"Take your time deciding. The Confinement Building's authority will only continue to grow."
The Black Iron Guard said nothing more and drove Yu Jing deep into the island.
The island was not covered entirely by dense forest. Through the trees lining both sides of the road, one could occasionally see artificially groomed grasslands, and even distinctive buildings constructed upon them. Some areas had been completely cultivated, with various vegetables and fruits growing there.
According to the information Yu Jing knew, the cultivation work and the owners of those strange-looking buildings were all "prisoners" within the Confinement Building.
However, these prisoners had been confirmed to possess "controllable" traits during long-term confinement and observation.
As long as some of their living conditions were met, these "prisoners" became extremely docile and were classified as "safe prisoners." They could do things for the island, such as the cultivation work currently underway, or even guard the river encircling the island's outer perimeter.
"We're about to arrive at the Confinement Building area. All electronic communication devices and point cards you're carrying will be blocked. Your every action will be monitored in full. Any action that violates the Confinement Building's regulations will result in prosecution. If it seriously involves confidential matters, you will be detained in the Confinement Building permanently."
After the guard's reminder, the car stopped before a thirty-meter-tall metal gate.
A camera beside the gate scanned the vehicle from every angle. After confirming their identities, an entrance just large enough for the car to pass through opened at the bottom of the gate. The Black Iron Guard drove Yu Jing toward the island's core region.
