Starting with one punch, I'll stop being human.

The three events happened almost simultaneously. King felt a gust of wind sweep by, and then he saw a bald man with a white cloak fluttering behind him placing the unconscious little girl on the ground, while another tall, strong, and handsome young man was tightly gripping the strange man's neck, making its face turn even more purple!

"what……?"

King paused for a moment before realizing what he meant: "Han Senjun!"

The moment they made contact, a system notification pop-up appeared in Han Sen's mind.

[The Eccentric Man: Vaccine Man]

[Disaster Level: Dragon (High)]

[Ability 1: "Apostle of Gaia (SSR)": An agent of Earth's will twisted by "God," whose body is directly composed of planetary energy and who possesses the authority to mobilize planetary energy.]

[Ability 2: "Divine Power - Purification (SSR)": A world-destroying power granted by the "Gods," a destructive force of light! It condenses the inexhaustible energy of the planet into a sphere of destructive light, possessing powerful penetrating and explosive effects.]

[Ability 3: "Earth Antibody (SSR)": Born as a weapon used by the Earth's will to eliminate viruses—human civilization—it can absorb atmospheric pollution and radiation energy to infinitely strengthen itself.]

[Ability 4: "Apostle Awakening (SSR)": Unleashes the power within to strengthen the body, awakening the original form of the Gaia Apostle. The body freely grows larger and expands, and combat power explodes, but the person will gradually lose their sanity due to hatred.]

A glint of light flashed in Han Sen's eyes.

Another powerful dragon rises!

The important thing is that, like "Homeless Emperor", he is still an officially recognized Dragon-level monster!

[Ding! Contact has been made with a replicable target, a "vaccine human"!]

[Successfully copied SSR-level abilities: "Apostle of Gaia" Lv1, "Supernatural Power - Purification" Lv1, "Earth Antibody" Lv1, "Apostle Awakening" Lv1!]

[Currently occupied capacity bits: 4/30.]

[Consuming 511000 Origin Points, "Apostle of Gaia" level increased! Lv1->Lv10 (MAX)!]

[Consuming 511000 Origin Points, "Divine Power Purification" level increased! Lv1->Lv10 (MAX)!]

[Consuming 511000 Origin Points, "Earth Antibody" level increased! Lv1->Lv10 (MAX)!]

[Consuming 511000 Origin Points, "Apostle Awakening" level increased! Lv1->Lv10 (MAX)!]

[Ding! Copy ability "Apostle of Gaia (SSR)"... Once it reaches max level, it will merge with the user and remove the ability slot from the user's inventory!]

[Currently occupied capacity bits: 0/30.]

In the blink of an eye, the dragon-level power was refined!

Similar to the giant brother's power, Hansen's body instinctively wanted to expand and revert to the original form of Gaia's apostle.

How could a mere Earth Apostle possibly shake Han Sen's frail human body?

He even had the leisure to greet the two heroes who were also present, saying, "What a coincidence, King! And Saitama too!"

In Han Sen's eyes, King's life force was almost the same as that of an ordinary C-level hero.

Even among ordinary people, this is considered to be at the pinnacle of achievement.

In this world, building muscle and strengthening willpower is indeed the fastest way to become stronger.

However, in the current battle, even A-level heroes are cannon fodder, and King's combat power is negligible.

Unless he can unleash the overwhelming power of a single person suppressing four dragons.

Upon seeing Han Sen, Saitama, with his powerful aura, stood up and grinned: "Yes, what a coincidence, Han Sen, we meet again."

"Let me introduce you to Saitama, a hero who became a hero out of interest."

Saitama grinned sheepishly: "Hello!"

"This is a hero who was born of luck, King."

King: "Oh... hello."

Han Sen introduced the two to each other and said with a smile, "Saitama, I remember you said you wanted to eat hot pot last time. There's no time like the present, let's do it today."

"It just so happens that I haven't had lunch yet."

"Hey... hot pot for lunch?"

Saitama scratched his head, looked up at the sky and thought, "I remember now, there's a supermarket in S City having a special sale this morning!"

"I'll go buy some discounted beef later, then we can have beef hot pot."

Han Sen, of course, didn't mind. He held the frantically struggling Flashy Piccolo in one hand and casually said to King beside him, "King, come along too. We'll go buy some ingredients and drinks later."

"Ah, okay..."

Chapter 169 The Beginning of the Hot Pot Group

"Ah? Okay..."

Faced with Han Sen's invitation, King inexplicably agreed.

Immediately, he felt an overwhelming urge to vent, and sweat poured down his forehead!

—The weirdo isn't dead yet! Should we be thinking about what to eat for lunch now?

—And...are you serious about going to S City to buy discounted beef?

—From City A to City S, including parts of City Y, the straight-line distance is at least several hundred kilometers. If I actually go there to buy it, will I even have time for lunch?!

At this moment, the "vaccine man" who was being held captive by Han Sen refused to stand for it!

"I am a vaccine-carrying being created because of humanity's continuous pollution of the environment! I was born of the will of the Earth!"

"Humans!! You pathogens that parasitize this earth, how dare you treat me like this... Ugh—!!!"

As he spoke, the vaccine man's body continued to swell, and grotesque spikes grew from his joints, sharp enough to pierce through steel plates!

However, the next second, Han Sen punched him on the head, and his tongue was almost bitten off in two!

Not only was the villain's entrance speech forcibly interrupted, but its ever-expanding size was also forcefully slapped back by a punch that made its soul tremble.

"Shut up, do you even have the right to speak?"

King: "..."

Saitama watched this scene with a smile, as if it were perfectly normal for a monster who had wrecked the city to be held in someone's hand like a chick.

King, on the other hand, is a bit like Bengbu.

Long time no see, Han Sen's style remains the same.

However, from his perspective as an ordinary person, he simply couldn't understand it...

"Now that everything's alright, I'll head to City S!"

Although the monster is not dead yet, Saitama is still quite confident in Han Sen's strength.

After all, he was the first person who could keep up with his normal running speed.

Han Sen, who was also holding the vaccine mannequin, casually asked, "No problem, where shall we meet later?"

"Come to my place. Although it's in the suburbs of Z City, it's still quite quiet."

The two agreed to meet in a while, but as soon as they finished speaking, King felt a blur before his eyes.

A powerful blast of air suddenly exploded around him, making him lose his footing and almost fall to the ground.

boom--! ! !

A dull thud arrived late, as if the sound was chasing after the receding figure.

King instinctively raised his hand to shield his face from the oncoming dust, and when he opened his eyes again, the bald, cloaked man had vanished without a trace.

Only a straight trail of dust, stretching to the horizon, remained on the dilapidated street, as if it had been ruthlessly plowed by an invisible giant plow.

King's mouth unconsciously opened into an "O" shape, and the three hideous scars on his face seemed to relax considerably due to shock.

What speed is that...?

A strange sense of familiarity welled up in my heart.

King felt like he'd seen this bald man somewhere before...

And not just once!

But I can't remember exactly where it is right now, only a strong sense of déjà vu remains.

"Ugh... Ugh... Damn humans! You're all viruses, I'm going to wipe you all out!!"

Just then, a weak yet indignant groan of pain pulled King back to reality.

The vaccine man, held aloft by Han Sen with one hand, was still writhing in defiance. His purple skin flickered with a destructive white light, as if he was gathering strength for a final, desperate fight.

"It's noisy."

Han Sen glanced down at it and frowned impatiently.

The hand holding the vaccine casually snapped shut with a crisp "snap".

The vaccine recipient's purplish-brown head, which was still gathering strength, suddenly tilted to the side and then slumped down as if it had lost all support.

Inside the vaccine-carrying human body, which King could not observe, the powerful body of the Dragon-level monster was torn apart, its bones shattered, and it only maintained its original shape by the force field that penetrated into it.

—Although it's completely shattered, at least it's still a whole corpse. If it's resurrected like this, its strength shouldn't be much less than before it died, right?

Han Sen thought to himself, "Although the 'Vaccine Man' has a low limit, his strength is not bad. Judging from his ability information, he is still an infinitely growing monster like Veigar or Nasus in LoL."

If it is allowed to continue growing, it may be able to reach a higher level of power.

Therefore, this guy had long been designated by Han Sen as one of his freakish subordinates, but he was the zombie version of the "New King's Awakening Light" after his resurrection.

This is why Han Sen acted before Saitama could. Once the bald guy threw a punch, forget about getting a whole corpse; he'd be lucky to even find a few pieces of relatively intact tissue!

[Ding! Defeat the Dragon-level monster "Vaccine Man" and gain 92,150 Origin Points!]

The notification for the arrival of Origin Points indicates that one second it was a terrifying disaster that destroyed a city, and the next second it was a roadside nobody being casually crushed.

King watched from the side, his eyelids twitching and his heart pounding uncontrollably.

The "Emperor Engine" started roaring again without him even realizing it.

Han Sen didn't care. How could a mere high-level monster like him possibly be a match for his "weak human body"?

He casually tossed the vaccine victim's corpse into the "imaginary realm" where no one could see it and stored it away, intending to awaken it when the time was right.

After doing all that, he turned around and gave King, who was staring blankly, a kind smile.

"Let's go, King, let's go buy some ingredients and drinks. After all, you can't visit someone's house empty-handed."

Han Sen stared intently at King, as if he were seeing the embodiment of "strong luck".

After this period of accumulation, the hardworking and dedicated army of cattle and horses... no, the clone army, has surpassed the limits of many of its abilities.

This means that a new round of capability integration can begin at any time!

Even if they hadn't met in City A, Han Sen had planned to visit City M in person sometime.

After all, it's time to nurture a king for a thousand days and use him for a short while.

"Ah...oh, okay."

King felt a chill run down his spine under Han Sen's gaze, and nodded subconsciously before remembering what had happened.

—Wait a minute, Han Sen-kun, when you moved into my house back then, you weren't this polite...?

Inside the largest chain supermarket in City A, this was one of the few places that quickly resumed business after the disaster alert was lifted.

Hansen pushed a shopping cart while King followed beside him; the unusual pair attracted a lot of attention.

One is a 1.95-meter-tall clothes hanger with a handsome face comparable to a top star, and a calm demeanor with a touch of playfulness.

The other one, though slightly shorter, was still over 1.8 meters tall, with a robust physique. His blond, slicked-back hair and the three scars on his face gave him a powerful aura that kept strangers at bay.

Chapter 170 Hot Pot (Part 1)

As Han Sen and King walked under the bright lights of the fresh produce section, the surrounding customers seemed to be drawn by an invisible magnetic field, turning their heads to look and whispering in hushed tones.

Several young girls pushing shopping carts, in particular, had slightly flushed cheeks and their eyes sparkled with barely suppressed excitement and amazement.

"Look, look! That blond guy with the slicked-back hair and the scar on his face... there's no mistake!"

"It's him! It's King, the seventh-ranked S-class hero of the Hero Association!"

"My God, it really is him! His aura is so strong! Is this the oppressive presence of the strongest man on earth?"
