Chapter 21: Gravity Belt
Yang Feng was taken to the interior of the island along with the crowd, where there was a building similar to a prison. The high walls of the courtyard had a tower at each corner, and each tower was equipped with a heavy machine gun, guarded day and night. The walls were topped with high-voltage electric nets, making it extremely difficult to get out once inside.
As Yang Feng entered the tall iron gate, he found that the entire building occupied a vast area, almost half of the island, divided into two parts: the training zone and the rest zone. Yang Feng and his group were first taken to the rest zone, where they received their daily necessities. Since fewer than 500 people had managed to survive and make it onto the island, they were considered elite, so they were given a night's rest before facing the most brutal training on the second day.
Yang Feng learned about the situation of this training camp from the daily necessities that were distributed. It turned out that this base was a training base for the Black Ice Mercenary Group, which is the world's top mercenary group with the largest influence. Every mercenary in the Black Ice Mercenary Group has strong abilities, and they have completed every task they have undertaken without fail. The Black Ice Mercenary Group also has many training bases around the world, recruiting students globally, and anyone who trains here can gain extremely powerful strength.
Moreover, the participants are all people with a certain background, and they are all children of large families. However, like Yang Feng, they are all illegitimate children of those families, sent here for training. If they can obtain great power, they can gain a share of that power for their own family. And if they die here, it's not a big loss!
Moreover, Yang Feng also learned that coming here for training is equivalent to joining the Black Ice Mercenary Group. After graduating from here, he will become a member of the Black Ice Mercenary Group for life and can never betray them. If he betrays the Black Ice, he will be hunted down by the entire group. Of course, after joining the Black Ice Mercenary Group, one can also use the group's power to help oneself get what they want. However, the amount of help one can get from the group depends on their level, and the higher the level, the greater the rights in hand, and the more help one can get from the organization!
The Black Ice Mercenary Corps, apart from the most mysterious leader and deputy leader, are divided into six levels: S, A, B, C, D, and E. The highest is the S-level, and there is only one S-level mercenary in the entire corps. There are twelve A-level mercenaries, each named after a different star sign. These thirteen people are the core strength of the Black Ice Mercenary Corps. It's because of their existence that the Black Ice Mercenary Corps can become the world's top mercenary corps. Other mercenary corps may have one or two A-level mercenaries at most, but an S-level mercenary has never existed before.
Yang Feng was secretly astonished after reading the introduction of the Black Ice Mercenary Group, he didn't expect this organization to be so powerful. Although it's said that training here is equivalent to selling oneself to the Black Ice Mercenary Group, if one can borrow the power of Black Ice, it will be a great help in dealing with the Yang family in the future! However, for now, the most important thing is to survive smoothly for two years and ultimately come out alive, only then can one become a mercenary of the Black Ice Mercenary Group and borrow their power.
Yang Feng finished thinking and began to rest, sitting cross-legged on his bed in his room, quietly regulating his body, allowing the internal energy inside him to flow through the meridians. Although he couldn't cultivate at this time and couldn't absorb yang energy and yin energy to increase the true energy of the Nine Yin Scripture and the Nine Yang Divine Skill, the internal energy inside Yang Feng's body could still circulate in the meridians to help him recover from fatigue as soon as possible.
When Yang Feng had almost caught his breath, he suddenly heard the assembly whistle. Since Yang Feng hadn't taken off his clothes, he immediately got up and ran towards the assembly point. When he arrived at the assembly point, he found that he was the first to arrive, while others hadn't arrived yet.
"Very good, you're the first to arrive, from now on you'll be Number One. Forget your old name, here we only have code names, no names!" A white man with a height of over two meters, like an iron tower, stood in the center of the square and said as he looked at Yang Feng's appearance, while behind him was a team of soldiers holding guns.
The white instructor finished speaking and looked at the watch in his hand, then looked at each person who came here, gave them a code name, until 350, when the white instructor waved his hand, the soldiers holding guns rushed to where they lived before, and then heard a dense gunfire.
The people standing in the square, including Yang Feng, were shocked and terrified when they heard Yang Feng's words. Although they had been prepared for this being a place where killing was rampant, they never thought it would come to this point. Would being late really cost them their lives?! Then they saw that group of soldiers dragging out the bodies of those who couldn't make it to the square on time and were shot, like dead dogs, with bright red blood flowing on the ground, so shocking that Yang Feng felt his heart trembling, and a chill rose from the bottom of his heart.
"Alright, the trash has been cleared. From today on, if you 350 people can't assemble within one minute, your fate will be the same as this trash." The white instructor said to the crowd.
"I'm sure you're all aware, from the moment you set foot on this island, you've severed all ties with your original families. From now on, your lives belong to Black Ice. Here, you'll only obey orders and complete training, or face death!" The white instructor continued.
"Enough said, I am your chief instructor. From now on, you will be divided into seven groups of fifty people each based on your numbers. Each group will have an instructor to train you, and they will teach you how to kill. Only one person from each group of fifty can survive, so strive for your own life!" The white instructor said finally, then turned around and left.
Then seven instructors came out and went to the front of the seven small groups that had already been divided, taking their respective team members away. Yang Feng was number one, so he belonged to the first group of the top 50, and the instructor of this group was a white man with a height of about 1.9 meters, who looked somewhat weak and frail, and his face didn't even have a hint of blood color.
The man took Yang Feng and the others to the eastern part of the island, where there was also a training area. In the next period of time, Yang Feng would start his training here.
"In the following days, I will be your instructor. My name is Karl. Don't worry, I won't be as brutal as other instructors. I'll teach you everything that needs to be taught, but only one of you can survive in the end. It's up to you how to make yourself live. There are many places on the island where weapons are hidden, and you can find them yourselves. I won't interfere with you. You can also challenge me, which is allowed on this island, as long as you think you have the ability!" Karl said to everyone.
Yang Feng stood quietly in front of Karl, listening attentively. After finishing listening, he didn't look around, but kept his eyes fixed on Karl. The others, however, looked at each other with hostility after hearing Karl's words.
"Alright, now all of you put this on, and then we'll begin today's training!" Karl took out fifty wide, belt-like objects from a bag behind his back and handed them to each person, having everyone wear one around their waist.
Yang Feng looked at the belt-like thing that had already been put on, and couldn't tell what material it was made of. On this thing, there was a round button-like object, and next to this button were marked ten numbers from zero to ten.
"This is the Gravity Belt, the latest technological product, with a maximum gravity of ten times. From today on, you will be training with this Gravity Belt. Alright, now set your Gravity Belts to one-time gravity and start running around the island's beach!" Karl gave his first command.
Fifty people heard Karl's command and immediately adjusted the gravity belt on their waist to double the gravity, then they started running around the beach in a difficult manner. Yang Feng also felt a great increase in pressure throughout his body when he adjusted the gravity belt to double the gravity, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him, making every step extremely difficult. However, Yang Feng continued to run forward step by step, because if he didn't, it would be disobedience, and that could mean death in the next second!
Yang Feng secretly circulated the internal energy of Jiuyin Zhenjing and Jiuyang Shen Gong, which made his pressure lighter and running easier. However, Yang Feng soon stopped circulating his internal energy because he thought that such training was a good opportunity to increase his physical strength and power, and if he used his internal energy to offset some of it, he might not achieve any effect.
After Yang Feng withdrew his internal force, he felt a great increase in pressure, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted. In his heart, he silently recited the Nine Yin Manual's Easy Tendon and Bone Tempering Chapter, using the pressure of gravity to temper his body bit by bit, making his body more perfect, laying a more solid foundation for future internal force cultivation.
Thus, Yang Feng took his first step into the mercenary career, and it was here that he laid the foundation for becoming the king of mercenaries in the future!
