As Tatsumaki's Psychic Power fully erupted, the already crumbling underground space finally couldn't bear the load.
Boom!
The specially made alloy walls were instantly torn apart.
Not only Psykos's cell, but also the rows of red-lit cells around it, completely collapsed under this indiscriminate Psychic Power impact.
"Warning! Warning! Underground 13th floor containment facility damaged! Containment failure!"
"Warning! Underground 14th floor defense barrier breached! High-energy reaction detected!"
"Roar!!!"
Accompanied by piercing alarm sounds, countless shadowy figures filled with violent aura rushed out of their cells.
This was the underground containment facility of the Hero Association headquarters, where not only Psykos but also a large number of Monsters were imprisoned.
The 13th underground floor mainly housed numerous 'Wolf'-level to 'Tiger'-level fodder Monsters.
Even more alarming, as the ground cracked, the deeper 14th underground floor was also exposed.
Several incredibly powerful auras shot into the sky.
Those were Demon-level Monsters!
Some of them, due to long-term imprisonment and experimentation, had accumulated immense rage, and their strength had subtly surpassed the Demon-level.
"Hahaha! Finally out!"
"Kill all humans! Turn this place into ruins!"
The roars of the Monsters rose and fell.
Facing this sudden chaos, Tatsumaki and Fubuki, who were in a standoff, couldn't help but frown.
Tatsumaki was about to casually swat these flies to death, and then properly discipline her disobedient younger sister.
However, just then.
Thump, thump, thump.
A dull, powerful heartbeat suddenly drowned out all the alarm sounds and roars.
The Monsters who had just rushed out of their cells suddenly froze.
Lin Mo still stood in place, hands in his pockets.
He slightly raised his head, scanned the restless Monsters around him, and finally landed his gaze on Tatsumaki in mid-air.
His eyebrow twitched slightly.
In an instant, an invisible Intimidation descended like Mount Tai pressing down.
Emperor Engine, full power activated.
The previously noisy underground 13th floor instantly fell into a deathly silence.
The few Demon-level Monsters that had been roaring were now filled with fear.
They instinctively felt that if they dared to move again, they would surely die!
Even Tatsumaki and Fubuki were awed by this sudden aura, subconsciously stopping their actions and turning to look at that man.
Lin Mo slowly spoke:
"If you want to fight, go outside. This is headquarters."
His deep eyes looked at Tatsumaki, "If the headquarters building collapses, the subsequent cleanup will be very troublesome."
"And..."
Lin Mo's gaze swept over the trembling Monsters around him, but a hint of doubt arose in his heart.
Logically, Monsters should be executed immediately after capture.
Why were there so many Monsters, some even Demon-level, imprisoned beneath the Association headquarters?
Were they for experiments? Or was there some unspeakable transaction?
But now was not the time to delve into it.
Tatsumaki also came back to her senses at this moment.
She gritted her teeth, looking at the man who stood on the ground, suppressing the entire scene with just his aura.
"Hmph."
Tatsumaki let out an arrogant snort, glared fiercely at Lin Mo, and said grumpily:
"None of your business! Meddlesome fellow!"
Although she said that, her body was very honest.
Enveloped in emerald green light, she shot up like a stream of light, rushing out through the huge hole above her head.
"Fubuki! If you have the guts, follow me! Let me see how much 'resolve' you truly have!"
Tatsumaki's voice came from high above, carrying her usual arrogance.
Fubuki glanced up, then turned and looked deeply at KING.
She knew that KING was creating an opportunity for her, a chance to have a fair conversation with her sister in an open area.
"Thank you, Mr. KING."
Fubuki whispered, then took a deep breath, her Psychic Power erupting around her as she controlled her body to fly out right behind.
"Psykos, wait for me, I will definitely come back and get to the bottom of everything!"
With the departure of the two sisters, the almost suffocating sense of standoff finally dissipated somewhat.
"Phew... they're finally gone."
Saitama scratched his bald head, glanced at the Monsters around him who were beginning to stir as the Intimidation disappeared, and said:
"Hey, KING, should we go too? The air here is terrible, full of dust."
"Mm."
Lin Mo nodded.
But he didn't move immediately. Instead, he lowered his head slightly and looked at a large black dog that had been released.
Rover.
As a Dragon-level Executive, it was currently squatting obediently on the ground, wagging its tail.
Lin Mo reached out and gently stroked Rover's massive head.
It felt quite good, the fur was smooth.
"Rover."
Lin Mo said to Rover, "Deal with them, they're too noisy."
"Woof!"
Upon receiving the command, Rover's originally innocent eyes instantly changed.
It was the ferocity and brutality of a Dragon-level Monster.
It suddenly turned around, facing the group of Monsters.
"What's that? A dog?"
"Damn it! To look down on us so much, to send a dog to..."
The Monster at the very front hadn't finished speaking.
Rover's huge mouth suddenly opened.
Buzz!!!
High-density energy converged in its mouth.
Boom!
A thick, scorching energy blast instantly engulfed everything in front of it.
Whether 'Wolf'-level, 'Tiger'-level, or even those few Demon-level Monsters, they were all incredibly fragile before this scorching energy blast.
The terrifying explosion shook the entire base, with heatwaves rolling.
When the smoke and dust cleared.
The previously crowded and noisy corridor was now utterly empty.
Only a charredravines remained.
All the Monsters were turned to ash in this single attack.
"Woof!"
Rover closed its mouth, exhaled a wisp of white smoke, and then immediately turned around, wagging its tail at Lin Mo with an expression seeking praise.
"Well done."
Lin Mo casually praised it, then walked out side by side with Saitama.
"Let's go, let's see how those two sisters are fighting."
"Oh, okay. But Rover is quite strong, more useful than I thought."
The two men and one dog leisurely walked away from this ruin.
Only Black Sperm remained, standing silently.
It looked at the terrifying charred trench, then at the cheerfully wagging Rover in front, and couldn't help but feel a little envious.
As a former top executive of the Monster Association, it knew Rover's strength all too well.
"Sigh..."
Black Sperm sighed and scurried after them on its short legs.
After catching up to Rover, it immediately climbed onto Rover's back without a word.
Rover turned its head and bared its teeth, seemingly displeased.
"Don't be so petty, Brother Rover."
Black Sperm patted Rover's thick back, its tone carrying a hint of world-weariness:
"We're in the same boat now, like grasshoppers on a string."
"You're lucky, your strength is still there, only your size has gotten smaller."
Black Sperm touched its own head with a touch of melancholy, "And me? To return to my peak, who knows how long I'll have to wait."
"Woof!"
Rover seemed to understand, letting out a low growl, but still didn't shake Black Sperm off, carrying it as it followed behind Lin Mo.
