From the window of the principal's office, the muscular principal Sparrow stood watching the transport plane slowly disappear into the rainy clouds.
Beep~ Beep~ Beep~
He casually took out a small, encrypted communicator from his pocket. A female voice came through.
"The twins' evaluation results."
"P, Ms. Viper."
"Perfect? It seems the twins have integrated very well."
"P" stood for perfect. Viper, on the other end of the communicator, was a little surprised. Three months could actually have such a profound effect on the twins. This made her very satisfied.
"Those children's hearts were originally kind, but they were buried by hatred, like a poison deep in their bones. Good memories will change children who live in darkness and hate. I believe our ideas, God's ideas, are not wrong." the muscular principal said matter-of-factly.
Their final core objective was indeed to subtly influence the children, but it was not crude brainwashing. Instead, they were influenced with kindness, optimism, positivity, and light. These elements would become the most important ingredients in forming their loyal bond. When combined, not to mention two twelve-year-old children, even those who had experienced more darkness and pain would be affected and healed.
"Well done, Sparrow. The Guards of God must be absolutely loyal. Now, we wait. When those children grow up, under the guidance of God, we will move toward a new and great era."
"I look forward to that day, and I will give everything." Sparrow smiled brightly.
More than 200 kilometers into the North Pole, there was a vast island covering 1 million square meters. Hexagonal snowflakes flew and collided in the wind, gradually eroding into a fine, cement-like snow that settled on the ice.
The island's mountains were covered in ice and snow, but a very large, flat area had been cleared. A transport plane slowly descended from the sky onto a newly built helipad. When the hatch opened, two hundred children of various ages, dressed in down jackets, stepped out, their eyes wide with excitement.
The youngest was ten, and the oldest was no more than sixteen. Only the older girls, most of whom had come from the Red Room, had a better understanding of the harsh snowy environment. This was different from the excitement of the children from Madripoor, where it didn't snow heavily in the winter.
The twins, Wanda and Pietro, were among them. The helipad was very large, and a thin layer of frost had condensed on the ground. The tires of the large transport trucks that had been waiting for a long time were all-terrain. The children all got on the double-decker trucks. Through the windows, they could see the distant Icelandic landscape of snow-covered mountains and glaciers—a magnificent natural wonder. The only sounds here were the wind and snow; people were a rare sight.
After a ten-minute drive along a winding road, they finally arrived at their destination. The area was also large but not flat. The buildings were trapezoidal and built to match the terrain. Their architectural style was slightly rough, a bit like ancient Roman architecture. The compound had a library, a cafeteria, and power facilities. If it weren't for the remote location, it would have looked more like a modern town with a population of only a few hundred.
After everyone got off the bus, they gathered together as the transport vehicles left. They stood in a neat row. In front of them were a dozen women with good figures and beautiful, Eastern European faces. They were all wearing a uniform made of a special, close-fitting fiber, but not a leotard. Some had short hair, some ponytails, and some long hair.
Although they were all women, Wanda and the other children felt an extremely terrifying and dangerous aura from them. This was especially true for Wanda, whose perception ability was becoming more and more outstanding and sharp. But something puzzled her: she seemed to see an inexplicable instability in these women.
Before Wanda could think about it, a blonde woman with a ponytail stepped forward. Glancing at Wanda and the other children, a serious voice rang out.
"This will be your home and training ground for the next five years. You have all been selected by God to become members of the future Guards. As instructors, we will teach you to temper your bodies and wills through cruel training. You will thrive in this harsh environment. Here, you must obey all orders from me and the other instructors unconditionally. Do you understand?"
The final word was roared like thunder. All the students straightened up with serious expressions and shouted, "Understood, Instructor!"
"Very good. Here, efficiency and time will be an important part of your life. In addition to training, you will also have special teachers to guide you in your studies. Now, find your homes according to the numbers you were given. After lunch, training will begin. Dismissed!"
Following the instructor's order, all the children immediately relaxed and walked toward the houses with their number plates. The several rows of trapezoidal houses were all large bungalows. Each bungalow was a separate house, much like a dormitory, where four people would live together.
Wanda and three other girls found their house in the second row. At the door, the girls smiled at each other and found their own rooms after walking in. Inside were their suitcases of clothes, which had been transported earlier. Each room was large, but the decorations were very simple. They had their own bathrooms, wardrobes, and so on.
After putting away her clothes, Wanda walked out of her room. Two of the other three girls were from the same school, and the third was from another. After introducing themselves, the four girls began chatting. When it was nearly noon, they heard the instructor shouting outside. They went to the cafeteria together, knowing that formal training would begin in the afternoon. Their hearts were filled with both anxiety and anticipation.
