Chapter 47 - Entering the Battle
When Vincent was surrounded by monsters in the cave earlier, he could not care less about what the system had rewarded him.
When he finally had the opportunity to check the system, he found out that the system rewarded him with a superpower upgrade gem.
He decided to use it.

The Hellfire attribute was originally S-Class. After the upgrade, it became S+ Class.
Vincent could sense a purple flame appearing in the center of Hellfire.
He also felt an unprecedented destructive power.
However, he was puzzled. How did he complete the first phase of the evolution?
Moreover, the evolution progress had become zero.
Does it mean that Vincent had entered the second phase of Hellfire?
Although Vincent could not understand what was happening, he was still extremely happy with the upgrade.
After all, Hellfire had become twice as strong.
Chris looked at the six of them. She stopped her gaze at Vincent and Chris.
“All of you must stay close to me. You are not allowed to stray further than 100 meters.”
Vincent and Chris smiled at each other. They saw a hint of awkwardness in each other’s eyes.
It was obvious what Teacher Chris meant.
Chris fought against the Monster Horde.
Was it something a normal person could do?
Vincent, on the other hand, managed to stop the monsters from coming within three meters of him.
No one knew what he would do next.
Teacher Chris believed that the two of them were like bombs.
It was possible for them to do something out of line at any time.
At the same time, Johnny came down from the sky. He looked at Chris and Bixby. Bixby was far away.
“General Sibis agreed?”
Johnny was not from Quinn. He was a general who worked under Sibis.
Hence, he would address Sibis as a general and not a principal.
Chris nodded. “The principal allowed them to train.”
Johnny looked at the students and sighed.
“They are all future seedlings. The general seemed to be very willing to part with them.”
He took a deep breath and continued speaking.
“Since the general has agreed, I will not say anything further. Follow the Quinn Combat Army.”
Chris looked at the Quinn Combat Army that had already been assembled.
“It’s better if I lead them myself. If there are any problems, I will handle it.”
“After all, these students have not been trained. It’s easy to have problems if they join the army rashly.”
Johnny thought for a moment and agreed. Chris was right.
“Then you guys stay at the west wall.”
“After all, the general wants them to train. This is the main battlefield. It is also the place that has the strongest military. It’ll be safer if you stay here.”
“You will need to control the timing yourselves. You don’t have to listen to anyone’s orders.”
With that, Johnny got up and flew back to his original position. He still had to keep an eye out on the Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex.
After all, it was the biggest threat in the Monster Horde.
High-level monsters had special-class combat strength.
The Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex had tough skin and thick flesh. The slightest carelessness would result in a large number of casualties.
It had not been long since the battle started.
However, the Vanguard Army was already in a head-on battle with the Monster Horde.
In order to ensure the safety of the Vanguard Army during this time, the psionic cannons could only be fired from one kilometer away.
All kinds of guns, arrows, and elemental attacks were also used to fire at the monsters to reduce the pressure on the Vanguard Army.
If they only had to deal with the monsters on the ground, the defense-type battle would not be a problem.
However, there were also monsters flying in the sky. They were attacking the soldiers on the city wall from above.
Although there were some superpowered people who could fly to fight the flying monsters, there were not many of them.
The difference in numbers was a challenge.
Both humans and monsters suffered heavy casualties in a short period of time.
There were too few humans as compared to monsters. Even if the numbers were equal, humans would not have an advantage over the monsters.
This was because there were very few humans who had high-end combat strength.
On the other hand, the weakest monsters were low-level monsters. There were thousands of medium-level monsters and hundreds of high-level monsters.
On the other hand, there were only about a hundred high-level superpowered people.
There were only a few people who were as strong as Chris.
Chris transformed into a close-combat monster. He watched the battle between the Vanguard Army and the monsters. He was very eager to give it a try.
However, as Teacher Chris was monitoring him closely, he could not move any closer.
Forcing a battle maniac to wait was worse than killing him.
“Teacher Chris, are we just going to watch?”
Chris could not help himself and asked Teacher Chris directly.
Teacher Chris glared at him.
The battle was very intense. As time passed, the Vanguard Army’s defense line was about to be destroyed.
In ten minutes, the defense line had been pushed back two hundred meters, and more than half of them were dead.
The City Guard General frowned.
This was not good for the defense of Hero City at all.
If the monsters were within two hundred meters of Hero City, the psionic cannons would be completely useless.
“Mercenary group! Those who are good at defense, please step up!”
Although they did not want to use the mercenary group, the City Guard General had no choice.
The various mercenary groups proceeded to make arrangements. They then sent their people out of the city to take over the Vanguard Army’s formation.
It was very impressive how the Vanguard Army managed to hold on for so long.
“Special Forces, move out!”
The Special Forces were a group of high-level superpowered people. There were only about 60 of them, and they were all experienced.
As the Special Forces were deployed, more than 200 high-level monsters rushed out from the Monster Horde to attack them.
This was a battle between the high-level combat individuals and monsters. Although it was only a small-scale battle, the intensity was extremely high, and the damage was horrifying.
Vincent thought for a moment and pointed at the high-level battlefield. He said to Chris, “Teacher Chris, I’ll go help.”
Teacher Chris frowned. However, after she thought about how Vincent was able to stroll freely in the monster horde, she agreed.
After all, she was still able to protect Vincent even if there was a problem.
After getting Chris’s approval, Vincent set out.
Everyone was stunned when they saw Vincent rushing out to fight.
How come Vincent was able to go and fight?
Even if he was powerful, it was unlikely that he could participate in a high-level battle.
“If he can go, I can go too!”
Chris could not hold it in any longer. After seeing Vincent leave, he left Teacher Chris a message and rushed out as well.
