The sun was just rising, and the morning light came into view.
Noland Lee sat on the speeding motorcycle, squinting his eyes, raising his hand to block the dazzling sunlight, and gazing at the black line on the horizon.
In a certain animation related to Titans, there had been a massive high wall surrounding the city.
Noland Lee was now seeing it in person.
The black line rising on the horizon gradually became the city wall spanning tens of kilometers.
Standing as tall and thick as a large water conservancy dam project, the wall reached for the heavens, shielding the sky.
The wall stretched several kilometers underground, enclosing the entire aberration den in the Great Rift, forming a semi-closed container.
Such a massive alchemy engineering project was not designed to protect the residents within the wall from the invasion of the outer world, but to monitor and limit the aberration den in the Great Rift inside the city.
The iconic building of Union City was this circular wall surrounding the entire city.
Essentially, every alchemy workshop, alchemist, ordinary person, every building, and every person in the city were contributing to the containment of the aberrations in the Great Rift.
What interested Lee was, why were the people and buildings placed on the inner side of the wall?
Noland Lee raised this question to Farrell Scott.
Fars Scott shook his head and spoke like a storyteller:
“In the beginning, Union City was not called Union City; it was called the Aberration Control Zone. Inside the wall, there were no buildings or humans, only regular entries into the fissure to clean up aberrations and maintain the underground pipeline facilities.
“I told you before that high-purity all-purpose metal powder is contained in the feces of aberrations.
“While constructing the wall, the Alchemy Cathedral installed a complete set of alchemy devices for collecting aberration feces and extracting all-purpose metal powder in the underground aberration nests.
“Every three months or so, the underground alchemy devices use strong air currents to eject the collected all-purpose metal powder onto the ground, forming a metallic dust rain lasting about one day. We call this day ‘Spray Powder Day’.”
Fars sighed:
