My Space-Time System
Chapter 297: Debriefing with Major Reeves.
The next day after breakfast, all teams assembled at the hall where they were to be teleported to their different station on the city walls.
Once they took their positions on the warp array, the rings of light at the bottom rose with a veil of light, and when it went down Blake's team had been warped to the southern wall of the city.
When the bright light had dimmed, Blake and his team found themselves in a warp array platform on the southern wall.
"Good day students."
The students turned to see a man in his early forties who had a heart-shaped face with perfectly trimmed sideburns and a pointed nose. On his body was a half-black cloak with red seams at both halves forming the ash corps' insignia at the center when closed and under the cloak were multiple medals pinned unto a black suit vest.
"I am Colonel Darius and it's a pleasure meeting you all." Darius said with a gentle smile on his face.
Standing beside him was a muscular white-haired man with a porcelain skin tone and a mean-cold expression on his face.
Looking at the 2 who were the same height, one would straight away think that the white-haired man was superior in rank because of the frightening aura he exuded, but the ash seams on his uniform that formed the corps' insignia gave away his rank.
During their history class, they had been taught about the 5 uniforms of the ash corps and rankings. The lowest rank was the plain black cloak and uniforms with the empire's insignia, the 4th was the ash seams that formed the insignia at the center of the cloak, 3rd was the white seams, 4th was the red seams and the highest was the golden seams Bryon wore the day he saved them.
'Although his face is quite scary, he still doesn't come close to Instructor Zirrack?' Blake thought when he saw the mean expression of the white-haired man.
(AN: I decided to use the normal military ranking to make reading easier to understand.)
Darius began talking when he saw that everyone had composed themselves. "There are 2 reasons you have been called into action earlier than expected; the first is that the beast tide came earlier and the second is that we need you all to get accustomed to how we operate before the main event starts."
"To prevent confusion that will cost lives, you will be taught everything you need to know to survive and defend the walls of this city. You will be supervised by Major Reeves who will be taking over from me. " After saying all he needed to, Darius warped away and the white-haired Major Reeves took his position.
"No one has any idea of when the beasts would launch a full-scale attack on the city, so we would use the limited amount of time we have to teach you a few things." Major Reeves said as he began walking back and forth.
"We would be looking at 6 things; the 1st lesson would be teaching you the most efficient way to kill beasts from the top.
2nd lesson is to learn how to prevent beasts from breaking the barrier, wall or making their way onto the top of the wall.
3rd lesson is focused on teaching you damage control and how to remain calm in a situation where beasts manage to come to the top.
4th lesson is learning how to operate the weapons on the wall if something happens to the operator and you happen to be close by.
5th lesson is how to go down the wall to kill a group or a particular beast, amidst the chaos.
The final lesson is teaching you how to save a member who is outside the wall or how to retrieve the corpse of fallen comrades or beasts."
'I would have loved to complain about why the school didn't teach us this beforehand, but unfortunately, there is no way for them to simulate an environment as perfect as this without it being the beast tide season.' Blake was not happy that they did not know of such important information, but there was no one to blame.
"You shall be taken to your dimensional tents, immediately after lunch every team is meant to report to this spot for the 1st lesson." Major Reeves dismissed the students and an ash cop took them to their living area.
'I was expecting one of the spoiled brat nobles to make a disrespectful comment, but unfortunately, I couldn't get a scapegoat.' Throughout his talk, Major Reeves had been paying attention to the expression and comments made by the students, especially the nobles. To his utmost surprise, their facial expressions were unchanging and no one had made a single sound.
It made him begin wondering if the school had become a military camp, but he had no idea that they had an instructor who was scarier than anyone in the ash corps.
…
'I never realized that the wall was this huge.' After the debriefing from Major Reeves, the students had gotten the chance to enjoy the splendor of the landscape and the magnificence of the city wall.
The length of the southern wall stretched for more than 100 km, while the width was enough for 10 people to stand side by side. The height of the city wall was 100 meters tall and made use of lifts placed at intervals to transport people to the top and back.
When they finally got to the ground, they boarded very large stagecoaches powered by mana to get to the living area in a few minutes.
When they alighted, the students saw nothing but 4 dimensional tents already set up in an open area. That was when most of the nobles began complaining about the tents.
The dimensional tents were quite ordinary, inside each was 2 sections meant to separate both genders, but to also keep them together as a team.
The problem here was that they weren't as luxurious as the ones they were used to. A major example was the bunk beds instead of double beds.
