Shutting down the alarm and opening his eyes, Hans woke up immediately from his sleep with full energy and enthusiasm for a new day. But he remembered something, something that he terribly forgot. Time flied by as he still sitting there on his bed, using up every single cells in his brain but nothing came out.
"Hah....Nevermind. Must be some minority stuff" thought Hans as he continued his usual routines.
He then opened up his PC to do some work before entering the game. But his colleague showed up and sent him an email. Something is wrong, he can feel it coming closer now. He checked it out, read every single word with shiver running down his spine.
"Scheisse....." that's the only word that he could mutter from his mouth because at the end of that day is his DEADLINE.
(Yep, bad news, ladies and gentlemen, Hans will not accompany with us today *sad face*)
*3RD POV IN GAME*
"Alright, boys and girls! Bad news! Our admin will not join in with us today. Poor lad, must be because of those deadlines again. Even though, the plan of the expedition is still a go" The vice admin - our Bri'ish guy - Jackson announced on Discord
"Let me repeat the plan for who weren't present yesterday. With the insufficient amount of people we have here, it's only enough for 8 squadrons with 2-3 people each, they'll do recon missions on all 8 directions. The remaining force will protect the HQ. Note for the recon teams, you see something, you print screen and post it immediately to the recon section I've just created, okay? Now, any question?" he continued
"Uhm....I have one" replied a random guy
"What is it, mate?" Jackson asked
"What if we encounter something? Something such as hostiles"
"Ah....about that, thanks for mentioning, mate. In that situation, if you could take care of them, then do it. If not, retreat at once, and not to forget to have a photo of the so-called hostiles so we can deal with 'em latter."
"Right, anyone else?" he asked again, no one answered
"No? Good, then let's just roll out! Chop Chop! We got a whole new world to explore!"
The plan was carried out latter then, squadrons were divided and started doing their respective missions while the others stayed and protected the home base. After the tense battle the day before, they were all rewarded with some more RP, SL and GE. Now, some of them reach tier III vehicles.
Soon, reports came in as the West, Southwest, South, Southeast and East directions seem to be vast oceanic areas. Except for the others, they are reported to be vast region with all kind of biomes include desert, grassland, forest, plain, snowy mountainous area and came up with a temporary map drawn by one of the member.
The recon teams even live streamed some of the events during the mission. For specific examples, that's when they flied by a massive city located to the Northwest, the first thing they encountered - a civilized area on the plain biome. They soon saw large forest area and villages at the central area (forest to the South, villages to the North of the region where grassland biome located). Some of the villages seem to be fine, while some were seen smoking or even in battle, they are so small that they had to spotted with bomber scope. To the East of the region, where half of it to the North is mountainous, while the other half is dense forest with a giant tree in the center. That tree is so big that it punches through the cloud and its shadow could cover almost the whole forest.
Luckily for all the teams that they flied high enough to not get noticed by any natives and avoid any unnecessary battle. They work nonstop for two days in game to gain all the basic knowledge about the region. Maybe you would ask how could they fly far enough to finish the map? Well, simple, aerial refueling, like some mad lads from 1923.
At the end of the day, Jackson congratulated the teams on completing their missions.
"Gentlemen! Good job on accomplishing the missions as smooth as possible. I thought we were gonna have some troubles. Lads! I'm proud of you guys!" Everybody cheered but then...
"Hello there" a familiar voice showed up
"Hans! Welcome back! How is it going, mate?" Jackson happily replied
"Everything is daijoubu, mate. I managed to finish my deadline on time. Not gonna lie, my job is just a pain in the aaaaasssssss."
"Then why don't you consider changing your career?"
"If I did, I wouldn't be here with you guys and die in poverty long ago. Do you want me to be like that, jackass?"
"Hehe, sorry, you're right. But seriously, next time, don't let thing happen like today again"
"Okay! I won't!"
"You're always say it like that and the same thing happen again"
"Yeah yeah yeah.....By the way, what did I miss?"
"Well, we have a map and everything need to know about the region to the North of our island now"
"Wow.....We really did some progress, huh? So what's our next move?"
"Uhm....I'm planning on...."
"Hewo!" a voice interrupted them
"Ach Scheisse, jetzt geht es wieder los" Hans signed
"Yo! Privet! Ciao!" It was our old friends! James the weeb, Tommy in da hood, Ivan the comrade and Leo *Italian hand gesture*
"You guys are still awake?" Hans asked
"Yup! So do you, Hans" Tommy replied
"Okay! What's the deal?" asked Leo with tiredness
"I was gonna say that we are planning on building a forward operation base on the region. And chose to build it on the central forest area. Why? We can easily gain access to other parts of the region. Besides, I believe the area's only full of monsters which we can wipe them out like we did on our island. The plan will be occurred in two more days. I'm tired of all the work I did today." Jackson explained
"It's okay, mate. I'm too burn out after the deadline, I also need some rest." Hans yawned as he said
"Is this like a big operation? Have anybody name it?" James asked with excitement
Silence occurred

"How about the Second D-Day?!"
