Witch Special

When Lin Zhenxi turned his attention to J City, the two S-class heroes had already been beaten up by the Deep Sea King in the sea.

Even if they are S-class heroes, even with the special underwater combat equipment provided by Child Emperor, they still cannot defeat Deep Sea King who has completely taken advantage of the home field.

Deep Sea King had been quite cautious before. After declaring himself a monster, he did not rashly set foot on land. Instead, he chose the steady path of causing a tsunami to flood J City.

Normally, a leader-type monster would lead by example. Deep Sea King's unusual behavior led humans to misjudge its strength. Some believed it was likely merely a tide-calling ability, and not inherently powerful. Now, those intelligence officers who made such claims have been slapped in the face.

If this isn't strong, then what is strong? Deep Sea King, in his home turf of the ocean, was able to defeat the two tankiest S-class heroes of the Hero Association.

The two heroes, Chogoku Darkshine and Sexy Criminal, share one thing in common... and it's not that they wear too little! While it's true that neither of them really likes to wear clothes, with one wearing only briefs on a daily basis and the other going completely naked in a fight, the commonality between them is that they have thick skin and can withstand a beating.

After all, they were all super-strong men who had trained their muscles to their brains. Their muscles were stronger than steel plates. The attacks of ordinary monsters on them might not even leave a red mark on their bodies, just a tickle. But now, they encountered an enemy who was even more outrageous than them.

Both have muscles all over their bodies and abdominal muscles, but in the sea water, the Deep Sea King's body is extremely resilient, and even if he is hit by a heavy punch, he can easily bounce off it.

The two heroes' movements underwater were already restricted. Even with the underwater combat suits provided by Child Emperor, their movements were not as flexible as on land. Moreover, because they had no support under their feet, their strength was far less than that on land. Therefore, the attacks of the two S-class heroes could not even break through Deep Sea King's physical defense. When they punched him with all their strength, Deep Sea King was often just knocked far away, but he was not hurt at all.

On the other hand, Deep Sea King's attacks always hit the two S-class heroes hard. The water flow seemed to have become Deep Sea King's accomplice, allowing him to swing his fists more powerfully and making it difficult for the two heroes to dodge. Some of them even put themselves in front of Deep Sea King's fists and get hit hard by a cannon punch.

Fortunately, these two S-class heroes are known for their thick skin and strong resistance, so they were able to hold out for such a long time under the heavy punches of the Deep Sea King. If it were someone else, even those heroes who are ranked higher than them would find it difficult to stay underwater for longer than them.

After all, when it comes to the ability to withstand a beating, those guys who are either old men or robots cannot compare with these two weightlifting maniacs who can easily win awards in fitness competitions.

Of course, if that tiny Lunwai had arrived, the battle would have been over. Even though the two S-Class heroes seemed helpless, they were stalling for time. After realizing they couldn't defeat the Deep Sea King on their own, the two heroes' goal shifted from defeating him to stalling for time until reinforcements arrived.

Humanity's overall strength is undoubtedly inferior to the endless stream of monsters, but why can the Hero Association protect the human world from the threat of monsters? Isn't it because monsters always fight alone, and even when they appear in groups, there is usually only one leader and a group of followers of the same species, with no coordination or cooperation at all?

Although humans may be weaker than monsters in terms of overall strength, they can still mobilize their own forces. As long as the battle lasts long enough, humans can deploy heroes from other places to rush to support them. It's like adding weights to a scale. At the beginning, humans are indeed underweight, but as their combat power increases, they will eventually overwhelm the monsters and win the final battle.

Of course, the premise of this is that there will be no monsters or disasters that are beyond everyone's control. Fortunately, the monsters and disasters that are evaluated as "god-level" have not appeared yet.

The last meteorite crisis was the most god-level disaster. All the heroes in the world combined could not stop it from coming, but because of Saitama's existence, the crisis was eventually eliminated. Apart from a worldwide riot, it only left the world with the evil legacy of the Criminal League.

The problem now is that Tornado, the strongest firefighter of the Hero Association who is highly expected, is too far away from J City. She is almost on the other side of this continent. Even if Tornado has started to rush to J City after receiving the notice from the Hero Association that the two physical S-class heroes cannot defeat Deep Sea King, it will take at least half a day for her to arrive.

It took half a day to get from one end of the continent to the other. This speed is quite fast, but considering the current situation in J City, it may not be of much help.

While Superalloy Darkshine and Sexy Criminal were incredibly resilient, they weren't completely limitless. Deep Sea King's fists were incredibly powerful, easily enough to send two S-Class heroes flying dozens of meters underwater with a single blow. If they struck a submerged structure, it would either pierce through it from within or completely collapse it.

The injuries on the two heroes began to become more serious as they accumulated, and what was worse was that the energy stored in the underwater combat suits provided to them by Child Emperor had been used up. Without the energy drive, the combat suits became simple tights, which could only provide impact resistance determined by the properties of their own materials, and could no longer support the two heroes to move freely in the water.

The two S-class heroes were completely powerless to resist and became the Deep Sea King's punching bags. Even though they were not incapable of swimming, compared to the Deep Sea King who lived underwater, their movements were clumsy like two large sloths.

Fortunately, the Deep Sea King didn't know that the masks the heroes wore on their mouths were their underwater breathing devices, otherwise it would have grabbed the two breathing devices and dragged the two heroes into the deep sea, probably drowning the two most important fighting forces of mankind.

So now they could no longer count on Superalloy Darkshine and the Sexy Criminal to do anything. Their mission now was to grit their teeth and hold on. Even a second counted. As long as they could hold out until more reinforcements arrived, their mission would be accomplished.

From the very beginning, this was not a fair battle, so there was no need to worry about the will of these two warriors being damaged.

If this had happened on land, a one-on-one fight in which the opponent was decisively crushed, there would naturally be nothing to say; it would have been a complete and utter defeat. However, now that the battle was under water, the two heroes couldn't even display 50% of their combat power, while the Deep Sea King had the advantage of home court. As long as the Deep Sea King didn't have any major flaws, losing wouldn't seem too shameful.

As long as they can get around this mental twist and avoid getting stuck in a dead end, then this battle will be just a pure ordeal of suffering for the two heroes who are being beaten, rather than a failure that will make them feel frustrated.

But there is a prerequisite here, that is, they don't get beaten to death by the Deep Sea King...

Indeed, these two are thick-skinned and very durable, but this only means that their health bars are several times longer than those of normal heroes, not that they are immortal and can survive any attack. That is not their characteristic, but the characteristic of the S-level No. 8 hero "Zombie Man".

So after the underwater combat suits ran out of energy, the two heroes were already in a dangerous state of confusion under the continuous heavy punches of the Deep Sea King. Even their body protection had become a subconscious reaction, and obvious gaps began to appear frequently.

With Deep Sea King's combat prowess, it was easy for him to exploit these flaws and deliver targeted strikes to the two heroes' vital points. Thus, the situation, which had been barely holding on, suddenly took a turn for the worse. With the Sexy Criminal completely unconscious from a brutal, execution-like blow to the back of the head from Deep Sea King's clenched fists, Superalloy Darkshine, who had barely clung to consciousness, was now unable to hold on alone, and defeat was inevitable.

Humanity absolutely cannot afford to lose two S-class heroes on the same day. Not even one, let alone two.

This world has a population of billions, but there are only a dozen or so S-class heroes, not even one permanently stationed in every numbered city. Every S-class hero is humanity's most valuable asset; they can be defeated, but never killed.

So as the two S-class heroes lost their combat effectiveness, rescuing them from Deep Sea King became the top priority, even more important than transferring and evacuating the people of J City.

Fortunately, thanks to the two S-class people who delayed the Deep Sea King's summoning of the tide, when they were fighting fiercely underwater, the sea water did not continue to spread in the urban area of ​​J City, which bought enough time for J City's various strategic deployments.

With this precious time, J City not only hurriedly completed the transfer of civilians trapped in shelters and rooftops, but also deployed a large number of usable combat forces around the battlefield between the two heroes and Deep Sea King.

However, the intensity of the battle between the S-class heroes and the Deep Sea King was too high, and they could not find any room to intervene, so they could only hide on the side and watch anxiously. Now that the battle was almost over, it was finally their turn to appear.

A large number of torpedo-shaped underwater robots swarmed from all directions, launching endless waves of purple shark-like attacks on the Deep Sea King. Although the successive explosions could not actually kill the Deep Sea King, they completely blocked its sight.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, two underwater operation robots, escorted by several local heroes from J City wearing underwater combat uniforms, quietly approached the two S-class heroes who had sunk to the bottom of the water. They grabbed them and ran away without even looking back at the waves of explosions that were constantly coming from behind them.

Although the two S-class heroes failed, they also bought enough time for J City. Although no one expected it, the reinforcements that were enough to determine the direction of the battlefield had arrived.

The background music played, and the four bold characters "Justice Execution" were displayed on the public screen! Lin Zhenxi had already thrown the bald devil to the edge of the battlefield.
