The situation here is starkly different from the heavy casualties suffered by the S-Class heroes.
At this moment, Boros seems quite pleased.
Even though many of his own subordinates have also died, he appears utterly unconcerned.
In fact, Boros has been wandering the universe for a long time, but rarely encounters opponents who can exchange a few moves with him. He himself did not expect that this backward planet would harbor so many strong individuals.
Especially the middle-aged man with a unique style of boxing before him.
Although he is not a match for Boros, this opponent has indeed introduced him to some novel combat techniques.
After exchanging a few moves with this opponent, Boros starts to believe what the prophet said was true; indeed, there seems to be someone on this backward planet who can make him enjoy the battle to the fullest.
"Hahaha!"
Thinking of this, Boros can't help but burst out laughing and then blasts Bang away with a punch: "For pleasing me, I'll spare your life. Go find the strongest person on your planet."
As for the other side.
Bang hits the deck hard, tastes blood in his throat, and spits out a mouthful of blood. This monster has managed to forcibly break his Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist. Thinking of this, Bang looks at the alien creature before him: "Even the young me is no match for him, what kind of monster is this guy?"
"Bang... Old Master Bang!"
Child Emperor, seeing even Bang sent flying back, becomes even more anxious.
However, Fang Mo completely ignores him and decisively walks towards Boros.
Child Emperor doesn't know the true situation of Fang Mo. In his view, this priest must be skilled in healing divine arts, always talking about resurrection and such.
As for his combat ability... Although Fang Mo did indeed kill Groribas with a single slash, honestly, Groribas looked like a common soldier, and without truly fighting him, one couldn't know his strength.
Besides, even if the priest does have considerable combat abilities...
The alien creature on the other side is too terrifying; even the S-Class hero ranked third, Silver Fang, was severely injured, right?
You, a newcomer at the bottom of S-Class, even if you can defeat Dragon-level monsters, what good is it against this cosmic overlord? You're just throwing your life away. And the thought of this makes Child Emperor feel even worse; the opponent is literally risking his life to buy him time.
Thus, he desperately tries to find a way to save everyone.
But the more he thinks, the more anxious he becomes, until finally, his mind is filled with images of death and despair.
"Damn... Is it because my brain doesn't have enough sugar?"
Child Emperor is almost crying in frustration, grabbing his head and starting to talk to himself in despair: "I must think of a way, to contact the ground... How can I contact the ground? Should I hack into this spaceship's network, or find a way to retrieve the chips, but how to solve the signal jamming issue?"
Thinking of this, Child Emperor unconsciously recalls something Fang Mo said earlier.
"...Should I pray to the gods?"
Child Emperor glances at the communicator in his hand, perhaps really running low on brain sugar or just too nervous, he subconsciously feels like knocking on this device.
However, his knees are already bending when a large hand suddenly stops him.
"Ah?"
Child Emperor is stunned for a moment, somewhat incredulously looking up: "Old Master Bang? You..."
"If you pray, sincerity is all that is needed."
Although Bang appears somewhat weak, he seems stronger compared to Metal Bat and TankTop Master. He smiles at Child Emperor: "Anyway, don't be too pessimistic. Brother Fang Mo is very strong, he can handle it."
"Ah?"
Child Emperor is still stunned: "But even if he is strong..."
"Just do your job well." However, before Child Emperor could finish, Bang shakes his head and then points to somewhere not far away: "Leave the rest to him."
Hearing this from Bang.
Child Emperor subconsciously looks at Fang Mo.
And just then, he is stunned in place.
Because under his gaze, Fang Mo and Boros aren't fighting, but rather Fang Mo is simply pressing a hand on Boros's shoulder, as if persuading him.
And indeed, that's the case.
"Benefactor, to put down the butcher's knife is to become a Buddha instantly."
Not far away, Fang Mo, with one hand on Boros's left shoulder and a benevolent expression on his face, speaks: "You have committed too many killings; you will go to hell in the future. Coincidentally, I have an automatic life-releasing merit-brushing machine here, would you like to learn more about it?"
"?"
Boros looks at Fang Mo curiously.
Honestly, he doesn't understand Fang Mo's behavior. He just eliminated several of his companions, and yet this person doesn't seem to fear him at all?
Shaking his head, Boros decides not to think too much about it and is ready to just punch him to end it quickly.
However, just as he's about to throw his punch, he realizes something is wrong. The hand pressed on his shoulder feels like an immense mountain, utterly immobilizing him.
"...Hmm?"
After noticing this, Boros looks at Fang Mo in surprise: "Your strength... is quite formidable, isn't it? I didn't expect that. Are you perhaps the strongest among these invaders?"
"I am but an earthly representative of the original god, wielding divine authority." Fang Mo, maintaining his smile, improvises: "So, it's not me who is powerful, but the god, the original god who instills me with this confidence."
"Genshin god? What's that?"
Boros inquires: "So, is this Genshin the strongest on this planet?"
"You're talking about the Circle of Reason; that's a different god," Fang Mo replies with a smile. "Although I'd love to enlighten you about these matters... there's a little boy watching me over there, and as a priest, I must not let the boy down. So, could you give me the courtesy of standing still?"
"What kind of nonsense is this."
Boros, being an alien, doesn't understand these perplexing matters and frankly, he's too lazy to listen. At this moment, he tries to forcibly break free from Fang Mo's grip: "I came here not to listen to your stories. I want to fight with the strongest man on this planet!"
As he says this.
Boros suddenly kicks towards Fang Mo.
"Priest! Be careful!"
Child Emperor, being too far to hear their exchange, only sees Boros suddenly lashing out, thinking Fang Mo would be instantly obliterated, and cries out in dismay.
To his surprise.
Just as Boros's leg is about to hit Fang Mo, everything blurs for a moment, and then a white spherical shockwave bursts forth, a purple-blue figure instantly shoots out like a streak of light, crashing heavily into the metal wall behind and bursting through it, flying off to who knows where.
And just as this flash of lightning scene concludes.
Child Emperor can barely hear a loud "boom," followed by a terrible wind pressure that blows him away, forcibly pinning him to the deck.
Within this gale, Child Emperor squints and tries to look forward, but instead of the cosmic overlord Boros, he sees the priest dressed in black clerical attire, still with a kind smile and maintaining his punching posture, with a wisp of blue smoke slowly rising from his fist.
"What... What is this!?"
Seeing this, Child Emperor's face instantly shows a shocked expression.
"See?"
And at that moment, a voice from Bang quietly resounds beside him, Child Emperor turns his head and sees that Bang seems to have relaxed a bit: "Like him, a monster with strength comparable to a god... We have at least two of those in our Hero Association."
"What, there are more!?"
Child Emperor is clearly more astonished upon hearing this.
Before he can ask anything more, suddenly a burst of laughter echoes from afar.
"Hahahahaha!!!"
From the crater bursts a beam of golden light, followed by an explosion, and an excited Boros slowly walks out.
His condition is not good.
Originally, Boros wore a splendid set of golden armor with a cape behind him.
But now, after taking a punch from Fang Mo, this armor is all cracked, slowly shattering and peeling away as Boros advances, revealing his cyan-blue skin beneath.
"Just one hit made that monster injured?" Seeing Boros's armor shattered, Child Emperor feels a bit relieved: "Good, then..."
But before Child Emperor can fully relax, Boros immediately speaks again, raising his concerns anew.
"...You don't think this armor was my protection, do you?"
Boros, with an excited look, stares at Fang Mo and says, "My power is so immense that I have no equals, so to enjoy the thrill of battle, I had to wear this device that limits my strength. Now that it's broken, we can finally have a proper fight."
"The thrill of battle, huh?"
Fang Mo hears this, subconsciously stroking his chin: "Hmm... now that you mention it, it's indeed been a long time since I had a serious fight."
Indeed, not just Boros, it seems Fang Mo hasn't had a serious fight in a long time either.
Crafting weapons from Tinker' Construct is one thing; after all, Fang Mo figured those out bit by bit on his own, but this power of dimension is just too overpowered. Theoretically, with serious research, not just planets, but even the fabric of the universe could gradually be consumed, which is like having a cheat power, right?
Originally, it had been said that Fang Mo is one of those combat-type players.
After all, unlike Xiao Yao and the Industrialists, he can't get dopamine just from working at a workbench.
"Hmm... alright then."
Thinking of this, Fang Mo makes a spur-of-the-moment decision, claps his hands and says: "Since that's the case, then I won't cheat this time. Let's have a real fight."
"Hahaha, come on then."
Boros, not understanding all this, is merely excited and rushes towards Fang Mo: "I can't wait to have a fight with the strongest man on this planet! Make me thrilled! Meteor Burst!"
And with Boros's shout.
His body bursts into intense white light, his body color changing from blue-black to white, continuously expelling energy.
With the reactionary force of this energy expulsion, Boros's speed increases another level, moving towards Fang Mo like a beam of light, while Fang Mo also prepares to meet him, raising his cleaver ready to explode this guy with one slice.
However, just as the battle is about to begin.
The deck not far in front of Fang Mo unexpectedly bulges.
Then, with a bang, a bald head suddenly pops up from below; obviously, it's Saitama, who even seems amused upon seeing Fang Mo: "Ah, finally found you..."
"Dammit, get out of the way!"
Fang Mo is startled, the timing of this guy's arrival could not be more unexpected: "The other side hit the wrong button for a colorless move!"
"Ah?"
Saitama seems a bit puzzled, instinctively turns his head, and then Boros, still unstoppable, crashes into him.
Honestly, Boros can't stop himself now either.
Given that the Meteor Burst state also imposes a heavy burden on his body, the blow intended for Fang Mo has no choice but to be redirected to this guy.
If it had been a regular minion, Boros might not have bothered attacking him directly.
Just rushing past would have shredded the opponent with the wind pressure generated.
But perhaps because of the energy burst mode, Boros vaguely feels this man before him might be somewhat formidable; after all, he managed to headbutt open the spaceship's armor, and wind pressure certainly wouldn't tear him apart, but interrupting his enjoyment of the battle was a capital offense, so might as well just kick him to death.
Thus, under Fang Mo's watchful eye.
Boros's foot connects diagonally with Saitama's stomach.
Saitama hasn't even had a chance to speak, and his whole body is instantly kicked away.
The force of this kick alone, merely the aftermath, destroys the entire huge control room, the super alloy composition of the spaceship's deck is torn apart effortlessly.
Child Emperor quickly props up a nano-energy umbrella, protecting the heroes.
As for Saitama, he transforms into a blazing streak of light, piercing through the air, the deck, and even the atmosphere, continuing with undiminished momentum towards outer space, directly heading towards the direction of the moon with a heavy crash.
