Chapter 643: Very courageous
"Isn't it important?"
In response to Ash Xia Yu's question, Sweetheart Mask was surprised: "When you are ugly, no matter how many good deeds you do, no one will notice it. But when you are beautiful, even if you do nothing, you will become the focus of everyone."
"Even so..."
Ash Xia Yu paused for a moment, then suddenly chuckled: "But since we are human beings, isn't it more important to care about how we see ourselves instead of how others see us?"
"Think about it, would the ideal perfect hero care about what others think of him? Take Blast, the number one S-class hero, for example. Do you think he cares about how others view him?"
"this……"
For a moment, Sweetheart Mask was speechless, but soon he shook his head and replied: "Maybe you are right, but I think a hero must have both appearance and inner beauty."
"Heroes are role models for ordinary people. Every move of heroes will affect ordinary people, so it is equally important to make ordinary people accept their appearance."
Hearing this, Huijin Xia Yu sighed in his heart but did not refute immediately.
As expected, he doesn't have Saitama's charm. It's clear that what he just said was almost the same as what Saitama said at the beginning.
However, it is also possible that Sweetheart Mask has not yet encountered a crisis where he has to expose himself, so he cannot empathize with what was just said.
But at least the other party affirmed what he said, and that was enough.
“Don’t forget why you became a hero.”
Ash Xia Yu suddenly patted Sweetheart Mask's shoulder and spoke to him earnestly.
Sweetheart Mask looked at Huijin Xia Yu, who looked like a senior in front of him, speechlessly. He was obviously the senior in this industry, so why was he being taught a lesson instead?
Moreover, he came to find the other party just to tell him that a hero must be a symbol of beauty and justice. How could he forget why he became a hero?
The speechless thoughts flashed through his mind, and Sweetheart Mask sighed lightly, and also reached out and patted Huijin Xia Yu's shoulder.
"Welcome to the hero industry. I have found you qualified. If you want to move up to S-rank, I will approve you. I look forward to your future performance."
After saying that, Sweetheart Mask turned around and left. He had other work to do.
After walking a few steps, his cell phone suddenly rang, and Sweetheart Mask took out the phone and answered it.
"What's wrong? Someone is looking for me? Oh, it's the music producer who wrote a song for me before. He said he has something to ask of me?"
"Okay, let's make an appointment. By the way, I'll ask him if he has any inspiration recently. After all, I have a new TV series to shoot and I need a theme song..."
Sweetheart Mask walked away while talking on the phone. Looking at Sweetheart Mask leaving, Huijin Xia Yu suddenly felt that the other party had a hard time too.
Not only does he have to maintain his identity as an artist, he also often performs hero activities. I heard that he doesn't even have any hobbies because he is too busy with work and has no time to invest in his hobbies.
After expressing his feelings, Xia Yu of Ashes turned his gaze to the layers of snow-capped mountains that seemed to have remained unchanged since time immemorial.
As for why he was here, it was because he was waiting for the ancient king who would appear in the original book.
This ancient king is a demon-level monster like the Deep Sea King. In fact, in addition to these two kings, there are also the Underground King and the Sky King.
But the Underground King was trampled to death by Saitama, and the Sky King was split into two and killed by the invading messenger because of Boros' invasion.
So in order to be promoted to S-level as soon as possible, he found the location of the ancient king, and then slowly waited for him to wake up from the ice and then be noticed by the Hero Association.
By then, he would be able to appear in time to deal with the Ancient King and break through the A-level ranking in one fell swoop. Even if he became the last in the S-level, he would accept it.
Of course, he did not place all his hopes on the Ancient King. Before that, he had dealt with some of the monsters that appeared. Unfortunately, other heroes were also taking action, so at most he just increased his contribution a little.
Several days passed until one day, the earth suddenly began to tremble.
Under the dark ice in the crevice of the snow-capped mountain, a scarlet eye suddenly opened, and cracks suddenly appeared in the layers of extremely thick frozen ice.
In just a moment, astonishing heat emanated from the cracks, until at one point, the thick ice exploded with a loud bang.
Along with dust rising into the sky, a giant dinosaur crawled out from the ground. It looked a bit like a flightless beast in a game.
But this dinosaur is not red in color, but the same earthy brown color as the earth.
The dark brown scales on his body are like an absolute defense that cannot be broken, protecting his explosive muscles.
After the ancient king appeared, it moved towards the city while speaking in human language.
"I have waited too long for this moment, human!"
"The Underground King and the Deep Sea King are gone, and we the Dinosaurs are going to rule this planet again."
Such arrogant words echoed on the top of the mountain, and the next second, a missile hit the ancient king's head.
However, this destructive missile did not cause any harm to the Ancient King. The Ancient King's skin was much thicker than imagined.
"I don't know how this ancient dinosaur learned human language, and even knew that the Deep Sea King and the Underground King were gone."
In the distance, Ash Xia Yu looked at the Ancient King who was being bombarded by missiles and couldn't help but complain.
It is obvious that this ancient king has been frozen under the glacier, but he not only learned human language, but also was able to get news from the outside world in a timely manner. This is not scientific at all.
"Forget it, this has nothing to do with me. If I were a little slower, it would be bad if Tornado got the kill."
Seeing that the Ancient King was being led to the target location by the missile, Ash Xia Yu stood up in time, took out a mobile phone and called the Hero Association.
At the same time, he took off with a big jump and flew towards the ancient king's position, and with his empty hand he drew out the Luo Zhi sword he used .
“Beep…”
"Hello, this is the Hero Association, may I ask..."
"I'm Ashes, the second-ranked hero in Class A. I suddenly noticed a giant dinosaur monster appeared on the plain snowy mountain side, and I 'm on my way to destroy it."
"What? Wait, if you mean the great disaster that awakened in the plains and snowy mountains, then we have already sent Miss Tornado..."
"Tell her not to come, I'm already in front of this big dinosaur."
After saying this, Xia Yu hung up the phone and landed lightly in front of the giant dinosaur.
Looking at the giant dinosaur in front of him that was nearly 100 meters tall, Huijin Xia Yu raised his head and asked, "Hey, big dinosaur, what does the tattoo on your head mean? Damn, there are even strange words on your horns, awesome."
Facing Ash Xia Yu's question, the Ancient King did not step on it directly, but lowered his head and replied: "This is not a strange word, and I am not a giant dinosaur. The pattern on my forehead is my honor as an Ancient King."
"Listen carefully, human. I am the ancient king, the leader of the dinosaurs that once ruled this planet. I am the apex of the biological world and the top of the food chain."
"The top of the food chain..."
Hearing this, Hui Jin Xia Yu looked up and down at the Ancient King with his dead fish eyes: "You don't even have the Black Light Virus, and you still dare to say that you are at the top of the food chain?"
"Blacklight virus?"
Hearing this unfamiliar word, the Ancient King was stunned and asked in confusion: "What kind of virus is that? Why have I never heard of it? What does it have to do with the top of the food chain?"
"Only those who possess the Blacklight Virus can claim to be at the top of the food chain. You? You're just a dish."
Ash Xia Yu stretched out his index finger and shook it, then changed it to his middle finger and pointed it at the Ancient King with a look of disdain on his face.
Seeing the human in front of him humiliating him, the Ancient King wanted to step on him angrily, but just as he raised his foot, Ash Xia Yu had already made a gesture to draw his sword.
"As a dish, just be a good ingredient. Don't think about being at the top of the food chain all day long. You are not qualified."
"Eat my sword-drawing skills!"
clang——!
The sword hummed softly, and in an instant, the world seemed to be filled with only the dazzling slashing of swords.
The ancient king raised his feet high, and his huge body seemed to be frozen again. The next second, his body was dislocated and split into two and fell to both sides.
With a loud bang, the originally arrogant ancient king immediately turned into two pieces of flesh that collapsed to the ground, and at the place where they were separated, a cut extended to the end of the sight.
Xia Yu, who was half-kneeling on the ground with his back to the corpse of the ancient king, held the sword in his right hand and the scabbard in his left hand, then slowly and pretentiously inserted the sword into the scabbard.
Click!
Fits perfectly.
"Justice! Execution!"
Even though no one sees it, sometimes it's enough to show off as long as it makes you feel good.
It's like you're walking on the road and suddenly a big shot comes along, or a sword strikes.
After maintaining the posture for two or three seconds, Xia Yu stood up, then turned around and looked at the two huge pieces of dinosaur meat that had collapsed behind him. These were top-quality dinosaur meats that had been pickled underground for who knows how many years, and they must be tasted.
However, before Ashes Xia Yu could put away the dinosaur meat, a petite figure with a light green glow all over his body appeared in front of him and snorted coldly.
"Are you the one who stole my target? You are so brave!"
Huijin Xia Yu looked at the green-haired loli who suddenly appeared in astonishment. He had said that he didn't need her to come, but she actually came anyway.
That’s right, the green-haired loli in front of you is Tornado, the second-ranked S-class hero. Her hero name is “Trembling Tornado”. Although she looks like a minor, she is actually 28 years old.
However, if you ask people who don’t know Tornado to guess her age, the answers will definitely all be that she is a minor.
Because Tornado's appearance is that of a petite but well-built little girl with green curly hair and a long black dress.
Perhaps to appear mature, the bottom of her dress was not an ordinary long skirt, but was split into four strips of black cloth, revealing a pair of white and tender legs.
Moreover, the forks of the four black cloths were very large, as if if they floated upwards, one would be able to see the hidden absolute territory.
Looking at the long skirt that was almost split to the waist, Huijin Xia Yu sighed with some regret. If he had known that the tornado was coming, he would definitely look up.
After all, with his eyesight, he can definitely peek into that mysterious area, and then he will know whether the other person is wearing underwear or not.
