385: Kneel down

In the scene, a Xuan Practitioner finally launched the first blow of resistance. He was seen holding a war blade high, roaring as he charged toward the Sea Beast, severing its massive head with a single strike, blood staining a large stretch of the beach red!

"Charge! For Great Ming!!!"

"For Great Ming! For Great Ming!! For Great Ming!!!"

"For the Human Race! For the Human Race!! For the Human Race!!!"

More people followed suit, shouting as they charged forward to clash with the Sea Beasts. The Human Race has never been a cowardly race; on the contrary, humans have been the victors surviving countless battles since ancient times! And Great Ming has never feared any foreign aggression. Any race or nation that dares to invade Great Ming will pay a heavy price!

The audience members all stood up. Those who had previously collapsed on the ground stood up, and the people watching from the periphery stood up as well. They shouted loudly, "For Great Ming" and "For the Human Race." The waves of sound surged outward in circles, traveling very far, very far, very far... At this moment, the stirring singing also rang out:

They are all brave

The wound on your forehead, your difference, the mistakes you've made

None of it needs to be hidden

Your worn-out doll, your mask, your true self

They say, carry the light and tame every monster

They say, sew up your wounds

No one loves a clown, why can't loneliness be glorious?

Only imperfection is worth singing about

Who says those covered in mud aren't heroes?

I love how you walk through dark alleys alone

I love your refusal to kneel

I love how you've confronted despair

Refusing to shed a single tear

I love your tattered clothes

Yet you dare to block the gun of fate

I love how you are so like me

The gaps are all the same

Will you go? Are you worthy? This ragged cape

Will you fight? Then fight! With the humblest dream

To the whimpers and roars in the dark of night

Who says only those standing in the light are heroes?

They say, give up your madness

Just like wiping away dirt

They say, climb the stairs

But the price is bowing your head

Then let me not ride the wind

You are just as proud, with that lonely courage

Who says those who play against the mundane aren't heroes?

I love how you walk through dark alleys alone, I love your refusal to kneel

I love how you've confronted despair, refusing to shed a single tear

I love your tattered clothes, yet you dare to block the gun of fate

I love how you are so like me, the gaps are all the same

Will you go? Are you worthy? This ragged cape

Will you fight? Then fight! With the humblest dream

To the whimpers and roars in the dark of night

Who says only those standing in the light are heroes?

Your mottled flaws are unique, so unique

Your silence is deafening, so deafening

You Are The Hero

I love how you walk through dark alleys alone, I love your refusal to kneel

I love how you've confronted despair, refusing to shed a single tear

I love how you come from the wild, never borrowing anyone's light

You will build your city-state upon the ruins

Will you go? Then go! With the humblest dream

Will you fight? Then fight! With the loftiest dream

To the whimpers and roars in the dark of night

Who says only those standing in the light are heroes... The singing emanated from the stage, drifting through the night sky and spreading through South Yue City. This stirring song could be heard in every corner. Everyone who heard this song, filled with Battle Intent, felt a strange sensation rising in their hearts. At this moment, they all seemed to transform into warriors charging into battle; with a single command, they would launch the most violent charge against the enemy, even if there were mountain-like Strange Beasts ahead, even if there were countless sharp teeth and claws, even if they knew countless traps were waiting for them!

Everything for Great Ming!

For the citizens of Great Ming! Our compatriots! Our descendants!!!

Every person is a master of this land. No matter what enemy attacks, every person will pick up their weapons and fight to the end!

Crying! Crying!! Crying!!!

Laughing! Laughing!! Laughing!!!

Even if they turn into a wisp of light smoke, they will still look back down at the earth, gratified by everything they sacrificed for it!

At this moment, everyone seemed to merge into one person, one heart, one soul!

Backstage, Justin, the butler, and the others watched this scene dumbfounded. They were deeply shocked by the Battle Intent engraved in the bones of the people of Great Ming. At this moment, they suddenly felt what an irrational decision it would be for Snow Eagle Country to become an enemy of Great Ming!

The people of Great Ming aren't even afraid of the Sea Race, so why would they fear a mere Snow Eagle Country?!

Justin suddenly snapped out of it. He looked at the figure on the stage with an expression of disbelief. His legs went weak, and he knelt!!!

He couldn't help but kneel!

Such a level of Music Dao was worthy of his kneel!

Long Yuan alone manipulated everyone's emotions, alone mastered so many instruments to form a vast musical world, and alone represented a war history of the Human Race. With such terrifying expressive power in the Music Dao, Justin felt as if he saw the God he believed in right before his eyes... It wasn't just him who knelt; the butler, Li Gui, Xu Ruoying, and Ran Yiyi also knelt... "Was I wrong? Was I really wrong? Was the choice to join Shadow Moon Hall to oppose the Human Race wrong from the very root?" In the corner, the Evil Cultists like Zhang Jiahui, Luo Yaping, and Diantian had heavy expressions, their bodies trembling slightly... "This Music Dao is truly Heaven-Defying... Also, how did he know about the Human Race's past struggle against the Sea Race..." Zhu Jian looked at the stage in disbelief, lost in thought... Liu Rushi looked up at the tall, straight figure standing on the stage, a look of infatuation flashing across her face, as if he were gradually overlapping with the beloved figure she often fantasized about in her dreams... She murmured the lyrics, a resolute expression beginning to appear on her face as she whispered, "Will you fight? Then fight! Mere Sea Race, I'll make sure they never return!"

Countless people, like her, secretly made a firm resolution in their hearts to fight. The people of South Yue City were of one mind at this moment, filled with Battle Intent and unafraid of Strange Beasts, vowing to drive the invading Sea Race back into the sea... As if sensing the people's state of mind, a sudden "rumbling" of thunder exploded, and a torrential rain poured down. But in the heavy rain, the people held their heads high, their eyes becoming clearer and brighter... While the people were still immersed in that uplifted and excited atmosphere, Long Yuan had already quietly returned backstage. Seeing the scene on site, he felt that he might have played it a bit too big this time!

If the Sea Race saw this scene, would they treat South Yue City as the main battlefield of their invasion?

However, the coastline of the South Yue City base was the longest in all of Great Ming. If a Sea Race invasion really broke out, it would inevitably bear immense pressure. So it wasn't a question of whether it would happen, but when. Looking at it this way, giving the soldiers and civilians of South Yue City a shot of adrenaline at this time was also a very necessary thing.

Otherwise, once the Sea Race truly began their invasion, there was no telling how chaotic South Yue City would become. But now, the people here had realized they should prepare for war with the Sea Race, and under his inspiration, a spirit of bloody courage had been brewed. As long as they dared to fight and resist, the losses would actually be much smaller than if they fled without a fight!
