Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Two hours later, only Vincent, Chris, Avril, and Oscanthus were still running.
Vincent had expected such stamina from Chris and Avril. However, he was surprised to see Oscanthus still running as well.
He did not look like someone who could run for long.
No one knew how many laps they had run.
Twenty minutes later, Oscanthus lost his balance and fell to the ground. He could no longer get up after the fall.
Oscanthus gave a bitter smile after seeing the three of them still running.
The three of them were not normal.
Their physical fitness was too good.
It was possible that even the fourth-grade students might not be able to do better than them.
Although Chris was not currently in battle, he used his fighting spirit to run.
This, along with the existence of his superpower, it was undeniable that his body was much stronger than an average person’s.
Although he had already reached his limit, he could still persevere.
Vincent only had himself to rely on ever since he was young. He had persevered throughout every training, especially when he wanted to awaken his superpower.
Therefore, he was still far from reaching his limit.
Avril. Ever since she lost to Vincent, she used Vincent as her goal. She hoped to defeat Vincent one day, in every aspect.
However, her face became pale, and she was long gone.
Her legs felt like they were filled with lead. They were very heavy every time she tried to lift them.
Due to the lack of oxygen in her brain, her mind was in a trance, and she could not see clearly.
However, she had a firm belief in her heart, and that was to defeat Vincent, even if it was just running.
An hour later, Avril fainted and fell to the ground. Angelina was so scared that she ran to her and picked her up immediately.
After she was sure that her sister was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly.
How could she not know what Avril was thinking?
“Sister! Why are you doing this!”
Chris ran up beside Vincent and had an ugly expression on his face.
However, he pretended to be relaxed and said, “Vincent, a new student is suppressing an older student. That’s enough, give up.”
Vincent bared his teeth at Chris, not saying a word.
Another thirty minutes passed.
Chris looked at Vincent, whose expression had not changed at all. He sighed, stopped walking, put his hands on his knees, and panted heavily.
“You win.”
Chris shook his head and wiped off the sweat on his head. “What a freak. A guy who just awakened his superpower less than a month ago. How can he be so abnormal?”
Vincent stopped walking, looked at Chris, and shrugged.
He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. He adjusted his breath calmly and recovered his strength.
It was already dark. Chris announced the results again. She then recorded everyone’s results.
“That’s all for today. You guys go back and rest. Tomorrow morning, we’ll meet here again. We’ll gather and go to the wild.”
Vincent’s eyes lit up when he heard that.
They could finally go to the wild.
To Vincent, the wild was simply heaven.
In other words, where there were monsters, that was his heaven.
His heaven could be in the wild or even the black hole.
William squinted his eyes. His eyes flashing with a fierce light.
…
The next morning, the group gathered. Under Chris’s lead, they boarded the bus and left Quinn.
There was a male teacher named Bixby who went with them.
He was handsome and very sunny.
Chris had specially invited him to help protect everyone.
Vincent looked at the scenery outside and asked curiously, “Teacher Chris, we’re not going to Bick Town, are we?”
Chris nodded and explained, “As this is a special training for you, we’re going to an intermediate monster activity area located five kilometers away from the city.”
“There are a lot of intermediate monsters there. High-level monsters will also appear from time to time. It is located in the opposite direction of Bick Town.”
Vincent nodded in understanding. He changed his posture, closed his eyes, and rested.
He could now completely control his own power.
In addition, the system had provided him with a lot of leveling up pills in his backpack. He could become an intermediate superpower user at any time.
Therefore, he was not worried about the place that they were going to this time. He was even looking forward to it.
Perhaps, he could even use this opportunity to level up.
However, after considering his classmates’ levels, he decided to wait a little longer before he levels up again in order to not attract too much attention.
After all, it only took him one month to become a pretty high-level superpower user. It was too shocking.
He did not want to expose the fact that he was actually a three S-Class superpower user.
The gains outweighed the losses.
Three hours later, at about noon, the bus arrived in a town that was three times larger than Bick Town.
It was no longer accurate to call it a town. It should be called a city instead.
Hero City was the name of this city.
Everyone looked at Hero City with puzzled expressions.
They did not expect a city to be located in such a dangerous area.
As this area was too far away from Blazing City, no one had ever traveled to this area. This included Battle Maniac Chris.
“This city was built by the previous principals of Quinn.”
Bixby saw that everyone was puzzled and took the initiative to explain.
“It has been able to withstand the attack of overlord-level monsters. It has also been more than a hundred years since it was built.”
“Before the monsters appeared, one of the branches of Quinn School was located here.”
As the bus got closer and closer to Hero City, Angelina said in a surprised tone, “Look! There are so many names on the city wall!”
“How is that possible! Why are people’s names on the city wall? Damn it! There really is!”
“Why are there people’s names on the city wall?”
When Chris heard this, her expression became solemn, and her mood was very down.
“You’re not mistaken, those are indeed people’s names…”
“However, they have all been sacrificed.”
“Every name is your senior or my senior.”
“Hero City, how many stones you see are how many warriors that have died fighting for the survival of the human race. There is an equal number of people’s names engraved on them.”
Chris looked at the crowd with a very serious expression.
“Or else, how do you think this city got its name?”
“How would you still have the peace of mind to study?”
Vincent was in awe.
It had only been a hundred years since the black hole appeared, yet so many people had died.
This group of people had died fighting for the future of the human race. They were worthy of being remembered.
The bus stopped at the entrance of Hero City. Everyone got off the bus and bowed deeply in the direction of Hero City.
This city was the resting place of all the past heroes. This was the respect that it deserved.
“Alright, let’s go in. After passing through Hero City, the selection will officially begin.”
Chris checked and confirmed their identities with the teacher who was guarding Hero City. Everyone was then beckoned to enter Hero City.
Three hours later, five hundred meters outside of Hero City, Chris said, “Alright, this place will be the center. Everything within a thousand meters will be your area of activity. Teacher Bixby and I will protect you secretly.”
