Assistant examiner White’s words stirred everyone’s blood.
Fight! Vicious beasts are not scary!
His sister, Catherine, leaned closer to Austin’s ear.
“Don’t worry, brother. I will protect you in this exam!”
Catherine said confidently.
Austin’s ears felt ticklish as he raised his hand to pat Catherine’s head.
“Then I’ll rely on you to protect me.”
As the assistant examiner spoke, the ‘Fire Dragon’ vehicle let off a deafening siren.
The soldiers at the station saluted and sent them off.
The steel dragon-like transport vehicle started moving again and left the station.
It was worth noting that the carriages had spherical windows.
From outside, these spherical windows were scarlet red, like the eyes of a dragon-type vicious beast.
Every carriage of the transport vehicle had these spherical windows, adding to its intimidating feature.
Austin and his sister occupied a spot near the window.
Through the spherical window, they could see the rapidly retreating scenery.
Nearby were tracks installed with various defensive magiteks.
In the distance, row upon row of city buildings rose and fell like waves.
The ‘Fire Dragon’ picked up its speed.
Everyone attending the official exam finally embarked on the journey to Vicious Beast Town.
It would be the starting point of their new life.
Will they rise or fall?
Will they survive or perish?
An unremarkable town would decide all this.
After a while, they could see the city walls.
The tall and magnificent steel city wall had received the order that the ‘Fire Dragon’ applied to leave the city.
The thick and sturdy city gate split into four pieces and opened quickly like an elaborate vault.
The ‘Fire Dragon’ transport vehicle drove through a tunnel of the city wall.
These tunnels were all equipped with deadly magic weapons to prevent the beasts from passing through the tunnel and intruding the city during beast tides.
The firepower of the defenses here was naturally astonishing.
There was light at the end of the tunnel.
When the transport vehicle passed through the brightness, everyone’s vision became clear in an instant.
The dead and desolate hunting area entered everyone’s sight.
It used to be inhabited by humans and once a symbol of civilization.
Now, only ruins and vicious beasts remained.
The apprentice magisters fell silent.
It was their first time out of the city!
Even Austin, who worked in the magical beast breeding area and was used to seeing the destructive capabilities of magical beasts, was left in shock and helplessness.
The apocalypse had destroyed most of human civilization.
Decades had passed since the apocalypse.
Humans have been searching for the truth and origin of the apocalypse, but their efforts have gone nowhere.
The ‘Fire Dragon’ continued to speed up.
The entire vehicle rumbled and sped along the tracks.
On both sides of the track were towering magic barriers.
In fact, without the magic barriers, there were not many beasts that dared to challenge the transport vehicle disguised as a ferocious beast.
The apprentice magisters in the carriage were either resting with their eyes closed, waiting nervously, or wiping their magick guns quietly.
Only the examiners at the head or tail of the carriage seemed relaxed as they checked the information of the “candidates” with the magick monitor.
