The Emperor Engine's God-like Skill System

Genos shook his head. The physical data of King displayed on the system was exactly the same as that of the metal bat, which was completely different from reality.

"Genos, since that's the case, why not take this opportunity to see Mr. King's heroic fighting prowess?"

Bang said from the side,

"King isn't just about strength."

As he spoke, Bang smiled slightly, clearly remembering how King had learned his Water Stream Rock Smash Fist in an instant.

"Ah."

Genos also looked up, his gaze fixed on the screen.

......

Inside the simulation space, Metal Bat holds a baseball bat that gleams with a metallic sheen, staring expressionlessly at King—this is why he bears the name of a hero.

These baseball bats are made of a special material that is far harder than steel.

King activated his Divine Vision, and blood-red patterns appeared in his eyes. He could clearly see the flow of blood and the relaxation of muscles within the metal bat.

In a second, the metal bat had already swung its weapon and smashed it down on King.

Their strength and speed completely surpass those of ordinary people, which is the source of the power of S-class heroes.

Even so, in King's eyes, the metal bat's movements were like a movie in slow motion.

This is the power of divine vision.

Just as the metal bat came at him, King seized the opportunity, slightly turned his body, and dodged the attack.

The metal bat passed right in front of King, who could clearly feel a gust of wind blowing against his face.

The metal baseball bat slammed into the ground with a deafening roar, like a grenade exploding, and even created a huge crater in the ground.

It feels so real.

It was as if it were real.

If an ordinary person were hit by this, they would probably be smashed into a pulp.

King turned his body slightly to the side, not wanting to waste too much time on the metal bat.

"This is a virtual world, right? It's okay to be a little ruthless, isn't it?"

In less than a fraction of a second, King turned around and delivered a chop to Metal Bat's neck.

The latter closed its eyes, collapsed to the ground, and immediately transformed into data composed of 0s and 1s, disappearing from the space.

The metal bat was instantly defeated by King.

Although this combat simulator cannot fully replicate Metal Bat's abilities—in the real world, he possesses an ability he calls 'Aura,' which makes him stronger the more he is injured—he still possesses extraordinary strength and speed in the virtual world.

However, in front of King, they were destined to be instantly defeated.

Moreover, King is currently unable to use the power of the Escanor template.

Even in the real world, this battle would end much sooner.

......

In the real world, more and more heroes are watching the battle.

They had all witnessed the entire battle, but they hadn't expected that the metal bat in the simulated world would be taken down in a single round.

If S-class heroes are monsters, then King is the monster among monsters.

"As expected of Teacher King."

Genos, watching King easily secure victory, clenched his fist in excitement.

"After the teacher leaves, we need to send this equipment to the PhD student for repair."

Just when Genos thought the simulation would end after King defeated Metal Bat, another flash of light appeared on the screen.

Chapter 89: Masterful Skill! King's Skill Begins to Shine!

"Oh?"

King tilted his head slightly, and the familiar light reappeared where the metal bat had been, and the next enemy stepped out.

He was slender with a delicate face like a woman's, long, light yellow hair that reached his shoulders, a black longsword in his hand, and wore a black bodysuit covered by a layer of metal armor.

King narrowed his eyes slightly. The opponent was none other than Flashy Flash, the fourteenth S-class hero.

Although they had only met a few times, King was deeply impressed by Flash, who possessed the fastest speed among S-class heroes.

Like light.

The S-class ranking is not only based on one's own strength, but also on factors such as popularity and performance. This is why Flash, who usually likes to act on his own, is not ranked high.

If we only consider combat power, then Flashy Flash is the strongest among the S-class heroes.

"I hope it will be somewhat challenging."

King stretched his body slightly; to him, this was just the next small monster in the level.

......

Flashy Flash is the fastest hero in the Hero Association.

"And his swordsmanship is no worse than Atomic Samurai's."

"King is actually going to fight Flashy Flash?"

In the real world, the heroes' eyes were all on the big screen, and everyone was a little nervous. Even though it was just a virtual battle that did not actually take place, it was so thrilling.

At that moment, a blinding light flashed on the big screen.

The flash of light from Flash vanished in an instant.

In the next instant, he was already in front of King.

The speed was so fast that almost everyone present didn't have time to react. In their eyes, it was as if Flash had teleported in an instant, and Genos couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Back in the virtual world, Flashy Flash was already close to King in an instant.

All of this happened in less than 0.01 seconds.

His armor reflected light, forming a streak of light as he moved at high speed.

This is the speed of Flash, known as the Flash!

He can kill any weirdo with a single blow; the opponent doesn't even have time to react, and doesn't even feel any pain before being decapitated.

Just as Flame drew his sword, King used a similar footwork to dodge the attack.

"The speed is not bad."

King slightly increased the distance between them and said.

The movement technique he just used was the special method he had learned from Gale and Karmic Fire using Divine Vision.

That's a special technique used only by members of ninja villages.

The ninja village is not a benevolent place; it is a place that trains assassins.

Flashy Flash was also a former member of the ninja village, and arguably the most outstanding one in history.

Flashy Flash killed all the instructors, staff, and fellow students in the village during his graduation examination, completely ending the future of the ninja village, and then joined the Hero Association.

This made the people of the ninja village hate Flashy Flash to the core. The reason why Yehu and Hayate joined the Monster Association was to seek power to take revenge on Flashy ...

"Flash is even faster than Gale and Blaze."

"A skill worth learning."

King thought to himself.

But at that very moment, Flash launched another attack.

[Double Flash Slash]!

He picked up his longsword, gathered his strength into a single point, and then thrust it out with a fierce strike.

The extreme speed blurred the blade; to people in the real world, they could only see a rapidly flowing streak of light.

As the flash of light appeared, everyone present held their breath, knowing that even a blink of an eye could cause them to miss a crucial detail that could determine the outcome of the battle.

If I were facing such an attack, I probably wouldn't even have time to react.

Just then, a series of crisp footsteps rang out from the crowd.

Flash himself had arrived in front of the combat simulator's large screen. He had used the machine several hours earlier, so his data and strength had been recorded by the combat simulator.

He heard that the current King was fighting against the system's simulated version of himself, so he rushed over immediately to see how the battle was going.

As his gaze fell upon the screen, Flash's expression grew increasingly serious.

......

In a simulated world.

Faced with Flashy Flash's murderous attack, King, who possessed the ability to see through the illusion, dodged Flashy Flash's attack and skillfully avoided the blade.

He is now fully capable of keeping up with Flash's speed, and the opponent's strongest advantage has become insignificant in front of him.

Moreover, the skills copied by the God of Illusion are faster and stronger than the originals.

It's fair to say that King's current speed surpasses that of Flair.

However, after dodging the opponent's attack, King did not immediately retaliate, but instead pondered.

This battle will be projected on a big screen, and many people will see it.

Could we take this opportunity to boost our reputation?

Just like when I participated in the martial arts tournament last time.

I deliberately held back and exchanged blows with the water dragon a few times, which significantly increased my reputation.

So this tactic might still be useful today.

Moreover, Flash and Water Dragon are not even in the same league.

Just then, Flash launched another attack.
