Chapter 10 - Gear Capabilities

"Damn it! I must get revenge! I must! I must!!!"

After getting into the luxury RV and leaving St. Kent College, and confirming that he was safe, the director suddenly roared!

His words were frantic, filled with undisguised hysteria and hatred!

As a distinguished capitalist, undoubtedly a superior person in this country, the board of directors has never been treated like this before!

To think that he was cornered in the principal's office by such a lowly and hateful mutant freak, beaten and kicked, and then forced to sign that document in utter humiliation!

The director's eyes were bloodshot, filled with hatred and anger that showed no sign of abating.

His close associates sat inside the large RV, watching the enraged director without daring to utter a single word, all shrinking into the corner as much as possible, afraid of being noticed by the enraged director!

"Saint Kent! Mutant! Clark!"

The director uttered a few words as he gave the order, a vicious smile spreading across his face:

"Clark! You...you must be a mutant too, right? Only a freak like you would think that just because you're a mutant and have some strange abilities, you can look down on everything!"

"Foolish ideas and opinions! I'll show you that freaks like you should stay in the sewers trembling in fear, not come out here pretending to be something you're not!"

"No! How dare you hide in the sewers, trembling with fear? I'm going to torture you properly, so you'll know the consequences of offending me! I won't let you escape!"

Seemingly realizing something, the director's gaze shifted, and he quickly looked at one of his subordinates, ordering:

"Notify the others to keep a close eye on St. Kent Academy... If that bastard Clark shows any intention of escaping, inform me immediately!"

The director's implication was that he believed Clark would run away after committing these heinous acts!

From a normal person's perspective, the fact that this director could analyze these possibilities while in a fit of rage only proves that he truly deserves his reputation as a ruthless capitalist; his mind is incredibly sharp.

After he gave the order, his subordinates quickly took out their communicators and started making calls.

But after dialing several times, it still didn't work.

The subordinate swallowed hard, his face pale as he looked at the director who was gradually calming down:

"Boss, the communicator seems to be broken. I can't make any calls! The signal strength is full, but I just can't dial!"

The director, having calmed down after being harassed by this incident, became angry again:

"Useless! All of you are useless!"

"They are not useless."

Just then, a cool, aloof female voice came from inside the RV.

"What's that sound?"

The director was stunned for a moment, then quickly found the source of the sound it was coming from the car stereo!

Damn it!

The sound system has been hacked!

Or rather, the RV's systems were hacked!

The director wasn't stupid; he quickly grasped the crux of the matter and immediately roared:

"Stop the car! Stop the car right now!"

Unfortunately, despite the driver's best efforts, the RV continued to move smoothly, even after the driver forcibly applied the manual brakes, it was still to no avail!

The handbrake system was damaged by external force!

At this moment, the clear, cold female voice rang out again:

"It's no use, they're all under my control."

"Originally, I was going to let you die quietly, but your previous words have angered me greatly!"

"You actually thought that Brother Clark would run away? And you even sent people to keep an eye on the academy?"

"I don't know whether to call you stupid or cunning, but either way, you deserve to die! As a final friendly reminder, your 'good friends' have already left before you."

So go die and join them!

As soon as the words were spoken, something happened inside the RV.

However, on the outside, this speeding RV accidentally hit a road hazard after a chance collision, causing the fuel tank to burst.

Then it came across a fire hydrant. After being washed by the water, the RV spun, bounced, leaked oil, slipped, and circled for several hundred meters before flipping over on the cross-district bridge and plunging into it!

Before the RV even hit the water, it exploded instantly, giving the onlookers a spectacular fireworks display.

Following this incident, the stock price of the company that manufactured the RV plummeted.

...

"Drip drip drip..."

The sirens of ambulances and police cars rang out one after another, becoming the dominant sound in the surrounding area.

Clark sat in the principal's office chair, and only spoke slowly after the last board member's RV exploded:

"The problem has been resolved."

He looked at the zither and instructed:

"Go and inform all the teachers to continue classes as usual, and to treat what happened before as if it never happened."

Jean smiled wryly upon hearing this:

"I feel like the trouble has only just begun."

"Getting rid of those board members is easy, but the aftermath... could very well affect St. Kent Academy!"

After thinking it over, Jean made a decision:

"I'll go find Gwen. With Gwen there, Chief George can slow down the investigation. That should be fine."

Gwen, whose full name is Gwen Stacy, is also a student at St. Kent College.

Gwen's father is George Stacy, who is the city's police chief.

When Old Kent was alive, he had a good relationship with Chief George, which is why Gwen studied at St. Kent College.

However, Jean wasn't familiar with Chief George, so she decided to ask Gwen for help to get in touch with him.

But Clark stopped Jyn from doing so.

He shook his head and said with absolute certainty:

"Even if Chief George intervenes, it won't make much difference. This matter is beyond Chief George's control."

Jean bit her lip lightly:

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

Clark looked at the worried expression on Jean's face and laughed instead.

Jean was getting a little annoyed by his laughter, so she just stared straight at Clark until he smiled sheepishly and returned to normal.

Clark stood up, put on his coat, and slowly said:

"Jean, don't worry, I told you, leave these things to me!"

"I'm going out for a bit. Chief George can't handle this, so I'm going to find someone who can and ask him to intervene."

"Furthermore... the size of St. Kent Academy should also be expanded!"

Jean was somewhat surprised and at a loss.

Expand St. Kent College?

For a typical college, expanding its size is no big deal.

However, the situation at St. Kent College was far too complicated.

There are mutant students involved, and they are continuously recruiting new mutant students!

With the mutant factor involved, there are just too many entanglements and too much resistance!

Clark wants to expand St. Kent College, so who should he approach?

Jean fell into deep thought.

Finally, he let out a long sigh of relief.

No matter who you ask, the best outcome is that they can get this done.

When the former principal was alive, he had thought about expanding the college, but he was old and frail and no longer had the energy.

Now, his unfulfilled wish has been fulfilled.

What Jean didn't know was that Clark had also awakened a principal system, and to fully utilize this system, more students were needed.

This can be considered killing two birds with one stone.
