Chapter 5 - basic education[2]

The lieutenant started checking everyone's results. After about 5 minutes, the lieutenant came and started talking.

"I liked a few of your results, but not everyone was good.Here is your ranking and number of shots:

Derek:15

Arthur:13

Ryan:13

Jin:12

Jack:11

Smith:11

Noah:11

Oliver:9

James:9

Alger:3

For most of you the results are amazing even though it is your first time trying it.During the 3-month training, your goal is to shoot 20/20."

Carl spoke, looking at the alger.

"Your results may be bad but don't worry, you have 3 months.I think you can handle it with a little effort.If you fail within 3 months, you will train with me for 1 month as a follow-up."

The lieutenant's last words sent shivers down the spines of everyone present. Who would want to work with him alone? They thought that if someone wanted to commit suicide, they could go to the lieutenant.

The lieutenant spoke, looking into Alger's eyes.

"Do you know what you have to do, soldier?"

"Yes sir"

Carl took his eyes off the alger. After talking to the staff on duty, we followed behind him again.

********

They were following the Derta-39 lieutenant to their next target.When they reached their destination, a large square greeted them.It was big enough to fit at least hundreds of soldiers.B Lots of equipment, targets, dummies, weapons and lots of other stuff.

They followed the lieutenant to a suitable place.Many people were training with each other.When the lieutenant found a suitable place, he turned around and opened his mouth.

"I know you're wondering why you train to fight, even if you have no chance against demons and other creatures except with weapons.Other races are not the only enemies. There are traitors and puppets among us too.It is your responsibility to stop the rebellion and in many cases the normal population.And outside the city you are also expected to help the guards and provide them with any support you can.The biggest threat creatures, I will tell you about them briefly.The beings we call creatures are a species called grods.Most of them have no intelligence. All they know is to destroy.Even demons fear them.Grods are divided into three:

Level 1: newborn grods

Level 2:Grods lived for 1 year

Level 3: Grods lived for five years

Level 4:Grods lived for 50 years

Level 5: ages unknown.

The only way to tell them apart is by the red rubies on their heads.The longer they live, the stronger they become.Normal people can beat Level 1 ones.Level 2 requires hundreds of normal soldiers.Requires assistance from Level 3 guards.Level 4 and 5 ones are in human form, but it is the rubies that break them differently.You have no chance against them The only way is for a powerful guard to kill them.This is where your goal comes into play. While the guards defeat the strong ones, you hold back the level 1-2 ones.You never know when they will attack, so you must always be ready.Their origins are unknown, so they are even more frightening than demons.The greatest fear of a human being is the unknown.If you encounter something you don't know, run away as much as possible so you have a chance to live.In the next tutorial I will teach you fighting techniques styles that everyone can use."

Lieutenant Carl pointed to the stream after the explanation.

"Derek, come on the field."

"Yes sir"

Derek went onto the field without hesitation.Lieutenant Carl spoke again before leaving.

"This technique, which you follow well, will be fundamental for you."

Carl stood facing Derek and took his stance.Derek also took a stance of his own.Carl clenched his fists and assumed a boxing stance.He started walking slowly and then suddenly sped up.Derek positioned himself to avoid being punched But it didn't work.Carl suddenly sped up and tried to strike with his fist, but pulled his fist back and was hit hard in the side of his stomach with his other fist.Derek took a few steps back after taking the punch.He tried to take a stance again, not paying attention to the place where he was hit.Carl liked Derek's attitude. The way he quickly recovered from the blow he received made him smile.Derek got goosebumps when he saw Carl's smile.Derek pulled himself together again.

'ha.ha...ha..huh'

Derek lay on the floor, breathing steadily.Carl showed Derek a lot of moves over the course of 10 minutes.Everyone who watched this whole scene felt a chill inside them.Because the entire time, the lieutenant had a sadistic smile on his face.Lieutenant Carl looked at the stream on the ground and smiled again and spoke.

"You are truly amazing.The previous recruits couldn't even stand me for 5 minutes, but you stood me for 10 minutes. You definitely have a determination to be admired."

He held out his hand to Derek.Derek stood up, taking Carl's hand.He thanked him, asked permission to take his place and left.Derek had many thoughts running through his mind, but he couldn't express them.

The lieutenant looked at the stream as it went, and then resumed his serious stance.

"Everyone find a partner and practice the movements.Derek, rest today, you've been beaten enough."

Derek nodded.

"The last person will work with me for today."

Everyone became a sparring partner with the person next to them or someone they knew.Those who chose their partners went to the field and started working.Alger looked around silently and then at the stream.The last person was Alger.Derek looked at him apologetically.Carl looked at the alger and motioned for him to follow.Before Alger left, he took one last look at Derek and followed the lieutenant.Even the streets couldn't kill him, but Alger felt he was going to die.
