Plop!
King tumbled out of the portal. At this moment, he was drenched in blood, and one could barely make out that he was human.
"Saved! That person just now seemed to be..." King breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he was severely injured this time, it was fortunate that he returned alive. He wouldn't dare to be so reckless next time, he almost killed himself.
'Can't be greedy, dammit. Next time, I'll just bring Saitama along and kill that guy.'
Just as King was thinking about what to do next, a short figure ran to his side.
"Hmm? What the hell?!"
King felt a familiar aura, and then he was lifted up and moved quickly toward the distance.
"What the hell? Where are you taking me!"
King wanted to struggle, but he was too severely injured right now to even move a finger. However, with his current physical strength, as long as he didn't encounter a Dragon-level Monster, there would basically be no danger to his life.
"Hmm? Isn't this...?!"
The further they went, the more familiar the scene before him became. Soon after, he was carried into the tunnel.
'As expected, it's the Monster Association, so this guy must be a clone of Black Sperm.'
King immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Returning here meant he was safe. With Psykos and Sweet Mask here, as long as a Divine Emissary didn't descend, he shouldn't need to worry about safety issues.
"King?!"
Psykos's voice rang out, and at the same time, many footsteps could be heard.
"How did this happen? What kind of enemy did you encounter?!" Sweet Mask's face was filled with shock.
The man who symbolized the strongest in his eyes had actually been injured like this.
"God."
Sweet Mask's pupils constricted, he naturally knew what God meant.
"That was too reckless. I'll treat you immediately."
Psykos wanted to help King wipe the blood off his body, but she was stopped.
"No need. Skin wounds will heal on their own soon. The trouble is that this time, my foundation was damaged." King sighed.
He was severely injured this time and didn't know when he would recover. However, at the last moment, it seemed God was blocked by a powerhouse from another dimension, so he didn't worry that the other party would continue to attack Earth.
"Then, do you want to fuse some monster cells? I've recently cultivated many brand-new Monsters, and they possess various abilities." Psykos said seriously.
With the help of Dr. Genus, she was becoming increasingly adept at cultivating Monsters. Although she hadn't yet cultivated a powerhouse similar to Orochi, the Monsters possessed all sorts of strange abilities.
"Various abilities?" King's eyes lit up, and a strange idea sprouted in his mind.
"Take me inside."
Psykos brought King into the laboratory and, following his request, took out all the recently developed monster cells.
"Will it be very bitter?"
King looked at the pulsating monster cells, thinking to himself that it was no wonder Sonic had to cook them before eating, their appearance was indeed unappealing.
"It's fine, I added strawberry juice to them."
Psykos smiled.
"Come. Let me feed you. Ah..."
King took a deep breath, recalling how many monsters he had devoured before, mere monster cells should be a piece of cake.
He closed his eyes, swallowed the monster cell, and then waited quietly.
[Ding! Detected Tiger-level Monster talent, Talent: Spitting. Automatically fusing, Hero's Heart progress increased by 0.000001%.]
'Holy crap! It really works! But what the hell is spitting?'
King was overjoyed, he hadn't expected that the monster cells cultivated by Psykos would actually contain a talent.
At this moment, he could feel that the damage to his foundation had recovered a little bit. Although it wasn't much, it was indeed recovering.
"Great! How many more monster cells like this are there?"
King swallowed a few more monster cells, recovered his mobility, and asked with an excited face.
"There are about a thousand that can be used, the rest are still being cultivated." Psykos answered.
"If I devour them all, will it affect your research?" King asked.
"No problem, these mature monster cells can be re-cultivated at any time."
Seeing that the monster cells she had cultivated could help King recover from his injuries, Psykos was overjoyed.
"Okay. Then bring them all here. I need to hurry up and recover from my injuries." King set his mind at ease.
Since he had found a way to recover, everything else would be easy to handle.
[Ding! Detected Tiger-level Monster talent, automatically fusing, Hero's Heart progress increased by 0.000002%.]
[Ding! Detected Demon-level Monster talent, automatically fusing, Hero's Heart progress increased by 0.05%.]
[Ding! Detected Demon-level Monster talent, automatically fusing, Hero's Heart progress increased by 0.1%.]
...
[Ding! Detected Dragon-level Monster talent, automatically fusing, Hero's Heart progress increased by 1%.]
King didn't know how many monster cells he had devoured, most of which were Demon-level monster talents. However, there were also a few Dragon-level ones.
'Hero's Heart progress has reached 75 percent, and the injuries have also recovered quite a bit.' King let out a long sigh of relief.
Earlier, when fighting God, the continuous use of Saitama Form had almost caused his physical body to collapse.
"Is God very powerful?" Psykos asked softly with a look of concern.
"Yes, it is the strongest enemy I have encountered so far. Fortunately, its main body cannot descend to Earth, otherwise, humanity would have long ceased to exist."
Thinking about the battle with God still left King feeling lingering fear. He had experienced life-and-death battles many times, but this time, in front of God's absolute crushing strength, it was the first time he felt some despair. If he hadn't activated Limit Break, he might have been imprisoned by God long ago.
"However, we are not fighting alone."
The figure that appeared at the end emerged in King's mind, it was identical to Boros of the Dark Matter Thieves.
'Boros from a parallel universe? I owe him a favor.' King thought silently to himself.
If it hadn't been for his intervention, he wouldn't have returned to Earth so smoothly.
'Are they the powerhouses from another dimension who fight side-by-side with Blast? Their strength is extraordinary.' King couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
He could feel the attack the other party launched against God, its power was definitely not below his own.
"Then what should we do next?" Psykos asked, worried.
Since even someone as strong as King couldn't defeat God, there was no need to mention the current strength of the Monster Association.
"This time wasn't without any gains. Next, I will continue to infuse Union Power for you all to get stronger as much as possible."
"Next up are the other holders of the Hero's Heart. To fight against God, we must rely on everyone's strength."
