Chapter 57 The Battle Of The Outbreak Starting
Celestia was profoundly taken aback and perturbed by Zenryx's ruthless execution of Goren, which was noticeably lacking in any semblance of remorse.
Despite experiencing a strong sense of repulsion towards Goren, she did not harbor any intent or desire to take his life.
Daphne, however, did not really care about Zen killing him. She had long wanted to kill that guy, so it saves her the trouble of killing him herself.
In contrast, Fiona experienced an overwhelming sense of joy. She had the impression that Zen's actions were influenced by the comments expressed by Goren earlier.
Sensing the stares emanating from the students of the Pontiac Academy, Zen maintained an air of indifference.
Zen nonchalantly remarked, "Did anyone happen to perceive a bothersome buzzing sound like a fly just moments ago?" while smoothly returning his Katana back to his dimensional ring.
Seeing Zen's attitude, it appears that he does not possess a genuine sense of gravity towards the act of taking another person's life. They were stunned and unable to respond.
The B class professor also witnessed the whole thing, and he was also as shocked as the students.
Seeing that the Wayvern situation was resolved, he redirected his attention towards aiding the other two professors in the elimination of the dragon. At present, he is unable to allocate time for contemplating such matters.
Even if he had time to, he did not have the courage to reprimand the young master of the Raverdieu just for that. Additionally, that person was from another continent.
"Hey everyone, the herd of beasts is coming, you all should retreat now! Well, if you want to stay and be killed by those beasts, then you are free to stay." Zen communicated, effectively snapping them out of their trance like state.
Even though the students could not fathom what just happened, they reacted quickly after hearing him and hurriedly rushed out of the area.
Fiona, Daphne, and Celestia stood beside Zen, waiting for him to speak of his next action. Even though Celestia disagreed with Zen's actions just now, she did not pursue the matter any further.
"What are you three doing? You should get out of here too," Zen stated, casting a fleeting gaze at the three young girls in front of him.
"Then what about you?" Fiona spoke.
"I'm going to help those three fight the dragon and kill some beasts myself. My hands are itching for battle right now as I haven't really fought these past two months."
Upon listening to his words, the three girls inadvertently displayed a concerned expression.
Finally, Daphne expressed her concern in a voice filled with worry, stating, "Uhmm, Zen, shouldn't we retreat together? It'll be dangerous."
Celestia also agreed and said "Yes, Zen, we should just leave this matter to our families as they are coming soon anyway."
Fiona also voiced her apprehensions; however, Zen abruptly ascended into the air and entered his ship along with Eliza, disregarding their concerns altogether.
Before he entered his ship, he instructed them, "You three should go back first."
"Are you coming back at least, or are you going to leave again af—"
Before Fiona could finish speaking, Zen had already started leaving, causing her foot to stomp the ground.
The only course of action available to the three girls was to simply watch his departure as he ventured into the battleground.
A definite tone of anger could be heard in Fiona's words, "Well, let's just leave then and let him be." She sighed after conveying her statement, "There is little we can do about his behavior as it seems to be deeply rooted in his nature to do whatever the hell he wants."
Both girls nodded in agreement with her words about Zen.
"Ok, then we'll go and meet up with our families first so we can tell them about the situation. That's the only way we can help him," Daphne said.
They subsequently departed and withdrew in an attempt to rendezvous with their respective families.
Throughout the duration of the event, Xue maintained her silence from the sidelines. Zen and Xue were situated within the ship, while Zen directed Helix to prepare the weaponry system and strategically position it for the purpose of engaging the dragon.
Zen bestowed the name "Helix" upon the artificial intelligence of the ship, as it was deemed necessary to establish a separate identity instead of just calling it A.I for the sake of enhancing his personal convenience.
The professors observed the arrival of the ship and expressed a sense of reassurance upon its sighting. They naturally acquired knowledge about the events that had transpired and the person who was inside the ship.
Amidst their confrontation with the Tier one dragon, the professor of B class relayed the recent developments to them.
Despite their initial reluctance to involve Zen in the battle, their indifference grew upon seeing him equipped with a top Tier S ship. Given the escalating threat of beasts wreaking havoc on small towns and cities, their primary concern was securing as much assistance as possible. Urgency necessitated a swift resolution of the dragon situation.
Helix prepared the cannon for firing, meticulously computing the dragon's trajectory prior to unleashing a concentrated beam of light upon it.
The three professors moved out of the way in order to avoid being caught up in the blast.
'BzzzZZT Bang!'
The dragon managed to evade the attack to some extent due to its agility, yet ultimately, a breach was inflicted upon its wings by the force of the blast.
Despite the formidable defense possessed by the dragon, it remains incapable of competing against the might of an S grade cannon.
Upon witnessing the plight of the injured beasts, the three professors proceeded to rush forward and take action to continue their assault.
Due to the ship's ability to self operate under the control of Helix, Zen jumped out of the ship, leaving Xue behind. He expressed a desire to engage in combat with Tier two and Tier three creatures personally, as he is also yearning for a battle.
Unknown to them, a beast is observably lurking clandestinely in a dim corner, observing the entirety of the battle.
