughty and always bold, he was not stupid, he knew what to do and what not to do, and he still respected Hua Mulan very much.
