Heroes Return

"To be able to generate a card that can directly destroy monsters, the teacher is really amazing..." Harry wanted to say something arrogant, but then he was dumbfounded.

Because Lin Jie immediately launched his "Here's your second blow."

Another huge club came down, killing the contracted demon instantly.

Then they started 'giving you a third blow'.

"Wait, activate my card! Secret Resurrection!" Harry exclaimed immediately, and the next moment his two monsters came back to life. However, they were immediately sent back to the graveyard by a giant club that shot down from the sky.

Then, Lin Jie naturally activated his fourth spell: "I'll finish you off with this final blow."

A huge stick fell towards where Harry was standing.

"Activate my magic! Defensive Array!" Harry said, using his last card, a golden energy shield protecting him.

Then the giant stick fell down, the energy shield broke, Harry collapsed, and the game ended.

"I must say, this game is actually quite interesting. We can play it in class sometime," Lin Jie said happily.

Looking at Harry lying on the ground foaming at the mouth, all the students had the same thought: "Who the hell would want to play this kind of game with you!"

……

Harry slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was a face that looked just like Billy's.

"Hey bro, wanna grab a spicy snack?"

Harry was startled when he saw the face, and immediately tried to get away from the guy. Then he was surprised to find himself tied up like a big dumpling with a rope.

What's even more terrifying is that he only then realized that while he was bound, he was unable to use any magic.

"Don't resist, you won't be able to exert any strength if you're tied up." Miyamoto Spicy Strips said to him, "Why don't you eat some spicy strips? I still have one left in my mouth."

As he spoke, a spicy strip was sticking out of Miyamoto Spicy Strip-kun's mouth, and Miyamoto Spicy Strip-kun, holding the spicy strip in his mouth, brought it closer to Harry's mouth.

"Get that disgusting thing away!" Harry said, looking disgusted at the spicy snack that was coming out of the mouth of the man who was eating spicy snacks.

"What! You actually said that the great spicy strips are disgusting!" Miyamoto Spicy Strips was furious upon hearing his words: "Today, I'm going to make you experience the wonderfulness of spicy strips!"

As he spoke, Miyamoto-kun quickly began trying to feed the spicy strips in his hand into Harry's mouth.

Harry, on the other hand, began to look away with disgust.

All of this happened in the eyes of Felicia, who was perched on Justin's back with shining eyes. At that moment, Miyamoto Spicy Strips was trying to forcefully kiss Harry.

"So, the samurai gentleman likes this kind of magician gentleman..."

"What did you say?" Justin asked, having overheard Felicia muttering something.

"N-nothing?" Felicia said, blushing. Then she laughed and said to the air beside her, "Gil, although the samurai is very proactive, I feel that the mage is the dominant one... Do you think so too? We really do agree..."

"Alright, let's go find the next Calabash Brother," Lin Jie said, looking at the information.

"Why do I feel like we're playing an RPG, defeating all sorts of levels along the way!" Ye Daoshen looked at Lin Jie dragging three rice dumplings and couldn't help but dismiss this idea. But soon, another RPG game plot appeared in Ye Daoshen's mind and wouldn't leave him.

"This is clearly a ridiculous story of the Great Demon King descending the mountain and capturing heroes and their companions along the way! First, he captured the swordsman Miyamoto, then the priest Felicia, the berserker Obsession, and the mage Harry! This is obviously a story of the big boss leaving the Demon King's castle and capturing heroes and their companions along the way!!! And it looks like the Great Demon King will be clearing the game very soon!!!"

Chapter 11

And so the Great Demon King embarked on a journey to capture one hero after another.

"Isn't this the technology development building?" Lin Jie asked.

Just as Lin Jie was about to go in and arrest the person, the content on the large screen in the lobby suddenly changed to a cute girl wearing glasses: "Hello, Teacher Lin Jie!"

"Do you know why I'm here?" Lin Jie asked.

"Of course I know, I can still connect to the school's surveillance cameras," Tifa said. "But teacher, I'm still not planning to attend your class, because I'm really busy!"

"You mean you're so busy that you're using missiles to sprinkle red powder to mess with the teacher?" At this point, Lin Jie was 100% certain that the girl in front of him was the culprit who had planned to mess with him.

"Huh? I was just trying to joke with the teacher." Tifa gently tapped her head and made a cute face on the big screen.

"Since you're a girl with glasses, I won't tie you up now," Lin Jie said to Tifa. "Genius girls are such a hassle."

"Ugh, if you just tell me to go down and I go down, that'll be so boring." Tifa said to Lin Jie, "I've never seen a teacher like you who drags students back to class like this before! Of course, Tifa wants to have some fun with you, teacher."

"Another unlucky kid." Lin Jie sighed helplessly, then turned to look at Justin: "If only everyone were as obedient as this guy."

"Then come and catch me, teacher! I just made some preparations on the rooftop." Tifa, looking very energetic, said to Lin Jie with a smile, "I heard about the teacher's point of view: as long as you increase your strength, you can handle anything. But I don't agree. In my opinion, the advancement of technology is the key to humanity becoming stronger, and only scientific progress can explore the origin of the world."

"Don't joke around! Magic is the power that can touch the source!" Harry, the young mage bound by Lin Jie, shouted at Tifa, "Technology is simply incomparable to magic!"

"Aaaaah!! Isn't this the chuunibyou idiot who just got knocked down with a stick?" Tifa's expression instantly turned gloomy when she saw Harry.

“You’re the one who’s a chuunibyou idiot! I’m an explorer of the truth of the world, unlike you, a white idiot who’s always carrying a wrench!” Harry immediately retorted.

"Aaaah!! I heard a loser's roar." Tifa looked at the zombie on the screen with the eyes of someone looking at trash: "So-called mysticism is just some things that science can't explain for the time being, but as long as you study it for a while, it will be explained by science sooner or later. You chuunibyou mage."

"Mysticism isn't something that science can explain. You wrench girl," Harry said to him. "If you're so capable, then explain it to me, wrench girl!"

"It'll be explained sooner or later! You chuunibyou (delusional) wizard!"

"You'll never be able to explain this, you wrench-wielding woman! Magic is far more powerful than any of your so-called technology!"

"Science will explain it sooner or later! You chuunibyou mage! Your outdated so-called magic and technology are simply incomparable."

"Wrench Girl! If I weren't tied up right now, I'd definitely go up there and fight you for three hundred rounds!" Harry shouted at Tifa on the screen.

"You, a chuunibyou mage who got taken down by an ant?" Tifa said disdainfully.

"Wrench Girl!" "Chuunibyou Mage!"

……

Lin Jie was completely overwhelmed by the argument between the two.

"Could you two please put a stop to your academic rivalry for now?" Lin Jie said to the two of them.

"Yeah, I need a spicy snack to calm down!"

"Hmph, if I hadn't seen Teacher Lin coming today, I would have definitely given you a piece of my mind." Tifa's expression then turned into that of a cheerful and adorable girl again: "I'm waiting on the rooftop for Teacher Lin to take me away, okay?"

"Let's go upstairs and catch some girls," Lin Jie said to the students behind him.

“There’s obviously a trap there!” Ye Daoshen said. “We don’t want to go up there and get into trouble.”

"Don't worry, I'm here," Lin Jie said calmly, then pulled his lackeys into the elevator.

Upon reaching the rooftop, the students behind Lin Jie instantly collapsed, exhausted.

"Hey! How come you have an X-field?" Ye Daoshen asked with difficulty, squatting on the ground.

At that moment, a young girl was standing on the edge of the rooftop; it was Tifa.

“Welcome, teacher. How are the things I prepared for you?” Tifa smiled at Lin Jie. “In the face of advanced technology, even the strongest superpowers are useless. By the way, I made these X-fields myself.”

"Is this why you were so confident that I came up here to arrest you?" Lin Jie asked Tifa.

"Of course, they know Teacher Lin is a real fighter!" Tifa said to Lin Jie with a smile. "That's why they've prepared two robots for you. Come on out, wrestling bears!"

As soon as she finished speaking, two enormous robotic bears emerged from behind them and walked towards Lin Jie.

"As expected, all the teachers are idiots!" Tifa laughed, sticking her tongue out in Lin Jie's direction. "Let them compete with the teachers!"

With that, Tifa turned around and walked in another direction.

Then she heard a metallic scraping sound, followed by two loud bangs, and then silence again.

“Teacher isn’t stupid.” Lin Jie’s voice reached Tifa’s ears.

"Impossible, I clearly activated the X-field." The girl turned her head in surprise and saw that the two bears were reduced to mere parts, still emitting black smoke from time to time.

"This thing doesn't seem to work on me!" Lin Jie said to Tifa indifferently.

"Is she an X-field immune user?" Tifa was somewhat surprised. "Oh dear, I guess I still don't have enough information. Well then, goodbye!" With that, the anti-gravity field on Tifa's backpack was activated, and she flew away into the distance.

"You think you can escape?" Lin Jie said to Tifa, "A student who only wants to mess with the teacher is not a good student."

As Lin Jie spoke, the iron rod in his hand lengthened. In an instant, it pierced into Tifa's backpack, which then stopped working after emitting a puff of black smoke.

Lin Jie withdrew the stick from his hand, and his eyes met those of Tifa, who was hanging on the stick.

"Teacher Lin Jie, do I no longer need to be tied up? I feel like I can walk on my own," Tifa said to Lin Jie.

"What do you say?"

As soon as Lin Jie finished speaking, a large wrench was thrown at him. However, it had no effect on Lin Jie at all.

Then Tifa was tied up like a dumpling by Lin Jie's rope.

"You wrench girl, did you think the X-field was invincible? You got caught, didn't you?" Seeing Tifa captured by Lin Jie, the sorcerer Harry immediately mocked Tifa with glee, "Hahaha, didn't you think you were so smart? You still got caught by your teacher after all!"

Tifa pouted unhappily: "I just didn't expect that Teacher Lin Jie was immune to X-fields! Otherwise, I would never have been caught so easily."

"The howling of a spoiled dog."

“Do you have the right to talk to me like that? Aren’t you tied up here just like me?” Tifa said to Harry.

“I’m not like you, who couldn’t even last a few seconds,” Harry said. “At least I can fight Lin Jie for a while.”

"You mean the 'fighting for a while' is the legendary 'twelve consecutive rat throws'? You're just giving him a longer period of one-sided torture!" Tifa retorted to Harry.

"You two stop arguing and have some spicy snacks to calm down. We're both losers."

"You're the loser!" the two said to Miyamoto in unison.

"Why the hell does my head hurt so much... Ah!!" The obsession that had just woken up fell asleep again.

"Alright, we've successfully caught the fifth Calabash Brother." Lin Jie glanced at his students' files. "There are two more students left. Do you know where those two usually are?"

……

And so, the engineer also became the Great Demon King's prisoner, but the Great Demon King's journey to capture the hero, accompanied by his minions, was far from over.

The group arrived outside the school and, after passing through a small grove of trees, stopped in front of a monument resembling a cemetery. Without exception, the monuments here were adorned with carvings of fallen superheroes.

A white-haired boy dressed in black was sitting quietly on a tombstone, the cross on his chest swaying in the wind.

“I knew you would come here.” The boy didn’t look at him, or even look up, as if he were talking to himself, his voice tinged with a sense of desolation: “I’ve been waiting for you here for a while now.”

“See that? That chuunibyou is way more professional than you,” Tifa said to Harry.

"I'm not a chuunibyou! I'm a wizard!" Harry said unhappily. "That's what chuunibyou is!"

"..." Hearing the conversation between the two, the boy, who was about to say something, opened his mouth but suddenly didn't know what to say next!
