Blueprint of the Gods?
Tatsumaki was very shocked. As the strongest esper in the 'Hero Association,' her telekinetic powers were unparalleled. She didn't even flinch when facing dragon-level monsters. But now, something similar to a 'chip' had inexplicably invaded her mind.
"What's going on? What is this 'Blueprint of the Gods'? How did it get into my head?"
She panicked, holding her head with both hands as her body emitted a faint green light. The surrounding ruins and rocks floated due to her telekinetic energy.
"Ahem, Tatsumaki, what are you doing?" Bang Gu asked, standing nearby with his hands behind his back.
Tatsumaki stiffened for a moment, then crossed her arms arrogantly and snorted, "Hmph, nothing happened."
Metal Bat, standing nearby, picked his nose nonchalantly. "I heard about that 'blueprint.' It appeared in my head too. I thought it was just me, but it looks like everyone got it."
Atomic Samurai nodded, a hint of surprise on his face. "Oh, I took a look at it. It feels like something similar to a smartphone or computer interface. It seems like we've entered some kind of system."
Child Emperor's eyes widened with excitement. "I know what this is! This is like a cultivation ladder from myths and legends, and not just that, it's also a tree diagram!"
Metal Bat looked confused, his eyes wide. "A ladder? A tree diagram? What's that supposed to mean?"
Bang Gu smacked his waist and sighed. "Youngsters these days have no memory and can't understand what's popular among their generation."
Child Emperor continued, "I always thought myths and legends were just products of ancient people's ignorance, but I didn't expect them to be real. By the way, you'll understand once you open this 'blueprint.' It will automatically assign information."
The S-class heroes who stayed behind to help opened the 'Blueprint of the Gods' simultaneously. A large amount of information poured into their minds, and they instantly understood what it was and how to use it.
Atomic Samurai's eyes widened, the blade of grass in his mouth falling to the ground. "Whoa... It turns out this is that kind of thing! Those guys are gods who joined this 'divine system'! And there are so many levels!"
The One Punch world had no clear power system. There were superpowers, martial arts, swordsmanship, technological mutations, and genetic warriors. Now, anyone who obtained the information understood the power hierarchy within the Teyvat System.
More than half of the S-class heroes in the Hero Association had touched a corner of the essence of godhood. Even Blast, with his ability to manipulate space and gravity and deliver country-level destruction with a single punch, was close to the level of a true god. However, his power lacked divine qualities—he had no divine power, no divine body, no rules to govern.
While they possessed the power of gods, they were still classified as 'false gods.' They had the strength but lacked the attributes of a deity. The S-class heroes of the Hero Association who were now touching the essence of divinity included:
- Blast
- Tornado (Tatsumaki)
- Bang (Silver Fang)
- Atomic Samurai
- Child Emperor
- Zombieman
- Pig God
- Superalloy Darkshine
- Watchdog Man
- Flashy Flash
- Tanktop Master
- Metal Bat
In addition, there was Saitama, who truly possessed the power of a mid-level god.
Once the S-class heroes joined the 'Blueprint of the Gods,' they were immediately pulled into the 'divine group chat.'
King Douya: 'Oh, I knew you all would join us eventually.'
Atomic Samurai: 'So that's why your swordsmanship is so strong. You have an edge in this area. Thanks for letting me join.'
Bang: 'Oh, this is incredible. Even an old man like me can understand how to use this.'
Child Emperor: 'Any great scientists here? I'd love to discuss some science.'
Sumire Muroto: 'Oh, I am a scientist. I mainly study genetic engineering and human modification. Interested?'
Child Emperor: 'Genetic engineering? I'm into high-tech props. Let's exchange knowledge!'
Sumire Muroto: 'No problem. I'll start a scientist group.'
Xianyun: 'Science? My mechanical techniques could be considered a type of science. I'd like to join in and discuss it.'
Kagome: 'Liyue's science... I don't think it's scientific at all, but Fontaine and Snezhnaya have more advanced technology.'
Xianyun: 'Hmph, why wouldn't my mechanisms be considered scientific? Science is about studying things to gain knowledge, and applying natural laws with skill—that is science!'
Superalloy Darkshine: 'Wow, everyone is so powerful. If I made any of you angry, I'd definitely be dead meat.'
Xianyun: 'Nonsense! I don't go around killing people without a reason. Only evil spirits do that.'
Pig God: 'Are they all from parallel worlds? Is there any good food around here?'
Tatsumaki watched the entire chat silently, but she couldn't get a word in, and her self-esteem took a hit.
"I can't even get a word in!" she muttered to herself.
Meanwhile, Qin and others were being interviewed as they used their powers to assist the Hero Association in moving the massive spaceship out of City A. Though the power core of the ship had not been destroyed, it was still suspended mid-air. Despite being a massive object, only mid-level gods could move it with ease.
Most of the members of the divine group were being interviewed by media outlets from around the world, and the Hero Association was keen on inviting them as guests. Qin also told the media about their purpose for coming to this planet:
"We are here to eliminate all monsters and evildoers that are hostile towards humanity."
The moment this statement was made, excitement spread throughout humanity across the globe. However, this also got the attention of the 'weirdos.'
