"This is... a tombstone?"
What came into view was a row of tombstones that seemed to stretch endlessly.
A tragic and devastating atmosphere immediately swept over us.
"How many people died here?"
Ye Tian frowned, deeply moved.
Judging by the number of tombstones, there are definitely over 100,000!
How could so many people die in peacetime?
General Wang, standing at the very front, took off his battle hat and looked solemn.
Suddenly, a loud voice rang out.
"Salute to our heroes!"
Whoosh!
General Wang raised his arm and gave a powerful salute.
Elder Guan and the members of the Dragon Hall bowed down towards the tombstones.
Ye Tian frowned involuntarily.
He is the Celestial Emperor of the Immortal Realm. In the entire universe, besides parents, who is qualified to receive his respect?
Elder Guan was displeased to see Ye Tian standing so proudly and said in a low voice.
"Ye Tian, those buried here are heroes who sacrificed themselves to protect humanity."
"They deserve the respect of all humankind!"
To sacrifice oneself to protect humanity?
Ye Tian's heart was suddenly touched.
Unconsciously, he recalled that before he became an Immortal Emperor, he was on a planet.
Together with countless warriors, they fought to the death against the invading demons to protect the humans on that planet.
Those brave warriors, one after another, fearlessly faced death.
Before the demon army, they fell in droves, turning the battlefield into a meat grinder.
However, not a single person flinched.
Even if they were to die in battle, they never retreated a single step!
Because behind them are their homes and their families.
They cannot retreat!
In that battle, hundreds of millions of people died, their bodies piled up like mountains, and their blood flowed like rivers.
Ye Tian was completely impressed by the bravery and fearlessness of those warriors and their belief in sacrificing their lives for their homeland.
He actually broke through on the front lines and comprehended the Way of Protection.
They slaughtered hundreds of millions of demons in one fell swoop and killed the Demon King.
This forced the demons to retreat, and they never dared to lay a finger on that star again.
Although they were victorious, those hundreds of millions of warriors will never return.
They sacrificed their most precious lives to protect their homeland.
This is something that Ye Tian and all of humanity on the planet should remember and cherish forever.
At this moment, Ye Tian looked at the dark tombstone in front of him and heard Elder Guan's words.
I couldn't help but feel a sense of respect.
"To die protecting all humanity deserves the name of a hero!"
"You deserve it, I, Ye Tian, bow to you!"
Ye Tian solemnly bowed down towards the tombstones.
Even if the person buried under this tombstone is as insignificant as an ant.
But their spirit is noble, shining as brightly as the sun and moon!
"General Wang, the number of tombstones here has increased quite a bit in just one month."
After bowing, Elder Guan sighed deeply, his voice filled with sorrow.
Wang Zhanjiang, on the contrary, was much more carefree, he said.
"There are 2,741 more people than when you came down last time."
"However, this is our destiny!"
“Every special forces soldier in our division is prepared to die.”
"Unlike you, I'm not so easily saddened."
Just as Wang Zhanjiang finished speaking, a group of menacing soldiers passed by.
Everyone was covered in blood and riddled with wounds.
Ye Tian finally understood why the soldiers he saw when he first came to the Dragon Hall had such a strong aura of killing intent.
So that's how they got out.
"Elder Guan, let's go!"
"Let's go to the front lines!"
General Wang put on his battle cap and greeted Elder Guan.
After passing through the long cemetery, we boarded the war department's bus in the wide open space ahead.
The bus drove forward for about half an hour when suddenly a city wall several tens of meters high appeared in front of it.
It is much higher than the city walls built by ancient cities to defend against enemies.
The city walls were filled with soldiers dressed in battle robes, their killing intent palpable.
At the same time, various heavy firearms were displayed!
"Fire!"
At that moment, someone on the city wall suddenly gave an order.
Boom boom boom!
Instantly, the roar of artillery fire filled the air, deafeningly loud.
It was as if I had suddenly arrived at a battlefield filled with gunfire!
