"Mr. Luo, why isn't your class moving yet?
The other classes have already set off. "
At the entrance of Yuzhang University, Guhan and the other students of Class 22694 lined up in a rather neat line. They were silently waiting for their homeroom teacher, Luo Fan, to announce the time to set off.
That day was the first day that Class 22694 would go out of the city for actual combat training. Early in the morning, all the students gathered at the entrance of the school.
They were only waiting for their homeroom teacher, Luo Fan, to leave the base city for the first time in their lives. They would head to the perilous outskirts of the base city and engage in a real battle with those Yuan Kou's. They could lose their lives at any time.
However, it was already past the time to set off, but the line still remained at the entrance of the school. This was a very rare thing. In the history of Yuzhang University, such a thing rarely happened.
That was why a supervisor specifically came to question Luo Fan. Why wasn't he moving?
"Supervisor, there are still students in our class who haven't arrived yet. We can't set off!" Luo Fan spread his hands, indicating that he had no solution.
"Hmph, Mr. Luo, you're not a newbie. When has our Yuzhang University ever had a tradition of waiting for students who are late?
Set off now. As for the student who is late, I'll wait for him here. I'll let him know what Yuzhang University's rules are, "the supervisor said angrily.
Half of this anger was directed at the student who was late and the other half at Luo Fan.
Luo Fan was a qualified teacher. How could he make such a serious mistake?
Since when did Yuzhang University need to care about a student's actions?
"I'm sorry, Mr. Supervisor. I can't afford to offend this student.
If she doesn't arrive, I'm afraid our Class 22694 won't be able to move a single step. "
Luo Fan glanced at the supervisor. "Mr. Supervisor, I won't harm you. Contact the principal yourself and you'll know why I don't dare to move. I really have to wait until she arrives. Even if she comes in the afternoon, I want to wait until the afternoon."
"This is the principal's idea?"
After hearing Luo Fan's words, the supervisor was shocked. There was actually the principal's intention in this. This student could actually make the principal give such instructions that went against the school rules. How deep was the water in this matter?
At this time, two graceful figures gradually walked over from not far away. Luo Fan let out a long sigh of relief. This little devil had finally arrived.
He patted the supervisor on the shoulder and said, "Supervisor, my student has arrived. Class 22694 will set off now."
Hearing Luo Fan's words, the supervisor looked over. It turned out that the student who caught the principal's attention was a girl.
The supervisor sized her up carefully. This girl's looks were average. She didn't seem to have any special temperament. She was just like a loser.
However, the Sword Lady behind the girl was a stunning beauty. Her white dress fluttered in the wind, and she looked like a girl who walked out of an ink painting passed down from ancient times … Wait, why did this Sword Lady look so familiar?
He felt like he had seen her somewhere before.
The supervisor hurriedly opened his personal terminal and flipped through all the information of the ancient sword grade Sword Ladies. He flipped through the pictures of the top 200 Sword Ladies, but he didn't find a picture of this Sword Lady.
The supervisor thought about it and decided to give it a try. He flipped through the pictures of the treasured sword grade Sword Lady. In the end, when he flipped to the third picture, he saw this Sword Lady in white. Beside her was the information of the Sword Lady: [Treasured sword grade Sword Lady Tianwen Sword, third place in the Treasured Sword Record.]
"It's actually the Sword Lady Tianwen Sword, third place in the treasured sword grade!
I heard from my friends in the Sword Pavilion that one of the treasured sword grade treasures, the Natural Sword Lady Tianwen Sword, had been coordinated away by someone. Could it be that it was taken away by this student? "
The supervisor mumbled to himself. Suddenly, the supervisor's expression changed drastically. "I remember that Class 22694 was established two weeks ago, and the earliest sword bearers in it were only three weeks ago. Could it be that this female student only used three weeks to become a sword bearer?! Could it be that this female student only used three weeks to become a sword bearer?!
That's too exaggerated. I spent three whole years to complete this progress! "
After being stunned for a long time, the supervisor finally accepted this fact. He then shook his head in a self-deprecating manner and left the school gate.
Becoming a treasured sword grade sword bearer in three weeks and synchronizing the Natural Sword Lady, who ranked third in the treasured sword grade, naturally made the principal and Luo Fan treat her like a treasure. So what if she was late? Even if she beat him up, the principal would probably pinch his nose and accept it.
This was the world of sword bearers. Although it seemed to be full of order, it was still a world where strength spoke the loudest.
But then again, there was not a single world in the universe where strength spoke the loudest.
…
"Teacher, aren't we going out of the city?
Why are we going to the core area instead? "
After following the class for a long time, a student raised a question. They did not seem to be on the path out of the city.
"We have to go to the service center for sword bearers first to handle some necessary procedures for you brats. At the same time, I'll tell you the rules of life for sword bearers."
Luo Fan said with a laugh as he walked to the sword bearers mission center of the service center.
"Brats, welcome to the sword bearers mission center. But that's the official name. We sword bearers like to call this place the Mercenary Hall!!!"
Luo Fan laughed heartily as he pushed open the so-called Mercenary Hall. This hall had a western fantasy feel to it. In an instant, a loud noise rushed into the ears of Guhan and the others.
The hall was densely packed with people. A rough estimate estimated that there were at least five to six hundred people in this hall.
According to the rules, those who were not sword-bearers were not qualified to enter the sword-bearers' mission center, but these five to six hundred people were all sword-bearers … This was the first time Gu Han had seen so many real sword-bearers in real life. This was probably the hall with the most sword-bearers in Yuzhang City.
On both sides of the hall, there were countless display screens. Missions kept appearing and disappearing on the screens.
At the bottom of the screens, dozens of windows opened at the same time. Each window had two to three staff members in charge of receiving the sword bearers. Each window seemed to be extremely busy.
"Yo, Old Luo, you brought a bunch of newbies with you. You have a lot of work ahead of you!" A few sword bearers who were familiar with Luo Fan came up to greet Luo Fan.
"Damn, thanks to you, I'm about to die from being busy." Luo Fan punched the man's chest and started chatting with him in high spirits.
"Guhan, Teacher Luo looks very familiar here!"
Song Hama whispered into Guhan's ear as she saw people coming out of the mission hall to greet Luo Fan.
"That's normal. As Yuzhang University's homeroom teacher, Teacher Luo comes to the mercenary hall at least three times a week. How could he not be familiar with these sword bearers?" Liunian Ling came up to Guhan and took the initiative to explain.
On the other side, Luo Fan was still chatting with his friends.
"Hey, Old Luo, isn't the class in your hands about to graduate? How about giving me a few people? You don't know this, but last week, we encountered a wild Ultraman and three people died. Now, we can't even assemble a sword formation. If you don't help me, my team will have to disband."
The person who was talking to Luo Fan was the leader of a team of sword bearers. From what he said, it seemed like he had encountered an Ultraman when he was adventuring outside the city … Generally speaking, Ultramans were Dragon-level or above. Yuan Kou being able to escape safely was already a very good achievement.
"Forget it, my class graduated last month. This group of people are all newbies who have just become sword bearers. If they join your team, they won't even know how they died …" Luo Fan rejected his friend's request and returned to the team. He then led the 30 people from class 22694 into the mission hall for sword bearers.
"Listen carefully to what I'm going to say next. If anything goes wrong, you'll be the one to suffer. It has nothing to do with me." Luo Fan paused for a moment.
"As sword bearers, I believe that you've all enjoyed treatment that surpasses ordinary people and enjoyed the status of a superior person in the past two weeks.
However, you didn't earn this status. It's given to you by the sword bearers badge that you're wearing.
It's given to you by the sword bearers' duty to protect the survival of mankind. If you can't fulfill your duty, then you'll be kicked out of the sword bearers' team without hesitation!
"Although you've received your personal terminal, it's complete. Some of its functions are still sealed. Later, I'll bring you to open the window and unlock all the functions of your personal terminal. Then, you'll truly become a sword bearer, or more accurately, a sword bearer mercenary. Your employer isn't me or anyone else, but the Sword Committee and the entire human race that hired you.
"After the official opening and unlocking, you'll automatically receive 100 Hero Coins. What are Hero Coins?
To put it bluntly, Hero Coins are also a type of money. However, they're different from RMB, which is used by ordinary people. Hero Coins are coins that can only be used by sword bearers.
"In fact, the various privileges that you've enjoyed in the past two weeks, such as the citizen quota, the residence in the Core Area, the personal maid, the RMB subsidy, and even the arrogance that you've shown in front of ordinary people, aren't free. They're all bought with Hero Coins!
"As an ancient sword bearer, the Sword Committee will charge you 50 Hero Coins every month for the privileges that you've enjoyed. You can think of it as a tax.
You should know that the Hero Coins you have now will only last you for two months. After two months, your Hero Coins will be used up. When that time comes, all the privileges that you've enjoyed will be taken away. You might even be chased out of the Core Area along with your parents and sent back to the overcrowded Honeycomb House.
"If you don't want to go back to the past, then you'd better buck up and summon your courage. There are more than enough missions in the Mercenary Hall for you. As long as you complete them, tens, hundreds, or even thousands of Hero Coins won't be a problem!
