System's POV

Chapter 675: Time To Rumble!



Cynthia looked at the teenagers, who were standing a few meters away from the Dimensional Gate with an appraising look.

All of them didn't have even the tiniest look of anxiety in their eyes. On top of that, everyone seemed to be burning with fighting intent.

Diana's and Shana's Gold and Silver banners fluttered in the breeze, buffing their allies and raising their abilities in battle.

Even Cynthia was quite surprised, feeling that even she had gotten stronger.

Sherry was riding on her Adamantine Falcon, while her Armored Blade Panther was standing right beside Thirteen.

She had ordered her Avatar to protect the teenage boy, who couldn't summon Rocky in the current situation.

Erica and Derek were already betting with each other on who would kill the most enemies once the monsters from the Dimensional Gate crossed over to their side.

Roland and Joshua were also chatting idly, while Mildred was carefully placing her quiver of arrows beside her, which she would use once the monsters started their advance.

Stella had also come, and right beside her were Maple and Cinnamon, who looked just as excited as the other Wanderers, who had decided to face the Monster Outbreak from the Dimensional Gate.

The countdown timer at the center of the portal was ticking away, and a glance was enough to tell them that there were only four minutes remaining before it fully opened.

Thirteen had already contacted the Central Government and asked the soldiers who had arrived at the scene to form an encirclement two hundred meters away from the Dimensional Gate.

As much as he was confident that the teenagers he had trained could easily handle the Monster Outbreak, he still didn't want any variables from taking place, endangering the ordinary citizens of the city.

With everyone in place and ready for battle, Thirteen stood beside Cynthia with the Armored Blade Panther sitting beside him.

A few minutes later...

"Ten, nine, eight, seven," Erica said.

"Six, five, four, three," Derek muttered as he held the handle of his sword firmly in his hands.

"Two, one!" Diana shouted.

The Dimensional Gate then expanded, and monsters began to pour out from it.

"Black Goblins," Derek smirked. "Time to rumble!"

"Damn, I hate Goblins the most," Erica's face darkened as soon as she saw the Black Goblins pouring out of the Dimensional Gate.

Black Goblins were Goblins that usually lived near tainted land, corrupted by miasma.

They were more vicious and stronger than regular Goblins.

Unfortunately for them, they had entered a slaughterhouse, where none of them would be able to leave alive.

Derek and Roland didn't hesitate to charge forward, brandishing their swords and cutting the Goblins in half.

Erica floated several meters above the ground and unleashed a bombardment of Magical Bullets, making the Goblins cry out in pain and anger.

Diana dealt with the monsters that managed to get past Derek and Roland, stopping their advance.

Mildred shot arrow after arrow, targeting the heads of the Goblin and killing them with an arrow or two.

Stella also summoned her bow and fired rapidly, killing as many as she could, preventing the Black Goblins from coming close to her and her sisters.

"As expected of the Hero Party," Cynthia said with a smile. "These Black Goblins are just small fries for them."

Thirteen nodded in agreement.

In his heart, he was thinking that if the Hero Party couldn't even handle something like this, he would truly be disappointed in them, especially after what they experienced in the Absolute Heaven.

The soldiers of the Central Government could only watch in awe as the monsters were helplessly annihilated one by one.

A pile of monster corpses already littered the streets as the teenage boys and girls killed without batting an eye.

When a Rank 3 Black Goblin Warlord stepped out of the Dimensional Gate, it found itself staring at a Flaming Spear a meter away from its head.

Erica had already run out of enemies to kill, so she decided to launch attacks at the Dimensional Gate itself.

It just so happened that the leader of the Black Goblins had emerged at that time and unluckily got hit by Erica's Flame Spear, dying as soon as it came out of the portal.

In less than fifteen minutes, they had completely dealt with the Monster Outbreak. It was an amazing feat, but the members of the Hero Party were still unsatisfied and wished to kill more monsters.

"Okay, time to pack up," Thirteen said as he clapped his hand thrice. "Good work, everyone. You can leave the cleanup to the Soldiers of the Central Government."

Sherry, who had also killed a few Goblins who had decided to run in the other direction away from the Hero Party, was quite happy because she gained a few items from her kills. Although these items couldn't be compared to the items that she received from Zion, she was still satisfied because these were the items that she managed to get with her own effort.

A distance away from the happy teenagers, a Man in Black packed up the camera he had used to record the battle.

He was one of the agents that belonged to the Ashford Clan, and he just so happened to be in the area.

The Man in Black decided to send his video footage to his employer so that they could study the current progress of the Hero Party.

Since all of their members were part of the Seeded Candidates who would participate in the Dragon and Phoenix Tournament, any information regarding their battle style was as

precious as gold.

Still, he couldn't help but be surprised, seeing how much more outstanding they'd become since the last time he saw them.

'I'm sure that the Boss will like this very much,' the Man in Black thought. 'I might even get a bonus this month for this.'

The man then gave the Hero Party one last glance before leaving the scene.

Thirteen glanced in his direction and smiled faintly.

He had already told the Hero Party to only use twenty percent of their total combat strength

in this battle as part of their training.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

If the Man in Black only knew that the teenage boy had started his information warfare, he wouldn't be too happy with the footage that he got because it would only make their enemies underestimate the teenagers, who posed a genuine threat to the Heirs of the Ashford Clan.
