Chapter 49 - Do You Want The Squadron Leader Position?
Vincent"s face turned gloomy.
Why was Teacher Chris carrying him like he was a princess?
"I don"t want to lose face!"
Chris and the others did not know what was happening. Why would Teacher Chris carry Vincent and rush towards the high-level monsters that were fleeing?
Could it be that they had a grudge? Does Teacher Chris want to kill Vincent?
It did not make sense! If Teacher Chris wanted to kill Vincent, why would she bring him back from the Monster Horde?
It was such a waste of time.
Wherever Teacher Chris and Vincent went, the monsters would panic and instantly disperse.
It was quite obvious what was happening. If no one could identify the problem, then humans would not be able to survive in the monster-ravaged world.
The high-level monsters fled with the other monsters.
For the first time, the monsters had the upper hand, but they chose to gradually retreat instead.
The people who were being suppressed by the monsters earlier did not know what was happening.
The City Guard General did not want to waste such a good opportunity. He waved his sword and the entire army started to attack the monsters.
"Roar!"
The Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex was furious when it saw what was happening. It looked at Vincent with anger.
It thought of killing Vincent, but it was immediately suppressed by an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Although Hero City was besieged by monsters from all four sides, the west was still the main battlefield.
Once the monsters were defeated on the main battlefield, the monsters on the other three sides could not deal as much damage.
It was over!
The Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex was helpless and angry. It roared at Johnny unwillingly and flew away.
The monsters came in like a tide and retreated like one too.
The battle had come to an end.
Many people still did not know what was going on.
Those who understood the situation all looked at Vincent.
Teacher Chris and the others were familiar with one another. They all had experienced fighting several Monster Hordes in the past. Therefore, it was impossible for them to be the ones who had the ability to turn monsters away.
The only person who could have made the monsters behave in that way was Vincent.
Johnny watched the Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex leave. He looked down at Vincent who looked like he had nothing left to live for. He let out a loud and hearty laugh. His laugh could be heard throughout the entire battlefield.
"Hahahaha!"
"Warriors! We have successfully repelled the Monster Horde. We have won! Today, we will not return until we are drunk!"
After hearing what Johnny said, everyone felt as if they had survived a disaster. Their cheers were so loud that they echoed into the sky.
The battlefield was cleaned up and the wounded were treated.
Teacher Chris brought Vincent and the other students back to Hero City.
They were all treated like heroes.
The city guards, mercenary groups, rangers, the teachers, and students of Quinn, all lined up to welcome them back.
Vincent and his team were too eye-catching.
Aside from Teacher Chris, the rest of them were not high-level superpowered users. Why would the monsters be afraid of them?
It could be said that the credit went to Vincent and Teacher Chris. The war ended so quickly because of them.
There were fewer casualties because the battle ended so fast.
After surviving a disaster, who would not feel grateful?
If the battle dragged on, who else would die on the battlefield? No one knew.
Everyone was happy. However, there was one person who was gloomy. It was Chris, the battle maniac.
He was unhappy because he did not even have the chance to fight in the war.
It would be strange if he was happy.
Nyssa and her friends looked at Vincent"s team with envy.
They were all strictly monitored by Bixby. Although they partic.i.p.ated in the battle, they were controlling psionic weapons and attacking from afar.
Although the people in Hero City expressed their appreciation towards them, the treatment that they received was far different from the treatment received by Vincent and the others.
There was nothing Bixby could do. He was responsible for their lives.
Moreover, those students were the future of Quinn and humanity. He could not allow for any mishaps to happen.
At the same time, Bixby was also very impressed with Teacher Chris.
She actually allowed the students to take the initiative to attack in such a dangerous battle. She also managed to protect everyone.
She was not only strong physically and mentally, but she also had a strong heart.
As a teacher, if she was not careful, she would be punished.
This would be the case even if Vincent and the other students were not injured. She would still be reprimanded.
However, Bixby did not know that Teacher Chris did not actually give the students the green light to fight.
It was the students themselves who took the initiative to leave.
She could not just watch the students leave and fend for themselves. She had no choice!
However, she could not deny that she was the one who allowed Vincent to fight.
After all, Vincent had the ability to fight.
In fact, it could be said that he had an extremely special ability.
She was hesitating on whether she should report Vincent"s matter to the school.
It would make the school pay more attention to Vincent.
On second thought, she decided not to inform the school.
Vincent did not tell her why the monsters stayed away from him. He did not want to talk about it.
In other words, it was Vincent"s secret.
Why would she reveal his secret to the school?
Besides, with Vincent"s talent, Quinn would definitely train him to the best of his ability. Therefore, she had nothing to worry about.
Teacher Chris glanced at Vincent.
Vincent still looked like he had nothing to live for.
He was really embarra.s.sed after being carried by Teacher Chris like a princess twice in one day. Plus, she carried him in front of so many people. It was too embarra.s.sing.
At the same time, Johnny descended from the sky and nodded at Teacher Chris. He then looked at Vincent.
"Little guy, what"s your name? You"re very brave!"
Vincent took a deep breath, collected his emotions, and revealed a faint smile.
"Mayor Johnny, my name is Vincent. I"m a first-year student at Quinn."
"You"re a first-year student? A new student!"
Johnny was shocked by what Vincent had just said.
He initially thought that Vincent was at least a second-year student. He was so strong.
However, he never expected Vincent to be a first-year student.
"Wait!"
"A first-year freshman?"
"Quinn had not even started its new term yet."
"Does that mean…?"
"You haven"t officially enrolled yet?"
Johnny"s voice was trembling as he spoke.
He was hoping that Vincent would correct him and say, "You guessed wrong.".
However, Vincent did not correct him.
Vincent nodded and looked at Johnny. He was curious.
"Did I not make myself clear?"
"I"m a first-year freshman!"
"I was pretty clear!"
Quinn had not officially started school for the year.
Therefore, it was only natural that he did not officially enter the school yet. He was a first-year freshman.
Was there a problem?
Chris stood to the side and looked at Johnny. She could tell that he was shocked. She then looked at Vincent who looked puzzled. She covered her mouth and laughed.
After a long time, Johnny finally came back to his senses.
He looked at Vincent with antic.i.p.ation.
"Good! Good! The future of humanity is in sight! Hahahaha!"
"Vincent, are you interested in joining Hero City? I"ll give you the position of Special Forces Squadron Leader."
Johnny looked at Vincent seductively.
"Special Forces Squadron Leader!"
Chris, Nyssa, and her friends were all shocked.
Avril looked at Vincent, her face was filled with jealousy.
Angelina and Nabil did not know how important the Special Forces Squadron Leader position was. They were confused.
