The rest of the hour passed, and they finally landed, but instead of landing in a barren area, they instead landed in a small camp with several military soldiers walking around and doing their jobs.

"Why are there people here?" Lloyd asked.

"This is where you\'ll return after you\'re done with your mission or if you\'re severely injured. They have a teleporter here to the main base on this planet. We can\'t put a teleporter from here to the academy until we secure a good portion of the planet." He explained with a shrug.

\'So we\'re cannon fodder, huh... They say it\'s an experience, but in reality, they want to see if it\'s safe to put a teleporter here in case of a significantly powerful monster on this planet.

It\'s clever, but it also explains why they didn\'t bring the X and E groups. The foundation years would just be in the way, while the X group is far too valuable to lose on a small mission like this.\' Lloyd concluded.

"You\'re here?" A man wearing a full black military uniform and with three badges on his chest walked up to Lloyd\'s group while analyzing them.

From top to bottom.

"So these are the kids? We have your combat uniforms ready for you in that tent." He pointed toward a tent in the distance.

"Can\'t we just change our uniforms into battle clothes?" John asked.

"Well, those ones in there are a little better." The man shrugged. He was only doing as his orders told him to.

They all entered the tent and looked at the rings on the table with their names engraved into them.

Lloyd took the ring and wore it before a hologram appeared before him.

Tapping on one of the windows, Lloyd\'s watched as the clothes within the ring replaced his own.

They were slightly different from their normal academy clothes, as if they had adapted to the people wearing them.

Lloyd wore a cloak/long coat instead of a normal military jacket. It was the same color as his previous jacket and had the academy\'s insignia on it.

He could feel that his pants were a little more freeing than before, while two sheaths lay on his hip, one with a katana and the other with a dagger.

It felt a little like his adventurer\'s uniform but without the mask and cheap clothes. He also had some light armor underneath that seemed to have replaced his shirt.

Unlike in the past, Armor could not be made compact and light despite the use of magical metals that would have usually made it impossible for non-body cultivators to wear them.

Looking at the other, Lloyd was impressed.

Haley\'s jacket had turned into a mage\'s robe, and instead of wearing a skirt, she wore tights with knee-high boots.

Derek\'s clothes were very similar to Lloyd\'s, yet instead of using a katana or dagger, his staff was strapped to his back.

The staff had two weights on the bottom and top, making them thicker than the rest.

The two from the D group had basic clothes. One had light armor on his as well as a sheath on his hip with a sword on it, while another had very light clothes with a small gun at his hip.

"You guys done?" Alex asked as they walked through the tent.

No one answered.

"L-Lets go then." He stuttered before walking toward the exit of the camp.

Once they began walking through the forest, they fell into silence. Lloyd wasn\'t too worried. The planet was considered a first commandment, but there was a chance that the monsters within might have evolved over time.

There weren\'t nearly enough intelligent species on the planet to make it vulnerable to dungeons of a higher caliber.

\'I wonder if that\'s how life came to be on earth. A dungeon just broke on a dead planet on a random day, and over billions of years, they evolved to adapt to their environment.\' Lloyd thought before his sense caught something in the distance.

"Something\'s coming." Lloyd spoke, making even Alex narrow his eyes.

"What do you mean? Nothing is-" Before Alex could finish speaking, Lloyd had covered himself in lightning and shadows before flickering from where he stood and appearing several meters away.

Appearing right above some kind of wolf creature that barely had enough time to look up at him, Lloyd spun mid-air and swung his blade. In an instant, the wolf\'s head was detached from the rest of its body, causing it to down limply.

Lloyd quickly scanned the creature with his watch before taking it into his ring.

Alex has explained how the rings didn\'t store anything inside them; they simply teleported the monsters to the main base on the planet as long as they were dead.

The stronger the monster, the more points they would gain. The conditions are the same for the uniqueness of the monster, and whether or not you\'re the first person to find it.

\'Late first commandment... Nice.\' Lloyd smiled before walking toward the rest of his group, who had their mouth\'s slightly open, even Derek.

"What?" Lloyd asked, making all of them turn away in embarrassment, except Haley, who made sure Lloyd heard her sneer.

***

By this point, everyone had gotten to the planet and were on one side of the planet. Some were on the darker sides, while the rest, like Lloyd, were on the side of the planet that had daylight.

However, even though all the creatures on the planet were usually between the first and second commandments, something lay beneath the planet\'s crust. It opened its eyes for the first time in thousands of years, followed by hundreds of other small creatures who fluttered their eyes open and exposed their red irises.

"I smell... A void walker."
