System vs Rebirth

"Aren't trump cards meant to be used to flip the situation around?"

Paul was impressed. This was the first time someone was giving this kind of plan to him, but remembering how he came up with a plan during the demon siege, it was clear that Noel was capable of doing something like this in an instant.

Paul closed his eyes for a moment, contemplating. The others were also trying to think about this plan. They might not be as good as Noel, but by no means, they were dumb.

The plan made sense. Although there were some flaws in this plan, they were just minor flaws that could be fixed by their individual contribution. So, they nodded their heads, agreeing to this plan.

Paul was the last one to give his nod because he had to consider the lives of his group as well as the stability of the Demon Relief Squad. If their plan failed, they had to handle the consequence to the point they had to face their own demise. So, they needed to be careful here since retreat was also an option.

"…" Paul thought for a moment and asked, "What's the nearest squad from us?"

Rose hurriedly moved away to fetch the map from her bag and pointed at two spots. "The first one is Demon Barrier Squad, which is located in Skizo Town, two days away from here. The second one is Demon Extermination Squad, but Captain Shale is…"

"In the headquarters, huh…" Paul pinched the bridge of his nose. "Our Demon Relief Squad is a week from here, so I guess we can only rely on the Demon Barrier Squad…"

With all the information they had, Paul finally made a decision. "We'll delay our work for five days. The first day, we'll have Rose, Stella, and Zion to check the condition of the lake and scout around the area.

"The second day, we'll measure the intensity of the poison and do some rough calculations. On the third day, we'll try to make a simulation to drain all the water.
