I-..." Andre couldn't say anything since he knew that it was true. One mistake on their part would only make the situation worse.
Fushigiro, Jin, and the others shook their heads as they agreed with Johan on these matters. It's not they don't trust the kids. However, everyone's life is on the line. They can't afford to have a fluke ntality.
Caleb didn't mind a strong opponent. What's more scary was a pig teammate. After all, one mistake would only be what it would take to take everyone's lives and fail.
What does he an by a pig teammate? Let's put it in gaming terms...
Imagine you're in a high-stakes match in a ga like League of Legends or Valorant. Winning ans everything, and the intensity is evident. In this virtual battlefield, facing a strong opponent, soone who's known for their exceptional skills and tactics might actually seem sowhat exciting. It's like preparing to face a legendary player who's notorious for their deadly accuracy and strategy. You're anxious, but you've trained for this. You know what you're up against, and you're ready to give it your all.
Now, picture a different scenario where you have what so might call a "pig teammate." This teammate doesn't follow the team's strategy, rushes into dangerous situations without thinking, and repeatedly makes costly mistakes. It's like being in a League of Legends match with a teammate who keeps charging solo into the enemy team or diving solo in the enemy turrets, getting themselves killed, and putting your entire team at a disadvantage. Or, in Valorant, it's akin to having a teammate who constantly reveals your team's position to the enemy or accidentally hits your teammates with your agent's abilities, such as blinding them.
In these monts, the fear isn't just about the formidable opponents you're facing; it's about dealing with the unpredictable and reckless actions of your own teammate. Their choices can turn the tide of the ga against your favor. You're not just battling the enemy; you're also fighting the frustration and uncertainty that cos with having a teammate who seems to be working against your team's success.
So, what makes it truly frightening in these gaming scenarios is that one mistake from the "pig teammate" could throw the entire match into chaos, potentially resulting in a loss despite your own best efforts. In gaming, just like in real life, sotis dealing with an unreliable teammate can be scarier than facing formidable opponents because their actions can directly impact the outco, and there's often little you can do to control them. It's a fear that gars know all too well.
"Let's go..."
Jin's voice pulled Caleb out of his thoughts. They were about to fight another unknown Abomination!
...
Jin, Caleb, Fushigiro, Dunn, Tamasai, Miles, and the two girls were hidden next to a tree. Behind them were the four kids. Although they won't join the fight. They couldn't just leave them anywhere since they don't know how many Apokalips are there on the mountain.
The gaze of the hunting party was all pointed in the sa direction. It is the Apokalip not far away from them.
It didn't have many similarities to the first Apokalip they fought, except for its eight-ter height. Yup, it was slightly smaller. However, still big enough to trample them. One has to think from the perspective that, on average, adult humans range in height from approximately 150 to 190 centiters (1.5 to 1.9 ters), although there is a wide variation in heights among individuals.
It was just pure bullshit. For reference, let's use a popular ani in his past life. Caleb did his assignnt on that Ani since it had hooked him from start to end.
The height of the average Titan in that ani was just typically range in height from 3 to 15 ters (10 to 49 feet). The most common Titans encountered by the main character are around 4 to 7 ters tall.
These Titans are also larger than most houses, and their size allows them to wreak havoc in human settlents.
Titans in this size range are still much taller and larger than humans. They can easily step over or destroy buildings and pose a significant threat. Apokalips are 3 ters larger than those normal titans.
So one can just imagine... Usually, the size of the body was also directly proportional to strength. The Apokalips have a big advantage compared to human because of their sizes. It was an unfair advantage.
Just imagine a 1.5-ter individual versus a 10-ter one. Isn't it logical who will win if one only accounts for the strength of the body?
Why do you think there are weight classes in boxing? Weight classes in sports like boxing are designed to ensure fair competition.
It's not just about strength, but also about safety. If a much smaller boxer were to fight a significantly larger opponent, there would be a high risk of injury due to the weight and size difference. Weight classes help match competitors of similar size and strength, making the competition more balanced and safe.
Fortunately, battle isn't just about strength. There are a lot of factors involved. Just like how David defeated Goliath or how they had brought down the 10-ter Apokalip near the Well. Strength also depends on leverage and technique. A person who knows how to use their body efficiently can generate more force, regardless of their size. Having more muscle mass can provide greater strength, but it depends on how well those muscles are trained and utilized. A well-trained and smaller individual can be much stronger than a larger person who is not as fit. Of course, as long as the size gap wasn't as exaggerated as human vs. Godzilla, for example.
Still, the size difference made it hard for humans to challenge Apokalips. However, the heaven was fair. They gave humans in this world the chance to beco Destiny!
Still, Caleb feels fortunate that the Apokalips from Tier 9 and 8 aren't as big as a colossal titan. Only Tier 6 Apokalips have such size and they are rarely encountered. Just like the one that breached the 1st wall, wall, and 3rd wall.
"Let's begin. We will use the sa formation. Jin and I will be the ones that will take most of its attack. While you guys would assist us and help us create a window of opportunity to strike." Fushigiro's eyes sharpened as if he were ready for the incoming battle. Then he looked at Caleb. "Due to your injured arm. You won't join the lee. However, try to use your throwing specialty when the ti cos."
Caleb nodded solemnly.
"Yes, captain!"
Then he looks at others.
"Don't die on , guys."
Dunn chuckled.
"We are tougher than we look."
