The two clones exchanged glances, and Plague Knight Flash Piccolo boldly and righteously spoke first, "What are you looking at? As a Namekian parody, I'm already very handsome; the only problem to solve is the exhibitionism!"
Death Knight Arthas: "..."
His mouth twitched, and he gave his colleague a look that implied 'figure it out yourself,' "Stop talking nonsense, transform for me!"
"Transform, then!"
As they spoke, the clone drivers hidden within the two Dragon-level Weirdos simultaneously activated their transformation abilities, such as Cell Mimicry and Black Light Battle Suit.
Flash Piccolo's muscle lines became even more defined, his original purple skin rapidly turning a deep, dark green, with bright red outlines and horizontal muscle Texture appearing on his calves, arms, and other muscle groups.
The Blacklight material spreading over his body transformed into a classic purple Namekian traditional attire, with a white cape behind his shoulder pads soaring high, instantly achieving a four-hundred percent restoration!
On the other side, the more rugged-looking Grudge Overtime Ghost also changed his appearance.
His slightly bloated, massive body rapidly contracted and solidified, transforming into a tall, stern man with silver hair draped over his shoulders.
His tattered work clothes and hard hat, under the flowing transformation of the Blacklight material, became a set of skeletal heavy armor shrouded in black death mist! In his hands, a bizarre-looking greatsword radiating an icy chill materialized, with countless faces of vengeful spirits faintly visible on its blade, as if countless roars and howls could be heard from within.
Anyone who saw this sword for the first time would feel that it was very sorrowful.
After the two Dragon-level Monsters completed their transformation, Han Sen had them strike a few poses, confirmed that there were no errors in the details, and immediately called for Great Eyes, who was organizing data in the adjacent palace.
At this moment, Great Eyes' gaze was still a bit scattered, and his mental energy fluctuations were intermittent, like a broken signal.
Han Sen expressed his understanding of this.
Presumably, his main body was still dizzy from protein overload due to overeating.
It's all for the Monster King's service, nothing to be ashamed of!
After introducing the two newly joined Dragon-level Monsters to Great Eyes, Psykos, who was cleaning up the mess in the secret chamber, was filled with questions.
When Great Eyes, as a puppet body, synchronized the images of the two Apocalypse Knights via mental link, this proud, powerful psychic big sister was utterly stunned.
She stared blankly at the images appearing in her mind; the two figures exuded a powerful Dragon-level pressure above the level of Monster Association executives, causing her breath to hitch.
What Psykos found most incredible was their attitude towards Bug God.
Unconcealed humility and respect, absolute devotion from the depths of their souls...
Loyalty!!
"This, it's only been a few days! Where did Bug God recruit two more Dragon-level Monsters, and they're so loyal!"
"Could it be... he really is the born Monster King??"
A tumultuous wave surged within the big-breasted older sister's heart, and an unprecedented sense of powerlessness and fear gripped her heart.
She once again truly realized what a terrifying existence she was attempting to exploit!
Han Sen didn't have Psykos's little schemes; having dreams is a good thing, but as an object already in his hands, even if there was the shadow of a 'God' behind her, it was useless.
She couldn't turn the tables!
After copying the two SSR abilities of the resurrected Arthas, 'Grudge Proliferation' and 'Vengeful Corpse Control,' Han Sen casually scattered them like a free-range clone army, allowing them to independently seek out places of grudge and pollution for silent growth.
Vaccine Man's grand entrance and swift exit indicated that the main storyline of the One-Punch Man world had officially begun.
After him, powerful Monsters would appear one by one.
Han Sen's goal in this stage was to fuse and evolve all of his disparate abilities, firstly to form his own ability system, and secondly to pursue UR abilities beyond SSR!
As he pondered his path forward, a sharp glint flashed in Han Sen's eyes.
To grow quickly, he needed more powerful individuals as nourishment!
His gaze swept over the list of Monster Association executives in his mind, finally stopping on a name.
A sharp glint flashed in his burning eyes, and he suddenly remembered this matter—
So much time had passed, yet Centipede Elder, that old geezer, hadn't come to voluntarily pay respects to the new Monster King?
One should know that even the unconscious Evil Natural Water had made an appearance!
Although Han Sen hadn't actively summoned him, a new emperor brings new officials; to lack even this much self-awareness...
Centipede Elder, you have chosen death!
...
...
Outskirts of Z-City.
Underground, in the deepest part of the rock strata.
The large underground caverns here were intricate and vast, large enough to accommodate a small city.
A massive body, seemingly cast entirely from purple-black alloy, lay dormant in this deep darkness.
Even the small section of its body exposed was like an extended, thickened, ProMax version of a giant armored train.
Its enormous body, stretching for thousands of meters, completely disappeared into the deeper darkness of the cave, with no end in sight!
Countless ferocious segmented limbs were like sharply inverted spears, glinting with a cold and cruel metallic luster.
At the very front of its torso, on its forehead, a hideous face resembling an old human man had its eyes tightly closed, as if in an eternal slumber.
But even in slumber, every subtle breath of the giant insect caused the surrounding air to hum.
The ancient and vast pressure emanating from its body was enough to instantly shatter the courage and minds of any Demon-level Monster in this place.
Dragon-level Great Monster—
Centipede Elder!
Just then, an extremely faint change in airflow broke the deathly silence in the cave.
The strange, hideous, old man's face on Centipede Elder's head abruptly opened its eyes.
In the darkness deep within the tunnel, a jet-black streak of light was hurtling through at an unimaginable speed!
The streak of light came silently, yet it carried a terrifyingly powerful pressure!
In the blink of an eye, the black streak of light burst out of the narrow tunnel and suddenly stopped in the vast open space of the cave, transforming into a slender figure hovering with beating wings.
The newcomer was Han Sen.
The Black Light Battle Suit mimicked a pair of insect wings behind him, shimmering with a cold, metallic gleam.
Each beat of the thin, cicada-like wings left visible ripples in the air.
Compared to Centipede Elder, this true behemoth, Bug God's body was as tiny as a speck of dust at the foot of a mountain.
However, the solid, heavy kingly aura emanating from him caused Centipede Elder, a Dragon-level Weirdo, to instinctively feel a tremor from the depths of his soul.
On Centipede Elder's old man-like face, his muscles stiffly squeezed out an ugly smile, and he spoke first, his dull, strange voice echoing through the cave: "Bug God, I've long heard of your name."
"Hmm?"
Han Sen floated in the air, a hint of mockery flashing in his cold, indifferent scarlet eyes, sweeping over the exaggeratedly large giant centipede before him like a searchlight.
Within his sight, only he could see the ability information that then appeared.
