Chapter 273 Invitation from the Mighty
The teacher's long speech finally ended, and the oath-taking ceremony came to a close amid encouragement.
Time's up, let the team set off!
Lu Ran moved forward with the team, and when he passed by the rostrum, he met an old acquaintance - Zhang Feng.
"Brother Zhang!"
"Hello, Brother Zhang~" Several people greeted him.
"Good morning." Zhang Feng smiled and nodded, his eyes swept across everyone and finally fell on Lu Ran.
Zhang Feng still remembers that during the final exam of the first semester of senior year, Yuxiang City encountered the Straw Demon Clan and the Night Walk of Ghosts.
That night, Lu Ran received a call from his superiors and formed an army of one man to protect the peace of the area.
When Lu Ran fought until dawn and returned to the shelter, floating behind him was a newly upgraded magic weapon - the Xiaguang Sword.
At that time, Zhang Feng already admired Lu Ran.
He was very sure that Lu Ran's future was limitless.
After that night, in the world of Rain Alley City, people used four words to describe Lu Ran - the best in Rain Alley.
The reality was a heavy blow to everyone in Yuxiang, including Zhang Feng.
Zhang Feng’s vision was accurate; Lu Ran was indeed rising rapidly.
But Zhang Feng, like everyone else, could never have imagined that Lu Ran could grow to this point!
The most beautiful rainy alley?
Smaller.
He should be famous all over the world and be the pride of the world!
Zhang Feng looked at Lu Ran and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It really is like a dream.
"Let's go, Brother Zhang." Lu Ran smiled at the leading soldier and lowered his voice, "Signatures and photos will have to wait until the mission is over."
Zhang Feng: “.”
Do I look like some kind of star-chaser?
I'm the team leader who watched you grow up. Well, an autograph is fine.
I'll give it to my son when I get home. He'll probably like it very much, right?
"Haha~" Chang Ying couldn't help but chuckle, "I want one too!"
Lu Ran said unhappily, "Why are you joining in the fun?"
Lu Ran and his teammates stick together through thick and thin, and are willing to go through life and death for each other.
So you asked me for an autograph?
"Let's go!" Zhang Feng gave an order and led the group of five towards the school gate.
Several buses were already waiting outside the gate.
Lu Ran got on the bus with the team. When he passed the third row of seats, a white and tender hand suddenly reached out and held Lu Ran's arm.
"Hmm?" Lu Ran turned his head and saw the sorcerer believer Bai Manni.
Jiang Ruyi followed behind Lu Ran, her eyes dim, her gaze fell on the girl's palm.
Bai Manni didn't say anything, but just looked up at Lu Ran and shook her head gently.
Lu Ran's good mood suddenly disappeared.
"Thank you." Lu Ran nodded gently and whispered, "Take care."
Bai Manni had a worried look on her face and whispered, "You too."
Like Chang Ying, Bai has already become Lu Ran's consultant.
Every morning on the 15th, Lu Ran would ask Chang Ying to tell his fortune and would also ask Bai Manni if she was nervous.
Compared with Chang Shengun, Master Bai's predictions are more accurate.
After all, she doesn't rely on calculations.
A powerful believer in the divination can make nine out of ten divinations come true, but of course there will be one that does not come true!
The followers of the spellcaster are different. They are not concerned with probability issues, but rather with a genuine premonition of crisis.
The reason why Bai Manni looked sad was that this graduation exam was different from the usual nights of defending the city.
Students do not work together as a class to guard a shelter.
They will be assigned to various places in Yuxiang City in small teams.
In other words, Bai Manni's team is most likely not with Lu Ran's team.
Except for a few students who are still in the Mist Realm, students in the Creek Realm and above are not allowed to stay in the shelter, but must perform their work outside the building.
This is very worrying.
Believers and students are first human beings, and then candidates.
Scores are indeed important, but life is more important!
The two words "Lu Ran" are the golden signboard that saves your life.
For most people, the sense of security that these two words can bring far exceeds the three words "moon-gazing man".
"Team Leader Jiang." Bai Manni seemed to have noticed something and immediately greeted him.
It was not difficult to see that she was trying to please him, as if she was worried that Jiang Ruyi would misunderstand her.
Although Jiang Ruyi is not among the geniuses, she is indeed a genius.
Her aura is invisible, but it can be felt clearly by everyone around her.
"Yeah." Jiang Ruyi was also very generous. When passing by, he patted Bai Manni on the shoulder and said, "Take care."
As the students took their seats, the vehicle started and headed east.
There are only five teams in Class 4 () with just over twenty people.
After arriving in Hedong, the vehicle stopped twice, and a total of three team leaders got off the vehicle with three teams.
Only Lu Ran's team and Bai Manni's team were left in the car.
"Will we be with Brother Ran?" Qian Hao clenched his chubby hands and looked at the street scene outside the car window with a nervous face.
He was afraid that the vehicle would stop again.
"We are going" Bai Manni realized that the vehicle was heading towards the city center.
Under the blue sky and white clouds, the towering Wulie Building was getting closer and closer to everyone.
Qian Hao scratched his head and looked at the captain: "Don't tell us to stay at the command headquarters?"
Bai Manni's eyes lit up.
As the location of the command center, Wulie Building has an extremely powerful guard force!
If the team can take the exam here, the safety factor will naturally be higher.
What's more, there are powerful people stationed on the top floor of Wulie Building! Although the powerful people will not take action easily, they will definitely move if they encounter special events.
With Bai Manni's prayer, the vehicle really stopped in front of the Wulie Building.
"Go, get off!"
The two team leaders stood up at the same time, which made Qian Hao smile so much that he jumped up and said, "Haha!"
Such an action also made the two Moon-Watching Team leaders laugh.
Of course they know what students are thinking.
Besides, the fat boy was naturally funny, so the two Moon Watchers did not scold him.
However, after getting off the car, Qian Hao's face fell.
The female leader took them to the west side of Wulie Building.
Zhang Feng took Lu Ran and others and headed straight to the main entrance of Wulie Building, which is the north gate.
Directly in front of the main entrance is a large square with a very broad view.
The bustling commercial street is built around the square.
It is not difficult to imagine what a neon-lit urban night scene this place will be like at night.
"Brother Zhang." Deng Yutang looked at the revolving door of Wulie Building, "Are we going to guard this door tonight?"
Soldiers standing guard can be seen everywhere around the building, including the gate.
Wulie Building is undoubtedly an important place!
Even on weekdays, entry to most floors of the building is prohibited.
Around the 15th day of the lunar calendar, security here is even tighter.
Is a team of cadets needed here?
Zhang Feng thought for a moment, raised his hand and pointed forward: "There."
Several people looked in the direction of his finger and saw a huge square.
Tian Tian opened her mouth slightly: "You want us to guard the square?"
The central square has a very broad view and is well connected.
The team members stood in an empty square, and the evil demons descending upon the surrounding area could be seen at a glance.
Isn't this just making them targets?
Zhang Feng said, “We will be stationed in the area in front of the gate.
If there are evil spirits in the square, we will naturally go and clean them up."
Deng Yutang weighed the Tianchen Spear in his hand and said, "Now, I have no choice but to get a high score."
Everyone: "."
"Brother Lu, as I remember, you were the one who killed the Demon King there?" Deng Yutang raised his gun and pointed it at the area on the east side of the square.
"Right, right, right!" Chang Ying nodded repeatedly, "That's right, when Ran Bao slashed with his sword, the dog's head flew so high!"
Lu Ran’s first-person perspective does not allow him to see the entire battlefield.
But this is the city center, and there are cameras everywhere, so Lu Ran’s battle is presented to the world in an all-round and no-blind angle manner.
"What a pity." Lu Ran sighed, "The magic crystal of the Jiangjing vicious dog belongs to the Moon Watcher's troops.
If only I could get it back and help you break through and advance."
Zhang Feng: “.”
The teammates smiled, feeling warm in their hearts. It was undoubtedly a great fortune to be able to be with Lu Ran.
Several people understood Lu Ran and knew that he was not joking and would really give it.
"Xiao Lu wants that Jiang-grade magic crystal?" Suddenly, a middle-aged man's voice came from behind.
Everyone turned to look, and Zhang Feng was the first to stand at attention and salute.
Ge Bin pressed his hand and glanced at the young people.
"Captain Ge." Lu Ran smiled embarrassedly, "I just said that. I understand the rules."
With this title, he naturally considered himself a member of Patrol Team 004.
The others stood properly and dared not make a sound.
Ge Bin is of medium build and plain looks, and looks very ordinary.
But he had appeared in Lu Ran's camera, and everyone knew that this man was a powerful man in Jiangjing, and the main force guarding Yuxiang!
Ge Bin nodded: "Come up with me and have a chat?"
"Ah?" Lu Ran was a little surprised.
Lu Ran considered himself a team member, but Ge Bin did not consider Lu Ran a subordinate.
Ge Bin just smiled and asked, "Do you have time?"
"Yes." Lu Ran responded immediately.
It is morning now and it is still early before nightfall, so Lu Ran certainly has time.
Moreover, since the great human being came downstairs personally to invite him, Lu Ran couldn't refuse him.
Ge Bin looked at Jiang Ruyi who was standing beside him and said, "Come together."
"Okay." Jiang Ruyi nodded slightly. Since returning from the pilgrimage, she also followed the patrol team to carry out tasks on the fifteenth day of every month.
It's half a team member.
Ge Bin nodded to Zhang Feng, not as serious as expected, and said with a smile: "I'll take your people away and return them to you later."
"Yes!" Zhang Feng stood straight and spoke in a loud voice.
Putting aside Ge Bin's identity as a powerful human, he is the deputy commander of the Wangyue Detachment of the Yunshan City Divine Bureau.
Zhang Feng is a member of the Moon Watching Team of the Yuxiang City Divine Bureau.
The two parties have a formal superior-subordinate relationship.
"Let's go." Ge Bin turned and walked towards the revolving door, and gestured to the soldiers standing guard next to the door, indicating that they were allowed to pass.
Lu Ran let his right hand hang naturally and shook his fingers gently.
Jiang Ruyi gave Lu Ran a light look.
But she still reached out and, led by Lu Ran, walked into the Wulie Building, the iconic building of Yuxiang City.
