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 hisbat 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 ck 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 ws, ck and sharp.


    The most horrifying part was the eye that upied 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 closebat 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 me streaked across the sky. The Grade-C Hero, zing Butterfly had rushed to the battlefield in time, with a pair of ming 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.


    zing 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 backter. zing Butterfly, you’re in charge of attacking!”


    zing 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 oing 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 simr to that of a drone, and it was equipped with ultra-high-definition cameras. It also had the ability to y back videos.


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


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


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


    On Azure, even Mystic Beasts had fans. As they did not break anyws, 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 theizens.


    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. Identificationplete.”


    “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 chaoticments were normal urrences. 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 yer. The title of Hat Emperor was given because his basketball shots were always blocked by?others


    .


    “Hot and Sour Rice Noodles Hero is a closebat type Hero. Now, he ns to approach the Mystic Beast with his own jumping strength. Apart from the fact that the position that the Mystic Beast’s ck 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 popr after he switched to doing Heromentary.


    “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 red. “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 topensate me with a coupon of 50 cents off for every 1000 dors 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 popr 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 cosy costumes. This ce 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 st.


    Peanut Air st 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 sts 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 st 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 prate 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!”
