'It seems I can run for president or politics with my eloquence.' Lucian rubbed his chin and thought jokingly. He didn't expect that he would be able to command people that could literally defy the law of physics someday. And they were listening to his words. 'I need to improve my persuasion and acting skills further. And I might be able to convince a person to commit suicide.'

He couldn't help but chuckle as he thought of this. Of course, he wouldn't do such a heinous thing.

Just as he was thinking, a hand patted his shoulders. When he turned around, he saw a man handing him a piece of paper.

"Eugene... This is the paper that contains all the abilities of forty-eight degu users. Though some of them didn't really want to write their abilities, as revealing the ability of a degu person is taboo, because it can reduce their combat effectiveness if others already knew their ability." The guy introduced himself.

'Hmmm, so his name is Eugene?' Lucian looks at the brown-haired guy in front of him. And he could feel that the other party might be one of the strongest in the forty-eight. He didn't know why he feel that way, but the brown-haired wasn't simple.

Lucian gave out a smile and says. "But they don't have a choice, right? If they didn't cooperate, we could only become food to the monster."

"Only if the monster finds us." A sudden voice interrupted them. When they looked around, they saw a guy close to them that has a bandage on one of his feet.

"I really hope it won't." Eugene sighed. "I could still remember how its tentacles killed people easily, like chicken. It takes pleasure in killing, unlike other monsters who only kill for food. And the horrible thing, this monster was intelligent. It's almost as if we're facing another person!"

"That's definitely true." Lucian couldn't help but agree. What's worse, the monster hated him now to the fullest. 'Damn, I hope it doesn't target me first.'
Then he looked at the other party's foot. "What happened to that? What's your name?"

"Well, I was injured. I'm Joshua, and I'm a speedster." Joshua offered his hands. Although he dislikes that guy for his manipulative behavior. But they were in the same camp now, and they have to get along with each other if they want the group to have a harmonious atmosphere.

And he has to admit that Lucian has the required leadership qualities that could command a group of people that has the ability to do whatever they want with their powers.

Joshua knew that if it was him. He couldn't do the same. So Lucian would play the role to keep the group in check.

'Well, speedster? What the fuck is that? Does that mean his power is related to speed or something? Damn, if his foot is injured, what's the use of his speed if he can't run?'

"My pleasure... Please take care of me." Lucian shook the latter's hand with a polite smile on his face. Then he thought for a moment and asked. "Doesn't that mean you can't put your power into play with your foot injured like that?"

"That's a misunderstanding. My power doesn't only improve my running ability, but also my reaction speed. Even if my regular walking is faster than the normal speed of the fastest carriage. And more importantly, my reaction speed would help me to dodge and attack faster." As he said this. He stared at Lucian for a moment and continued. "Basically, I'm not that useless."

Eugene, on the sidelines, carefully listened with a pondering expression. 'I hope with the forty-eight of us, we can suppress that monster. And if push comes to shove, I could only use my trump card.'

"So now what's the plan?" A black-skinned man wearing an eye patch on his right eye looked at Lucian with an inquiry.

BANG!

Before Lucian could even respond. The steel gate on the entrance flew out and collided with the wall, which cracked its surface. The cracks spread far and wide and cause debris to fly in different directions.

"What happened? Did the monster arrive!?"




"Plss don't panic! Even if the monster arrived, we have degu users that will protect us!" Lucian quickly tried to control the crown and prevent them from panicking.

Then Lucian turned his head at the entrance of the stadium, but a cloud of dust blocked him and covered the area.

'Damn monster! he found us this fast?' Lucian quickly ran on the group of degu users. If the monster laid his eyes on him. He was sure that he was deader than dead. "Guys, you know what to do!"

The degu users stared at the steel gate embedded in the wall with serious eyes. Such a strength, they know how much force one would need to do it.

"This monster had at least an A-rank physique. We need to be more careful when dealing with it." Joshua activated his power and the surrounding immediately slowed down.

The people were like a picture in a painting: red lightning, blue lightning, yellow lightning started to emerge on Joshua's body as he moves. Those flashes of lightning were the manifestation of velocity force that improves his velocity. Yet, because of his injured foot, he could only walk, significantly reducing the speed he could go.

Suddenly, he saw a teenager in his peripheral vision jump on the ceiling. Then, a bow and arrow made of blue lightning appeared on his hands, and his pupils became blue and had the shape of lightning.

Then he also saw the group of degu users release their abilities one by one. Some of them have fire abilities, some have ice, and some of them could throw light beams. Then what caught his eyes was a dark blue ice monster that was summoned out of nowhere. Towering five meters and it has wooden claws on both sides. But even then, he could feel the sharpness of it.

The panic of the crown disappeared as they saw the amazing display of abilities in front of them. They won't have such a magnificent scene in their entire life and it would become a core memory for them.

It also gave them hope and confidence. They felt that even if the sky collapsed, there are giants that would hold it for them!
