The Protector's military formation was also a result of specialized drills. All their middle and low-ranking military officers often checked their watches. Before the mission began, nearly all low-ranking officers leading the squads were assigned a "Pace Chart" from an offline AI.
Each individual squad marched with uniform and rhythmic footwork. For the cybernetically enhanced people, this was a very simple matter. They could maintain "completely consistent" footwork and rhythm until the very end.
However, the footwork of most squads was staggered, with different cycles and stepping points. Over a wide area, this created an effect roughly averaging out, and the vibrations on the ground would cancel each other out. Relying only on sound would confuse people's senses.
But within this harmony akin to white noise, there was one discordant sound making a rapid advance.
The Ninth Martial God followed this discordant sound, moving forward.
A loud roar resounded.
