Stimulated further by the main task set by the academy – two opposing camps

(the enemy wants to do, you want to destroy),

The conflict between the two camps spiked.

Not only would they fight on sight. 𝐟reew𝗲b𝐧𝚘𝐯𝐞l.c𝚘m

More and more people like Elise Clark, put the camp missions aside, to deal with the hostile camps.

As long as I kill all the enemies, I consider it a success.

Without completing a camp mission, without successfully saving or destroying the world, it’s just a slight downgrade in rating.

It’s not a big deal at all.

Soon, the Lanny Taylor team which was also preparing to transition came out of the mountain stream.

“You take the lead.”

Seeing Link’s face, Lanny immediately took a stand.

Either do it or don’t at all.

Having given up the idea of independently completing her main task and planning to leverage Link Grande’s strength, Lanny would not flip flop easily.

Even if she has any emotions, she would keep them to herself.

“If any of you are insincere, verbally agreeing to follow the commander’s orders but not doing your part, don’t blame me for kickingyou out of the team.”

Lanny not only made her position clear to Link, but she also turned around and warned her team members very seriously.

Whether this was sincere or just for show, there was nothing much for Jasmine, who was looking for faults originally, to say.

“Yes.”

“No problem.”

“Settled.”

The five members of the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association” responds quite neatly, the other five members from the other apprentice organizations were more scattered.

Even with the teams only one person apart in members, there were discernible differences, or even a gap between them.

Lanny Taylor was lacking in terms of her team1 s cohesiveness.

Link observed Lanny’s performance throughout the process and had mixed feelings about her.

While he was a bit wary of her, he mostly admired her.

Not all people in their early teens are able to read the situation accurately and adjust their strategy according to direction of the wind.

Nor can everyone, disregarding age, adjust their mentality promptly, shifting from resistance to cooperation.

This transition, if put nicely, is called surrender; if not, it’s defecting to the enemy.

In turn, Link didn’t simply take over Lanny’s team.

Instead, he appointed Lanny as the deputy leader, in charge of leading her

original team.

This arrangement, accomplished a lot of things.

What specifically, would not be detailed further.

After the two teams merged, the first problem was deciding which direction to move towards.

Link has already made a decision, but he still employed a democratic spirit, roughly drew a few strokes on the ground, outlining the terrain within 30 miles.

Pointing to a basin not too far away from here, bordered by a river on one side, mountains on two sides with a pass between the mountains as the only entrance and exit, he said:

“I plan to move here and construct our base and defense lines, then observe the situation and adjust the response strategy according to the change in the situation. What do you think? If you have any different views, suggestions or advice, don’t hesitate to speak.”

Having said that, Link looked at Lanny Taylor.

Lanny glanced at the terrain map, compared it with the terrain layout that she remembered, and found that indeed the place chosen by Link was a good spots.

It was easy to defend and hard to attack, it was not inferior to the mountain stream behind them.

The question is, has such a good spot not be occupied by others yet?

She immediately said, “It’s a good place, if not occupied by others, I agree.”

After that, no one else spoke.

Because Lanny Taylor hit the nail on the head.

The rest were just minor details, not important.

Link explained,” I scouted last night and didn’t find any traces of human activity, I don’t know the current situation now, we can only keep bouncing.’ Upon receiving Elise’s private message last night, Link immediately prepared to change location of the encampment.

He scouted several potential encampments and finally found the mountain basin to be the most suitable one.

After a pause, Link emphasised, “No matter what, this place has already been discovered, we can’t stay here any longer.”

As soon as the conversation ended, having unified their thoughts, they immediately set off.

Both teams didn’t proceed together, they separated into a front and back team, advancing in an “I” formation, scanning the area as they went.

Even though there were Flying Spheres overhead and four Reconnaissance Puppets around, along with the Reconnaissance Magic Tools that Lanny Taylor had managed to get from somewhere else, Link still dared not to slacken. Having experienced Tracey Lucia’s remote bombardment and witnessing Elise Clark’s dive bombing, Link deeply understood the concept of beyond- visual-range warfare.

If he slackened even a little bit, and was discovered by others before noticing,

He’d be greeted with ruthless bombardment.

Perhaps Link could survive the bombardment using the “Defender 3202” suit, the life-saving magic tool, and the flexible application of the Water Shield

Spell.

But for others, including Jasmine who was also equipped with a “Defender 3202” suit, they would all be “killed” on the spot.

The defense of the suit was not the issue.

The weakness lies in the physical strength of the Wizard Apprentices, their ability to withstand impact, and their defensive ability.

If he has to devise an attacking plan now, he would most likely start with impact and vibration.

Link wouldn’t be so arrogant as to think that only he could understand this. Otherwise, why would a person as rich as Elise have an inexhaustible supply of advanced self-destructing fire thunders in her pouch?

They advanced carefully along the way, avoiding when they could, and skirting around whenever possible.

In a nutshell, one principle was to avoid accidents.

But then, as they were about to reach the mountain basin, an accident still happened.

Two teams of people looking a bit disheveled, and who were slightly in a mess had already entered the basin first.

It looked like they were preparing to rest here.

At the same time Link noticed them, they obviously also noticed Link and his group.
