A minute later, Luis, who was using his perception to scan the surroundings, uttered.
"On guard, everyone! Arrow Lizards! 40 meters at 1 O'clock and 55 meters at 11! Bonnie will block the ones at 11, while Cobert and Sufi will deal with the rest first!"
As soon as his command sounded, the three of them acted instantly.
Even without Luis' guidance, Cobert had already found the location of the Arrow Lizards. It's just that he couldn't reveal his true strength. So, he had to act as such. With light steps, he avoided the soil damp in poison and rushed forward.
*Bam! *
Bonnie leaped on a tree trunk and after finding an area with solid ground, she smashed her huge hammer attracting the attention of Arrow Lizards. At the same time blocking their escape by trapping them using the rock wall.
The Arrow Lizards who couldn't find their enemies shot their tails at the huge rock walls.
*Swish!* (x4)
The sharp projectiles managed to punch holes through the huge rocks. Cracks appeared, and the rocks crumbled. By the time those Arrow Lizards could escape climbing the rubbles. Bonnie had already arrived.
"Don't run! Take my hammer!"
With that said, she swung her huge hammer and smashed at them one by one in a fluid motion until they were all turned into a meat paste.
*Bang! *
*Squelch*
*Bang! *
*Squelch*
...
"That should be all."
She looked around to see if there were any more monsters left nearby. Not finding anything, her attention returned to her hammer, whose surface was covered in a slimy greenish liquid.
"Uh... Disgusting!"
With a frown, she adjusted her grip on the handle and a clicking sound sounded.
*Click*
The next second, the hammer head started vibrating and all the dirty substances slid off the hammer without any resistance.
"Now that's better!"
The frown on her face eased, and she left in the direction of Luis and the others.
By the time she arrived there, the battle had already ended. Once again, there was no need for Luis to act, and everything went over smoothly.
Like a slap on their faces, Sera's information was confirmed, and a student died right under their noses. Even if that dead student was a disgusting rapist, the kidnapping of Bonnie was a big humiliation for them, the S-Rank-Powerhouses, who guarantee the security of the Oracle Academy.
Now that there was a possibility of another attack today, they decided to redeem themselves and capture the attackers. Otherwise, this matter would be a big shame for their entire lives.
At this time, the control room received a message signal.
*Beep!*
[Team 3 is advancing towards the territory of Poison Moths! Within 5 minutes, they will face a swarm of hundreds of Poison Moths! Whether to stop them or not? Instruction requested!]
"So courageous?! They dare to face an entire swarm!"
It should be known that in the previous classes, all the students have been repeatedly warned about several dangerous situations as well as some of the most life-threatening locations inside Vernos Dungeon. One of those situations is facing a swarm in the poisonous zone.
Now, a team is taking such drastic action, going against their repeated warnings to challenge a swarm. How could the Professors not be shocked?
"Team 3? It should be from the Leviathan Class!"
"It seems so... Professor Olivia! Make a decision! Who are members of Team 3?"
All the professors' attention was now on Professor Olivia as they waited for her to speak. From some of their looks, they were obliviously waiting for her to call that team back and let them retire early.
"Team 3? Is it Luis' team?" Hena asked in doubt.
"Yes," Olivia nodded, then thought for a moment and responded. "Don't stop them! Stay on standby! Wait until you find them in a life-threatening danger before you step up for the rescue!"
Her response not only shocked the rescue staff but also some of the Professors who stared at her in disbelief.
[... Y-yes.]
Olivia heard the hesitation in his voice, so she continued. "I will send another staff to assist you."
[Much obliged, Professor! I shall continue watching them!]
*Beep!*
"Professor Olivia, aren't you too confident in them?"
They all naturally heard Olivia's response to Hena's question and now understood who was behind this neurotic behaviour.
Luis Suarez! The Rank-1 student of the first year! Got the hidden achievement in the entrance exam!
"Even if there's rank one student in the team. What about other members?"
"Yes! In case of danger, Luis might be able to escape, but the other members of the team can't be as strong as him, right?"
"As a commander, he disregarded the lives of his team members! He should be disqualified!"
They all felt that, although Luis himself was strong. He was too ambitious and overconfident, as he was risking the lives of his team members because of his decision. So, they wanted Olivia to call them back and teach him a lesson.
