“Tell me, are you the one known as the Cold-Hearted Sniper? The one said to have taken first place from the awakened of the other regions despite being a Common-rank talent with no weapon affinity?”After a few seconds of all of them staring at Jake like that, Toby could no longer hold himself back and asked the question that had been on all their minds.After hearing what sounded like his full biography, Jake was rather surprised that they knew so much about him when the battle had only happened yesterday.“Well, I don’t know about the name Cold-Hearted Sniper, but yes, I’m the one who took first place in the Phoenix Academy battle simulation test yesterday. And yes, like I said, I have no weapon affinity,” Jake answered with a smile, trying his best to remain as humble as ever.However, deep inside, he couldn’t deny the joy he felt from being recognized.“Are you kidding me? This is the best thing that has ever happened to us. You’re the hero of the entire Region F Army base. That o

Bang!!!The sound of battle rang out.Though the soldier-rank Shadow Wolves had managed to bypass the leaks in the weak energy shield covering Region F and invade the lower streets, however the Commander-rank shadow wolves couldn’t simply sneak through those same gaps in the energy shield to enter.In order for them to gain entry with their massive body, they would have to break through the energy shield and invade the city properly. However, it wasn’t as if the captains of the Region F Army would just stand by and watch the alpha and its other four Commander-rank Shadow Wolves strike at the energy shield without acting too.That was why they stood on a rooftop close to the towering walls of the F Region, almost as if they were locked in a standoff.However, while this situation wasn’t beneficial to the Shadow Wolf pack leaders, it wasn’t beneficial to the Region F captains either, because they wanted nothing more than to move toward the lower streets like the rest of the soldiers und
Strange Team.
Boom!!!The loud sound of an explosion rang out as Toby finally picked his target, he chose the Shadow Wolf at the back and opened fire.The repeated blasts of his RPG 6 shells rang out continuously, causing the wolves to finally realize that they were being pincered.However, even after noticing this, the Shadow Wolf currently being attacked by Toby turned backward to locate its attacker, but from the other side, Lucien had already taken aim and fired his Beam-type (common rank)weapon—the Thermal Lance.A long beam of light, glowing with a shade that looked almost pink but not quite, smashed into the Shadow Wolf from the opposite rooftop, causing it to groan in pain as the weapon’s Scorcher perk activated.A continuous sustained fire from the Thermal Lance applies the Scorcher effect, weakening the target and increasing the damage it received, because of that effect, the rest of Toby’s RPG bombardment caused far more damage than usual, and the final shell sent the wolf flying away.A
Double Figure Kills Again.
From where he stood, Zack could tell that the Alpha Wolf of the Shadow pack seemed unsettled, the smirk it had kept on its face all this while had changed, and in the next moment, it spread out its mental energy, trying to ease it into the energy shield that covered the whole city.However, all it caused was another burst of friction and sparks in the air, the moment its mental energy touched the energy shield, it was blocked completely, unable to slip into the city despite the shield’s already weakened state.“Something has definitely happened,” Zack mumbled, seeing how the wolf’s gaze toward him had turned even more glaring, though he didn’t know exactly what was happening, he was still happy. Because anything that could lead to the unrest of the Alpha of this Shadow Wolf pack was a thing of joy to him at that exact moment, the soldier responsible for keeping the kill tally finally spoke.“The Scorpio Team has added four more kills to their count.” Immediately that statement came o
Busted Scheme.
In a certain military base, three men sat together, drinking. Among them, the one who seemed to hold the highest rank had a large belly.These were among the top brass of authority in the C Region Army, the man with the large belly was a commander rank officer, while the other two men before him were captains of the Region C Army.Unlike a rundown sector like F Region, where all army personnel served under one banner, the same could not be said for Region C’s military, not only were there many factions, but even the soldiers were divided based on which commander their captains had pledged loyalty to.And currently, the commander present was waiting for a reply to the ultimatum he had given F Region military.He was well aware that the E Region Army wasn’t much better than the F Region military in any way, so they wouldn’t go out of their way to render help—especially when they found every opportunity to look down on the F Region, to them this was a perfect opportunity for the F region

The One Behind It All.
“In the battle against the Shadow Wolves today, we asked for help from the other regions, but reinforcements were not sent.”“Once again, our soldiers went out to help citizens evacuate as quickly as possible, and in the process, we suffered because of the mistakes of the other regions once more. Today, we have about fifty-nine injured soldiers in the infirmary and eight confirmed dead.”“And from what I heard, the count would have been far more disastrous if the teams hadn’t come together to form one collective unit. For that I’m extremely proud of you all.”“I know many of you are probably wondering why I’m starting with the bad news first when our motto in the Region F Army is good news before bad news.”“But here it is. It’s because I want each and every one of you to understand that despite the fact that we won today, we also lost good people.”“And some children have been made orphans because of the duty we carry, some of the fallen don’t even have families left to mourn them.”

The crowd watching was simply waiting for something to happen—anything that would make either the captain or the one called Jake speak up. However, it was clear that none of them were ready to explain anything.That was how Jake accepted the sum of 30,000 Alliance Coins on behalf of the team, after that, James came up to address the soldiers instead while Zack asked the top three teams to follow him and Lionel.After they reached the back, the second and third-ranked teams, along with the members of the Scorpio Team, were led by Lionel toward another clearing, leaving Zack and Jake alone.“Follow me,” Zack said.Jake followed him as they started walking toward another zone. Very soon, they entered a large room, and Jake saw the bodies of demonic beasts all around, however, the most noticeable ones were the many Shadow Wolf bodies sprawled across the ground, showing that no work had been done on them yet.The moment they entered, Silas turned toward them and saluted, with him were othe
Meeting The Whole Team.
After the question Zack asked, it took him a while to think hard before he finally came to the conclusion that it wouldn’t be a bad idea to make Jake a permanent team leader.Before this, due to Jake’s mission quota, Zack had been planning to place him in an experienced team, hoping they would teach him a thing or two and also try to leave kills for him whenever the situation allowed it—provided they weren’t in a dangerous setting like earlier.However, before he could do that, Jake had already managed to lead a smaller team by himself, and that team had topped every other team in Region F by a wide margin, which shows that there might not be many things they could teach him after all what is ;left is for Jake to get experience by himself.The promise Jake had shown, combined with the fact that he now possessed a Legendary implant that allowed him to surpass the damage limit an ordinary Common-rank talent would be constrained by, made Zack feel two clashing emotions.On one hand, he r
Two Different World.
A week had passed since the new students entered the dorms, and they had already faced a little bullying from the seniors, who seemed more interested in getting in their faces than anything else.More than that, the gap in talent among the accepted students was already beginning to show, though there were many normal classes focused more on practical knowledge that they needed to learn, however; in comparison to the combat classes, those knowledge-based classes felt almost secondary.And with the amount of dedication required for the combat courses, many new students were already dropping out of the practical courses just to give more time to the demanding combat classes.In a certain dorm room, Aiden was putting on his T-shirt, as he was planning to go to the mine area, the mine area was a green-tier hunting zone under the academy’s control. They allowed students to go there and practice their skills against unclassified and soldier rank beasts while they also have a chance to get r
