The welcoming has been completed, the soldiers of the 32nd Company are hoping to get a decent resting place after this.
“For the soldiers of Company 32, we have prepared a place of rest for you during this underground city,” said Herlina.
All the soldiers in the Company of course feel calm and happy.
All the soldiers of Company 32 headed for his resting place which was in the dormitory building that was still empty. Some of the soldiers in the underground city were guiding to where they were going to rest.
The 32nd Company soldier was amazed to see the atmosphere of the underground city of Karanganyar City. Since the formation of the unit they had previously done everything as in this underground city outdoors amidst the threat of otherworldly forces that could have come at any time.
But most of them are TNI soldiers who joined before the invasion of other world nations.
That's why they can survive to this day.
Meanwhile, the captives can only resign when they are taken to a place that is more commonly called ‘White Room’. It is possible that they do not know the room that will be their ‘ rest’ place later.
But the captives still felt that the soldiers who brought them were still being kind without knowing what would happen when they were in the all-white room.
Herlina saw Nio walking towards her dorm and said, “Where are you going?”
Nio replied, “Go home.”
“Wait a minute...,” prevent Herlina and continue her words with a loud voice, “For all Squad Commanders do not return to their respective dormitories. After this Captain Surya will hold a meeting with the entire Commander Squad.”
Nio simply sighed and followed the other Squad Commanders to the usual meeting place held.
Elsewhere Tania gets her own room in one of the female warrior dormitories. This place is quite far from the dorm Nio is located which makes Tania upset.
At this place Tania decided to rest now. He put a sniper rifle in the corner of the room and then lay down on the bed provided.
Another with Nike who was only a few hours with his brother he had to be left again for a while.
Not a long time actually and the place where Surya will go is also still within the underground city.
“I'll go to the meeting first,” said Surya who will leave Nike at the reception.
Even so it turned out to be able to make Nike upset despite trying not to show his frustration by saying, “Yes, I will continue my work.
Surya saw his sister walking away from him towards the weapons development site. He also had to immediately go to the meeting place because there was already someone who was impatient.

Nio sat in place with his head laid on the table. The other Squad Commander was busy with his own affairs and ignored the self-righteous Nio.
Except Rio who had little knowledge of the true nature of Nio one of them could be a slacker at a very important time.
“Can't you reduce your lazy nature?” said Rio who had moved to sit next to Nio.
Nio replied, “Abviously I'm a slacker huh?”
Rio did not reply to any reply Nio who did like to be alone. But that's what makes him feel if Nio still looks ‘ fine-’ only after almost twice almost dying.
One more, until now Rio still can not believe if with the nature of Nio like this he can rank First Sergeant and become Squad Commander.
Nio was a gentle and courageous person. But the lazy nature and unwilling to do something that must be done alone is still questionable.
At least some people can understand the nature of Nio.
Moments later the meeting room door opened and the person who opened the door said, “Sorry I came late.”
Some people in this room began to show faces that amazed Surya, because of his achievements that were either coincidental or unable to bring the first victory after this country suffered a considerable defeat and lost several important areas.
Nio only saw Surya like a higher-ranking warrior from him, not because of his achievements.
After a fairly long opening sentence from Surya he finally said, “Alright, first I will tell you why I gathered the Squad Commander here.”
The entire person started to take out a small notebook from each other's pockets. Including Nio who was forced to do so as well because the others did just that.
“Because in 6 months all troops in this underground city will be sent to the battlefield, the superior proposes to form a special force taken from the Student Army,” Surya said.
Squad Commander here recorded the important things Surya said, including Nio who only wrote the core of Surya's speech.
“Me and Captain Herlina have the task of selecting you for special forces. For that I hope you prepare yourself one week from now because heavy things will await you!” surya said firmly at the end he said.
Nio only widened his eyes after Surya's sentence ended.
In his heart Nio said, “Heh, so I have to take the selection as well?”

The meeting had ended, the entire Company Commander rejoined their respective members who were still training. Although the training will end in 2 hours but it is the obligation of teenagers who are part of the Student Army.
Nio also immediately joined his members who were practicing shooting with mock rifles.
Let's look at the situation outside the underground city of Karanganyar City….
The safe situation allows residents to carry out activities as usual even with some changes.
Many buildings were destroyed or heavily damaged as well as heavy weapons and armored vehicles scattered at several points that were within the range of the enemy who would enter this region.
Some of these points have been estimated and mapped by experts in this field.
In the center of the provisional government, news of the victory of the 32nd Company has arrived which makes the atmosphere here different from before.
Everyone in this place became even more excited about spreading information and news related to the battle that was happening today.
What is reported is most of the success of troops in some areas that have succeeded in dispelling other world forces to control the targeted territory. They used the victory in Karanganyar City as a spirit material.
Although in some areas managed to be conquered by other world forces, but the citizens still carry out rebellion.
That surprised the otherworldly warrior Commanders who were about to continue the expansion.
“What the hell are they, why is there resistance from the community?” ask the commander of another world soldier who set up a base in the area near Karanganyar City that his troops managed to control.
“Perhaps because of the defeat of our troops here Commander,” replied his subordinates who pointed to the region marked with a red circle sign. It was Karanganyar City.
“Sial, it turns out they also have a secret weapon huh?”
“I think not so Commander. They didn't just use that cannon and exploding stick.”
“Then what weapons did they use other than that strange weapon?”
“They also use swords, like us.”
The commander of this otherworldly army began to show an expression of disbelief. A few moments later a thought flashed through his brain.
“Alright, send the troops to this region!” his orders.
His subordinate smiled in admiration then replied, “Good!”
