Chapter 47: The Oath

The sky was gray and dreary, without a trace of sunshine.

The dark clouds as thick as smog covered the huge sun that baked the earth, blocked the pouring sun, and made the whole world appear a gray color, it was like a mountain squeezing down, pressing on the hearts of everyone in the city below.

At this time, the prosperity of Area A is no longer there, and the ruins and messes everywhere make people feel sad.

On the streets, groups of soldiers were escorting the residents to evacuate, and although everyone here was so reluctant, they could only hold back their grief and evacuate towards the southeast of the valley in Qinghu Town, East of Area C, towards the East Gate.

Looking at the ruined city, more than a thousand passing students, including teachers, were all silent, and after rushing like this for more than half an hour, finally, Shangguan Yufeng and a group of high-level officers took them to the cemetery in the east of Area A.

Walking into the doorless entrance, looking at the rows of code-gray tombstones standing on the wide lawn inside, Shangguan Yufeng suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice:

"Here... It is the cemetery garden in the east of our Ruxia, which is... We are like the burial ground of summer warriors! ā€

At this moment, more than a thousand pairs of eyes were staring straight ahead, the rows of dense and gray tombstones.

Looking at the blood-red names engraved on each tombstone, and looking at the old photos with smiling faces hanging next to the tombstones, their hearts sank instantly.

"Over the years, our warriors have sacrificed continuously, including many of your predecessors of mecha warriors, who have been sleeping for a long time in order to protect Ruxia and protect the residents. And the bones of more warriors are outside the crystal wall, their bodies, their blood, and their souls are buried in the earth outside the crystal wall, and they are guarding our Ruxia land all the time! ā€

At this moment, the audience was silent, except for Shangguan Yufeng's dull voice, which sounded like a kind of announcement, telling the painful facts to more than a thousand children, and like a kind of outpouring, telling the sorrow in his heart to the young children behind him.

"I hope that everyone here will have the consciousness of a soldier and the spirit of dedication! Because it is the way of inheritance in the hearts of each of our warriors! ā€

"Guard! I hope that you will fight for protection, dedicate yourself to protection, and live strong for protection! ā€

The sound fell, and the heavy breath suddenly diffused, and all the students present, including the teachers, only felt that the gray and gloomy sky above their heads was lower, and they felt a feeling of not being able to breathe in their hearts.

At this moment, there was no door in the rear, and suddenly a boy and a girl came to the child, they looked only seven or eight years old, each holding a white chrysanthemum in their arms, and went straight through the thousand-person procession and entered the tombstone area.

The two children walked to the tombstone on the left side of the corridor in the second row and stopped. Then he put the white chrysanthemum in his hand under the two tombstone stands side by side and spoke.

"Mom and Dad! Lingling misses you! ā€

"Mom and Dad! I miss you! ā€

The voices of the girl and the boy came out almost in unison, they looked at the familiar photo on the tombstone, looked at the warm smiling face in the photo, and suddenly their bright eyes turned red, and they began to talk about the thoughts in their hearts.

……

"Mom and Dad, I heard from my uncle that we are about to leave Ruxia, and Lingling and my brother will not be able to come to see you again in the future, I hope you will be well in the world over there!"

"My brother and I will definitely listen to our uncle, and don't worry too much about us, Lingling has grown up, I will definitely protect my brother!"

The girl, who looked a little bigger, had tears in her pretty eyes, but she still smiled strongly, and said the last words.

"Woo... Mom and Dad! I miss you so much..."

Eventually, the girl took her brother's little hand and left with the boy who kept looking back.

However, when passing by the trainee team, the girl waved a small pink fist at Shangguan Yufeng at the front and said, "Come on, uncles!" ā€

From beginning to end, the field was as quiet as a needle, and there was no sound to disturb the young brothers.

And Shangguan Yufeng was the same, he turned around and looked at the two young backs that were gradually disappearing, thinking of the girl's strong smiling face, and the simple and immature cheer!

Suddenly, the highest officer in Ruxia City, his eyes were red, he quickly turned his body, turned his back to the students, and said loudly and solemnly: "Take the oath!" ā€

In the solemn voice, with a roar of unwillingness and responsibility, all the students and teachers in the rear suddenly woke up.

"Stomp!"

More than a thousand soldiers who had been waiting outside for a long time received the order and walked in unison, holding military uniforms with different epaulettes in their hands and handing them to the students and teachers.

After doing all this, he turned away and went back to the outside to standby.

And among these same military uniforms, there are three kinds of epaulettes, the first is a gold epaulette without gold thread, inlaid with a golden five-pointed star emblem, the second is two, and the third is three.

Three are lined up separately, soldiers, sergeants, and non-commissioned officers!

More than 1,000 ordinary trainees are all soldiers with a golden five-pointed star emblem in military uniforms, while teachers and special students who have not broken through to the first order are sergeants with two star insignia, and the last 20 or so class teachers and individual teachers who have broken through the first order are three star insignia, the military uniforms of non-commissioned officers.

"Bang!"

Shangguan Yufeng turned around and looked at the students who had already taken their military uniforms, and suddenly his body straightened, his right hand clenched into a fist, and his fist was facing the sky, and he slammed against his left chest.

"Bang bang!"

The high-ranking officers beside him also quickly made a military salute like him.

Seeing this, all the students and teachers below hurriedly put their uniforms on their left hands, and then followed the military salute, clenching their fists with their right hands facing the sky, and sticking them to their left chests.

"Bang bang bang!"

The sound of fists against the left chest came out in unison, neat and powerful.

Looking at the straight body and the fists clinging to his heart, Shangguan Yufeng took a deep breath, and in the next moment, a more solemn voice sounded!

"Obedience, loyalty, rigor, and strength!" A deep and powerful voice sounded, and the student teachers below, including a group of high-ranking officers, all followed aloud and swore an oath.

"Obedience, loyalty, rigor, and strength!"

"For the sake of our inhabitants, for the sake of our land, for the sake of the whole Gravia of our human race! I, Shangguan Yufeng, will sacrifice my soul for the oath! ā€

"For the sake of our residents...... I—*** will give my soul for the oath! ā€

"My body was born to protect the city!"

……

"My blood is shed to protect the land!"

……

"My heart beats to protect humanity!"

……

"When the disaster comes, when the demon beast invades, for the future of our human race, for the dream of our human race, and for the dawn of our entire Gravia, I will give my life!"

……

"Fight for the land of the Terrans!"

"Fight for the land of the Terrans!"

The neat and rigorous voice was like a song of oaths, at this moment, all shouted out, and the voice of the screams, mixed with the belief of protection and dedication, directly pierced through the dark clouds that covered the sky and the earth, and resounded in the distant sky.
