" As such, winter trainings are necessary to extend your knowledge and experience. Second year SMP cadets are expected to complete a 720 hours of training as part of the program. In addition to that, it's a pre requisite as well for an incoming third year. You have plenty of time to drop out of the this program prior to the start of that practical course. The rest of you who will stay, don't come unprepared. Once you enter the camp, you will be automatically treated as one of the soldiers. No special treatment, no excuses. You will begin your military trainings in the northernmost region of metropolitan territory. The Carleone of district 1. The second highest peak in metropolitan is located in that town and that is The Brosnola mountain peak, with 5,268 metres above sea level. The camp is situated 3 miles east of the mountain. "
Sergeant Major Davidson elaborates the whole training in one session. Our first meeting with this subject definitely doesnt went with meet and greet. He went straight to the point like hey, this is what you're about to do. Just don't mess up and you're good.
Nonetheless I look forward to it and preparations must be done. Military is not for the faint hearted. If you can't keep up, better drop out.
The training will begin at first week of November and will be over just before the holidays. Although it's just a week into the winter season, I think the Brosnola mountains stays at its negative degrees weather. It will be hard to navigate in an extreme weather condition but that's the point I think. Otherwise the training is ridiculous.
" Did you know there are some rumors about a neighboring town of Carleone, particularly a village that has been wiped out by DATFU. "
I looked behind right after Anthony whispered at my back. The sergeant left a while ago and the class is having a free time of what is left of the subject. Ever since the classes started, Anthony and Echo sits behind me and chats with me whenever there is no instructor inside. Most of the things they say are just plain stupid and corny jokes.
I never really paid attention when they try to annoys from behind but this one time blabber caught my interest. DATFU is the largest military force in this current time. Common people might not be familiar to it since it rarely gets on the news. Metropolitan authorities takes care of the business as much as possible even though DATFU's headquarters is inside metropolitan.
Nonetheless, anything associated with DATFU can be quite intriguing. They deal not only with humans but with other entities. The scope of their work is complex and covers a larger portion of enforcement.
" and where did you heard that rumor ? " I asked while my back still turned to them.
" uuhhh, have you heard the Dragons Dungeon ? A special site for DSU forums. "
I most definitely knew that site but I won't admit it to them. Well I gotta play this dumb and deny my knowledge about it so I shook my head.
Wait, dont tell me they are a member too ?
" A special site huh. What is it all about ? " I replied to him.
" DSU random shit. Topics like that goes long way and those lores and urban legends are popular. "
" you can read stories like that from that site ? "
This was a genuine question because as far as I remember, I never got the chance to explore that site because I only wanted a specific transaction to be done and that site is the only thing that can help me at the moment. Other than my main intention, I have no use of that site anymore. Though I always knew I will find odd things on that website if I have the time.
" It's a past time. Aside from reading rumors about yourself, you can find interesting stuff there too. Just like this one. "
So Anthony is a member of that site too. I don't know how he is so casual about it or maybe it's just me. Maybe it's the fact that we are using that platform for different purpose. He said it's just his past time while I used it for some illegal transaction. Well I get it though.
