"You really are a lunatic."
Garou recalled the appearance of God and felt that King's idea was too crazy. He actually dared to take the initiative to challenge God.
"Earth cannot withstand such turmoil. The aftermath of our battle just now destroyed a planet."
King's words made Garou fall into deep thought. Currently, the human population on Earth had plummeted to less than 30%. If another major disaster occurred, there was a risk of extinction.
"Can you find its location?"
Garou thought of Bang and Tareo, and ultimately made up his mind to stand with King.
"I have some leads. I will go over first to test the waters. Your task is to protect Earth and be ready at any time to deal with the descending God's agents and Divine Emissaries." King said solemnly.
If he left Earth, probably only Garou and Saitama could protect it.
"Divine Emissaries? Are you talking about that guy who appeared a while ago? He did feel different to me."
Garou, who had recovered most of his strength, estimated and found that if he were to face Kira, he still wouldn't have a sure chance of victory.
"Yes. They seem to be coming for me, and I suspect that there is an 80% chance they are not beings from this dimension."
"However, just in case, you still need to be careful. I believe Saitama will definitely step in at a critical moment."
King instructed earnestly, as the risks this time were too great.
"I understand. That guy is indeed very strong, but we can't rely on him for everything."
Garou maintained his pride and would not easily ask Saitama for help.
"Also, try to take the battle outside of Earth so we can let loose."
Earth couldn't withstand any more destruction, which was the reason why King wanted to take the initiative to explore God's location.
"I understand. Leave this place to me."
...
Bidding farewell to Garou, King went to an empty mountain forest.
"Let's do it here, the location is far enough."
King was currently at the edge of Earth, a place rarely visited by people. No human would ever live in such a place. This was also to prevent God from tracking his spatial coordinates and launching an attack if he were targeted.
"Phew... Then let's begin."
King took out the mysterious cube he had obtained from Empty Void and gradually began to infuse it with Union Power.
Hum!
A unique spatial fluctuation spread out, and a portal appeared in front of King.
Swish!
King stepped into it without hesitation, and then the portal disappeared.
—
Woo woo woo!
On the boundless lunar surface, the wind was howling. If King didn't know his location, he would have thought this was another planet.
'This is indeed the moon, but it exists in a higher dimensional space. No wonder no one has ever discovered the traces of God. However, Blast and the others who have been fighting against God should know some inside information, more or less.'
King thought silently to himself.
If Blast knew that he had come here alone to search for God's traces, he would definitely step in to stop him.
When Saitama fought Boros, he was knocked onto the moon, but God did not make a move at that time.
'It should be unable to pass through the dimensional barrier, otherwise it would have visited Earth personally long ago. But once creatures of lower dimensions master Dimensional Power and coordinates, they can come over through a portal.'
King gradually figured out the sequence of events, which was why Blast had been able to fight against God all this time.
'Next is to test its strength. I wonder how big the gap is between us.'
Just then, King felt an aura like an abyss appear behind him, locking onto him firmly.
"Gulp. Is this God?"
King swallowed his saliva and turned his head with difficulty to look. He saw a terrifying humanoid monster, a hundred meters tall and covered in blood vessels, standing on the moon. Its face was pointed in his direction, and the energy radiating from its body made him feel a sense of suffocation.
"I didn't expect you to actually dare to come here." God's voice rang directly in King's mind.
Just a single sentence made his mind feel a wave of dizziness.
"God-sama, I have come to defect to you. How can those ants on Earth compare to me?"
King forced a smile, thinking to himself that he should try to bluff first, as God's strength far exceeded his expectations.
"I can feel a disgusting power inside your body." God's voice rang out again.
King's heart skipped a beat, he naturally understood that it was referring to Darkness Power.
"God-sama, you don't know this, but I was driven out by the people on Earth, and it took me great effort to find this place."
"In order to spread your spirit, I have been painstakingly trying to persuade them. But they regarded me as a heretic and forcibly infused me with a power, wanting to erase my Divine Power."
King spouted nonsense, his mind already racing, thinking about how to escape in a while.
"Open your mind, show your loyalty, and I shall bestow power upon you."
God's words made King ecstatic, and he immediately let down all his defenses.
"Very well, God-sama, hurry and wash me with your power. I will be your most loyal servant, destroying all beings who dare to oppose you."
A look of fanaticism appeared in King's eyes, as if he were truly bewitched by God's words, but in his heart, he was already overjoyed.
'Hahaha! You want to manipulate me through my mind? Do you think the system is just for show? I'll take this opportunity to ruthlessly fuse with Divine Power.'
In King's expectant eyes, God's giant finger tapped lightly, and streams of pure Divine Power poured madly into King's body.
[Ding! Detected Divine Power, beginning fusion!]
[1%... 2%... 3%...]
King watched the constantly increasing progress bar, ecstatic.
Under his control, the system did not convert it into Union Power for the time being, to avoid making the God suspicious.
"Eh? Why does that power still exist?"
God gradually discovered that something was wrong. The Divine Power had indeed perfectly integrated into King's body, but that power that disgusted it was still there, and it even seemed to have strengthened.
"Respected God-sama, that is because the power you infused is not enough. Hurry and help your most loyal, reliable, and lovable believer achieve liberation. I am willing to accept your power and be your spokesperson." King hurriedly said.
He had only absorbed less than 10% now, he absolutely could not let all his previous efforts go to waste.
God, filled with doubt, continued to infuse Divine Power.
One hour... two hours...
