Rows of military tents lined the outskirts of the city, and the landscape was punctuated by the presence of armored vehicles and strategically positioned soldiers.
The collective heartbeat of No. 3 High School melded with the rhythmic march of disciplined troops. The soldiers moved with purpose, their battle-hardened temperament evident in their every step. Each glance carried the weight of experience.
Caleb's classmates couldn't help but exchange glances, the realization dawning upon them that they were now part of a much larger force. The students were but a fraction of the formidable array of soldiers assembled to combat the incoming Beast Tide. The soldiers, with their seasoned demeanor and readiness for battle, evoked a sense of confidence and reassurance.
