Han Sen was agile, grabbing the two like kittens, one in each hand.
"Ah! Put me down—!"
"Ah...!"
Compared to the terrifying, world-destroying power of the Primal Weirdo, even the resistance of top-tier psychics was no different from a kitten's scratch.
The next moment, the curtains on the French window automatically drew shut.
Outside, the sun was just right... Meanwhile, two doors down.
Saitama was sitting cross-legged on the floor, watching the morning news on TV with an expressionless face.
Suddenly, the floor beneath his feet began to shake slightly in rhythm, and the chandelier above his head swayed along, making a "creak, creak" sound.
"Hmm?" Saitama picked his nose, asking confusedly, "Genos, is it an earthquake?"
Genos, who was wearing a pink apron and making breakfast in the kitchen, had a stream of data flow across his electronic eyes.
He replied seriously, "Teacher, according to data from the Meteorological Agency and the Hero Association's disaster monitoring center, no signs of geological activity have been detected within a thousand-kilometer radius."
"The source of this tremor is unknown, the sensation is weak, but the frequency is extremely high, unlike a natural phenomenon."
"Do you need me to investigate the epicenter on-site? The epicenter seems to be not far from us."
"Ah, that's too much trouble..." Saitama's mouth twitched. He had only asked casually, and upon hearing the various technical terms from Genos, he felt a headache coming on. He quickly waved his hand, refusing, "Don't worry about it. The supermarket's egg sale is about to start soon, don't let it delay important matters!"
Genos naturally treated his teacher's command as an imperial edict, immediately nodding solemnly, "Yes, Teacher!"
"I'll go prepare the latest inventory list, promotional plans, and other detailed information for that supermarket right away!"
Saitama: "..."
He was completely speechless and quickly stopped the constantly over-enthusiastic cyborg young man: "Hey, wait, Genos... For this kind of thing, you just need to go participate!"
Genos looked enlightened, rapidly pulling out a notebook and pen, scribbling away, seemingly recording something.
Saitama: "..."
—No, according to Mr. Han Sen's explanation, what did he understand this time?
—Being a teacher doesn't seem that hard... Two and a half hours later.
Han Sen sent the two kittens back to City A for recuperation, while he returned to the living room of his apartment in City Z, leaning on the sofa, flipping through the latest work brief sent by Dr. Genus.
["Peach Garden Group" combat suit reverse engineering has yielded initial results.]
[The "Armored Gorilla" armor has begun its upgrade, expected to be completed within three days.]
[Due to a severe surplus of biomass raw materials at the base, the planned third-phase mass production equipment has entered the construction phase ahead of schedule, expected to be completed and operational within this week.]
Han Sen was already accustomed to Dr. Genus's extraordinary efficiency. While reading the brief, he reached for the coffee on the coffee table.
The next moment, his movements paused, his hand holding the coffee cup suspended in mid-air.
A strange malice, not directed at him personally but more like a vast malice against human society, attacked him from the distant ends of the sky in his perception.
He looked up, his gaze seeming to penetrate the ceiling and the thick atmosphere, looking towards the deep universe.
There, a massive energy fluctuation, powerful enough to distort space, was rushing straight towards Earth at a terrifying speed.
Han Sen turned off the holographic projection of the report from his wristband, took a sip of coffee, and stood up.
"Sure enough, what was destined to come has arrived."
Next door.
Inside Saitama's luxurious apartment.
"Teacher, the route map for today's special sale supermarket, peak crowd predictions, and the optimal purchasing plan have all been completed!"
Genos, wearing a pink house-husband apron, held a plate of his favorite fruit in one hand and a tablet computer in the other, reporting seriously to Saitama, who was sitting cross-legged on the carpet, engrossed in playing a game.
"According to data analysis, if we leave fifteen minutes early, we can rush in the moment the doors open, with a 98.7% chance of grabbing one of the 50 limited special-priced free-range eggs!"
"Oh, oh... As expected of Genos, so reliable!"
Saitama's mouth twitched, listening to Genos's almost excessively detailed battle plan.
At this moment, his eyes were glued to the TV screen, his hands frantically pressing the controller, and he praised indistinctly.
The pixelated character on the screen was fighting to the death with the final BOSS, and he was about to clear the game, so he had no time for anything else.
"Ah, so noisy... Is it a Monster again?"
Suddenly, an ear-splitting alarm blared across the sky outside the apartment without warning.
Saitama's button-pressing rhythm was instantly disrupted by a jolt, and the pixelated character he had been fighting with for a long time on the screen displayed "Game Over," causing him to instantly transform into his strong character style, his dead-fish eyes filled with black lines.
"They always pick the time when I'm about to clear the game, honestly..."
Almost simultaneously, the piercing alarm blared through every corner of City Z, plunging the city, which had just awakened from the morning, into panic.
WARNING
"Emergency evacuation alert! Emergency evacuation alert!"
"Disaster Level: Dragon! Repeat, Disaster Level: Dragon!"
"A giant meteor, over one kilometer in diameter, has appeared over City Z and is expected to fall in ten minutes! All citizens are requested to evacuate City Z immediately! This is not a drill! This is not a drill!"
"Repeat! Emergency evacuation warning..."
WARNING
"Teacher!" As the alarm sounded, Genos rushed out of the kitchen immediately, "The Association has sent an emergency summons, calling nearby S-Class Heroes to assemble at the City Z Hero Association branch! This meteor corresponds to a Dragon-level disaster, and the location is in the center of City Z!"
"According to emergency calculations, the meteor's impact point is precisely the central area of City Z."
"Once it hits, its power will be enough to completely wipe City Z and many surrounding cities off the map!"
"The meteor will fall within twenty-eight minutes, we must act immediately!"
As he spoke, he looked at Han Sen, who had come from next door, and asked respectfully, "Mr. Han Sen, would you like to go to the Hero Association branch with us?"
Han Sen rubbed his waist and waved his hand: "I won't go for now, you and your teacher can go."
He paused, then added in a calm tone: "When help is truly needed, I will be there."
"Yes!" Hearing this, Genos asked no further questions.
He knew Han Sen's strength was unfathomable, and he had his own way of doing things.
With his promise, Genos felt a bit more confident.
He nodded heavily, then turned and urged Saitama: "Teacher! We should set off! Hey..."
On the original seat, there was only a game controller on the tatami, while Saitama had already changed into his iconic yellow combat suit and red cape in a second.
"Got it, got it..."
Saitama clenched his fists, a grin spreading across his strong, bald face: "What are we waiting for, let's go!"
"Yes!"
The next second, the two had transformed into streaks of light, leaping from the apartment balcony and disappearing into the end of the uninhabited area in a blink of an eye.
