"The grouping will now begin."
"As is practical in life, teammates are naturally to be found by yourselves, and no one will interfere with your choices."
"Now according to the standard adventure division, the highest is seven people, the lowest is a group of three people, choose yourselves and come to me to register."
The leading teacher said seriously.
Grouping this kind of thing, basically all had already heard about it from the seniors of the higher grades, so quite a few people in the class had already completed their grouping privately.
This time, the actual combat drill was carried out by a total of two classes together, with a total number of sixty people, and according to the average of five people in a group, it would basically be divided into about twelve groups.
After the grouping was completed, the senior students and accompanying teachers who received the escort assignment would also be assigned to the covert protection ranks.
William has no special feeling about this, after all, he alone, can be a team, teammates and whatnot as they please.
...
Half a minute did not, the team has basically divided themselves, after all, is originally is privately negotiated.
So naturally there are usually more introverted people were left behind, William roughly looked at, there are about seven or eight.
"That ...LIAN, shall we team up?" Zhuo Sandy was a little nervous as he came to inquire.
"Yes, call me WEILIAN if calling me LIAN doesn't sound good." William smiled.
"LIAN your name is really special." Zhuo Sandy was also relieved.
It's a good thing that LIAN is willing to team up with me and is still a high-level warrior, otherwise I really don't know how to find teammates when I only have the 'Intermediate Magician' rank.
"Can I join you guys?" Another rather nervous inquiry .
"No problem." William nodded.
"Good, that makes three of us." Drosandi was happy too.
The one who came over was from the other class, also a more introverted guy, William also knew that he was a merchant's child based on the information he had obtained, his name was Rex Blau, a high-level magician, specializing in fire magic, which was more common among magicians, and would also have intermediate earth magic as well as low-level wind magic.
"I'll go in the front, Rex magic output, Zhuo Sandy assist with wind magic plus water magic healing is just right." William said.
This wasn't 'the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility' on his part, it was merely a reasonable arrangement.
There was still a lone one in his own class, but he had already noticed that that person was being pulled together by a team of nobles.
Naturally, he knew that the noble kid at the head of the group was preparing to pull him in as an underhand.
To put it bluntly, he was treated like a servant, and it was true that lethargic habits filled the noble class.
"Uh-huh." Zhuo Sandy was a little excited, looking like it was the first time she had practiced in real life.
At the same time she noticed.
"LIAN don't you have a magic ring? Why do you still have your spare sword on your back?" Zhuo Sandy was a bit puzzled.
The school had issued each student a magic storage ring with about half a cubic meter of storage, and William himself had a large capacity one, which was why Zhuo Sandy was puzzled.
Because William not only had one on his left side waist, he also had two swords crossed on his back that looked like spares, the one long and the other short were particularly conspicuous.
"The swords are sturdy enough to block attacks from behind." William said simply.
"Right! I see, so there's a reason why those warriors like to carry their spare weapons behind their backs!" Drosandi realized.
William smiled.
Of course I won't tell you, I'm actually better at dual swords, as for the other extra one it's my special magic sword.
...
"Come over here in groups." The lead teacher was calling out.
"Ah..! We haven't picked a captain yet?" Zhuo Sandy was a little flustered.
Normally, it was the captain who went up to hand over some necessary matters.
"Let's have Rex-san then, the wizard is definitely calmer than me, the warrior who has to go up." William prioritized pushing off.
"Huh? Oh ... okay." Rex wasn't really too keen on saying yes, but wasn't good at saying no.
Drosandi was a little confused inside.
Obviously LIAN gives me the feeling that he's more of a captain who can lead, so how did he back off so quickly?
William's policy at the academy was simple, study at ease and keep a low profile.
If he didn't really encounter a life and death crisis, he would never expose his true strength, let alone being a captain, something that would attract others' attention.
Rex brought them up and received special magic props from the leading teacher, which could be used for emergency contact and as hunting trophy verification, as well as an extra special call for help magic scroll for backup use after the magic props failed.
After that, it was about the leading teacher or the escorting senior.
However, there were only three of them, no teacher could be assigned to their group, as for the remaining ...
Who was that?
William noticed someone, a strange guy with glasses who was carrying a big bag of stuff even with his magic ring.
At first glance, he was very weak and not good at fighting.
Did he come to this escort mission as well?
That's right, he's good at research, but he doesn't have enough credits in this area, so it's a good choice for him to take on the escort mission for the lower grades' practical combat drills.
It's a good opportunity to draw a close relationship, but unfortunately the captaincy was pushed out by me, so ...
"Huh? Josh-senpai, you're here for the escort mission too? It's really rare." William took the initiative to greet with a familiar look.
Caspar Josh, Magic Department Alchemy Academic Senior Cadet, a skilled person that William was preparing to get acquainted with.
"So it's WEILIAN schoolmate, hello." Kaspar was stunned at first, before remembering that he had briefly recognized William in the library before.
"WEILIAN student, is it an acquaintance of yours?" Rex hurriedly asked, it was best to have an acquaintance.
William smiled inwardly, wanting this effect.
Their group originally had few people, no strong seniors were willing to take so few people because the credits were not high. Rex, as the captain, was worried about the problem of escorting the seniors' assignments, and it was natural to have an acquaintance who could apply directly.
"Yes, the senior Caspar Joshi, whom I met in the library before, is very good in alchemy and can make all kinds of magic props." William briefly introduced.
"Great, can Senior Caspar serve as our group's escort?" Rex hurriedly asked.
An alchemist, a senior is at least a senior magician, right? With luck it might be a Grand Magician or even a Magician!
"Haha, it's not as powerful as what senior said, and I've only just broken through as a Grand Magician." Casper smiled somewhat embarrassedly and scratched his head.
"Very impressive!" Rex was instantly relieved.
A Grand Magician, in the outer zone of the primary to advanced magical beasts, safety would be guaranteed.
"So it's settled then?" Zhuo Sandy also asked happily.
The rest nodded their heads.
"Then Senior Caspar, my name is Drosandi Anemisi, an intermediate magician." Drosandi introduced herself.
"Rex Blau, senior wizard." Rex says coyly.
"Although it was just explained by WILIAN schoolmate, ... Casper Josh, nice to meet you guys." Casper also smiled.
It could be seen that all three of them were relatively introverted.
William was also relatively satisfied with this, this kind of team was not prone to conflicts, just keep a low profile through this practical exercise.
Of course, the most satisfying thing was still being able to contact Casper.
That was the technical talent he had been longing for, a rare teammate.
