"Beep! Beep! Beep!"
A rapid and piercing exclusive ringtone interrupted Lin Mo and Saitama, who were playing a game.
Lin Mo answered the phone. On the other end, Jess's anxious voice immediately came through.
"Hello! Is this Mr. KING? Emergency! An abnormally huge monster has appeared in City D, and its destructive power is incredibly astonishing!"
"The Hero Association has already issued a 'Dragon' level disaster alert and is urgently notifying S-Class Heroes to confront it! The situation is extremely critical, so please arrive as soon as possible to provide support!"
A giant monster!?
Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat. At this time, could it be… the Giant Brother?
He quickly recalled the original plot in his mind. Calculating the time, it was indeed around this stage. But… a crucial problem was… Saitama was still being tormented by monsters in the beginner village here!
Lin Mo turned to look at Saitama, who was still grabbing his bald head in frustration over losing the game. He calmly replied into the phone, "I understand. I'll be there as soon as possible."
Then, he decisively hung up the phone, grabbed Saitama's arm, and rushed out without explanation.
"Hey, hey, hey! Why the rush?"
Saitama was baffled by the sudden action. His body was passively dragged along, but he didn't forget to look back at the game. "My game save! Aren't we taking the computer?"
"The staff will keep it safe for us!" Lin Mo shouted without looking back, his steps not faltering in the slightest.
"Monsters are attacking, we need to get there quickly!"
"Oh? Monsters?"
Hearing these two words, Saitama instantly perked up. He stopped, grabbed Lin Mo's arm in return, "Hold tight!"
"Eh?"
Before Lin Mo could react, he felt an irresistible immense force.
The next second, the scenery before him instantly blurred, and all he heard was the howling wind. He even felt as if his soul was about to be flung out.
"You don't have to go this fast, hey!"

City C.
The Giant Brother, thousands of meters tall, had already reduced half the city to ruins.
The human army was like fragile toys before him, and missile attacks couldn't even leave a scratch on his skin.
"Do you see it, little brother!" The older brother stood on the giant's broad shoulder, spreading his arms and laughing maniacally.
"This is absolute power! This is the world we brothers will rule!"
"That's right!" the Giant Brother rumbled in response.
He raised his palm and swatted towards the Hero Association branch building in the city center, "Even if it's KING, before me…"
Before he could finish, a powerful force stopped his fist from moving further.
"What?" The older brother's maniacal laugh froze on his face.
The two brothers looked on in astonishment.
Above them, a petite figure floated silently. Her green curly hair swayed in the wind, and her jade eyes were filled with ice-cold intensity.
"You're the 'Dragon' level monster, aren't you?" Terrible Tornado's lips unconsciously curved upwards. "KING didn't come, did he? Then it seems I've won this bet."
"You're… a hero?" The older brother narrowed his eyes, then burst into an even louder laugh of mockery.
"Hahaha! Is the Hero Association so desperate? To send such a wet-behind-the-ears little girl to her death!"
"Little brother! Crush her!"
"Roar—!"
The Giant Brother let out an earth-shattering roar. His other free arm changed direction and smashed fiercely towards Terrible Tornado.
The wind generated by this punch instantly blew away the remaining buildings on the ground, forming a destructive shockwave.
However, facing this world-shattering blow, Terrible Tornado merely curled her lip in disdain.
She didn't even move a finger.
That giant fist stopped abruptly again, dozens of meters away from her.
A visible, translucent green barrier perfectly protected her. No matter how much force the giant exerted, that thin barrier remained unmoving and indestructible.
"How… is that possible?!" The older brother's eyes were almost popping out of his head.
"Too slow," Terrible Tornado idly picked her ear. "And too weak. It's like a tickle."
She raised her hand, her icy gaze fixed on the older brother on the giant's shoulder.
"Compared to this big brute, you, the chattering fly on him, annoy me more."
Before she finished speaking, she simply waved her hand lightly.
"Ah—!"
The older brother felt an irresistible psychokinetic force grab him, instantly tearing him from his brother's shoulder and smashing him into a distant abandoned building like trash, his fate unknown.
"Brother!"
Seeing this, the Giant Brother became utterly enraged.
He unleashed even greater power, continuously slamming his fists against Terrible Tornado's barrier, attempting to break it.
The earth-shattering power was like a nuclear bombardment, erupting with thunderous sonic booms. The ground the Giant Brother stood on even began to sink continuously.
But the pale green barrier remained completely unmoved.
"Boring tricks. It's time to end this."
Terrible Tornado completely lost patience. She didn't want to waste any more time with this giant; she still had to win her bet with KING.
"Let me show you what true power is."
She slowly raised her head, her gaze piercing through the thick atmosphere, looking towards the deep, boundless universe.
She opened her palm, facing the mysterious starry sky.
"Buzz—!"
An unimaginably vast psychic power surged skyward from her, crossing tens of thousands of kilometers to reach the asteroid belt beyond Earth.
Members of the Hero Association, monitoring all of this via satellite, witnessed a scene they would never forget.
In the clear daytime sky, a "star" appeared without warning.
No, that wasn't a star.
It was a burning, gigantic black dot with a long tail of flames, and it was constantly growing larger, larger, and even larger at an incredible speed!
"What… what is that?" At Hero Association headquarters, a staff member pointed at the screen, his voice trembling uncontrollably.
"Is it… a meteor?" The Fat Cadre's eyes widened, the color draining from his face.
"She… she pulled a meteor from outer space?!"
On the ground, the Giant Brother naturally also felt the terrifying Intimidation capable of destroying everything.
He stopped his pointless attacks, staring blankly upwards at the colossal meteor that had already obscured half the sky, his eyes for the first time showing an emotion called "fear."
"No… impossible…" His pupils trembled violently, his voice filled with disbelief.
"As the salute for my winning the bet, you shall gloriously disappear."
Terrible Tornado declared coldly, gently waving her small hand downwards.
All nearby residents had already been evacuated to safe zones; the city's reconstruction was not within her consideration.
In an instant, dazzling white light engulfed the entire world.
