Chapter 215: The Infamous Deep Sea King Appears
"Aside from that area, the remaining reaction should be located here at the sports center.
At coordinates X-404 Y-404, we've detected a Monstrosity's energy response. Based on the energy readings, we estimate the disaster level to be upper Ghost-Class! Comparing it to the energy signatures of other Deep Sea Clan members, this Monstrosity is likely the strongest, and possibly their king.
We've already contacted A-Rank Heroes in the top 20: Hell Frost at 5th, Venom Dart at 10th, Lightning Max at 20th, and Snake at 38th, to provide support."
Logically, these top-ranked A-Rank Heroes should be able to hold their own against even a Ghost-Class disaster.
However, considering this might be the Deep Sea King, their actual strength might be more formidable than expected. Siki suggested, "To be safe, let's also contact the 17th-ranked S-Rank Hero, Sensual Prisoner, and the 16th-ranked Hero, Devil Cyborg."
"If I recall correctly, their current operation area should be nearby, right?"
At the sports center, a massive crowd of residents had taken refuge inside a large stadium.
The sudden appearance of the Deep Sea Clan caught them off guard, leaving no time to retreat to the underground defense mechanisms.
The Deep Sea King, with his green skin, red shorts, ten-pack abs, and a crown on his head, sniffed the air, savoring the scent of humans. With a sinister smile, he marched towards the stadium.
The first to engage the Deep Sea King was Sonic... oops, I mean, Sonic the Speedster. But after a brief encounter, Sonic realized the opponent was a tough nut to crack. Knowing he wasn't a Hero, Sonic wisely retreated.
Following Sonic, the next to face the Deep Sea King was the 17th-ranked S-Rank Hero, Sensual Prisoner.
Two muscular brothers engaged in a tense and intense battle. Initially dominated by Sensual Prisoner, he suddenly burst out of his clothes, unleashing an eye-watering ultimate technique.
Perhaps it was their shared muscular brotherhood, but even Sensual Prisoner's bizarre 'Angel Form' managed to catch the Deep Sea King off guard.
However, just as Sensual Prisoner gained the upper hand, the sky unexpectedly started to drizzle.
Rain began to fall, and the scales tipped in favor of the Deep Sea King.
The Deep Sea King, as the leader of the Deep Sea Clan, could function on land, but being originally sea-dwellers, their strength was somewhat diminished on land.
Despite the land's adverse effects on their speed and strength, they still possessed the power to challenge Sensual Prisoner.
The moment the rain touched the Deep Sea King, his condition improved, and Sensual Prisoner, who had held a slight advantage, was instantly defeated!
Blizzard, Venom Dart, Lightning Max, and Snake, who had also received the Hero Association's orders to provide support, had watched the battle between the S-Rank Hero Sensual Prisoner and the Deep Sea King from a distance, thinking they might not get a chance to fight.
But no one anticipated that an S-Rank Hero like Sensual Prisoner would be defeated so swiftly by this Monstrosity!
The reason there are only seventeen S-Rank Heroes to date is that each of them is considered a formidable force in the eyes of all Heroes below S-Rank.
Now, the formidable S-Class hero, one of the so-called monsters, had been instantly killed by the monster before them. Even if they, several A-Class heroes, fought together, could they possibly defeat this opponent?
This was obviously impossible! After all, there was a qualitative difference between S-Class and A-Class heroes. Among the A-Class heroes, only the top-ranked "Sweetheart Mask" stood a chance against Sensual Prisoner. The rest of the A-Class heroes, even if they joined forces, might not be able to defeat Sensual Prisoner.
But now, even the powerful Sensual Prisoner had been instantly killed by Sea King. If they charged in together, it would be as good as walking to their deaths.
After a brief moment of hesitation, Blizzard and Poison Sting decided on a strategic retreat.
This wasn't something to be ashamed of. After all, they weren't stubborn kids; facing an unbeatable opponent, it was pointless to rush in and die in vain.
With an S-Class hero like Sensual Prisoner defeated, the Hero Association would surely respond swiftly and dispatch stronger heroes.
As there weren't many obstacles nearby to hide, Blizzard and his team instinctively ran into a nearby stadium.
However, upon entering, they were astonished to find that the stadium was already filled with numerous refugees.
"We can't hide here; it will endanger all these people!"
Although it was a strategic retreat, Blizzard and his team still maintained their integrity as heroes.
Realizing the presence of so many civilians, and the potential danger of engaging Sea King here, they immediately turned to leave.
Before departing, they wondered if they could lure Sea King to another area. Otherwise, if Sea King found this place, everyone here might perish!
Contrary to their plans, just as Blizzard and his team had this thought, the stadium's roof was smashed, creating a massive hole.
At the same time, a colossal figure descended from the sky, and due to the impact of its fall, a deep crater formed in the ground!
"I've found you, insignificant humans. There are so many of you gathered here, and it seems there are even a few so-called heroes. This should be enough to entertain me for a while."
Upon seeing the refugees and Blizzard's team hiding in the stadium, Sea King's face twisted into a sinister grin.
In contrast, the refugees and Blizzard's team were filled with fear and dread.
Just as Poison Sting and the other A-Class heroes were about to face Sea King, a figure riding a bicycle rushed into the stadium and collided with Sea King!
"It's License-Free Knight!"
"Finally, a hero from the Hero Association has come to save us!"
"Go, License-Free Knight! Defeat that monster!"
Hearing the sudden cheers and encouragement from behind, the initially hesitant Poison Sting and his team were stunned.
They knew License-Free Knight, the top-ranked C-Class hero. Although he was the first in C-Class, compared to them, he wasn't even worthy of carrying their shoes.
Yet, this C-Class hero fearlessly charged towards the monster that had defeated an S-Class hero. And here they were, A-Class heroes, still filled with fear and considering retreat?
