I am getting stronger and stronger in the world of demons and monsters

Vault 36, Office Building 1.

In Lin Xuankong's private office,
The tall Lin Xuankong and Wang Ze, the president of the Fire Seed Organization, stood side by side in front of the thick French windows, looking out at Hope Square of Shelter No. 36.

More than ten days have passed since Granny Jin, a veteran powerhouse of the Fireseed Organization, and Wu Xiang traveled to the other side of the Gate of Descent.

This enormous Hope Square was also built in the last ten days or so.

At the very center of the square, four enormous human-shaped statues surround a massive monument, each looking in a different direction.

The enormous human-shaped sculptures and the tall monument in the center are all made of white jade. The five sculptures are all about 180 meters high, almost the same height as the tallest office building in the now-prosperous Vault 36.

The four human-shaped sculptures depict Lin Xuankong in military uniform, Wang Ze, the president of the Fire Seed Organization, Granny Jin, the strongest warrior in Yunyue Kingdom, and Wu Xiang, the strongest warrior in Yundong Kingdom. Surrounding the four sculptures is a central monument inscribed with the appearances, names, and brief biographies of all the gene warriors and gene powerhouses who sacrificed themselves for the human race of Yinghuoxing since the Fire Seed Organization's founding.

Around the statue, groups of pedestrians walked solemnly to the huge statue and monument, placing various commemorative gifts around them.

Here are cards written by children, handicrafts made by teenagers, various small gifts prepared by young people, and incense sticks placed on the incense burners around the room by middle-aged and elderly people, with wisps of smoke rising from them.

Some tourists and pedestrians stood not far from the huge monument, staring at a name and portrait on it for a long time without saying a word. Others stood near the statue and bowed deeply. After paying their respects, some young people invited their companions to take a photo with them, the monument, and the statue. Some children also raised their hands in salute to the statue and the monument.

Groups of pedestrians came and went, and the huge square, covering hundreds of acres, was bustling with people.

They spoke with different accents; some came from other cities in the Tang Kingdom, some from the Yun Song Kingdom, some from the Yun Dong Kingdom, and some from the Yun Yue Kingdom.

Their accents, appearances, and expressions were all different. Some were solemn, some were sad, some were full of respect, and some had a smile on their face. But without exception, there was a glimmer of hope in everyone's eyes.

Because every human living on this planet received news more than ten days ago: the Central Star Demons, who had ravaged the planet for countless generations and wreaked havoc in this one, had been completely repelled with the support of super source artifacts like Lin Xuankong's Fiery Divine Armor and the Nether Sea Infinite Jade, and the resistance of numerous gene warriors and gene powerhouses from the Fire Seed Organization! Even the portal through which the Central Star Demons traversed the endless starry sky had been completely destroyed by Wu Xiang and Granny Jin! This news was incredibly exciting and exhilarating for every human living on this planet. For these humans who didn't know what would happen five hundred years from now, the terrifying dark cloud that had always hung over the human race of Mars seemed to have completely dissipated!
How could they not be filled with hope!

How could they not be excited!
The massive Hope Plaza newly built in Shelter Thirty-Six is ​​bustling with people—the people of Mars who have come from all over the world after receiving the news. They have traveled thousands of miles to see the statue of Lin Xuankong, who created the miracle; to see Wang Ze, who led the Fire Seed Organization in its relentless battles; to see Granny Jin and Wu Xiang, who sacrificed themselves for the hope of humanity by entering the Demon Nest; and to see the countless heroes who fought for the people of Mars on the monument.

Those who were about to leave the square kept looking back at the bustling square and the tall statues and monuments.

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't believe it! Mr. Lin, who changed the fate of countless people on Mars, is so young! My god, and he's so handsome! He's probably even younger than you!"

"Baby, the way you talk is really scary. It's going to kill me. How could I, an ordinary ninth-tier gene warrior, possibly be compared to Mr. Lin, who saved countless humans on the entire planet Mars? Mr. Lin's achievements are something I could never match, even if I lived a hundred or a thousand lifetimes!"

"Hehe, I was just expressing my feelings. Look how pale you are! I've never expected you, as my boyfriend, to be comparable to the incredibly great Mr. Lin! Tsk tsk, you have no idea how many ignorant young girls envy Ms. You Rui, the captain of Vault 36! Those girls are truly insane! Ms. You Rui, the captain of Vault 36, fought alongside Mr. Lin until they repelled the demons of Polaris. She's not someone those young girls can just casually talk about. If you ask me, the only ones who can talk about Ms. You Rui, who can envy Ms. You Rui, are at least like me."

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. If you keep going, these ladies around here will start hitting you. You're such a blabbermouth. Come on, let's go. I'll take you to Zhang's Spicy Hot Pot on Eighth Street in Vault 36 for a good meal. I heard that Mr. Lin and Ms. You Rui have both eaten there. It's incredibly popular right now. If we go any later, we probably won't be able to get a seat!"

After the young ninth-tier gene warrior finished speaking, he pulled hard on his loud-mouthed girlfriend and tried to squeeze out of the crowd.

"Tch, you two won't even be able to get a seat now. Don't you know that because Mr. Lin once sat in that seat, it's become a must-visit spot for photos? Girls from all over the world line up at midnight every day just to take a picture next to that seat. I've been trying to get a number for over ten days, starting at midnight every day. You two just want to go there and expect to get a seat? That's wishful thinking! Honestly, ignorant young people!"

A woman standing nearby, who was 2.3 meters tall and clearly a seventh-tier dragon-elephant gene female warrior, glanced at the two young men and spoke disdainfully.

"If you want to be realistic, you should go to the ruins of Shelter No. 41 in Stone City. It's said that Mr. Lin personally fought there, and the traces of his battles are still visible. If you go there now, you might have a slight chance of squeezing in to take a picture. Heh, ignorant young people! You can't possibly imagine Mr. Lin's influence!" (End of Chapter)
