Summary: It's time for Day 2 of the Heroics Tournament! This time, the students have to show off their ability to work together in randomized groups to rescue people from disasters!
Chapter 18: Heroics Tournament Day 2
"It's so arousing to see your youthful faces~! Are you all ready to get sweaty together today? Mmmm, just thinking of all those squirming muscles as everyone ends up in compromising positions is making me eager!"
It was Midnight that had taken the stage this time, to present the day's events. The Dean was conspicuously absent, likely with either the second or third years. Izumi suspected he'd actually prefer to be here, given that the older students were presented fewer new variables for him to enjoy. But she supposed he needed to show himself relatively unbiased. Not to mention that the older students were the ones that would have the media spotlight on them. As it was, it was kinda funny to see Group B react to the oozing sexuality of their sensei. Group A had already started getting used to it, but those poor souls in Group B probably hadn't had any exposure to her beyond the media. Most of the boys og Group B, and at least two of the girls for that matter, were riveted to far more than Midnight's words...
"As some of you might have guessed, where yesterday was all about your individual efforts. Today is all about teamwork! While today's events won't have quite as much effect on your placement in the 1 vs 1 Tournament, today is in some ways even more important than tomorrow! The team events are what virtually all of the hero agencies scouting first years will be most interested in. It does them no good to take on an intern that isn't a team player, after all!"
Spinning on one heel from where she'd been stalking the stage, deliberately sending her boobs bouncing and swaying with the motion, Midnight snapped her fingers. Like the day before, the large wall display lit up. Unlike the previous day, however, it showed a four-way split image. Each quadrant of the screen showed off an enclosed stage of some sort that each appeared themed after the elements. In the upper left corner, there was a mountain with numerous rope bridges, clearly loose rock, and tricky inclines. Scattered all over its slopes were standard recuse dummies, in various degrees of danger. In the upper right was an urban sprawl being hit by hurricane-force winds, with dummies taking shelter in various semi-exposed places. In the lower left were a series of small 'islands' being tossed about by rough 'seas' in a giant pool, the dummies there were everywhere from in the water, on the islands, and aboard various boats of differing sizes. The last screen, the lower right, showed the wreckage of a fuel tanker dumped over a fake bridge, the fuel alight and burning. The dummies there were scattered to and fro, from other wrecked cars, to one that was even hanging over the edge of the bridge. Even together, the area in the zones was probably only half the size of the USJ, but they were still seriously impressive both individually and taken as a whole.
"What we have for you today is four time-critical rescue scenarios. I will tell you right now, that these scenarios are designed to be completely impossible for one person, even All Might, to save everyone alone. This will force you to work with teams, randomly selected teams. Just as you would if you arrived at the sight of a real disaster. You'll need to work together to quickly prioritize victims, eliminate dangers, and overcome any unexpected events we throw in to complicate things. You will almost certainly fail to save everyone, a fact that too many heroes are blasé about. You will be graded on how many you save as a team and how well you work together to do so. With points docked from everyone for any 'victims' that don't make it."
Most of Group A were looking at Izumi and Momo, clearly grateful that they'd put together the team exercises. As well as probably hoping they would be paired up with one of them. Group B, on the other hand, was looking more than a little pale. Had they not had anyone point out to them the likelihood of team trials? Was it really that unknown? Izumi really needed to check her assumptions...and also possibly check how much of her information about the exams might have come from 2B's hacking habits, without Izumi realizing it. Oh well, there was nothing to be done about it now.
