What The Luck!? Chapter 178

The two headed toward the main cabins where the student could purchase a room to rest. They were mostly connected together and divided by sex. The male cabins were on the right and the female cabins on the left with a large storage cabin in the middle. This set up was fairly common for most camps whether they were for training camps or summer camps.
"When you said there was a storage cabin I didn't think you meant this massive thing." Jane was amazed by the size of the cabin. She had been thinking it would be a small cabin with some workout equipment of even just a few small games for campers.
"Well, are you really surprised? Some things are really not as they seem here." Asher was referring to the training and luxury cabin. They were all things that would be slightly twisted for campers to pursue and end up being educational in some form.
"Do you think they have something crazy in there then?" Jane was starting to let her mind run wild. She could imagine that there was anything from the average gym weights to some insane form of robot that chased a camper around to increase running speed.
"Only one way to find out. It looks like there is a staff member over there that lets us sign things out." Asher saw a lone staff member by two large open doors. The space was enough to drive a car through and as they approached they noticed just that.
"Hello hello. I haven't seen many campers yet. Most don't come looking for the storage building until the last few days when they realize they might need things to help them train or finish a challenge. What can I do ya for?" The staff member was an older middle age man who seemed happy to see someone so early.

"We actually came to check things out. I came early to camp and haven't been inside because I have been caught up with other things. I thought that it would be interesting to take a look." Asher didn't want to ruin the staff members' mood by saying he was jyst there to search for the golden egg to get in to the luxury cabin.
"Well, that is the best time to come and look. When there is nothing else going on and you just have some curiosity you might find something interesting." The staff member put stress on this making Asger wonder why.
Jane on the other hand was looking at the vehicles at the front in awe, "What are these and what are they for?' She wanted to know what they were used for around camp.
"These? This is a rescue vehicle. It is used for some teaching during the search and rescue classes. But we will bring it out when we need to go to the other camps along the mountain. It is equipped with many functions and items for fighting many natural disasters. If you ask me though, the best feature is the highly stable springs so that it always rides smoothly. It is much safer to transport the injured because of that."
"That does sound very useful. Is it specialized in some way for one disaster or is it always made to be an all around machine?" Asher was surprised by Janes' sudden interest in the vehicle. He had not expected her to have such desires.
"This is specialized at the moment for forest fire and mountain rescue. We have many tools and equipment to alter it here but since it is the dry season we need to remain in this set up. In the spring we have it set up for muddy and water terrains due to the river flooding from the melting snow on the mountain." This was becoming more and more enlightening. The two had not thought about such things and could feel their perceptions changing.

"And what about the small four wheeled vehicles there" Asher spotted the small vehicles with tires that looked like they would bite in to the ground as they moved.
"This is made for mountain rescues. They have specific treading on the tires to let them grip on to the multiple terrains and high inclines. They are great for getting closer to lost or trapped hikers. Ther are specially designed by hero corp and then specialized by our very own counselor Onyx." The staff member had been lucky enough to ride them once and had been very impressed, this was written all over his face.
"I think I want one. They sound so useful for any hero." Jane was only thinking about how they would make the best vehicle to get to rescues and other such incidents. They were the best way for her to be a better hero without training herself more. It wasn't that she didn't want to train herself it was just that she knew she would become limited by her own body one day.
"Well, you will need to be a little older. I also recommend you join a group that is specialized in rescues and disaster situations. That is the main kind of group that would be using them after all." The staff member thought that he might be able to push these two to aim to be rescue specialists. It was even better since one of them had already said that she wanted to be a hero.
"Jackson should come to see these. He is going to be doing this stuff right? I bet he will need to learn how all this works and what to do with them. If we get him a textbook on it he might die and go to heaven." Asher laughed a bit at his joke while wondering if Jackson was actually good at motorized vehicles.
"Jackson? Is that the boy Garnet said was going to be taking the rescue classes tomorrow? I will be teaching one of those classes so that should be great." The staff member was happy to hear that one of the campers that Garnet had been mentioning was actually already known to like rescue and other such knowledge.
