Gwen.
This is a very common name in Night City.
The first generation of fire bearers stood up when the building was about to collapse and turned the tide to save the entire Night City. This legendary experience made Gwen become a symbol that everyone aspired to at that time, and for a long, long time after that Here, this yearning and respect are deeply imprinted in people's hearts - everyone wants to be Gwen, and this kind of hope and sustenance becomes the name of their offspring after they have offspring.
However, today, decades after the death of the original fire bearer, only the humblest workers, idlers and untouchables in the lower class are still using this name.
The reason is simple, this name sucks.
With class differentiation, workers who have only received a minimum general education have limited literacy. Most of the books they have read are only the few textbooks they received when they received general education, and the names of people in the welfare institutions are also quite casual. They even give some names that are not named at all: such as Ergouzi, Acha, Shadaguo, and Dashu.
Some educated workers want to change their names, but since they have only received a few years of general education and their education level is too low, they can only choose something that sounds loud from the textbook. The name of a big shot.
This is also the only inheritance that the fire-passing heroes in the past can leave to future generations.
The gentlemen who have mastered knowledge and monopolized advanced knowledge feel that sharing the same name with lower-class people is an insult to their status. Therefore, middle-class intellectual aristocrats who pursue respectability disdain to use such names. If a noble uses such a name, they will regard it as a shame for nobility.
Fortunately, there are no rules about avoiding people's names in the City of Night.
Getting back to the topic, although there are many people named Gwen in the city, there is only one Gwen with the title of "Wuxin".
Yes, the one known to Meng Yiran, all engineers, and even all workers with general education in Night City.
The original firebringer.
Meng Yiran's mind went blank after being shocked by the impact. Several people in the room suddenly fell into deathly silence, leaving only the buzzing sound of the machine running.
However, after the impact, the first person to speak was not Meng Yiran.
The huge and muscular body pushed Meng Yiran's small body aside. The sturdy man rushed up with a look of shock and his voice was like rolling thunder: Gwen? You said your name is Gwen? How can this be!
He excitedly stretched out his hand to grab the figure, but his hand passed through the light screen, disrupting the shadow of the shadow in the material world. The figure's light and shadow were like the reflection of a stone thrown into a lake. Ripples spread out in circles where his hand passed through.
The impossible blurred projection swayed and moved back, avoiding the generous palm of the sturdy man. As soon as it was far away, the unstable interference state stopped in an instant: there were not many people coming here, but every time Everyone who sees me is as surprised as you, how about you?
Ge Wen's words ended abruptly with a confused ending. He seemed to have discovered something, but because the projection was so rough that even the face could not be drawn, so no one knew whether he had discovered it or not. Something was noticed.
Are you really the fire bearer?
At this time, Meng Yiran recovered from the long shock and asked with some stumbling,
There was unconcealed respect in his tone, and his demeanor was extremely humble. There was no trace of his past arrogant and bad temper.
The figure did not speak, but shook his head made of light curtains, nodded slightly, and answered his question silently.
Then how could you? Meng Yiran was so excited that he could hardly speak clearly. He never dreamed that one day he would be able to talk face-to-face with King Ge Wen of Wu Xin, so that now his mind was blank and his body was shaking uncontrollably due to excitement. With.
If we really want to make an analogy, this scene is probably what Kong Yiji felt when he saw Confucius.

This is the price of the Fire Passing Ceremony. The humanoid light and shadow said slowly, and there was no emotion in his voice. A long time ago, I witnessed the truth here, and finally chose to repair the power furnace and inherit the First Fire. At the same time, as the price of saving the city, I was also kept forever. it's here.
