Chapter 1 - First Trainees
[Seventeen kilometers away from Central 6 in the Land of the East; Headquarters]
Although it is a long way from the real Far East, the hot midday sun is still scorching, mercilessly whipping the dry and hard earth and the humans who move outside, the basin without a trace of wind blowing seems to have become a steamer, the air can be seen with the naked eye becoming twisted and strange in the boiling heat, and the steaming dust is still in the air because there is no wind, and the lungs can be horribly wounded by just one breath.
In this harsh environment, a group of children about thirteen or fourteen years old had just finished running around the vast training ground, a distance of 3,000 meters without weights, or lying or sitting on the dusty ground, wheezing rapidly and violently, and from time to time bursting out violent coughs that seemed painful because of inhaling dust. In this vast training ground, the bodies of several children lay in the dust, as a silent warning
This was a screening, because the children who were sick or left behind were simply twisted off their necks by the black-robed man who was supervising on the side, and the corpses were randomly abandoned on the training ground, decomposing in the sun. The organization is not a shelter, it does not need the weak, and it does not give others a second chance, and the only outcome of being a weak person is to be eliminated, and being eliminated means death.
Standing in the shadows in the corner of the training ground, the handsome black boy took off and wrung out the sweat from his coarse linen shirt and laid it on the sun-soaked slate, which, if he was lucky, would be dry again before the next training began, and the five healed reddish scars crawled on his lean body like five bloodthirsty centipedes, slowly wriggling like living creatures with his movements
The boy known as Yanolo opened his eyes, and his pupils were the purest dark hue, as if he could annihilate a qiē light in them. His eyebrows are slender and powerful, and when he locks his brow, it looks like two sharp blades together, and when he smiles, the corners of his mouth are grinned, and a narrow shadow like a blade scar spins on one side of his cheek, adding to his mystery.
Anolo's eyes flickered as he stared at the trainees who were scattered around the training ground. The whole training ground is rectangular, and the terrain rises sharply at the position of the four vertices, forming an angle with some height difference, and the noon sun is just blocked by the angle, so it constitutes four band-like shadows, which is the coolest place in the entire training ground at noon, and it is inevitable that all trainees are eager for these four pieces of feng shui treasure land
When a fierce scuffle ensued, only four of the nearly 100 trainees grabbed the four shadows. Isli, Yanolo, Ricarrudo, Duff.
In this scuffle, 11 trainees died, 9 were seriously injured, and countless were slightly injured.
Six of the eleven who died were killed by Yanolo, and several of his seriously injured did not survive the rest of the training program, although he was besieged by three people and broke his left arm, he did not fall behind in the training program and died, but persevered until his arm recovered
In the morning, almost all the trainees were physically exhausted, and in the afternoon, they were faced with a humanoid target and slashed with a wooden sword a thousand times in a row, and the two meals in a day were only hard rye bread and boiled greens, which were completely unsatisfying for the trainees in the long-body grade, and most of them were half-starved all day
Meals are free time, if you have enough experience in the wild to make a living, you can naturally try your luck in the forest around [Organization], if you can catch a hare or pheasant, it is considered to be meat, but the black-robed supervisor has never warned that this forest is inhabited by large predators such as tigers and leopards, and it is not until one day that the torn bodies of two trainees who went to open meat and disappeared are found from the forest, and the trainees understand the danger of going deep into the forest.
Intense workouts and short rest periods push trainees to their full potential, and a full load of training can accumulate a large number of dark injuries that can become life-threatening over time. However, these conditions are not a problem in the eyes of the Order, and according to them, when a special transformation is completed, all of these dark wounds will be healed.
Even so, the mortality rate of trainees in the organization was alarmingly high, and over the course of months of training, a large number of trainees died of disease, heat, starvation, and even death in battles between trainees. But Yanolo is now, the number of trainees will never fall below the limit of forty-seven, once the remaining trainees are less than forty-seven, the [organization] will continue to send more people, they seem to have a steady stream of trainees, constantly filling the blood basin that devours the lives of the trainees, and the dead trainees will mysteriously disappear after a day, and their bodies will never be found
【Cave No. 7】
"Anolo, I'm still reading. A handsome young man with a silver-white shoulder-length head walked slowly into the cave, but only took a few steps before he stopped, as if there was an invisible barrier in front of him to stop his progress. It is not for nothing that the silver boy suddenly stopped, because if he takes a step further, he will enter the vigilance and attack range of the black boy hidden in the shadows, as long as Yanolo himself does not allow it, any human who enters this range will be regarded as hostile and subconsciously counterattack, several trainees have already experienced this blood lesson, and the silver boy does not want to try it himself.
"It's Isli, what's the matter with me?" the black boy folded up one of the pages of a thick book of "Human Structure", then closed it and put it on the table beside him, he stood up and stretched out his arms, his hands and five fingers folded together and slowly clenched into fists, and when Anoro made this movement, his wrists, elbows, and knees all burst into a slight popping sound in an instant, and his body, which had been stiffened by holding one position for a long time, gradually recovered. At the same time, the invisible barrier of vigilance also vanished
"[The organization] came to inform us that they wanted us to line up for a physical transformation that would begin immediately," Isli said, "They said that this is an opportunity for us to become stronger in the true sense of the word, and as long as we get through this hurdle, we can immediately become one of the strongest, and this time their conditions are extremely relaxed, and they can even give us the freedom to choose whether to do the transformation or not." ”
"Survive?" Janolo chuckled, the corners of his mouth hooked up to make his delicate countenance even more sinister: "It's not that simple, the [Order] side has always liked to say difficult things very simply, if even they say that we need to 'force through' this time, then it seems that the risk is indeed not small." ”
"Yes, but if we don't try, won't our months of hard work be in vain, and in the end we will get nothing," Isli smiled freely, showing a strong spirit that put life and death on the line.
"My path has just begun, how can it end now?" Janolo also made his choice clear, "I've always wanted to know what this miraculous transformation of the [Order] is"
