countries have resorted to nuclear
weaponry Point 30 days neither a short
nor long time merely a month yet people
engraved this event into their very
bones they finally understood what
awaited them in the absence of power the
world had changed when countless
individuals witnessed their loved ones
perish Before Their Eyes they all awaken
to reality as our identity shifted
repeatedly The Immortal players became
mere NPCs with a single life while the
monsters transformed into indestructible
players we now grasp the despair those
NPCs faced when confronted with us for
we have genuinely felt that despair
perhaps all this is retribution a
Penance for the sins we committed in
that world we regret yet do not regret
we lament not recognizing the reality
sooner and strengthening ourselves
resulting in the loss of our loved ones
when disaster struck we do not regret
our past choices since we could dominate
them once we can do so again we two were
once calamities after enduring a lengthy
period of darkness when people first
beheld the light of day again they
comprehended this truth monsters can
only be vanquished by monsters
calamities can only be countered by
calamities either become a Calamity or
be destroyed by one we have no other
choice the skies cleared why long gazed
blankly at the heavens and Wong mingen
could not help but exclaim do you think
finra will return leuan inhaled deeply
to it will undoubtedly return but when
it does we shall be entirely different
at the very least not so powerless the
incident has concluded and the nation
has expedited the enrollment period for
Ling Military Academy it seems change is
indeed imminent let us go the three of
us no the four of us I hope we can
reunite at the Academy Wang mingin
embraced leuan and Yong do you remember
what I said as long as we survive this
time we shall swear Brotherhood by the
way Doan do you want to join Doan shook
her head you go ahead I shall abstain be
why the way the entrance exam for Ling
is at noon today do not misread the time
elong hesitated for a moment quickly
checking the time on his phone it was
already 10:00 oh no let us postpone the
oath until after enrollment the pressing
question now is how do we get there no
taxis No Buses shall we walk it doesn't
te seem too far 40 km not far damn even
driving takes half an hour what now the
four stood in silence beside the ruin
Street just then an off-road vehicle
suddenly sped towards them halting right
in front of the group are you heading to
Ling a man wearing sunglasses leaned out
of the window appearing to be in his 30s
eluan responded quickly yes are you also
going to Ling the man withdrew his head
yes allow me to introduce myself I am a
former special instructor of Ling just
returned from the front lines get in
I'll give you a ride W long and the
others exchanged glances then let us go
off to Ling inasia in a desolate area
far from the capital a former military
base was now teaming with people almost
entirely composed of the Young on a
distant platform three men stood
shoulder toh shoulder the leading man
clad in military attire appeared to be
in his 40s while the two young men
beside him seemed only 25 or 26.1 of
them donning monal remarked I thought

military uniform stood with his hands

the first team if you agree I will
