Chapter 84
84 Reaching Korin City
Inside the file that Cain sent, there was a thorough description of the role everybody would take. It left nothing to chance, and there were all sorts of backup plans and contingencies. There were even secondary roles they would take in case someone was hurt so no flaw would arise in the battle formation.
The file also contained diagrams that made it easier for everybody to understand the battle formation and get familiar with it.
No matter how much Lurin analyzed the battle formation, he could not find any flaw or way to improve it. There was also no favoritism in it, as Levi and Cain would be taking the lead, facing the greatest danger, which made sense as they were Astral Wave Warriors.
As for Lurin’s role, he would be at the back of the formation, which was neither bad nor good. He would not face much pressure during most battles but would have to remain on high alert to avoid sneak attacks. And if they needed to retreat, it would be his job to lead their way through the enemies on their back, a fitting role for a Level 3 Wave Warrior with robust defenses.
Lurin saw how the cadets that came with him looked at Cain with awe and respect. He had battle skills that could kill a Level 3 Wave Warrior and was also a master strategist. What was there not to admire?
Lurin was not narcissistic or stupid enough to reject the battle formation just because it did not come from him. He turned toward Cain and gave a deep nod before closing his eyes.
Cain returned the nod and did not care about the gazes the other cadets were showing him, as he knew there was no reason to feel proud about it. He was not a master strategist, and the one that truly came up with the battle formation was the Absolute Life Form System.
He used the [A.I. Chip Module] to scan everybody when they entered the military truck. That, plus the information they shared, was enough to generate several simulations of different battle formations.
Cain just picked up the best that adapted to their team and sent it. That is why he closed his eyes when Lurin began talking about battle formations.
.....
Now that everybody was aware of the abilities of their teammates and had a way to work together, silence returned to the military truck. The cadets either studied Cain’s battle formation or revolved their Wave, ensuring they would be in perfect battle condition.
