Gao Wu: One Man, One Sword, Guarding The Starry Sky For Ten Thousand Years.

"Report! The Thunder Dragon Riders, First Legion, has suffered 3,000 casualties!" "Report! The Thor's Hammer, Fourth Legion, has suffered 3,000 casualties!" "Report! A 200,000-strong allied army of six races, including the Netherfire Werewolf and the Flying Tiger, is launching a full-scale attack on the North Gate. Requesting reinforcements! Requesting reinforcements!" "Report! General Chi, alone against the enemy, fought bravely and killed three Netherfire Werewolf commanders, sacrificing himself heroically!" "Report..." The cacophony of voices filled the air. Chu Yun Sheng struggled to open his eyes, looking around blankly. Before him stood a massive steel base, countless whooshing sounds echoing overhead. Countless shells streaked past two towering cannons, bombarding the surrounding city. All sorts of strange, alien soldiers—wolf-headed men, giant winged tigers, and other alien races—swarmed towards the human base. The earth trembled, the sky wailed! Everywhere he looked, there were severed limbs, entrails, and filthy remains, staining every corner! Chu Yun Sheng stared at the scene in shock and bewilderment: "Didn't I go into the water to save a child... how did I end up here?" Chu Yun Sheng looked around blankly. He was surrounded by a massive steel base, with countless whooshing sounds overhead and constant shrieks. "I've transmigrated?" Chu Yun Sheng was stunned. Memories flooded back. This was a parallel world similar to Earth, but over a hundred years ago, numerous teleportation portals appeared in this world. On the other side of the portals was this dimensional planet of the Myriad Races Battlefield. This place had all sorts of rare treasures and things that could make one stronger. But it was also a gathering place for various star races from across the universe! They fought, slaughtered, and vied for power here! The base he was currently in was called the South Heavenly Gate City Base, one of the Dragon Kingdom's top-tier military bases stationed on the Myriad Races Battlefield. Originally named Chu Yunsheng, a university student serving as an aid soldier, he was currently serving in Nantianmen City. "Snap!" After inheriting the memories, a few salty tears fell from the corners of Chu Yunsheng's eyes! "Chu Yunsheng" stared blankly at the tears on his collar, his eyes reddening, his vision blurring, an overwhelming surge of sorrow, resentment, and despair welling up within him. Just yesterday, he had watched helplessly as his classmate was brutally murdered by the enemy's claws! His classmate coughed up blood, his stomach ripped open, and before dying, he detonated a grenade, taking the enemy with him. Three days ago, a comrade-in-arms he had been with also heroically sacrificed his life. In just one month, tens of thousands of his compatriots had died in Nantianmen City, their blood staining the entire base! "Thunderbolt Dragon Cavalry, 27th Regiment, 18th Battalion, all of you, come with me to reinforce the North Gate!" Just then, a loud shout exploded in Chu Yunsheng's ears! Chu Yun Sheng's heart skipped a beat. He was from the 18th Battalion of the 27th Thunder Dragon Cavalry Regiment! However… At this moment, the faces of the soldiers in the 18th Battalion were filled with apprehension, and some even turned deathly pale. The 18th Battalion wasn't a combat battalion, but a logistics battalion! Responsible for transporting supplies, ammunition, and wounded soldiers on the battlefield! The situation had actually reached this point, and even the logistics battalion had to go to the front lines?! Chu Yun Sheng looked at Battalion Commander Zheng, who was issuing the order. A square-faced man in his fifties with graying temples, his demeanor was solemn and dignified—a typical soldier of the Dragon Kingdom. Battalion Commander Zheng was well past retirement age, but he had always been stationed on the front lines. At this moment, Battalion Commander Zheng clearly sensed the unease and fear in the 18th Battalion. He shouted, "Men, bring the wine!" "Yes, sir!" Several large wine vats were brought out, and each soldier was given a bowl of strong liquor. Battalion Commander Zheng's bloodshot eyes swept over every member of the 18th Battalion: "I know you're afraid, I'm afraid too! 'If it benefits the country, I'll risk my life; how can I avoid danger for personal gain?!'" "Now the country needs us, the people need us. At this critical moment, are you going to retreat?" "Tell me, are you going to be cowards?!" Silence fell, then someone roared, "No! We are the invincible Thunder God Army, we are steel soldiers, we are not cowards!" Chu Yun Sheng subconsciously shouted a few words along, but even he was stunned after the words left his mouth. The roars rose and fell around Chu Yun Sheng. One person responded, two people responded, ten people responded, a hundred people responded, the entire battalion responded, everyone's faces flushed red! Battalion Commander Zheng's eyes grew even redder. He raised his wine bowl high: "Brothers, may we achieve a resounding victory and instant success!" "Raise your glasses! Drink this cup, and we'll meet again at the Martyrs' Cemetery!" All the soldiers of the 18th Battalion roared in unison: "Damn it! Drink this cup, and we'll meet again at the Martyrs' Cemetery!" "Kill these bastards!" "Cheers! Cheers!" In this fervent atmosphere, Chu Yun Sheng's emotions surged, his heart pounding like a drum! Chu Yun Sheng inherited all the original owner's memories and strength, so he naturally felt a deep connection to this base and his comrades. However, Chu Yun Sheng still carried the memories from before his transmigration, so a pang of sorrow welled up within him. Heaven had just given him a second life, and now he was going to be sent away again? This was truly unbearable… Just as the troops were about to depart, Battalion Commander Zheng suddenly found Chu Yun Sheng and quietly pulled him aside. "Chu Yunsheng!" "Present!" "Take this pass. Go directly to the south portal to return to Earth, the Dragon Kingdom." "Huh?" This sudden sentence stunned Chu Yunsheng, leaving him momentarily speechless. "This is an order from the military!" Battalion Commander Zheng announced in a low voice. "Why...why?" Chu Yunsheng asked, completely bewildered. The previously solemn and dignified Battalion Commander Zheng smiled kindly, like an old man. He straightened Chu Yunsheng's military uniform collar, smoothing out the wrinkles, and said with the magnanimity of an elder caring for a junior: "Of this year's batch of aid soldiers from the University of Supernatural Abilities, your performance is the best." "Hardworking, brave, and fearless, I admire you very much." Zheng Zhigang glanced around and whispered, "The latest report from headquarters says that besides today's Golden Beetle Clan, two more alien armies are on their way. This is an allied army of eight clans!" "The battle will then..." "It's incredibly brutal! You top university students have unlimited futures; there's no need to waste your time here. The other students have already retreated; you should go too!" "Eight...Eight-clan coalition!" Chu Yunsheng was completely stunned, his face as white as paper. He cried out urgently, "Reinforcements! Battalion Commander Zheng, call for reinforcements quickly!" "Besides our Nantianmen City, the other 30,000 clan battlefields of our Dragon Kingdom are also under siege. Currently, the central forces are overwhelming; all the available troops and experts have been deployed," Zheng Zhigang said in a deep voice. "This..." A chill ran down Chu Yunsheng's spine. He stood frozen in place, as if he saw a giant black hand slowly enveloping the Dragon Kingdom! "The situation is volatile and unpredictable; no one can see clearly. You university students are the future pillars of the nation. Don't waste this time. Hurry up and go; the situation is tense, and the teleportation portal will only be open for a short while." "Commander Zheng...then...what about you?" Chu Yunsheng's eyes reddened. He had been training in Nantianmen City for a year and had a deep affection for the people and the city. Especially this Commander Zheng, whom he had been cared for over the past year—almost like a comrade-in-arms, almost like a grandfather. Now, the situation had suddenly deteriorated, and the military was ordering him to retreat, while Commander Zheng and the others were to remain and continue fighting. This made Chu Yunsheng feel a tremendous sense of shame, as if he were a deserter! "We have other arrangements," Zheng Zhigang said. "What arrangements?" "An opportunity." "I...I..." "Don't give me that nonsense, you grown man!" Before Chu Yunsheng could even hesitate, Zheng Zhigang decisively interrupted him. "Enough with the nagging and rambling! Orders are orders! I command you to retreat now, now!" Battalion Commander Zheng shoved the pass into Chu Yunsheng's hand, then kicked him in the backside. Chu Yunsheng staggered a few steps to his feet, turning back to see Battalion Commander Zheng rapidly returning to the rear, shouting orders to continue supplying ammunition. Chu Yunsheng stared blankly at the pass in his hand, his heart filled with pain, resentment, frustration, and anger at his own incompetence! It was all his fault for lacking strength, for being merely a first-tier ability user! If he had strength, he could stay here and fight alongside his comrades! Chu Yunsheng, his hands trembling, slowly walked towards the south gate. "Boom!!!" Just as Chu Yunsheng had walked a short distance, a deafening explosion suddenly erupted behind him! Before Chu Yunsheng could react, an indescribable, immense force exploded from behind him! Chu Yun Sheng, like a lone boat, was blasted dozens of meters away by the terrifying force, his ears filled with a deafening roar! The sky spun, the earth shattered, and all the surrounding buildings were instantly destroyed, as if cast from mud and sand! After an unknown amount of time, Chu Yun Sheng staggered to his feet, his head and face covered in mud, broken bricks, and blood. When Chu Yun Sheng looked back, he was stunned! The once towering steel walls were now like fragile ceramic, a gaping hole ripped open, several huge cracks spreading like a spider web across half the wall! The north gate had fallen! All the surrounding buildings were toppled and collapsed in large sections! Countless soldiers were buried under the rubble, howling in agony. "Roar!!!" "Roar!!!" From within the billowing dust, a series of loud, long wolf howls echoed from outside the city! A burly figure leaped nimbly through the broken city gate, howling excitedly as it ran, its piercing wolf howls echoing throughout the northern district. From the street closest to Chu Yun Sheng, dust billowed as a small squad of alien warriors rushed out. These alien soldiers were two meters tall, wolf-headed, with bloodshot eyes and sharp, terrifying fangs protruding from their long snouts, gleaming coldly in the sunlight. Ferocious, ferocious, and savage! They were enveloped in a layer of black light, as if black, evil flames were burning upon them! When Chu Yun Sheng saw these black, evil flames, he immediately felt a tightness in his throat, nausea, and unease; a flood of negative emotions surged into his heart. These figures were none other than the Netherfire Werewolves! These Netherfire Werewolves, like sharks smelling blood, moved with lightning speed, quickly rushing towards the surviving human soldiers nearby. Sharp claws and teeth slashed across the battlefield, and with a cruel bite, the surrounding Dragon Kingdom soldiers fell dead one after another, flowers blooming! Some, driven by cruelty, even grabbed human carcasses and began to devour them, their flesh oozing oil, their faces contorted with savage rage, their eyes blazing with a burning green light! "No!!!" Chu Yun Sheng saw several of his comrades' supply soldiers fall prey to the wolves, and a surge of rage coursed through him, his voice booming! "Hey, there's a human cub here, his must be good, he's mine!" Chu Yun Sheng's mournful cry attracted the attention of a Netherfire werewolf. Seeing Chu Yun Sheng, the werewolf's long snout dripped with foul-smelling saliva, and it lunged at him excitedly! Chu Yun Sheng had learned the common language of all races and understood the Netherfire werewolf's words. Just as the Netherfire werewolf was about to pounce on Chu Yun Sheng, a figure suddenly flashed towards him from the side! A figure and a werewolf flashed past, the werewolf's head instantly flying two meters into the air, spewing a large spray of liquid in all directions! With a single s***h, the figure decapitated the werewolf, then quickly retreated with Chu Yunsheng in his arms. However, the surrounding werewolves were highly alert and immediately gave chase, forming an encirclement. The figure pushed Chu Yunsheng into a relatively intact barracks. Inside the barracks, Chu Yunsheng was shocked to see his newcomer—it was his battalion commander, Zheng Zhigang! But then Chu Yunsheng's pupils dilated. Zheng Zhigang looked disheveled, with a gruesome wound on his right side, spitting blood continuously. "Battalion Commander Zheng, you're injured!" Chu Yunsheng exclaimed in surprise. "N-nothing...it's nothing!" Zheng Zhigang replied, his skin withered and pale. He glared fiercely at Chu Yunsheng: "Why aren't you leaving yet? Hurry up and go!" "I left... but the city gate suddenly broke down." "Roar! Roar! Roar!" "Bang! Bang! Bang!" At this moment, angry roars and the sound of pounding on the door came from outside. That squad of Netherfire Werewolves was trying to break down the gate! Zheng Zhigang gritted his teeth and roared, "I'll hold them off for a bit. You hurry to the south teleportation gate, or it'll be too late!" "But...but..." Chu Yunsheng looked at the bloodied Zheng Zhigang, his throat choked with emotion! "You're the top scorer in the provincial college entrance examination. To sacrifice yourself here would be a terrible waste!" "Don't do anything foolish. You must live on in place of those fallen comrades and avenge us!" Zheng Zhigang's eyes were resolute, his voice hoarse as he growled. Chu Yunsheng's eyes were bloodshot: "Okay..." [The mind is powerless to escape the divine arrow, the wind and rain darken the old home. The cold stars of hope are not understood, I recommend myself to Xuanyuan!] [One man can hold off ten thousand!] [The City-Suppressing System is now active...] [The City-Suppressing System is now active!] [System Function 1: When the host is in Nantianmen City and within a ten-kilometer radius outside the city, killing enemies and cultivating will grant cultivation points, increasing strength.] [System Function 2: Each level up will heal all injuries.] [System Function 3: The bound user's innate ability will increase by one level.] [Bound to the system, inheriting the will to protect Nantianmen City?]
