"Absorb!"
The parts of Tech scattered on the ground were instantly absorbed by another Machine God, and immediately after, boulders came crashing toward King.
"Absorbing mechanical parts to strengthen yourself?"
King raised his finger slightly, and the boulders all changed direction, flying toward the remaining two Machine Gods.
Boom, boom, boom!
Mirror fired several energy balls, shattering the boulders, and then the massive body of Machine God Bodi arrived behind King.
"Watch out!" Dr. Kuseno hurriedly shouted a warning.
The combat power of these three Machine Gods far exceeded his expectations and was completely different from the data collected in the past. It seemed they had undergone some peculiar changes, and their combat power exceeded that of average S-Class Heroes.
"It seems that after being endowed with Divine Power, you have completely become puppets."
King understood at this moment that the mastermind behind these robots was likely also being manipulated by a God, which was why such a large-scale war had been launched.
Boom!
With another punch piercing through the core area, Bodi was left with only its lower half standing alone on the spot.
"This..."
Dr. Kuseno was stunned by King's terrifying combat power. These were Dragon-level mechs, yet in front of this man, they were like toys.
"Intelligence error. Target combat power inconsistent with data. Full output."
The detector on Mirror's head flickered, and it created a huge energy ball, seemingly intent on destroying the entire underground research base.
"It's useless."
King remained motionless. Light orbs composed of Union Power shot out, piercing through the energy ball.
"Are you going to confess yourself, or should I force it out of you?"
King looked at the only remaining Mirror, recalling the first time he fought against it, when he had almost lost his life at its hands.
Now, things had changed. The Organization could no longer stir up any trouble in front of him.
"Combat simulation: zero chance of winning. Initiate self-destruct!"
Bang!
Before Mirror could make any other move, its body was decomposed into countless pieces by immense Psychokinesis, and its core floated into King's hand.
"Doctor, Genos might be able to use these parts." King smiled slightly.
Dr. Kuseno looked a bit dazed. A Dragon-level Machine God had been dealt with so casually—this man was terrifying.
"King, thank you."
King asked, "Can you find the mastermind's location through the core?"
"I'll try, but I'll probably only be able to determine a general area, as their movements have always been very concealed."
"It's fine, that's enough."
Since he knew God was behind this, digging out the mastermind would be very simple. As long as the general location could be determined, the Divine Power would be like a lighthouse in the dark, exceptionally dazzling.
—
In the city, the robot army had begun to slaughter without restraint. The government's military had been fully deployed, yet they were still retreating steadily in the face of the mechanical army.
Consecutive Heavy Cannons!
Boom, boom, boom!
Countless palm strikes cleared away dozens of robots in front. The one attacking was Raiden, who had once participated in the encirclement of Dark Mask.
"The Battle Suit issued by Neo Heroes is really useful, my combat power has increased significantly."
Raiden's whole body was wrapped in a Battle Suit, and both his speed and strength had been greatly enhanced.
Angel Rush!
Boom!
At this moment, another explosion sounded, and a naked figure appeared on the street, continuously killing robots.
"Who are you?"
"S-Class Hero, Puri-Puri Prisoner. I saw your battle just now, it was quite good." Puri-Puri Prisoner gave Raiden a thumbs up, a smile appearing on his face.
"Hero Association? Is that the detestable place in A-City that is filthy to the core?" Raiden's eyes turned cold.
He had heard quite a few rumors about the Hero Association and despised such mercenary organizations from the bottom of his heart.
He didn't believe the rumors about Neo Heroes at all. Things like maliciously harming executives or raising monsters were simply absurd.
Moreover, these words came from the former Hero Association hero Dark Mask. How could anything a monster said be true?
Perhaps this was all an arrangement by the Hero Association, attempting to smear Neo Heroes.
Hearing Raiden's words, Puri-Puri Prisoner's expression became serious. "We are also people who risk our lives for humanity and fight hard."
Raiden said with a sincere expression, "I'm not saying there's anything wrong with what you do, but you shouldn't be used by such an Organization."
"After this war ends, you will see clearly who the true guardian of humanity is. If you want to fight for the future of humanity, then it's best to join Neo Heroes."
In his view, most heroes were deceived by the upper echelons of the Hero Association, who used their power to serve a wealthy few.
"Neo Heroes?" Puri-Puri Prisoner fell silent.
He knew that several S-Class Heroes, including Child Emperor, had defected to Neo Heroes, but he knew in his heart that those heroes must have had their own reasons for doing so.
"Is what you're wearing Neo Heroes' Battle Suit?" Puri-Puri Prisoner noticed the clothing on Raiden and asked curiously.
"You mean this? Yes, all executives have one, and it can develop your potential to the limit." A look of pride appeared on Raiden's face, this was the symbol of Neo Heroes' power.
'If I meet that guy again, I will definitely defeat him easily.'
The image of Dark Mask appeared in Raiden's mind, being defeated by a monster was his greatest humiliation.
"Watch out!"
Puri-Puri Prisoner punched and exploded a robot that suddenly lunged over. At this moment, the place where they were located had already fallen.
"Watch closely, the strength of a Neo Heroes executive!"
Raiden looked at the army of robots surrounding him with a disdainful gaze, but just as he was about to attack, he discovered that his body was no longer under his control.
"What is going on?!"
Raiden's bpdy began to twist continuously.
Puri-Puri Prisoner immediately sensed something was wrong. "Are you okay?"
Boom!
Raiden's punch slammed into Puri-Puri Prisoner, sending him flying.
"Damn it! My body is out of control! Could everything that guy said be true?!"
Raiden tried desperately to regain control of his body, but his body still moved involuntarily.
"Neo Heroes uses the Battle Suit to control their executives, assassinates members within their organisation, and then transforms them into mindless cyborgs to be controlled."
"Secretly raising monsters, just to provide entertainment for the wealthy to gamble on."
"Colluding with the Organization, attempting to overthrow human society—the dirty things you've done, sooner or later, I will come to settle the score myself."
The words Dark Mask had once spoken kept echoing in Raiden's ears. At this moment, he had fallen into despair.
"Damn it! How could it be like this!!!"
