Ye Luo and other newcomers arrived at the outermost ring of the island, on top of the tall embankment.
It is said to be a dam, but in fact it is also a tidal flat outside, and hundreds or thousands of meters away is the endless ocean.
The dike is like a giant gray snake lying on the earth, watching the rise and fall of the tide.
Why come here for the new couple’s welcome ceremony?
What does it mean to experience the reality of the world personally?
New people are confused.
Ye Luo felt a little uneasy. He moved his steps and whispered, "Senior Nan, what exactly is the form of the welcome ceremony?"
"You'll know later, it will definitely be unforgettable, hahaha."
Gan!
This is even more disturbing.
Ye Luo looked around. For example, in the Baiyun Prefecture newcomer phalanx where he was, there were 41 newcomers, as well as 5 team leaders including Nan Chaolu.
The personnel of other phalanxes were similar and were arranged in various places on the embankment.
This welcome ceremony shouldn't be a friendly contact between the old people and newcomers like them, right? But if it's just a friendly discussion, there's no need to come to the outer ring of the island, right?
He looked towards the distance, the big boss who was responsible for welcoming them in the morning.
Boss Luo.
Under the gaze of pairs of eyes, Luo Jianxing coughed and nodded slightly.
At this time, he was surrounded by not only a dozen staff members from the Newcomer Recruitment Office, but also a dozen other instructors from the training department.
There are no weak instructors.
In addition to observing the performance of the newcomers, their coming here is also related to the 'welcome ceremony' that will be held later.
It was a very special welcome ceremony, so we had to call in enough helpers.
This is the first time such a welcome ceremony has been held, and it can only be held at this Pacific training base.
"Then let's get started."
Luo Jianxing looked at the newlyweds, whose faces were still young, and spoke, his voice loud and clear reaching everyone's ears.
"The path of the Awakened is a difficult one full of thorns. The Awakened are not only people with powerful power, but they are also frontline warriors fighting against disasters, especially us Xinhuo people."
"So today, the theme of the welcome ceremony is to let you understand what a Fire Warrior is and what kind of disaster we need to fight against as a Fire Warrior!"
"Understand what is, the reality that lies deep beneath the world!"
reality!
In this new era, the awakened and the evil represent reality to the public.
Ordinary people have a relatively clear understanding of awakened people, which is due to propaganda on television, reporters’ interviews with some awakened people, information disclosed by the Bureau of Investigation, etc.
There are even awakened people who debuted as anchors and gained countless fans in a short period of time.
Nowadays, more and more videos or pictures related to awakened people can be seen on the Internet.
But in comparison, people have very little knowledge of evil.
All I know is that it is a kind of monster, very dangerous, invisible, and often found in remote and inaccessible places.
Other than that, nothing more.
Ye Luo has never seen Guixie. He is ignorant and understands the natural awakening.
After the investigation bureau revealed the truth, I also had the idea of trying something weird - it's not difficult, just go out into the wild.
Such an idea was shattered by him the moment it came up.
It is impossible to seek death, but it is impossible not to be curious about Weixie, especially with the continuous training and increasing strength, Ye Luo's heart is getting more and more ready to move.
"In other words, we can see the evil with our own eyes during the welcome ceremony? It's really exciting to think about it."
"I don't know if I have a chance to fight against Youxie."
Many people have the same expectations as him.
But there are also people who are nervous and worried.
In peaceful times, who is not afraid of monsters? Many people have never even killed a chicken, not to mention that the monsters are ferocious and terrifying.
There are also people who don't care at all.
"It's just weird? I've killed countless of them, young master."
A young man crossed his arms and looked around at the expectant or nervous newlyweds, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
His calm, confident, and smiling look was in sharp contrast to the people around him.
Especially the cold aura that diffused around him made people around him afraid to get close.
He doesn't need it either.
Only the weak need to gather in groups, while the strong always walk alone.
His name is Ma Nian, and he is an evil hunter. Although he has only been registered as a hunter for a relatively short period of time, he has already completed more than ten missions to eliminate evil spirits. He is a hot new star in his city. There are even rich people who want to hire him with huge sums of money.
Act as a bodyguard.
They were all rejected in the Year of the Horse.
He has only one goal, to keep getting stronger!
So, when the mysterious organization sent an invitation, which vaguely coincided with the legend he overheard, Ma Nian accepted it without hesitation.
Far from home, I came here.
He never regarded himself as a newcomer. He wanted to challenge the strong ones in the organization, become stronger step by step, and surpass each one.
The Year of the Horse still has some emotional intelligence. Although he had no interest in this welcome ceremony and found it boring, he still waited patiently for only half a day.
And at this time,
Luo Jianxing and more than 20 people had already stepped off the embankment and walked to the tidal flat one to two hundred meters away.
He took out a special incense, a scarlet red one with a strange and ominous incense, placed the incense burner on the ground, and took out a lighter to light the strange incense.
Suddenly,
There is a faint and unique fragrance wafting out, but it is very light and difficult to smell without paying close attention.
"This strange fragrance is really scary, it can actually attract evil spirits."
"The world is so big that there are all kinds of materials. Since there is a bright light tree that can drive away evil spirits, it is not surprising that there are special materials that can attract evil spirits. Now, this kind of strange fragrance will come in handy.
"
"And if it weren't for the special environment here, the strange fragrance wouldn't have much effect."
"Yes, I will definitely kill you later."
"There are not many opportunities to level up with pay, so I am extremely excited."
After the incense burned for a while, Luo Jianxing picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "It's almost time. Let's follow the rehearsal pattern."
Tick tock, tick tock, time passes.
The atmosphere on the embankment gradually became solemn, and fewer people spoke in low voices.
In the eyes of Ye Luo and other newcomers, something seemed to appear on the beach in the distance, but it also seemed not to exist.
I didn't see anything, but there seemed to be unusual ripples on the sea just now?
He wasn't sure, it was too far away after all.
suddenly,
A burst of white mist shrouded down, like pieces of white gauze that were constantly billowing. For a moment, as if they were touching some invisible monster, groups of gray and black shadows appeared in front of the newlyweds.
Luo Jianxing ordered, "Light the torch."
In front, the staff at the reception desk who were waiting for instructions heard this and lit the torches in their hands one after another.
Part of the fuel for this kind of torch comes from the Mingguang tree, but it is quite different from the Mingguang torch. Master Wang Chui named it the 'visible torch'.
Orange-red fireworks lit up.
Circles of light that were not eye-catching in broad daylight spread out.
Suddenly, the group of gray and black shadows gradually became clear.
A webbed monster that looks like a walking zombie.
The black hair all over the body is ferocious and terrifying.
A rickety, ugly, indescribable monster.
One after another appeared, and in an instant, the newcomers felt their scalps numb, and a chill rushed straight to the sky.
How could there be such an ugly and ferocious monster in the world!
It was difficult for them to describe it in words. They just felt that they would have nightmares tonight and might not be able to eat at night.
Is this weird? It’s too scary!
Some timid ones have covered their eyes or turned away.
Ye Luo instinctively moved his eyes away, then moved them back in an instant. He forced himself to open his eyes wide and stare at them.
You can retreat now, but will you be able to in the future?
From now on, I will never be so stable and able to look directly at the strange environment!
Luo Jianxing said, "This is the enemy you will face in the future. Are you afraid? If you are eliminated and deported during training, you don't have to face this in the future. If you can't stand it, you should quit early."
Don’t waste your organization’s resources.”
he taunted.
Those few who covered their eyes or looked away also gritted their teeth and faced it head on.
Ha, it seems that the new people are doing well and can still be saved.
On the beach in the distance, those gray-black monsters were rushing towards them with staggering steps, seemingly slow but really fast.
"This is the evil. Under normal circumstances, it cannot be seen by the naked eye. At this time, special techniques are used to make the evil appear. But even so, the evil cannot be touched or hurt by the mortal body."
"You can't touch Weixie, but you can be attacked by Weixie. Once you are caught and bitten by Weixie's claws and teeth, you will either die or be seriously injured. This is the dangerous characteristic of Weixie!"
"In addition, different evil spirits have different characteristics and different fighting methods."
Luo Jianxing pointed into the distance, and the laser pointer in his hand emitted a special light, which fell on one of the rickety evil bodies.
Suddenly, the evil figure became more ferocious, bared its teeth, and a burst of green smoke emitted from the area illuminated by the special light. Under the action of the white mist, torch and green light, the terrifying evil figure became increasingly clear.
"This is an evil knocker. He likes to knock on doors and bump into walls. He can arouse fear in people's hearts and make their hearts resonate."
As the rickety figure approached, the hearts of the newlyweds who were close to each other seemed to be grabbed, and they began to beat loudly.
Fear surged into my heart uncontrollably.
If the big bosses of the organization weren't right in front, some of them might have turned around and fled.
This is the instinctive fear of life!
Even Ma Nian, who was born as a weird and evil hunter, was feeling overwhelmed at this moment. He had indeed killed weird and evil before, but this was the first time he had seen the whole picture of weird and evil so clearly. He just felt sick. How could there be such filth in the world?
things.
He stared intently, trying to memorize the evil appearance.
If you miss the opportunity to clearly see the evil, you don’t know when the next time will be.
The welcome ceremony is quite interesting.
The Year of the Horse retracted his previous boring comments.
The evil spirit was approaching, and it rushed towards the strange incense burning on the beach. The old man Xinhuo stepped forward, preparing to stop it.
A pair of eyes stared closely at each other.
The newcomers are looking forward to it. Will they finally see the Awakened fight against the evil monster?
The same goes for Ma Nian. He wants to see what level the awakened people in the organization are.
At this time,
Luo Jianxing looked into the distance with a smile on his face.
"Now, the welcome ceremony officially begins. Open your eyes and see the reality that is coming!"
What's the meaning?
Ma Nian, Ye Luo and others were stunned.
The ground suddenly trembled, and the fine stones on the embankment shook violently.
In the distance, the ebb and flow of the sea seemed to be boiling, and groups of gray and black shadows emerged from the sea and walked toward the dike step by step.
Dozens!
Hundreds!
More than a thousand!
One after another, terrifying monsters emerged from the sea, revealing their clear features under the illumination of the manifesting torch.
That ferocious head, that wriggling tentacles, that bloody mouth that keeps opening and closing.
