"The final member of the Organization has finally appeared."
King's lips curled up slightly, but after seeing who arrived, he couldn't smile anymore.
A silver-white mecha, covered from head to toe in mechanical arms, looking just like a tentacle monster.
Mirror, Dragon-level!
King's expression turned solemn. He hadn't expected the last member to be Dragon-level.
"You can't even deal with a mere B-Class Hero, truly a bunch of trash."
Swish... Swish...
As soon as Mirror finished speaking, countless blue punches attacked.
Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist!
The Talent Trial Card still had some time left, so King attacked without hesitation, but unfortunately, all his attacks were easily blocked.
King's pupils constricted slightly because he realized at that moment that Mirror seemed to be very familiar with the moves of the Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist.
"It's actually the Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist of the third-ranked S-Class Hero, Bang. It seems you are hiding many secrets."
The red light in Mirror's sensors flickered, as if it had become interested in King.
"Let me show you what real fist technique is."
King's attacks made no progress. At this moment, Mirror's several mechanical arms began to wave wildly.
"What is this?!"
In an instant, an overwhelming barrage of punches swept over, and King felt like he had been struck hundreds of times in an instant.
Boom... Boom...
The high-density attack battered King's body into a bloody mess, sending him flying backward.
King was beaten to the point where his consciousness was somewhat blurred, but under the effect of Undying Body, his body was recovering at high speed.
'No, if such attacks come a few more times, it will interrupt the accumulation of my Fighting Spirit. I must finish this quickly.'
Materialize!
Swish!
A white baseball bat appeared in King's hand. He would decide the outcome in one blow, unleashing his full Fighting Spirit.
"To recover so quickly... it seems necessary to capture you and take you back for careful study."
Mirror watched King, who had just been beaten to the brink of death, recover most of his health in an instant and continue to attack, and couldn't help but become increasingly interested in him.
"If you can do it, then give it a try!"
Bang... Bang...
King swung the baseball bat in his hand, each strike heavy and powerful.
Mirror realized at this moment that something was wrong. "The power is constantly increasing! Is this the move of the sixteenth-ranked S-Class Hero, Metal Bat?"
Dark Mask was a hero who had just been promoted to B-Class, yet he could successively use the moves and skills of two S-Class Heroes?
"If I can transform you into a cyborg and uncover your secrets, it will definitely raise the combat power of the Organization by a notch."
Mirror made up its mind. No matter the cost, it would capture King.
"Unfortunately, you won't have the chance!"
A smile appeared on the corner of King's mouth, and a terrifying Fighting Spirit erupted from his body.
"Fighting Spirit fully unleashed! Savage Tornado!"
A tornado rose from the ground, enveloping Mirror, and countless afterimages of the baseball bat madly bombarded its mechanical body.
Energy Blast!
Rumble!
The explosion crushed the tornado, but Mirror didn't have it easy either. Half of its mechanical body was blasted to pieces.
"Damn it, is it still not enough?"
Feeling the Fighting Spirit gradually fading from his body and the sense of weakness surging up, King couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Dangerous, cannot be left alive!"
The red light in Mirror's sensors flickered, its remaining mechanical arms slowly raised, and several energy balls quickly gathered.
"Oh no, I must block this move!"
A feeling of extreme danger emerged, this was something King had never experienced before.
Ever since he possessed Undying Body, he basically wouldn't deliberately dodge attacks, especially now that his Fighting Spirit could also accumulate when taking damage, so he became even more reckless.
However, possessing Undying Body did not mean he would never die. If the opponent's attack was too powerful, such as Saitama's attack, he would absolutely be unable to recover.
Materialize!
Swish... Swish...
Several energy balls containing terrifying power poured down. At the last moment, King materialized his weapon into a shield to block in front of him.
Boom... Boom...
The violent explosion could be clearly heard from kilometers away. The surrounding area was razed to the ground, leaving only a huge pit.
"It seems that future collection work will have to be restarted. I didn't expect there to be such a deeply hidden guy in the Hero Association."
"Forget it, it's just a base, it can be rebuilt at any time."
Mirror looked at the scorched earth in front of it, pondered for a moment, and then dragged its broken body away.
—
Half a day later, a pitch-black figure crawled out from underground.
King immediately took deep breaths of fresh air. "Hoo..."
"That was close, I almost died."
At the last moment, the shield couldn't block the bombardment of the energy balls, and he was submerged. Fortunately, he had a sudden inspiration and dug desperately toward the ground, which saved his life.
"This trip was a huge loss." King looked at his empty hands, wanting to cry but having no tears.
The Functional Weapon and Battle Suit he had just obtained were all destroyed, it would take a whole week before he could use them again. Without the support of equipment, his strength dropped from Low Dragon-level to High Demon-level.
Fortunately, the missions were settled separately, and he still obtained the Functional Weapon and three Talent Trial Cards.
"Both are Dragon-level, yet the gap is actually so big." King was still terrified.
Based on Mirror's strength, it should be able to easily kill the Ancient King, who was also Dragon-level.
"Is this the learning ability of machines? These guys are terrifying."
Whenever King thought about robots constantly learning the attack moves and techniques of S-Class Heroes, he couldn't help but shudder.
"Forget it, let's go back first."
—
M-City.
After trekking over mountains and through rivers and hiding here and there, a nearly naked King finally returned home.
This battle had undoubtedly destroyed all his personal belongings. Helpless, he had to buy a new phone and replace his SIM card, and immediately received a call from the Hero Association headquarters on the phone belonging to Dark Mask.
"What? Go to the Hero Association headquarters to take on guard duty?"
King was slightly stunned.
He didn't understand what kind of trouble the Hero Association was trying to stir up all of a sudden.
Maria explained patiently, "Yes, this time it is a mobilization plan initiated by Minister Sitch, mainly facing some criminals, so heroes are needed on-site to deter them."
King understood. 'It seems to be to cope with the speculation that Earth is about to perish, as proposed by the great prophet Shibabawa before her death, going so far as to mobilize all criminals to overcome the difficulties together. Since that's the case, that guy must be on the scene too.'
After figuring it out, King agreed without hesitation.
'We will meet soon. Hero Hunter, Garou.'
