The Magician Of Sound

Chapter 134 - A Raid?

The next day, Kai went to the school for the sake of reporting his mission and receiving his reward.

Many students were busy with the class while he walked nonchalantly in the corridor. He didn't break any rule since students wouldn't need to come to the school after finishing a mission. In other words, this was his day off.

Michelle could get it instead of him or maybe in a few days. However, this mission would allow him to get into the top 100, giving his group a personal helicopter. The amount of paperwork needed to be dealt with was tremendous, so he decided to come as the leader of Lion Group.

The student council would help him with the paperwork, so no reason for him to be slacking.Â

After walking for a few minutes, Kai arrived in front of the student council room, knocking the door a few times.

*Knock, Knock!*

Kai waited for the response as he heard two people inside. After a few seconds, a male's voice resounded from within.

"Ah, it must be Kai Carter. I have read your message. Please, come in."

"Excuse me." When Kai heard the voice, he opened the door and went inside.

The two people inside were precisely Bryan and Mia, the student council president and his vice.Â

A smile appeared on Bryan's serious face as he greeted Kai, "It's been a while, I guess since you usually come here with Michelle."

"Well, I am the group leader, so I thought I would handle this myself," Kai replied with a genuine concern for Tasha and Michelle.

"Sorry, but there are only two of us here since the other two are in class. We are going to update your group points and ranking in a minute," Mia said while walking toward a table with a stack of papers.

"Yes. Thank you for your help." Kai nodded.Â

"Come here first, so you can check your current ranking." The president waved his hand, telling him to go to his table.

Kai slowly walked toward him.

The president was typing his keyboards before projecting his screen on his table. The screen only had one name.Â

76th Lion Group - 56900 Points

"Your last mission earned you more than twenty thousand points. I will transfer the money after this. If I am not wrong, it is one million or something. This shows the appreciation of the army." The president retracted the screen.

"After all, you have commanded the army bravely. I heard from my father that you are fighting gallantly on the battlefield, taking command of four thousand people, and directing the reinforcement. I would like to thank you for your effort as the military base could be operated like normal again soon enough." Mia added as she walked toward Kai while bringing a few pieces of paper.

"Your Father?" Kai tilted his head in confusion.

"Ah, did he not introduce himself?" Mia lifted her eyebrows before replying. "My father is the commander of the Middle Army, Jack Carr."

*Thud!*

Kai opened his mouth in surprise, remembering what kind of person Jack was. He was utterly speechless. Even after taking a few deep breaths, the words still didn't come to his mind.

"Fufu'¦" Mia chuckled like she expected such a reaction. "What? Do you think we are nothing alike?"

"Ehm'¦" Kai thought for a moment whether to answer with a 'yes' or a 'no.'Â

Without waiting for him, Mia continued, "Haha. No need to be like that. I heard it every now and then. Unlike his free spirit, I am more like my mother. But I could assure you he is a great commander and father."

"Yes. He is indeed a great commander. Without him, the middle army would probably collapse." Kai nodded in agreement. Although he couldn't see it by himself, his ears still recorded the situation in the middle army, and he knew that without Jack, it would be run over by the military beasts.

Mia nodded before discussing the business again. "Since you have officially become the top 100. Your group will receive a personal helicopter'¦ though you will get it from the group that you kick out of the top 100. There are a few things that you need to take care of your personal helicopters.

"It would be great to have personal transportation for the mission, but you also need to take care of the helicopter with care. First, the helicopter couldn't be destroyed, as it would cost a great resource. The pilot has been informed about it too, so he would never go too close to the magical beasts.

"The school would pay for the maintenance, but the fuel would be on your group. Of course, it looks more like a burden instead of an excellent transportation. However, since you have entered the top 100, more difficult missions are available to you. You will get more money and points that way.

"If the helicopter is somehow destroyed, then your group would need to pay it. Before you can pay it, the school or rather the government wouldn't give you another one. Do you have any questions?" Mia finished her explanation.

"There is one. What about the pilot? Do we need to give a share to him?" Kai thought for a moment and said.

"No. The government will pay for them."

"Alright." Kai nodded.Â

"This is the information about the helicopter and all the things you need to know. As for the official form, let's sit there so we can fill it. I will guide you in filling the forms." Mia smiled as she guided him to the couch before handing the forms.

While Kai was filling the form one after another, the president suddenly remembered another thing.Â

"Ah, I almost forgot about this. There is a raid event in the school for the top 100 groups. This is a mandatory mission as well as a joined mission with the military. This can be hard or an easy mission. We, the student council, will also join this mission." The president suddenly interrupted as he walked around the room as he searched for something. "Ah, this is it."

"We have found a nest underground in Quebec, Canada. According to the military, there would be many creatures inside the nest and cohabited with each other'¦ mostly bugs such as ants, termites, earthworms, or even mice.

"According to the scout, the nest was huge with many tunnels and many magical beasts, making it impossible to search the entire nest. There are around five thousand soldiers that will participate in this with an addition of us and another five hundred people from Military School.

"The military wants to train us through this raid. Of course, even though this is training, it would be a real battle. That's why they ask that no groups below the top 100 can participate. This shows how important this mission is.

"Our mission is to exterminate all creatures inside the nest or at least to understand the scale of the nest. I believe your ears are capable of perceiving all those missions, so I am glad that you join the top 100. I believe with your track record, you will also take command of the army'¦ or at least a portion of them."

Kai was astounded, never expecting another big mission after the last war. "How to resign from the top 100? Somehow I don't want to enter this position again'¦"

"Haha'¦ I know how you feel. We, the student councils, also deal with a raid mission like this from time to time. In fact, there will always be at least one raid mission every year. The purpose of this mission is to train the students as well as expand our border."

"..." Kai paused for a moment and sighed. "I feel like another person would certainly make me join this mission."

"Haha'¦ If you are talking about Sir Nathan, he is the leader of this operation."

"Yeah. There is no way he would leave me alone." Kai sighed. Resigning of his fate, Kai asked, "When is it?"

"After the new year, the specific date is still unknown. According to the information, the ant takes fifty percent of the population there, so we are going to attack them in the middle of winter.

"Although ants have a big population and can be seen in various places from spring to autumn, they go into hibernation in the winter. The body temperature of ants changes in response to the atmospheric temperature. In winter, their body temperature falls so greatly that their movements inevitably grow sluggish. Therefore, the military wants to use this chance to attack their base."

"I can understand their reasoning." Kai nodded and looked down, thinking about something.

"Depending on the result, the battle will last from days to weeks. Unless we know that we can't wipe all of them out within a month, the mission would most likely get canceled as the army will take over."

"How big is their tunnel?" Kai asked, wondering how many people would fit inside the tunnels.

"They are coming in different sizes. It's like each species has a different size, so we can't really judge it. Of course, if you are asking about the ant, the hole is around ten meters in diameter. It is pretty big, so we can send around a hundred people at a time."

Kai couldn't picture it with only this information. Knowing that Nathan would most likely invite him to this mission, it would be better to ask him for more information at that time.

He didn't talk about it anymore and continued filling the form.

It took them two hours just to fill the form because he needed to fill at least fifteen pages and some clarifications.Â

After finishing his task, Kai stretched his hands tiredly before saying goodbye to Bryan and Mia.
