Chapter 151: Launching Into Deep Space
The roar vibrating between heaven and earth grew louder, as if the very world was trembling in this moment.
The space ahead shattered instantly, forming an irregular, jagged tunnel. A tall, golden-haired figure stepped out slowly, wreathed in blood-red steam.
"While I was away, you feral dogs have certainly grown bold."
A deep, baritone voice echoed in everyone's ears. Looking at that massive back, the heroes—who had been drowning in despair just a moment ago—felt a surge of absolute security, as if they had just taken a dose of adrenaline.
It was as if King's mere presence was a guarantee of victory.
This was the true weight of the Strongest Man on Earth.
GOD, piloting Garou's body, leaned forward. The cosmic radiation radiating from him began to spread at an extreme speed, saturating the area for dozens of miles in an instant.
He intended to use this surge of cosmic radiation to directly finish off the already heavily injured S-Class heroes.
If He succeeded, it wouldn't matter if King arrived. GOD would have achieved His goal and would soon be able to harvest the core essence of this planet.
This planet possessed a unique "Fortune"—a cosmic energy capable of birthing warriors famous even in the deepest reaches of the universe.
Take these humans, for example—these so-called S-Class heroes. In any other part of the galaxy, it would take hundreds of planets to birth a single warrior of this caliber. Yet here, they appeared in clusters.
Furthermore, because of that rule-breaking Baldy's presence on this planet, the humans here all possessed the latent potential to break their Limiters. It was only a matter of the degree of their potential.
This was exactly why so many people took the wrong path when attempting to break their limiters; they broke through the genetic shackles but mutated into grotesque monsters instead. This was the origin of the "Mysterious Beings."
This planetary Fortune was tied to the lives of its inhabitants. To seize it, GOD had to first kill the powerful lifeforms who held the largest shares of that Fortune.
Namely, the S-Class heroes standing before Him.
As for King and the rule-breaking Baldy? Those two weren't even factored into the equation.
King was, at best, a "stowaway." Though GOD didn't know how he had slipped onto this planet, a stowaway was still a stowaway.
And the Baldy?
That guy is a literal cheat code!
Facing GOD's sudden offensive, King's eyes narrowed. The Aura within him exploded with full force, turning the sky and earth behind him into a deep, pulsing scarlet.
His majestic, vast Aura was like a blazing sun hanging high in the sky, colliding with GOD's cosmic radiation and forcibly suppressing it, pushing it back toward its source.
With every step King took forward, GOD's radiation collapsed another notch, driven back into his body by sheer atmospheric pressure.
Just then, Solar Sperm, who had been standing frozen to the side, finally moved.
He had been in a state of shock from the moment he saw King. Looking at that face, a primal terror from the depths of his soul had paralyzed his hands.
King had left an immense psychological scar on him back at the Monster Association—chasing him and the other Executives like dogs and casually slapping Monster King Orochi to death.
Solar Sperm looked down at his body, wreathed in eternal golden flames. Feeling the star-like power flowing within him, his fear began to evaporate.
Yes... what am I afraid of...?
What am I afraid of! I possess the power of a God now! The Lord Himself is standing right beside me! Why should I fear the 'Strongest Man on Earth'? He's just a human!
Why should I avoid his gaze?!
With that thought, Solar Sperm's eyes turned lethal. With speed akin to teleportation, he appeared in front of King. A punch capable of shattering half a planet smashed forward.
This punch would have sent even a God-tier gatekeeper like Blast to the hospital.
Yet, facing this strike, King didn't even change his expression. He simply reached out and extended a single finger.
Solar Sperm's fist collided with King's fingertip. The world-shaking explosion everyone expected never happened. There was only silence.
"What?!"
Solar Sperm's pupils shrank to pinpoints. Refusing to believe his eyes, he ramped up his energy output. The golden flames on his body flared violently, turning him into a blinding orb of light.
King's gaze remained unchanged, as if he wasn't resisting a God-level powerhouse, but merely stopping an insignificant gnat.
"If this is all the power you have... then there is no reason for you to remain alive."
As he spoke, King opened his palm, caught Solar Sperm's fist, and hoisted the colossal monster into the air before tossing him upward.
Solar Sperm, floating in mid-air, was dazed. With his power, he could easily maneuver in the sky, but his brain had stalled. He simply let gravity pull him down.
His mind had crashed.
Impossible... I've evolved so many times... I have the power of God... I am the Ultimate Lifeform among Ultimate Lifeforms...
SO WHY?! Why can't I even scratch him?! WHY?!
While Solar Sperm struggled to comprehend his failure, King raised his fist toward the sky. Vitality as deep as an abyss and vast as an ocean erupted.
A Crimson Dragon, thousands of meters long, roared into existence. it slammed viciously into Solar Sperm, nearly extinguishing the golden flames on his body.
Solar Sperm was pinned, unable to move, clamped firmly in the Crimson Dragon's jaws. He was forcibly launched through the atmosphere, hurtling toward the silent void of deep space.
King didn't intend to kill him directly. He chose to throw him into the cosmos instead.
In the depths of that starry sky, an even more terrifying opponent was waiting for Solar Sperm.
But for now, King had a more important opponent to deal with: the GOD standing right in front of him.
