Several unidentified terrorists emerged from a dark wormhole in the distant sky and descended upon Juxia City, attacking passing civilians.
He wore a suit of silver metal armor.
He possessed immense strength.
"Ha ha ha! As King Hao's advance force, I'll show you weak humans just how formidable we Taotie are."
"Run! Run for your lives!"
Their weapons locked onto every fleeing civilian.
Yet Lin Yan stood motionless by the roadside. Not far from him, those menacing terrorists were closing in.
"There's still one who hasn't run. His legs must have gone weak from fear."
A Taotie soldier spotted Lin Yan.
His weapon aimed at him.
Three-second countdown!
Two-second countdown!
One-second countdown!
A bullet spun through the air, tearing it apart with a shriek. The muzzle flash was visible, along with faint distortions in the air.
[ Ding! Congratulations, host. Check-in successful! ] [ Mission reward: One-Punch Man Ability activated. ]
A warm current instantly surged through Lin Yan's limbs and bones.
Lin Yan could even hear his joints crackling. Endless strength filled his entire body, as though every cell had been fully charged.
That exhilarating sensation—
Made Lin Yan's clear blue eyes shine even brighter. With a slight tilt of his body, a bullet trailing a blue tail streak grazed past his face.
Boom!
The bullet exploded in the distance.
The arrogant laughter of the silver-armored Gluttonous Warriors abruptly stopped. One of them froze for a moment.
This was a weapon of spacefaring technology. Against an Earthling from a Pre-Nuclear Civilization, it should have been a one-shot kill.
"Shit! What the hell is this? Fire! Fire! Kill him!"
Lin Yan was instantly engulfed by a barrage of explosions. Even the people still fleeing were stunned by what they saw.
Such dense firepower.
Once the smoke cleared, there would surely be a mangled corpse.
"Bah! What a waste of bullets on these ant-like Earthlings!"
However—
Lin Yan appeared in the opposite direction.
At the instant he was about to be hit, he had felt something strange. His body reacted on its own, and he had even seen the bullet skim past his cheek in slow motion.
No.
He had become faster.
The moment the relentless firepower covered the area, Lin Yan had already left.
"Where did you monsters come from? You opened fire without a word. That's not something civilized people should do."
Of the three Taotie soldiers, one had been looking especially pleased with himself.
He turned around, only for his eyes to widen in disbelief.
"Attack! That guy isn't dead!"
"Damn it!"
"How could an Earthling's body possibly withstand the attacks of our great Taotie weapons?"
"Take him down!"
The three Gluttonous Warriors aimed their weapons at Lin Yan and unleashed another barrage. One of them also contacted their aerial forces for support.
"Advance team requesting support. We have encountered a life-form with a physique stronger than that of Earth humans."
Several strangely shaped aircraft suddenly flew out of the dark wormhole in the distant sky. Their azure exhaust flames roared loudly enough to be heard a hundred miles away.
They had only one target—Lin Yan.
Lin Yan's figure appeared on the aircrafts' screens.
[ Target acquired... Analyzing target... ] [ Unable to analyze. ] [ This system only analyzes Earth humans of the Pre-Nuclear Civilization. Target exceeds analysis parameters. ]
"You're requesting support over just an Earth kid?"
"No, why can't he be analyzed?"
"Isn't that perfect? Capture him. King Hao will definitely be pleased!"
As all of this unfolded, Lin Yan's mind also received a description of One-Punch Man Saitama's abilities.
He possessed combat abilities that broke through the limits of species.
