The Emperor Engine's God-like Skill System

"Is there a problem?"

King originally only wanted to ask Tornado why she was so agitated, but his deep voice and somewhat mechanical tone made his words sound like a rhetorical question.

Taking this opportunity, Fubuki stood behind King, like a little brother following him.

Upon hearing King's words, Tornado paused slightly in surprise:

"Is this King's plan?"

Tornado was a bit impatient. Upon hearing about Fubuki's situation, she rushed over without knowing that King was also involved in this hero event.

She was initially a little worried about Fubuki, but with King with her, she was fine.

With King around, there shouldn't be any problems...

But why is Fubuki with King?

And was King a little angry just now?

Tornado had some doubts, but she was also a person who valued her pride. Even though King was the strongest person on Earth, she couldn't easily back down.

"Fukuru, it seems you've made some progress. You've learned to learn from heroes who are stronger than you."

Tornado steered the conversation toward Fubuki, her gaze involuntarily falling on King before quickly shifting back to Fubuki behind her.

"Today, King has been guiding our Blizzard Group through the activities."

Fubuki said, feigning arrogance.

"The Fubuki Group, those B-rank club guys of yours? They're nothing but a burden..."

Tornado's initial tone was somewhat disdainful, but considering King's presence, she didn't say anything more.

"Forget it, I'm not going to interfere in your affairs anymore. Do whatever you want."

"I'm tired, I'm going back to rest."

After speaking, Tornado used her superpowers again to quickly leave the office, slamming the already damaged door shut behind her as she left.

Looking at the closed door, Fubuki breathed a sigh of relief, while secretly delighted.

This is the first time I've seen my sister like this!

It seems that choosing to get closer to King was definitely the right decision!

If this continues, the Fubuki Group's popularity in society will greatly increase!

Just thinking about this made Fubuki's lips curl up slightly.

Only King stood there, somewhat bewildered.

What's the deal with these two sisters?

"that......"

Sitch cleared his throat a few times and continued,

"You did an excellent job this time, providing very important information!"

"The Blizzard Team performed wonderfully..."

"Mr. King has defeated another Dragon-level monster... It's truly an incredibly fortunate thing for Mr. King to join our Hero Association!"

After King joined the Hero Association, he eliminated many enemies who posed a great threat, which made Sitch even more certain that his previous choice to recruit King into the Hero Association under any circumstances was the right one.

"If there's nothing else, we'll be going now."

King said calmly that all he wanted to do right now was go home and play his favorite game for a while.

Today was a busy day, but I can finally relax a bit.

"Okay, you guys go back and get some rest!"

Sitch nodded.

"I will immediately report the matter of the no-man's-land in Z City to my superiors, and they will then send heroes to continue the investigation."

......

Soon after, news of King and the Fubuki Group's trip to the no-man's-land in Z-City spread throughout the Hero Association.

"Could such a secret be hidden in the deserted area of ​​Z City? Could it be a gathering place for strange people?"

"There are even Dragon-level monsters? They say one punch from one of them can destroy a whole street!"

"As expected of King, he's defeated another monster. The difference in strength is just too great!"

After hearing about this, the heroes discussed it animatedly.

On the set of a movie, Sweet Mask also learned about King.

"Sweet Mask, the TV station said they want to do a hero interview program next month. Do you want to take it?"

"The manager standing next to Sweet Mask asked."

"can."

Sweet Mask pondered for a moment, then smiled, a new idea forming in his mind.

Chapter Sixty: Undercurrents, the Monster Association Hidden Underground

Around six o'clock in the evening, Fubuki and King had returned home.

Along the way, as the joy of achieving great things with King gradually faded, Fubuki gradually fell into thought, recalling the events of the day. In her years as a hero, she had only seen a few Demon-level monsters, let alone Dragon-level monsters.

After meeting Haojie today, she fully realized the gap in their strength.

There was already an insurmountable gap between himself and Dragon-level monsters, and Gouketsu was as insignificant as an ant in front of King.

That sense of defeat lingered in Fubuki's heart for a long time.

However, everything that happened today made Fubuki even clearer about her future goals—to follow King in hero activities as much as possible, create more achievements to increase the influence of the Fubuki Group, and at the same time improve her own strength.

Once home, she quickly shook her head, a smile appearing on her face, and turned to look at King beside her:

"King, what would you like to eat tonight?"

Thanks to King today, Fubuki and her team were able to achieve unprecedented success. The scene of King saving her today is still vivid in her mind, and Fubuki wants to take this opportunity to repay King.

"Me..."

King thought for a moment.

"I can do it."

"Let's have hot pot tonight!"

Fubuki's smile widened, and her eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

"I'll go prepare the ingredients. King, you go and rest first. I'll call you when the food is ready."

"Well, hard work."

King nodded and then returned to his room.

He lay down on the bed and the first thing he did was open his system panel to see how many reputation points he had gained that day.

As King expected, his reputation value increased dramatically today because he went to a no-man's land that no one dared to approach and killed a Dragon-level monster. Such an action was undoubtedly sensational.

King's reputation value has broken through the 50 million mark today, and is even approaching 55 million.

"The influence of Dragon-level monsters and the No Man's Land is indeed significant."

King nodded in satisfaction, realizing that hunting high-level monsters to increase reputation was far more efficient than clearing out low-level monsters.

Recalling the strange people's reaction today, King realized that the strange people seemed to have gathered together and were plotting something.

This piqued King's curiosity, but he wasn't worried. To him, these strange people were just experience points to give him reputation points.

......

Meanwhile, underground in the no-man's-land of Z City.

The headquarters of the Monster Association has been relocated to a deeper part of the earth. In the no-man's-land, the former entrances have been completely blocked and buried in ruins, and all other evidence related to the activities of the monsters has been completely destroyed.

In this way, even if the Hero Association sends heroes to the no-man's land to investigate, it will be difficult to find any trace of the Monster Association.

Inside the headquarters, several executives of the Monster Association stood together, surrounded by tens of thousands of low-level monsters who dared not approach, only looking at the executives with awe.

Every executive in the Monster Association possesses at least Dragon-level strength, a significant difference in power compared to other monsters.

"Hey, I think Haojie is pretty strong."

A short, jet-black, capsule-shaped figure stood with his arms crossed, and said with a hint of disdain,

"It's truly shameful that an official was so easily eliminated."

It is a black sperm, one of the executives, possessing an almost unlimited ability to divide.

"The opponent is King, so it's understandable that he lost."

On the other side, a very ordinary-looking man spoke slowly. He was dressed sloppily, with a tattered piece of cloth slung over his back as a cape, and a plastic crown on his head. He was leaning against the wall.

He is Homeless Emperor. Unlike other monsters, Homeless Emperor is still within the human realm. A month before joining the Monster Association, he was a homeless man who was kicked out of human society because he lost his job and could not pay his rent. While looking up at the sky, he awakened his hatred for humanity, which earned him the favor of "gods" and was given powerful strength. He then took this opportunity to join the Monster Association.

"Let's go kill King now!"

A strange man named Ugly President said that he was huge and bloated, and his face was so ugly that even among monsters, he was incredibly ugly and nauseating just to look at him.

"Don't rush."

Just then, right in front of all the cadres, Big Eyes slowly spoke.

No one in the Monster Association knows that Gyoro Gyoro's true identity is actually Psykos.

After receiving treatment from the Hero Association, Psykos secretly returned to her base and once again used the identity of Gyoro Gyoro to control the Monster Association.

Although the Dragon-level executives in the Monster Association possess immense strength, they are only temporarily aligned due to shared interests; their hearts are not truly united.

If it weren't for Psykos using her Gyoro Gyoro and Orochi to intimidate them, the Monster Association would probably have fallen apart long ago.

"King's strength is terrifying; none of us can fight against him."

Sykes said she recalled how, during the day, King had almost completely dominated the hero.

That scene left Sykes with a lingering sense of fear.
