"Miss Xuan Yuan, you don't have to say anymore!
I'm going now! "
One of the Ancient Sword Wielders, who had been complaining about not wanting to fight, raised his Swordmistress in shame. He then walked down the wall of the core area without hesitation and headed for the outermost wall.
The sword-bearer recalled his childhood. He was not a child of a sword-bearer family. His ancestors had never produced a sword-bearer for more than a dozen generations, so he had always lived in an extremely crowded beehive with his parents. Because his income was extremely low, he often ate the nutrient solution provided free of charge by Yuzhang City when he was a child. That tasted like wax, and he had been eating it for ten years.
But what puzzled him was that even though his family was so poor, his parents still saved up a lot of money. They used the money to buy some delicious food that he couldn't eat and stood guard at the gate of Yuzhang City. When they encountered sword-bearers who had returned from fighting outside the city, they would immediately rush up and deliver the food to the sword-bearers.
When he was a child, he did not understand why they would give the money and food they had painstakingly saved up to sword wielder who had nothing to do with them. Then his mother told him that it was because the sword wielder was fighting outside that ordinary people like them could live safely in the city and enjoy the free nutrient solution.
People had to learn to be grateful. They had to be grateful to the sword wielder who risked their lives to fight for the safety of everyone. They had to let these sword wielder feel the gratitude that came from being protected by them.
From then on, his greatest wish in life was to become a powerful sword-wielder and protect these lovely citizens.
Later on, he really became a sword bearer, but his original intention had changed, the source of his dream of becoming a sword bearer seemed to have dissipated completely, until today when he heard Gu Xuanyuan's words, he remembered the scene of his mother handing over the food that she had saved up to those sword bearers when he was young.
"How can I let down these people who need my protection?"
Thinking of this, this sword wielder could no longer bear the condemnation of his conscience. At the same time, his childhood dream burst forth, and he was the first to rush down the wall, choosing to fight for these people who needed his protection.
...
"I'm going too!"
A female sword wielder immediately followed behind the previous sword wielder. She also remembered her own past.
However, she was different from the previous sword-bearer. She was born into a sword-bearer family. Her father and grandfather were both sword-bearers.
However, her father and grandfather died in front of her at the same time. It was during the great invasion 15 years ago. In order to protect an underground shelter that Yuan Kou had found, her father and grandfather gave up the opportunity to escape and used their own bodies and swordmaidens to block the entrance of the underground shelter. In the end, they perished together with the attacking Yuan Kou.
She still remembered her father's last words to her before he died. "Don't cry. Fight for the people you need to protect. This is the fate of every sword-bearer."
She had always remembered this sentence, and it was this sentence that encouraged her to follow her grandfather and father's path and become a swordsman. In the end, she even advanced to the level of a famed swordsman.
However, in the past two to three years, she had followed her superior, the Sword Spirit Mu Xue. She could not help but have many different thoughts. She understood what power struggles were, understood what it meant to preserve strength, and understood what it meant to be alive.
She gradually sank into this atmosphere and gradually forgot her own heart. It was only at this moment when she heard Gu Xuanyuan's words that her heart woke up from the haze and made a real choice.
The story of these two people was unique because it only happened to them.
However, such stories were also stories everywhere because the core had never changed. That was the mission of the sword-bearers. "Protect the people who need to be protected!"
Countless sword-bearers remembered their original intentions of becoming sword-bearers. They remembered the heroic words they had said when they were young. They finally woke up from their dreams and knew what they should do.
Therefore, a large number of sword-bearers followed the two people and walked towards the outermost city wall. The entire Yuzhang City was finally ignited by Gu Xuanyuan's declaration. They remembered their original intentions and chose to protect the people who needed to be protected.
"You saved this city!"
Sword Immortal Ling Xu could not describe his current feelings. He silently walked behind Gu Xuanyuan. It was as if Gu Xuanyuan was the true master of Yuzhang City, an Immortal Sword Tier sword-bearer, and he was merely a small soldier behind Gu Xuanyuan.
"I did not save them, they chose to save themselves!"
Gu Xuanyuan's gaze was fixed on the horizon. "They are the future of Yuzhang City. I cannot let too many of them die."
"It's useless …" Sword Immortal Ling Xu shook his head. "No matter how powerful you are, you are only one person. You cannot deal with hundreds of thousands of Yuan Kou.
Without the protection of the Dimensional Barrier, these cute little guys will all pay the price in blood. "
"Don't we still have her?"
Gu Xuanyuan hugged Kang Na, who was already dizzy from hunger, into her arms. She pouted Kang Na's cute little face. "Let's go!
Aren't you hungry? "
…
Anyone who had a husky before would definitely know what it felt like to be walked by a dog. The leash on the dog's leash was pulled tightly. As the owner, there was no way you could resist the strength of a sprinting husky. You could only be dragged around by the husky. Even if you accidentally fell to the ground, the husky would continue forward without a care. It was indeed a very strange feeling.
Now, Gu Xuanyuan was almost experiencing the same feeling. Kang Na, who had a pair of short and thick legs, ran quite quickly. The leash around her neck was already stretched to its limit. She dragged Gu Xuanyuan behind her as she ran with large strides. Her own speed was almost comparable to that of a speeding car.
Even Gu Xuan Yuan couldn't tell which way was north because of Kang Na. Finally, Kang Na stopped in front of a warehouse with a large skull logo on the outside.
"Miss Gu Xuanyuan?"
"Miss Gu Xuanyuan, why are you here?"
Guarding the warehouse door was actually a small team of special forces armed with live nuclear weapons. It was a very rare special forces in Yuzhang City that relied on firearms to fight.
Such special forces were mentioned in the previous chapter. The guns in their hands could cause harm to Yuan Kou and the sword wielder. However, with Yuan Kou's physique, if he was caught unprepared, he would not necessarily die even if he was hit by hundreds or thousands of bullets.
But no matter how strong the sword wielder was, if he did not activate his personal shield and was caught unprepared, as long as he was hit by a bullet, he could possibly lose his life here.
Rather than saying that such special forces were used to deal with Yuan Kou, it was more appropriate to say that they were used to deal with the sword wielder.
And this place with the skull logo actually needed a whole team of special forces to guard it. It could be seen that this place must be extremely heavily guarded against the sword wielder.
"You guys know me?"
Gu Xuanyuan found that after these special forces saw her, they showed an uncontrollable excitement and felt very strange.
"Miss Gu Xuanyuan, we just heard your speech.
What you've said is really great. You've spoken our hearts.
If every sword-bearer was as concerned about the safety of us ordinary people as you are, then even if we were to die in the hands of Yuankou, we wouldn't have any complaints! "
The captain of the special forces said excitedly. It turned out that this was another ordinary person who was influenced by Gu Xuanyuan's speech.
"What I said is only what every sword wielder should do, you don't have to be so excited."
Gu Xuanyuan said lightly, at the same time feeling Kang Na's desire for the things in the warehouse. Gu Xuanyuan knew that the food that Kang Na spent so much effort to obtain must be in this warehouse.
"Can I go in?" Gu Xuanyuan asked the special forces team.
"I'm afraid not …" The captain of the special forces team looked very awkward.
"Then what is in this warehouse?
You can tell me! "Gu Xuanyuan said again.
"That's not a problem."
The captain breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is actually the fuel warehouse of Yuzhang City's nuclear reactor. It stores thousands of tons of high-purity nuclear fuel rods."
"So it's nuclear fuel rods …" Hearing the captain's answer, Leng Qingqiu vaguely understood what Kang Na's food was.
Yuzhang City could not rely on thermal power or large river hydropower to generate electricity. Only the small but extremely efficient nuclear power could meet the electricity needs of Yuzhang City's 40 million people.
In the core area of Yuzhang City, there was a super nuclear reactor. This super nuclear reactor consumed a lot of high-purity nuclear fuel rods to generate electricity every month to meet the electricity needs of Yuzhang City. Naturally, the core area also had a warehouse dedicated to storing high-purity nuclear fuel rods.
Even after 1000 years of highly advanced technology, nuclear fuel was still an extremely unstable substance. Once it was leaked, it could cause immeasurable harm to the citizens of Yuzhang City.
That was why a large number of people were needed to guard this warehouse. At the same time, sword bearers were strictly prohibited from entering the warehouse.
As for our Kang Na, as a lightning dragon, the lightning in her body could not have appeared out of thin air. From Kang Na's urgent need for nuclear fuel, it could be seen that the lightning in Kang Na's body actually came from a nuclear reaction. Kang Na herself was a super nuclear reactor, so she could have an endless supply of electricity and become a powerful lightning dragon.
The truth was already in front of Gu Xuanyuan. If she did not let Kang Na eat these nuclear fuel rods, she would not be satisfied to work for Guhan.
"How about this, send a message to Sword Immortal Ling Xu and tell him that I want to go in. Don't worry," Gu Xuanyuan said to the captain.
"Miss Gu Xuanyuan, it's really dangerous inside. Even if you are a sword bearer, you will inevitably be harmed by the radiation.
If we want to go in, we have to go through three or four hours of radiation protection before we can enter. Why don't you follow us to go through the radiation protection before going in? "
"Do you think I have three or four hours for you?"
Gu Xuanyuan patted the captain's shoulder. "Send a message to Sword Immortal Ling Xu. He will understand."
With no other choice, the team leader could only call Sword Immortal Ling Xu. After some communication between Sword Immortal Ling Xu and Gu Xuanyuan, Sword Immortal Ling Xu finally agreed to Gu Xuanyuan's request. He ordered the team leader to let Gu Xuanyuan and Kang Na into the nuclear fuel warehouse without any radiation protection.
