Zayn burst out laughing. Everyone looked at him with a frown and could not figure out what he could still laugh about it. Was he attempting to provoke them, or had he lost his mind?Dick said with a deep voice, “Sergeant Larson, you’re a wanted criminal in the country now. If you come here, we are obliged to capture you.”When he finished his sentence, the group began to advance and formed a circle around Zayn. They were fully prepared to attack him at any moment in order to capture him!Even Liam had a very solemn expression on his face. No matter how much he valued Zayn, this situation permitted no further discussion. He had to do his duty as a soldier in the military even if it meant capturing Zayn!He would send Zayn to be tried by court-martial. Danny and the others were astounded by the situation. He hastily said, “What are you doing? Sergeant Larson told us that he had already cleared his name, so there’s no need for you to capture him anymore!”Liam shook his head and
Taio said, “Director Fann, Zayn Larson is so arrogant that he simply disregards the law! We can’t allow him to escape justice! We have to apprehend him so he can be court-martialed!”Hollis immediately chimed in and said, “Director Fann, Cruz is right. Zayn Larson brazenly disobeyed orders, and now, he still has the gall to come back so audaciously. Moreover, he viciously assaulted us before and left us with severe injuries. He’s guilty of the most heinous crimes, so we can’t let him off so easily!”“Also, Insurgent Trifecta is guilty of harboring a criminal and deliberately breaking the law. We must report them to Denali so that they can be punished!”“I don’t think it’s necessary to keep Insurgent Trifecta anymore. Look at how poorly they are managing themselves now!”A tall middle-aged man with a large figure stood in front of Taio and Hollis. He had a square face covered in stubble and seemed imposing. He looked like a malicious man. He was the director of Insurgent Duofecta, J
In Insurgent Trifecta…It had been two days since Zayn’s return. He had largely resumed his old routine, the only difference being that Joe Pennywise had promoted him to the position of chief instructor. With that, even Wolf’s Fang Squad and Dragon’s Blood Squad would have to report to him. This promotion did not strictly comply with the rules, but there were no objections from the other members of Insurgent Trifecta. It seemed even more appropriate after they had learned that the combination of Dick Cheney and Byleth Constantine was still no match for Zayn and had been defeated easily. In fact, they felt that it was an honor to receive Zayn’s guidance. “Oh no, oh no!”In the meeting room, a soldier barged in anxiously. “What are you doing? Why are you panicking?” Liam chided him at once. “Something bad is happening. The members of Insurgent Unifecta and Insurgent Duofecta are here to arrest someone!”The news left Liam slightly stunned. He said, “Speak clearly. Why are th
The people in the meeting room from Insurgent Trifecta were furious that the intruders charged in without permission. However, their fury weakened substantially when they saw Jonah. “Jonah Fann, what are you doing here barging into my Insurgent Trifecta with a bloody army? This is against the law!” Joe stood up and said coldly. Rather than answering Joe, Jonah's eyes swept across the meeting room. He furrowed his brows ever so slightly when he failed to locate Zayn. He then stared at Joe and said, “I’m here to arrest Zayn Larson. Hand him over.”He spoke in a commanding, haughty tone. He and Joe held the same military rank, yet he did not bother to show the slightest respect. He was extremely arrogant and conceited. Joe said, “Jonah Fann, you didn’t even notify me before you came barging in to arrest my man. That’s extremely audacious!”Jonah impatiently replied, “Joe, I won’t dispute over trifles with you. Zayn is a criminal and must be sent to be tried by court-martial. How d
The mood changed. Now, an air of bellicosity hung above the hall. Jonah’s men leveled the rest of the conference room with a charged, predatory look from behind him.Joe’s expression took a turn to dismay as he wailed secretly in his head. He knew very well just how stupidly powerful Jonah Fann was, and if he were being honest, he was sure that the combined strength of every single one of them in the room right now would be no match to Jonah alone. That was excluding attacks from twenty or more superior fights standing behind their primary foe!He was trapped in a dilemma. Must he give Zayn up?!Dick’s famously short fuse was already lit. Snorting, he bristled, “Declaring a war, Jonah? Did the thought ever go through your thick skull? Do you really think Daneli’s gonna let you and your grunts walk away scot-free after stirring up trouble in the Insurgent Trifecta?”Unfortunately, Jonah made it plain just how negligible Dick was to him—he hardly spared the furious man a glance. It f
This must be a test Ares and Daneli had set up for him. It would explain why they decided on clemency in the courtyard without actually issuing an official statement. What really surprised him was that Jonah Fann, the director of the Insurgent Duofecta, would personally come to apprehend him.Jonah had made his way to appear before Zayn, and immediately he felt the pulsating power pouring out of him. It was enough to convince Jonah to change from a kind of cavalier contempt to seriousness. From one perfect class to another, he could accurately tell how puissant Zayn was.He was a true prodigy! It became even more evident when he noticed Zayn’s age. The man was so young! Furthermore, his vitality was brimming and ceaseless, like the fountain of youth itself.It made him jealous.“Zayn Larson, do you know the weight of the sins you’ve committed?!” Jonah, his aura erupting out of him like furious waves breaking out of the levee.The Insurgent Trifecta members who finally arrived at t
Professionals know their opponent by the ways they perform.It was the first time Zayn was ever properly crossing hands with a perfect class elite.His last encounter with the perfect class Ezra was not a duel; it was a pursuit in which the more powerful party reserved the bulk of his powers. Ezra never thought that Zayn was his equal in that battle, so he never fought him with the proper acknowledgment a duel was to predicate upon.What about now though? Now it was different. Zayn had grown since then. He was a match for Jonah—which was why Jonah was not going to regard him lightly either. This was the reason why he went for the kill on his first attack alone. Zayn was no slouch in battles either, and so his reflexes kicked in the millisecond Jonah moved. Zayn could match Jonah’s tempo head-on.Jonah was not at all surprised that his first move missed. On the contrary, he expected it—it was a rudimentary bar for any self-respecting perfect class fighter to cross. He did not stop
Zayn kept backtracking in silence. The bystanders concluded that he was at a disadvantage and was going to lose any time now.Jonah’s patience was running low—not helped by Zayn playing the mute. With a loud sneer, he stated, “Zayn Larson, this is your last warning! Submit, or die!”Zayn’s lips remained tightly sealed, and so Jonah finally reached his boiling point. “Oh, so you want it that way, huh? Being civil makes me a weakling, does it? Be my guest.”Jonah’s figure blurred into a series of afterimages rather than a trail of visible movement. He had increased his speed!That was not all. The crowd had ceased to see a 180-centimeter-tall man lunging at his enemy. Instead, a few-kilometers-tall three-headed behemoth with a gaping maw armed with rows and rows of blood-soaked teeth loomed. It could swallow an entire hill with a single chomp! In a pitiful comparison, Zayn was about as big and strong as a locust against it. He could crush Zayn into powder with a single stomp.“No! H
