Inside the yurt, people were coming and going. Martial artists dressed in different styles and holding different weapons could be seen everywhere. Lin Feng took a casual look and counted at least a few thousand people.
Even so, it did not seem too crowded and noisy. Instead, it was orderly.
The yurt was five hectares in size and was mainly divided into four areas, occupying the north, south, east, and west. They were the mission area, the supply area, the treatment area, and the rest area.
In the most central position, there was an irregular circle with a diameter of about three meters. It flickered as if space was twisting, and there was a white reflection of light. From time to time, people would enter and exit the space.
Lin Feng looked at this space gate. He knew that after 21 years, this space gate would be destroyed and countless monsters would surge out.
The martial artists who entered the space gate were mostly the same. Most of them were in small adventure teams of five or seven people.
Most of the team members were in charge of their own duties. They were neatly dressed, full of energy, and fully equipped.
Those who came out of the space gate looked different. They were either carrying monster corpses with joy or dejected, weather-beaten.
Many of them were covered in blood with missing arms and legs. They were crying and screaming in pain. Some could not even open their mouths. They were wrapped in white cloth and carried out by their teammates. This kind of scene was not uncommon.
"Kid, you must have peed your pants."
"Go back and study hard. You're still too inexperienced to enter the Alternate World!"
Many martial artists looked at Lin Feng and mocked him.
Although they were mercilessly mocking and ridiculing him, they were more or less trying to persuade him.
Because it was the first space gate, only martial artists below Rank-2 were allowed to enter to prevent high-level martial artists from robbing the demon spirits of low-level martial artists.
Logically speaking, among the 46 space gates in River City, the first space gate was the least dangerous.
However, those who dared to enter the Alternate World were mostly Rank-1 martial artists above the age of 20. Young people like Lin Feng were extremely rare. Even if they appeared, they were the children of big families or financial groups. They were surrounded by bodyguards and guards.
In their opinion, Lin Feng was overestimating himself. They hoped that the bloody reality would dissuade Lin Feng.
It was just that what the numerous martial artists did not expect was that Lin Feng stood in place without any reaction at all.
What they didn't know was that as a mercenary who had been in the Otherworld for many years, the Otherworld was equivalent to Lin Feng's second home. Lin Feng had seen and experienced even bloodier scenes, so this was no big deal to him.
As for death, if a martial artist was afraid of death, then why would they enter a different world?
Wouldn't it be safer and happier to just find a good job, be a white-collar worker, get married, and have children?
"One Level-3 Alloy Dagger, one Level-3 Alloy Warbow, and twenty Level-3 Alloy Arrows."
Linfeng first went to the supply area and equipped himself with weapons.
A Level 3 Alloy Dagger cost 60,000 SGD, a Level 3 Warbow cost 240,000 SGD, and an arrow cost 20,000 SGD. The total cost was 700,000 SGD.
With a weapon in hand, Lin Feng went to the mission area. On the wall of the mission hall, there was a huge screen with various missions, ranging from a few hundred New Dollars to tens of millions.
Lin Feng skimmed through the list and collected useful information. Then, he started to look for a team.
Most of the martial artists who entered the Otherworld would form an adventure team of five.
Adventure teams were also divided into two types.
The first type was an adventure team formed by dojos, clubs, or university students.
This type of team was generally safer and more cooperative. However, ordinary people couldn't join unless there was a shortage of people and the requirements were very high.
The second type was like Lin Feng, an adventure team formed at the last minute without a fixed team.
This type of team had never worked together before, so they weren't familiar with each other's combat strength and skills. Their teamwork was relatively weak. If they were in danger, it was possible for them to abandon their teammates and escape. As for kill-stealing and conflicts, that was a common occurrence.
"The Violent Adventure Team is recruiting. Currently there are five people, and we need a Rank-1 Warrior. Requirement is rich in combat experience and knows an offensive martial technique. Mission target is a Rank-2 Blast Beast."
"Adventure team under the Raging Blade Dojo. Qualified, generous benefits, and guaranteed safety!
Still missing a Bandit to scout the way. Requirement is to cultivate a Wind Attribute Skill and be fast. Mission target is to find a young Demonic Beast! "
"Recruiting an Archer. Free bow and arrows are provided. Requirement is a Beginner Archer Certificate. Must be fast, accurate, and ruthless!"
Adventure team recruitment was like a job fair.
Professional teams had special seats, special tables and chairs, and special display posters. On the posters were the strength and skills of the team members, as well as their past history and achievements, as well as the conditions of their treatment.
As for amateurs, they didn't have anything. They could only rely on shouting to recruit teammates.
The adventurers at Portal No. 1, apart from one-third of them being middle-aged men, were mostly young people in their twenties. Among them, there were many university students wearing university uniforms.
Lin Feng originally planned to join any adventure team. Although his equipment looked good, it was a pity that no one was interested in him.
Lin Feng didn't want to expose his identity. After thinking about it, he felt that it would be good to be alone.
Although joining an adventure team would guarantee his safety, he would lose his freedom. Moreover, with his experience, he would gain more if he went alone.
"That Archer is alone?"
"The wind is bleak, the water is cold, the warrior will never return."
"What an idiot. There are idiots like him who seek death every day."
Lin Feng slowly walked toward the space door amidst the astonished discussions of the crowd.
In the dizziness, there was a faint earthy smell in the air. The first thing that appeared in front of Lin Feng was a high wall made of mountains.
On the high wall, there were four big red words: "For Humanity."
Under the four words, there were hundreds of thousands of cards densely packed together.
These cards had portraits, names, and ID numbers. They were cards that contained everyone's identity information.
"This is the legendary Card Wall. It's so scary!"
"Yeah, I don't understand why these cards were built here.
When I saw it for the first time, I almost peed my pants. "
"What bad luck. Don't look, don't look."
While many people were discussing, they were cursing.
It was hard to imagine that the first thing one saw in a different world was not a mysterious and novel world, but a wall full of countless white cards.
Under the Card Wall, there were many banknotes and offerings.
When many people saw this scene, a chill suddenly surged from the bottom of their hearts and spread to their whole body. They had goosebumps all over their bodies, their legs went soft, and some were directly in a state of confusion.
There was only one reason for these cards to be left on the wall, and that was that the owner had died in this different world.
No one knew whether it was for commemoration or for some other reason, but their identity cards were forever left on this wall.
"Trash, go back and drink milk."
Many young people who were obviously entering for the first time were directly frightened by the Card Wall and retreated back into the portal, giving up the idea of taking the risk. This made the team leader of the team curse.
When the other teams saw this, they seemed to be used to it. They laughed a few times and walked toward the forest not far away. Lin Feng was no exception. Among the various teams, he carried a battle bow and stood out as he walked alone.
