Chapter 10 - The Third Training Ground

Early the next morning, Phainon had already gotten up and washed up. At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and a familiar voice came through.

"Phainon, Phainon, don't sleep anymore, the sun is already high! ♪"

After wiping his face with a towel, Phainon opened the door for Elysia.

"Oh, my! You're already awake? I thought you were still sleeping! ♪"

"Even if I were still sleeping, your commotion would have woken me up, and you probably already knew I was awake."

Elysia didn't respond, she just smiled and brought up another matter.

"Your identity has been settled. Next, you just need to meet a few more people and sign a document, and you'll officially be a part of Moth Chasing Fire."

Phainon was a little puzzled. It seemed to him that Moth Chasing Fire was a very large organization, yet entering such a vast organization was so simple.

Perhaps seeing Phainon's confusion, Elysia explained with a smile.

"Don't underestimate Mobius. Although she is only a researcher, she is also considered a veteran figure of Moth Chasing Fire. Just letting someone join a combat squad is not a big deal and doesn't require notifying other high-ranking officials at all."

"Alright, let's not talk so much. Today, I mainly wanted to take you to meet the other members of the combat squad."

"After all, you'll be partners from now on, and there will be a party tonight. Phainon, you mustn't miss it, otherwise, I'll be sad! ♪"

Phainon nodded and agreed, but still asked curiously,

"You said you had a way to get me back to my original world. Is that true? How long will it take?"

When Elysia heard this question, her expression became a bit strange. Phainon didn't understand it, but he always felt that Elysia seemed to be hiding something from him.

"Let's go, I'll tell you as we walk."

"Actually, this method won't be able to send you back to your original world in a short time. You should already know that the Second Herrscher's authority is space, and every Herrscher has their own core, and the core also possesses that Herrscher's ability."

"To send you back to your original world, we need to use this core as a foundation to create a device, a device that can cross space. However, as you can see, our world doesn't have this capability yet."

"But Phainon, you don't need to be too anxious. I don't think there should be any major problems in your world."

Listening to Elysia's explanation, Phainon was still quite worried, but he could only do as Elysia said.

Elysia and Phainon walked towards the training ground. After all, at this time, if nothing unexpected happened, the combat squads guarding this town should be training.

After all, the Great Eruption doesn't only happen in one place; it appears all over the world. It's not just when Herrschers appear that the Great Eruption occurs; even without Herrschers, small-scale Great Eruptions can still happen.

And to quickly resolve small-scale Great Eruptions without being noticed by ordinary people, heavy firepower weapons certainly cannot be used. Those small-scale Great Eruptions can also be resolved by their specially trained squads.

Similarly, when the Great Eruption arrives, their squad will also undertake the task of evacuating residents and eliminating residual Honkai Beasts.

Not long after, the two arrived in front of a door. On this door, 'Third Training Ground' was clearly written.

Only after the two pushed open the door did Phainon truly realize the value of the words 'Training Ground'.

Not to mention the various facilities inside, just the vast space alone was spectacular enough.

Below, it was divided into several areas: the training rooms on the very edge, the shooting range for practicing marksmanship, and a little closer to the center was the track, a track that circled the entire training ground.

And the facilities around the center, although Phainon didn't understand what they were for, he imagined they were also part of the training.

But in the very center was a place that looked like an arena, an arena made of special alloy, with a large space on top, feeling like something for the team members to entertain themselves with.

Phainon's hands were itching now, wanting to go up and try every kind of training.

Elysia had naturally been paying attention to Phainon's expression from the beginning and saw his eager look. She chuckled twice and said,

"Alright, you'll have plenty of opportunities to train later, but for now, let's go find our team members! ♪"

Phainon nodded and didn't refuse, quietly following Elysia, but his eyes still lingered on the various equipment, watching how the squad members used them. This made Phainon feel an uncomfortable itch in his chest, like a cat scratching.

Elysia led Phainon to her squad's training area, smiled, clapped her hands, and pulled out a small megaphone from who knows where.

"Alright, everyone, stop what you're doing and come over. I have an announcement."

The training members, turning their heads in confusion, saw that it was their captain. Without hesitation, they put down their equipment or firearms, came and stood in a line in front of Elysia, quietly waiting for their captain to speak.

Phainon looked at the team members. There were men and women, 8 people including Elysia, and with himself, it was about 9 people.

Elysia reached out and began to introduce the new member of the squad. Phainon didn't speak, he just stood quietly, while also observing the team members.

"This is Phainon. From today onwards, he will be a member of our team. Don't let his delicate appearance fool you; his strength is unquestionable. I hope everyone can get along well."

Elysia briefly introduced Phainon, and the team members were very supportive, applauding. Some had happy expressions, while others were indifferent.

However, no one doubted Phainon's strength. After all, if someone lacked strength, they would certainly be exposed during missions, and no one would joke around with their own life.

"Nothing else. Everyone, continue your free activities! ♪"

After she finished speaking, several team members turned around and continued their training, but a few came up to Phainon and greeted him.

Phainon responded to each of them, and they all became somewhat familiar.

After most of the team members had left, Phainon asked with some confusion,

"Do you usually just train here?"

"Not at all. There are a total of 6 such special squads like ours. Our usual task is to clear out those small Great Eruptions."

"But each time we clear a Great Eruption, one squad needs to guard the branch, and this time it just happens to be our Second Squad."

"However, the First Squad should also be returning soon. Oh, by the way, the captain of the First Squad is Hen, and they are the strongest squad among us."

"As for the other squads, you'll have a chance to meet them later, so there's no rush."

"For the next period of time, you can also freely use the equipment here in the training ground. If there's anything you don't know how to do, you can ask the other team members. They are all very enthusiastic, so don't worry."

"Well then, in that case, I'll see you at the party tonight. Be sure to come!"

After speaking, Elysia skipped out of the training ground. Although Phainon was a little curious about what Elysia would go do, the new things here made him even more curious.
