Chapter 4

Chapter 4

The Esper ability of Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero was that after eating hot and sour rice noodles, he could temporarily possess ten times the physical ability of an ordinary person.

Not just his strength, but his speed and defense would also be greatly improved. If not for that, he could easily end up breaking his own bones with a single punch.

It was hard to imagine that the energy from a bowl of hot and sour rice noodles could cause a human’s body to explode with such power, but this was an Esper ability.

They were hard to understand with normal logic.

Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero’s muscles were tightly wrapped by his combat suit. Because of the explosiveness of his ability, his height had expanded to 2.2-meters. His arms were as thick as an ordinary person’s thighs, and his muscles were bulging all over.

He pointed at the Cyclops Predator which had just crawled out of the Black Cavity with a finger as thick as a carrot, and his lips curled up into a lopsided ‘Nike’ smile. “With me Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero here, you will never be allowed to destroy Deer Harbor City!”

The Cyclops Predator looked like a giant octopus, except that its tentacles were more like spider claws, black and sharp.

The most horrifying part was the eye that occupied half of its head. This eye had no eyelids, and the entire eyeball was exposed.

Due to the provocation of Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero, the Cyclops Predator shifted its gaze from the crowd to his side, the 18 Spider Pikes on its body swaying rhythmically.

Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero thought to himself, “Looks like this fellow has locked onto me.”

Not only did the Cyclops Predator have a strong defense, but it also had abnormal close-combat abilities. Under the coordination of its 18 Spider Pikes, it was a very troublesome opponent.

Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero held his ground and quietly observed his opponent’s aura.

“Senior Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero!”

A red flame streaked across the sky. The Grade-C Hero, Blazing Butterfly had rushed to the battlefield in time, with a pair of flaming wings on her back. She was actually here for a manicure session, but who knew that a Mystic Beast would appear near Silver Imperial Tower the moment she removed her old nails.

Blazing Butterfly was one of the few Heroes who could fly in Deer Harbor City. She could often rush to support other Heroes, so she quickly became a Grade-C Hero not long after graduation.

“Perfect timing. I’ll hold him back later. Blazing Butterfly, you’re in charge of attacking!”

Blazing Butterfly nodded. “Alright, Senior!”

Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero knew that there was a time limit to his abilities. Since a helper came, he didn’t hesitate anymore. He stomped on the ground, and spider-web-like cracks appeared on the ground. His body shot towards the Cyclops Predator on the fourth floor like a missile.

Sensing the oncoming threat, Cyclops Predator immediately pointed its 18 Spider Pikes in the direction of Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero.

“Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero has chosen to take the initiative to attack!!! Everyone, cheer for the hero!”

A livestream robot had already appeared at the scene. Its shape was similar to that of a drone, and it was equipped with ultra-high-definition cameras. It also had the ability to play back videos.

At this moment, on Planet Azure’s Battle Cats TV platform, the popularity of ‘Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero VS Cyclops Predator’ in Deer Harbor City had already surpassed 5 million viewers.

Notwithstanding the high popularity of Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero, the rarity of the Cyclops Predator also caused the livestream’s popularity to skyrocket.

“Holy shit, it’s actually the Cyclops Predator! There are a total of 18 Spider Pikes, how cool and handsome!!!”

On Planet Azure, even Mystic Beasts had fans. As they did not break any laws, no one could do anything to these Mystic Beasts fanatics.

This user “Lemon Man” and his followers directly gifted a giant treasured sword in the livestream. However, it attracted the criticism of most of the netizens.

After all, the mainstream concept was to cheer on Heroes.

“There must be something wrong with this person’s brain. No matter how handsome the Mystic Beast is, it is still an enemy. Of course I have to cheer Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero on!”

“The ones who gifted the sword are idiots. Identification complete.”

“The one who said that the Mystic Beast is handsome is already an orphan. Everyone, take pity on him and let him reunite with his family as soon as possible!”

“…”

Such a scene of noisy and chaotic comments were normal occurrences. The host of this livestream was the anchor of Deer Harbor City’s television station, “Hat Emperor”. It was said that before the Hero livestream, he was a basketball player. The title of Hat Emperor was given because his basketball shots were always blocked by others

“Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero is a close-combat type Hero. Now, he plans to approach the Mystic Beast with his own jumping strength. Apart from the fact that the position that the Mystic Beast’s Black Cavity was opened was tricky, he also wants to prevent the battle from happening on the ground! Traffic is already paralyzed, and it will still take some time for people to evacuate!”

Coach Ge was actually a professional Hero. But because of his old age, he’d retired and was now livestreaming with Hat Emperor, gaining fame from his sharp tongue and criticizing ability.

“When Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero first debuted, he was a very crafty character. Because he needed to finish an entire bowl of hot and sour rice noodles to activate his ability, he usually only jumped out to snatch the kill after other Heroes had used up a lot of the strength of the Mystic Beasts.”

As expected of Coach Ge, he was always able to reveal some secrets that no one knew about. However, it was expected for Coach Ge to be a loose-tongued and coarse character. Because of his words, he often had to apologize on the promotional page. One only had to believe half of whatever words came out of his mouth. After all, when he was a professional Hero, he did not have any outstanding achievements at all. He only became popular after he switched to doing Hero commentary.

“What Coach Ge said makes a lot of sense. This time, from the appearance of the Mystic Beast to the emergence of Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero in such a short period of time, I reckon that at that time, Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero must have just happened to be eating a bowl of hot and sour rice noodles!”

Coach Ge’s nostrils flared. “My a*s! This kid must hate hot and sour rice noodles the most! Think about it, every time he finishes eating it, it means that he has to go all out! No matter how much he likes it, it’s tasteless.”

“I’m guessing that someone happened to be eating it at the side. This kid is snatching other people’s hot and sour rice noodles again.”

After Coach Ge said that, the bullet screen was filled with “It’s me, I’m at the scene. My hot and sour rice noodles were snatched by Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero. I strongly request for the Hero Association to compensate me with a coupon of 50 cents off for every 1000 dollars spent!”

The livestream room was extremely lively, but the people at the venue were terrified.

They usually only watched such scenes on livestreams. But now, they were actually so close to a Mystic Beast. Those with heart disease were already taking medicine.

Due to the fact that a popular tea shop had just opened for business in the mall, their store had a lot of people lining up. Therefore, the first floor of Silver Imperial Tower was very crowded.

Yang Xi deliberately separated from Fan Peng and Lin Naixue. When the crowd was frantically rushing to hide in the underground shelter, he moved upwards instead. Avoiding the cameras, he came to a shop selling cosplay costumes. This place happened to be on the same level as the Mystic Beast. It was the best spot to watch from.

“This is the Cyclops Predator?” Yang Xi stroked his chin and activated Brain Overload.

Under the effects of Brain Overload, his eyesight was enhanced, and it was at this time that Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero activated his ultimate skill, Peanut Air Blast.

Peanut Air Blast is one of the few mid-range attacks that Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero uses to attack his enemies. It was an attack formed with the condensed air blasts produced by rapid punches.

While moving at high speed, Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero suddenly opened up the arms that were crossed in front of his chest!

“Ha!”

Along with the Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero’s loud cry, a burst of peanut-shaped air streamed towards the Cyclops Predator.

However, in the face of this attack, the Cyclops Hunter merely tapped against the wall with the smallest Spider Pike on its right side, and its entire body shot out like a ghost, moving behind Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero.

Peanut Air Blast left a two-meter-long peanut-shaped gap on Silver Imperial Tower’s outer wall. Through it, one could see the interior decoration.

“So fast! This fellow’s speed is unexpectedly swift!”

Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero quickly adjusted his body in the air and threw a kick at the enemy.

The whip leg connected with a Spider Pike, releasing a muffled noise.

“What shocking hardness!”

Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero was very confident in his own strength. He had met many opponents, and could basically penetrate all his opponent’s defense with just his fists. But against this Cyclops Predator, his punches and kicks could only leave shallow white marks on it.

Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero’s brows were teemed with steaming sweat as he breathed heavily.

“This is going to be tricky!”
