Chapter 159: The End of an Era

Ten years ago.

Kyoto.

Inside a heavily guarded workplace.

A well-dressed middle-aged man was quietly watching a live broadcast of a fight.

There were six or seven more people standing behind him, all of them staring intently at the screen like him.

This is the Huaxia Propaganda Department.

As for the most important functions, it goes without saying.

After looking at it for a moment, the middle-aged man laughed.

"Although it has not yet reached the finals, I can already feel that this first class of elite school competition will be a great success. ”

A person behind him smiled and said: "Yes, minister, these students are more resilient than we imagined, I think the second competition for elite schools next year can be opened to the whole people live broadcast, so that ordinary people can also see this grand event."

Young people, they are all bloody, and after watching such a battle, there will definitely be more people who will strive to become Red Mist warriors. ”

His words immediately resonated with several colleagues, and another laughed: "I just don't know who will win tomorrow between Lingzhou Zhanda and Kyoto University...... Hehe, no matter who wins, we're going to have to hype it up anyway.

Old famous schools, emerging strong schools, there are so many things to write about. ”

The middle-aged man nodded slightly when he heard this.

"Go ahead and write a press release now, write two copies, and try to get it right in an hour as soon as the fighting is over tomorrow night, and get the news in the headlines in two hours.

Alas, in recent years, there have been fewer and fewer people who are willing to apply for the Red Mist Warrior major and join the army...... Otherwise, there is really no need for such an internal battle. ”

"Okay, Minister, I'll write it!"

......

Eight o'clock the next night.

The Kyoto University Training Center is surrounded by people.

Although this battle for elite schools is only broadcast live within the universities, there are many big names who are watching this battle in particular.

Not only because of the need for publicity, but also because of the battle of educational concepts.

They were also curious about whether the previous education model was more suitable for the Red Mist Warriors, or the new education model was more suitable for the Red Mist Warriors.

So, it's really not just a battle of ten people from two schools.

There are a lot of deep things involved behind it.

After waiting for a while, the commentator, the referee, and the students of the two universities were all in place.

The narrator smiled at this time: "It took more than half a month! We finally waited for this last battle!"

Is Kyoto University, which has a history of nearly 200 years, stronger, or Lingzhou War University, which was founded by Mr. Mo Wangchuan?

Let's wait and see!

Next, please send the first student from each side to participate in the battle!"

As the words fell, one person from each side of Kyoto University and Lingzhou War University boarded the arena.

The audience immediately cheered, and the number of people cheering for both sides was evenly matched.

Needless to say, Kyoto University is the home stadium.

And Lingzhou Zhanda was founded by Mo Wangchuan, who was the only son of Mo Lingyu's God of War.

Just this identity can make him a huge number of fans.

Not to mention that he was also a man of the year in the entire era of great exploration, leading the army to the south to continuously regain lost territory, until he successfully recovered his hometown.

Then he founded a university in his hometown.

There is no need to ascend to the heights, and a large number of strong people choose to follow and become teachers at this university.

There are also many gifted students who are willing to believe him and apply for this new university.

In just four years, although it is not well known to the general public, it has grown into a recognized famous school in the academy.

At this time, the first class of students had not yet graduated.

Such an inspirational experience made many people look forward to Lingzhou Zhan Neng defeating Kyoto University in one fell swoop and creating a miracle.

......

Lingzhou is on the big side.

Ling Hanxing fidgeted, and Chen Che next to him comforted him when he saw this: "Hanxing, don't be so nervous, the classmates and teachers in the school must be looking at us through the screen now, you are too embarrassed to do this." ”

Ling Hanxing sat down and said with a cramped expression: "Boss! You said it lightly! This is the first battle for a prestigious school! Do you know what this means?

Today, if we win, we will become recognized as the number one school!

Next year, we will be able to recruit more excellent teachers and attract more excellent students.

Since then, the snowball of our school has been getting bigger and bigger, and what will be the second and third in the future...... The title of the first school will be ours!

This is a great responsibility, can I not be nervous?"

Chen Che smiled and said, "Why don't you invite Teacher Wang to come over and give you psychological counseling?"

"Forget it...... It's too embarrassing to be seen by classmates at school. ”

Ling Hanxing waved his hand again and again, and then sat down.

His legs were shaking with nervousness, and his hands were rubbing back and forth.

Chen Che shook his head and smiled when he saw this scene.

Not long after Ling Hanxing entered the school, a big change occurred in his family, and he almost collapsed.

It was his classmates and teachers at school who cheered him up.

So he has made school his home ever since.

He has a very deep affection for the school.

Of course...... Why not?

Chen Che looked at a camera in the heights, and a confident smile appeared on his face.

Today, victory no matter what!

Prepare for the future of your school!

At this time, the high-pitched voice of the commentator sounded in the training center.

"The first battle! by Mu Feng of Kyoto University's Hope College vs. Wang Xun of Lingzhou War University's War God Academy!"

There was cheering in the training center.

......

At the same time, distant Lingzhou.

On the playground of the Lingzhou War University, thousands of people gathered together, sitting on the bench and looking at a huge screen erected on the edge of the playground.

In the corner of the edge, a freshman looked at the screen and suddenly said excitedly: "Look! Senior Chen Che is smiling at us!"

"Yes...... Hey. ”

"I don't know if I have a chance to enter the God of War Academy......"

The freshman suddenly became melancholy again.

Although the God of War Academy was temporarily formed by the major academies, it only has symbolic meaning, Senior Chen Che and they will still go to their respective academies to study after they come back, but no matter what, it is an honor.

"Just you, don't dream, you have to be in the top ten students in the school to have a little hope. ”

The student next to him struck mercilessly.

"Alas...... Also. ”

"Don't be crooked! The battle begins!"

......

The other side.

A girl was surrounded by several other female classmates in her class.

The female classmates teased the girl from time to time.

"I bet! Chen Che is definitely smiling at you!"

"Don't mess around......"

The girl was a little embarrassed, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

"What nonsense, don't we know the relationship between you and Chen Che? haha...... You see your face is red!"

"Su Xiaoyun, you have to be careful! In the past, you only had to guard against us, but this time, if Chen Che becomes the Lord of Hope, you will have to guard against the girls from other schools!"

"I ...... I believe in him. ”

The girl's voice was like a gnat.

Hearing this, the surrounding girls suddenly became a mess,

"I believe in him~ so numb!"

"Torture me! The single dog is uncomfortable......"

......

The girl listened to the ridicule of her classmates, raised her head, and looked at the determined-eyed young man on the big screen, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.

......

At this moment, on the big screen, the two students began to fight.

The huge playground gradually fell silent, and everyone's eyes were on the big screen.

I hope that the five people who walked out of the school can create miracles.

......

More than an hour later.

In the arena of the Kyoto University Training Center, Chen Che received a blow from Zuo Shengtian, the captain of Kyoto University, and then kicked Zuo Shengtian out of the arena with one kick.

The entire training center was boiling in an instant!

Some cheered loudly, others had gloomy expressions.

"I announce! Chen Che of the War God Academy of Lingzhou War University will take over Hope!

Lingzhou War University won the first battle for famous schools!

As an old man chanted, the five students of Lingzhou War University in the arena raised the artifact that meant hope.

......

On the side of the audience, Shen Zhenping laughed, completely ignoring the feelings of a person with a gray face next to him.

"How about it?Old Zhou, let's still be stronger in our God of War Academy, you hope the academy is almost meaningful......"

"Hmph! Luck! Next year we will win!"

Although the man said so, his eyes were full of envy, jealousy and hatred.

Shen Zhenping patted him on the shoulder.

"Lao Zhou, why don't you go to Lingzhou with me, follow me, and I'll arrange a position for you as the vice president of the God of War School, what do you think?"

The man's cheeks twitched slightly, and to be honest, he was really a little moved.

But after thinking about it, he shook his head again and again.

"No, no, you're already gone, if I leave again, the teacher will pick my skin!"

"Don't worry! The teacher is no match for our principal!"

As he spoke, a light cough suddenly came from behind him.

Shen Zhenping's face stiffened slightly, and then he immediately sat up.

"Alas, I haven't seen the teacher for a long time, so I miss him ......"

......

Behind him stood an old man of sixty or seventy years old at this time, and when he heard this, he shook his head and smiled, and then looked at the five young people in the arena, and his eyes gradually became deeper.

Maybe...... Kyoto University should indeed make some changes.

......

Inside the Propaganda Department.

The minister had already stood up at this moment and began to give command.

"One hour! Finish the draft within an hour, and then send the news that Lingzhou War University won the first place in the headlines!"

"I don't need to teach you how to write! All in all, the more inspirational the better!"

"Remember, don't put all the videos out, just put one or two wonderful ones to arouse the curiosity of the public. ”

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison.

......

As for the playground of Lingzhou War University.

At this time, it has become a sea of joy, and many students and teachers hugged each other and cheered together.

On the rooftop of the school's teaching building, an old man with white hair looked at this scene with a relieved expression.

Moments later, his voice resounded through the campus.

"To celebrate our honor of being the number one school, the cafeteria is open for free for seven days!"

As the words fell, the people on the playground became more and more jubilant.

"These kids...... It's so cute. ”

The old man muttered, and then subconsciously looked at a huge humanoid statue at the school gate.

Thinking back to the past, a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Father...... I can't catch up with you in terms of strength in my life, but one day, there will be students in our school who will surpass you, and this can be regarded as me surpassing you in disguise......"

A gentle breeze blew through his gray hair.

The old man didn't care.

But for some reason, the wind is getting stronger.

In addition, there was a hint of fishy smell in the wind.

It made him frown.

Subconsciously raised his head to look at the southern sky, and at some point, it had become red.

Bang!

There was a thunderous explosion!

A big hole suddenly appeared in the crimson sky of the south!

It's like the sky is falling!

Seeing this scene, the old man's pupils contracted violently, and the balcony at hand was directly shocked into powder by him!

After thinking of a possibility, his face, which had always been unfazed, became very flustered!

Next second!

His voice resounded through the school again!

"All students!!

Evacuate the school immediately! Teachers keep order! Take the students away!

Leave everything behind!"

The teachers and students on the playground were a little unable to come back to their senses, and they were all stunned in place.

At this time, someone finally noticed the change in the sky in the distance.

A teacher reacted and shouted, "Withdraw!"

When the words fell, the black hole in the sky descended instantly!

An indescribable power crushed down, and many students were directly shocked to the ground under that powerful power!

The figure of the old man on the top floor of the teaching building flashed and rushed directly into the black hole.

At the same time, a large black cloud came into the distance in the sky.

After a few seconds, everyone could see what it was.

Lots of flying monsters!

Cover the sky!

As far as the eye can see, almost all of them are terrifying existences with a body size of tens of meters!

"Take the students on a run!"

The old man's angry roar came from the clouds.

The group of people below finally all reacted and quickly evacuated.

But how can their speed match the speed of those powerful monsters?

In just ten seconds, a monster descended on the interior of the Lingzhou Battle Great.

With just one dive, several students were killed.

Seeing this, a teacher immediately rushed over and stopped the monster.

But there are more than 100 teachers in Lingzhou War University!

And there are hundreds of huge flying monsters in the sky, not to mention that some of them are carrying other monsters on their backs.

How can this be resisted?

So they can only fight monsters while watching a large number of students being chased by monsters and then killed.

Seeing that there was no way to escape, one of the students shouted, "Teacher, you guys go quickly! These monsters can't be stopped!"

"Teacher! Stay in the green mountains! Don't be afraid of running out of firewood! Leave us alone! Hurry up!"

Listening to the sad cries of the students, all the teachers had tears in their eyes and looked sad and indignant.

Who would have thought that life would only take a minute to go from extremely happy to extremely sad.

When a teacher saw his students torn to pieces by the monster, he hissed and shouted: "As a human teacher, you should lead by example! How can you abandon your students! Run first!"

Another teacher also shouted: "If we run away, how will we face the world in the future, how will we face the parents who sent you to school!"

Today! Only by martyrdom! Practicing the school motto! Although you and I die! The will lasts forever!"

"Chen Che, they didn't admit defeat! How can those of us who are teachers admit defeat! You go! As long as you can leave one today! Teacher, I will die without regrets!"

......

For a while, the sound of fierce battles, roars, cries, and desperate cries filled the entire campus of Lingzhou Zhan University.

......

On the edge of the school, in a safe house.

A girl hugged Mo Chuxin, who was only eight or nine years old, and comforted softly: "Little Chuxin, don't be afraid...... It's okay......"

As she spoke, she began to cry first.

The roaring footsteps outside were getting closer.

She glanced out through the vent, only to see a flying monster jumping down from a giant ape seven or eight meters tall.

The great ape roared and galloped, and it wouldn't be long before it stepped on the cramped safe house.

Seeing this scene, she took a deep breath, squeezed out a smile, and said to Mo Chuxin: "Little girl, don't move here, I'll go out for a while." ”

With that, she put down Mo Chuxin and rushed out.

Seeing this, the great ape immediately chased after her.

On the way to escape, she saw two classmates and immediately shouted: "Liu Yu!

Before she could continue to talk more, or even point the way, she had already run hundreds of meters away.

Hearing this, the two boys immediately went to the nearby safe house to look for it, and it didn't take long for them to find Mo Chuxin who was huddled in the safe house.

The safe house can only protect against some weak monsters, and like this now, the safe house is like a closed coffin.

The two hurriedly hugged Mo Chuxin out and tried to run outside the school.

But it can't be ......

There are just too many powerful monsters.

The smell of death is everywhere.

Nearly half of the hundreds of teachers over there have fallen under the siege of a large number of monsters.

But even so, I still couldn't save many students.

There is a white light in the black hole in the sky, and the white light is getting dimmer and dimmer.

The massive humanoid statue in the doorway collapsed and shattered.

......

An hour later.

Inside the Kyoto Public Relations Department.

The middle-aged man was checking the press release, a smile on his face.

Just then, he suddenly received a phone call.

"Hey ......"

Before he could ask anything, the man on the phone said something directly.

The middle-aged man's face turned pale when he heard this, and his whole body trembled violently.

"What did you say?

"Lingzhou Zhanda was attacked by a super class of monsters......! With 120 teachers from the school...... There are very few students who survived!"

Syllable!

The phone in the middle-aged man's hand fell in response, and the whole person fell into his seat.

After a long time, he reacted, grabbed a person casually and shouted, "Withdraw...... Revoke all circulars!"

......

Heavy rain overnight.

On the train back to Lingzhou from Kyoto, Shen Zhenping and several leading teachers and Chen Che talked and laughed.

At this time, Shen Zhenping also received a phone call.

After listening to this, he froze there, and then, the tears in his eyes could not stop falling.

Chen Che sensed his abnormality and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Shen Zhenping put down the phone, and for a while he didn't know how to say to these students who were in a state of extreme excitement.

After a long time......

He slammed open the train door and said in a hoarse voice, "School...... Something happened! We're going back right now!"

With that, he jumped off the speeding train and ran along the tracks.

The other people were stunned for a while, and they were stunned in place and didn't know what to do.

Chen Che was the first to react, jumped off the train, and followed behind Shen Zhenping.

......

Half a day later.

Several people were exhausted and staggered back to the front of the campus of Lingzhou Zhan University.

Saw a ruin.

The rubble was littered with staff in hazmat suits, examining corpses.

In the distance, above a remnant high-rise building, the figures of Wudao stood silently.

The one in the middle is the only god of war in the three provinces of the Southern Dao, the Western Dao, and the Southwest Dao.

The other four are his companions.

Shen Zhenping glanced at the god of war, and then at the corpses covered with white cloth all over the ground, and suddenly fell to his knees, crying silently.

At this time, a staff member walked over next to him and said sadly: "Dean Shen, the statistics have been completed......

All the teachers in Lingzhou War University were killed in battle, and the students in the school were ...... Only six survived. ”

When Ni Jiaqiang, Wang Yanqiu and the others who followed behind Shen Zhenping heard this, they felt like the sky had fallen, and they all froze in place.

In the distance, several survivors covered in wounds approached with a little white-haired girl in their arms, squeezing out a smile that was more ugly than crying.

"Dean...... We kept our little heart...... Saved the principal's granddaughter ......"

Wang Yanqiu next to her hugged Mo Chuxin when she heard this, and then cried loudly, and for a while, several teachers all cried bitterly.

......

Chen Che, Ling Hanxing and several other students kept lifting the white cloth to check on the corpses.

Most of the corpses were no longer in shape, but they could still tell that they were classmates they were familiar with.

The more they looked at their eyes, the more dazed they became, at this moment, they seemed to be like machines, their brains were blank, and they only knew how to repeat an action.

......

At last.

Chen Che knelt in front of a stretcher.

On the stretcher lay a female corpse, with only a slender hand exposed.

Looking at that hand, Chen Che looked up at the sky, tears rolled down, and a terrible and desperate roar came out of his mouth, and the sound shook for miles.

Several surrounding staff couldn't help but cry when they saw this.

Ling Hanxing and the others ran wildly for most of the day, and they were already exhausted, and after a long time of turning over the corpse, they could no longer support it and lay on the ground.

Who would have thought......

After trying to win the title of No. 1 school, they were greeted not by the cheers of their classmates and teachers, but by such a tragic scene.

......

A day later, many of the corpses in the Lingzhou War were cleaned up.

Many bigwigs also rushed to Lingzhou.

In a temporary command post not far from Lingzhou Zhanda, Shen Zhenping knelt in front of an old man and said tremblingly:

"Teacher...... Please let me inherit the principal's legacy!

Hearing this, the old man sighed lightly, and said helplessly: "Zhenping, rebuild the Lingzhou War University, what are you going to rebuild? Just five of you teachers and a dozen students?"

Shen Zhenping raised his head with tears in his eyes: "The night before...... Our school excavator and chef students are out on assignment...... They survived.

I can build on them...... Rebuild the Lingzhou War. ”

The old man shook his head: "Zhenping, you haven't figured out what's going on......"

As he spoke, he took out a map and placed it in front of Shen Zhenping.

"Look...... Your school is less than a hundred miles away from the Lingzhou military base.

Judging from the surveillance, the group of monsters came from the direction of the Lingzhou military base.

But the Lingzhou military base was unscathed, do you know why?"

Shen Zhenping was speechless, his brain was in chaos at this time, and he couldn't think calmly at all.

"The super-class monsters, like us humans, have intelligence, and this attack is not an accident.

That super monster obviously had the strength to destroy the Lingzhou military base, but it didn't do it, but led its monsters directly over the military base and raided your school......

It's revenge, you know?

Retaliation against your school. ”

Shen Zhenping's tears rolled down, and he didn't know what to say.

A trace of unbearability flashed in the old man's eyes, and he continued: "Alas, you also know that five years ago, we transferred a large number of strong people because of that plan.

As a result, the progress of city development has slowed down considerably, and some cities that have been reclaimed for a long time have even begun to be threatened by monsters again.

3 days ago...... Western border cities have been forced to use nuclear weapons.

Thereupon...... The night before, the revenge came, and it came so violently. ”

Shen Zhenping leaned over and cried.

The success of the Great Pioneer Era gave mankind hope of victory.

A super-class monster hasn't been seen in decades.

Some of the scruples of human beings are also gradually disappearing.

I didn't expect it...... It was just a breakthrough in the bottom line, and it was met with such a fierce revenge from the monster.

"Zhenping, you've also seen the monitoring, you should be able to see that the monster is in the same vein as the super monster in the battle of the Heavenly Trench Pass.

Why did it choose Lingzhou Zhanda as the target of retaliation? Do you understand?

Not only because Lingzhou Zhanda has become the first school and has a special status, but also because Lingzhou Zhanda is a university founded by Mo Lingyu's only son of the God of War......

It's a grudge...... That's why I chose your school.

You say, if you rebuild the Lingzhou War University, and the school will be strong again, and it will be retaliated against again, what will you do?"

"It's because ...... Our school has the imprint of Mo Lingyu's God of War...... They attacked you?"

Shen Zhenping raised his head and asked with difficulty.

The old man bowed slightly, and tears appeared in his eyes.

"There are some things I don't want to tell you, but if I don't say it, I'm afraid you won't be angry......

Alas......

Mo Lechuan ...... After he was killed in battle, his head was removed...... but the body was not destroyed......

Isn't that a warning obvious?

If Lingzhou Zhanda continues to exist, it will still be a target, because it is tied to Mo Lingyu's God of War lineage, and we can't send a few God of War to guard the school all the time. ”

When Shen Zhenping heard this, he couldn't help but recall the old man's voice and smile in the past, and his heart became more and more sad.

He wanted to rebuild the school.

But...... It's really hard.

As the teacher said.

The use of nuclear weapons was the trigger for this retaliation incident, and the reason why Lingzhou War University was selected as the target of retaliation was not only because of the title of the first school, but also because the school had the imprint of Mo Lingyu's god of war.

He rebuilds the school, and next time he might be the target of the monster's revenge.

At that time, it will only hurt some teachers and students who come to school.

It's not just that it can't be rebuilt......

Even the name of Lingzhou Zhan University, even with the first battle for famous schools, should be completely buried.

Otherwise, how can it be explained to the world?

Could it be that we humans have just chosen a number one school and have been destroyed by monsters in less than a few hours?

What a blow to the confidence of all the Red Mist Warriors?

What's more......

Once the truth is revealed, what will the world think if this No. 1 school is not rebuilt?

Everyone will feel that the ruling class has succumbed and succumbed to the revenge of the monsters.

When the time comes, it will inevitably lead to the boiling of public resentment.

The school can be rebuilt, and even strongly supported to attract more excellent teachers and gifted students.

What can you do but fight for a breath?

There is also a risk of retaliation in the future.

Shen Zhenping was extremely aggrieved, but he was helpless.

Humanity is weak, and it can only be so.

The old man patted him on the shoulder and said softly, "Take good care of Mo Chuxin's little girl......

The Mo family has done enough for us in Huaxia, and she doesn't need to pay anymore.

She will do whatever she likes in the future, whether it is singing and dancing, or painting, as long as she lives, it is better than anything else.

As for...... The revenge of your school will one day be avenged along with the revenge of our entire human race.

Now, all we have to do is endure the humiliation, stop the war, and cultivate more strong people to support that plan. ”

Shen Zhenping nodded with difficulty.

The old man helped him up.

"Zhenping, you are one of my most proud students, I hope you can come out early, you are still needed elsewhere. ”

......

A moment later, Shen Zhenping left the temporary command post lonely.

The old man followed him out and walked into the mountains.

Looking at the endless wilderness in the distance, his gaze became incomparably deeper.

He had just received instructions from above.

He will be transferred to the Ministry of Education, focusing on the education of Red Mist warriors.

In this incident, the Lingzhou War was destroyed, and the super-class monsters were infested, which made the upper echelons completely determined.

From then on, the war stopped, and the city was no longer expanded.

After that, the general direction was changed to increase the population, cultivate the strong, and accumulate strength.

This also means that the era of great development that lasted for 40 years......

That's the end of it.
