Chapter 51 - How Can a Rocket Make a Turn?
Chapter 51: How Can a Rocket Make a Turn?
On one side, Hero City was celebrating. On the other side, in a valley in the wilderness, the Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex roared angrily into the sky.
All the monsters that were laying in front of the Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex started to move. Their eyes were filled with fear.
This was the sixth time the Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex had attacked Hero City.
Although they did not win any of the fights, they had never lost so badly.
In the past, tens of thousands of monsters could at least reach the city wall.
However, this time, although there were 100,000 monsters, they could not even touch the city wall.
How could the Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex not be angry?
Nevertheless, the Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex knew that the monsters were not the issue.
It was very clear to it that Vincent was the issue. If Vincent was not there to help, the monsters would not have retreated so easily.
However, it was also because of the Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex itself that made the monsters retreat because of its sense of familiarity towards Vincent.
It was still its own fault in the end.
“Roar!”
The Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex roared again, and the monsters scattered instantly.
It looked at Hero City, spread its wings, and flew away.
The next day, Vincent and the others returned to Quinn School in Blazing City.
Teacher Chris and Bixby looked at the eight specially recruited students with a sad expression.
When they left, there were eleven people; however, only eight people came back alive.
Although they were prepared for something like that to happen, they still felt sad.
S-Class superpowered users! There were not many of them in the entire Falcon Nation.
Losing three people was a heavy loss but they still had to move on.
Teacher Chris took a deep breath and said, “Everyone, the main purpose of this trip was to test your combat strength.”
“After considering all aspects, the rankings are as follows…”
“First place, Vincent.”
“Second place, Chris.”
“Third place, Nabil.”
Everyone looked at Nabil with a surprised expression.
Everyone expected Vincent and Chris to be in the top two.
However, they did not expect Nabil to be in third place.
Nabil chuckled and scratched the back of his head.
“Surprise! Surprise!” he said.
Teacher Chris continued to speak, “Although Nabil’s individual combat ability is not very strong, I’m sure you’ve all seen his ability when he was fighting alongside all of you.”
Everyone nodded after listening to Teacher Chris.
Chris and Angelina had fought alongside Nabil.
They recalled the time when they rushed to the southwest side of Hero City to fight against the monsters. They were able to kill the monsters before they escaped.
Nabil’s triple A-Class superpowers were too abnormal.
Not only did he managed to take care of everyone on the battlefield, but his Holy Light Binding also saved Avril more than once.
He was also able to accurately control the monsters that ambushed him every time.
The six of them including Teacher Chris were able to withstand the attack of the southwest side monster.
The lethality caused by the 100,000 Lightning Strikes was only second to Vincent’s Hellfire.
He managed to deal extremely high damage to the monsters.
Just like what Teacher Chris had said, although his individual combat ability was not very strong, the combat ability of the whole team doubled with him around.
After they all thought through it, everyone no longer had any questions about Nabil being in third place.
As no one objected to the ranking, Teacher Chris gave them a day off.
“I’ll give all of you a day off today. At this time tomorrow, we’ll be taking the final test, combat ability assessment,” said Teacher Chris.
Chris’s eyes lit up when he heard what Teacher Chris had said. He suddenly turned to look at Vincent.
He had been looking forward to fighting Vincent for a long time. This time, he could finally fight Vincent out in the open.
Avril was also eager to give it a try.
Although she knew that there was a gap between her and Vincent, she wanted to know how big the gap was.
The combat ability assessment was a very good opportunity.
Everyone dispersed. Vincent rejected the offer to have a meal together.
He went to the Exchange Office and exchanged crystals for points. He then walked toward the superpower training room.
He had gained a lot of new insights on the battlefield in Hero City, especially regarding the evolved Hellfire.
There were still many things that he needed to practice and develop.
For example, the Flaming Wings was a problem that he discovered. Although it could be used on the battlefield, he felt like he had not fully grasped the concept.
There were still areas that could be developed.
When Vincent reached the superpower training room, he increased the gravity by four times.
The Hellfire-shaped rocket hit the target and caused the target to explode.
The entire target was blasted into darkness.
Vincent looked at the pitch-black target and fell into deep thought.
“The destructive power has increased by more than half, and the degree of control has also doubled. Should I try to make the rocket turn?”
Vincent had always wanted to try and make the rocket turn sideways.
However, every time he wanted to make a turn, there would always be a problem.
The rocket would either scatter or hit the target before he could even react.
Vincent had been trying to figure out the reason behind it. After eliminating all the factors, Vincent concluded that it was probably due to his lack of control.
As he had upgraded Hellfire, his control over Hellfire had also improved by quite a bit. This gave him the confidence to try turning the Hellfire rocket.
He would do what he thought was right. This was Vincent’s creed all along.
He summoned Hellfire and condensed it into a rocket. He then swung his hand and threw it at the left target.
The rocket flew outwards.
Vincent quickly tried to control it to make it deviate from its original position. The target was right in front of him.
“Duh!”
The rocket hit the target.
“Bang!”
It exploded with a bang.
Vincent was delighted.
Although the rocket did not hit the target directly in front of him, it still deviated from its original trajectory and hit the right edge of the left target. He almost missed the target.
Nevertheless, it proved that Vincent’s idea was correct. The rocket turning was feasible.
Vincent would think that he was dreaming if he failed again.
For the rest of the night, he was focused on making the rocket turn.
After one night, Vincent looked at the time. It was almost time to meet Teacher Chris and the others. He turned off the gravity and walked out of the superpower training room.
Although he did not sleep for a night, Vincent did not feel tired at all. On the contrary, he even felt a little excited.
When he arrived at the battlefield, no one else had arrived aside from Chris.
“Vincent, you can’t reject me this time, right? Hehe.”
Chris saw Vincent and tried to block his way.
Vincent looked at Chris and smiled bitterly.
Although he also wanted to fight Chris, he had not reached his ideal level yet.
Moreover, after looking at Chris’s appearance, Vincent would not be able to rest easy in the future if he was defeated.
Vincent was speechless.
If Vincent went easy on Chris, it would be an insult to Chris.
It was supposed to be like sparring. However, if things went wrong, they might become mortal enemies.
There was no need for that!
“Vincent, don’t you think about avoiding me. I admit that you’re very strong, but I’m not weak either!”
Chris saw Vincent’s bitter smile and was afraid that Vincent would not agree to fight him.
Vincent could only nod helplessly.
“Just once! If you lose, don’t pester me again!”
Chris was very happy when he heard Vincent agreed.
“Good! Good! Good! Just one fight and I will no longer pester you!”
“Come on! Let’s start first!”
Chris took out a piece of crystal and wanted to transform.
“Stop, stop, stop, stop!”
Vincent stopped him.
The others had not even arrived yet and Chris wanted to fight him already. What was going on?
Although Quinn did not forbid fighting, Vincent knew of the consequences of the fight. The two of them fighting would wreak havoc.
Plus, if they destroyed the school’s public facilities, they would have to pay compensation.
Vincent did not have that much money to compensate the school.
“Let’s wait for everyone to arrive before fighting. There’s no rush.”
Chris thought about it and felt that Vincent was right.
They had waited for so many days anyway. It is not too late yet.
As the two of them were talking, the others arrived one by one.
Teacher Chris and Bixby also walked over.
