Tang Ling turned around abruptly.
What? The crack's own disguise? It's not a living being. It's just a crack. It's already unbelievable that I can sense its malicious intent, yet Instructor Yang Kong said it knows how to disguise itself?
Does this mean that it's alive?
"Instructor? Is the crack alive? "Christina and Tang Ling shared the same thought.
"It's its own disguise. Why can we see it after our clearance is raised?" Yu was thinking about another question.
"We're monitoring the whole battlefield, but we can't see it because of its disguise. What if we fall into the crack?" Vian asked.
"If we can't see it, why can't the monsters (zombies and all kinds of wild beasts) see it?" Orston could not understand the logic behind it.
Everyone was even more curious about this crack than the Universal Source Rock.
No one was willing to admit that they felt chills down their spines when they saw the crack. Why would they admit it? Were they young and hot-blooded? Should they admit that they were afraid of a crack?
Yang Kong remained quiet in the face of so many questions.
The New Moon Warriors did not have the clearance to know that much. All they needed to know was that there was a crack in the area and they had to be cautious, watch it, and never get close to it.
Therefore, Yang Kong did not answer all the questions that were thrown at him.
He simply explained that the authority of the badge was provided by the artificial intelligence system that was connected to the Sector Protection Machine.
The Sector Protection Machine could see through the disguise of the crack, so those with the authority badge could see through it too.
As for whether the monsters could see through the crack or not, Yang Kong had no idea. However, based on the information gathered from the battlefield, many monsters purposely avoided the crack, albeit not all of them.
It might also be their instinct.
In short, the battlefield was huge. A crack that spanned 10 km might be long, but its width was limited.
On top of that, it was not a straight line. If one did not see through its disguise, even if one looked down from the sky, one would not be able to notice its existence.
After all, not every corner of the battlefield was occupied with killing, so there would always be empty spots.
That was all Yang Kong was willing to reveal about the crack. In the end, he said in a serious tone, "From the moment you guys enter the First Reserved Camp, you're not only facing learning and improving. You're also warriors, so you have to carry out missions.
"If there's no special mission, you'll be on duty at the Patrol Ground at the top of the Hope Barrier. You only need to remember that the most important task for you on duty is to monitor the crack. "
Up until this point, Yang Kong was ready to change the topic.
However, whenever Tang Ling recalled the malicious intent, he could not suppress the doubts in his heart. "Instructor, I mean, if the monsters and the warriors accidentally fall into the crack, what will happen to them?"
"I hope that as a warrior, you won't make such a stupid mistake." Yang Kong's face was filled with disgust and resentment, but there was a tinge of deeply hidden fear.
He did not answer Tang Ling's question directly. Instead, he indirectly gave Tang Ling an answer — it was impossible to get out after falling in.
It also hinted that not being able to get out had nothing to do with the depth of the crevice, nor did it have anything to do with the climbing ability of humans or monsters.
Tang Ling went silent.
He could not help but glance at the giant crack again. This time, he did not even need his Precise Instinct to sense the malicious intent.
If one were to stare at it, that overwhelming malice would engulf them.
It reminded him of a saying from the old civilization. 'When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back at you.'
It might not be suitable, but it was fitting for the occasion.
"That's all for today's lesson. The biggest secret of Safety Sector No. 17, the Hope Barrier, has revealed most of its truth to all of you.
"Remember this: the more you know, the more burdens you'll have to bear. Your lives are tied to the lives of more people behind the Cliff of Hope, so please imprint this into your hearts and souls.
"Lastly, you must remember that the badges on your chests represent your glory, your authority, and your identity. Peers in the Hope Barrier only recognize the badge, not the person. This place is very important, and no accidents are allowed to happen.
"Do you remember that?" Yang Kong asked loudly.
"Yes." The few young warriors looked serious as they instinctively touched the badge on their chests.
"Very well. There are many rules about the First Reserved Camp and some basic knowledge, so the sector doesn't think it's necessary to start a special class on them. When you get back to the camp, look for the camp commander. He'll bring you to the special information room of the First Reserved Camp. You can find out everything with the badge, "Yang Kong told the new warriors.
It was a cruel place after all.
If they had to explain the rules, get used to the rules, and understand some basic knowledge, it would take a lot of time, so it was unrealistic.
After a month of closed-door training, they had acquired the basic qualities of a warrior.
"Alright, that's all for today. Now, all of you can go into the cave in the Cliff of Hope. Someone will bring you to the camp. "Yang Kong seemed a little tired.
"Yes, sir," answered Tang Ling and the others. Without any hesitation, they lined up and walked into the cave.
"Wait, I forgot to tell you.
In the First Reserved Camp, whether it's the camp commander or the officers, they are all your seniors. They're all your seniors. Get used to it, little fellows. "
**
It was a midsummer night, and the sky was filled with stars.
The Milky Way was like a flickering band of light, shuttling across the dark blue curtain of the night. It left its luster behind, but at the same time, there was a sense of loneliness.
Maybe the Milky Way was eager to cross paths with other bands of light?
In this era, the Purple Moon was not without its merits. The favorable environment brought prosperity to the night sky, but it also made the Purple Moon look a little gloomy.
Just like the flickering cigarette butt beside Tang Ling's mouth, it was nothing compared to the vast night sky.
'So, the Purple Moon is nothing compared to the universe?' Tang Ling thought without a hint of malicious intent. He conveniently glanced at the infrared telescope in front of him.
Through the telescope, the malicious-looking crevice was still quiet.
As a matter of fact, it had been 20 days since Tang Ling arrived at the First Reserved Camp, and it had been quiet all this while.
Tang Ling was always curious about everything, so he hoped that it would move a little.
"Tang Ling, smoking is not good. I heard that in the old civilization, those who smoke at 15 are considered bad teenagers. " Andy walked over with a composite war bow that was even longer than his back. He could not help but frown when he saw Tang Ling smoking.
"Besides, smoking too early isn't good for us to improve our bodies."
