Phecda members all over the country received a notification from the headquarters, and that shocked them.
"That Gu Jun from Eastern State is still alive?"
"He came back alive. It's said that he made a great contribution to the sect!"
Phecda was a mystery to the outside world, but the Spell Department was a mystery to the inner circle of Phecda. Most people did not know about Dreamlands and other details. They only knew that Gu Jun had sacrificed himself to win the Nightmare Illness mission, and now Gu Jun had returned alive.
After half a year of publicity, Gu Jun had become a celebrity within Phecda.
A person would be praised as a hero after death, and with his good looks, many people were willing to listen to him, especially his fangirls.
Now that the man had come back from the dead, naturally everyone was excited. Their passion to join the Spell Department was reignited. The first step was to join the Spell Department, the second was to get to know Gu Jun, the third was to launch an attack, and the fourth was …
There were many other places that were excited. Eastern State's Medical Department and Spell Department were overjoyed.
Lee Yuerui, Wu Dong, and Lin Xiaotang finally knew who the masked man that they had been serving recently was. So, it was an old acquaintance of theirs!
That evening, the masked man and Wu Shiyu's group came to the restaurant at the recreational centre, and they ran into each other.
The restaurant was different from the canteen. The canteen only had the same dishes, and the customers had to order them; the restaurant would cater to the needs of the members. As long as you had the voucher, other than the protected animals, you could get anything you wanted. But for someone like Gu Jun, he would have no problem coming to the restaurant for every meal.
Furthermore, Wu Shiyu was the manager of the restaurant, a corrupt person who often used the name of tasting dishes to get his own food.
"Brother, it's me! Ha ha ha! " Lee Yuerui rushed toward the group, and he laughed excitedly. "I've missed you so much!"
"Hero!" The muscles on Wu Dong's body were even more muscular than before. It seemed like he had been to the gym a lot. He looked at Gu Jun with stars in his eyes. "You're my idol."
Lin Xiaotang greeted him honestly, "Doctor Gu." She had been through a lot. She was no longer the rebellious girl. She respected Gu Jun very much.
But of course, if they were impolite, not to mention whether Gu Jun would do anything, the five thugs beside him would definitely do something.
Peacock, Malachite and the rest had been attending Chinese lessons for the past half a month. Actually, the language of the land's travellers was pretty much the same, it was just that the fonts and pronunciations had changed. Therefore, they were able to learn very quickly.
Now that Gu Jun had officially reunited with the three of them, he said to Li Yuerui, "You don't say, sometimes I really miss those idiotic paintings of yours."
"Haha! Then I'll have to send you more. "Li Yuerui chuckled." Can we take a picture together now? "
Of course he was trying to get some attention. After all, they were part of the Phecda circle. If they could take a picture with Gu Jun and send it to Phecda's WeChat Moments with the caption 'My brother and I', the likes would definitely go through the roof.
"Me too, me too." Even though Wu Dong looked honest, he was not a complete idiot. This was a good chance to get some attention!
Of course, that did not matter. After all, Gu Jun had taken many pictures with the three of them.
However, he continued to wear the mask and behind every picture, there was Wu Shiyu's ghostly expressionless face stealing the limelight.
Li Yuerui uploaded the pictures and the pictures of Gu Jun having a meal to his WeChat Moments. As expected, there was a flood of likes and replies. "Gu Jun???" "Envious of the Spell Department." "Can you introduce me to him?" "I want to touch his face."
Everyone was curious about Gu Jun's current appearance. According to the headquarters, his face was disfigured and his left pinkie was missing.
But how did he get disfigured? Was it that serious to wear a mask?
Gu Jun's mysterious mask only came off on the day of the commendation ceremony.
The Commendation Ceremony for Comrade Gu Jun was held at the headquarters' Phecda Auditorium. The auditorium was decorated to the brim. The auditorium that could hold more than five thousand people was fully occupied.
Due to the recent peace, everyone had a smile on their faces. There were people from the headquarters, people from the Spell Department and those who were invited from Eastern State. Prof Gu, Professor Qin, Brother Qiang, Surgeon Zhu and others who were Gu Jun's mentors were all present.
They had a reunion with Gu Jun at the backstage of the auditorium. Naturally, it was a joyous occasion.
At the same time, many Phecda members from all over the country were gathered in their respective conference rooms to watch the commendation ceremony.
The host started the ceremony. The old director from the headquarters and Tong Ye went on stage to give a speech. When Gu Jun walked onto the stage, the crowd froze for a moment before standing up to applaud. The thunderous applause shook the entire auditorium.
Gu Jun was dressed in a formal Phecda uniform with the star-shaped Phecda medal pinned on his chest. His posture was tall and handsome.
He had already cut his hair short and removed his mask. The skin on his face still had a scary purplish red color and it was covered in scars.
Everyone instantly understood the meaning of disfigurement. It was not just disfigurement, they could feel the inhuman pain just by looking at it.
"This Gu Jun sure is tough."
"Too tough."
"He should be able to fix it, right?"
At that moment, at the front row of the auditorium, Uncle Dan whispered to his friends, "Hand this face over to the plastic surgery department, they should be able to fix it with a seventy percent chance."
He was joking when he said he would go to Korea. Actually, most of the surgeries were done by domestic experts.
This was because surgeries relied heavily on experience, experience was built on the number of surgeries and the number of surgeries was built on the population. For example, some surgeries overseas could only be done a few times a year but a local surgeon could do dozens or hundreds of surgeries a year.
The plastic surgery department at the headquarters had plenty of solutions but Gu Jun said it was not urgent. Furthermore, he was so busy recently that he did not have the time.
"Actually, I don't think it's that bad." Wu Shiyu looked at the figure on stage. "Raw prawns are small fresh meat but cooked prawns are delicious too, right?"
"Yes, it's fine once you get used to it." Cai Zixuan sighed as he touched his smooth forehead. "Tycoon Jun's hair and eyebrows are still there, how can he be ugly?"
On the stage, Gu Jun first accepted the first-class merit medal from the old director. Then he walked to the podium and stood before the microphone. The applause from the audience gradually stopped.
He nodded at the several thousand people before him and turned to the script on the podium. He started to read, "Respected leaders and colleagues …"
Some of the contents of this speech were written by him, and some were added by the higher-ups. Then, it went through a lot of checks and polishing.
Therefore, it was not necessarily true to say that all of them were his true feelings, but there were still some of them.
"I believe the things that have kept me going are those beautiful things. This world is dangerous and it is becoming more and more dangerous, but it is in the face of danger and darkness that the beautiful things that we have become more precious.
"In the many epidemic prevention and control operations that I have participated in, some of my dear comrades have sacrificed their lives, some of them have sacrificed their sanity, some of them are sitting in this hall right now, and some of them have to leave for the time being."
"I believe that this universe is meaningless, the only thing that is meaningful is ourselves. We create meaning for ourselves and for others. "
Gu Jun paused and focused his eyes on the audience and the people who were watching the livestream. "Dear comrades, thank you for giving me meaning."
At that moment, Wang Ruoxiang, Gao Yi, and the rest were also in front of the screen. They applauded again. Wang Ruoxiang was choking slightly.
In the auditorium, a new round of applause rang out. Whether it was Professor Gu or Professor Qin, they were both gratified.
Wu Shiyu, Cai Zixuan, Xue Ba, Uncle Dan and the rest naturally applauded as well. 'Ah Jun, you have also given us meaning.' Peacock, Malachite and Gold also applauded. Their eyes were red and tears were falling. They could not return to the City of Kindle anymore, they would try their best to continue the golden age with the Phecda Heroes.
"Thank you, everyone." Gu Jun smiled. "Thank you, leaders."
The crowd stood up again and the applause in the hall grew louder. It echoed through the hall and the Phecda members from all over the country.
