Chapter 2000 'A Hidden Stronghold'
Chapter 2000 "A Hidden Stronghold"
The higher-ups' faces instantly turned pale and even the ten deans, the highest authority of the academy, could not help but be stressed.
This case involved the future generation of their academy!
How could they not panic?
If they could not save the trapped contestants and students…
The Elton Academy would regress in strength by a few years.
The ten deans were strong, but even they could not solve the issue with dimensional holes, the abyss and so on.
What they could do now was to ensure the people inside the island could survive until the space disturbance became normal again.
Maybe a few days after the abyss opened up, there would be a change in the space disturbance and maybe, the people trapped there could also leave.
The question was, how do they ensure the contestants and the students stay alive for a few days when there would be abyss demons attacking?
The people inside the meeting room were silent for a moment before one of the ten deans, a beautiful elf woman, spoke in a soft voice.
"Let's try to use internal teleportation first. We have to gather all the students and contestants in one place that is far from any dimensional holes."
The chosen place also had to consider the terrains which were easy to guard but hard to be attacked.
The elf dean was also nervous because there were quite a few elves among the students sent to the island, and other deans who had students of their races were equally as worried as the elf woman.
Their non-human race usually didn't have a lot of descendants and so, each child was so important, unlike humans who could give birth to a lot of people and had a high fertility rate.
Maybe humans would also mourn for the lost talents, but there could be new talents every single year.
On the other hand, the non-human races could not accept the death of even one child, no matter if the child was talented or not.
The celestial race had a high number of population, but they were also pushed back a lot after losing around one million of their population within just a few days of the war.
That war was a nightmare and could be considered a huge genocide occurrence recorded in history.
The celestials would lose their potential growth and many other advantages for more than one decade at the loss of one million soldiers.
Even if not many youngsters joined that one million number and the majority of people who died were halflings...
The celestial race still could not bear the huge loss.
Maybe they would have never thought that they would be wiped out and only less than a thousand celestials on the battlefield survived.
Now, the non-human deans had a similar experience with the celestial race, so how could they stay calm?
The elf dean's suggestion sounded really good and many other deans thought about it before asking the staff to try.
"It will be good if we can really use the internal teleportation and gather all the contestants plus the students in one place."
This way, even if the people were trapped on the island, they could also be transferred from one location to another just to ensure everyone's safety.
It was impossible not to have a single casualty, but if they could, the people here hoped that the contestants would protect the students.
They all had a little selfishness and hoped that the contestants could sacrifice instead of the students.
Of course, this thought was malicious, but the academy could not favor contestants who had not even become the academy's official instructors.
On the other hand, those students were students the Academy had cultivated for a long time, wasting many resources.
It was clear which side the academy would favor more.
However, without the contestants, just relying on the students' strengths would be impossible.
The academy still had to beg the contestants to protect the students for their sake.
The staff hurriedly tried to teleport a random contestant with their three students to another place on the island and this time, the teleportation worked.
Seeing this, the staff immediately informed the higher-ups in the meeting room and the higher-ups hurriedly discussed the stronghold location they wanted to give to the contestants and the students.
"Where do you think we should gather them? The place should have enough resources for around 1.500 people, and the geographical location should also be strategic..."
The deans led the discussion and soon, the people in the meeting room opened the recorded holographic map of the entire island.
Considering that the island would not suddenly change location and such, they had to find the best location to build the temporary stronghold.
To be honest, the chance of the island suddenly changing terrain like yesterday was small because now, the situation was different than before and the island should also be different than usual.
The deans and the higher-ups tried to recall whether they had built temporary housing or some kind of resting houses on the island for those who came to the island.
To their surprise, they did build something like a small castle with one huge hall and a three-story tall building.
There were tall walls and everything similar to a castle full of basic defensive weapons and such.
But this stronghold, which could hold up to a few thousand people, was an old stronghold that had been abandoned.
The stronghold was built for mercenaries and guild members in the early days of island exploration.
That place was already as old as someone's great-grandparents, so the defense was not that strong anymore.
