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

The massive body, once covered in hard scales, had been reduced to a twisted mess of flesh and blood, emitting a nauseating, burnt smell.

Not far from the monster's corpse, several Hero Association staff members cautiously peeked out from behind cover, their faces filled with relief at surviving the ordeal and awe of the immense power.

"No, as expected of Lady 'Tornado of Terror'! She took down several powerful monsters that even A-class heroes couldn't handle in an instant..."

The lead staff member had a fawning smile on his face and was lavish in his praise.

"Amazing……"

The wounded bystanders looked on with adoration, gazing at Tornado as if she were a god.

However, to these praises that she had already heard to death, Tornado simply wrinkled her delicate little nose impatiently: "Hmph, as heroes, shouldn't you at least show some of your worth?"

The simple evaluation left many heroes present feeling ashamed.

They certainly did their best, but some things cannot be accomplished simply by trying or giving their all.

Your Majesty, I truly cannot do it.

With a soft hum, the tornado turned into a streak of green light without looking back and disappeared into the sky before everyone's eyes.

Something is very wrong.

Ever since that fight with that bastard in K City, Tornado has felt something was off about her.

In the past, while easily defeating Demon-level monsters didn't bring her much sense of accomplishment, it at least made her feel a bit better.

But now, let alone feeling relaxed, Tornado felt as if something was weighing on her heart, heavy and she couldn't muster the energy to do anything.

The image of that despicable guy keeps uncontrollably popping into my mind.

That... guy!

Just thinking about Han Sen makes a faint blush creep up Long Juan's usually aloof face.

I almost lost that day's battle...

—No, that's not right!

How could we possibly lose!

—I just... I just don't want to cause any more damage to the city!

—Yes, that's it!

Admit defeat? I would never admit defeat in my entire life!

That despicable guy! How dare he treat me with such a tough attitude, and he even said he liked me...

—Hentai! Baka! Urusa!

Chapter 147 Another day of fantasizing about the boss.

—Pah! Vulgar! Shameless!

Tornado cursed inwardly, but her thoughts, like a wild horse, drifted uncontrollably toward memories that made her blush and her heart race.

The irresistible force and the scorching heat from his palm when he grabbed my wrist.

When he gazed at me with those golden eyes and said "I like you," I felt as if my heart was about to leap out of my throat.

And... when he forcefully pulled me into his arms, that broad, solid chest, and that domineering hand around my waist...

"what--!!"

Tornado shook her head violently, trying to shake these chaotic thoughts out of her mind.

But the more suppressed one is, the clearer those images become.

What's even more infuriating is that after that day, that bastard vanished without a trace, as if he had evaporated from the face of the earth!

She subtly suggested that the association's staff check, only to be told that Han Sen's contact information was not found in the hero database.

Yes, in fact, there are.

Sitch had access to multiple communication records between Hansen and King, but in order to prevent his own ace from going berserk and destroying the base, he decided to suppress this information.

The Hero Association only described him as a "powerful and mysterious strongman with unclear stance" in its incident report in K City, without even providing a clear photograph.

If I can't find anyone, it means I can't arrange a... challenge anymore!

Yes, it's a challenge!

She vowed that next time they met, she would show that guy her true strength!

But... I can't find anyone!

"Han Sen... that bastard... where did he go?"

As the tornado hurtled through the clouds at high speed, it muttered irritably, its voice barely audible to itself.

Her little face was puffed up with anger, like a cat that couldn't find its toy.

But as I thought about it, that feeling of irritability and anger unconsciously changed.

If... if I see him again, if he still dares to... treat me like that...

What should I do myself?

Should we use telekinesis to twist him into eighteen pieces, or...?

Or... should we beat him half to death first, and then listen to what he has to say?

He seems to be... the first man who isn't afraid of himself and even dares to praise himself as "sexy and cute"...

And... his transformed appearance... actually is quite handsome...

The moment the thought crossed her mind, Tornado shuddered as if her tail had been stepped on.

Boom! Crack! Crack! Crack!

The streetlights on several streets in the city we were passing through suddenly exploded at the same time!

Glass shards and metal parts rained down on the ground, causing a brief moment of panic.

"Ah! What happened?"

"Without any warning, could it be a strange attack!"

"Run!"

The pedestrians on the street scattered in panic, completely unaware that the culprit had already transformed into a green shooting star, disappearing into the horizon at several times the speed of before.

Above the clouds, a petite figure, enveloped in flowing light, had a face so red it looked like it was about to bleed.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! What weird things am I thinking?!!!!"

The girl's screams of shame and indignation were completely drowned out by the howling wind.

Unbeknownst to Tornado, amidst each uncontrollable mental turmoil, her once-solid mental defenses were quietly crumbling at a visible pace.

Meanwhile, hundreds of kilometers away.

Evolution House Headquarters Base.

Han Sen was standing in front of rows of huge culture tanks, admiring the magnificent scene before him.

Dr. Genus truly lives up to his reputation as a top-tier villainous scientist; he keeps his word!

From the first batch of ten "mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetles" that passed inspection during the trial operation of the Dragon-level monster mass production base, to the current second batch of products, the quantity has increased tenfold like a rocket.

Hundreds of dragon-level monsters!!

Compared to that, the Monster Assembly, a small meeting with only a dozen or so Dragon-level executives, was completely insignificant in Han Sen's eyes!

As long as we finish before the meeting ends, it's fine; it's a way of giving face to the angel investor and the former top investor, Sykes.

(Psykos, who is hosting a strange gathering in a secret room: Achoo—!!)

"Dr. Genus, thank you for your hard work."

“It is my honor to serve you.” Dr. Genos stood respectfully to the side, a fleeting gleam of the fervor a researcher would show when encountering perfect research material flashing in his eyes. “To be honest, we have been working overtime ever since your last inspection. Fortunately, we have not disappointed you, boss, and have completed the expansion of the production line within the time limit.”

Han Sen looked at the giant, brown insect monsters still dormant in the culture tank and smiled faintly: "I know the Doctor never makes empty promises. Enough with the small talk, let's get to them..."

"Awaken them all!"

The pupils behind the Ginos reflective glasses suddenly contracted, and a bead of cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

Keep in mind, this is a full one hundred Dragon-level calamities!!

Even though it's a genuine, mass-produced, weakened version, it's still enough to truly annihilate a city in an instant!

The composure he had displayed as a top researcher vanished, replaced by a stammering, shocked exclamation: "Excuse me... Boss...!"

"You mean...?!"

"Wake up all of them."

Han Sen repeated his request while stretching his shoulder and arm muscles: "Hurry up, I'm in a rush."

Dr. Genus: "..."

"...As you wish!"

[Defeat 100 Dragon-level monsters "Mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetle" and obtain 6,531,400 Origin Points!]

Compared to the first batch of mass-produced Asura, this batch's final performance has been slightly improved while maintaining production volume, resulting in a stable increase of nearly 10 percentage points in kill rewards after going berserk.

This terrifying level of technical skill left Han Sen in awe once again!

In comparison, the impact of receiving millions of Origin Points in a single transaction is much smaller.

After all, the scene of having to eat half a small target in the previous wave is still fresh in our minds.

The current replenishment of over 650 million yuan hasn't even filled the hole left by the previous wave of consumption, so naturally, people aren't feeling particularly excited.

There's a sense of déjà vu, like someone who's become accustomed to high consumption and high income.

It's exhilarating, but the heightened threshold of pleasure easily quells the lingering feeling of unease.

At this moment, Han Sen twisted his neck, and the shadow beneath him wriggled and leaped, as hundreds of black light shadows disappeared into it from all directions like weary birds returning to their nests.

On the other hand, witnessing his boss instantly transform into millions of beings—a visual illusion caused by ordinary people's eyesight—and then force hundreds of mass-produced Asuras to go berserk and kill them, Dr. Genus was completely bewildered.

There's a sense of helplessness, like I've spent my whole life studying dogs.

Another day of fantasizing about the boss.JPG

Chapter 148 Evolutionary Cells

Han Sen calmly glanced at Dr. Genus, who was habitually lewd and lustful towards him, his eyes containing a hint of encouragement.

If you work even harder and break through production limits, maybe if I'm in a good mood, I'll actually draw some blood and let you study it?

At that moment, Dr. Genus seemed to awaken his telepathic superpowers on his own, and shuddered for no apparent reason.

Almost instantly, he adjusted his glasses, trying to calm his excitement, and said, "Boss, the gains over the past two weeks are not limited to this..."

"Boss, the 'Evolutionary Cell' version 1.0 we envisioned has been successfully released!"

Although his mood was at an all-time high, Han Sen, who was already used to such things, calmly nodded: "Very good, lead the way!"

Before long, the alloy door of the mass production laboratory, now renamed "Evolutionary Cells," slid open, revealing the familiar large cylindrical culture tank inside.

Similar to the previous mass production base for Dragon-level monsters, this place has also been expanded, but only a few large cultivation tanks have been added.

First, there's the issue of production capacity.

Secondly, the upgrade from "monster cell" to "evolutionary cell" is strictly speaking a qualitative change, while the space occupied is similar to that before.

With the current production lines and storage space, filling them up quickly is not an easy task.

Inside the jar, twisted chunks of flesh, radiating an eerie purple light, throbbed with disgusting tentacles, exuding an alluring and corrupting aura.

The function of the 1.0 version of "Evolution Cell" is self-evident. Han Sen only refined a few pieces in a short time and found that each piece generated about 1500 Origin Points.

The average source point value of the House of Evolution version of "Monster Cell" is around 140 points, which is more than ten times the improvement compared to the previous version, and there is still performance surplus!

Dr. Genos's consistently conservative estimate.JPG

The number of "evolutionary cells" produced in this batch has exceeded 4000 after half a month of accumulation. At first glance, this is not a small number, but to fill the large culture tank here would be a huge project that would take years.

“The advantage of ‘Evolution Cells’ is that they can preserve the user’s sanity to the greatest extent,” Dr. Genus said with a sigh, as if introducing one of his most perfect creations. “Theoretically, even a Tiger-level monster with its potential limit reached will almost certainly undergo a second mutation and become a Demon-level monster after consuming or consuming them multiple times.”
