Chapter 90 The Gate of Destiny
Whether or not to enter the space of destiny is not subjectively mandatory.
Who, how many, and when to enter the space of destiny are all decisions made by the council, and the "Optimal Human Reinforcement Plan" formulated after centuries of experience.
For students studying at the [National Royal Knights Academy], a group of students is required to be selected every two months to enter the Destiny Space.
The five departments of the college have corresponding indicators.
When the time is up, a sufficient list of apprentice knights must be given, otherwise the fixed funds of the departments will be reduced, and even certain rights will be exploited.
Of course, it is not possible to arrange students at will.
The survival rate of apprentice knights and their performance in the space of destiny are also the basic indicators used for evaluation.
There are currently eight teams in front of the gate of the Clock Tower of Destiny.
The minimum number of two people, the maximum number of six people (the number of people in the squad will not affect the difficulty of the fate event, even if the number of people in the squad is 100 people, it will generate a fate world that can accommodate 100 people, and the overall difficulty factor will not change.)
About to face the real horror, the apprentice knights gathered here, even if they know each other, they have no time to say hello.
"This clock tower... is weird."
Just standing outside, Han Dong could already hear the sound of countless tiny gears turning, and even staring at the clock tower for a long time would even feel dizzy.
Bottom of the clock tower.
Bronze door in vertical tubular style.
Zizizi! (steam sound)
With the release of a large amount of steam, copper pillars rose regularly, revealing the red metal passages leading to the bell tower.
A staff member of the clock tower walked out.
Wearing a strange vortex mask, wearing a kind of hard white robe, the neckline is raised over the head.
The robes covered the legs, revealing only the feet in the black crystal boots.
His voice echoed directly in each team's mind.
"Please enter the Bell Tower of Destiny as a unit.
Your belongings will be checked... After the check, my ghost will lead you to different gears, waiting to enter the space of destiny. "
The interior of the clock tower corresponds to a lengthy inspection passage.
It not only checks the carried items, but also confirms the identity to ensure that it is consistent with the student identity reported by the department.
When passing through the red inspection passage, the sound of multiple gears turning from the inside of the wall of the clock tower can be clearly heard.
It can be seen that the mechanical craftsmanship inside the clock tower is complex, and only a few people know the operation of these gears.
The significance of the existence of the clock tower is not only to operate the clock, but also to protect the dawn of hope for human beings - [Gate of Destiny].
The inspection is over.
Cass team came to a square transparent glass room.
Thousands and thousands of spatially overlapping gear structures can be seen all around.
It's as if every room in the clock tower is under the control of these gears.
Han Dong tried his best to suppress the shock in his heart, such a mechanical building did not exist in the world before his death.
Cass explained to Han Dong: "The Bell Tower of Destiny is the perfect crystallization of the highest science and technology in the Holy City, and the safest building in the Holy City... Without the guidance of the [Clock Man], we will be lost in the space of the clock tower, forever Impossible to get out.
When and where each room in the clock tower is located, it is determined by different gears, and subtle changes occur every second.
Even though I've been here twice, it still feels incredible here. "
【Clockmaker】
Obviously referring to the guide in fancy clothes.
It didn't take long.
The glass room where Cass and others were located began to move as the gears turned.
When the room came to a complete stop, one side of the glass room opened a door out of thin air!
Behind the door corresponds to the boundless dark space,
The flames can't spread out here... In the darkness, only the [Gate of Destiny] in the center is visible.
Quoting the original description from the book here:
"It has a golden light edge, an elliptical structure like the starry night sky, like a starry sky gate where multiple dimensions blend inside."
"Is this the real gate of destiny?"
When Han Dong stared at the gate of the starry sky, he had a feeling that he was about to be involved.
Not an illusion, prolonged staring really does cause consciousness to leave the body.
(As for the way for beginners to enter the Destiny Space, it is to connect the Festival Square with the [Gate of Destiny] through some kind of giant magic circle, which can allow thousands of participants to enter at one time, which greatly saves time and facilitates management.
After all, ordinary civilians are neither qualified nor necessary to enter the Bell Tower of Destiny. )
"You are the first team on this month's Destiny Tour, so I wish you all the best of luck."
The clockman makes a polite gesture of invitation.
The four who were already prepared did not hesitate.
Headed by Cass, set foot on the gate of destiny.
At the moment of being involved in it, the fate card with the imprint of the scepter dissociated on its own.
【Option】Enable.
After experiencing a brief conscious tremor, he came to a place with a 'weird' style.
For Cass et al, the style is quirky.
But for Han Dong, this kind of place is all too familiar.
Isn't this the video shop in your original world?
The most popular store in the VCD and DVD era... However, due to the rapid arrival of the Internet era, this kind of store mainly selling CDs immediately declined.
Rapid rise and rapid decline exist only in the memory of some people.
Han Dong did not expect that the place where the fate event was selected in advance would actually be a video store in the style of the 1980s.
Books, DVDs, and game CDs on the shelves are in a state of chaos.
When Han Dong and others want to observe closely, the font and cover will become distorted and blurred.
Only the three items placed at the cashier are normally visible.
Obviously, these three commodities correspond to the fate world of three different frameworks.
a book,
a movie disc,
A game collection gift box.
"Sure enough... they are all based on the literary products of the world before my death as the world frame. If I knew it earlier, I would have spent more time contacting these things."
The familiar fate space prompt sound came:
"Please make your choice within fifteen minutes. Once the time limit is exceeded, a world of destiny will be randomly generated. 』
When the prompt ends.
For the three literary works placed on the cashier counter, a pop-up window filled with basic information popped up one after another, allowing the team to learn more and make choices.
Book: "Goosebumps Series - Tomb Curse"
Movie: "The Clown Returns to the Soul (Table)"
Game: "Obscure"
(If there are PC players among the readers, A Fei strongly recommends this game here... Although the age is a bit old, the plot is absolutely powerful, combining elements of horror, campus, mutation, suspense and decryption.)
