207: The strokes of the human race are like mountains and seas that other races cannot cross.
Ke Huaimin’s mind was calm, and he said with a faint smile, “The academy spends a lot of money to cultivate you, but until now, they have never stirred the passion in your hearts. To put it bluntly, no one has ever brainwashed you.”
“Don’t you find it strange?”
Xiao Fan thought about it carefully and nodded, “It does seem a bit strange.”
“I thought most of them were from prestigious families, and there’s no way they could betray the Human Race anyway, so they could only be for the Human Race. So there’s no need to say anything, right?”
“No.” Ke Huaimin shook his head and said, “It’s because there’s no need.”
“No need to say it with words!”
“No matter how passionate a speech is, it can never be more impactful than a real-life scene!”
Hearing this, Xiao Fan’s eyebrows slightly raised.
Ke Huaimin chuckled, “So, the place where you will be going for training next is the First War Zone in the north.”
“So fast?” Xiao Fan’s pupils contracted.
Although the Federation seemed so peaceful, the skirmishes between the First War Zone and the alien races had never stopped.
The Geniuses of the Super God Class hadn’t grown up yet. Wouldn’t it be a joke if they died there directly?
Of course, Xiao Fan himself wasn't worried, he was just a little surprised.
Ke Huaimin said calmly, “Fast?”
“But time waits for no one.”
Suddenly, he changed the subject, a hint of reminiscence appearing in his eyes, and he chuckled, “Oh, by the way, you’d best be mentally prepared.”
“In the First War Zone, no one will shout your title of Yuan Emperor.”
“Let me guess, they’ll probably call you, ‘Hey, that guy named Xiao.’”
“Yes, it must be like that.”
Xiao Fan shook his head, “I don’t care.”
“Don’t you want to know why?”
“Hmm?” Xiao Fan frowned.
In an instant, the casual and relaxed demeanor on Ke Huaimin’s body dissipated, and his expression gradually became serious.
“Currently, there are a total of eight war zones between the Federation and the alien races, and the ranking of these eight war zones is based on time.”
“And the First War Zone is where the Human Race first raised the sword of resistance!”
“The war zone is very large, with all complete living facilities, so many people have settled there, passing down from generation to generation.”
“Currently, about 100 million people live in the First War Zone.”
“These 100 million people are either on their way to the battlefield or already in the midst of battle. Many people are unwilling to even retire; they detest the sight of their bodies losing function and being unable to wield their blades to kill enemies again. To them, it’s no different from death, so they almost all choose to die in that sea of corpses and blood before losing their combat ability.”
“Almost all of these 100 million people have alien blood on them and carry more or less merit.”
“Remember these two words: Merit!”
“Over there, no one cares how high your talent is. Even Ying Zheng might not be respected there!”
“They only look at your position, because that represents merit, representing how many alien races you’ve killed, and how many alien heads you’ve brought back in triumph!”
“They don’t look forward to the future, nor do they wait for any Genius to grow up and protect themselves. They only know that if there’s danger, they just pick up their knives and go to the front lines.”
“Year after year, day and night, generation after generation, they live for this, they die for this.”
“I’ve said a bit too much.”
After taking a deep breath, Ke Huaimin smiled, “On a side note.”
“Your father-in-law, Lin Wugui, rose to power in the First War Zone back then.”
“So whether it’s you, or Lin Lianshen and Lin Xianhuo, you will all be treated strictly.”
“Don’t disgrace your father-in-law. The two characters ‘Wugui’ are still carved on that Great Wall, representing the highest honor.”
“What is the highest honor?” Xiao Fan’s eyebrows were tightly knit.
“Having killed an Emperor-level alien race,” Ke Huaimin said lightly.
“Emperor-level!?” Xiao Fan’s expression changed slightly, saying, “Isn’t my father-in-law only a Martial God?”
Ke Huaimin nodded slightly, “It was the Miracle Squad who killed it together back then, but at that time, your father-in-law was not yet a Martial God, only a Martial Saint.”
“But only one name could be carved. The Miracle Squad thought at the time, should they carve ‘Longevity’? Or the team name ‘Miracle’? Neither seemed very pleasant. The two characters ‘Wugui’ were good, so they carved them.”
“It’s funny to say, but your father-in-law’s real name was actually Lin Danu.”
“Ah?” Xiao Fan’s eyes widened, feeling as if he had misheard.
“Danu?”
“Yes.” Ke Huaimin laughed, “Your father-in-law is a brute, illiterate, but later he got together with the First Fairy of the First War Zone at that time.”
“Jiang Junrong, who is your mother-in-law, felt that the name was really embarrassing, so she changed it to Lin Wugui.”
“Your father-in-law should also be going to the First War Zone.”
“These years, he has always felt very decadent, having not been on the battlefield for many years to take care of his children, fearing that he can no longer lift a knife.”
“Now that the children have grown up, he should return to the battlefield.”
Xiao Fan nodded slightly.
Ke Huaimin sighed, “Once you reach the First War Zone, you should understand why so many people are willing to die to protect the Human Race.”
“Oh, right.”
“The First War Zone is just its common name; it also has a very romantic name.”
“It’s called Shanhai Pass!”
“The strokes of the Human Race represent a mountain and a sea that alien races can never cross.”
“Sounds good, doesn’t it?”
Ke Huaimin’s smile was brilliant.
Xiao Fan’s expression was complex, and he nodded, “It sounds good.”
“Alright, let’s not talk about these things anymore. Let’s talk about something you’d like to hear.” Ke Huaimin chuckled and said, “Those wolf cubs in the military region have been looking forward to your arrival.”
“Because you are currently the only one in the Super God Class who has merit.”
“You killed Poison Collect, and you also killed Kuang Xing. They remember that.”
“And they also remember that in Tianlei City, Xi He actually chose to join forces with the alien races, so Xi He might have a difficult time there.”
Ke Huaimin suddenly chuckled, “Those old guys have been waiting for this day, oh no, I’m an old guy too.”
“Anyway, they also tried to reason with Xi He, but Xi He was too arrogant, doing as she pleased, refusing to listen to anything, looking down on humans, but promising to protect the Human Race.”
“Later, they just stopped caring. Once she entered the Super God Class and went to Shanhai Pass, Xi He would naturally experience the harsh realities of society.”
“Tsk tsk tsk, just thinking about it makes me look forward to it.”
“Go!”
Ke Huaimin suddenly looked up, his smile brilliant, and his eyes sparkling with spirit!
“Go forth and make your mark at Shanhai Pass!”
Xiao Fan was infected by Ke Huaimin’s subtle but fervent emotions. At this moment, this man, nearly three hundred years old, was clearly a chuunibyou teenager!
But Xiao Fan felt that this was very good… extremely good!
Go to Shanhai Pass and see why some people are willing to sacrifice themselves for protection!
Go and see that Great Wall, where legend says blood flowed for thousands of miles.
Xiao Fan slightly clenched his fists.
At this moment, the power within him, which he called the System, seemed to undergo some subtle changes.
