night.

Luo Yan and other main combat team members arrived at Li Bohang's room. The quiet boy with glasses took a nap and glanced at some of his classmates.

"We're entering the Forbidden Land tomorrow, and our staff has some suggestions we'd like to share for your consideration."

Zhao Ping didn't look down on Li Bohang just because he was a first-year student. He nodded and said, "Go ahead."

Li Bohang first looked at Bai: "I don't know if it's a coincidence or if the teachers arranged it on purpose, but Canghe Academy will be entering the same area as us tomorrow."

"Senior Bai was once a student of the Canghe Academy. We'll be competing with the Canghe Academy from the very beginning. I'm wondering if Senior Bai will be able to bring herself to harm her former classmate."

"Let me clarify first, I don't doubt that Senior Bai will side with them, I just need to understand Senior Bai's thoughts in order to adjust our strategy accordingly."

Bai thought for a moment and said, "Of course I have feelings for the Canghe Academy. Senior Student Yitian and Ziyan have both helped me a lot."

"But that's precisely why I will give it my all in the competition; I believe it's the least I can do to show them respect."

Li Bohang smiled and said, "Now I have no more questions."

He then looked at Luo Yan: "Although everyone's starting zone is different, ultimately, everyone will have to enter the danger zone."

"The reason is that the number of behemoths in the Safe Zone is limited."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The reason why the Safe Zone is called Safe Zone is because there are limited giant beasts in this area, and even if there are giant beasts, they are mostly of lower rank.

Like animals, giant beasts have very clear concepts of territory and hierarchy.

In every Forbidden Land, the core zone is inevitably the territory of the Overlord Giant Beast. Here, apart from the behemoths it allows, any other behemoths that enter will be expelled or even killed.

The danger zone is teeming with behemoths, including a large number of mid- and Lower-tier Giant Beast.

This area is also a frequent haunt of Upper-tier Giant Beast.

As for Safe Zone, they are usually the edges of Forbidden Land areas, and also the places where various gold prospectors and adventure groups frequent.

At this point, Li Bohang continued, "Once the match begins, the two teams in the starting area will definitely compete to clear out the giant beasts in their respective areas before considering entering the danger zone or other Academy ' starting areas."

"Following Teacher Wei's previous suggestion, tomorrow, as soon as the competition starts, Classmate Luo, you will go directly into the danger zone for a hunting expedition."

Zhao Ping asked, "Why not let Classmate Luo and sweep through the starting areas of other Academy? Wouldn't that be much easier?"

There are two reasons.

Li Bohang smiled and said, "First, the number of giant beasts in the Safe Zone is limited, and most of them are Lower-tier Giant Beast. Even the initial zone assigned to the Tiannan Academy may not have more giant beasts than ours."

"If Luo Yan goes to the opponent's starting area, not only will he have fewer scoring opportunities, but he might also be chased away by two Academy, thus wasting time."

"Secondly, Luo Yan's ' Bi'an ' is a Divine Guard-class mecha. As far as I know, there aren't many ' Divine Guard-class ' mecha piloted by students in various colleges and universities."

"Including Luo Yan's ' Bi'an,' there are no more than five."

"With the ' Divine Guard-class mecha, I believe Luo Yan can easily venture into the danger zone alone. Besides, ' Bi'an ' is equipped with a Divine Weapon grade shield, so retreating is always an option if things get tough."

"Therefore, instead of letting Luo Yan waste time in the starting areas of other Academy, it's better to go directly into the danger zone for a hunt."

"There are many scoring targets in the danger zone. If Luo Yan takes one down, the other Academy will have one less scoring target."

"This allows for a rapid increase in points in the early stages, widening the gap with other Academy."

"Or, in the later stages, if we prevent other Academy from killing any giant beasts, making it difficult for them to catch up with us, that would be of great significance."

After listening to Li Bohang's analysis, Zhao Ping and the others agreed. Li Bohang continued.

"As for the four of you, Senior Zhao Ping..."

"Since Classmate Luo is already hunting alone, let's adopt a more risky and radical approach."

"You lot don't need to take risks; let's proceed cautiously."

"First, try to clear out the giant beasts within the initial area, then advance into the danger zone."

"In this situation, whoever discovers the behemoth first will have an absolute advantage."

"And given that both sides, or even multiple sides, possess Giant Beast Radar."

"Which student's ' Divine Treasure' can locate the behemoth faster than the Giant Beast Radar will have a huge impact on the competition."

"Therefore, I want Senior Bai to use one of her 'strange' abilities to create this advantage for us."

Bai blinked. "You mean 'Black Void'?" Li Bohang smiled and nodded, "Yes, I've seen your information. Besides making you invisible, 'Black Void' can also find your designated target."

"If it can help us discover the giant beast faster than Canghe Academy, or even other Academy."

"Then we've already won half the battle."

Bai nodded and said, "No problem, I'll have 'Blackless' search for the giant beast tomorrow."

Li Bohang smiled and said, "Considering that Senior Bai comes from the Canghe Academy, I have to assume that she has also considered this possibility."

"Then they might keep an eye on Senior Bai, follow behind us, and then kill the giant beast first when they spot it."

"So at this moment, we need Senior Zhao Ping and Senior Liu Ruohan to step in and intercept those mechs that want to kill the giant beast."

"Then, the task of slaying the giant beast will be entrusted to either Lin Wei or Senior Bai."

Li Bohang methodically assigned tasks to each member of the combat team, and considered various scenarios and corresponding strategies.

By the time Luo Yan and the others left the room, it was already quite late.

Bai glanced at the door and whispered, "Bo Hang is really amazing. He's so meticulous; he's thought of almost every possible scenario and even came up with a solution."

Luo Yan nodded in agreement.

He remembered that when he first enrolled in college, Li Bohang had demonstrated this talent during the Academy entrance examination.

Now he has further developed this talent, and he will surely follow the path of a 'strategist' in the future. For a military system, Li Bohang is the brain of the team and an indispensable role.

The next day.

One after another, the Academy convoys set off, leaving the base and heading towards ' Valley of Grief '.

Sitting in the car, Luo Yan looked out the window. The weather was getting warmer, but the room temperature was still quite cold because of the melting snow and ice.

This phenomenon will continue until at least April before spring arrives and flowers bloom.

But before the arrival of warm spring, countless lives have already been lost in the cold winter.

Faintly, the roar of a giant beast could be heard drifting in from outside the car window.

Luo Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, focused his mind, adjusted his emotions, checked his equipment, and prepared for battle.

Two hours later.

They officially entered Forbidden Land 11, the Valley of Grief!
