The soul hunters were armed with long swords and had pistols on their waists. They were both men and women, old and young.
Among them, the youngest is only sixteen years old, still at the age of passion, while the oldest already has white hair. Even though they have retired from the army, they still came back.
Their postures were upright, and their sword-holding movements were in unison, as if they had gone through countless training sessions. They had the spirit of a soldier, exuded an awe-inspiring aura, and stood as steady as sculptures.
At this time, groups of ordinary people in cloth clothes slowly walked up.
Unlike the soul hunters, their hands were shaking as they held the various farm tools, but this did not affect their progress.
Even though their legs were shaking and their whole bodies were trembling with fear, they still walked up step by step.
These are ordinary residents.
They signed up for different reasons. Some said, "I have wanted to be a Soul Hunter since I was a child, and today is the same. I want to survive with the honor of Soul Hunter and bring honor to my mother." Some said, "The girl next door likes heroes, I want to be a hero." Some simply admired Su Lin and the famous Soul Hunter leaders and wanted to stand on the same team with them.
Some of them fought with great passion to defend their homeland, some knew that after the team was wiped out, everyone in Praya would be in trouble, so they chose to climb the wall and fight for that glimmer of hope, and some wanted to gain some benefits and gain the honor of being a soul hunter.
But no matter what, they were all prepared to die when they came here.
Judging from their actions rather than their intentions, they chose to fight for their homeland. Their fearlessness of life and death was enough to make everyone in awe.
At this time, this team has gathered 268 local soul hunters. The reason why there are so many people is that in addition to the seriously injured and dead, many retired soul hunters or new soul hunters who have not yet joined the official team have come from all over to participate.
Some of them still have childish faces, as if they have not yet grown up, while others have white hair and can hardly hold their swords steadily.
There were as many as four to five hundred residents serving as bait.
The number of residents is actually far greater than the number of soul hunters, which means that there must be a situation where the soul hunters are unable to protect the residents in time.
There will inevitably be tragic casualties as this team marches.
But even so, most of the residents stayed.
…Because, they saw a person who existed in the story that had been circulating in Praia for more than sixty years.
Many people are unaware of his exploits, but after the recent lockdown, the older generation has spread the word about his deeds.
He had lived through Praia’s most dangerous times.
He devised a method that would be sufficient to shelter the entire Praya.
He accepted the blessing from the legendary gods and continued the glory of Praia Soul Hunt to this day.
He once used his tiny human strength to fight against a natural disaster that could easily destroy this land, and achieved miraculous success.
Not to mention, two days ago, he had sailed alone to the most dangerous place.
This is the story before their eyes.
The legendary savior hero, Su Lin climbed up the city wall.
He was wearing an ordinary black suit with the top button of his collar buttoned up. His young face still looked young, as if time had never left any mark on him.
No matter how big the tsunami was, it could not destroy him, and the sharp claws of the Bloody Sea King could not kill him.
Miraculously, he appeared in front of everyone yesterday, still looking as young as he did sixty years ago.
People say that he is a lucky man favored by God and blessed by the world.
He walked to the front of the barrier, the outermost layer of the city wall, and turned around.
With his back to the barrier, facing all the gazes of admiration, awe, or jealousy, he raised his eyes and faced all the people.
Even the players and residents who were still staying under the city walls and doing some auxiliary work raised their heads at this time.
The players stopped muttering and complaining.
Faced with this inexplicable palpitation, they felt like they couldn't say anything.
On the city wall,
The azure, glowing mermaid appeared behind the man in the front. Her figure was like a converging and flowing blue river, revealing an extremely pure and clean alien beauty.
The brilliant light sprinkled on Su Mingan's hair and face. His eyes, which were calm to the point of being indifferent, seemed to be locked with extremely deep memories.
He was looking at the people who were looking at him.
Some of them are tall and energetic, while others are pale and thin with pointed chins and monkey cheeks.
But without exception, since they stood here, they have not turned around and left.
They may be wearing coarse linen or gorgeous brocade. They have different appearances, personalities, and past experiences.
But now, they all stood here, and there was no difference between them.
The sea breeze was blowing, and their thin robes fluttered up and down. The surrounding environment seemed noisy and cold.
Unstoppable fear spread among the crowd, and this large group of more than 600 people seemed particularly quiet.
Su Mingan saw many familiar faces among the well-organized Soul Hunting Team.
There was the Minister of the South District, Carlocha, with a serious expression and a straight posture, the Minister of the East District, Esk, who had earrings all over his head and a very unique personality, the white-haired old man Clifford, the charming Deputy Minister Doya, the S-level Soul Hunters Christie and Ed in black clothes and black hair, and many Soul Hunter executives he was not familiar with.
Even Ying, the leader of the Soul Hunters, was leaning against the city wall, playing with a silver pistol in his hand.
