The blockade was only effective against him. Metal Knight realized that staying here would mean certain death. But how could he hide with so many powerful heroes around? It seemed impossible.
He had no choice but to try his best to save himself. But as he prepared, the base's doors were blasted open. His actions had pushed the others too far, and this time, he was doomed.
"Damn it! They came so fast! But even if I was destined to die here, I'll take you all down with me!"
Metal Knight regretted not having a self-destruct mechanism in this hideout. If he had one, he would have taken everyone down with him, rather than facing this passive fate.
He dispatched his terrifying robots one by one. These robots are his only trump card here.
In terms of sheer numbers and power, they were equivalent to dozens of weaker S-Class heroes.
"Metal Knight, just surrender and come out peacefully!"
The entering heroes were displeased to see the robots. They had expected some resistance or denial from Metal Knight, but instead, he sent out his robots, essentially admitting his sin.
"Just a bunch of junk! Do you really think these can do anything against us?"
Tatsumaki was extremely disdainful and activated her esper power, but she soon discovered the problem, which is her esper power could not directly destroy these robots.
"You don't think that I've been idle in the Hero Association, don't you? I've analyzed the esper powers of your two sisters. My robots are equipped to counter them, so your powers are useless against us!"
Metal Knight couldn't help but sneer. He had collected plenty of data to deal with these heroes.
As Tatsumaki's powers can't be used, so did Blizzard's.
"Tatsumaki, your power is useless here. Leave the fight to us now. It's our turn to protect you!"
Superalloy Darkshine said. He couldn't believe that Tatsumaki's esper powers were ineffective against the robots and doubted that they were immune to physical attacks too.
"Haha, what a joke! Do you really think that's the end of it? You should regret not finding a way to neutralize my esper powers at their source. My abilities are not... so simple!"
Tatsumaki was enraged in an instant, feeling mocked. With a squeeze of her right hand, a terrifying esper power acted upon the ground. Instantly, over a hundred robots on the opposite side fell into a massive pit. The ground collapsed in an instant, and countless rubble fell into the gaping hole
Since they were already defending against psychic powers, why not use this method? Although the attack was somewhat weakened, Tatsumaki couldn't stand being underestimated. She directly dealt with all the robots.
"You're still as impulsive as ever. But unfortunately for you, this isn't your domain, so it's not very effective!" Child Emperor spoke up, these robots weren't as weak as they seemed, so what Tatsumaki had done won't deal with them.
"Boom boom boom..."
Sure enough, at the next moment, the group of robots rushed out, suspended directly in front of everyone.
"I knew that wouldn't work. There's no need for your reminder. Besides, my gift has already arrived!!"
With that said, a fiery-red meteorite descended from the sky. This was a meteorite that Tatsumaki had directly pulled down from space with her esper powers. The impact force of a meteorite was tremendous, and even Metal Knight's robots couldn't withstand it.
As the meteorite crashed down, the intense disturbance caused everyone to step back. This meteorite landed directly on the robots because Tatsumaki manipulated the surrounding soil and rocks, preventing the robots from escaping.
After the meteorite struck, about half of the robots were damaged, and nearly a third of them are destroyed.
"Is there anything else you want to say now?"
Tatsumaki looked at everyone with a smug expression, while Child Emperor and the others could only nod dumbly, as there was indeed nothing to say.
The power of this one meteorite was simply... invincible. As it turned these robots into a pile of scrap metal with ease.
"It's truly exhilarating! Since that's the case, I can't just stand by and watch!"
Bang, Atomic Warrior and others couldn't hold back any longer and went straight into action. Facing these people, Metal Knight's robots couldn't do anything.
Every attack, even missile strikes, was effortlessly deflected or dodged by Bang. While each of Bang's attacks caused some damage to the robots. At this rate, it wouldn't be long before each robot was scrapped within thirty seconds.
On the other hand, Atomic Samurai was even more direct. He used his ultimate move, Atomic Slash, to instantly turn these robots into a pile of rubble. Sometimes, using a sword was more advantageous than using fists.
"Aren't you going to join in?"
Metal Bat asked with doubt, wondering why King remained standing still, showing no intention of joining the fight.
"No, these guys aren't worth my time!"
Right now, King is so nervous that he might die of heart attack in the next moment. However, in order to maintain his image, he still speaks very calmly.
"As expected, then I will just go alone!"
After saying that, Metal Bat rushed directly into the battle group. As for King, he was almost crying.
'What is this going on with my life? Being asked to deal with a God-level monster alone is already crazy enough. Now, it is even worse, and I was sent to the battlefield here directly.'
Metal Knight's robots is not as weak as it look, so if King dares to go forward, he will be killed instantly, so he still doesn't dare to get close at all. Witnessing this, Asahi showed a look of understanding.
"Are fame and wealth more important to you than your life? Keep in mind, lies will eventually be exposed. Your luck won't always protect you!"
Asahi said incredulously, finding King quite peculiar.
"You…you know about me?"
King was a little surprised. At first, he had mentioned this kind of thing, but no one believed him, so he was also very helpless. With the subsequent temptation of money, he decisively took this position. Although he didn't possess such strength, it wasn't entirely problematic.
Little did he expect to be stuck in this role for three years.
