Barrier of Light

"Gu Shen!"

"Brother Gu!"

"Gu Xiaoyou!"

Voices of greeting poured into Gu Shen's heart.

More than twenty Beizhou generals deliberately "blocked" this necessary route to Central City in order to see Gu Shen.

Among them are comrades who experienced the Storm War together in the "Gubao Fortress".

There are also comrades who have been through life and death in the Dolu River disaster.

Gu Shen saw a lot of familiar faces. He remembered that some people were not very outstanding in the killing mission in the Dolu River disaster area, but now they have become the strongest men stationed in Beizhou... He did not Thinking of these people coming, six years have passed and many people have forgotten about him.

But these people have not forgotten.

"They asked me not to tell you, they wanted to give you a surprise."

Mu Wanqiu parked the mini-boat in the air.

Gu Shen stepped on the iron sword of [Truth] and left the cabin, looking at his former colleagues who were waiting for him.

Parting in life and death.

Now we meet again.

Sometimes, without too many words, "comrades" who have experienced life and death together can understand each other's meaning with just a look.

The members of the Second Team of the Survey Corps who went north with him are also here.

Li Chen, who used the [Episode of the Origin] to link the whole team and open up his extraordinary vision, Mo Hongyi, who liked to bet with others but always lost, Su He, the taciturn but silently took the lead, and Zhang Ning, a fellow from Dongzhou who also has his ancestral home. …

These people are all here.

Yuan Yuan, deputy captain of the second team, was also there.

"Brother Gu, we happened to be passing by."

Yuan Yuan grinned and said, "I heard from Xiaoqiu that you were coming to Central City, so we came here. It's been six years since we've been together, and we'll be fine again."

"You're welcome and safe."

Gu Shen was very touched. It was the greatest good news to see that these people were still well.

Stationed at the border of Beizhou, he often had to deal with "black spots".

After the Dolu River Disaster broke out, the border fortresses still needed to beware of extraordinary beings from the [Old World], such as the Travelers, a wandering extraordinary group...

As for the survey corps, it is the most dangerous corps in recent years.

They have to go out often and explore the [Old World].

"In recent years, thanks to the complete map provided by Golden Spike, the scope of activities of the Survey Corps has been greatly expanded."

Mu Wanqiu said in a message: "I chose to make the map information public and share it with the entire Survey Corps... The mortality rate of the Survey Corps has been greatly reduced, and the mission completion rate and regiment enrollment rate have been greatly improved."

Golden Spike Flower "single-handedly" explored the dark area at the northern edge of the Five Continents World.

With this map.

If the Survey Corps goes north again, it won't be a "dark operation."

"Of course, it's in my name."

Mu Wanqiu whispered: "Yuan Yuan and the others still don't know that the main messenger behind this matter is actually you."

"It's fine. There's no need to let them know."

Gu Shen smiled and said: "There is no need to tell the truth. It doesn't matter who is in charge... As long as this map can help the Survey Corps, it is enough."

Mu Wanqiu's identity is much more suitable than her own.

The captain of a team who performs solo missions all year round releases a map of a relatively safe area. No one will doubt its authenticity.

Lu Zhe and the legion commander were the guarantees.

Not to mention that no one will delve into the secrets behind this map.

…

…

"Li Chen, have you... grown taller?"

"Su He, congratulations on your understanding of the Dacheng Realm!"

Gu Shen summoned people one by one. He was very moved when he saw these old friends making a special trip to greet him.

Haven’t seen each other for six years.

These people change a lot.

Li Chen, who was a fledgling newcomer back then, has now grown into a senior team member who can take charge of his own role, and is even assigned to serve as the captain of the new team of the Survey Corps.

Everyone has changed a lot.

"Gu Shen, everyone has been thinking of you all these years!"

Mo Hongyi smiled and said, "Not long ago, Zhang Ning burned paper for you!"

"Fuck you uncle..."

Zhang Ning, who was still laughing silly at first, couldn't laugh anymore. Her head was full of black lines and she greeted Mo Hongyi.

"This is real."

Yuan Yuan, who is still the vice-captain of the second team, smiled helplessly and said: "Actually, every year our team will... pay homage."

When the Sangzhou Cave incident came out, it caused a sensation in the five continents.

Gu Shen's death was a big blow to this team.

"I'm actually quite pleased to hear you say that."

Gu Shen was not angry, he said softly: "I am sincerely honored to be remembered in your hearts."

"Are you here to see Her Majesty the Queen?"

Yuan Yuan shook his head, greeted all the team members, and said sincerely: "We are here to greet you. We just want to say hello. It is enough to see you with our own eyes. We will not delay your business."

"When I finish my business in Central City, if you are still here, I will treat you."

Gu Shen said solemnly: "Just like what we did at Gubao Fortress and Xuankongshan Courtyard, I'll treat you to a drink that will keep you drunk."

Gu Shen knows very well that some things are hard-won and need to be protected.

But the vast majority of people in the world will not cherish it.

Often once you have it, you will put it aside and no longer pay attention to it.

And you won't regret it until you lose it.

When he returned to Wuzhou this time, he was greeted by people. These people appeared in Nagano and Central City. In addition to being moved... Gu Shen also felt a weight that he had never felt before. That weight is called responsibility.

These people put him at the forefront of their hearts.

He should also protect these people well.

…

…

Mu Wanqiu drove a mini-boat and landed in the Queen's Manor. Because of the advance notification, Lin's imperial guards did not stop him.

The sound of water gushing from the stone fountain is clear and crisp.

Under the vault, colorful lights fell, and at the end of the corridor sat a figure drinking tea leisurely.

"Lord Legion Commander."

Mu Wanqiu saluted, then straightened his back respectfully.

The woman drinking tea raised her head, her eyes full of warmth, and nodded to indicate Mu Wanqiu to take a seat.

"Aunt Wen."

Gu Shen called him a relatively affectionate name. He was not within the Beizhou system, and after dealing with Ziyu several times... he found that the legendary legion commander was not as cold and harsh as rumored. , at least his attitude towards himself is extremely gentle.

"Xiao Gu, you're here, sit down."

When Aunt Wen shouted, Ziyu's face really burst into laughter.

Being able to take charge of an entire legion, such a person needs to be "iron-blooded" and "rational" most of the time.

Mu Wanqiu rarely saw such a smile on the legion commander's face.

Last time……

It should be time to unify the realms, successfully break through the realm, and win the title of [Judge].

"Long time no see, I brought some small gifts."

Gu Shen took out part of the black silver from the [Pure Land]. After showing Mr. Bai Shu the 2,700 kilograms of black silver brought back by the initial number, he kept part of it himself.

Some of them are specially reserved for giving gifts.

A circular secret cabin box was summoned by Gu Shen and placed on the table.

"oh?"

Ziyu smiled, reached out to pick it up, and subconsciously sighed: "It's quite heavy...is it mithril?"

The next moment, her mental power rushed into the cabin box, and her whole expression changed slightly.

The weight of this special cabin box is about one hundred kilograms.

One hundred kilograms...all made of black silver!

The smile on the legion commander's face turned into astonishment, and she looked at Gu Shen.

One hundred pounds of black silver.

Is this something that can be taken out casually?

Is this called a small gift?

"This is too expensive, I can't have it."

The legion commander put down the capsule and pushed it in front of Gu Shen.

Her first reaction was to say no.

Gu Shen smiled and said: "Just accept it and upgrade the equipment for the brothers of the Survey Corps. Although there is no way to mass-produce 'black silver cannonballs', at least applying them to extraordinary weapons can greatly increase combat effectiveness. "

The black and silver cannonball exited.

Ziyu's expression changed slightly again, and she recalled Osmond's report on the battle situation at [Ice Sea Ruins].

[Ice Sea Ruins] There really is an ancient civilization, and it has created heaven-defying "black silver cannonballs" that are extremely lethal.

The battle situation at that time was very anxious. The combined fleets of Nagano and Central City were about to be shot down, but the second salvo of artillery shells completely avoided the two continents' fleets, and only aimed at Guangming City and the Tower of Source to launch a fierce attack!

Of course this can't be a coincidence!

The interior of [Ice Sea Ruins] must be controlled by someone... Through Wei Cheng's description, a figure wearing an evil ghost mask was locked.

At this moment, the image of the legendary "evil ghost" and Gu Shen in front of him gradually became one.

Surprise and shock appeared in the legion commander's eyes.

"Black and Silver Cannonball... So the person at [Ice Sea Ruins] is you?"

"If I say yes, will you accept this gift?"

Gu Shen did not answer directly, but smiled and said: "To me, these black silver are nothing... Legion Commander, I come to the manor this time for one more thing. I want to see your Majesty."

This time, Ziyu did not continue to shirk.

She accepted the one hundred kilograms of black silver. For the Survey Corps, these one hundred kilograms of black silver were a very precious resource. If used properly, the combat effectiveness of the entire legion would be improved to a higher level!

After accepting the black silver, she smiled and asked jokingly: "Are you giving these black silver to smoothen the relationship?"

"I'd love to deny it, but it does mean a little bit."

Gu Shen blinked and quickly complimented: "After six years, you have become stronger again. Although I defeated Jia Wei in the Red Lake, compared to you... I still seem to be far behind."

"Okay, okay, stop flattering me and stop it now."

When the commander of the Purple Rain Army heard this, he felt dizzy and waved his hands quickly, saying: "If you just want to see His Majesty, it doesn't matter whether you give me a gift or not, because His Majesty also wants to see you."

"Your Majesty has been waiting on the second floor of the attic for a long time..."

She stood up and walked to the attic.

"Come with me."
