My Salvation Game Became true?!. Chapter 100 – Chapter 100: Chapter 100 The Door to the New World is Already Open

Chapter 100: Chapter 100 The Door to the New World is Already Open
 

This Strange Implement, originated from the last item in the sixth Fate Draw.

——High-grade Bizarre Instrument Extraction Scroll.

As a result, he obtained this perfect Strange Implement in the shape of a stele—White Mist Territory.

“White Mist Territory (Purple)”

“Category: Perfect Strange Implement”

“Ability One•White Mist Field: Can generate a white mist that affects visual and auditory senses, can be sustained by filling with Strange Crystal energy.”

“Ability Two•Mist Beast Illusion: Within the area blanketed in white mist, it can generate special mist phantom beasts, the more that are created, the weaker each beast becomes.”

The only flaw of the White Mist Territory was that it needed to be installed and integrated with the surrounding environment.

The main core was the stele in front of them, but besides that, there were some accessories that needed to be buried around the mountain.

Wang Chui was the master responsible for the installation.

Regrettably, it could only be installed and not removed.

Master Chui sighed.

To the side were Black Blade and Pei Hongjing.

They were in a resort, looking from the outside in, the entire resort was shrouded in a light mist, although the mist wasn't thick, you couldn't see clearly into it no matter how you tried.

As soon as one entered deeper into the mountain, they would encounter a scene like the one Luo Rui and others had encountered.

The white mist was dense and made it difficult to move even an inch.

But those inside the resort wouldn't look up to see dense white mist, just a slight haze that did not affect the sprinkling of sunlight.

Even Pei Hongjing, who didn't quite understand such power, marveled at it.

He also spared a second of silence for those who were being tested, “Underneath the shroud of white mist, can these ordinary people really make it to the resort?”

Some talents and bodyguards of his Pei's Corporation, as long as they had been confirmed to be unblemished, could possibly enter the ranks of the Torchbearers and become honored peripheral members.

But they too must pass through the ‘entrance exam' of the White Mist Territory.

At that moment, Wang Chui was staring at the stele as if looking at his lover. Hearing Pei Hongjing's casual question, he replied, “If White Mist Territory is operating normally, forget about ordinary people, even Awakeners would be trapped inside.”

“This is a perfect high-grade Bizarre Instrument! Ah, but you wouldn't understand its worth.”

“All you need to know is that it's adjustable, and Black Blade is the one controlling it.”

Not far away,

Black Blade pressed his hand against the stele in front of him, which was both control and observation.

Indeed, the White Mist Territory also came with remote observation capabilities.

These people had already been through the first round of selection, having passed the selection of the Phantasmal Spirit, but that didn't stop Black Blade from continuing the assessment.

One was to test these peoples' temperament and courage, to see if they could remain calm in the face of crisis.

The other was to observe the abilities of these prospective new members and determine which direction they were suited to develop in… If one had the right temperament but not the courage, Black Blade would also cross off such a person, at least they couldn't stay in the combat department.

…

In the mountains, on the road leading to the resort's gate, Luo Rui stopped in his tracks and stared at a large stone by the roadside lost in thought.

“I have just passed by this stone.”

“But this road… should have no branching paths at all!”

He was certain that he had been walking along the road the whole time; he had observed it earlier when there was no fog, and there was just this one road.

Is this the trial for ascending the mountain?

It is indeed the power of the supernatural!

Even though he was no longer young, nearing his thirties, Luo Rui's blood still boiled with excitement.

But at the next moment, his blood ran cold, ice-cold to the soles of his feet, and he felt as if he had plummeted into an abyss.

Because in front of him, the white mist roared into the shape of a giant beast.

A hideous, ugly, and terrifying giant beast, which gaped its enormous maw at him.

Ah ah ah ah ah… Holy shit!

Luo Rui's brain went completely blank. After a few seconds, he came to his senses, trembling and gritting his teeth as he turned around and ran.

His legs were a little shaky, and his running was unsteady, sometimes even falling to the ground, but he would get up the next second. He couldn't be said to be as slow as a snail, but it was as slow as a turtle.

Strangely, the white mist giant beast never caught up.

Luo Rui didn't realize that, at that moment, he had only one thought in his mind: to run, to keep running. When his legs were almost giving out, he saw the scenery suddenly open up before him; the dense white mist had dissipated without him noticing, and the giant beast behind him had vanished as well.

He had reached the resort.

Around him were several other people as bewildered as he was, all unfamiliar, and none of them seemed to be the ones who had been on the same ride with him before.

The calmest among them was an unremarkable looking guy.

He walked up to say hello and asked the guy about the situation here.

“That question, you're asking the wrong person. I just got here a bit earlier, might even have stayed in the mist longer than you.”

“It's not being calm, just that I have rested for a while and have calmed down a bit, almost scared to death just like everyone else.”

“There were some people who came before and told us to wait here, probably until everyone arrives,” the guy added.

That was what the man, named Gou Ping'an, said.

Luo Rui also found a stool to sit down and rest. Now that he had calmed down, he realized rather quickly that the white mist giant beast was just meant to scare people and posed no real danger. But his performance just then…

It couldn't be said to be anywhere near excellent, but it was also irrelevant, wasn't it?

Thinking about this, Luo Rui started to feel uneasy.

But uneasiness was of no use. He chatted casually with the others. It was strange, looking back the way he'd come, the mist was there but not thick, and he could clearly see the stretch of road.

Every now and then, figures would arrive as if passing through a curtain of water, each of them gasping for air, both shocked and scared. The entrance to the resort was gradually bustling with people.

As more people gathered and some time passed for rest, the fear subsided, and the newcomers began to feel excited and thrilled.

In the crowd, Luo Rui saw the edgy teenager from his ride and other ‘acquaintances.'

By rough count, there were easily a hundred people there. Although he didn't believe he was anything like a one-in-million candidate, a hundred people… was indeed a lot.

Men, women, young girls, old ladies, young men, old men, they were all there.

“What kind of monster was that giant beast? It was way too scary.”

“I thought it was cool. Are we going to have powers like that in the future?”

“The climb is an assessment… But it seems that most people have passed through the mist. Have we passed or not?”

“From today onward, my fate is in my hands, not in the heavens!”

“Finally, I am pushing open the door to a new world, Ula!”

“So what kind of magical powers will we get? φ(>ω

As time went by, fewer and fewer newcomers emerged from the mist, but the atmosphere on site remained fervent as they eagerly discussed the future.

Suddenly, the wind stopped, and although it was still a sunny day, the more than a hundred newcomers felt as if they had fallen into a frozen cave. Their fervent hearts cooled abruptly, as if doused with a bucket of ice-cold water—a formless force enveloped them, gripping their hearts like a lower organism panicking before a higher being, an uncontrollable fear emerging.

It was more intense than the fear they had felt upon encountering the white mist giant beast.

The formless pressure lasted for a few seconds before dissipating, and a straight-backed figure in black, wearing a mask, appeared before them, his gaze sharp as a blade.

Cold words struck their hearts.

“You have merely passed the first round of selection, barely! Many of you performed very poorly in my opinion. If your performance continues to be unsatisfactory in the future, you will only be able to have related memories erased and return to ordinary life.”

“Ordinary may not be a bad thing, as this path is destined to be fraught with thorns. The real gate stands here, so I ask you again, have you thought it through?”
