Chapter 518: Summoning All S-Class Heroes
Chapter 518: Summoning All S-Class Heroes
At roughly the same time, in A City, Feng Ye was playing cards in the entertainment room of the Crown Hotel when his phone, which was resting on the table, began to ring. He answered the call.
On the other end of the line was a representative from the Hero Association, notifying him of an emergency assembly of all S-Class Heroes!
"Looks like it's starting here as well," Feng Ye said, glancing up at the sky with a slight smile in his eyes.
Though he couldn't see it, he knew that Lord Boros' spaceship had arrived.
Feng Ye ended the call and gently pushed his chips forward. "I call," he said, revealing his hand. "I have a straight flush."
A middle-aged man sitting across from him, with a large belly, scowled and threw down his cards in frustration. He got up, putting his arm around a beautiful woman next to him. "I'm out!" he exclaimed as he headed for the door. "Let's settle up. I'm leaving."
Feng Ye also stood up and politely addressed a nearby waiter before striding out of the card room. Within a few steps, he had reached the end of the corridor.
Instead of opening the window, he continued walking forward, his body shimmering slightly as he phased through the window and the wall, emerging into the open sky outside.
Whoosh!!!
A silvery arc of light enveloped him, and he sliced through the sky, weaving through lightning arcs, instantly traversing half the city until he reached the top of the Hero Association's headquarters in A City.
The rooftop of the Hero Association's headquarters was a spacious, flat plaza. A helicopter could be seen landing in the distance, from which a portly man emerged—the eleventh-ranked S-Class Hero, Pig God.
"Please this way, Mr. Pig God," several staff members greeted him.
At the same time, someone else noticed Feng Ye, who had landed not far away. After a brief moment of surprise, they, too, welcomed him. "Please this way, Mr. Lightning Lord," they said politely.
Feng Ye nodded slightly and followed the association's staff, entering the interior of the Hero Association's headquarters from the top floor.
The inside of the Hero Association's headquarters exuded a futuristic, sci-fi vibe, with silver-white metal surfaces and lighting that made it feel like one was aboard a spaceship.
In the metallic corridor, Feng Ye and Pig God walked side by side, guided by the staff. After a while, a voice called out from ahead.
"Oh, Silver Fang! It's been a while!"
Atomic Samurai appeared in the corridor, waving at Silver Fang, who was approaching from the other end. He then turned his attention to Bang and Genos, who were with Silver Fang. "And Genos and Bald Emperor..."
Bang, his expression unchanging, looked at Atomic Samurai and said, "Please refrain from using that title."
Atomic Samurai laughed it off, scratching the back of his head. "Seems like you're not a fan of that nickname, but it does suit your appearance..."
Bang raised his fist, his face darkening. "Say it again, and I'll knock you flat."
Sensing a threat, Atomic Samurai smiled apologetically. "My apologies, my apologies... Oh, and over there, it seems we have a newly promoted S-Class Hero. Isn't it Lightning Lord?"
He glanced past Bang toward the corridor's bend, where Pig God and Feng Ye were walking toward them.
"Well, well, Feng Ye, how have you been these days?" Bang asked, his arms crossed behind his back.
Feng Ye offered a faint smile in response. "Same old, nothing too exciting."
With Sweet Mask no longer an active hero, Feng Ye, with his handsome looks, elegant abilities, and gentle personality, had become the Hero Association's newest heartthrob.
His ranking had risen from the bottom of the S-Class to the fifteenth position. Above him were Flashy Flash, followed by the likes of Watchdog Man, Pig God, Superalloy Darkshine, Metal Bat, Zombieman, Saitama, and King.
Tanktop Master, Metal Bat, and Superalloy Darkshine were all ranked below him now.
As Bang gu and Feng Ye exchanged greetings, a crisp and pleasant voice rang out from behind Feng Ye. A girl bathed in a glowing light flew towards them and hovered behind Feng Ye. It was none other than the second-ranked S-Class hero, Tornado.
With her hands folded in front of her chest, she looked at Feng Ye and hummed, "So, you're here too."
"What's the matter? Looking for revenge?" Feng Ye glanced at Tornado with a faint smile.
Tornado closed her eyes and turned her head away, her face twisting in annoyance. "Don't think you can get away with what you did so easily. I'll get it back from you sooner or later!"
"I'll look forward to it," Feng Ye replied with a light laugh as he started walking forward.
Tornado's eyes snapped open as she watched Feng Ye walk away. She stomped her foot in frustration and called out, "Hey! What kind of reaction is that? Are you just going to ignore me?!"
Saitama pointed at Tornado and asked, "Who's that noisy brat? Did she get lost or something?"
Tornado's face darkened as she glared at Saitama. Realizing who had spoken, she felt a surge of anger well up within her. "Brat? How rude! You baldy!"
Huffing indignantly, she quickly flew off, catching up with Feng Ye and disappearing with him at the end of the corridor.
Saitama: "..."
Standing beside Saitama, Genos explained, "That's Tornado, the second-ranked S-Class hero. She's a psychic who takes down monsters with her powers, similar to Lightning Max."
"Oh, that's cool," Saitama replied, intrigued.
Saitama broke the awkward silence by smashing his fist into his palm, then proceeded to walk forward, joining Bang gu and the others at the end of the corridor, where they entered a room that served as a conference room.
It was a modest-sized room with an elliptical conference table in the center, surrounded by a total of nineteen chairs, most of which were already occupied.
Disappointed, the stick-eating esper known as Child Emperor looked towards an empty chair at the far end of the table and remarked, "The number one guy isn't here again. I was hoping to see him this time."
With Saitama and the others entering the room, only two seats remained unoccupied: one belonging to Metal Knight, the sixth-ranked S-Class hero, and the other to Blast, the top-ranked S-Class hero.
Resting her cheek on her hand, Tornado glanced at Blast's empty seat before scanning the room, her eyes eventually settling on Feng Ye, who sat directly across from her.
That guy...
If only he wasn't so annoying, he'd actually be quite handsome.
Tornado's thoughts trailed off as she noticed Feng Ye looking back at her. She quickly averted her gaze and huffed, "Please don't stare. And by the way, what's this gathering even about?"
