Chapter 110

As expected, Amir shouted, “I came from the settlement . All I want to say is if I can work here and get a full meal every day without having to worry about my life, I’m more than willing to . ”

After that, he seemed to have noticed that he crossed the line, so he stepped back nervously and lowered his head in embarrassment . He looked afraid .

After a full month of training in the sealed camp, Amir’s background was not a secret anymore, and he even mentioned it once before .

“You are safe here . ” Tang Ling let go of Amir and helped Andy up .

As a matter of fact, Amir’s thoughts were exactly Tang Ling’s . At least, for the people of the settlement, there was nothing better than a full stomach and safety .

There was no need to endure the harsh cold and heat, or to hustle around, or to think about what they should do in exchange for food . They could simply work at the farm and get their stomachs filled every day, and there was the protection of the warriors or even the Purple Moon Warriors .

Would it not be good enough?

Andy came from the outer city, so it was impossible for him to understand the bitterness .

“Yes, Andy, it’s safe . Safety Sector No . 17 will protect the Hope Barrier at all costs . There are Purple Moon Warriors here as well . What else is safer than working in the Hope Barrier?” Vian also comforted Andy despite feeling uneasy because she was also from the outer city .

However, the girl was much more matured than the boy, so she was able to figure out the problem and did not panic .

“I-I am sorry, Amir,” Andy apologized softly .

“Ah? Umm . Mm-hmm . ” Amir did not expect Andy to apologize, so he accepted it in embarrassment .

“Come here, Amir . No one is blaming you . We understand . ” Tang Ling always had a special affection for Amir, not in a weird way, but because he was also from the settlement . He comforted Amir even though the boy seemed to reject almost everyone .

Orston, however, grabbed Amir back to the line .

The little commotion was over when everyone stood straight . Yang Kong then dully added, “If anyone tries to disturb my class in the future, I won’t be so courteous anymore . Since this is the first time and the first class, I’ll make an exception . ”

Everyone dared not speak . They could tell that Yang Kong was dead serious .

At the very next moment, Yang Kong scoffed . “Do you think everyone is able to work on the farms? Only the most trusted citizens of the sector have the qualifications to work here . Andy, your parents might not be there either . There are still many places in the sector that requires labor work, including the construction area of the underground factory . ”

What about the nobles of the safety sectors? Tang Ling really wanted to ask but did not because it was a sensitive question . Paying attention to the lecture was a better option .

“Where is the First Reserved camp?” Yu spoke, which was rare, but it was also to bring the topic back on track .

The young warriors had forged bonds throughout the training period . Regardless of the way, they would still express each other’s thoughts .

Although it was a little conservative, Yu’s question successfully brought Yang Kong’s attention back to the class .

“Haven’t you noticed? Take a careful look at where the other end of the main war passage leads to . ” Yang Kong reminded all of them that the other end of the main war passage led into the Cliff of Hope .

Previously, due to the lack of authority, the place was filled with white light, so they did not notice that there was a big cave at the cliff .

It was a man-made cave!

The answer to the question was obvious enough . The First Reserved Camp was hidden inside the cave .

“As a matter of fact, other than the Purple Moon Warriors, all the warrior camps are stationed inside the Cliff of Hope . When they aren’t on duty at the Patrol Ground, they will be inside the cave . It’s not without any benefits either . Since it’s very close to the Universal Source Rock, the cave isn’t normal either . After all, the mortality rate in this place is so high, so how could there be no rewards for the warriors?”

Yang Kong’s direct words piqued the young warriors’ interest . What would the reward be? If it was related to the Universal Source Rock, the thought of it alone would be thrilling enough .

However, Yang Kong did not want to explain the little topic, so he simply said, “Since the rock can make the seeds of the old civilization grow despite not being able to adapt to the environment, then you can surely imagine that there’s a certain method to train the warriors within the proximity and grant them with tremendous power-ups . You can also consider it as one of the secrets of Safety Sector No . 17 . ”

“But how can a place have secrets and no cost? In this era, you have to pay for everything . Do you think the battles here are the cost we pay? Wouldn’t it be a little too small?” Yang Kong’s cold expression showed a trace of anger .

The cost is still too small? The young warriors were numbed by the revelation . Were there even more terrifying truths inside the cliff?

Yang Kong inhaled deeply and spun around to the battlefield . “Turn around . After the authority is granted, all of you should be able to see something even more secretive . This thing is hidden on the battlefield, but all of you must remember with your heart that it is as important as the Universal Source Rock . Unfortunately, it is also something very disgusting . ”

The moment Yang Kong’s words subsided, the young warriors eagerly looked towards the battlefield . They wanted to know what Yang Kong was talking about . What was the thing that he deemed disgusting?

However, when everyone paid closer attention to the battlefield and saw what Yang Kong mentioned, spine-chilling fear rose in everyone’s heart instantly .

A crevice, a giant crevice! On the other side of the Universal Source Rock, less than 20 meters away and directly opposite the Watchtower, there was a giant crevice in the ground .

It extended forward for almost 10 km and the widest gap was over a hundred meters . Even the narrowest fissure was 10 meters long . It lay bare on the ruins and revealed the abysmal underground .

It’s just a crevice . What’s so terrifying about it? Tang Ling suppressed the rising fear in him with his best effort and stepped forward . He wanted to have a better look at what was inside the giant crevice, but even after he reached the edge of the roof of the Watchtower, he still could not get a glimpse of the bottom .

What he saw was endless darkness .

He tried to calculate it with his Precise Instinct but failed! It magically failed! He could not even calculate the depth that his eyes could reach .

The only feeling that he got from the crevice was a heavy malicious intent .

Why would he feel such wicked intent from the crevice? A drop of sweat rolled down Tang Ling’s temple . He could not explain why a crevice would give him such feelings .

Yang Kong’s words also entered his ears at the same time . “We didn’t do anything or put any cover on the crevice . It has its own cover . ”
