BXBX NOVEL Chapter 256 Dirt Brown Leopards
"I hope he really understands what his role truly is," William didn\'t say more than that, waited for ten minutes in silence, before starting to speak up again.
"Let\'s reform ourselves, five will follow each vice leader, two will follow me in addition to you," he pointed at Ibra specifically, not trusting this dude to be in another team but his.
After all, William got the lowest number of followers compared to the other five. And Ibra was arrogant and wouldn\'t follow others\' orders but would indeed follow his.
"I\'m going to join you," another silver grade member volunteered to join. This dude came as well from the Long clan, and he acted when Berry gave him a deeper look, urging him to step forward.
"I will also join," a bronze spirit master, one who got invited here by John, decided to take the chance and join William\'s team.
"It\'s settled then," William clapped his hands when his private group and others got formed in the next five minutes.
The two who joined him were called Liam and Brand. The former was the silver spirit master from the Long clan, and the latter was the commoner spirit master.
"It\'s time to move out," William started leading everyone forward while adding, "Sara\'s team will be the one responsible for swift intervention. If there is any strong or fast approaching enemy coming here, then she will lead her team out to intercept them."
"I can do it," Sara was a silver grade spirit master, and got the one silver grade spirit master she invited here in her team, alongside four bronze spirit masters as well.
Her team was considered the strongest aside from William\'s. And William\'s team was seen as the strongest in the eyes of everyone thanks to Ibra.
No one realised that the strongest person here was William, not Ibra, not Sara, not any team with spirit members in. After all, spirit power wasn\'t the sole decisive factor in any fight. And William was going to prove such a point quite soon.
"As for any fight we will experience, Berry, Lang, and Peter will handle it. John is responsible to secure the rear and create a retreat path at any time for our team if things went wrong."
"What about you? What about me?" Ibra asked in doubt when he and others noticed that William missed mentioning his role.
"We? We, my friend, are going to be the main orchestrating minds of the team, and the firefighters as well."
"This…"
"Don\'t belittle such a role, it\'s already quite important," William rolled his eyes, while walking forward in fixed speed, "during any fight, it\'s up to us to control the tempo of the battle, order any group to retreat, advance, or even personally interfering to relieve any pressure."
"Tsk!" Ibra seemed to hate watching others fight while he\'d do nothing. And William knew he was quite wrong.
They would have to fight, and in fact William knew the fights they\'d take part in would all be quite dangerous and very intense from the start.
William\'s team would take part in any fight at the crux point, not from the beginning or something. At any given moment, the moment they\'d move would be a moment of life and death for their teammates.
William didn\'t place any of the complaints that dude issued and just kept focusing on the path they were treading.
[Hey, I found something!]
After two hours of marching, and just when the team just passed through the safe zone of the forest into the more dangerous parts, a sudden voice echoed in William\'s head.
It was the effect of the Bullet getting used, and he recognised the voice of the one who just spoke up.
The Message Paper would allow him or anyone to hear the other side as if he was standing just half a metre away from him. But the limitation of it was quite clear, limited either by range or the number of words relayed in each message.
"What did you find?" William spoke as if he was speaking towards Smith face to face. He held out the Bullet Smith left him, infused his spirit power inside to send this message out.
Seeing him speak to thin air like this made everyone quite vigilant and fishy.
Only those few who got the chance to experience the magic of Bullets before knew what was happening with William. And soon everyone got to learn about this as words spread among them.
[A group of Dirt Brown Leopards are heading towards your direction]
"How many? What grade?" William recognised this monster and started to review all the data about it in his mind.
The Dirt Brown Leopards were the type of monster that would have wind and earth spirit elements together. They were quite agile, very ferocious, and hard to kill thanks to their earth element.
Their defences were already strong enough to be considered one entire rank higher than theirs. To take them down, William knew one had to use either darkness, lightning, or the same type of spirit elements these monsters used.
[Fifty] Smith sent this high number, [They are bronze and silver grade]
"Hmm… That makes it quite difficult to deal with them…" William knew most of the members here used fire elements. So, it would prove quite challenging to take down this group of monsters fast and without casualties.
"But it\'s a good chance to train them," he thought to himself, while moving his eyes around.
Facing such a strong foe right after leaving the academy and forming the team might be hard, but not that risky if they followed his orders and arrangement. He would use this chance to start making the team much closer to each other, getting to know his way of doing battles, while securing their first victory at the end.
[Do you need me to do anything?]
