Instructor Omina’s voice came from outside the building, and then a black warship appeared hovering overhead.
The killers hidden in the shadows, searching for their targets, immediately took notice—not just them, even the onlookers on the ground below realized what was happening and scattered in all directions.
Clearly, they all recognized that the person ambushed tonight was no ordinary individual.
The Elbert Military Academy’s insignia was clearly marked on the warship. Now that their people were being assaulted in Zone 23, there would certainly be no peaceful resolution.
At this point, numerous people were cursing whoever was behind the attack.
Instructor Omnia, accompanied by her team, descended from the warship. Medical personnel in protective gear immediately provided first aid to Celia, and then swiftly carried her onto the warship.
Everything proceeded in an orderly and efficient manner, everyone attending to their responsibilities.
"Alright, now it’s time for revenge."
Instructor Omnia gestured behind her and immediately, a backpack was tossed to her, which she then threw to Lin Fu, "Put on a new Combat Suit. We had already surrounded and sealed off the entire Zone 23 when we arrived. Now, it’s time to show these people that the Elbert Military Academy does have a temper."
Lin Fu felt a surge of excitement. She had been filled with anger, further inflamed by Mervin’s critical condition, with no outlet for her rage.
Instructor Omnia’s words struck a chord with her.
"Good, I’ve been waiting for you to say that."
Lin Fu changed into a new Combat Suit. It was different from her previous one, and she discovered that it was a Series 8, a superior model, exclusively provided for instructor-level personnel.
"You performed very well tonight, saving Celia was commendable: praise is in order, but don’t get arrogant."
Instructor Omnia eyed Zone 23, which had become like a ghost town upon the warship’s arrival, her gaze bloodthirsty, and said with a menacing air, "But for a soldier, what’s most important is real combat. No matter how good the training, it’s worthless. Simulation victories are useless. Real combat is the true test of a soldier."
Lin Fu snapped to attention and saluted.
With that, both of them activated the energy devices on their Combat Suits and leaped down, vanishing into the night sky.
Fu Yang was dumbfounded as he turned to the Elbert personnel still stationed on the rooftop, "Aren’t you going with them?"
They had all previously assisted Instructor Omnia in training Lin Fu, witnessing her true combat capabilities. If she couldn’t handle this small matter, she certainly didn’t deserve to be considered for the Legendary Mecha Marshal Defo had left to the academy.
For those who lurked in the shadows, shunned by the light, it was spent in uneasy apprehension.
The group that had set up the ion cannon, believing victory was in their grasp and that capturing the two girls would be simple—they thought using an ion cannon was overkill like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. They hadn’t expected not only to fail in killing their targets but also to provoke such a relentless retaliation.
Their escape routes were blocked, and behind them, they were hunted by two female maniacs.
The several safe houses they had prepared in advance were all discovered and systematically eradicated, the people inside unable to escape.
Lin Fu had intended to spare some to interrogate for information, but this was overruled by Instructor Omnia.
"These people are desperate criminals hired for dirty work, they have no idea who’s really behind this. Our goal is to send a warning. Only by striking terror into them, will they think twice before accepting another job to ambush anyone from Elbert Academy, considering whether it’s worth risking their lives for the money."
Lin Fu understood and ceased to hold back.
This was her first time participating in a mission, and she felt good about it. She thought, she was probably destined to be a soldier.
