?
Marcus leaned back in his chair, glancing at the monitor in front of him. "Well, folks, it looks like the Reapers are taking a short breather. While they catch their breath, why don't we check in on the others?"
The camera feed shifted, revealing the White Comets huddled around a holographic map, having a conversation.
"Oh, what do we have here?" Elena asked. "It seems the White Comets are now working out a plan of their own."
Marcus nodded, a touch of skepticism in his voice. "Can't blame them. They're currently rock bottom on the leaderboards. Not sure how they ended up there, but if they want any chance at claiming the top spot now, they're going to have to really bust their backs. Though, to be honest, it might already be beyond reach."
"Speaking of the top spot, the Reapers really outdid themselves this year."
"You don't have to tell me twice," Marcus replied with a chuckle. "Last year, they were second, with the Berserkers nearly doubling their score. But it seems this year, the tables have turned."
"Indeed," Elena agreed, leaning forward slightly. "But let's put the Reapers aside for now. The White Comets are where our focus is at the moment. They've got a lot to prove, and it looks like they're gearing up for something big."
...
The White Comet Raid Team prepared for their next move.
Ren glanced at each of them, making sure they were fully focused. He stood before his team, his expression serious as he faced the group.
Behind him, a holographic map of their target area-the well know Sector X-a sector that had still yet to be cleared since the starting of the wasteland display event.
The sector was practically overflowing with powerful monsters, each one seemingly more powerful than the last, and they were even stronger at night.
And it's map, was now in view. The sector was a vast valley known for its dangerous terrain, not exactly raider friendly with it's extreme heat, the occasion magma reaching the surface often made raiders loose their focus mid battle, as they didn't want to burn to death or be shredded to pices by the monsters.
"Alright, listen up," Ren said, his voice calm yet serious.
"I know we already went over the plan..."
"...but since Alister is awake, I'll go through it again."
"Sector X is where we're heading. This valley is notorious for housing some of the most vicious monsters you'll ever encounter. It's an area where even the strongest of teams have perished, not to even mentioned venturing after dark. The monsters here are not only stronger but far more aggressive and unpredictable. We'll be on edge the entire time."
He pointed to the map, which zoomed in to show the various sections of the valley.
"We're targeting this sector for a reason. It's where we'll get the kills needed to raise our score and secure our place at the top. But we need to be strategic, not only is the terrain a real problem, the monsters here vary in type-expect everything from A-rank Ravagers to S-rank Wraith Hounds. They're fast, deadly, and some can even use the environment to their advantage."
Ren pointed to a specific area on the map, an ominous-looking part of the valley.
"This is where we'll be raiding," he said, tracing a path with his finger. "We're starting here on the northern edge, moving south, clearing out every monster we encounter. We'll be sticking together as a team, methodically pushing forward, and tightening our grip on this sector."
The map shifted slightly, and Ren turned to Alister. "Alister, you'll be starting on the opposite side of the valley, over here."
He indicated a location on the southern edge. "Your job is to work your way toward us, summoning both of your dragons-the Dragon Knight and the Drake. As you clear the area, we'll be advancing toward you. The goal is for us to meet at the center. Once we converge, we'll secure the perimeter, making sure no more monsters emerge."
Ren paused, letting his words sink in before he continued speaking. "This is where you're most important, Alister. Your dragons are going to give us the edge we need to dominate this sector, if possible finish your end as soon as possible and even progress towards ours, we might not be able to keep up with all the monsters. So in the event you need to help us, you must be already close by. So I expect you to not hold back. We need you to put on a full display of power."
"Understood." Alister replied calmly.
Razorgrin, who had been listening intently, finally spoke up with a slightly irritated. "So what you're really saying is that Alister's got the edge over the rest of us?"
"That we're gonna need him to save us?"
Ren gave him a steady look, his glasses glinting, his voice firm. "His summons, yes. It would be foolish not to make full use of them. We're a team, and each of us brings something crucial to the table. Alister's dragons are our powerhouses for this raid. They'll clear a path like nothing else can."
"If we don't want to bring shame to Master Yuuto this year, it would be best if we use all that is at our disposal."
As Ren finished laying out the plan, the camera feed broadcasting the event now displayed the commentators seated in their brightly lit studio, their faces a look of shock.
...
"Did I hear that right?" Marcus said, adjusting his earpiece as if he couldn't quite believe the strategy he had just heard. "The White Comets are planning to split up in Sector X? And Alister is going to raid an entire side on his own?"
Elena leaned forward, her brow furrowed. "This is unprecedented! Sector X is notorious for being one of the most dangerous areas in the wastelands. The idea of sending a single raider, even someone as powerful as Alister, to handle an entire section alone... it's risky, to say the
least."
