Chapter 88: The Red Fog
The massive steel gates of Bastion Seven loomed in the early dawn light.
A thick, unnatural red fog pressed against the towering concrete walls, swirling with the toxic miasma of the Wildlands. When Draven and Estella went out for hunting and when the Beast Wave hit the Bastion Walls, the fog was not present.
It worked in a specific cycle like the cycle of the moon. And it is a total mystery to normal citizens for the reason behind it's existence. All they knew was it was because of the Monsters.
The eleven students of the Special Class stood before the gates, fully armed and clad in their dark Vanguard tactical gear.
Waiting for them at the checkpoint was Student Council President Sharika Goldmane.
She stood with her hands clasped behind her back, her silver eyes sweeping over the squad.
The veteran Vanguard guards stationed at the gate watched the first-years with grim, silent respect.
