Chapter 579 Academy, Here We Come~
Letters come, letters go. Who would have thought their acceptance letters would come in this fashion? Do you accept the invitation? Of course they do! Better to have power than to be a sitting duck on the day the big war begins. Surprisingly, over 70% passed the test, but the rest sadly failed. However, they understood that this was the so-called fate their superiors spoke of. Of course, even if they failed, it didn\'t mean they had no part to play in the upcoming war. Several of them were assigned to keeping an eye on any suspicious individuals in the army, police forces, Navy, Marines, and whatnot. Understand that now, they must go back to the barracks and act like nothing truly major happened. And then, they would report matters to their superiors every week or so. Know that their superiors were accepted as Elders… and only elders had permission to communicate with the outside world while in the sect. It\'s just that the system has ensured that the signal will never be able to be picked up. How do you find a location that is masked and protected by one of the strongest beings in all existence, who was lazy lying about in the heavens? Don\'t underestimate the System\'s Master. They will be able to communicate with their superiors. However, it will only be once a week. The rules of the sect must be adhered to at all times. Of course, if there\'s an emergency in the outside world that needs their attention, these elders can communicate more than once to the outside world. In the end, several people rushed back home, and were even given 3 days to see their loved ones before returning to the designated barracks/police stations, and so on, for inspection and a long debriefing. Only, they would be using codewords for their debriefing, in case some unknown creatures were listening in on them. Well, one might only think they were going for 3 month or even 4 month missions sanctioned by their leaders, involving drug lords, kingpins, kidnappers… you name it. As for those who failed, their tasks were more than fat from over. They were also tasked to head out and snoop the cities, towns and suburbs or any suspicious activities. Everyone must now remain high in alert, and not trust even the simplest people around them. Are you kidding them? Didn\'t you hear from one of those people in the East about how they were rescued by these academy people from the heads of elderly people who looked weak and feeble? Do you know that these monsters can even disguise themselves like the elderly too? Oops… they felt they were even scared of the stray cats running about in the alleyways. Well, forget about the cast in the alleyways. Even the cats and dogs at home now gave them a sense of fear. Can you believe that they started peeping at their pets, like children peeping at toys after watching Toy\'s Story? … In a flash, the day had finally come. Several people woke up 4 hours before departure time, preparing and going over the rules again and again. Today, the birds seemed to be whistling quite louder than usual. The skies were dull, as the sun had yet to peer its warm rays on the land. "Attention!" Several people stood with their arms placed behind their backs and their legs now spread apart. "Step forward for checks!" The order was simple. Several people did as told, and had their clothes searched right now to their privates by female and male searchers. "Anyone found with items not on the list, will have to answer to me!!!" Several leaders squinted their eyes dangerously when sweeping their gazes across the gathering. Such a scene unfolded in every major corner of the world. This was not a joke, neither was it a drill.
After body searches were done, they were then called one by one and given their bags that were properly searched over 5 times now. Soon, the time was up. Only 1 hour left before their scheduled time to enter the academy.
"Move, move, move, move!" Several people ventured into seemingly ordinary school buses that didn\'t cause a buzz or raise alarms for civilians on the streets. By now, the sun was up, and the streets were buzzing with people going about their businesses. Tchhh~~
The static noise from the walkie-talkies from the drivers echoed out. [This is Beta 034, proceed as usual. Everything\'s clear.] n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The voice told them to keep using the route they planned, as several others were stationed on the path they chose to take. In fact, the streets around the targeted locations, as well as the buildings there, were all filled with undercover police officers and military personnel. These were those who didn\'t pass the tests, but still knew of the impending dangers in today\'s world. At least for them, they quickly bought several protective charms and pendants to secure their safety while in this mundane world. These people readily accepted their fate of not being accepted because even in the army and the police force, not everyone could be a Special Forces Soldier, not everyone could be a Special Officer, not everyone can climb right up to the top. Know that although a majority can\'t reach these positions, they understood that the roles of those below these positions were equally important too. For the greater good, everyone\'s job was important! (*^*)
