Chapter 34: Off to a new planet
In the middle of the room, was a portal that was colored green. Green indicated that at the other side, there were only basic tier beasts or rarely intermediate beasts but that rarely happens. While the orange color, indicates that on the other side were intermediate and advanced beasts. While the red portal leads to the planets with King tier and Legendary beasts. This red portal, was only for military personnels to use because they didn\'t want any students death on their hands.
The entire first-year students were all lined up in front of General Paul while two sergeants were on either side of the students row.
Jake suspected that they were the sergeants that were gonna be with them and protect them Incase of an emergency. Jake recognized one of the sergeant because he was sergeant Lee the combat training teacher while the second one, Jake didn\'t really know who he was but if he was with them, he is surely a sergeant.
"Alright boys and girls," Paul said. "I have to inform you of some things before you go into the portal so listen up. You won\'t be able to communicate with each other with your wristwatches because it will be down. But don\'t worry, you can still buy things with your credits on your watch and know that It is very important when entering through the portal, you keep physical contact with the person in front of you otherwise you will be teleported to somewhere else."
The students all looked at each other and then nodded understanding what Paul said.
"Also, you will be teleported to somewhere safe that the military has a hold on, it is called military shelter. The shelter is built far away from any dangerous beast zone so the shelter is totally safe. The hunt, is gonna last a week, and the goal is to bring back as many beast crystals as you can. Don\'t worry, you will be given back some of the crystals to craft your beast weapons after your score has been recorded."
"Also, if you see an intermediate beast, then you need to run away. Don\'t confront it, just head off to a different location. Inside the shelter, there is a storage room monitored by military personnels. You will be given adequate equipment, communication device for you and your team and other things. Lastly before you all go in, you will be given thirty minutes to all decide who will be your team\'s leader. Hurry up."
Immediately Paul finished talking, the whole different teams huddled up trying to pick who will be suitable for their team as a leader. Even Jake\'s team were also doing the same.
"Who should we pick?" Jake asked.
"Before we choose someone, we need to consider some qualities." Sophia said. "The team leader needs to be smart, brave, strong and has a good sense of judgement."
"Well who should it be then?" Vynn asked.
"How about Kate?" Cindy asked while smiling at her to which Kate returned it with a glare.
"Huh? I was gonna nominate Sophia." Jake said to which Kate was now looking at him with an eye of sadness and at the same time annoyance.
"I also agree with Jake." Vynn said.
"Hey! Who says the leader has to be a female." Peter said.
"Well it\'s because we are calm unlike you guys." Cindy commented.
"And don\'t also forget that they are hot-headed." Kate added.
"In what way have we been hotheaded?" Jake asked.
"Do you want me to remind you about your duel with Sebastian and it was what got us Into that situation the other day." Sophia said.
"Okay, I\'m convinced." Jake said.
"So now the nomination is between you and Kate." Jack said. "Anyway I give my vote to Kate."
"I also give my vote to Kate." Cindy said.
"Well I give my vote to Sophia." Jake said.
"I also give my vote to Sophia." Vynn said. "Peter what about you?"
"I nominate Kate." Peter said.
"In that case, the leader has been chosen which is Kate." Jack said.
Immediately, that was when Paul clapped loudly to get the students attention. "Will the team leaders of each team please step forward." To which they did then Paul gave them a little communicator.
"This is linked to the sergeants watches, so when you see a beast you can\'t handle, push the button there and it will alert the sergeants." Paul said while dismissing them back to their teammates. "Alright with that said and done, it\'s time for you to go into the portal."
With that said, each team stepped forward with all of them holding onto the shoulders of the person in front. Then finally it got to Jake\'s team\'s turn. As they went through the portal, they all felt a tingling sensation all over their bodies. The world around them started to warp and displace and their minds felt like it was melting. It wasn\'t really a horrible feeling, in fact to some, the feeling of traveling into the portal felt addicting.
A few moments, they already made it to their destination. When they opened their eyes, they were surrounded by some townsfolks and a lot of military personnels chatters and all sorts. Rows of buildings and shops, market stalls selling food and weapons. They had successfully made it to the shelter. And the team couldn\'t wait to start hunting.
