The Emperor Engine's God-like Skill System

Although Psykos lost the battle against G4 Machine God, she was not seriously injured, which made Metal Knight very concerned.

Although G4 Machine God's strength is only at the Demon level, it is definitely not something that an ordinary C-class hero can handle.

If a regular C-class hero were to fight a Demon-level monster, they would be severely injured even if they didn't die, but Psykos only suffered minor scratches and seemed completely unharmed.

At the time, Metal Knight's attention was focused on King, completely ignoring Psykos's presence. Now, when he rewatches that route, Metal Knight can clearly feel that Psykos wasn't using her full strength at all.

"This is highly suspicious."

"And the fact that he's already a certified hero by the Hero Association means that information within the Hero Association has very likely been leaked..."

"Further investigation is necessary..."

Metal Knight muttered to himself, then turned to look behind him, where a robot, all black and resembling a samurai, stood.

G5 God of Machines.

However, investigating the monster organization is only one of Metal Knight's current tasks.

He has another goal.

Metal Knight's fingers flew across the keyboard, and he immediately pulled up the surveillance footage from J City that had just been shown.

That's a scene of Genos fighting the Deep Sea King.

"The technology behind this incineration cannon... is worth studying carefully. It would be wonderful to obtain it..."

Metal Knight said quietly.

"The power of the cyborgs should not be underestimated."

"This movement technique is unusually agile; is it using combat AI?"

"Moreover, he seems to be King's disciple, so he's worth studying."

......

Inside the Hero Association, Genos had returned to the association's base and reported the details of what had happened in Z-City to Sitch.

"Well done, you cyborg!"

Sicchi nodded to Genos with a clear smile on his face.

When he learned that even Sexy Prisoner had been defeated, Sitch's heart jumped into his throat, because it was almost unheard of for an S-class hero to be defeated.

At first, the Hero Association thought the Deep Sea Clan were just insignificant characters, so they didn't contact powerful heroes like King and Tatsumaki. However, they never expected that Deep Sea King would have such great power, easily defeating Sexy Prisoner.

Fortunately, Genos successfully killed Deep Sea King, thus averting the crisis. Otherwise, Deep Sea King would have caused terrifying destruction before the Hero Association could send other heroes to the scene.

"This is not my achievement."

Genos immediately said,

"It's all thanks to Teacher King."

Genos then told Sitch about King controlling him during battle.

"So it was Mr. King who made this...?"

Sitch was somewhat surprised, never expecting that King could control Genos's actions.

"As expected of Mr. King..."

Meanwhile, Sitch was also wondering if King's control of Genos this time was because the other party had anticipated that the Deep Sea King's strength would exceed the Association's expectations.

King is indeed a man of great hidden talent.

It's wonderful that there's someone like King among humanity.

"Then I'll be leaving now."

Genos said slowly.

"Okay, okay, please convey my thanks to Mr. King for me."

Sitch said with a smile.

......

Before we knew it, it was already afternoon.

After taking control of Genos, Kusno left in shock, intending to go back and thoroughly study the data from the battle.

King and Fubuki had nothing else to do, so they went out for a hero activity.

After eliminating several monsters, King opened his system menu. The last time he shattered the meteorite, he had gained more than 80 million reputation points. Now, several days had passed since that day, and his reputation points should now exceed 95 million.

He then opened his system menu.

[Super God Skill System]

[Host]: king

[Reputation Value]: 100000134

[Current Skills]: Sin of Pride - Escanor Template, Divine Vision

"How come I have another hundred million reputation points?"

King was slightly puzzled as he watched his reputation points surge again. Normally, he would have around 99 million by now. But after thinking about it carefully, he guessed that Genos must have told others about his control over him.

Now that he has another 100 million points, King is naturally ready to draw his next skill.

"Extract."

King didn't hesitate much and immediately invested all his points into it.

At the same time, he was also speculating about the third skill he was about to acquire.

The Escanor template granted King immense power, while the God Vision refined his skills and gave him incredible speed.

However, these powers are not without flaws.

Escanor's power is limited by time, and if King were to break through this limit, he would have to burn his own life force.

While King's other ability, Divine Vision, allows him to copy and enhance the opponent's skills, it also causes damage to his own body.

Without the physical boost from the Escanor template during the day, King wouldn't be able to unleash any powerful moves.

It can be said that although King now has a certain fighting ability at night and can use a few ordinary punches copied from Saitama, which can easily defeat ordinary monsters, it is still not enough.

Therefore, King hopes to be able to draw the next powerful skill.

Ideally, it would be some kind of ability that allows me to regenerate or enhance my physique, so that I could use the illusionary vision technique without any restrictions.

It even makes it possible to enter the state of 'unrivaled in heaven and earth' outside of noon.

While King was pondering, the results of this skill draw were already in.

[Current Skill]: Recovery

[Source World]: Restoration Warlock

[Reply]: It restores the object to its original state, or changes its state. When used on other people, it can acquire their memories (if used to heal wounds, the user will feel an equal amount of pain).

Chapter 97: A Powerful Alliance! The Monster Association, the House of Evolution, and Metal Knight!

"A recovery skill?!"

King felt a surge of joy as he looked at the newest skill he had just acquired.

Isn't this the self-healing skill he's been longing for?

The original King was like a warrior in the game; although he had powerful attack power, he had no way to recover.

But now that I have this recovery skill, I don't have to worry about other problems anymore.

Most importantly, the skill description states that it is not simply about healing, but about restoring the body's condition.

In other words, King possesses it, allowing him to ignore the physical side effects and use the Divine Vision skill without restriction, even in the dead of night.

Moreover, this skill not only restores physical condition but can also change condition, which seems to allow for the development of many other skills.

Moreover, it can also peer into other people's memories and even modify them.

That's incredible skill, absolutely incredible skill!

Thinking of this, King couldn't help but smile slightly.

However, he also noticed the side effects of this skill. Even though it cost 100 million reputation points to obtain, it was not perfect. The Sin of Pride was time-limited, Divine Vision would put a strain on the body, and this skill would cause pain.

It seems to be just a feeling of pain, and it won't cause any harm to the body.

How painful can it be?

Never mind, I'll just do the experiment tonight.

......

As darkness fell, the light of the setting sun was gradually swallowed up by the horizon.

At this moment, Psykos was walking on the street. She planned to return to her secret base, 1,500 meters underground, and then use her superpowers to control the body of Gyoro Gyoro to manipulate the Monster Association and the House of Evolution.

The Deep Sea Clan she had originally chosen were wiped out by the remaining heroes after the Deep Sea King was killed, and they are no longer of any use to her.

"We need the help of other forces."

Sykes thought to himself, while glancing around to make sure he hadn't been discovered.

But she soon noticed a dark figure appearing behind her.

Sykes turned her head slightly and saw the person behind her clearly.

A robot with an eerie red light emanating from the center of its head, seemingly a camera serving as its eyes, was covered in armor resembling that of a samurai, reflecting a cold metallic gleam. A samurai sword hung at its waist, giving it an aura of menace.

Sykes frowned slightly. She didn't know the other party's identity, but he seemed to resemble the G4 Machine God who had attacked King earlier.

Are you a member of that Machine God organization?

Why did they come looking for me?

"who are you?"

Sykes' expression turned serious, and her gaze locked onto the other person.

"I am the organization's G5 machine god, here specifically to eliminate you!"
