Chapter 217: Genos, Beaten Again
Chapter 217: Genos, Beaten Again
As the Lightning Max and Snake Fist Snake were effortlessly punched away by the Deep Sea King, Fubuki controlled the scattered rocks on the ground, forming a rock shield in front of herself.
She was prepared to take a beating, fully aware that her physical abilities were no match for the Deep Sea King's speed.
Evading his attacks was out of the question, so she had no choice but to brace herself. She knew this thin rock shield wouldn't completely withstand the Deep Sea King's assault, but it might buy her a few extra hits.
With only herself left standing, if she fell, the civilians behind her would face the Deep Sea King's merciless slaughter.
"Boom———"
Just as Fubuki braced herself, a figure suddenly descended from above the gymnasium, delivering a powerful flying kick directly to the Deep Sea King's face.
The Deep Sea King, about to finish off the female hero before him, was caught off guard by this sudden attack.
The forceful kick distorted his green face, and the next moment, immense pressure slammed his body into the ground, creating a massive crater.
The powerful aftershock formed a storm, sweeping across the area.
The attacker was none other than the S-Class hero Genos, known by various titles like Budget Warrior, Invincible War God, and Devil Cyborg.
"Devil Cyborg, it's you. I thought..." Fubuki was momentarily stunned, having assumed it was someone else who came to her rescue.
But considering her distress signal was sent out recently, even he couldn't have arrived so quickly.
"Leave this to me. Evacuate the civilians," Genos began, but his life reactor within his body suddenly emitted a series of high-energy alerts. As he assumed a defensive stance, a powerful fist burst through the dust, aiming for his face.
Despite his timely defense, Genos was inevitably blasted away by the sheer force.
Unlike Venom Dart and Lightning Max, Genos, as an S-Class hero, wasn't going to be taken down by a single punch from the Deep Sea King.
He was knocked away but sustained minimal physical damage.
Using his propulsion device to counteract inertia, Genos hovered in mid-air, readying his signature Budget Cannon. However, he noticed civilians still in the gymnasium.
"I can't use the Incineration Cannon here; it'll harm the innocent," he thought.
In that moment of hesitation, the Deep Sea King vanished from the ground and reappeared behind Genos.
Genos turned in surprise, seeing the Deep Sea King with clenched fists and a sinister smile.
The next second, the Deep Sea King unleashed a devastating hammer strike with his interlocked arms, smashing into Genos's back.
The impact sent Genos hurtling towards the sky like a meteor, the force of the blow breaking through sound barrier after sound barrier during his descent!
"Boom——————!"
As Genos slammed into the ground, the entire gymnasium shook violently.
A massive crater, nearly ten meters in diameter, formed on the ground where he landed!
"Another S-Rank Hero defeated? What level of disaster is this monster?!"
Max and the others, who had been knocked to the ground by Deep Sea King's aerial hammer strike, stared at the monster in the sky, their faces reflecting disbelief.
"Spiral Incineration Cannon!"
Just as everyone thought Genos was defeated, a small orange light appeared in the crater, followed by a colossal pillar of fire that instantly dispersed the surrounding dust and shot towards the airborne Deep Sea King!
"Impressive! If he were in mid-air, that guy wouldn't have been able to dodge this attack."
Watching the Incineration Cannon erupt from the pit, Blizzard and the others couldn't help but exclamations of awe.
Deep Sea King lacked the ability to fly, and without a foothold in the air, it was nearly impossible for him to evade Genos' enhanced Budget Cannon.
Moreover, since the "Spiral Incineration Cannon" was fired upwards from below, there was no need to worry about it affecting the ordinary people in the gymnasium.
As Deep Sea King, suspended in mid-air, was hit by the Incineration Cannon with nowhere to escape, and subsequently fell as a charred corpse, Genos, who had consumed over half of his energy and sustained bodily damage, breathed a sigh of relief.
Not only him, but all the ordinary citizens who had been in the gymnasium also began to cheer upon seeing the terrifying monster defeated.
As for Genos, due to Deep Sea King's previous explosive attack, he was now missing a limb and still trapped in the crater, unable to move.
Max and Snake, who had barely regained some mobility, helped him out of the pit and expressed their gratitude.
After all, if it weren't for Genos' timely arrival, everyone present might have perished.
However, as they walked past Deep Sea King's charred remains, they failed to notice that the falling rain was being absorbed by the monster's corpse.
When Genos approached Blizzard, intending to boast, his life reactor suddenly issued a series of high-energy alerts. Turning back in disbelief, Genos witnessed the once-charred Deep Sea King rising again! The blackened skin, after absorbing the rain, began to peel off and regenerate. Furthermore, Genos' life reactor, which also served as an energy detection device, displayed data indicating that Deep Sea King was not only alive but had become even more powerful!
"I must admit, you have some skills, forcing me to use this hideous form.
But it ends here. The game is over, and now begins the one-sided slaughter. Are you ready for what's to come, heroes of humanity?"
