Chapter 14: The Return of the Hero
The four horsemen hovering in the sky drove away all the angels. Just as they were about to land, they saw smoke and dust rising in the distance. Immediately after that, everyone felt the temperature plummet. On the other hand, there is a white expanse in the distance.
It's like a blizzard, but it's summer! Everywhere the blizzard passed, all the vegetation was frozen.
"Everyone! Retreat into the bunker to take refuge! The old, majestic voice of the rebel commander was heard through the Iron City Fortress through a megaphone device. In an instant, the rebel army retreated in an orderly manner from the entrances scattered throughout the Iron City fortress into the bunker that had been prepared.
This is the shelter of the Iron City Fortress specially prepared to deal with the attack of angels. It's hidden under the Iron City Fortress. Its area is large enough to accommodate the inhabitants of the entire Iron City Fortress and all the warriors.
"Four Horsemen! Return to Apocalypse Bootcamp right now! Zhao Qingyu's voice reached the ears of the four through the communication system of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
Without much stopping, the Four Horsemen circled in the sky for a week, and then landed in the weather camp like four meteors of different colors.
returned to the training camp and removed the armor on their bodies, but the four of them found that Zhao Qingyu was already waiting there.
"Well done!" Zhao Qingyu looked at the four of them with a smile and appreciation.
"Instructor! What's going on? Chen Yi couldn't help but ask first.
"Because you killed Amra, the guardian angel of the first layer of the Sanctuary, the first layer of the Sanctuary no longer exists. When the first layer of the Sanctuary collapses, the second layer of the Sanctuary will begin to extend until it replaces the original first-layer Sanctuary. Zhao Qingyu explained.
"But what's going on with this blizzard?" Because they were in the sky, the Four Horsemen could clearly see that there was an unprecedented blizzard sweeping in the distance.
"As far as I know, the second layer of the Sanctuary is called the Extreme Cold Sanctuary, a frozen realm covered in frost and wind and snow. But rest assured, our rebels are prepared for this. Now follow me into the bunker! After the blizzard is over, we'll talk about reclaiming the second layer of sanctuary! Zhao Qingyu patted Chen Yi on the shoulder excitedly, and then led the four knights into the bunker from the entrance of the weather training camp.
Just after the four of them entered the bunker, a blizzard swept through the entire Iron City fortress, and in an instant, ice and snow fell on the world, and everything was covered with a thick layer of frost, but fortunately, the rebels were prepared. All men and supplies have been moved to the bunker beforehand.
Chen Yi, who entered the bunker, was almost shocked by the scene in front of him. What kind of bunker is this! It's an underground city! It is no wonder that the rebels have been able to survive the encirclement and suppression of the angels again and again.
This underground city is no different from the aboveground. Lighting systems, heating systems, commercial systems, and even agricultural systems located underground. This is enough for the people who live here to avoid any disaster.
In the underground city, there are even houses carved out of the ground in the streets. It's just another world.
"How? This is the whole picture of the Iron City Fortress! ”
Seeing everyone talking casually on the streets here, everyone had a smile on their faces. The news of the Four Horsemen's defeat of the angels in the sky has spread to every street here for the first time. Everyone's face was filled with excitement.
Wearing rebel uniforms was greeted by cheers, chanting the name of the rebels and throwing flowers at them. The hero's treatment can only be given to the hero.
"Look! It's the Four Horsemen! "I don't know who shouted out the identities of the four Chenyi first. Immediately afterwards, the four teenagers were overwhelmed by the enthusiastic crowd.
"These people? How will you know about us? The four of Chen Yi looked at Zhao Qingyu a little bewildered. After all, the four of them appeared on the battlefield wearing Apocalypse armor all over their bodies, and no one had ever seen their faces.
But when they looked up and saw the huge round screen standing in the middle of the underground city, they knew why. The picture of the four horsemen fighting angels in the sky is constantly playing, and the faces of the four people and the posture of the four horsemen when driving them are displayed there. The rebels actually broadcast the battle live underground.
"Instructor! What's going on here? Chen Yi asked.
"It's a decision from above! Humanity has been succumbing to the power of angels for a long time. Although we are still resisting, many people's faith has begun to waver, they have become afraid of angels, and people have begun to think that angels are invincible. That Guan Zikun's betrayal of the rebels reminded the commander of this question. People need heroes, they need to see that we have heroes who can stand up to the angels, and you! It's a hero! Zhao Qingyu looked at the four of them so seriously for the first time and said.
"Now! Enjoy the treatment of a hero! After that, Zhao Qingyu seemed to smile meaningfully, and then walked out of the crowd.
Some people are destined to enjoy glory, while others are destined to hide behind it. Everyone knows that the Four Horsemen are the heroes who defeated the angels, but no one knows that Zhao Qingyu, who created these four heroes, is a middle-aged man who doesn't seem to be very conspicuous in the crowd.
In an instant, cheers, applause, and screams echoed around Chen Yi and the other four. The smell of flowers reverberates around and the slightly sweet first kisses offered by passionate girls.
Feeling the slightly moist cheeks, Chenyi was a little overwhelmed. But at this time. A piece of cold lips was printed on the forehead of the shirt. When those lips left, Chen Yi saw Ling Fei's slightly reddened cheeks, probably a little excited because of the first victory. But
But at this time, looking at Ling Fei again, after kissing Chen Yi, he looked around at the passionate girls who were about to rush up one by one and seemed to be going to devour Chen Yi alive. It's like a girl's expression when she is protecting her beloved doll.
"Ling Fei!? What are you doing? Chen Yi touched his lips and felt a little overwhelmed.
"Nothing! Won! Rejoice! Seemingly a little dissatisfied with the performance of the shirt, Ling Fei glared at Chen Yi and turned away, leaving Chen Yi alone at a loss.
At the same time, in a tall building in the distance, Zhao Qingyu was looking at the scene in front of him with the commander. It's just that when the white-haired commander saw Ling Fei kissing Chen Yi's hand, he frowned slightly.
"Ling Fei, this girl is getting more and more disagreeable!" The commander said with a frown.
"Maybe it's just a little bit of excitement because of the first win." Zhao Qingyu explained on the side.
"What's the matter? Do you think my granddaughter doesn't deserve the stupid boy you brought back? ”
"Your Excellency, is it really necessary for us to do this? After all, the four of them are fighters, not stars. I'm afraid there will be problems if I'm so sought after! Zhao Qingyu really couldn't think of anything to deal with the old chief, so he had no choice but to change the topic.
"Qingyu! I told you a long time ago that this battle is not a one-man battle. It's all of us, including these ordinary people. Sometimes war cannot be fought by faith and perseverance alone, and sometimes some encouragement is needed. People have been suppressed by angels for too long, and they need heroes like the Four Horsemen! We need more! The first level of the Sanctuary has collapsed, and this is an unprecedented victory, but an even tougher battle awaits us, and within a week, the ground above us will be completely frozen. Until then, we must restore the confidence of our people. The Commander looked at the cheers in the city and sighed.
As a leader, you should always remain calm, even when others are enjoying the carnival and joy, and always think about the possible future crises.
