Chapter 205: Don't You Want to Make a Splash?
Chapter 205: Don't You Want to Make a Splash?
The moment news of the meteor strike broke, the entire Z City was thrown into chaos.
Although not densely populated, Z City was not devoid of residents, and now they began to flee the city en masse.
However, for them, half an hour was far too short a time to escape the city's boundaries.
The news of the meteor strike also spread fear to nearby cities, who worried about being affected by its aftermath, prompting their own exodus.
As a result, severe congestion plagued the subways, airplanes, and even highways.
After receiving the coordinates from Genos, Saitama looked at the crowded roads and broke into a cold sweat.
Fortunately, he encountered the top-ranked C-Class Hero, License-Free Knight, riding his bicycle. Originally intending to head towards the meteor's location, he offered Saitama a ride.
License-Free Knight, being only a C-Class Hero, had not received the special mission to stop the meteor. However, as a man with an overwhelming sense of justice, he couldn't stand idly by after learning about the meteor's descent.
He knew he might not be of much help, but he couldn't allow himself to do nothing upon hearing such news.
License-Free Knight was aware of his weakness, and even the top C-Class ranking was largely inflated. Stopping the meteor was beyond his capabilities, but as a Hero, there were still things he could do! Without any orders from the Hero Association, License-Free Knight took the initiative to ride his bicycle to Z City and assist in evacuating the panicked citizens.
It wasn't until he encountered Saitama, who claimed to be able to destroy the meteor, that License-Free Knight changed his stance and became Saitama's driver.
License-Free Knight couldn't quite explain why he, as the top C-Class Hero, would believe a C-Class bottom-ranker's claim to solve a problem that most S-Class Heroes couldn't.
Strangely, when Saitama said he could shatter the meteor, License-Free Knight believed him!
"Even at this speed, we might not make it in time, right?"
License-Free Knight pedaled with all his might, but seeing the meteor descending with a trail of flames, he couldn't help but express his frustration.
"Don't worry, Genos and Yecheng have already rushed ahead. Yecheng will surely find a way."
License-Free Knight had heard of Genos, the newly emerged S-Class Hero, who was a hot topic among both Heroes and the public.
However, what surprised him was that Saitama mentioned both Yecheng and Genos, yet it was Yecheng, not the new S-Class Hero Genos, who was expected to come up with a solution.
Did this mean that Yecheng was even stronger than the newly promoted S-Class Hero Genos?
Meanwhile, in the sky above, Hell Blizzard, the top-ranked B-Class Hero, used his superpowers to carry another man towards the meteor's impact site.
"Blizzard, can't you go any faster? At this speed, I'm afraid we'll be too late."
Hearing Yecheng's complaint, Hell Blizzard, who was already in a foul mood, became even more agitated.
She had no desire to get involved in this mess. Was a meteor strike, a natural disaster, something they, as low-ranking Heroes, could handle?
Even if they managed to reach the meteor, what else could they do besides getting themselves killed? Twenty minutes ago, in Yecheng, Hell Frost, who was planning to flee, was stopped by Yecheng. He hoped that Hell Frost would use her superpower to fly him to the meteor's impact site.
In the world of the Grim Reaper, he existed as a spirit, capable of walking in the air. However, in the world of One-Punch, although he had gained strength, he embarrassingly couldn't fly...
Hell Frost's superpower allowed her to fly with another person, but due to its limited strength, she could only carry one person. This was why Baldy had to resort to riding a bicycle.
Initially, Hell Frost was reluctant to accept Yecheng's request. In her eyes, Yecheng and Saitama's actions were nothing short of suicidal.
A bottom-ranked B-Class Hero and a bottom-ranked C-Class Hero claiming to resolve a Dragon-Class disaster—a meteor from outer space—was this even a joke?
"Don't you want to make headlines? If we truly manage to avert this meteor crisis, tomorrow's newspaper headlines will be all about you."
"Don't you want to escape your sister's shadow? Genos told me that S-Class Hero Trembling Tornado is away on business, so this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"I can guarantee that no matter who stops the meteor, me, Baldy, or Genos, the credit will go to you."
Yecheng's words were like a devil's whisper, causing Hell Frost, who was about to turn and leave, to pause in her steps.
Hell Frost's obsession with her sister, Trembling Tornado, was too strong! No matter how much effort she and her Blizzard Team put in, as soon as her sister made the slightest move, all attention and focus would shift to her.
Although she knew that stopping the meteor was unrealistic, Hell Frost was so desperate to beat her sister once that she couldn't resist Yecheng's temptation.
"Besides the credit for stopping the meteor, after this incident, you'll also have to join my Blizzard Team."
Hell Frost, who was about to leave, was now tempted, but she added another condition to the original terms.
"You're being too greedy. You just want me to help you get there, and after giving you all the credit, you still want me to sign a bondage contract!"
Hearing Yecheng's words, Hell Frost crossed her arms, further accentuating her impressive bust, and said with a matter-of-fact tone, "Isn't this only fair? I'm risking my life to indulge your whims!
I'm not sure if you can stop the meteor, but if we fail, aside from losing the credit, we'll also be in great danger.
Is it too much to ask for your membership in the Blizzard Team in exchange for my life?
And saying something like a bondage contract is also too much. Our Blizzard Team is just a small group of like-minded individuals. Although I'm the leader, I won't force you to do anything you're uncomfortable with."
Upon hearing Hell Frost's conditions, Yecheng hesitated briefly. He looked at his newly renovated house and then at the 'treasures' in his room. Finally, after gritting his teeth, he agreed to Hell Frost's conditions.
Honestly, Yecheng didn't care much about what would happen to Z-City, but his house was within its boundaries, which made the situation dire.
Now that he was penniless, losing his house would mean living on the streets, and he couldn't bear to part with the treasures in his house...
