There is no subjective compulsion to enter the space of destiny.
Who, how many, and when to enter Destiny Space are all decisions made by the Council. They are all based on the "Optimum Human Enhancement Program", which has been formulated after a hundred years of experience.
For students enrolled in the [Royal Knight Academy], it is required that a group of students be selected every two months to enter the Destiny Space.
Each of the five departments of the academy had a corresponding target.
When the time is up, they must give a sufficient list of trainee knights, or else they will reduce the fixed fund distribution of the faculties, or even exploit certain rights.
Of course, it was not acceptable to arrange students arbitrarily.
The survival rate of trainee knights and their performance in the Destiny Space were also the basic indicators used for evaluation.
The teams currently concentrated in front of the Destiny Bell Tower were a total of eight.
The minimum of two and the maximum of six (the number of squads will have no effect on the difficulty of the Destiny event, and even if the squad size is 100, it will generate a Destiny world adapted to a hundred people, and the overall difficulty factor will not change).
The trainee knights who were about to face the true horror, concentrated here, were too busy to greet each other even if they knew each other.
"This clock tower, is odd."
Standing outside alone, Han Dong had heard the sound of countless tiny gears turning, and even felt dizzy from gazing at the clock tower for a long time.
The bottom of the clock tower.
A vertical tubular style bronze door.
Zzzzzz! (vapor sounds)
As a large amount of steam was released, a copper pillar rose periodically, revealing the red metal passageway leading into the bell tower.
A [Fancy Dress] clock tower staff member stepped out.
Wearing a weird vortex mask and a kind of rigid white robe with a collar that stood up over his head.
The robe covered the legs, revealing only the feet wearing black crystal boots.
His voice echoed directly into the mind of each squad.
"Please enter the Destiny Bell Tower in order as a squad.
An inspection of your carry-ons will be conducted, Once the inspection is complete, you will be led by my Heavy Shadow to the different gears and await entry into the Destiny space."
The interior of the bell tower corresponded to a lengthy inspection tunnel.
Not only would the carry-ons be checked, but their identities would also be verified to ensure that they matched the identities of the students reported by the faculties.
As one passed through the red inspection passage, the sound of multiple gears turning from inside the bell tower's walls could be clearly heard.
The mechanics of the clock tower's interior are so complex that only a few people know how the gears work.
The significance of the clock tower's existence was not only to operate the clock, but also to protect the dawn of hope for mankind - the [Gate of Destiny].
Team Cass arrived at a four-square transparent glass room.
Thousands and thousands of spatially overlapping gear structures were visible all around.
It was as if every room in the clock tower was under the regulation of these gears.
Han Dong tried his best to suppress his shock, such a mechanical structure did not exist in his former world.
Cass explained for Han Dong, "The Destiny Clock Tower is the perfect crystallization of the highest science and technology of the Holy City, and is the safest building in the Holy City, Without the guidance of the [Clockmaker], we would be lost in the Clock Tower space and would never be able to get out.
Each room within the clock tower was located at a different location at a different time, all determined by different gears, and every second was changing slightly.
Even though I've been here twice already, it still feels incredible here."
Apparently, that means a guide in a strange costume.
The glass room where Cass and the others were, began to move as the gears turned.
When the room came to a complete stop, a door actually opened out of thin air on one side of the glass room!
Behind the door corresponds to an endless, pitch-black space.
The flames could not spread out here either, In the darkness, only the central location of the [Gate of Destiny] was visible.
To quote the original description from the book here.
[It has a golden edge of light, an elliptical structure like a starry night sky, like a stellar gate where multiple dimensions mingle within.]
"Is this the real Gate of Destiny?"
Han Dong actually had the feeling of his consciousness being swept up in it as he gazed at this stellar door.
It wasn't an illusion; prolonged gazing would really cause the consciousness to leave the body.
(As for the way for novices to enter the Fate Space, it was through some sort of giant formation that connected the festival square to the [Gate of Destiny], allowing thousands of participants to enter at once, greatly saving time and making it easier to manage.
(After all, ordinary civilians were not qualified or necessary to enter the Destiny Bell Tower.)
"You are the first team on this month's Destiny Tour, good luck to you."
The Clock worker made a polite and inviting gesture.
The four people who had already prepared themselves did not hesitate.
With Cass as their leader, they stepped through the door of Destiny.
The moment they got involved, the Fate card with the scepter's mark on it dissolved by itself.
After experiencing a brief tremor of consciousness, they arrived at a place with an 'odd' style.
For Cass and the others, the style was odd.
But to Han Dong, this kind of place was all too familiar.
Wasn't this the image shop in his original world?
The hottest shop in the age of VCDs and DVDs, However, due to the rapid arrival of the Internet age, this kind of shop, which mainly sells CDs, immediately declined.
Han Dong completely did not expect that the venue chosen in advance for the Destiny event would actually be an eighties style video store.
The books, DVDs, and game discs placed on the shelves were all in a state of chaos.
When Han Dong and the others tried to get a closer look, the fonts and covers would become distorted and blurry.
Only the three items placed at the cashier's desk were normally visible.
Apparently, these three items corresponded to three different frames of the Destiny World.
A game dictionary gift box.
"As it turns out, it's all based on the literary products of the world before I was born as the world framework. Had I known; I would have spent more time with these things before."
A familiar Destiny Space prompt came in.
"Please make your choice within fifteen minutes, after which a random world will be created.
The three literary works placed on the cashier's desk popped up a 'pop-up window' filled with basic information, making it easy for the team to learn more and choose.
