Chapter 326 Secret Battle
The international group continued their self-introductions.
A muscular black boxer was named Black Jack and a foul-mouthed parkour teenager nicknamed Skateboard.
After all seven members of the other group had introduced themselves, the Veridiania group looked a bit stunned.
A family of martial arts experts.
An experienced boxer.
A parkour teenager.
People with superpowers without any modifications?
The international group was really strong!
"Coach."
Gino said in a gruff voice, "Why does the international group have seven people, while our group only has six?"
Violet Moon, who had always been cold, finally showed a slight smile, "The seventh member of the Veridiania group doesn't need basic training. She's very strong and will join us later!"
Everyone nodded blankly, still somewhat puzzled!
"Everyone, you've all introduced yourselves, but don't forget about me!"
The blonde, blue-eyed coach of the international group stepped forward slightly.
He had an elegant demeanor and a gentle tone, like a spring breeze.
He smiled slightly, "I am the coach of the international group, from BioGen Innovations, responsible for leading the international group!"
Saying this, he approached the members of the Veridiania group, shaking hands one by one, very politely!
"My name is Brandon. Nice to meet you all!"
The man smiled kindly and shook hands with Elbert, "Hello, Elbert!"
Mysteriously, the moment their hands touched, Elbert felt a tingling sensation.
It was as if a weak electric current swept through his body!
"Huh?"
Robert Williams exclaimed, "This guy has some power. The moment you touched, your brainwaves were affected!"
"It felt like a kind of probing!"
Elbert kept a smile on his face, his brow slightly furrowed, but he inadvertently saw Brandon's wrist!
A colorful clown tattoo!
"Robert Williams, check him out!"
"Already did. Brandon, from VictoriaDek State, an ordinary teacher who had a car accident and was in a coma for seven months. Then, he mysteriously recovered and joined Stellar Genetics Corporation!"
"Now he's an employee of BioGen Innovations!"
Robert Williams's voice was puzzled, "The strangest thing is, the hospital where he stayed during his coma is the same one where Card Club intermediary Kofi was hiding!"
Elbert was even more confused!
A colorful Joker?
But how could he have been an ordinary teacher before?
And according to the records, he was a very proper teacher!
At 30 years old, he hadn't even left VictoriaDek State!
Could the tattoo be just a coincidence?
Elbert released his combat awareness, sensing the coach Brandon!
But he found no threat!
A regular civilian body, not even a modified human!
Another thing that couldn't be understood!
It seems BioGen Innovations was really mysterious!
"Let's not waste any more time, let's start the team training immediately!"
Brandon smiled and led the international group out of the basketball court!
When they left, the atmosphere changed instantly!
The basketball court was left with only the six members of the Veridiania group and their coach, Violet Moon!
Violet Moon's expression became serious, and she paced as she spoke, "I've thoroughly checked your backgrounds. You are all native Veridiania citizens with clean backgrounds!"
"So, it's time to tell you the real situation of BioGen Innovations Hero Academy!"
"Although BioGen Innovations is widely promoted in Veridiania, our Veridiania government has not allowed them to act recklessly!"
"Under the strong negotiation of the Veridiania government, the Veridiania War Department has entered BioGen Innovations!"
"And I am from the Veridiania War Department!"
"Currently, BioGen Innovations is actually divided into two factions internally!"
"One is BioGen Innovations itself, and the other is our Veridiania War Department!"
"This is also the reason why you are divided into two groups!"
"But on the surface, you are all members of BioGen Innovations Hero Academy. What you need to do is to pass the assessments and ultimately receive modifications from BioGen Innovations!"
"And with that, our Veridiania War Department can also get access to BioGen Innovations' modification technology!"
"By then, BioGen Innovations will have no reason to block us!"
"This is more like an international covert struggle in peacetime!"
Violet Moon's eyes were sharp as she looked at the stunned members of the Veridiania group, "In such a situation, someone might get injured or have an accident!"
"If anyone doesn't want to get involved in this struggle, I can understand that, and you can quit now!"
The scene was silent.
The reality was completely different from what everyone had imagined!
They thought they were the lucky ones, chosen to be modified and become heroes, bringing glory to their families!
But unexpectedly, what's going on in this small BioGen Innovations Academy was actually a battle between nations!
Elbert also nodded slightly.
The Veridiania government's strategy was steady and cautious!
While hiding themselves, they also needed to know their opponent!
Truly a strategy of national warfare!
"Coach, say no more, we have to do it!" Gino said in a gruff voice, clenching his fist, "We must fight for the honor of our country!"
The young hacker Cupcake was also quite interested, "Aren't we kind of international spies now?"
"Not exactly."
College student Lavern said excitedly, "It's more like being international exchange students at our school! Competing with foreign students for international awards!"
Dino also pondered, "The prestige of Veridiania cannot be shamed! How can we let outsiders show off?"
Suddenly, someone in the back of the crowd raised their hand abruptly.
Violet Moon frowned as she saw who it was, "Elbert, do you have any objections?"
Elbert said slowly, "I just want to ask, how can we speed up the selection process? Or is there a way to win directly? Like, defeating the entire international group?"
Violet Moon exhaled slightly, her chest rising and falling, "First, you can't do that, and second, there's no such way!"
"In our entire training, there are three assessments: physical enhancement, combat testing, and disaster response!"
"None of these can be skipped! They are all essential steps to becoming a hero!"
