Chapter 46: The Battle Begins

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

“Soldiers, attack!”

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

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

The City Guard General roared. His eyes were red.

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

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

Hence, their equipment was the best.

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

Furthermore, the Vanguard Army had defensive-type superpowers.

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

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

“Everyone, report your status!”

“The assault army is ready!”

“The agility army is ready!”

“The control army is ready!”

“The auxiliary army is ready!”

“The air army is ready!”

“The spiritual cannons are ready!”

“The reserved resources are ready!”

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

“Boom!”

“Da, da, da!”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Bixby turned to look at Chris.

“Bring them back first.”

Hero City was very special to the teachers of Quinn.

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

“Roar!”

“Roar, roar!”

The monsters’ roar was deafening.

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

On 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.

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

Vincent’s expression was firm.

To him, this was indeed a rare battle.

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

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

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

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

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

They 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.

“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.

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

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

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

She then nodded in agreement.

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

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

“The rest of you, follow me!”

Chris looked at the others.

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

“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.

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

Chris 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.

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

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

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

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

Chris could only nod helplessly.

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

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

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

He would not joke about their lives.

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

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

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

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

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

The battle continued.

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

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

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

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

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

In 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.

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

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

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

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

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

This 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.

Johnny 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.”

“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!”

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

Bixby returned to the city wall and nodded at Chris.

“Principal Sibius agreed?”

Chris was very surprised. The news was really surprising.

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

“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.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

This 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.

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

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

Shortly 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.

No one noticed Vincent’s face.

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