The dilapidated walls of the city, many of which had already collapsed, were still standing tall, covered in the mottled traces of the years. Cracks spread from the base all the way to the top of the walls, and signs of weathering were visible everywhere. It seemed that they would collapse with the slightest touch.
This was an ancient rectangular city, probably only a quarter the size of the City of Hope, with a castle at its center that faintly revealed its former glory and majesty. Song Jian felt that this city bore some resemblance to the human castles in the Assessment World.
This was the abandoned fortress that Instructor Duan Jian had mentioned—it had once been the base of a legion of a splendid empire. After several hundred years, the empire no longer existed, and the stationed legion could not be found, leaving only remnants like the Magic Crystal Railgun to speak of the legion's past might.
