nThe Monster Horde was just a thousand meters away from Hero City. The City Guard General drew his spiritual sword.

n

n

n“Soldiers, attack!”

n

n

n

n

n“Kill!”

n

n

n“Kill!”

n

n

n“Kill!”

n

n

n“Vanguard Army! Prepare to charge. Use the spiritual cannons to block the monsters!”

n

n

n

n

nThe City Guard General roared. His eyes were red.

n

n

nEvery time there was a Monster Horde, the Vanguard Army suffered the most casualties.

n

n

nThey were the first to engage in close combat with the monsters, and they were also the last.

n

n

nHence, their equipment was the best.

n

n

n

n

nFrom head to toe, they were all equipped with psionic equipment. They were practically armed to the teeth.

n

n

nFurthermore, the Vanguard Army had defensive-type superpowers.

n

n

nThis was to ensure that the Monster Horde would not break through the line of defense within a short period of time.

n

n

nThis in turn provided a better environment for the rear army to prepare their damage output.

n

n

n“Everyone, report your status!”

n

n

n“The assault army is ready!”

n

n

n

n

n“The agility army is ready!”

n

n

n“The control army is ready!”

n

n

n“The auxiliary army is ready!”

n

n

n“The air army is ready!”

n

n

n“The spiritual cannons are ready!”

n

n

n“The reserved resources are ready!”

n

n

nThe general of the city guards raised his spiritual gun and yelled, “Let’s go!”

n

n

n“Boom!”

n

n

n

n

n“Da, da, da!”

n

n

nThe psionic cannons were fired. Every time it was fired, a vacuum zone would be created in the Monster Horde.

n

n

nAlthough the damage was very high, it was not very effective against the Monster Horde.

n

n

nIn the blink of an eye, the vacuum zone was filled with monsters.

n

n

nThe city guards moved methodically on the city wall. The city was more than ten meters behind them.

n

n

nThey were either filling in the cannons or carrying their ammunition.

n

n

nThe Vanguard troops rushed out of Hero City. They were five hundred meters outside of the city.

n

n

nThis was as close as they could place the psionic cannons.

n

n

nIf the Monster Horde broke through, the psionic cannons would be useless.

n

n

nThe mercenary groups were also ready, and the captains followed behind the City Guard General.

n

n

nThis was to ensure they had what they needed when they needed it.

n

n

nThe Rangers stood on the city wall. They were ready to take the place of the city guards if anything happened.

n

n

nHero City only had 8,000 city guards and they had to guard against monsters coming from all four directions.

n

n

n

n

nThere were only about 2,000 people on the city wall, and this included the Vanguard Army.

n

n

nIf the Vanguard Army was excluded, there would be less than 1,000 people on the city wall.

n

n

nBixby turned to look at Chris.

n

n

n“Bring them back first.”

n

n

nHero City was very special to the teachers of Quinn.

n

n

nHero City was also a very important and significant place. Therefore, it was no doubt that the teachers of Quinn would participate in the battle.

n

n

n“Roar!”

n

n

n“Roar, roar!”

n

n

nThe monsters’ roar was deafening.

n

n

nA monster that had a wingspan of more than ten meters flew in the sky. It blotted both the sky and sun.

n

n

nOn the ground, monsters that were extremely huge were running towards Hero City. The number of monsters was as many as the hairs on an ox.

n

n

n“Teacher Chris, I’m not going back. You can send them away.”

n

n

nVincent’s expression was firm.

n

n

nTo him, this was indeed a rare battle.

n

n

nWhen Chris heard Vincent’s words, her expression changed and she berated, “Nonsense! Vincent! Do you know what this is?”

n

n

n“This is a Monster Horde! It’s different from how you usually kill monsters! If you’re not careful, you’ll die here!”

n

n

n“Besides, do you think you can participate in this battle just because you want to?”

n

n

n“Even your seniors who are in the third and fourth grades can’t participate!”

n

n

nNyssa and her friends nodded dejectedly after hearing what Chris had said.

n

n

nThey had been eliminated in the past. If they wanted to participate in a battle of such a level, they would have to go through a very strict selection and assessment.

n

n

n“Teacher Chris! The rules do not apply here! When monsters attack, as a human, I have the right to fight them! No one can take that away from me!” said Vincent bluntly.

n

n

nThis was the first time he argued against Chris, but he was adamant that he was not wrong.

n

n

n“Moreover, teacher Chris, you saw it with your own eyes earlier. I won’t have any problems.”

n

n

nTeacher Chris was about to get angry. However, after hearing Vincent’s words, she thought of the situation in the Monster Horde earlier.

n

n

nShe then nodded in agreement.

n

n

nThe monsters did not harm Vincent when he was in the Monster Horde. This meant that Vincent would not be in danger.

n

n

nSince he was not in any danger, then Vincent would be able to contribute to the fight.

n

n

n“The rest of you, follow me!”

n

n

nChris looked at the others.

n

n

n“Teacher Chris, we’re not leaving either!”

n

n

n“Vincent has not even officially enrolled in Quinn yet, and he already has so much heart. We are seniors. How could we leave?” said Nyssa.

n

n

nNyssa and her other two friends were all determined to help.

n

n

nChris was even more direct. He just took out a crystal and swallowed it. His body expanded instantly, and he transformed into a giant ape that was forty meters tall.

n

n

nAngelina and Avril looked at each other and said at the same time, “We’re not leaving either!”

n

n

nNabil raised his hand with caution and said, “I think I can help too.”

n

n

nTeacher Chris looked at the students, her chest heaving with anger.

n

n

nBixby shook his head and said to Chris, “You protect them first. I’ll go ask Principal Sibis and the general of the city guards.”

n

n

nChris could only nod helplessly.

n

n

n“All of you, follow obediently. If Principal Sibis doesn’t agree to let you participate, you will all have to go back!”

n

n

nHe turned to look at Vincent and said, “Especially you.”

n

n

nThe group of children in front of him was the future of Quinn, the future of humanity.

n

n

nHe would not joke about their lives.

n

n

nHowever, he was also not able to determine their fates.

n

n

nIt was undeniable that the Monster Horde was a really great opportunity for them to train.

n

n

nAs long as they survived, they would definitely have huge growth in their temperament.

n

n

nThere would also be a change in their mental state that would directly affect how they view things in the future.

n

n

nPlus, their abilities to adapt in battle would surpass their peers greatly.

n

n

nThe battle continued.

n

n

nUnder the command of the general of the city guards, the psionic cannons fired continuously and hindered the monsters’ advances.

n

n

nHowever, the monsters have become more and more hysterical. They no longer cared about the death of their companions.

n

n

nBlood and flesh flew everywhere, and the ground had been dyed red.

n

n

nThe flying monsters were all killed. Their corpses fell to the ground and blood rained down from the sky.

n

n

nThe Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex looked at Hero City coldly from a distance away.

n

n

nIn the sky above Hero City, there was a burly bald man who was looking at the Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex. He was a few thousand meters above Hero City.

n

n

nHis name was Johnny, and he was the mayor of Hero City. He had an A-Class superpower known as Thunder God Wings.

n

n

nHe was an old rival of the Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex. Both of them knew each other very well.

n

n

nThey had fought each other six or seven times previously. However, neither of them managed to do anything to the other.

n

n

nSuddenly, a man jumped up from the ground and flew upwards into the air.

n

n

n“Mayor, the Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex is coming, and it is very aggressive this time. Should we ask for help?”

n

n

nThis man floating in the air was Binus. He was the Deputy Mayor of Hero City. He was a superpower user, an A-Class elemental ability type. He was the son of the Wind God.

n

n

nJohnny shook his head slightly. “Recently, the monsters in the black hole have been rioting. The strong ones have all returned to the black hole. We can handle this ourselves.”

n

n

n“Tell the soldiers, there’s no need to save ammunition. Tell them to give it their all. We must stop the monsters outside of Hero City!”

n

n

nBinus nodded. He then turned around and flew back to Hero City.

n

n

nBixby returned to the city wall and nodded at Chris.

n

n

n“Principal Sibius agreed?”

n

n

nChris was very surprised. The news was really surprising.

n

n

nBixby was also very shocked by Sibius’s decision. However, he had nothing to say as the principal had already made a decision.

n

n

n“Although Principal Sibius agreed for them to join the battle, he has instructed us to split them up into two teams. We will have to follow them.”

n

n

n“The general of the city guards also said that he will send more people over later. He wants us to form two battle teams.”

n

n

nChris nodded and turned to look at the crowd of students.

n

n

n“Vincent, Chris, Angelina, Avril, and Nabil, you will follow me.”

n

n

n“Nyssa, Hixton, and Oscanthus, you will form a group with the others that will come later. Follow teacher Bixby.”

n

n

nThey all nodded to indicate that they agreed with Chris’s arrangement.

n

n

nEveryone was very excited to be able to go out on the battlefield.

n

n

nThis was especially so for Nyssa, Hixton, and Oscanthus. They never thought that they would be able to participate in a battle of this scale before they left Quinn.

n

n

nEver since they were young, they had dreamt of fighting against monsters and fighting for the future of mankind.

n

n

nHow could they not be excited? Their dream had come true.

n

n

nShortly afterward, the people that had been sent by the general of the city guards arrived. Chris and Bixby looked at each other and left with their respective groups.

n

n

nNo one noticed Vincent’s face.

n

n

nIn his flame-shaped eyes, an even smaller purple flame was dancing around gently.

n

n

n
