Chapter 17
: Genos's Attack
As they spoke, an even larger swarm of mosquitoes surged in from all directions, instantly forming a black canopy that resembled a natural disaster.
Genos gazed at the swarm of mosquitoes in mid-air and muttered to himself, "So many mosquitoes. If they're collecting blood from this city—no, from an even wider area—then this blood is more than just food to them. It seems we need to get rid of them as soon as possible."
(⊙o⊙), as expected of Genos, he chose to be virtuous during the enemy's transformation phase, refraining from a sneak attack, and transformed into a top-notch commentator, giving a powerful explanation. Only when Mosquito Girl was about to complete her transformation did he gather a large amount of energy from his right arm and unleash a burning cannon.
The blazing flames roared out like a giant dragon, crashing violently into the black sky above. The moment they collided, a deafening roar erupted. The black torrent expanded violently under the intense heat, bursting open one after another. The shockwave swept across the surroundings, destroying all the buildings in the once empty street and turning it into a scene of utter devastation.
"I thought you could talk, and that your intelligence was like a human's. But in the end, you're just an insect. You all gathered together to make it easier for me to burn you. When I found you, I already confirmed that there were no living beings within a 500-meter radius, so I could annihilate you without any worries." Genos, realizing that his attack had been very effective, began to explain confidently.
"Hahahaha, you idiot!"
A burst of wild laughter erupted in mid-air. The Mosquito Woman's form had changed; her broken leg had not only completely regenerated but had become even longer and stronger; her already alluring curves were now exaggerated to the extreme. Her enormous breasts stood proudly erect, heaving violently with her breath, like two ripe peaches about to burst, exuding a bewitching and deadly allure against the backdrop of the charred ruins.
Her once distinct black and white skin had completely faded, replaced by a deep, intense red, like fresh blood. With each casual movement of her limbs, she evoked a thrilling yet chilling heat.
It was as if a raging furnace had been ignited within her body, with countless streams of blood boiling and burning in her veins, turning into surging heat that repeatedly assaulted her body. The swelling sensation, so full of power that it felt like she was about to burst, made her feel as if she were experiencing an orgasm. She slightly raised her head and let out a long, satisfied sigh.
Facing the ashes of the mosquito swarm below, she didn't even lift an eyelid, but instead gave Genos a contemptuous grin.
"Hahahaha, what did you think I was doing sending all the children to you to burn?"
Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly raised her sharp, knife-like forepaw, the movement so fast that it left a trail of afterimages in the air.
"laugh--"
Without any hindrance, she casually swung her hand towards a skyscraper beside her. The incredibly sturdy reinforced concrete building was now as fragile as soft tofu, the cut as smooth as a mirror. With a sickening metallic twisting sound, the entire skyscraper was snapped in half, kicking up clouds of dust.
Witnessing this devastating scene, the Mosquito Woman's ecstatic joy intensified. She proudly puffed out her ample bosom, her voice high-pitched and distorted with extreme excitement:
"That's because... I don't need them anymore! Hahaha~ Look at me now, so perfect, so...powerful! Ahahahaha~"
..............................
Meanwhile, Boros and Saitama, who had already arrived in Z City, also saw the huge swarm of mosquitoes that had gathered in the distance. Without waiting for Saitama, Boros flashed away.
Before the sound of the sonic boom could even be heard, he had already vanished from the spot.
A kilometer is but a blink of an eye.
When his figure solidified again, he was already standing in the center of the battlefield, ravaged by fire and bombardment. The air was still filled with the pungent smell of burnt and bloody mingled together, but Boros paid no attention to it.
His aggressive eyes swept past the disheveled Genos, locking onto the alluring figure in mid-air who had just completed her evolution. He smiled faintly and said, "Found you."
Then, he slightly turned his head, his gaze falling on Genos, who had lost an arm but was still barely maintaining a fighting stance. He saw that although Genos had lost an arm, the main structure of the arm was still intact.
Boros thought to himself, "I'm still pretty fast. Unlike those third-rate plots where they have to wait until Genos is about to self-destruct with all his might before I arrive. Looks like I came just in time."
As soon as Boros spoke, the two on the battlefield sensed this sudden presence, and their eyes immediately focused on this uninvited guest.
Genos's electronic eyes raced, red data streams flashing across his retina. In a mere instant, he recognized the newcomer, his tone grave:
"The Hero Association's S-Class Hero, 'Azure Heaven Fist' Boros? Very good..."
He quickly adjusted his posture and shouted to Boros, "Mr. Boros, this monster has evolved through blood-sucking, and her strength has increased exponentially! We need to work together. Please help me hold her off for a while. I will gather all the remaining energy in my body to unleash a fatal blow, which will only take a few seconds!"
On the other side, the Mosquito Woman's scarlet eyes flashed with a hint of fear the moment they touched Boros.
"Damn it, another troublesome guy has appeared..." she cursed inwardly, her mind quickly recalling information about this person—the one the Doctor had marked as "extremely dangerous."
"Although I've just completed my transformation and possess immense power, I might not be afraid of him, but there's no need to take that risk here," the Mosquito Woman thought to herself.
"It would be best to leave now!"
Having made up her mind, she didn't hesitate. The transparent wings on her back flapped suddenly, and she instantly took to the air, trying to escape this place of trouble.
Boros was speechless when he heard Genos's words: "Kid, are you really stupid or just pretending? Can't you see my aura and image? My appearance alone makes it clear that I'm either a hidden peak powerhouse or the final boss of the villains. My style is superior to yours. You need me to cooperate with you to fight a little mosquito girl?"
While muttering to himself, he caught a glimpse of Mosquito Girl trying to escape with his one eye. With a thought, his figure, which had been standing on the ruins, vanished instantly without warning, and the air didn't even have time to fill the vacuum that momentarily created.
The next moment, Boros appeared out of thin air like a ghost, cutting off Mosquito Girl's escape route. He casually raised his right hand, and his five fingers shot out like iron pincers, instantly gripping Mosquito Girl's fragile neck tightly.
"Gurgle..."
Mosquito Girl, who had originally intended to return to the lab, had all those thoughts extinguished in that instant. Her eyes widened in terror as the arm gripping her throat felt like a towering mountain, radiating a suffocating sense of oppression. The absolute crushing force from a higher level of existence seemed to freeze the blood in her veins, leaving her suspended in mid-air in despair and fear, too afraid to even struggle.
"Heh, Dr. Genus, I know you're spying on this place through this little bug. How about it? Want a blood sample from me? No need for you to come and ask me, just wait, I'm coming to you right now."
Boros's deep, cold voice echoed across the empty battlefield. He looked down at the stiff Mosquito Girl, casually raised his hand, and threw her away. The Mosquito Girl's delicate body drew a messy parabola in mid-air before crashing heavily onto the gravel ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Boros strode down slowly, his gaze icy as he stared at the motionless Mosquito Girl, and said in an unquestionable tone:
"Take me to your 'House of Evolution.' Don't even think about running away. You should know the consequences of disobeying me."
Not far away, Genos's electronic eyes were flashing a blinding blue light as he stared intently at Boros's figure, a storm raging within him:
"What? In just a moment, he completely subdued Mosquito Girl, who was just fighting me to a standstill and even had the upper hand... Is this Mr. Boros really that powerful?"
"Hey, Boros, what are you doing here? Are you here to fight monsters? You could easily handle a monster of this level by yourself, right?"
At that moment, a slightly lazy voice, tinged with doubt, drifted over from the other side of the ruins. Saitama, sporting his signature bald head, walked over with his hands in the pockets of his slightly tight tracksuit, looking completely nonchalant.
Upon hearing the voice, Genos stiffened slightly, wondering what this random passerby was up to. He then took a deep breath, as if making a decision, and abruptly turned around, completely ignoring the bald demon king who seemed like a nobody to him. He walked straight to Boros, clasped his hands tightly, bowed deeply, and called out with utmost sincerity and urgency:
"Master Boros! My name is Genos! Please, you must take me as your apprentice! I yearn to become stronger, I yearn to possess your absolute power that can protect everything!"
Hey, you look so serious, but I didn't expect you to be so clever. You called me "teacher" right away, didn't you?
"Ahem, we can talk about becoming an apprentice later. Your name is Genos, right? I'm heading to the Mosquito Woman's lair now. How are you? Can you still fight?"
"Professor Boros, I can do it, please be sure to take me with you."
"Hehe, not bad, keep up."
"Hey? Why are you all ignoring me? Am I some random passerby? What did I even come out with you for?" the bald man said with a resentful look.
"Can't you see I'm almost a role model for teachers? Can you please not steer me towards comedy during this moment of glory?" Boros's lips twitched, and he quickly coughed and said seriously:
"Saitama, just think of us as going out for a walk to digest our food. We're stuck at home playing video games all day; it's time to get some exercise, don't you think?"
"Defeating a monster like Mosquito Girl, and then destroying the House of Evolution that created her—is that just a simple matter like taking a walk in Boros's eyes?" Genos thought with admiration, then whispered to Saitama beside him:
"Are you also a disciple of Master Boros? Could you tell me what I should be mindful of when interacting with Master Boros?"
A bald man: "………………"
It turns out that people can be really speechless when they're speechless...
