Four heroes have gone missing: Hellish Blizzard, Iai Tetsuo, Okamai Katana, and Samurai Drill. Three of them were even ranked in the top five of A-rank.
If this news gets out, the Hero Association's reputation will be severely damaged!
Even more seriously, these individuals have very close ties with S-class heroes.
The fourth-ranked S-class hero, and Atomic Samurai's apprentice.
The second-ranked S-class hero, and the younger sister of Tornado the Terrifying.
Putting Atomic Samurai aside, Tornado is the Hero Association's signature hero. With the top hero "Blast" missing, she is the Hero Association's strongest ace!
Most of the Dragon-level monsters that have appeared in the news were handled by Tatsumaki.
The consequences of offending a tornado are predictable.
To put it bluntly, the Hero Association might lose half of its territory.
"What's going on with this House of Evolution? Didn't we already send people to wipe it out last time? How come there are still accomplices?"
"This accomplice seems to be the hero we dispatched last time..."
"What do you mean?"
"The report says that the hero 'Yang,' who has been stationed in D City for a long time, seems to have made the House of Evolution his new base."
"Miss Fubuki seems to have gone missing in an attempt to recruit him."
"A hero kidnapping another hero? That's the biggest joke I've heard all year!"
"Don't let the news get out yet!"
"Quickly send someone over to negotiate and see what he's up to."
"All the A-rank heroes have been wiped out. I'm afraid only sending out S-rank heroes can succeed..."
“S-class heroes all have their own missions, and some are even unwilling to leave their own cities. It is difficult to recruit them unless there is a particularly urgent situation.”
boom! ! !
The conference room door was violently kicked open.
The little girl in the green dress walked in with a cold expression.
"No need to trouble anyone else!"
"I'll go myself!"
.....................
House of Evolution.
Dr. Genos held a pile of documents, his face filled with helplessness.
"My lord, the bloodline factors of those three warriors are not special and have no research value."
"Let's let them go!"
"Those guys have huge appetites, almost as big as armored gorillas, and the food supply is dwindling rapidly."
The more Dr. Genos talked, the more he felt he was being ripped off.
Chu Yang seemed not to hear him, looking down at the experimental data and lost in thought.
The three warriors were clearly much stronger than ordinary people, so why didn't their genetic data change significantly?
On the contrary, Fubuki, who possesses superpowers, exhibits genetic traits similar to those of a monster.
"Samurai acquire their power through training, while Fubuki and Tatsumaki's superpowers are more like mutations?"
"Only through a mutation-like pathway can a gene express itself differently from others and become heritable..."
"Monsterization can indirectly change the upper limit of a race's limiter."
"This indirectly proves that the upper limit of biological limiters is set."
"Who is it? Is it a 'god'?"
"Probably not..."
"If it were that strong, it wouldn't be so afraid of Blast and Saitama."
"'God' is more like a monster who has broken his limiter. Because of some kind of flaw, he can't become stronger without limit like Saitama."
"We cannot rule out the possibility that it is an alien species; the appearance of the strange man is like some kind of 'infection'."
"If this art style continues, the world of One-Punch Man will become a Cthulhu universe." Chu Yang sighed, his mind feeling exhausted. He had too little information, and all his guesses seemed like nonsense.
"My lord, what I just said..."
Dr. Genos smiled awkwardly.
"Oh, you can let them go. There's no need to keep Fubuki here either; her superpowers have been mostly analyzed."
Chu Yang stood up, preparing to release them together with Dr. Genus.
"Can the materials provided by the Underground King be used to make a suit of armor?"
As they walked, Chu Yang suddenly asked.
"It's possible, but the strength isn't as high as expected. It's more than enough to deal with A-class heroes or demon-level monsters, but it would be a bit difficult to go any higher."
"Even if rare metals are added, it probably won't be able to withstand attacks from S-class heroes and Dragon-level monsters."
"To achieve the combat power you set, I'm afraid we'll still need Dragon-level monsters as material."
With the complete design drawings, Dr. Genus created an entry-level Iron Man suit in just one night.
"By the way, the artificial intelligence system I'm giving you also needs to be developed simultaneously. Those battle suits aren't just created for you alone."
Chu Yang solemnly reminded Dr. Genus that what he wanted to build was an iron army, enough to protect all the research results in the laboratory.
He didn't want to go out one day and come back to find his whole house robbed.
Secondly, relying solely on Sonic to collect experimental materials would be too inefficient.
With great power, everything becomes easier.
The three samurai and Fubuki were all locked in separate small rooms, and Fubuki's room also had a device to suppress psychic powers.
After having a large tube of blood drawn, Fubuki didn't have the strength to escape even after being locked in a regular room.
Chu Yang opened the door and saw Chui Xue holding a large bag of red dates, eating them with great relish.
Upon seeing Chu Yang, Chui Xue's face, which had finally regained a sliver of color, suddenly turned deathly pale.
"What do you want to do again?"
Fubuki's lips trembled, like a frightened fawn.
"After all, we didn't do anything weird to you, okay? Don't make a fuss, alright?"
"I'm here to remind you that you can leave now."
Chu Yang didn't even go into the room to say a word to Chuixue before heading straight to the next room.
Fubuki stared blankly as he left.
Dr. Genus, being a gentleman, whispered a reminder before leaving: "Miss Fubuki, if you don't leave soon, the master might change his mind."
Fubuki suddenly shivered, stood up and walked out of the room. After leaving the room, she said coldly, "Not only did you reject my offer, but you also treated me like this. Next time we meet, you'll be the ones who suffer."
Dr. Genos looked displeased. "If the adults had heard what you just said, you probably wouldn't be able to leave."
Fubuki's face turned pale, and she dared not continue her verbal sparring. She quickly buried her head and fled outside.
The remaining three samurai were similar; they didn't forget to engage in verbal sparring before leaving.
However, they weren't as lucky as Fubuki; they were beaten up by Chu Yang and walked out of the House of Evolution with bruises and swelling on their faces.
As soon as the three of them stepped outside, they saw that there was another figure next to Fubuki.
Same hair color, same clothes, similar appearance, the only difference is their body shape.
One was tall and voluptuous, the other looked like a primary school student.
"The second S-class hero, Hell's Tornado."
Iai Tetsuya stared in shock at the newcomer. Apart from the rarely seen Chief Hero Blast, she was the strongest hero on Earth.
"A ranking even higher than the teacher's..."
Qiu Wuda and Samurai Drill swallowed hard; their mouths were terribly dry.
"You escaped from the House of Evolution?"
The tornado slowly flew over everyone's heads, its eyes cold and frightening.
"No...we were released."
Iai Tetsuo stammered in response.
What did the people inside do to you?
Tornado glanced at Fubuki; the two didn't get along, and Fubuki didn't mention anything about what she had experienced inside.
"I just got a little beaten up and had some blood drawn..."
"Alright, that's enough. I'm not interested in hearing any more."
