[Hand of King: Condense energy, manifest a hand to annihilate all invading enemies.]
[Ding! Automatically assimilating the talent of the S-Class Rank 1 Hero, Blast. Hero's Heart progress increased by 10%.]
'Holy crap! It just gave 10% progress just like that?!'
The previous three S-Class talents only gave about 5% progress, but Blast's talent provided 10% directly.
[Ding! Hero's Heart progress reached 70%, activating Limit Break.]
[Limit Break: Surpass physical limits in the short term, applicable to all skills, lasts 30 minutes]
A surge of immense power emerged. King's body, which was on the verge of collapse, instantly recovered to its original state, and his physical strength continued to increase.
"Whew... What terrifying power." King's eyes lit up.
He could clearly feel that his physical strength had risen to a new height.
[Physical Strength: Ex-Class!]
Checking the system panel, King found that his physical strength had changed from the Peak SSS-Class Ex-Class.
"I wonder how much power I can unleash now if I use the Serious Series." King's lips curled up slightly.
For the final blow just now, he had barely managed to unleash a Serious Punch. As for its power, it was definitely far behind Saitama's, but it still managed to obliterate the manifested Fist of God.
"The strength of the Divine Emissaries descending recently is getting stronger and stronger. I don't know why, but I feel like they don't seem to be from this dimension."
King began to think carefully. Whether it was Sakura or Kira, their strength was far superior to the God's agents on Earth. Moreover, there was absolutely no sign before they appeared, leaving no trace to follow, as if they had popped out of thin air.
Therefore, he had suspected that these so-called Divine Emissaries were not from this dimension, and it was very likely that they were powerhouses from other dimensions.
Through the mysterious cube, King already knew that God was hiding in an alternate dimension on the far side of the moon. Because of some obstacles, it could not descend to Earth in person, so it could only bestow Divine Power upon humans or monsters on Earth, and then control them through consciousness to destroy humanity.
The strength of God's agents was certainly formidable, but they were cleared out every time by top powerhouses like Saitama or Blast. But this time, his appearance kept attracting powerful Divine Emissaries to descend.
Since God could dispatch such strong forces, why had it created God's agents before?
"Unless these Divine Emissaries weren't sent by it." King narrowed his eyes.
After careful consideration, he reached a shocking conclusion.
"It seems there are other forces in the universe."
King looked out at the vast universe, his mind filled with a thousand thoughts for a moment.
"No matter who you are, sooner or later, I will deal with you personally."
King tapped his fists together, and a portal appeared. He stepped into it without hesitation.
The void fell into silence once again, with only the remaining planetary fragments telling of the earth-shattering battle that had just occurred.
—
Inside the dojo.
Bang, Garou, and Mumen Rider were waiting. At this time, all the other students had already been dismissed.
"Old man, do you think King can do it?" Garou was the first one unable to hold back, and asked aloud.
"If it's King-san, there will definitely be no problem. Whether it is a monster or God, neither can be his match."
Before Bang could answer, Mumen Rider said excitedly. He did not believe that King would be defeated by God.
"Even though you say that, I personally felt that immense power..." Garou gradually fell silent.
Although the combat power King had displayed earlier also shocked him greatly, the strength shown by Kira was on another level. Even someone like Garou, who possessed the determination to carry out his own martial arts, did not believe that he could currently confront such an existence.
"Garou, Mumen Rider is right. We must believe in King, his strength is by no means as simple as we see." Bang said with a firm gaze.
He had gradually understood King's words. In his and Garou's current state, no matter how much they improved, it would be impossible to confront God. To protect the Earth and safeguard all of humanity, one must seek higher-level power. If it could be integrated into their martial arts, perhaps there would be unexpected results.
Hum!
A ripple suddenly appeared in the room, and King stepped out from it..
"King-san!" Mumen Rider's face was full of surprise.
Although he believed in King's strength on the surface, he was still particularly worried inside. After all, the enemy this time was not a monster, but a God who possessed power surpassing the peak of humanity.
"Did you drive it away?" Bang's eyes were filled with shock.
He hadn't expected that King could banish such a terrifying enemy.
"It took some effort, but fortunately, it was resolved." King's expression was calm.
His performance caused a storm in Garou's heart. 'Such a powerful enemy, and it was resolved so nonchalantly by King. How exactly did he obtain that power that surpasses human limits?'
'What did he mean when he said earlier that he wanted to take me away, and that I was the most suitable? Could it be that I can also possess that kind of power?'
A look of excitement appeared in Garou's eyes. He had an extreme yearning for power.
Originally, he wanted to become the strongest monster, but now he realized how ridiculous his dream was. In front of a God, no matter how strong he was, he was like an ant. The other party could crush him to death easily.
That was power on another level, far beyond human reach, but now King had done it.
[Ding! Assimilating Divine Power, converting it into Union Power, progress increased by 10%.]
The corners of King's lips curled up slightly.
He had indeed guessed correctly. The mysterious cube contained an extremely vast amount of Divine Power, and the mysterious cube obtained this time was different from the one previously obtained from Empty Void.
'If they are really not people from this dimension, then this cube must lead to other dimensions.'
King pondered silently, but he would not try it rashly. The God on the moon had not been resolved yet. If he were to provoke a God from another dimension, Earth would probably really be destroyed.
Saitama might be able to defeat God, but other humans on Earth could not. The mere aftermath of the battle between the two would be enough to cause humanity to perish.
"King, what did you mean by your words earlier? Could it be that I can also obtain this kind of power?" A glimmer flashed in Garou's eyes, his face full of anticipation.
"Of course, no one is more suitable for this power than you." King nodded.
