Flashy Adventurer System : Show Off to Get Stronger! - Chapter 872

Chapter 872: Commander Black Dawn
The Black Dawn elites assigned to the Yon Augenn Strike Force advanced through the east entrance almost as disorderly as the Chaos Unit, with twelve hundred men from the Maverick Unit behind them to provide backup.

However, like the latter, they had a reason for their approach, though that reason was far from being called “strategy.”

There were simply no other orders from their commander except for “follow me.”

And so, they did, charging behind Shye, fully entrusting their lives and the success of their operation to him.

After all, he had never failed them before. They expected today to be no different.

It didn’t take long for Shye to meet his elites’ expectations as he approached the seemingly impenetrable enemy lines.

Six-foot-tall warriors stood shoulder to shoulder, holding tower shields that left no gaps for Shye to exploit.

The defenders activated a shared defensive skill, summoning a thick, golden barrier that seamlessly connected their formation, fortifying it and making it appear utterly unbreachable.

Cobra watched with narrowed eyes.

On the other hand, the three geezers frowned, their disdain evident as they compared the chaotic lines of the Black Dawn Unit to the well-disciplined Maverick elites behind them.

The curious ones soon got what they needed: a fairly accurate estimate of how strong the former hero was.

Shye, upon arriving within striking distance, slashed both greatswords forward, firing two [Half-moon] slashes that took out the entire first row of defenders, their defensive barrier shattering into mere mana fragments that soon dissipated into the four winds.

He tore through the panicked ranks of defenders, single-handedly dismantling two entire rows before his comrades even arrived to assist.

Everyone was naturally dumbfounded—among them, both Maverick and Alicia.

The two stood in utter disbelief at the sheer combat prowess of their son.

Maverick, in particular, remembered the moment when Shye almost got his hands on Cobra at the commanders’ meeting a few months prior, and he couldn’t help but question himself: ‘Was he really protecting his son that time? Or did he protect Cobra?’

The head commander shook his head to snap out of his thoughts.

Nonetheless, regardless of who he protected at that time, the fact remained that commanders couldn’t have such heavy and violent disagreements.

He just did what he had to.

Cobra, on the other hand, now frowned deeply. He could also do what Shye just did.

However, it was clear the rookie commander wasn’t going all out, leaving him slightly uneasy. Earlier, he had felt like he was merely toying with the young, arrogant bastard.

Now, he wasn’t so sure he could defeat Shye.

The recording did not care what was on his mind, though, simply continuing for the enjoyment of the hyped-up crowd.

With such a monster on their side, what was there to fear?

They were glad that they didn’t have to fight such a fearsome opponent.

Otherwise, who could say that the operation in Valenzia City wouldn’t result in absolute disaster?

After completely being dismantled and destroyed in under a minute, the WAA defenders scattered like flies, only managing to reform their lines when reinforcements showed up.

Targon, Baradur, Saorus, and a few other WAA agents had arrived to back the eastern entrance guard squadrons up and try to take control of the situation.

The Hadean Varsa elites were fully knowledgeable when it came to heroes and other WAA agents, so they recognized that the lineup of enemies in front of the Black Dawn and Maverick elites was nothing short of terrifying.

Two heroes, a guard captain on par with heroes in combat prowess, along with a few renowned titled adventurers and champions wasn’t something any of the commanders could scoff at, including Cobra.

Meanwhile, the Black Dawn Unit only had Commander Black Dawn and three competent squadron captains by his side.

They were vastly outnumbered in terms of top-tier combatants, or so the crowd thought.

The next moment was something that would forever be etched on their minds.

Shye, not giving a single flying f*ck about the opponents’ lineup, charged alone like he always did.

“Reckless brat!”

“Preposterous!”

“Naive!”

These were the words exclaimed by the three geezers, who couldn’t believe that Shye would still advance despite facing such powerful and renowned opponents.

If it were them, they would turtle up and request reinforcements, waiting for their allies to arrive before counterattacking once the balance of top-tier combatants tipped in their favor.

Targon and Baradur immediately sprang into action, intercepting the charging Hadean Varsa commander.

This was exactly what the geezers feared would happen.

What they didn’t anticipate, however, was the results of the clash.

Shye suddenly sped up, and before the guard captain and the hero realized, their heads were already flying through the air.

Mouths opened wide and remained that way for a good while.

The Guard Captain Targon and Baradur Pentagon of the Holy Sword on the screen were but mere imitations.

However, their attributes were enhanced to the point where there was little difference from the original, except for their trump card skills and items.

It was only after a loud, annoying laugh echoed across the entire function hall that everyone managed to snap back to reality.

“HAHAHAHAHA! If anyone can act recklessly, it’s my boss, the one and only mighty Commander Black Dawn!” Seira roared, turning her head toward the three elderly commanders.

She then shifted her focus to Cobra, a playful smile spreading across her tiny face.

“Clown Cobra, don’t forget, you brought this on yourself.”

Soon after, she tuned back into the recording, feeling extremely satisfied to have fulfilled her duties as the ultimate underling after such a long time.

Shye, Maia, Shirley, and even Chaos were, of course, amused by her antics.

They couldn’t help but inwardly chuckle and giggle at Cobra’s humiliating situation.

The troublesome commander wanted to retort, but he had to admit, he was shaken by the combat prowess that Shye displayed.

A trace of panic crept into his heart, though he didn’t want to acknowledge it.

In the end, Cobra could only leave the function hall, punching a hole through the metallic walls in anger.

He then reached into his spatial bag and retrieved a certain purple pill.

“You bastards think I’ll let that brat humiliate me? Chaos, old man, screw your damned plans! You’ll regret putting me in this position…” Cobra muttered, gritting his teeth as he stared at the pill in his hands.
