Leveling Technology To Save Humanity

Chapter 87: Countermeasures

Chapter 87: CountermeasuresEveryone didn’t know what to say.

They have seen people making spectacles to have time off. But never in their lives had they seen someone who was so opposed to time off that he even began crying.

If anyone walked in now and saw this scene, they would think they were bullying this guy. It wasn’t only Daku who felt this way, but the other injured soldiers who practically cried their eyes out in horror.

’-’

[Everyone else]: Alright, it seems that being kind is now a bad thing?

(cough, cough)

Gort let out a fake cough to calm the situation. "Okay, get up. That’s an ORDER!"

Seeing them rise, Gort took a deep breath. "You will be given 1 week off. We expect to see your reports in 2 days. After which, you will begin your time off. And if you haven’t fully healed by then, you’ll get an additional week off, understand?"

"Sir, yes, sir!"

The bandaged Daku and many others gave deep salutes of acknowledgement before leaving the space.

They were normally obedient, never countering any orders given. But this time, they truly felt anxious. Only when you live here do you know what is at stake with having so much time off.

Daku thinned his lips but stood up to give a deep salute before leaving the space. Before coming here, he and many others felt that having 2 weeks or one a month’s time of vacation was too short. But now, he felt it was too long and unnecessary.

There was never a dull moment in Geldhan village. Don’t get him wrong, the military in itself is an interesting place with excitement at every corner. But he dared to say that Geldhan village was like a mythical world, a gem covered in dust, waiting to be polished.

Things get done here at an astronomical feat.

New buildings get erected, new projects get launched, new assignments issued... you name it.

What more can they say?

...

The bandaged soldiers soon left the space.

’Combat mode, huh?’ Park Fairbang massaged the bracelet in his hand softly. ’Maybe my old bones should start moving around more.’

Despite not being a soldier, Park Fairbang and everyone else in this room had been given such spider bracelets.

As key members of Geldhan village, how dare Gort play with their security? He also hoped for them to grow strong on their own, which was why he gave them military spider bracelets.

Bhahaahhaahha~

Old Larkh laughed excitedly. "What a mesmerizing show. Let’s put the matter of the spider bracelets aside for now. I’m more thrilled by the Mega safety spiders across the woods."

Tenten nodded, "I think their response time was good. They were quick to force the intruders into submission."

Didn’t you see the way these intruders were rushing out of the forest with everything they had? That in itself is a form of submission.

Linty pouted her lips thoughtfully. "Brother Gort, although I’m all for these big spiders, I don’t think we should release them as the first wave of defense."

Although these spider’s did an awesome job, Linty wanted Geldhan village to keep an ace up their sleeves.

For now, they were able to apprehend these intruders and keep the matter of the giant spiders a secret. But what happens in instances when they let one enemy escape?

Until they are ready to tell the world about the flood, Linty felt these giant spiders should always remain hidden.

In fact, they should only show up when they are confident of eliminating or capturing all enemies.

"You have a point," Bunten agreed.

"Yes," Katrina added. "We have to keep some aces up our sleeves until we create even better ones.

They were not afraid of trouble, but if it can be avoided, then why not?

They had just come from visiting these prisoners who swore to tell the secret of them raising spider monsters in the society... The way these people described it, seemed as if they were created actual flesh-and-blood spiders who are here to end the world.

It was almost as though they were mad scientists, going all out to create all sorts of terrifying gigantic creatures.

Bullen tapped his fingers on the table thoughtfully. "Brother Gort, we are not afraid of trouble, but having such news will lead to many getting warrants to come and
