《fall into darkness》Silvia Wall
Advertisement
The stalwart figure on the desk didn't look up, just hummed softly. The half-kneeling black shadow on the ground saw the message and respectfully clenched his fists to cover his chest, and disappeared as silently as the Tathagata, leaving only a snow-white letter on the desk.
After finishing the work in his hand, the stalwart figure's eyes fell on the snow-white letter paper, his thick blade-like eyebrows were slightly raised, he took it apart and glanced briefly, and he really reached the passing line. His eyes condensed and fell on the detection value at the bottom corner.
"0.8?" The stalwart figure stared at the number, watched it for a while, put away the letter, got up, put on the coat on the coat rack at the door, and pushed open the door.
In the hall, the slightly fat middle-aged butler looked at the master and said in surprise, "Master, it's so late, are you going out?"
"Well." The stalwart figure instructed: "Prepare the car."
...
...
"Three hundred years ago, natural disasters came to the world. Our ancestors fought hard, relying on infinite wisdom and strength to survive in adversity, and built this huge Sylvia wall to isolate the disaster from the wall. The descendants of the Sanctuary! The giant wall of Sylvia is sacred and great, and it must not be desecrated, you know?" A white-bearded old man on the podium said solemnly.
Don't look at his beard and snow-white, in fact, he is only sixty years old, but here, this is already long life.
Du Dian listened carefully. Three days after he signed up, the school officially started. This was his first class today. The old man did not explain the knowledge of the law as soon as he came up but briefly introduced some well-known things as if the purpose was to come to get acquainted with the children and consolidate the beliefs in the children's hearts. About the story of Sylvia's giant wall, as long as it is not an orphan, almost every child has heard his parents say it countless times since he was a child.

The other children were bored, but because they saw the white-bearded old man for the first time, they were a little afraid of life, so they didn't dare to make trouble.
Du Di'an listened with relish. These were exactly what he wanted to know most at the moment. Seeing that the old man himself seemed to be boring and did not intend to explain in depth, he couldn't help raising his hand and asked, "Teacher, what are you talking about natural disasters?"
The white-bearded old man and the other children were stunned. They didn't expect Du Di'an to be so bold and dare to ask questions. Second, they didn't expect that such a well-known thing would still be unknown to people.
Seeing Du Di'an's serious and hopeful face, the old man couldn't bear to attack the child's enthusiasm, but he just murmured in his heart. Didn't the child's parents tell him? He replied with a smile: "There are many natural disasters, volcanic eruptions, floods, earthquakes, and so on."
Du Dian was stunned and said reluctantly, "Is that all?"
The old man was speechless and said: "These disasters are already terrible, haven't you heard your parents say that a volcanic eruption alone can kill countless people, you see the dark clouds in the sky, this is caused by the volcanic eruption. "
Du Dian frowned slightly and said nothing, but sighed in his heart because he knew that the disaster three hundred years ago was not a simple natural disaster at all. Although all the disasters the old man said happened, it was caused by the explosion of a nuclear bomb. Yes, the reason why he asked knowingly was to see what information those who survived left behind. Obviously, in the hands of these descendants, they did not know the real cause and inside story of the disaster.
Perhaps, the inside story is too terrifying, so it is possible that it was blocked by the ruler above.
"Teacher, my mother said that it is very dangerous outside the giant wall. If you go out, you will die. Is this true?" A little fat man asked Du Dian's question, and he also raised his hand boldly and asked.

The old man looked solemn and said seriously: "Yes, there are devils and plagues living outside the giant wall. Once we go out, we will never come back. We can sit here and study, and we can eat rice and vegetables, all of which belong to the giant wall. Credit, so you must respect the giant wall and the wall builders, this is a profession as great as a doctor and our obedience!"
Everyone knows that "disciplinarians" refer to those who study the law. Children like Du Di'an who have just learned the law are called apprentice disciplines. If they graduate and pass the examination of the court, they can become A priest, which is a very sacred existence, as noble as a noble, not only can freely enter and exit the commercial area and residential area, but also enter the inner wall area!
"The devil and the plague..." All the children turned pale with fright, and no matter how young they were, they knew how terrifying these two were.
Du Di'an has a hint of curiosity at the bottom. He naturally doesn't believe in devils. Nuclear bombs baptized the world, and 99% of all creatures have been wiped out. This is just a fabricated word to intimidate children. Of course, the target of intimidation may not only be children, but also adults.
This made him wonder what the world outside the giant wall already looked like. Is it still full of the remnants of the nuclear bomb explosion? Or has it become a virgin forest because no one has pioneered it?
"It's time, let's end the get out of class." The white-bearded old man looked at the hourglass and said.
The other children immediately cheered.
At this moment, two young men in black leather armor suddenly appeared at the door, walking into the classroom as if no one else was there. Just as the white-bearded old man was about to speak, he suddenly noticed the black eagle-headed medals on their shoulders, his face suddenly filled with a smile, and he stepped forward, "The two adults came here, did you take those children away?"
Du Dian's ears perked up, a little vigilant and puzzled.
One of the slender young men nodded slightly, looked indifferent, and said meticulously: "Now I am naming the person I mentioned, stand up, do you understand?" He swept the audience coldly, not at all because the object was a child. soft.
All the children were immediately stunned and nervous. The white-bearded old man hurriedly reassured: "Don't be nervous, these two adults are guards, and those who are mentioned by their names will have the hope of joining public office. This is a happy event."
public office? Du Di'an heard Jula talk about it. In short, it is equivalent to the civil servants of the old era. They don't have to worry about their livelihood in their whole life. It is the dream career of many civilians.
However, Du Di'an noticed the medals on the shoulders of the two men. When he entered the residential area from the slum, he did not see such medals on the guards, and the standard leather armor was also different. Moreover, there was no reason for a guard in the area. To have a faculty member so in awe.
"Locke!" The young man in black armor sighed.
A thin child on the table in front of Du Di'an shuddered and said weakly: "In..."
"Stand up!" the young man in black armor shouted.
The skinny boy jumped up in fright.
"Marta!"
"Yes!" A girl quickly stood up.
"Lamar!"
"Carly!"
One by one the children were named and stood up, and the young man shouted: "Du Di'an!"
Du Dian narrowed his eyes and stood up slowly.
The children who were named, plus him, made a total of eight.
