Vegeta was curious about the yellow barrier surrounding them. He attempted to attack it and discovered it was quite strong. Perhaps this was an initial protection mechanism provided by the system.
Ignoring the barrier, Vegeta observed the beautiful environment around them. This peaceful scene contradicted the apocalyptic description they were given. However, Vegeta was not deceived by appearances. He began to sense the area with his energy.
Using his energy sense, Vegeta soon noticed something unusual. Outside the school, there were many strange auras. These auras were not strong but felt filled with death and evil. Vegeta realized these were likely the zombies mentioned in the description.
Having a general understanding, Vegeta retracted his energy sense and focused on the injured thug. He formed a ki blast in his hand and launched it at the thug.
"Boom!"
The white ki blast exploded upon impact, but to Vegeta's surprise, a yellow shield appeared around the thug, absorbing most of the damage. The thug was only thrown against the barrier, creating ripples.
"Cough, cough! That hurts..." the thug groaned, slowly regaining consciousness. He felt immense pain throughout his body.
The others woke up from the sound and impact of the explosion, looking around in confusion. Only Yūsha noticed a crater nearby and swallowed hard, staring at Vegeta with fear.
"Yūsha, tell me, what is this thing?" Vegeta asked, not mincing words.
"Yes, sir. I'm not entirely sure of its name, but everyone calls it the Initial Protection Barrier. It's supposed to protect us when we first arrive here and are still unconscious," Yūsha explained quickly.
"The barrier not only prevents us from harming each other but also makes us invisible to those outside. It usually lasts for three minutes."
"Oh? What if I forcefully destroy it?" Vegeta asked, narrowing his eyes.
"I... I don't know. The barrier is very strong. I've never seen anyone destroy it," Yūsha replied, fear evident in his eyes. The barrier was considered invincible among the Reincarnators.
"Let's see," Vegeta said casually. He raised his right hand, gathering energy. A blue-white energy ball formed above his palm, radiating immense power.
The onlookers were terrified, their skin prickling with fear.
"What... what is that?"
"What kind of power is this?"
Even Yūsha, who had seen much, was dumbfounded by the energy ball that seemed capable of destroying everything.
"No... don't... I was wrong. Please... spare me. I will serve you," the thug begged, tears and snot streaming down his face.
"Too late," Vegeta replied coldly. The thug's fate was sealed the moment he fired at Vegeta. Unlike Goku, Vegeta was not a merciful person. If someone wanted him dead, he would repay them tenfold.
As Vegeta finished speaking, the energy ball flew towards the thug. It moved so fast that the others couldn't even track it. They saw a blinding white light and heard a deafening explosion, followed by a wave of heat that knocked them off their feet.
Vegeta stood calmly, watching the explosion. The yellow barrier appeared around the thug again but only lasted for two seconds under the energy ball's power before shattering.
