Chapter 578 Cutting a Tier 4 with a Single Swing
Chapter 578 Cutting a Tier 4 with a Single Swing
The groups ended up going to the trucks as they headed to the plain where the rhino was.
Gillian had been glaring at Clovis the whole time, as if he was trying to pick a fight with him. He couldn't care less about Aileen, like her opinion didn't matter.
His face was literally saying that he would be using his family and dealing with Clovis.
In another truck, Erwin was fuming. Not only did he underestimate his captain, but he also disrespected his girlfriend.
Jay simply said, "Don't mind it. You have your time to shine, so leave the first one to him."
Both of them knew that Clovis wanted to direct Gillian's hatred to himself, which he could understand. He just hated the fact he was powerless that he couldn't take that role.
Fortunately, the journey was smooth. There were some beasts, but the division in charge of protection managed to kill them all.
Eventually, they reached the plain where the Tier 7 rhino was found.
"We are about to arrive. There is an increase in the number of beasts in the area. We'll now be advancing on foot. All people, go to your respective positions." A man's voice echoed on the radio, giving them instruction.
The trucks came to a halt as the people started to go off, heading to their respective positions. With so many people, the group could advance by forming the two flanks. These left and right flanks would allow the group in the middle to advance with ease.
Clovis was stationed on the left flank with the other three groups in his division.
A Tier 6 middle-aged man came to them and shouted, "Your task is important. It is to protect the main party from all beasts coming from the left. Don't mess up!"
Gillian suddenly raised his hand and said with a smug smile. "There is no leader in this division. I can become their leader and command them so that we can move in a more organized way."
The middle-aged man could see through Gillian's intention. He simply said, "There won't be any leader in both left and right flanks. You are free to move according to your discretion."
Gillian was startled. His decision was the correct one, but why would he reject it? This was his way of showing his superiority, but how dare this man stop him?
He gritted his teeth.
Clovis, on the other hand, glanced to the middle, noticing that they were bringing out a lot of huge weapons. Considering they didn't have a Tier 7 human among them, it wasn't to use all those weapons. The Tier 6 humans would be keeping the Tier 7 rhino at bay until it was weakened enough for them to sweep in.
And to protect all those weapons and arrange them in a fight, most of them had to focus in the middle. As expected, the protection division would be taking care of their mess if they screwed up.
"Hahahaha. No beasts are my match!" Gillian shouted while glancing to the side, trying to pick on Clovis.
Aileen and the others had to work around him, making sure there were no beasts that slipped past them.
Clovis, on the other hand, remained in his position.
Christina charged forward and stopped several beasts with her shield. When they wanted to continue, Christina banged their heads with her shield. It carried so much force that they ended up getting stunned.
After that, Luci struck them one by one, killing them at a speed not inferior to Gillian's.
"Why are you not fighting? Are you even a man?!" Gillian shouted, glaring at Clovis.
Clovis looked at him with a dumbfounded expression. Couldn't he see that they were being overwhelmed?
If not for Aileen and the others, he couldn't do anything he wanted like this.
Hence, he ignored him and pointed to the left. "Melody. Take care of the ones over there."
"Got it." Melody nodded.
Instead of fighting by himself, Clovis continued managing his group to make sure there was no gap in their defense. It frustrated Gillian so much that he realized he should punish Clovis by himself.
And the opportunity came to him when he spotted a Tier 4 boar coming toward him. He could kill it, but Gillian actually punched the boar with strength only enough to shift that direction to the side, specifically Clovis' direction.
"Oops. I didn't manage to kill it," he shouted.
"!!!" Aileen was startled, thinking about assisting Clovis.
"Maybe you should have protected him better. No, he should have been stronger. Such a man doesn't deserve to be served by you." Gillian laughed at Christina and the others.
Before Aileen could leap to Clovis, the latter let out a sigh.
"Is this... some sort of joke?" Clovis didn't mind fighting him, but he shouldn't have messed with the formation, especially since the leader wanted it and they had no captain to manage all four groups.
Clovis flicked his blade with his thumb, unsheathing it a bit. His other hand grabbed the handle and made a swift swing upward, releasing his ranged attack that now traveled far enough to cut the boar into two.@@@@
