Chapter 221: You're Telling Me This is a B-Rank Hero?
Chapter 221: You're Telling Me This is a B-Rank Hero?
"I suppose I am a hero, even if it wasn't my choice to become one."
"I'm the 101st B-Rank Hero and a new member of the Blizzard Group, Yecheng. It's a pleasure to meet you all."
Yecheng had considered introducing himself with his hero name, as it would have sounded more poetic, but the mere thought of his cringe-worthy hero name made him abandon the idea.
As Yecheng introduced himself, the Venom Dart and Max, who were lying on the ground elsewhere, couldn't help but show their curiosity.
They knew this white-haired man was the unique member Blizzard had mentioned earlier.
Unlike the curious A-Rank Heroes, the ordinary citizens in the area couldn't help but feel less enthusiastic.
As regular people, they couldn't objectively assess strength; instead, they relied on the Hero Association's rankings and grades to gauge a hero's power.
The sudden appearance of a handsome young man with white hair was impressive, but his strength was questionable. After all, good looks didn't always equate to power.
The A-Rank and even S-Rank Heroes had been easily handled by the green-skinned monster, and now a B-Rank Hero, ranked 101st, seemed like a mere addition to the roster.
Although the B-Rank Hero had just severed the monster's arm, it was mostly due to a surprise attack...
Unlike the civilians, the A-Rank Heroes, Venom Dart and Max, had a broader perspective.
Even though it was a surprise attack, the fact that this B-Rank Hero could penetrate the scales of the Sea King, which they couldn't, was proof of his formidable strength!
"My introduction is done. Now, I'll be your opponent and return the favor."
Hearing Yecheng's words, the Sea King responded with a disdainful smile, his composure unwavering despite missing an arm.
As the rain fell, the stump where his arm had been severed was already sprouting new flesh, rapidly regenerating.
Initially, the Sea King thought Yecheng was a formidable opponent, but upon closer inspection, he seemed rather ordinary.
He didn't exude an overwhelming aura, and his presence was less intimidating than the humans who had attacked earlier.
The Sea King attributed Yecheng's ability to sneak up on him, breach his scale defense, and sever his arm to the element of surprise and the sharpness of his sword.
So, when Yecheng boldly declared himself as the Sea King's opponent, the Sea King responded with contempt, "If you believe you can handle it, then by all means, give it your best shot..."
Before the Sea King could finish his sentence, the human who had been standing before him vanished from sight in an instant.
A deep crater marked the spot where he had been, and the next moment, the Sea King felt a sharp pain in his abdomen!
His words were cut short, not from surprise, but because he had just taken a solid punch to the gut, causing him to spew out bitter water and rendering him unable to speak.
A gust of wind swept through, and the ground beneath them cracked from the impact. The following second, the Sea King, in his wet form, measuring over five meters tall, was sent flying!
The force of the blow caused his massive body to skid across the ground, carving a long, deep trench into the spacious stadium.
And so, Yecheng, who had just punched Sea King into the sky, did not choose to halt his assault but instead discarded the knife in his hand, thrusting it into the ground before him. He began to chant incantations, his lips moving in a silent spell.
"In this world, light exists, and with spirit as the lock and soul as the chain, all that binds is evil!
Binding Dao Sixty-Three: Chain Shackles!"
A glowing white chain shot out from Yecheng's hand, wrapping around the ankles of the airborne Sea King, who was still flying backward.
What happened next left everyone in the vicinity even more astonished. With both hands gripping the white chain, Yecheng pulled with all his might, violently yanking the still-flying Sea King back towards himself!
Logically, the Wet Form Sea King stood at least five meters tall, and a normal human standing before him would look no different from a child.
With such a large physique, his weight must be considerable, and combined with the inertia of Sea King's backward flight, Yecheng, standing at just over 1.7 meters tall and with a rather slender build, managed to pull back the much larger Sea King!
The Sea King, violently yanked back, couldn't move due to the immense inertia. By the time he reacted, his body was already within arm's reach of Yecheng.
Before he could respond, a fist that wasn't particularly large to him had already entered his field of vision and struck his face.
Yecheng's punch was so powerful that it shattered several of Sea King's teeth, and his entire face deformed under the impact.
The Sea King, pulled back once more, flew into the air again, but this wasn't the end.
As the Sea King's body flew from the punch to his face, the chain binding his ankles tightened again due to the pull, and the next moment, the tormented Sea King was dragged back by Yecheng once more.
Concerned that the chain might not be sturdy enough and could break after a few pulls, Yecheng had chosen to fully chant the Ghost Dao incantation.
Punching him into the air, pulling him back, punching again, and then pulling him back once more—as Yecheng pummeled Sea King like a bouncy ball, everyone present was left in utter shock! Before the fight began, no one had imagined that it would be so one-sided.
No, to be precise, perhaps the ordinary residents had expected a one-sided battle, but they had assumed that Yecheng, the B-Class Hero, would be crushed by Sea King.
But no one could have predicted the scene unfolding before their eyes.
In their eyes, the seemingly invincible Sea King, who had consecutively defeated two S-Class Heroes, was nothing more than a plaything to Yecheng!
"This level of strength, and he's just a B-Class Hero, ranked 101st! What is the Hero Association doing?"
"Hell Blizzard wasn't joking earlier... Where did she find such a monstrous team member?"
Watching Yecheng repeatedly punch and pull Sea King, who had once been so arrogant, into an unrecognizable state, Poison Dart and the others were dumbfounded.
Previously, they had thought Hell Blizzard was toying with them, as S-Class and A-Class Heroes sought help from a mere B-Class Hero.
But now, it seemed they were the real frogs in the well!
