What was a teenager?
It was a piece of paper with many blanks.
It was empty and needed all sorts of colors, so it was filled with curiosity and was not afraid of exploration.
It was ostentatious and had a lot of space, so it was not afraid of making a mistake because it could be redrawn at the side.
Time was still tolerant, so it was arrogant and domineering.
Stripping away all kinds of personalities and experiences, the true nature of a teenager was always like that.
Tang Ling's' I can 'was like a firework that instantly ignited the warehouse filled with explosives. After his loud answer, everyone, including Amir, shouted in unison, "I can!"
As for what responsibility they could bear? What did they have to prepare for? Their eager hearts did not give it much thought.
Thuja felt like he was looking at himself from many years ago.
Humans were strange. Regardless of the era, a child would always be a child and a teenager would always be a teenager. At most, it would be suppressed but it could never be uprooted.
Was this what a bloodline was? A bloodline passed down from an ancestor!
"Fine, you guys can." Thuja smiled bitterly as if he admitted defeat, but he did not move right away.
Instead, he turned around and kicked open the gate of the reserved camp at the back of the field.
The blazing sun, the forest, the weeds, and the heat.
Thuja walked out casually and signaled the others to follow him.
Orston shouted excitedly. He tore off his uniform and shook it a few times. He shouted, "Brothers, sisters, what are you waiting for? Follow me!"
The others cheered and followed him. It was the hottest summer day, so excitement stimulated their emotions. Even Andy, the most timid of them all, unbuttoned three buttons on his uniform.
The girls rolled up their sleeves and pants.
The originally thin scenery immediately became lively after the cheers of a group of youths.
Thuja pursed his lips, lowered his head, and walked forward in silence. He walked to the edge of the cliff where the New Moon Warriors grabbed the iron chains and climbed up.
Then, he stopped.
The teenagers stood beside him. They were not disappointed at all. Instead, they were eager for something magical to happen.
Would the Safety Sector No. 17 below change? Or would the First Reserved Camp pop out with a bang?
There was nothing but the edge of the cliff in the summer. The heatwave of the wind made everyone's hair flutter.
The boy's bare chest was dripping with sweat, but his eyes were still filled with longing.
The girls didn't care about the hair stuck to their foreheads. They held hands and looked around expectantly.
Thuja had mixed feelings. What was he doing now? Was he influenced by the magical batch of New Moon Warriors who were filled with innocence and innocence?
He would never forget today's scene. Standing at the edge of the cliff, the shadows of the youths who were looking forward to a new page in their lives.
The ancient book once said, "May you leave for half your life and return as a youth."
He was afraid that when he took that step back, he would have already disappeared!
Thuja was overthinking, so he raised his arm and pointed further away.
That spot was across the entire Safety Sector No. 17, the former settlement, and even the edge of the forest of the Secondary Safety Zone. It was also the limit of his vision on the cliff.
"Take a guess, where is that place?" Thuja asked.
"I don't know. My family is strict. I'm only allowed to move around within 2.5 miles of the Secondary Safety Zone, but there are still a lot of powerful people out there." Orston wiped his face. The black sun on his chest was filled with a real life force under the sunlight.
"There." Yu extended his right hand. It felt sturdy even in the wind, but it was as fair as jade. He pointed in a certain direction and said, "My goal was to go there, to the edge of the Secondary Safety Zone. I wanted to see what a dangerous place looks like, but my wish didn't come true. All I know is that when I get close to the edge, mutated beasts will appear. "
Indeed, when they first met Yu, there was a pair of giant claws in his backpack. Did he go on another adventure and slay mutated beasts?
No one knew what Yu's limit was after he used his powers.
"I never dared to step out of the safety sector, but once I passed by the gate of the outer city. The gate was open, so I took a look from afar. I-I really wanted to go out, "Andy said softly, causing Orston to mock him.
Amir lowered his head before he looked up again and said something that was rare, "Maybe you saw me when you took a look. The place where I live is gone. "
His words made Tang Ling take a deep look at Amir. It was the first time Amir mentioned the settlement. Even though he sounded calm, there was a trace of sadness in his voice that was hard to notice.
Tang Ling could not say anything. He was a young man from the outside, a young man with an unclear background that Su Yao brought into the safety sector.
He stared into the distance, burying the sadness in his heart as he said, "I used to think it was hard, but now that I think about it, it's not hard at all. Sometimes, a person can look forward to going to an unknown place tomorrow and reap unexpected rewards.
Even if there's danger, I still think death is a legend and it's far away from me.
That's why I still want to go anywhere. It's true. "
His words were vague, but it clearly hinted that he was once a drifter. It might be his true feelings. When he first stepped out of the settlement and shouldered the burden for his family, the nervousness and anxiety were quickly replaced by the desire for novelty.
He even hoped that he could go further the next time.
It was also the exploration instinct that humans were born with, but it was not mentioned. No matter how far he went, as long as he had the path home in his heart, he would not feel anxious.
However, there was no home anymore.
The others did not know how sad Tang Ling was, but his words resonated with the others.
Orston roared in excitement again. The two girls held each other's hands and chimed in with a smile, "We want to go to many places too. It's best if it's the end of the sky."
Girls tended to be more romantic in their words. Instructor Thuja's unintentional question opened up the young men's hearts for the first time since they were relaxed.
It was supposed to be a beautiful conversation between young men, but Instructor Thuja's mind was not on it.
He finally spoke. It was rare for him to light a cigarette and take a sip of wine from the small flask that he carried with him.
He looked tired and experienced. He was just a normal middle-aged man, but at that moment, he had an unusual temperament.
He was powerful, tired, and had a hidden story that made people want to explore it.
He said, "That place is actually nothing. It's not the faraway place that you want to explore, and it's not the destination of your dreams.
