Chapter 331 Purgatory on Earth
Grindelwald quietly returned to the desolate hillside outside Fort Hood military base.
In the night, his figure almost blended into the darkness.
The base was brightly lit at this time, and the busy figures of the soldiers were looming in the night.
They were quickly cleaning up the battlefield that had just ended.
There were countless soldiers standing guard outside the base.
They did not relax their vigilance because of the wizard's withdrawal, but were always on guard against the wizard's counterattack.
Grindelwald did not choose to sneak over the ground again, but instead went underground.
There were too many people before and he couldn't do it.
But this time he came alone, so he had more means at his disposal.
Grindelwald moved underground carefully, fearing to alert the patrolling soldiers on the ground.
However, his worries seemed unnecessary, as the soldiers on the ground were busy cleaning up the battlefield.
He would not even notice the subtle fluctuations coming from the ground.
Finally, Grindelwald arrived right below the center of the base.
He cast magic to create a huge pit, and then reinforced the surrounding areas with magic.
In this hidden underground space, he placed a huge spherical device.
It was the "Mind-distorting Magnetic Field Generator" that was sealed up by Hephis' order.
This means that Snape was replaced by the head of District 13.
If it were still Vanassa, she would rather send more wizards to attack this tough nut than allow Grindelwald to use this powerful weapon.
Grindelwald sat directly into the launcher and put on his helmet.
Without any hesitation, he pressed the red button.
Various lights on the huge spherical device began to flash.
Grindelwald's expression gradually became ferocious.
An invisible wave spread out from the generator to the surrounding areas.
Snape had seen the planning report for the raid before.
He knew that Fort Hood military base covers an area of more than 10,000 hectares.
So he directly handed the final version of the mind-distorting magnetic field generator to Grindelwald.
This version of the magnetic field covers an area of hundreds of kilometers, enough to cover the entire military base.
At first the soldiers didn't notice anything unusual.
They were still busy, some were carrying bodies, some were repairing fortifications.
However, as the magnetic field gradually strengthened, an indescribable haze seemed to spread in the air.
It silently erodes everyone's mind.
The soldiers began to feel an inexplicable anxiety and uneasiness.
Their heartbeats involuntarily quickened and their breathing became rapid.
Suddenly a soldier who was usually mild-mannered stopped what he was doing.
There was a violent gleam in his eyes.
Without any warning.
He suddenly raised the rifle in his hand and pointed it at his comrade who was bending over to clean the bullet casings.
The sudden sound of gunfire broke the tranquility of the night and tore apart the trust and harmony among comrades.
At that moment, time seemed to freeze and everyone was stunned. They looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief.
But then, more soldiers began to behave abnormally.
The calmness and rationality of the past were lost in their eyes.
In its place was deep fear, uncontrollable rage, and complete madness.
The brothers who once fought side by side now seemed to be possessed by demons.
They began to accuse and curse each other, and even drew their guns without hesitation.
On this battlefield, the threat is no longer from the enemy, but from the bloody slaughter among one's own people.
In the corner of the base, two soldiers stood face to face. The trust they once had was gone from their eyes, leaving only naked hostility.
After a moment's hesitation, they pulled the trigger at the same time, and two gunshots rang out almost simultaneously.
The two men fell to the ground, and blood spread on the cold ground.
Some sane people tried to calm the chaos.
But their cries seemed so insignificant in the chaos.
Soon they were also drawn into the ruthless killing.
Fear and malice spread rapidly in their hearts like a plague.
They drew their weapons and began to attack each other.
Their faces were distorted, and there was only the desire to kill and destroy in their eyes.
A young soldier was besieged by three of his companions.
He wailed helplessly, but was attacked even more fiercely in return.
His body was cut by the sharp blade and blood stained the ground red.
In desperation, he also raised the gun in his hand and shot blindly, knocking down one former comrade after another.
Next to an ammunition depot at the base, several soldiers were fighting fiercely for a machine gun.
Their faces were twisted with greed and madness, as if that machine gun was their only hope of survival.
During the fierce battle, the ammunition depot was accidentally detonated.
The huge explosion was deafening, flames shot up into the sky, and the surrounding soldiers were thrown into the air by the shock wave of the explosion.
In a dark corner, a soldier curled up and trembled in fear.
His eyes were filled with fear and despair as he watched his companions fall one by one.
There was nothing he could do.
He held a pistol tightly in his hand, like the last straw in his life.
The commander also fell into madness.
He pulled out his pistol and fired randomly into the air, roaring meaninglessly.
As if this was the only way he could vent the confusion and panic in his heart.
In this chaotic killing, no one was spared.
Those soldiers who tried to escape this human tragedy were also affected by the ubiquitous distorted magnetic field.
On their way to escape, they suspected each other and killed each other until the last one fell.
As time passed, the screams in the base gradually weakened.
The bodies of the soldiers lay scattered on the ground, their faces still showing the distorted expressions they had in life.
The bodies of the soldiers lay scattered on the ground, with distorted expressions still on their faces.
Blood flowed from their bodies, gathered into rivers, flowed to the low-lying areas, and formed a pool of blood.
Fire and smoke once again covered the land.
But this time, it is not to resist foreign enemies, but to destroy each other.
Hugs between comrades turned into deadly chokeholds, and friendly conversations turned into deadly lies.
The evil in human nature was infinitely magnified under the distortion of the magnetic field, turning this military base into a hell on earth.
At the same time, the witches imprisoned in the cells were also affected by the mind-distorting magnetic field.
Their eyes gradually became violent, and the hatred for the enemy in their hearts was infinitely magnified.
They began to accuse and curse each other, and even fought.
They blamed the failure of the mission and the death of their comrades on their fellow prisoners.
Fortunately, they were already handcuffed and there were no weapons or equipment in the cell.
Therefore, although the fight between them was fierce, it only caused superficial injuries and was not fatal.
