Ms. Dolores Tesfaye was still having trouble connecting with her students, which was incredibly frustrating for her because it was obvious that she had no control over the situation. For example, there were numerous locations where dimensional rift cameras appeared, explaining why the academy was holding its evaluation test there.
Now that the exam is over and the main priority is to get everyone out, she is hopeful that the third and fourth years will be able to assist and ensure the safety of those under their care. Guild leaders who were supposed to observe were forced to disperse their forces to save those students. All the drones that were monitoring the area lost signal.
Communication was still being distorted by a powerful energy.
Political rivalry was put aside since this was not the time to make rash decisions that may have killed dozens of people. As soon as the breach opened up near the Southeast Asian forest, China sent one of its guilds, and other countries like Vietnam, Indonesia, and even Russia sent out their forces, really worried about the future safety of the Ethereal warriors.
The international community came together, setting aside their differences, to collaborate and strategize on the best approach to rescue and protect the young Ethereal students. Joint task forces were formed, sharing resources and intelligence, in order to maximize efficiency and ensure a successful mission. It was a true display of global unity in the face of an unprecedented threat.
The first country to reach the location before the sun finally set was Vietnam. After 3 hours, the estimated time was around 8 p.m., as their military cargo Nr.1 Mil Mi-26 helicopter was already flying through the region for scheduled cargo transport. Their seven-team quick response allowed them to establish a small base of operations and begin coordinating with other countries because they were able to effectively communicate.
These seven Vietnamese rangers, who were experts in jungle warfare, easily found the 170 fourth-year students in an open field that looked like a small hill. They were all gathered in a circular formation., and all healers and support-type students were being protected by those who were keen on frontal assault and combat. The students quickly assessed the situation and strategically positioned themselves to ensure the safety of the healers and support them as they waged a defensive battle against hordes of ghouls and evolved hobgoblins.
With their expertise in jungle warfare, they swiftly devised a plan to defend the group from any potential threats, demonstrating their exceptional skills using M107s with armor-piercing bullets.,
The presence of other military helicopters was also heard above their heads, but due to zero visibility and a safe landing location, they could only provide aerial support. With a coordinated effort, the students communicated through their open-channel communication devices, relaying crucial information and coordinating their movements to effectively counter the enemy's attacks.
They utilized their knowledge of close-quarters combat and hand-to-hand combat techniques to swiftly neutralize any ghouls or hobgoblins that managed to breach their refences. Despite the intensity of the battle, the students remained calm and focused, executing their mission with tactical precision and proper coordination both on the ground and in the air.
Even though there were countless monsters in the area they were in, the fourth-year Ethereal students were able to control them and keep 170 of them safe with only minor wounds. The four class representatives, who are known to be fierce rivals, collaborated well and put their rivalry aside to complete the mission.
Their ability to work together and plan strategically was essential in dispatching the low-level monsters and guaranteeing the safety of all 170 people. Even though they were only slightly hurt, all of the class leaders made an effort to help and monitor the other grades that were dispersed throughout the area.
With the assistance of seven Vietnamese rangers, reducing the enemies one by one and coordinating their attacks, by setting a perimeter that the student must not go out, each bullet hits the target's head instantly, killing the Ghoul, but the evolution of hobgoblins was another challenge because their skin was thicker. Even with the use of M107s with armor-piercing bullets, it took more than just firepower to defeat them.
The class leaders quickly realized that they needed a strategic plan to overcome the hobgoblins' thick skin.
They enlisted the help of the Vietnamese rangers to devise a new approach, combining their knowledge of the enemy's weaknesses with the students' determination to protect their peers. Together, they developed a tactic that involved targeting vulnerable areas like the eyes and even aiming at their opened mouths using specialized ammunition, ultimately leading to the successful elimination of the hobgoblins.
Meanwhile, the third year managed to muster enough strength to defend themselves since they were also farther away from the rift; however, they were more concerned about the second year because they were the ones closest to the rift's source and therefore most vulnerable to the high-level monsters that surfaced.
The third year quickly devised a plan to create a diversion and lure the monsters away from the second year, allowing them to regroup and defend themselves effectively. With their combined efforts, they managed to hold off the monsters until reinforcements arrived, ensuring the safety of all students involved in the mission.
Of the 210 third graders, 34 died. Of the remaining 176, they divided their team into three teams, allocating an equal amount of manpower to each. The five strongest students in that grade led the teams, and unlike the seniors, who were rivals, the third-year students were more cooperative and cohesive. They were able to take down a dozen level 25 Trolls and two level 60 Manticores with little loss.
Because the majority of those third-year students came from different countries and nationalities that faced so much turmoil when their home and loved ones were killed by those dimensional monsters, they found solace in each other's company and formed a strong bond. The shared trauma they experienced brought them closer together, creating a sense of camaraderie and understanding among the students.
Sadly, those 34 who died didn't get to witness the fruits of their unity and resilience. However, their memory lives on as a reminder of the strength that can be found in unity, even in the face of unimaginable adversity.
They had formed strong bonds throughout their years together, which made them an effective and cohesive team. Despite their young age, they displayed remarkable strategic thinking and bravery, working together seamlessly to overcome any obstacles that came their way.
Guan Yu already heard the reports directly from Ms. Dolores Tesfaye and quickly sent Bowen Ethereal level 57, Longwei age 35 level 55, Ya Zuo, Guan Yu guard lieutenant age 25, level 42, while his wife Lin Siniang level 34 was their tactical communication head, ensuring that information flowed smoothly between the team members. With their combined skills and trust in each other, they were a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield.
They were still 120 miles from the location, even using the fastest plane on the planet.
Amisha Hartono, sister of Annisha was the only certified pilot capable of getting them there in record time because she could enhance the plane's speed using her unique abilities. With Amisha's expertise, they had a chance of reaching their destination before it was too late. However, they knew that even with their incredible skills and the enhanced plane, the mission ahead would not be an easy one.
Her expertise in navigating treacherous terrains and her ability to push the plane to its limits made her the perfect choice for this mission. As they prepared to save the students, especially Ramiel, the team knew that their success relied heavily on Amelia's piloting skills and their unwavering determination to complete the mission at any cost.
They plan to just deploy in the danger zone by sending a parachute and crash the plane directly into the rift as they carry a 1000-pound magically infused bomb.
The bomb was specifically designed to close the rift and save the students. The team understood the risks involved, but they were willing to sacrifice everything for the chance to bring Ramiel and the others back to safety. And without a runway to land on, it might as well blow up the plane and close the rift.,
Their devices were being influenced as they got nearer the location. Amisha Hartono was foul-mouthed as ever; but that was her personality, she was mad as ever and adding to the anger was her sexual frustration toward her female love, as she ordered the rest to jump off because she would direct the place by autopilot into the rift. But before that, she deployed numerous illuminating devices on the ground.
With the flick of a button, the plane under the belly compartment opened, and three dozen ten-foot poles with strong illuminating crystals on each pole were piled together, just dropping down and plummeting into the ground. The force was so strong that some creatures who were roaming the area were impaled.
They soon all leapt off the aircraft and landed in the busiest monster region, which was teeming with hordes of high-ranking monsters of all varieties and kinds. Heiðrún, Salamanders, Red Cap, Baphitauron, Leontophone, Hobgoblin, Troll, and Manticore The strongest energy signal was found near the river, and the group of ghouls, all of them around level 30, were looking for the leader, but it was not there.
Amisha was smiling, and this was an amazing opportunity to release some frustration by killing many monsters. She looked at her armguard and activated the illuminating crystal poles that were scattered all over the area with an illuminating radius of 2 miles, reaching the closest river where Ramiel was.
The massive explosion from the plane was heard from miles away, causing the ground to shake and sending shockwaves through the surrounding forest. Amisha's heart raced as she realized the magnitude of the explosion, knowing that it would attract even more dangerous creatures to the area.
She quickly assessed her surroundings, preparing herself for what lay ahead with a smile on her face as she could now clearly see the enemy with the help of the light pole crystal, and the explosion behind thei bac was assuring because the rift finally closed.
Surprises from the enemy were now dealt with more easily, giving Amisha, and now they can fight effectively with no more concerns about the monster entering the place.
As they started their relentless assault, the monsters fought back fiercely, putting up a formidable resistance. Despite the overwhelming odds, the group remained determined, knowing that their mission depended on finding and eliminating the leader of these monstrous creatures.
Disappointed by the absence of their target, the four began to hack and slash their way, killing everything in sight, hoping to draw out the leader or any clues that could lead them to its whereabouts.
