On the other side of Z City, a fierce battle could be seen taking place in the distance. Occasionally, red flames would soar into the sky, and one could also clearly hear the sounds of buildings crumbling and being destroyed due to the fighting.
*clanks
*hissing
A loud explosion could also be heard in the background, along with the sound of metal crashing against metal.
The fight turns out to be between a monster from the House of Evolution known as Armored Gorilla and Genos, a lone cyborg who recently wiped out a large swarm of mosquitoes in this city the other days.
It seemed as though they were immersed in a fierce battle, with Genos delivering dazzling attacks while Armored Gorilla could easily fend them off.
The fact that Genos seemed to have many questions about the identity of Armored Gorilla in front of him made their conversation all the more interesting to listen to.
"Who are you really? Why are you making a mess in this city?" When Genos asked Armored Gorilla in the pauses between his attacks, Genos' high-pressure fire attacks would be blocked by both of the robotic arms that Armored Gorilla possessed.
"I am Armored Gorilla, the second strongest creation in the House of Evolution," replied Armored Gorilla in a robotic voice that was slightly stiff and unnatural sounding.
Then, Genos jumped back, trying to keep his distance while analyzing the situation. With his brows furrowed, he asked once more:
"Have you been responsible for similar havoc in other cities in the past?"
"I have no obligation to tell you."
After that, Armored Gorilla took the initiative to jump high forward and smash its large robotic hand towards Genos. However, Genos' cyborg body, which had high technology, could easily dodge the attack.
Their fight then continued for a considerable amount of time, and even though there were several C and B-class heroes who were there to watch from the side, these heroes knew that this monster, Armored Gorilla was extremely powerful, and they weren't able to match it. Eventually.
Because this blonde cyborg wasn't a Hero, these Heroes were a little moved and amazed by him, which caused them to be very surprised by the abilities shown by Genos.
One of the class B heroes there said, "I'm sure this cyborg can be on par with class A heroes," and his eyes shone with excitement as he looked at Genos.
"Really?... but I also agree, though, seeing how he fought with this monster. This cyborg certainly can't be underestimated."
He was surrounded by other heroes of Class C and B, all of whom were in agreement, and one of them started pulling out his phone to record what was happening.
"Who exactly is this blonde cyborg?"
"I've never seen it either, why did such a strong person suddenly appear?"
These heroes look excited as they conversed with Genos as the primary topic of conversation. "But it seems like he will be known by many people after this battle," one of the heroes said.
-
Not very far away from the location where Genos and Armored Gorilla fought, a silhouette of a tall and large monster was seen strolling nonchalantly down the middle of the road leading somewhere.
The blood that was splattered in the streets behind this mysterious monster revealed sickening horror, and in addition to this, countless corpses lay sprawled with hideous appearances.
The citizens of this city of Z who had the misfortune to come face to face with this monster were the ones whose bodies were found among the corpses, although some of the corpses were also those of the Heroes of the Association.
Someone from the group who had just intervened in the path of the unknown monster yelled, "Wait, monsters! We will stop you here and now!"
"What else is this? Do you humans never give up even though you know you will only die... hahahaha..." This monster sneered, accompanied by thunderous laughter.
This newly arrived group turned out to be the Heroes of the Association, but one could tell from the pale and the look of insecurity on their faces that they did not have high rankings.
The Class B Hero shouted as if trying to strengthen his resolve, "We don't care. I am a Class B Hero, and my two friends are also Class C Heroes. The three of us will stop you now,"
"Very well then, I, Beast King, will take great pleasure in tearing your bodies to pieces."
It turns out that this monster is Beast King, which is one of the creations of the House of Evolution. Beast King is very intimidating due to its tall, muscular appearance as well as its lion-like appearance.
The group of three Heroes moved quickly to take their respective positions in front, to the right, and to the left of Beast King. However, before the Heroes could launch their attack, Beast King had already moved in front of one of these C-class Heroes, and while grinning widely, it quickly and easily swung its claws and tore the Hero's body into several pieces.
"No! No way, harrrg, "yelled the lone C-class Hero who was still alive as he ran forward and attempted to swing his weapon like a toy at Beast King.
When the weapon struck the back of Beast King, however, it instantly shattered and split into two pieces. Then, when Beast King turned around, he clumsily swung his claws once more and easily took out the remaining C-class Hero.
"They didn't tell me that you are this strong... don't... I will die... no... I have to run away..." The leader, this class B Hero, then slowly retreated while maintaining a fearful expression on his face.
"Listen up, if you're this weak you don't need to come up loud and confidently introduce yourself, it'll only make you look like Idiots."
