My Space-Time System

Chapter 300 - Night Shift.

\'Very important question.\' Blake said as all the teams got into position.

"Your night shift will be divided into 2 sections. The 1st is taking you all on a tour of every section of the walls, and the 2nd will be you guys patrolling the walls." Major Reeves announced.

This made everyone turn to each other with confused expressions on their faces, but no one said anything so, major Reeves proceeded with the tour. Since they were at the center of the southern wall, they walked for a few minutes before they got to a very long and large staircase that led all the way to the bottom of the wall.

Although they were multiple elevators that transported people up and down the wall, there were still stairs in case they were destroyed or weren\'t functioning well.

Without saying a word to the students, Major Reeves began walking down the stairs until he reached what could be considered half the height of the wall.

\'Why do new things keep appearing out of nowhere?\' Blake asked when he saw a large automatic double sliding door.

Blake had gone through the southern gate multiple times but had never seen the doors, the elevators, or even the stagecoach.

[They had always been there, but they were being concealed by arrays from the view of the public. That is until the beast tide.] The system stated.

The double doors slid open and once the students got in, they saw a room filled with different magic devices, but the ones that stood out were the mana cannons facing the wall.

Blake had read a lot about them and knew almost everything about them, that is except for the process of making them.

The mana cannons had similar designs to large-caliber cannons back on Earth and were pitch black, but with futuristic looks and functions.

As the name implies, the mana cannons were powered by mana crystals or directly pumping mana into them. They were designed to be able to switch between various types of attacks ranging from explosive to highly penetrative single attacks and they also had an automatic targeting system.

When it came to raw power, they had the destructive force of a peak Hero realm spell and the best part of it was that the element of the attack was dependent on the type of mana put into the cannon.

\'They look more aggressive seeing them in person.\' Blake had a mesmerizing expression written all over his face.

[It was really smart of them to choose to pump mana from the core to cannons, rather than carrying mana crystals all around.] The system was impressed.

This method of powering the cannons was the best because they could instantly and simultaneously change the elements of the attacks to whatever was needed at the moment.

"This is one of the 3 cannon chambers. Every inch of the wall can be controlled to open up or close at any given, thereby giving the cannons space to attack the beasts and also protect them from getting destroyed." Major Reeves explained to the team before leading to the other 2 floors below, before returning to the top of the wall.

After seeing the 3 cannon chambers, Blake began doubting if he really knew how serious the beast tide was. He knew about the power of each of the mana cannons, but in each cannon chamber, the number of magic cannons stretched across the length of the wall of the entire southern wall.

If they had soo much artillery and were still pressured by the beast tide, it meant that it was more serious than what the book had described.

"Any questions related to the tour?" Major Reeves asked.

Even if they had a question, no one wanted to ask especially after what he had done in the afternoon, but that was except for Blake.

"Yes?" The Major granted Blake permission to speak.

"You showed us 3 cannon chambers, but the length of the city wall is enough for a 4th room. So I was wondering if you could tell us what room is above the 1st cannon chamber we entered." Blake asked.

"Very good observation. The room above the 1st cannon room is the room for Mini magic towers, but that would be for another day." Major Reeves said. "Now for the second part of your night shift…"

Each team was to be assigned to patrol a certain distance of the wall with an ash corp. Their jobs were to notify the ash corps when they spotted beasts, and after that, they were to keep observing the beasts to eliminate all chances of being surprised.

They didn\'t get them any points, and the students weren\'t happy about it, but it wasn\'t as if they could complain about it, talk more of doing something about it.

After explaining the task to all the teams, Major Reeves went back to his original position and stared into the forest even though it was pitch black.

As for the students, ash cops had taken them to their different positions on the walls.

The assigned area wasn\'t too large, but it was large enough to prevent them from gathering together in one spot. So, some teams decided to patrol the area in 2\'s to enable them to chat.

As for Blake\'s team, they spaced themselves out, eliminating the need for them to move around but this prevented them from chatting or so the ash cop thought.

The trio were currently in a full-blown argument in the mind link on the best assassin hero in lords of legends.. As for Luciano and Tessie, they had no one to chat with, but that was because they both had a lot on their minds and didn\'t feel like chatting with anyone.
