Barrier of Light

The environment in the [Old World] is terrible.

It's full of broken particles.

Perhaps six hundred years ago, before humans arrived at the Five Continents... this place used to be a quiet place, but now, due to the erosion of the "black hole", the world landscape outside the giant wall is only left with "collapsed" vortices.

The clouds on the horizon are constantly sinking.

Here, what you see with the naked eye is not reality.

Because each "black hole" has different extraordinary characteristics, and these characteristics have no rules, and many phenomena are confusing. If you make the wrong mistake, you may lose your life... The main task of the Survey Corps these years is to find out as much as possible. A complete map beyond the giant wall.

The team of twelve people, according to the formation during the drill, "slowly" advanced on the wasteland of the [Old World].

For this mission, sufficient "source energy fuel" was prepared, and a large amount of nutrient solution and compressed food were stored in the source armor.

most of the time.

There is no sound in the master control channel. This is a shared channel specially used for dispatching and commanding.

Quietness is actually a good thing.

It means "nothing happens".

In Gu Shen's ears, there was only the slight crackling sound of the wind and sand hitting the mask. The source armor mask blocked these noises very well. He silently looked at the vast white dust in front of him. The whole [Old World] was like Like a "giant" dying slowly, and what rises with the wind on the earth is the "whimpering" of the giant's pain.

After blocking the mental power.

Gu Shen's sensory experience was amplified several times, dozens of times.

After he set foot on the [Old World], some complicated emotions arose in his heart... The fire swayed slowly in his forehead and heart, and he looked at this broken history calmly and sadly. Humanity recorded its conquest of the five continents in its own history. The mainland has many glories, but there is no record of the embarrassing past of being defeated and fleeing even longer ago.

No one knows what the truth behind history is.

Only by setting foot in the [Old World] can we understand... how much a painful price the human race has paid and what a painful journey of thousands of miles they have gone through before they can reach the safe world within the giant wall.

Compared to the five continents world with distinct colors.

Here, only black and white remain.

Under the extreme hustle and bustle, hidden is the extreme silence.

Because real death is silent and quiet.

This is a lonely "journey". Every explorer of the Survey Corps heading north is a lonely traveler.

"Zizzizi..."

Even outside the master control channel, everyone has their own private channel.

Even spiritual extraordinary people still need to communicate with others to maintain their mental state... During the long fortress mission, what is more terrifying than the danger that may appear at any time is the long period of "silence".

"Hey Hey hey……"

A young voice sounded, and Gu Shen's private channel received a request to join.

He looked forward and saw a young man in the forward formation of the home team not far away, waving back to him, with a sincere smile clearly visible under the transparent mask.

Gu Shen remembered this young man.

Li Chen.

In this mission, Li Chen is a core figure, and his [Episode of Origin] can help the team detect danger immediately.

The most important thing is... [the old world] is "changing".

Extraordinary power has no rules.

Compared with this vast broken land, human beings will always be small creatures. The rules of order summarized in the last second may be completely overturned in the next second... If this is an angry sea, then shoot to The waves of humanity are changing all the time.

The map of the Survey Corps can only theoretically avoid most of the "dangers".

Once a "black hole" is distorted.

Then... you need to find new rules or new routes.

[Episode of the Source] has extremely strong ability to detect black holes.

With him here, the security of the map can be ensured to a great extent.

Gu Shen agreed to Li Chen's request.

"Brother Gu, the second team has a special chat channel. It will be very lonely on the trek, and everyone will communicate in the channel... I see that you haven't entered, so I came here to ask."

Li Chen's voice sounded gentle and contagious.

This is a sunny and cheerful young man. Although his strength has not reached the third level, his abilities are already good enough. None of the extraordinary people who can be "recognized" in Beizhou are ordinary people.

Gu Shen has good eyesight.

He saw Li Chen raise an eyebrow at him and invite: "Want to join?"

Gu Shen smiled and said: "Sorry... I may not be very good at dealing with such a scene."

"It doesn't matter." Li Chen also smiled, "Look back and see the guy at the end of the team."

Gu Shen turned around.

At the rear of the deputy team, there is a calm man who is responsible for the rear.

Suhe.

This position is actually not simple. In addition to finishing, you also need to be responsible for completing the basic tasks of "data collection".

Every time the Survey Corps travels, a large number of "data collection missions" will be carried out. Take this maze mission as an example... The most important thing is to explore the canyon route, but the changes in the "map" along the way, as well as the extraordinary The flow and distribution of source matter are all useful and important information.

These are all materials from the [Old World]!

This time's mission information determines the next arrangement for going out.

That's why...that sentence was regarded as the first iron rule by the Survey Corps.

"Living is more important than anything else."

The completion of data collection, in a sense... is the safety of the next mission trip.

In addition, when encountering a special situation and the captain determines that it cannot be solved, the investigation team will choose to return the same way. The two most dangerous positions in the team are the "charge position" at the front and the "charge position" at the back. "The Queen's Position".

Generally speaking.

The captain will be at the front, while the vice-captain will be in the rear.

Gu Shen looked at the extremely taciturn man and asked with some surprise: "Su He... also joined the chat channel?"

"Of course." Li Chen grinned broadly and said, "Most of the time...he doesn't talk, but whether it's diving or not, everyone will feel more at ease knowing that he is there."

next moment.

He sent an invitation.

Gu Shen chose "agree", and the next moment, the cold and silent world around his ears suddenly became lively and lively.

"Old Mo, I suddenly remembered that you made a bet with me during the last confrontation training... I'm willing to admit defeat. You said you wanted to introduce me to a girl. Where is the girl?"

"I said, you boy, can you have some potential? Don't worry about me all the time. After all, she is an elite member of the second team of our survey corps. She has only been out of the fortress a few times and won a few honors. She is just thinking about the love between her children. I'll wait for you. After receiving the 'First Class Medal' from the legion commander, are you still worried that you won't have any girls?!"

"Bah, a first-class medal. Can a living person get it? You're not going to make a paper man and burn it to me, are you?"

"The paper figurine is too shabby. One day, I will lend you money to buy a silicone one and burn it."

A burst of laughter.

Gu Shen silently raised his head.

The dome in the distant sky is a collapsed vortex, broken particles, flying gravel, and black and white snow flakes.

The chat channel was full of joy, as if they had suddenly arrived at a lively underground tavern. Travelers trekking through the abandoned land had no alcohol in their air masks, but they were very happy.

As long as you are with the right person, you will never be lonely on such a long journey. What is loneliness? Loneliness is a kind of spiritual food that can be chewed. Chew it when you have nothing to do.

Listened silently for a long time.

Gu Shen felt that these guys were more interesting than he thought.

In the [old world] where order has collapsed, a group of rough old men gathered together to chat. It was really an... incredible sight.

"Brother Gu, the words used by these guys may not be very elegant."

A few minutes later, Li Chen's voice sounded on the private channel again.

He had been observing Gu Shen. In his mind, he was a taciturn guy like Su He. He looked polite and polite, and he would most likely not be able to adapt to Beizhou's language customs.

He spoke somewhat cautiously.

If one day, the content in the chat channel is made public, then half of the sentence will be "blocked". Some of the titles and modal particles contained in it are really indecent.

"If this is their normal level, then... they are still educated." Gu Shen said silently in his heart.

Compared with Song Ci...

These guys are considered to be of high quality.

"Old Mo, you are willing to admit defeat and don't abandon me. Wash my underwear for a month. Isn't it too much?"

"Add me, I don't want any girls. Speaking of which, I saved up socks for a month and I'm still in the team..."

Gu Shen listened to the news in the chat channel and suddenly asked: "They have been talking about betting... what is going on?"

Mo Hongyi seemed to have bet with many people and lost all of them.

"ah……"

Li Chen was a little embarrassed, "You asked to participate in daily training that day, and Lao Mo made a bet...betting that you couldn't keep up with our training. You can see the current situation. He lost miserably."

Hearing this, Gu Shen laughed softly.

I see.

If you bet that you can't keep up with training... then you will lose miserably.

Gu Shen has completed all the Survey Corps training these days, and it has been completed very smoothly. For him, sealing off mental power is a kind of "extreme practice". Following the daily training of this elite team can make him better. Perception.

Also make better use of the “flesh”.

The training these days has been quite fruitful.

I just didn't expect that there were many people in the second team supporting me, and it seemed that only Lao Mo lost.

After Gu Shen chuckled softly, the entire chat channel suddenly became quiet.

Only then did he realize... that he was now in the public channel.

Only then did everyone realize that a new person had joined the channel.

"Gu...Gu Shen?"

Mo Hongyi turned around in shock. This young man's sense of existence was really very low. He was almost as "invisible" as Su He. No one mentioned it. Everyone had forgotten that such a number one person existed.

"Xiao Li brought it in."

At this moment, a cold voice sounded.

Su He said softly: "I've been in here for a while..."

There was a brief silence in the chat channel, and then there was a burst of laughter.

Gu Shen looked at the "Private Chat Application" exploding in front of him.

It turns out that the silence and loneliness just now...

all fake.

It’s just because I am not remembered by everyone.

He all agreed, and greetings suddenly sounded in the private channel.

"Brother Gu! I am Zhu Xiao, just call me Lao Xiao!"

"Brother Gu, I am Zhang Ning of the home team. My ancestral home is also Dongzhou, but it's just a remote tundra area. I've heard about what happened in Nagano... You are really awesome!"

Everyone's attention was quickly drawn back by the comments in the public channel.

The taciturn Su He spoke again, "If I remember correctly, if you said Gu Shen could persevere, you would squat down and lick his shoes."
