Boom! Squeak! Squeak! The sound of the iron cage rising startled the few young warriors. Vian could not help but cry out loud.
Words could not describe the psychological pressure of being in this place. Even the slightest movement would send chills down one's spine.
"Turn around and go back." Yang Kong did not waste any time. Every minute in class was precious. It was not used to comfort or explain.
Go back? Is that the battlefield? Tang Ling turned around quietly, but his back was drenched in cold sweat.
The feeling of facing the horror was much more thrilling than actually witnessing it.
Not being afraid of death did not mean that he had lost his instinct to be afraid.
However, there was still nothing. Other than the 50-meter wide path beneath his feet, the whole place was shrouded in white light.
At the end of the short path was a cylindrical building that blocked everyone's sight.
"Follow me." Yang Kong walked in front of the young warriors and headed towards the cylindrical building.
The few young warriors followed Yang Kong anxiously. After walking for around 200 meters, they saw a bridge in the white light that shrouded everything.
"We're now on the top platform of the main body of the Hope Barrier. What you've just walked through is the main battle passage. When a war breaks out, all the squads will enter the battlefield through this passage.
Now, this bridge is the battle bridge. "Yang Kong's words were unusually simple.
The young warriors were trembling in fear. After walking through the main battle passage and reaching the battle bridge, would there be a battle?
Would they kill each other?
Outside the white light, the noises on the battlefield became more realistic and terrifying. Tang Ling's clenched fists were drenched in cold sweat.
"Hmph." Yang Kong chuckled and continued forward as if he did not feel anything.
All the young warriors could do was hold back their guesses and nervousness as they followed.
On both sides of the 50-meter long, 30-meter wide battle bridge, there were already warriors on duty. The more pressuring thing was that there were firearms from the old civilization deployed around the bridge — mortars.
The warriors on duty did not move. They stared at the vast white light with a solemn expression as if they could see through the white light.
The mortars were not fired either. The silence was frightening.
Anyone who had a slight understanding of the firearms from the old civilization would be frightened, would they not? Tang Ling still remembered the Desert Eagle. Because of it, he was especially concerned about the firearms of the old civilization when he was reading in the library.
From the nuclear bomb that had the power to destroy the world, to the fifth generation fighter jet that had supersonic, anti-radar 'stealth' function, from the moving battle fortress aircraft carrier to the deep-sea killer nuclear submarine …
He did not want to think about it at the moment. Where did all the amazing weapons go? How was it compared to the Level 2 Sector Protection Machine that Yang Kong introduced?
All he cared about were the mortars. Did the Hope Barrier have mortars from the old civilization?! There were a total of 20 mortars on the 50-meter-long combat bridge?!
Even if it was not a nuclear bomb or a rocket launcher, its power was definitely not on the same level as the Desert Eagle.
Even if it was just a Desert Eagle, if he had enough bullets … Tang Ling was still immersed in the feeling, but the more he immersed in the power of the weapons of the old civilization, the more he believed that the battlefield would topple his imagination!
With such a feeling lingering in his heart, he reached the end of the 50-meter-long combat bridge.
In front of him was that cylindrical building. Under the vast expanse of white light, it was only ten meters above the combat corridor bridge. Apart from the eight-meter-tall metal gate in front of him, the rest of the building was constructed with a material similar to glass, yet also like metal.
Yang Kong finally stopped and turned around to the newly promoted New Moon Warriors.
"The Watchtower is the frontmost sentry tower of the Hope Barrier, but it's also the most important place. It's a place for surveillance and also the battle command center. It's also one of the permanent camps of the Purple Moon Warriors. "
Yang Kong then removed the badge from his chest. It was a badge that was completely different from the Purple Moon Warriors'.
It was pale gold with a few stars on it. It was an abstract depiction of the universe.
He placed the badge in his palm and a trace of mockery flashed over his eyes. "Are you guys afraid?"
Was it not a question? Christina grabbed Vian's hand tightly. Yang Kong's prank would only increase the tension in her heart.
"It's fine. Being afraid will become a habit. You'll get numb after being afraid for a while." As he spoke, Yang Kong stuck the badge on the metal gate.
Kachak! The metal gate slowly and heavily opened.
The moment the gate opened, the irritating white light that blocked everything vanished.
A giant screen appeared in front of Yang Kong and pierced through all the walls in sight.
Whether it was the main screen or the smaller screens that were split into countless smaller screens, all of them were facing the same area.
Ruins! The screen seemed to show an endless stretch of ruins.
Collapsed buildings, collapsed roads, abandoned rusty metal structures, and strange plants that grew recklessly …
This was the world behind the Watchtower.
"Kill!" A group of a hundred people wearing strange armguards rushed forward, and a group of wolves that were entrenched on the half-collapsed building also rushed over.
The leading wolf was at least 20 meters long. Its head had evolved into an exoskeleton that looked like a helmet, and its waist and abdomen were covered with strange black scales. It rushed to the front at an astonishing speed, leading the pack of wolves and instantly colliding with the human warriors that formed a group of a hundred.
Blood instantly dyed the giant screen red.
On the other side, a group of 10 elite warriors was facing a group of densely packed zombies.
In the middle of the group of zombies was a huge, strange-looking humanoid creature. It was 7 meters tall and had a waist of more than 3 meters. Its eyes were also grayish-white but it had a sense of clarity with a sense of cruelty.
The scarier thing was that it seemed to have broken free from the rule that zombies would rot. Its broken body had a lot of scabs that were formed after the wounds had healed, and there were even new flesh sprouting on some parts of its body.
It roared, its cold eyes already staring at the elite team of 10 people.
It shook its head as if it was giving orders. Beside it, groups of zombies dashed towards the elite squad of 10 fearless zombies.
The leader of the elite group drew his sword and behind him, two of his teammates set up heavy machine guns.
'Is this the battlefield?' The young warriors stiffened their bodies, lacking the courage to even step through the gate.
The giant screen reflected the whole battlefield in front of them. There were only two spots on the screen, but it was enough to make one feel like they had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Come on in." Yang Kong was nonchalant as he strode towards the giant screen opposite the entrance.
Without a doubt, the scenes on the giant screen were the scenes of the whole battlefield.
The two spots that Yang Kong saw at the start, be it the battle against the wolves or the zombies, they were just a miniature version of the battlefield.
