64: Chapter 64 Wei Heng's Great-Grandma!

'What kind of hero am I?'

Just as Fang Xun fell into deep thought, wondering when he could solve the current problem, Wei Heng, who was still on the battlefield on the other side, was so happy his eyes were almost invisible.

At this moment, the Seal laid down by Lu Li had surrounded all those Remnant Beastss.

Bullets fresh off the production line were being continuously transported to the front lines through that green light.

They were sent to the soldiers without even having their packaging removed.

"Awesome."

Wei Heng let out a long breath.

With these few mountains, he was confident he could turn Dongcheng City into the most impregnable fortress on this blue planet.

Bar none.

There would never be another place with stronger firepower support than Dongcheng City.

Even if there were, those weapons, while damaging the Disaster Beast, probably wouldn't allow humans to survive at the same time.

But now, Wei Heng could finally realize what he had thought of before.

To crush any invading Disaster Beast or Remnant Beastss directly with a torrent of steel!

The moment that Taotie fell, the ringing of his communicator never stopped.

It wasn't just him; every person in the Special Affairs Bureau received varying degrees of information bombardment.

Even the cleaning aunties on the street outside the Special Affairs Bureau were being asked by unknown callers when the Director of the Dongcheng City Special Affairs Bureau Branch, Wei Heng, would return to the bureau.

If the previous incidents had only slightly brought Dongcheng City into the world's view,

then this time, the news that a city possessed the ability to single-handedly eliminate an A-rank Disaster Beast immediately pushed Dongcheng City into the spotlight.

The status of 'Great Sage' instantly soared to a peak that almost no one could reach.

Outside of Great Xia, some small nations had already offered stakes like 'Supreme Sovereign'.

As long as 'Great Sage' went there, he would be a figure surpassing their king.

Gradually, the sound of gunfire subsided, and the time had reached deep into the night.

Up to this point, Wei Heng still hadn't looked at the messages on his communicator.

Compared to those standing on the battlefield right now, any message in the communicator, no matter how important, seemed utterly trivial.

Finally, Lu Li returned, looking exhausted.

What greeted her were RVs prepared long ago, and tents set up to be as comfortable as possible.

As for driving half an hour back home to wash up and rest? What a joke; these soldiers wished they could sleep right in their trenches.

"I'm going to sleep."

Lu Li spotted the RV at a glance. She didn't even bother saying a few more words to Wei Heng before she floated into the RV.

She collapsed and slept.

Wei Heng only felt helplessness and heartache about this.

Lu Li was probably the most tired one.

Even though she didn't engage in direct output, only she could control the movements of such a large area of Remnant Beastss.

She couldn't relax even for a moment.

The fact that Lu Li could still remember to come back and sleep, rather than sleeping in the blood and gore, was her last bit of persistence.

"Dispatch those reserve recruits. Give our soldiers a break."

Only then did Wei Heng pick up his communicator, but instead of checking the messages inside, he issued orders.

"Director, is that really okay? They are still students."

"Give them a gun, and they are soldiers.

College students don't even know how to pull a trigger?

Is there any weapon easier to handle than a gun?

No forcing them. Just tally up how many are willing to come. I refuse to believe Dongcheng has no capable people!"

"Yes."

Unexpectedly, this tally was exceptionally easy.

Dongcheng University had over twenty thousand people in total. The thousand slots Wei Heng needed were filled within minutes.

Next, these thousand people were sent directly to the battlefield to replace the exhausted soldiers.

Outside the mountain that 'Great Sage' had forcefully moved, rows upon rows of tents housed rows upon rows of people sleeping soundly.

This time, they slept with exceptional peace of mind.

In their hearts, there was truly that beautiful future.

The last ones to return were those Psionic Armor Adepts.

Except for Yu Zheng, who had been out shopping, the rest were back, driving their mechs for final vigilance.

"Direc..."

Zhou Feipeng, dressed in black, ran the fastest.

He was stopped by Wei Heng raising his hand as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Enough idle talk. Go to sleep, all of you."

"Yes!"

The group responded and immediately dove into the RVs.

The Psionic Armor Adepts did the most work, so naturally, they received the best treatment.

Especially when students like Pei Ruanruan and Jiang Qin arrived, Wei Heng even bowed slightly to thank them.

This made Jiang Qin feel somewhat overwhelmed by the unexpected favor.

Wu Ming was the last one to arrive.

"Don't mind me."

Wu Ming took a deep breath, his gaze fixed behind Wei Heng.

Standing behind Wei Heng, apart from the logistics personnel who had been managing the battlefield situation, were only the seven students he had brought.

Even the Young Miss of the Pei family, Pei Ruanruan, had gone to the front line, yet these few people were merely hiding here.

Wu Ming unconsciously licked his slightly bleeding upper lip, his expression shifting, unsure what expression to wear.

"Heh..."

Finally, he just let out a soft chuckle.

Just then, Wei Heng suddenly called out to him.

"Come back."

Wei Heng didn't look at him, just said that.

Wu Ming fell silent, lowering the foot he had just raised.

"Return to Dongcheng. You are still a child of Dongcheng."

"I've already grown up."

Wu Ming laughed. After so many years, he wasn't a child anymore.

"So, I'm just asking you," Wei Heng continued. "The world has changed, and Dongcheng is different now."

Wu Ming looked at Wei Heng. "Are you referring to the entire city pinning its hopes on that 'Great Sage' who remains elusive even now?"

"Why not?" Wei Heng countered.

Throughout thousands of years, how much glory and decline were caused by just one person, one word?

"Wu Ming, don't you find it strange?

Why would a small place like Dongcheng have such a complete university?

Many cities don't even have a small academy; what virtue or ability does Dongcheng possess?

Now I'll tell you, Dongcheng University was founded because of one person.

Back then, there was no transcendence in this world.

Now that transcendence has appeared, my Dongcheng prospers because of this one person. What is wrong with that?"

"What if he leaves?" The 'he' Wu Ming referred to was naturally 'Great Sage'.

"I've actually been thinking about one thing," Wei Heng looked at the mountain peak that had shot up from the ground.

"Jiang Qin's relationship with him.

Why is Jiang Qin so special, receiving such great care from him?

It seems that as long as Jiang Qin is present, he is present.

Dongcheng is Jiang Qin's home.

I have no certainty of keeping 'Great Sage,' but I am certain I can make a little girl happy."

"Sounds like coaxing your daughter," Wu Ming raised an eyebrow.

Wei Heng shook his head, then said confidently:

"No, it's like coaxing my ancestor."
