"Damn, it's only five o'clock, so stingy."

Wu Di frowned. The higher the level of the monsters he killed, the more talent points he could obtain.

Killing a Wolf-level monster yielded a maximum of one hundred talent points, Tiger-level five hundred, and Demon-level depended on the situation. Dragon-level and God-level were even higher.

However, it also depended on the monster's strength. For example, this Underground Monster before him was clearly the lowest type, something even a C-Class Hero could easily handle.

"Ah~ Help me!"

As Wu Di was complaining, cries for help came from the street again. He moved his body and quickly rushed over.

Upon arriving, Wu Di found over a dozen people surrounded by a group of underground dwellers. Without a word, he charged into the monsters.

"Die!"

Boom Due to the accumulation of his aura, Wu Di's punch actually blew up an underground dweller, with green blood splashing everywhere. The monsters and humans present were stunned.

"Great, we're saved, it's a hero!"

"Strange, why have I never seen this hero before?"

"With such power, who else could it be but a hero!"

"That's true, go hero!"

Seeing hope for survival, the crowd instantly erupted. At this moment, the monsters also realized Wu Di's strength and lunged at him.

"Good, come on! Kill!"

Wu Di's fighting spirit was ignited, and his eyes showed a bloodthirsty gaze.

Boom boom boom As the battle continued, Wu Di's strength grew stronger and stronger. He could vaguely feel the accumulation of his aura, which made him more and more excited.

"Hurry up! Kill this human!"

More and more underground dwellers felt the battle here and rushed over.

Wu Di, however, felt no sign of exhaustion and didn't need to worry about his injuries, as any severe trauma would heal quickly.

"Savage Tornado!"

Killing intent flared in Wu Di's eyes, and his body began to spin rapidly. He didn't have a weapon like Metal Bat, so he simply started wildly swinging his fists.

Boom boom boom Countless fist shadows were thrown out wildly, forming a massive tornado that swept through at extreme speed. Any underground dweller it touched was pulverized by the terrifying fist wind.

"Ding~ Congratulations to the host for killing a low-level Wolf-class monster, gaining five talent points."

"Ding~ Congratulations to the host for killing a low-level Wolf-class monster, gaining ten talent points."

"Ding~ Congratulations to the host for killing a low-level Wolf-class monster, gaining ten talent points."

A series of notification sounds rang out continuously. Wu Di's aura was also continuously accumulating. He even felt that he could now deal with Demon-level monsters.

"Too... too strong!"

"Who... who is this Masked Black Hero? Why have I never seen him?"

"He might be a newly recruited hero by the Hero Association. So reliable."

Admiration continuously came from the crowd. At this moment, almost all the monsters had been killed by Wu Di. The remaining ones were also scared out of their wits and fled back underground through the cracks in the ground.

"Masked Black Hero..."

Wu Di felt speechless listening to the people's discussions, but thinking about Teacher Saitama's nickname, Bald Cape Hero, he felt somewhat at ease.

"Um... Mr. Masked Black Hero..."

A man cautiously stepped forward, and Wu Di looked at him with some confusion.

"There are monsters appearing on the street over there too. My friend is still there, can you save him?"

The man's eyes were full of expectation, and a strange feeling surged in Wu Di's heart.

"Don't worry, leave it to me. You guys hurry to the nearest shelter."

After speaking, Wu Di's figure disappeared from everyone's sight. At this moment, his aura had accumulated to a terrifying level.

"This new hero is so reassuring."

"Masked Black Hero, thank you..."

"It's just ahead!"

Wu Di heard the cries for help and the fluctuations of battle from the street ahead. Many people were also fleeing in panic.

"Run! The heroes have been defeated!"

"Who will save us!"

Wu Di listened to the voices in the crowd, somewhat surprised. Logically, even a C-Class Hero could handle this group of Wolf-level monsters, unless that guy appeared.

Thinking of this, Wu Di quickened his pace, passed through the crowd, and arrived on the street. As expected, several C-Class Heroes were lying on the ground.

"Another hero? Take him down!"

An underground dweller, nearly two meters tall, roared and pounced at Wu Di. With a boom, the monster was sent flying by Wu Di but was not seriously injured and quickly got back up.

"These guys are stronger than the previous monsters!"

Wu Di's eyes held no fear, only intense excitement. While these monsters before him were a bit stronger than the previous ones, they still hadn't broken out of the Wolf-level category.

"Die!"

Boom, boom, boom! Wu Di, unbothered by his injuries, wildly swung his fists. Blood poured from his upper body, his clothes completely torn, revealing his robust physique.

"Ding~ Congratulations to the host for killing a mid-tier Wolf-level monster, rewarded with fifty talent points."

As expected, the talent points rewarded by the system this time were several times more than before. At this moment, Wu Di had already charged into the monster crowd, his aura radiating outwards. Every strike he landed stirred up terrifying gusts of wind.

After consecutively killing dozens of monsters, the remaining underground dwellers began to scatter. However, Wu Di didn't pursue them. Instead, he began to check on the injured heroes.

"Good, they're all still breathing."

Wu Di breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that the heroes were not seriously harmed. Just then, a C-Class Hero woke up.

"Be careful... their leader..."

After saying this, the hero fainted. Wu Di was utterly confused.

"Whatever, I need to find some clothes to wear first."

Wu Di looked at his bare upper body with a bit of speechlessness. Although his body could recover, his clothes couldn't. In future battles, he would still have to try his best to avoid damage, otherwise, he'd inevitably end up naked.

Ring, ring~ The phone rang. Wu Di, who had just put on clothes, took out the phone specially provided to him by the Hero Association from his pocket.

"Hello?"

"Mr. King, monsters have been detected in City M. We've already sent people to deal with them, but it seems all the heroes have been defeated. It's suspected that a monster of Demon-level or higher has appeared. Could you please step in?"

"Tell me the location."

Thump thump thump~ Wu Di's heart began to pound. No wonder so many heroes were defeated. It seemed the Demon-level monster, the Underground King, had appeared.

"Alright! I'll send the location to your phone right away."

Maria hung up the phone and let out a long sigh of relief. At this moment, Supervisor Jace of the Hero Association walked up behind her.

"What did King say?"

"King just asked me to tell him the location, only saying 'I understand,' followed by the deafening King Engine."
