Chapter 31: Humanoid monsters

"Let’s find it and kill it with our superpowers! Who’s with me?!"

"Me!"

"Bring me too!"

"That’s right! Let’s haunt them!"

"We can kill it with our superpowers!"

The students in superhuman class gathered around Melody and Kyzer and screamed to find the demonic creature along with everyone, so they could haunt it. Everyone seemed enthusiastic about killing it.

"Please calm down!" A thunderous voice found its way to the crowd and silenced them.

It was from Instructor Jeff Koffer from the superhuman class. He was a former instructor of the elite military unit but was transferred to the superhuman class to teach these young superhumans.

"Listen! No one is allowed to leave their class. We received information that the demonic creature this time was unlike any other demonic creature that had attacked the city so far. The principal advised everyone to stay for your own good. Don’t worry, the school already contacted the SWORD Corps. They were now sending their men to deal with the demonic creature."

After that first incident with the demonic shark, the appearance of demonic creatures in the city wasn’t surprising anymore.

After silencing the crowd, the instructor turned to Kyzer. "Did they contact you?"

"Yes, Instructor Jeff, just now I received a message from the Corps’ head. I’ll be helping them!"

Instructor Jeff Koffer nodded his head in understanding.

"Alright, aside from Kyzer. Everyone must stay here!"

"What? No way! We want to fight too!"

"That’s right! What’s good to have a superpower if you can’t even use it to kill those monsters!"

"I believed in my superpower! I can defeat those monsters!"

"We can’t let Kyzer take all the chances!"

Some of the students showed disagreement with the instructor.

Instructor Jeff Koffer’s brow twitched.

"Idiots! Do you think you’re untouchables?! Kyzer already has experience in dealing with those monsters while you don’t. Besides, what can you do against those demonic creatures without battlesuits?"

The students were silenced by his outburst. They probably realized the importance of battlesuits against the demonic creatures.

Seeing the students calming down, Instructor Jeff Koffer turned to Kyzer once again.

"Be careful."

Kyzer nodded and said, "Thanks." After that, he left in haste.

At that moment, some of Melody’s friends were glancing around asking, "Where’s Miss Melody?"

It seemed no one noticed when she left in secret.

After leaving, Kyzer’s earring let up. Then in front of his face, a holographic voice message from the SWORD headquarters appeared. This time, it was about the source of the ominous aura. The digital person in the holographic box reported that the source was perceived near the class of normal humans.

"What? From the ordinary human class? My old class?!"

He was so surprised when he heard the message from the headquarters.

Kyzer secretly thought that Melody was right. The demonic creature was nearby. In terms of experience, she might be even greater than him.

[Yes.]

"I’ll go there right away!"

[The head instructed you to wait for the main squad to arrive.]

"My old classmates and teachers are in danger! I can’t waste time standing here without doing anything! I need to save them!"

There was a moment of silence before the digital person spoke once again.

[The Corps’ head understood. But be sure to retreat if the enemy is too strong for you.]

"Okay!"

Without wasting time, he quickly activated his battlesuit by tapping on the wrist accessory under his sleeve. It was a rune item developed by the Research Corps. The earring was also one of their creations.

Meanwhile, the students in the normal human class were in chaos.

Grr~~

Grr~~

"Shit! What are they?!"

"Don’t come near me! Please go away!"

"Kyahh! Help me!"

Three students found themselves trapped in a dead end at the back of the school gymnasium. In front of them were the humanoid monsters.

For some reason, these creatures suddenly appeared and attacked everyone.

Humanoid monsters with dark blue skin rose up from the ground and started attacking the students they caught in sight.

Students who fell victim to these creatures became one of them.

The three students were eventually saved by Melody who arrived in the nick of time. Even without her battlesuit, she used a specialized pistol, which could be activated using mana to fire mana-powered laser bullets, to defeat the humanoid monsters.

This specialized pistol was another one of the few weapons the Research Corps invented.

"It’s Miss Melody from the superhuman class!" The only girl among the three said in an excited voice as soon as she recognized her. "I am your fan!" She stated.

The two boys looked at Melody in awe. "Woah, the Ice Princess..." They didn’t expect they would be saved by the number one beauty from the superhuman class.

Melody slightly frowned. This moniker was not something she chose for herself. She disliked hearing it because it felt like she was an unapproachable person.

What if Kyzer believed she was a cold person?

Before Melody could say something, the humanoid monsters she thought she already defeated rose up to their feet once again and started growling again.

Grr~~

Grr~~

"What?!"

"They are still alive!"

Melody quickly aimed her pistol and shot them once again. She made sure to hit their heads this time.

The moment holes appeared in their heads, they fell to the ground once again. But sooner than she could breathe, the creatures had once again back on their feet seconds after they fell.

’What?!’ Melody widened her eyes in shock. "Everyone! Run away from here!" She shouted.

"Eh? B-but how about you, Miss Melody?!" The female student asked.

"I need to figure out how to deal with them!"

"B-but..."

"Fast!" Melody shouted.

"Let’s go!" One of the male students urges.

"O-okay! But be careful, Miss Melody, and thank you very much!"

They ran away after saying those words.

Looking at their retreating figures, Melody sighed.

Grr~~

Grr~~

The monsters backed to their feet once more after she knocked them.

Looking back at the monsters, Melody gritted her teeth.

She hated admitting it but these creatures were something she had no idea how to kill. Maybe if she had her Valkyria suit, she could easily deal with them. However, the Valkyria suit was only available to use when they were on a mission defending the barrier.

It seemed while Melody was locked dealing with the humanoid monsters, the members of SWORD Corps sent by the organization found themselves dealing with the same type of enemies as well. They just arrived when they found the superhuman students at the gate area fighting against these unusual monsters. They hastily helped them when they noticed the battle wasn’t favorable to the students.

They were quite shocked when they saw their enemies’ figures. They didn’t look like those demonic fishes they had fought most of the time.

These monsters in front of them were more like zombies.

Soon they realized that these humanoid monsters were not easy to deal with.

"Damn! They keep coming back?!"

"And we already knocked them ten times!"

Everyone looked exhausted.

"Step aside!" A tan burly man shouted.

"Captain?!"

"Let me show you how to deal with these creatures!"

His colleagues immediately step aside. The captain’s black and yellow battlesuit discharges a blinding aura. The next moment, in front of him, a sphere of what seemed like a white aura took form.

"That is the captain’s Death Ray! Everyone, step back much farther!" A female companion shouted hastily upon seeing it.

When they heard it, everyone quickly followed. But on their faces, they looked excited.

"The famous Death Ray?!"

"Wow, we’re witnessing it for real!"

The superhuman male students exclaimed in excitement.

As soon as the captain shot the sphere ray forward, it was followed by an explosion. Then they saw the humanoid monsters turned into wisps of dark smoke.

"Oh my god! The captain’s Death Ray is truly amazing!"

"Right right!" The students looked very happy.

However, contrary to them, the members of the SWORD Corps looked bothered.

"So to finish them, we needed to pulverize them?"

"That’s not good news. Killing these enemies is harder than we thought."

After firing the Death Ray, the captain looked exhausted.

"Captain, are you okay?" The female companion asked.

"Yes, I am fine."

Right after he said that, they heard people shouting for help.

The captain quickly stabilized his breathing. "Fast. Contact Kyzer and tell him to find the source. I believe once we kill it, all these minions will cease to exist. That’s the only way to deal with all of these!"

"Okay, sir!"

"Alright, escort these kids to safety and the rest will come to me to save as many people as we can!"

"Aye, sir!"

After he received the instruction from the captain’s squad, Kyzer immediately searched for the source. He found himself near an abandoned warehouse at the dilapidated area of the campus.

For some reason, following the ominous energy in the air, his feet brought him there.
