Jack saw as Kill Order disappeared into the golden opening, followed by the rest of the members of Black Cloak. After the last of Black Cloak members disappeared into the door, there was a slight pause, before Scarface led Death Associates to the door. Scarface went inside first, then his other members followed. Red Death glanced back at Jack for a while, throwing a hostile look, before returning his gaze to the door and stepped through.
"I think she is in love with you," Bowler commented.
Jack ignored him.
After two famous guilds took the lead. More and more from the crowd trickled into the door. Although with everyone moving, it seemed like a big mess, no one was pushing on others or cutting the line. Everyone was obedient to keep everything orderly and not making any trouble, as Honuren was keeping watch beside the door. Everyone was terrified of the old man.
"Shall we go as well?" Silverwing asked.
"After you," Jack said.
Silverwing nodded. He walked forward to the very front of the group with Bluedaze and the others. Jack followed behind. Silverwing turned to face his guild, and said in a loud voice, "White Scarfs! Line up in formation. Walk orderly. Watch your brothers and sisters beside you. Do not get separated. Let's go! We are heading to a new world."
The guild followed his order aptly. Jack was impressed by the members' discipline. It was like watching soldiers in practice in an army camp. Silverwing then led the way as they moved with the crowd towards the door.
As more people joined in the exodus, the area around the door become cramped. Some people couldn't help but get pushed aside by the crowd, but they do not dare to raise their voices to protest. They just helplessly went to the back of the line or tried to find an opening where they could squeeze themselves in.
After quite some while moving with a sea of people, Jack and his friends finally came to the front of the door. The door was massive when being seen from up close. It was so wide that it could fit twenty people from side to side, and that were how many people went in at a time. The top of the door was as high as a three-story building. Jack lifted his hand and touch the golden layer with his finger. It went in as if there was nothing there, he felt nothing, and he couldn't see the tip of his finger.
"Could you please move?" The person behind him asked with a polite sentence, yet carried an irritated tone.
"Sorry," Jack said and stepped inside.
As his entire body sank in, he could see nothing but golden light. He was suddenly weightless. He didn't feel his feet touching the ground, as if he was floating. Then the scenery started to shift, in a rapid manner. The golden light was twisting into a circular well, elongated into a tunnel. He was sucked in by this golden tunnel and flew through it at a very fast speed.
He didn't feel any wind thought, but the view made him felt like he was moving in a high-speed train, albeit without the train. After an indeterminate amount of time. Everything became motionless abruptly. The golden light around him started to disperse. He found himself in an open field with other people who had crossed through the door scattered around him.
The sky above was clear and blue. Forest and mountains were seen far away. He could see a stream not far from there. It looked like scenery from the countryside. There was nothing out of ordinary in this so-called new world. He then noticed some noises behind.
He turned and saw structures. There were wide ranges of settlements with a wall surrounding them. The wall was so long he couldn't see its both ends from left to right. Deeper inside the settlements, he could see numerous tall buildings. Not those kinds of modern skyscrapers, but stone building like medieval structures. However, they were unlike any medieval buildings he saw in the history book as none of them could reach the height these buildings shown.
Further ahead, there was a large castle, larger than any building he ever saw. Sitting majestically in the middle of all those other buildings. He knew then he was looking at a metropolitan that was somehow using a medieval setting. The noises he had heard were the sound of the city behind the wall.
Not far from where they were was the gate wall. There were several armored guards stationed under the gate. Several people who had come first had made their way towards the gate. He saw Bowler and Flame were there near him, and Silverwing and his friends were making headcount on all the members who had made the cross.
"Let's head over there," Jack told them.
"You go first, I'll go once I make sure everyone had made it across," Silverwing said.
Jack nodded then led Bowler and Flame towards the gate. As he approached, he noticed that everybody was crowding in front of the gate, but no one went through the gate. The guards were barring the way. Some people had some talk with the guards, but it didn't seem like they were being let through.
When Jack came close enough, he asked the person in front, "do the guards not allowing us into the city?"
The person looked at Jack, he seemed surprised as he remembered Jack as the first rank in the level competition. He then told Jack, "I'm not sure as well. I think I heard them say that we should wait first. Until everyone was present and then they will make an announcement."
While they were talking, they suddenly heard people shouting in front. Jack turned and saw the gang of Weary Wolf trying to push their way through the gate. Jack sighed, these people really like to act like a bunch of street gangsters. He saw one of them was shouting at the guard and shoving him with his hands. Jack used his God-eye monocle to inspect the guards.
Holy shit! Jack screamed in his mind. Level 50? Each of the guards was a level 50 Foot Soldier (Basic Human). Did those Weary Wolf people had brain damage that they didn't even bother to try inspecting the guards' level? They should be wary once they found out that they couldn't see the guards' level.
"Who dares to make trouble here?!" A loud voice was heard from behind the guards. They parted and allowed another armored soldier walked out. His armors looked similar but a bit different from the other guards, more stylish. Jack scanned him using his God-eye Monocle: Level 52 Guard Captain (Elite Human).
As the Captain appeared, Boulder of the Weary Wolf gang said in an equally loud voice. "We want to go in, you can't prevent us from going in!"
The Captain glared at him and said, "you can go in when we say you can! For now, stay here first until everyone is present. Then we will tell you the regulations before allowing you in."
"What regulations?" Boulder spat, "if you have something to say, then say it now. Don't waste our time. We are going in!"
Boulder and his gang started to try forcing their way in, some even took out their weapons.
Those fools never learn. They are dead for sure, Jack said in his mind.
Seeing the hostility of this group of newcomers, the Captain no longer held back. He pulled out his large broadsword, then send a circular swing forward. The swing was so fast it created a small windstorm that threw all the Weary Wolf members several distances back. They crashed hard and suffered damages that put all their HP bars in critical.
"You were lucky I hold back," the Captain said. "If you stir up any trouble again, I will end you right here!"
All Weary Wolf people went pale, they immediately moved back, didn't dare to go near the guards anymore. The rest of the crowd also became quiet. They obediently wait in front of the gate. Silverwing and their people came over not long after.
"What's the situation," he asked.
"Guards said wait. Another thing, under any circumstances absolutely don't mess with the guards," Jack informed.
