Chapter 266: Witnessing History (3)
“Did Victory City also build an underground shelter?” Just then, the guard looked at him and asked curiously.
“Yes, it’s similar to this place.” Feng Qi immediately nodded.
Next, he followed the guard to the open metal door on the right. After entering, they followed the stairs down to a s.p.a.cious laboratory.
In the laboratory, many figures in scientific research uniforms were busy working on the workbenches.
After the guard asked Feng Qi to wait on the spot, he went forward and chatted with a white-haired old man. A moment later, he returned to Feng Qi.
“I’ve already explained your situation to Director Lu. Next, I need you to cooperate with the test. If you pa.s.s the a.s.sessment, we might give you the ident.i.ty card of a resident of the Star City Shelter, but you have to labor. The Shelter doesn’t feed idle people.”
After explaining the situation to him, the guard greeted Director Lu and left the room.
Next, Feng Qi went with Director Lu for a series of physical examinations.
The report was produced very quickly.
However, as if to be on the safe side, Director Lu began a new round of examinations on him and drew three tubes of blood.
During the blood draw, Feng Qi was afraid that Suction Cup would attack violently.
Fortunately, since there was no killing intent directed towards him, even during the blood draw, Suction Cup closed its eyes tightly and did not react, making him heave a sigh of relief.
Before the results were out, Director Lu looked at him and smiled.
“You’re from Victory City?”
When Feng Qi heard that, he immediately nodded and asked,
“How long will the test results take?”
“To be on the safe side, there will be a few more testing procedures. It will take another three hours. I’ll bring you to see the shelter commander then.”
“Then can I go out for a walk first?”
Looking at Suction Cup lying on his chest, Director Lu nodded to his surprise.
“Sure you can look around, but we’ll need another measure in place.”
“Be my guest.”
Then, Director Lu added two more shackles around his ankles and asked a researcher to follow him, giving him the freedom to wander around.
They returned to the square.
Looking at the stream of figures in the square, he had too many questions in his heart.
At this moment, he heard a recital in young voices.
Looking to the right in the direction of the sound, he realized that there was a cla.s.sroom behind the open metal door. Hundreds of youths were looking at the virtual screen on the blackboard and reciting history texts loudly.
After the recital, the teacher standing on the podium began to introduce the historical figures in the text.
Standing outside the metal door, Feng Qi looked at the impa.s.sioned teacher who was narrating history and the students with firm eyes who were listening attentively to the cla.s.s. He was deeply moved.
Once upon a time, he had also listened to Old w.a.n.g’s teachings like this.
While looking up to the heroes of history in the stories, he looked forward to the beauty of the future.
As for why there was still a history cla.s.s in the time of the apocalypse, Feng Qi did not think there was anything wrong.
Because history was the soul and spine of a race.
A race without a backbone was just like a sheet of loose sand.
History was the foundation of humanity’s peace and security, shaping the common human ident.i.ty.
At this moment, the teacher standing on the podium suddenly smiled at the students and asked,
“I’ve finished introducing these two great historical figures. Let me ask you a question.”
“Now you all know that the number one genius in history is Lin Guyuan, and the number one all-rounded talent is Zhang Daowen. But who knows that there is also one such a genius? His life was not as dazzling as the previous two, but he had once surpa.s.sed all the geniuses of his era and laid the foundation and direction for the continuation of our human race. His light has always shone in the long river of history and has never been extinguished. He is known as the lighthouse of history. Do you know who he is?”
Just as Feng Qi was curious about who this person was, a chorus of shouts sounded in the cla.s.s.
“Great Ancestor, Feng Qi!”
Hearing the name called out by the children, Feng Qi was shocked.
[Good lord, I was so shocked 1 shivered… There’s the statue of the historic great, the Breaking Dawn Flag, and now you’ve even become Great Ancestor. Ah Qi, you’re about to take off!]
[Wait… F*ck, why isn’t there anything about the Great Ancestor’s father, the narrator? I’m so angry. History always ignores the most handsome me. I’m unhappy and depressed..]
