452 Grand Meeting of Victory (1/2)

”Everyone is here. Return to the motherships!”

In the darkness of the universe, shattered corpses and metallic pieces of wreckage were everywhere.

For this kind of war, neither side would give up unless one side was completely annihilated. Therefore, the number of casualties was impossibly high.

After the burst of joy that everyone felt at having survived the calamity, every human on the battlefield lay limply in space. They were completely exhausted.

In their communication channel, the Star Battle Marshal suddenly roared. When everyone heard the command, they obeyed immediately.

RUMBLE~

The motherships, which had been concealed in the depths of outer space, began to move closer once again. The door to the motherships then opened.

Everyone felt like they just woke up from a dream. They gathered their remaining energy and began to move toward the motherships.

They were heavily injured and wanted nothing more than to enter the healing chamber to recuperate.

Feng Lin's heart stirred, increasing his speed as he took the lead in entering the healing chamber.

”First-year student of the Great Wall University, Feng Lin. Cultivation base at the adept realm, injury percentage at 62%. Mental strength is completely drained, and damage was found to the bone structure. The bone of your left arm is broken…” The moment he entered the healing chamber, the A.I. scanned him and instantly gave out the most accurate data with regards to his body.

After that, the door to the healing chamber closed as a clear flow of water gushed forth. This seemed to be a flow of water, yet it also resembled clouds and mist. It permeated all pores on Feng Lin's body, seeping into it.

This was clearly liquified spiritual qi!

(Seems like the Great Wall University has paid a very high price for this battle.)

The Light God Mecha Armor on Feng Lin had automatically been unequipped under the control of the A.I. His body was covered in blood, and he looked to be in an extremely miserable state.

After such an intense fight, all the energy in his body was completely exhausted. Although his body was a stone monkey body, with stone skin and steel bones, invulnerable to spears and swords, he was extremely close to the breaking point.

Boundless spiritual qi enveloped him, causing him to feel as though he was in a hot spring. He also felt a cool breeze blowing through his body.

The blood and dirt faded away. His pores completely opened and were like millions of mouths that were frenziedly devouring the spiritual qi to replenish his body.

Hu…

Feng Lin puffed out a deep breath, which was like an arrow that shot outwards. His consciousness also began to sank with no limits, entering a serene state of silence. His heart was at peace with no other fluctuations.

Feng Lin entered a deep slumber. His body sank into a curled up state, like a baby in its mother's arms.

He was truly too tired.

Regardless of his body, heart, or soul, all were exhausted to the max.

It was a dreamless sleep.

When he opened his eyes again and looked at the time, he discovered that over sixty hours had passed. The duration he was asleep for had exceeded two days.

After he wore his uniform and exited the healing chamber, the A.I. of the mothership instantly issued a reminder.

”Warrior of the Great Wall University, Mr. Feng Lin, good day to you. We have already returned to the Great Wall University. Next, a grand meeting of victory will be organized to reward the brave interstellar students and warriors! The victory of humans completely depended on the sacrifices and contributions of all of you. You have to attend the grand meeting for sure…”

During the days where he was asleep, the mothership had already traversed through a wormhole and back to the Great Wall University.

Feng Lin hadn't even returned to his residence yet when the A.I. sent him a message regarding the information of the grand meeting. He could only head over there.

The more he proceeded forward, the louder the sounds of cheering became within the Great Wall University. The sounds flowed forth like wildfire, complementing the faces of everyone that was filled with joy and happiness.

”We won! Humanity really won!”

”All warriors of humanity are truly awesome!”

”We, interstellar humanity, would never give up. We would never be defeated!”

…

Elated cheering echoed; everyone here felt proud from the depths of their hearts.

Feng Lin's eyes blinked. Silver light gleamed as he clearly saw a surge of dazzling sharp aura emitted from the crown of everyone's head.

He had some understanding in his mind.

A large war like what they had faced would naturally cause everyone to feel an immense sense of danger, the danger of annihilation. But at the same time, before a supremely powerful enemy, the hearts and souls of all humans would be united as one.

The war blazed furiously, igniting the wills of humanity, tempering their wills, and hardening them to steel. Nothing could shake them easily.

The hatred and anger—all the negative feelings in their hearts were all ground away cleanly.

The great waves of the ocean would sift through the sand, revealing gold.

Those fence-sitters, passive people, and traitors were all completely cleansed.

Right now, the internal factions of humanity all had an unprecedentedly good relationship with each other. The hearts of everyone were as one.

The human heart must be united for the heart of the army to be united.

A war of this scale was a great calamity.

But danger always co-existed with opportunity.

After surviving the calamity, it was normal for the attitudes of everyone to change, becoming completely new people.

What could be anticipated was that after this calamity, the Great Wall Army and the Great Wall University would welcome a period of explosive development. The experts of the younger generations would emerge and their strengths would all be greatly enhanced as well.

The reason the Great Wall University was located at the boundary of the Milky Way Galaxy was also why they were one of the top ten universities in the cosmos.

A treasure sword had to be sharpened. The fragrance of plum blossoms only emitted during the bitter chill of winter.

As the first line of defense against the alien races, the situation here was always filled with danger. If there was the slightest bit of carelessness, the first line of defense would be breached and humanity would surely suffer.

But under such intense tempering, the 'rewards and harvests' gained would far surpass what the others received.

The tempering that the students of the Great Wall University had to go through was something the other nine universities couldn't provide.

In addition, the Great Wall University also had the chance to obtain some of the valuable resources not available in the Milky Way Galaxy.
