Divine Path System

The Military side of Valos city, also called as Military Region was a forbidden area to the populace.

The core reason cities like Valos were built was to have teleportation formations in between Uranus and Neptune.

The residents living in the city were an unexpected accident.

So, regardless of the chaos in the city, the army guarded the region with utmost diligence.

It wasn't just teleportation formations, there were also crucial supplies like weapons, food, important materials among other things.

"And that's why, you shouldn't take an extra step, not touch anything you aren't supposed to. Am I clear?" The officer named Henry said in a sonorous tone.

"Yes, sir." The 17th batch cadets said and got off the hover train.

What was presented in front of them was a world filled with grey and black buildings that stretched into the sky.

There were shockwaves in the sky from time to time as the space shuttles practiced their formations.

As the cadets stepped on the black road, its surface flickered and a few discs appeared under their feet.

Henry tapped his comm and they all dashed forward gazing at their surroundings with curiosity.

"Now we're in the Outer Region." Henry said. "This place typically holds training fields for the enlisted, but all soldiers up to level 3 practice here."

Saying so, he snapped his finger.

The huge black doom to their right suddenly became transparent.

The cadets opened their eyes wide as they saw a huge complex full of floating spheres.

Each sphere had soldiers fighting in small groups.

What really came as a shock was the teamwork. Working together, they were far stronger than the sum of their individual strengths.

The better the team work, the more evident this became.

"Some divine paths work well in combination.

For example, telepaths can control the enemies from the rear while body awakeners and Morphers take on the enemies in close combat.

Elementals can act as close combat, but they're mostly suitable for long range attacks." Henry said as they moved forward.

A gigantic cube complex turned transparent and they saw hundreds of soldiers flickering in and out of existence trying to attack a huge tortoise beast.

"In the early stages, Space Awakeners can act as good assassins. During the mid levels, they can act as a good controllers from the rear.

They also play a crucial role in rescuing the ones near death." Henry tapped his comm and they moved forward once again.

Slowly, he explained the general tactics and strategies followed in the battle. And showed the facilities they had for training the soldiers.

"By the time of graduation, if you can reach low level 5, after a quick training, you'll be promoted. Your training resources will be higher than many senior soldiers of lower levels." Henry said with an encouraging face.

"If you want to change your life, make the best of this opportunity."

Many cadets straightened their backs and nodded vigorously. As children of poor and middle class families, this was their only chance at changing their fate.

"Yes, Sir!"

'….'

Varian looked at Edwina beside him and rolled his eyes. She managed to convince Henry somehow.

"Now, we're entering the Inner Region." Henry said and everyone felt like they were suddenly pulled and suddenly stopped, causing them to almost tumble down on the disc.

Only a few didn't budge, including Varian, Liliuh, Vinar and of course, Edwina.

Henry glossed over the various facilities and from time to time, allowed them to question.

He skipped the sensitive information and answered the rest.

In a few hours, they saw many dueling grounds, training facilities that made use of aura concentration formations on a large scale, pilots performing incredible feats with space shuttles and of course, heard the famous slogan from the meeting.

"Hope in our souls lasts forever!"

Hearing the heartfelt shouts of the soldiers, the cadets also shouted.

"Hope in our souls lasts forever!"

This slogan was born during the darkest times of humanity, when Abyssals invaded the planets and when humans had to live in the bunkers, and fight with all their lives.

The connectivity between planets was severed and everyday, hundreds of millions of humans died.

The war ravaged the planets and the end of humanity seemed inevitable.

Those moments of despair birthed this slogan.

"Hope in our souls lasts forever!"

Varian recalled his personal hardships and shouted along with everyone.

"We've covered all the parts of Inner Region. I hope you all work hard and enlist into the military." Henry said and looked at the 30 odd cadets of 17th group.

"Any questions?"

"Un, what is in the core group?" A girl asked with a timid voice.

"Louder!"

"…What is in the core group?" She yelled.

Henry nodded in approval and said. "There is one S-grade and one X-grade facility."

S and X grades meant second highest and highest level of protections.

"Are Teleportation formations the X-grade?" A boy with glasses asked.

"Yes." Henry nodded.

"Then what is the S-grade facility?" The boy continued.

"The Kernel of the city."

'Kernel?' Most of the cadets were confused.

Henry paused for a moment and shrugged. "It's equivalent to the City's central hardware. It's responsible for gravity, defense and other things."

"Then shouldn't it be X-grade, Sir? If something happens and gravity changes,? it'd be too problematic." An energetic girl asked.

Henry's stoic face flashed a smile. "Even thought it's only an S-grade facility, it's completely made of Durasium."

"…." The cadets were suddenly silenced. They even nodded vigorously.

'Wait, what?' Varian also nodded, but he had no clue.

He didn't even finish his first year, dammit! How was he supposed to know this stuff?

'Master, this is from the syllabus of your first semester. You asked me to write your exams. Of course, you wouldn't know.' Boo suddenly said, causing Varian to almost cough out blood.

'You can bash me later, but what's durasium?' Varian asked as they travelled back to the hover train.

'Durasium is one of the strongest alloys in the federation. It's made only a decade ago, but it's already used in important facilities.'

'I see. There's no problem with our gravity then.' Varian shrugged and boarded the hover train.
