The detailed account of Bai Ye and Tatsumaki's fierce battle was cut by 100,000 words.
Online, the news of 34 A-Class and above high-ranking heroes being placed on the wanted list and then dying yesterday instantly caused a huge storm.
Since the Hero Association was established, even though Monsters had been appearing constantly, and with increasing frequency, the total number of hero deaths had not exceeded 10.
And there had been minimal losses among A-Class and above heroes. Aside from those who retired voluntarily or due to injuries, the only one reported dead was Prisoner.
But in a single day, 34 high-ranking heroes died collectively, which naturally caused shock throughout society.
In response to the outside world's questions, the Hero Association's response was very simple: "These heroes on the list were undercover agents planted by the Monster Association!"
Subsequently, the Hero Association released information about the Monster Association.
The so-called Monster Association's goal was to eliminate the Hero Association and then rule the entire Earth.
There were about twenty Monsters at Demon Level or above that required S-Class Heroes to defeat.
This news quickly overshadowed the Hero's death, and even those S-Class Heroes were shocked. It turned out that there was such a large force hidden in the shadows.
As these people inquired with the Hero Association, they received another piece of news. It turned out that this information came from S-Class Hero King.
And the Association announced to the public that in order to obtain this intelligence, King was besieged by multiple Monsters. Although he survived, he had already lost his combat ability.
At the entrance of the Hero Association headquarters the next morning, King, with his Emperor Engine activated, nervously stared at the staff in front of him.
He was currently preparing to receive the judgment of fate from the staff.
A staff member in a black suit spoke in a serious tone, "It is with regret that we inform you, Mr. King, that because you do not meet the requirements of the Hero Association, your hero status will be officially revoked starting today."
"As for the resources you previously obtained from the Association, the Association will not take them back. We will also announce to the public that you are unable to perform hero work due to severe injuries sustained during the battle with the Monster Association. We hope you can cooperate."
The staff member couldn't help but sigh.
After Bai Ye's reforms to the Hero Association, the emphasis on strength became even greater. Without a certain level of power, no matter how many missions one completed, they couldn't reach a higher rank.
And when leveling up, every active hero had to undergo a physical test witnessed by multiple judges to confirm their suitability for the next stage of hero work, with at least one test conducted each year.
However, after the recent test, it turned out that the strongest hero, King, rumored by the outside world, was merely a physically weak, ordinary person without any superpowers.
The so-called Emperor Engine was just a slightly faster heartbeat, without any special features… This was simply a huge scandal.
The higher-ups of the Association were collectively devastated upon discovering this. After a meeting and discussion, they decided to cover up the matter as much as possible, which led to the current situation.
"I understand. I've been wanting to explain this for years, but either there was no opportunity, or you wouldn't believe me. Now, I can finally relax."
Hearing that he didn't have to pay, King's heartbeat gradually calmed, and he felt relieved.
The staff member gave King a disappointed look and then said nothing more, turning to walk into the Hero Association.
Watching the other person's back as they entered the association, King sighed softly, then felt a hand on his shoulder.
A concerned voice sounded in his ear: "Mr. King, are you alright? The news said you were ambushed by the Monster Association and completely lost your fighting ability."
King turned his head and found Atomic Samurai was placing his hand on his shoulder, observing him.
He hurriedly explained, "It's okay, it's just because I overused my abilities, and I can't recover them anymore. I can only be an ordinary person from now on."
"That's such a pity," Atomic Samurai sighed after getting the answer. "What do you plan to do next? Do you need my help?"
"It's okay, even without superpowers, I'm a gaming expert. I can maintain my life by just clearing games."
King said confidently, then asked, "But Mr. Atomic Samurai, why did you suddenly come to the Hero Association?"
"Of course, it's because of the information about the Monster Association that you risked your life to bring out." Bang, his body wrapped in bandages with multiple fractured bones, leaned on his cane and stepped forward. "Most of the S-Class and above heroes have rushed here now, preparing to deal with the threat of the Monster Association."
Hearing Bang say this, a bead of cold sweat immediately ran down King's forehead, and he gave a dry laugh. "So... so that's how it is."
After a simple exchange of pleasantries with King, the two of them came to the meeting room. Several heroes were already waiting there, and among them, Bang was the first to notice Bai Ye's figure.
Bai Ye was currently leaning back in his chair with a relaxed expression. After seeing Bang enter, he raised his eyes slightly, glanced at him, and then ignored him.
As for Tatsumaki, she was sitting on the table opposite Bai Ye, yawning from time to time, looking somewhat lacking in energy.
"Are you Mr. Kexing Ren?"
At this moment, a man whose body was mostly modified with machinery came in from outside. Seeing Bai Ye, he said seriously, "I am Genos, Saitama-sensei's disciple. Please take care of me in the future."
"Oh, Bai Ye, you're here too." A bald man popped up behind Genos. "How about that invitation for a duel before?"
"No problem, I've given it some serious thought. We'll have our official match in a month. I'll let you know when the time comes." Bai Ye said. Saitama's eyes immediately lit up.
He had previously felt that Bai Ye had the same physique as him. Could he finally fight him head-on in a month?
After waiting another half an hour, as the S-Class Heroes arrived one after another, a Hero Association executive walked in.
After surveying the room, he sighed, "It seems Blast still hasn't arrived. Let's get straight to the point."
"Everyone here should have heard that the information regarding the Monster Association has been confirmed to be true. To deal with this impending threat, we must prepare in advance."
The executive said seriously, "So we are preparing to gather and subdue the monsters. According to the information provided, the Monster Association's lair is located underground in Z-City."
"To prevent the disaster from escalating, we should strike within a day, before they can react, and eliminate all enemies."
At this moment, Child Emperor raised his hand and questioned, "Wait, isn't this a bit too urgent? We haven't even prepared yet."
The other heroes at the scene had various expressions on their faces. They hadn't expected the time to be so tight. They hadn't even reached their optimal state yet, and they were already going to face a Monster siege?
