The Emperor Engine's God-like Skill System

Although King was harassed by the reporter during the Q&A session, he did not feel angry or resentful. His decision to pursue Homeless Emperor was simply the best course of action based on the current situation.

If left unchecked, both the Homeless Emperor and that giant centipede will undoubtedly pose a significant threat to the city in the future.

"No, no, please, please get me out of here first!"

The reporter's voice trembled and choked with sobs.

After the strange attack, he was terrified and feared that King would abandon him.

"Please get me out of here first! I beg you!"

"I have money, I have tons of money! I can give you as much as you want!"

"I'm also a well-known journalist. I'll write a column for you to praise your achievements, Lord King!"

At this moment, the reporter's tone was full of respect for King, and the previous difficulties and targeting during the Q&A session had completely vanished.

At the time, he deliberately raised sensitive issues, blaming King for not being able to arrive at the scene immediately when the monsters attacked.

But now this reporter wants to hold King back, completely disregarding the potential danger outside, and only wants King to save him first.

This is rather ironic.

"Those people outside are just ordinary civilians!"

The reporter's pleas gradually turned into somewhat hysterical screams, and now he finally revealed his true colors.

He doesn't actually care about the safety of the people at all; all he cares about is protecting himself. He deliberately made things difficult for King earlier in order to increase the topicality of this interview and make himself both famous and wealthy.

Hearing the reporter's shouts, a hint of disdain appeared on Sweet Mask's face.

At this moment, King continued walking, completely ignoring the reporters' presence, and went straight to the hole left by Homeless Emperor, jumping down into it.

Just then, hurried footsteps came from outside the door—Fubuki and the other heroes nearby had arrived.

"King, are you alright?"

Fubuki shouted anxiously. Although she knew that her abilities were somewhat lacking, she still wanted to provide King with some support as soon as possible.

However, she did not notice King's presence, but only saw Sweet Mask.

The other heroes noticed the mess in the room, filled with blood and remains, and couldn't help but swallow hard. They knew these were all the corpses of monsters, and could imagine how brutal the battle had been.

As Psykos, who had come up with Fubuki and the others, looked at the mangled corpses on the ground and saw the lingering terror in Hayate and Karma's eyes even after their deaths, her expression gradually became complicated.

These disobedient subordinates indeed suffered the consequences. He had repeatedly instructed them not to act rashly without his orders, but they still went their own way and challenged someone they absolutely could not provoke, ultimately ending up in such a tragic state.

Sykes had no feelings for these strange people; to her, they were just a group of pawns with some power.

Disobedient pawns have no value. Their elimination by King will certainly reduce the association's fighting strength, but it is actually a good thing for Sykes.

But Sykes felt an increasing fear of King.

If none of the four Dragon-level monsters posed any threat to King, then what else could possibly threaten him?

Even the strongest monster Orochi he created might not be a match for King.

King's true strength is far more terrifying than any of Pikes could have imagined...

Before witnessing King's true power, Psykos originally planned to lead the Monster Association in a fierce attack on the surface of the world this year, but this means her plans will be postponed indefinitely.

For Sykes, King is now like an insurmountable mountain.

The thought made Sykes bite her lower lip uncontrollably.

"King went to chase after the remaining monsters, and there's nothing we can do to stop him."

Sweet Mask had almost fully recovered from his injuries by this time. He dusted himself off and addressed the other heroes.

"What are you all standing there for? Get to the evacuation work now!"

While Sweet Mask was loudly berating the other heroes, his gaze drifted through a hole in the wall, where he could clearly see rows of enormous black scales following the massive body of the creature.

That was no longer a battle he could participate in.

......

Inside the Hero Association headquarters, the executives are now in complete chaos.

"What's going on?!"

"A strange group of people suddenly launched an attack in the city center?"

"No... that guy is... Elder Centipede?!"

On the large screen in the command center, the image of Elder Centipede appearing was prominently displayed.

Upon seeing Elder Centipede, the association's cadres all became solemn.

Elder Centipede had appeared once a few years ago.

Its entire body is over several thousand meters long, and even a single roll could destroy a city.

It was only thanks to Blast, the number one hero in the S-class rankings, that Elder Centipede was successfully repelled, but he was not completely killed.

Now that the explosion has long since disappeared, who can stop such a terrifying existence as Elder Centipede?

"Where's Tornado? Where's Metal Knight?!"

"The tornado is moving at top speed, but it will still take some time..."

"We can't get in touch with Metal Knight..."

Just when almost everyone was at a loss, Sitch slowly spoke:

"Don't forget, we have another trump card."

"The strongest hero on Earth is here!"

Sicchi wore a confident smile.

“We still have King.”

......

"Homeless Emperor, what happened?"

Elder Centipede questioned the Wandering Emperor standing on him, his voice like a thunderclap, forcing the latter to cover his ears to relieve the pain in his eardrums.

It is a colossal beast with a body length exceeding several thousand meters. Its tens of thousands of arthropod legs are like giant blades, and the scales covering its body emit a metallic luster, like an impenetrable wall of copper and iron. The friction sound between the scales is unbearable for ordinary people.

In the center of its enormous head is a weathered human face, covered by layers of skin, full of wrinkles.

"Quick, let's go!"

"Homeless Emperor!" the homeless man said hastily, his eyes filled with terror as he repeatedly turned his head, searching for King.

"King is a monster!"

"What about the rest?"

"All dead!"

Homeless Emperor's voice trembled slightly as he kept recalling the scene from just now.

King overwhelmed the ugly president with his strength and surpassed the speed of Wind and Fire.

That guy is a monster.

"Those guys were actually killed?"

Elder Centipede's tone carried a hint of surprise; it hadn't expected that four executives of the Monster Association couldn't defeat a single King.

Even after learning this information, Elder Centipede was not particularly alarmed.

Because with its strength, it could easily be among the top three in the Monster Association.

It's not just its enormous size and terrifying strength; most importantly, Elder Centipede possesses the ability to shed its skin infinitely.

Its shell is much harder than steel. Moreover, even if it is seriously injured, the centipede elder can quickly molt and regenerate, further enhancing its defense.

This is also why Elder Centipede was able to survive the attacks of Blast.

After several years of dormancy, Elder Centipede's strength has already reached a new level.

"What's the panic?"

"They lost their lives simply because they were incompetent."

"No matter how strong King is, he can never be my match."

Elder Centipede spoke slowly.

"is it?"

Just then, King's voice suddenly came.

Homeless Emperor turned around abruptly, only to find that King was already standing behind him.

He hadn't noticed it at all.

"when....."

King had just jumped down from a height of more than ten stories and landed directly on the ground. He then used the teleportation technique he learned from Feng and Huo to move onto Elder Centipede.

For ninjas in ninja villages, mastering this special method of movement is extremely difficult, requiring ten or even twenty years to achieve. Hayate and Karma are among the best in the ninja village, and few can compare to them.

King learned these moves completely after just one glance, as if they were an instinct, and his mastery of them even surpassed that of Gale and Karmic Fire.

This is the power of divine vision.

Copying other people's skills.

And it's faster and stronger!

"This is my first time participating in a television interview program."

King spoke slowly, looking expressionlessly at the homeless emperor before him.

You need to apologize to me properly!

"go to hell!"

At this point, Homeless Emperor couldn't care less about anything else and unleashed his full firepower at King.

"A full-scale critical hit!"

Countless tiny orbs of light immediately appeared around the Homeless Emperor, each about the size of a football, much smaller than the previous attack—but in much greater numbers.
