The Emperor Engine's God-like Skill System

Sitch asked respectfully, his voice trembling slightly.

"It seems like Metal Knight has a problem right now, doesn't it?"

King spoke slowly, his deep voice filled with the majesty of a king.

King had no liking for Metal Knight, especially since the latter was likely the one who had ruined his rare, leisurely afternoon.

"Whether he's innocent or not, why not just arrest him and question him?"

"If we don't solve the Metal Knight problem first, we won't be able to fight the Monster Association with peace of mind, and we may very well be attacked from behind."

"I think this is the safest option."

“I agree with Mr. King’s proposal.”

After King finished speaking, Sweet Mask immediately stood up and agreed.

"Since King has said so, let's do it that way. It just so happens that my thoughts are the same as King's, and I'm definitely not just following the crowd!"

Tornado, standing to the side, crossed her arms and said.

The other S-class heroes nodded in agreement, since it was King who made the suggestion, and no one else dared to object.

"Drive Knight, Child Emperor, do you know the location of Metal Knight himself?"

King turned and asked.

"I know the locations of several of his secret production lines."

Drive Knight immediately said that this was the result of his tireless investigation over the past few years.

"Let's get ready to leave now."

Just as King opened his mouth to speak, a huge roar suddenly erupted around the conference room, and then all the lights in the conference room went out, plunging everyone into darkness, where they couldn't see their own hands in front of their faces. Even the backup power source seemed to have failed.

"Damn it, the computer won't turn on either!"

Sitch fumbled around on the computer, pressing buttons frantically, but nothing happened.

At the same time, Sitch heard a series of booming sounds coming from outside the building.

Chapter 104: Utterly Defeated! The Power Metal Knight Was Proud Of!

The entire Hero Association building was constructed by Metal Knight, and the building has not a single window, resembling a pitch-black coffin.

Members of the Hero Association once asked Metal Knight about this issue, asking him why it was designed this way. He replied that it was to ensure the absolute safety of the headquarters building structure.

However, it seems that this is a lie.

This design served no purpose other than blocking the Hero Association members' view; Sitch and the others had no idea what was happening outside the building.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, Metal Knight has no intention of pretending at all; he is ready to directly break ties with the Hero Association.

All they heard was a series of roaring sounds, like countless airplanes flying around the building.

"It seems they're no longer going to pretend."

Despite his entirely mechanical face, Drive Knight let out a cold laugh.

He had been secretly investigating Metal Knight, concealing his identity, and knew that there might be eavesdropping devices in the Hero Association headquarters, so he never revealed his thoughts.

However, now that Genos has made things public, Drive Knight is prepared to go all out and take down Metal Knight.

For him, this was a rare opportunity; if he missed it, Metal Knight might escape.

What should we do now?

Sitch and the others turned their attention to King, waiting for him to make a decision.

......

Outside the Hero Association building, countless silver-white robots hovered around the building, like a swarm of bees about to launch an attack on the enemy.

Orange-yellow, even slightly bluish flames shot out from the end of the thrusters, scorching the air and producing a roar like that of a giant beast.

The morning sunlight streamed down on the robots, reflecting off their metallic surfaces.

They are all robots created by Metal Knight.

However, these robots are completely different from the robots that Metal Knight usually sends out; they are equipped with all sorts of dangerous weapons.

The people on the ground looked up, discussing amongst themselves and staring at the robots with curiosity, completely unaware of what was happening.

The only people who know that Metal Knight is a suspect are the S-class heroes and Sitch who were in the conference room.

At this moment, in Metal Knight's secret base, Metal Knight Bofoi was staring intently at the screen, his expression extremely serious.

He had just used the eavesdropping device to hear everything that Sitch and the other heroes were saying.

Metal Knight originally thought his plan was flawless, but he did not expect that even the G5 Machine God, which was only responsible for collecting data from a distance, would be discovered and destroyed by King. He also did not expect that Drive Knight was secretly investigating him, and he underestimated the technological capabilities of Dr. Kusno behind Genos.

During this time, Metal Knight focused all his attention on King, thus revealing many weaknesses.

However, Metal Knight had long been prepared for this day to come, and he did not focus entirely on hiding himself.

Even if Metal Knight didn't secretly cooperate with the Monster Association, his past acts of stealing information and experimenting with weapons without authorization were enough to make him a wanted criminal, and he would definitely not be able to stay in the Hero Association.

In reality, he was not a hero at all; he was more of an extreme egoist, which is why he eventually parted ways with Child Emperor. His extreme actions were all aimed at ensuring that his experiments would not be interfered with by the outside world and eliminating any threats to him.

Furthermore, Metal Knight is also very curious about the technology on Genos and the technicians behind him.

If possessing that level of technology is something we can't use for our own purposes, it's better to eliminate it.

According to Metal Knight's plan, he was preparing to investigate Genos's information, find Kuseno's whereabouts, steal his technology, and then eliminate him while the Monster Association and the Hero Association were at war.

For Metal Knight, both the Hero Association and the Monster Association are merely tools.

Now that his identity has been exposed, and Drive Knight has likely already located his secret base, Metal Knight knows he can no longer use his hero persona as a cover. So he prepares to leave his secret base immediately and escape to a more secluded place.

However, before escaping, Metal Knight still needed to process a large amount of experimental materials and transfer research data, which was a considerable undertaking for him and would take at least an hour. That's why he chose to remotely lock down the Hero Association headquarters. The headquarters building was built by Metal Knight himself, and he had made the necessary preparations long ago.

Furthermore, Metal Knight dispatched a large number of mechanical troops to delay the heroes' progress.

In the past, Metal Knight would have been confident enough to deal with the rest of the Hero Association, even the monstrous Tatsumaki.

Because Metal Knight had thoroughly understood the data and characteristics of each hero over the past few years, he knew how to deal with those guys.

Even against Tatsumaki, hailed as the Association's ultimate weapon, Metal Knight has a way to deal with her. He simply needs a device that can suppress the use of superpowers. While it may not be able to defeat Tatsumaki, it can at least slightly restrict her movements.

Moreover, he has been hiding his strength, and even the Hero Association doesn't know the true extent of Metal Knight's military power.

It's fair to say that if it were the previous Hero Association, Metal Knight would have been confident that he could fight them single-handedly.

If King weren't there.

King's strength is so bizarre and powerful that it cannot be measured by data. For Metal Knight, King is an immeasurable threat.

Any person or thing that he cannot control makes Bofoi feel uneasy. The reason he joined forces with the Monster Association is twofold: firstly, to infiltrate the monsters and collect their data, and secondly, to use them to eliminate King.

King is far too dangerous.

Moreover, King brought a guy named Saitama to the Hero Association. His physical test data exceeded the association's previous records by several times, and the strength he displayed was equally terrifying.

This gave Metal Knight a strong sense of crisis.

"Even if King is here, it will take him some time to break through my mechanical army. I should have left by then."

"Metal Knight Bofoy muttered to himself."

......

"How to do?"

In the conference room at the Hero Association headquarters, some heroes began to panic.

Genos opened his hand, and a faint flame shot out from his palm, providing a soft light that dispelled the darkness in the room.

Child Emperor and Drive Knight also escaped from the grid's equipment, which provided illumination.

The Vest-Top Venerable slammed his shoulder against the door with a loud thud, but the door remained unmoved.

"Damn it, is Metal Knight trying to lock us up here and buy us time?"

"Everything here was made by Metal Knight, using special materials that are extremely hard."

Sitch said with some concern, as he sensed that the rumbling outside the building was getting louder and louder.

"Moreover, this is an absolutely sealed environment; it won't be long before the oxygen runs out, and then..."

Just as Sitch was speaking, with a loud bang, the steel door was easily torn open by King as if it were a piece of paper.

"Child Emperor, can you regain control of headquarters?"

King turned and asked, "Since Metal Knight can remotely control the Hero Association, Child Emperor, as Metal Knight's former assistant, might have a way to take back control."

"Hmm, I should be able to give it a try."

Child Emperor nodded to King, then took out a small computer from his backpack and connected it to the computer at headquarters.

King then led the others out of the conference room. Looking around, although the association headquarters was pitch black due to the lack of lights and backup power, King, with his divine vision, could easily see everything in front of him.

The sudden power outage has thrown the Hero Association staff into chaos.

They were unaware that Metal Knight had betrayed them, because the Hero Association's communication devices were also cut off at the same time, preventing Sitch from reporting the matter to his superiors immediately.

"Mr. Sitch, could you please inform the other members that Metal Knight might be an enemy?"

"Ah."

Sitch nodded, and then immediately ran in a certain direction.

"Drive Knight, you know the base near Metal Knight, right?"

King asked.

"Ah."

Drive Knight nodded immediately.

"Then let's set off."

King said this, and then led the other heroes out of the association's gate.

Outside the door, a dense army of machines, like a swarm of ants, surrounded King and his companions.

They raised their arms, and their mechanical hands began to transform into machine gun barrels, aiming at King and the others.
