Starting with one punch, I'll stop being human.

Based on the original "Spiked Armor", not only has the core "shape change" function been added, but the material has also been upgraded from the original insect carapace made of biomass to this science fiction-like "shadow matter".

It can freely change its shape and customize its style according to Han Sen's will!

Based on the information naturally fed back to the user by his abilities, the newly formed "Shadow Armor" was transformed from Han Sen's own biomass, while simultaneously drawing energy from his body to provide power.

It can appear locally like a second layer of skin to provide protection, or it can attach to existing clothing to enhance defense and increase self-repair capabilities. Furthermore, it can cover the entire body as a complete suit of armor, providing all-round offensive and defensive enhancements.

With a thought, a black substance, like flowing water, seeped from under Han Sen's skin beneath his palm, which was not recorded by the surveillance cameras.

First it coalesced into a sharp spike, then quickly transformed into various shapes—

Knives, shields, hammers, and even tentacles as thin as hair.

"Is the degree of freedom almost maximized? Not bad!"

If I had to put it into words, my current innate ability is more like a combination of Venom symbiote and nanotech armor, except that there is no chattering alien symbiote will or advanced artificial intelligence worth a few small targets in the suit.

Suppressing his body's primal urge to experience "Henshin" on the spot, Han Sen felt the cool liquid flowing across his skin and had a sudden realization.

While the ability to copy is powerful, it always seems to be separated by an invisible barrier, making it more like an external plugin.

The initial form of the "Shadow Armor," the "Hardened Shell," is its original inherent ability that truly feels like a part of itself, possessing infinite possibilities.

"In other words, this potential for directional evolution according to one's own will seems to be possessed only by one's unique innate ability? No wonder..."

If that's the case, then the next stage of evolution of the innate ability becomes even more anticipated.

Unfortunately, the SR-level "Shadow Armor" still contains a powerful aura of a monster, making it easy for the monster detection machines that have been widely deployed to lock onto it.

Its jet-black color makes it even more villainous. Even if Han Sen wears it in human form, he would most likely be judged as an evil product of some kind of strange experiment.

Analyzing the pros and cons of the talent armor in his mind, Han Sen realized that at this stage, it was almost impossible to disguise the hero suit with the monster armor.

After all, the Hero Association's analysts aren't fools, and their various high-tech testing instruments aren't just for show.

"It seems there are still many options that need to be optimized in the next upgrade."

However, that's a story for later.

Chapter 31 The Strongest on Earth Due to Luck

Currently, there are just over 7 source points remaining.

Han Sen thought for a moment. The next upgrade of his core ability "Overgrowth" was still a long way off, and it wouldn't make much difference.

Let's just put all our efforts into the existing capabilities to help them reach new heights.

[Consuming 6300 Origin Points, "Shadow Armor" level increased! Lv1->Lv7!]

[Consuming 630 Origin Points, "Rapid Regeneration" level increased! Lv1->Lv7!]

Having completed all of this, Hansen's panel information underwent another comprehensive update.

【—END———】

At this point, all of the angel investment from the wealthy Sykes has been converted into immediate combat power.

Han Sen turned off the system panel, raised his arm to rest behind his head, and comfortably lay back in the seat.

Next, it's time to enjoy the journey.

"Dear passenger, hello~~"

"Your train G10086 is about to arrive at M City High-speed Railway Station. Please prepare your belongings and get ready to disembark."

"Thank you for taking train G10086. Have a pleasant journey!"

The train beneath our feet gradually slowed down and slowly pulled into M City Station. The train's loudspeaker announced that we were about to arrive in M ​​City.

Han Sen opened his eyes and got up to stretch his muscles.

His tall and slender body contained an explosive power that burned intensely, yet under the perfect suppression of his transformation ability, he could control it with ease, without the slightest leakage of energy or any sense of disharmony caused by excessive power.

Following the sparse flow of people out of the station, a modern city came into Hansen's view.

As one of the major cities adjacent to City A, its prosperity far surpasses that of the increasingly desolate City Z.

Skyscrapers stand tall, traffic flows like a river, and pedestrians throng the streets, creating a vibrant and bustling metropolis.

If Han Sen hadn't just emerged from the shady Monster Association, he would have almost thought he had transmigrated into an ordinary, peaceful world.

Of course, the occasional sirens from the street corners and the strange sightings mentioned in the news reminded him that the daily life in this world was not peaceful.

"M City, speaking of which, isn't the legendary 'strongest man on earth' living in this city?"

Han Sen wandered aimlessly through the streets, his thoughts drifting: "It's a pity that my inhuman system can only replicate the extraordinary abilities of non-human beings."

"Otherwise, surely we could at least get some red-tier abilities from King, like 'Strongest Bald Summoner on Earth (UR)' or 'World's Best Luck (UR)'?"

Just as he was lost in thought, a rich and delicious aroma of food quietly wafted into his nostrils.

Han Sen looked up and realized that he had unknowingly walked into a bustling food street, and the aroma was coming from a ramen shop that was packed with customers on the corner.

"The Emperor's Ramen Shop?"

I glanced at the signboard; the name was quite imposing.

After becoming a monster, Hansen no longer needed to replenish his energy through eating.

But as former humans, we still miss this long-lost sense of human warmth and comfort.

His stomach growled at just the right moment, even though he wasn't hungry.

Han Sen stroked his chin and decided to go along with the suggestion.

"After all, I'm playing a human now, so three meals a day are a must."

"I suppose Lady Psykos wouldn't want me to be discovered as a monster because of this small flaw, or even have the existence of the Monster Association exposed?"

Achoo!

In a luxurious apartment on the 22nd floor of downtown M City, a tall, blond man who was playing a visual novel suddenly sneezed. When he looked up, he revealed a dignified face with three scars running through his left eye.

Cold, domineering, fierce...

He is none other than the 7th ranked S-class hero, hailed as "the strongest man on Earth"—

At this moment, King held a game controller in one hand and a paper cup with a straw in the other, muttering to himself with a serious expression, "Strange, I have a feeling that some bad guy is watching me again..."

"Uh, I almost forgot that I'm just an ordinary person, and I don't have the terrifying perception of those anime powerhouses, so I shouldn't make assumptions."

"I don't want to think about it anymore, I'll just continue playing through this new game, 'Summer Rhapsody of Love'!"

He suddenly relaxed halfway through his sentence, all his previous aura of power vanished, and he revealed a perverted, nerdy grin.

"My dearest Ayaka wife, I'm here! Hehehehe~"

A few hours later.

Looking at the shy, half-undressed anime girl on the screen, King sat down on the ground, feeling satisfied but still wanting more.

"Great! I finally won over Ayaka's heart. She's such a kind older sister type girlfriend~~"

"Hehehe, let me see, there are still a few romanceable characters I haven't won over in this game..."

"Miyuki-chan is good, and Angelica-sensei is also good..."

Just as King was enthusiastically selecting his cyber bride, his stomach growled at an inopportune moment.

"Ah, is it already dusk? Time flies when you're playing games; the whole afternoon is gone in a flash."

King skillfully controlled the controller to save the game, then stood up, rubbing his stomach.

"Forget it, let's eat first and figure out the strategy when we get back tonight."

"Thinking about what to have for dinner..."

"I've got it! Ayaka's best dish is ramen, so let's have ramen for dinner tonight to commemorate it!"

As they were talking, King put on his usual light blue sweatshirt, took a baseball cap with the gold lettering "King" on it from the coat rack, and left the apartment in a cheerful mood.

Not long after, King, who was wearing a baseball cap and a hoodie over his sweatshirt, stopped in front of a high-end ramen restaurant.

"Emperor's Ramen Restaurant... I heard that this restaurant's reputation has skyrocketed on the M City food rankings, and it seems that quite a few food bloggers have made videos recommending it."

"Speaking of which, this name... it's not named after my hero, is it... ugh, just thinking about it is embarrassing."

"However, let's choose this one today!"

Chapter 32 The Eccentric - Deluxe Ramen!

Han Sen walked into the ramen shop, and was immediately enveloped by the bustling, smoky atmosphere.

The store was indeed very popular, with almost every seat filled.

The air was filled with the unique aroma of ramen and the slurping sounds of diners, which was very satisfying to hear.

Han Sen casually found an empty seat and sat down. Immediately, a young and energetic female employee came over with a menu.

The moment their eyes met, the young woman was subconsciously drawn to Han Sen's deep black eyes. Lost in thought, steam rose from her head, and her delicate, collagen-rich face quickly flushed red.

"Sir, is there anything I can do for you...?"

Since entering the human world, Han Sen has encountered this situation more than once. It is only natural that his restored appearance has attracted a strange number of women.

This kind of thing is commonplace, and I'm sure every Yanzu here can understand it.

He skillfully took the menu, casually ordered a signature deluxe imperial ramen set meal and a few appetizers, and the waitress returned to the kitchen in a daze, only coming to her senses when she almost bumped her forehead against the counter pillar.

After this little incident, the ramen Han Sen ordered was served.

The soup in the steaming bowl is milky white, the noodles are chewy, and it is topped with a generous amount of lean and fatty char siu pork. It is garnished with bright green scallions and soft-boiled eggs, among other ingredients, making it look very appealing.

Even without the need to eat, Han Sen's appetite was whetted, and he immediately picked up his chopsticks and slurped up the noodles.

In a short while, a large bowl of ramen was gone.

However, given Han Sen's physical condition, the satisfaction derived from this amount of food was clearly far from sufficient.

Just as he called over the shop assistant to continue taking orders, a tall figure opened the shop door and walked in.

The man was wearing a hooded hat, and underneath the hood was a baseball cap, the brim pulled low, almost covering most of his face.

Most striking features are the blond hair in the shadows and the three menacing scars faintly visible around his left eye!
