Ren went up to the fourth floor and saw through the Eye of Delusion that Saitama was not at home.
I saw an advertisement on the road, today's supermarket sale...
The bald man didn't care much about anything else, except the special sales in the supermarket, which made him want to stop.
Ren was speechless and walked to the door next to Saitama's residence. His palm was filled with starlight and he placed it on the keyhole to feel its internal structure.
"Treon."
As he chanted, the blue star energy gathered in the palm of his hand and solidified into a key.
Click~
Renn inserted the key into the door, turned it gently, and pushed the door open.
This is the house next door to Saitama's house. The interior is a bit empty, with a little dust on the floor. Most of the valuable furniture and objects have been moved away, but some tables, chairs, and sofas are still left.
The bed was also there, but the quilt was moldy and some daily necessities were expired.
Renn pressed the switch on the wall, and the light bulb on the ceiling flashed a few times, then came on.
Although it is called no man's land, water, electricity and natural gas are all still supplied in this area, and the rent is very low, even zero.
After all, no landlord dares to come and collect rent.
You may encounter tiger-level or ghost-level monsters wherever you go. Even some powerful S-level heroes may not be able to live peacefully in this no-man's land, let alone ordinary people.
There was a bit of musty smell in the air, so Ren opened the window and waved his palm lightly.
Swish~
A blue whirlwind of energy flowed through every corner of the room, and as the light swept by, all the dust and dirt disappeared, as if it had been wiped dozens of times.
All the dirty things were rolled into a ball by the flowing blue light and flew out of the window.
Ren stood by the window, looking at the blue sky, and for some reason thought of his mother.
The memory is a bit blurry. In my impression, my mother was very verbose and she especially liked to plan his future.
He was only in junior high school at that time, and she often said that you should study hard, get admitted to XX University, find a good job, and buy a commercial house somewhere in the suburbs of the city...
Ren smiled and shook his head, with some emotion on his face, and said:
"In a dangerous world where weirdos are rampant, there are free houses to live in, and there is peace and prosperity in singing and dancing, but people can't afford houses.
Which of these two is more ironic? "
"Both of these are pathological conditions and neither are normal." A cold and sweet female voice sounded.
Under the sunlight, the shadow behind Renn squirmed, and a graceful figure appeared in the purple light.
She has a charming snow-white face, a tall, plump figure, and a head of purple hair that almost falls to her knees like a waterfall.
Anna (Medusa), from the moon world, is Renne's personal maid and contract elf.
She can freely switch between physical and spiritual forms, usually residing in his shadow.
(Medusa is not immune to physical attacks when she is in the spirit state, but her breath is more hidden, so ordinary people cannot see and perceive her.)
Ren smiled and said, "Why did you run out by yourself?"
Ana crossed her arms, stared at him with her beautiful ice-blue eyes, pursed her sexy red lips, and said:
"Cleaning, buying daily necessities, doing laundry and cooking. Is it possible that you can do these tasks?"….
Renn: "..."
Makes sense.
Since taking in this maid, almost all trivial matters and daily things have been left to her.
Ren leaned against the window sill and shrugged:
"Then please, please clean up the house. Although the dust has been cleaned, it still needs to be tidied up if you want to live in it."
"I know, my lazy and shameless master." Anna pouted, "Besides washing and cooking, serving tea, pouring water, and heating the bed...is there no other work for me? I'm not that good."
Ren laughed dumbly and said: "Yes, don't worry, you will be busy in the future, you are my right-hand man, but before that, let's do the housework first."
Anna: "..."
After talking for a long time, he was still not a handyman.
Medusa, the gorgon, is not a vase, and she won't just beat up monsters below the dragon level.
"Don't look like you're not satisfied with your desires."
Renn walked over and pinched Anna's cheek, earning a somewhat disgusted look from the maid.
He didn't care, he snapped his fingers again, and seven or eight blue swirling space doors opened behind him.
Buckets, mops, quilts, toothpaste and toothbrushes, refrigerators and microwaves and other daily necessities flew out from the space door.
He once spent hundreds of millions of dollars on shopping in Fuyuki City, so his "Infinite Arms" contains many modern urban daily necessities, including motorcycles and Ferraris.
Anna complained, but she immediately took action, picked up the mop and bucket and went to the bathroom.
Time flew by and two hours passed.
After some cleaning by the maid Anna, the house looked much cleaner and tidier.
"We need to join the Heroes Association as soon as possible."
Ren was lying on the sofa, folding his hands behind his head and looking up at the ceiling.
There are two ways to join the Heroes Association.
The first is to take the initiative to participate in the hero assessment test, and the second is to kill extremely powerful monsters multiple times, and the Hero Association takes the initiative to send invitations.
The only person who became a hero through the second method was King, the luckiest man on earth.
Because he appeared near the monsters killed by Saitama more than five times in a row, people mistakenly thought that he had killed those powerful monsters.
It is not easy to be actively invited. Normal people still have to take the initiative to participate in the hero assessment test.
After thinking about it for a while, Ren decided to take the exam and took the bald head along with him.
Think of it as cultivating revolutionary friendship.
…………
at dusk.
On the horizon, fiery red clouds seemed to be burning, making the silent no-man's land look even more shabby.
Saitama walked slowly from the end of the street carrying a bag of vegetables and the cheapest special meat. His face was expressionless, with a salty fish look, and his appearance was almost featureless except for his bald head. He didn't look like a strong man at all. style.
He came to the fourth floor, took out the key with ease, and was about to open the door.
But at this moment, there was movement from next door, which stunned him for a moment.
"Huh?"
Saitama was a little surprised and turned his head to look at the next room.
Why is there any movement here? Someone... No, it's probably a weirdo.
Trouble, after you die, you have to clean up the blood.
Not long after, the door was pushed open. When Ren saw the bald man standing at the door, he pretended to be "surprised" and said: ....
"Hey, there are other people living here."
Humanity?
Saitama was a little confused, scratched his bright forehead, and asked:
"Who are you?"
"I'm a writer who writes thrillers and weird stories."
Renn explained seriously: "I've been running out of inspiration recently and can't write a word. I heard that this is a ghost town, so I came here to experience it and find inspiration."
Saitama: "..."
So dedicated... No, it sounds very laid-back.
Maybe it was because he had lived alone for too long. Saitama didn't know how to answer the conversation, so he just followed the topic and said:
"It's amazing that you can write at such a young age."
Pure awkward chat.
Ren didn't care about the awkward atmosphere, and sighed: "It's just so so. Recently, readers in Kavin have been sending me razor blades out of anger. I come here to stay away from the limelight."
Saitama: "..."
No, are today’s readers so irritable?
Sure enough, it is not easy for all walks of life these days. Even writing is at risk of being hacked to death.
It seems that he was right not to go out to find a job...
Saitama sighed, and even
Jia firmly decided not to look for a job.
It is impossible to work part-time, not even in this life.
"My name is Renn. I will live here for a while. Please give me your advice." Renn said with a smile.
"Oh, I'm Saitama, please give me some advice."
Saitama, who was a little distracted, subconsciously replied.
Ren didn't say anything more, smiled, and closed the door.
Saitama vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put it in words, so he scratched his head, and finally walked into his house carrying bags of vegetables and special-priced meat.
A neighbor suddenly came, and he was quite uncomfortable with it.
I have lived alone for so long that I have forgotten how to get along with my neighbors. Fortunately, they are not too nagging...
………
Next door, the maid Anna wore an apron and brought fragrant rice and dishes to the table.
Seeing him closing the door so quickly and retreating, she looked a little surprised:
"What's going on? Didn't you say we need to have a good relationship?"
Ren sat on the dining table, picked up a piece of braised pork, and said:
"Don't be in a hurry. It's your first time meeting. Don't be too enthusiastic. The other person is still a homebody. If you are too wordy or say anything about visiting his home or being a guest, it will only offend people."
Being afraid of trouble is a common problem among homebodies.
Even if Saitama has almost invincible strength, he is no exception.
This kind of people often don't like someone suddenly breaking into their lives, and they hate strangers running into their homes.
Genos was given a cold reception by Baldhead at first.
[Summarize it for me in twenty words or less! ]This classic saying was born from this.
While grabbing the rice, Ren said, "Maybe if I don't disturb him these days, his favorability will increase a few points."
[Saitama's favorability level +2, now 52 points. ]
Renn: "..."
He only said three words during this meeting, not to mention the visit. Sure enough, he won the bald head's favor.
The initial value of favorability is generally 50 points. The higher it goes, the harder it is to gain it. Especially Saitama's favorability is more difficult to increase than ordinary people.
I have become bald and become stronger, this is Saitama's famous saying. ….
At the same time, as a price, his emotions became weaker and weaker, almost losing emotions such as fear and fear.
It is easy to get fifty or sixty points of favorability from Saitama, because he is an upright person and will not dislike someone for no reason. However, to achieve the 85 points of favorability required for side missions, a certain amount of skills and management are required.
In this regard, Lei also has a strategy.
He confidently said: "Don't rush, just take your time."
Maid Anna rolled her eyes and said:
"Your emotional intelligence is getting better now. If you were so tactful earlier, you wouldn't have stayed single for twenty years."
Renn: "..."
(￣,￣;)
Can you please stop mentioning the bad things from the past?
Being a fool when you are young does not mean that you will be a fool all your life. People will grow up.
On the second and third day after moving to the no-man's land, Ren didn't bother his next-door neighbor Saitama. He only said hello a few times when he met him.
Sure enough, Saitama's favorability increased by 3 points.
Don't bother me, you're a good neighbor, that's about it.
In the past few days, apart from shopping and decorating his house, Renn has been reading newspapers, magazines and watching TV news.
He wanted to make sure what time it was.
"The dragon-level monster Elder Centipede was defeated by explosions." This was news 2 years ago.
"The metal bat enters S-level and gets a special weapon." This was news a year ago.
"Warm congratulations on the third anniversary of the founding of the Heroes Association." This was news not long ago.
"If nothing else, the plot is about to begin." After reading many news reports, Renn roughly knew what time it was.
There is no vaccine man, giant brother, city D and city B are destroyed
The news indicates that the plot has not started yet, but it is expected to be soon.
Kesha: [A dragon-level monster appeared in City A. Do you want to practice your skills? ]
Renn: "..."
Wouldn't he be a vaccine person?
[Think, be there soon! ]
Ren replied to the message and stood up excitedly. The three-day silence period had passed and he could speak.
"Ana, Shoujia, I'll be back as soon as I go."
He gave instructions to the maid, opened the window, and jumped!
boom!
Ren jumped into the air, and blue light burst out from his body, like a rocket propelling him. He turned into a blue rainbow light and quickly cut through the sky, heading straight for City A!
On the balcony, Saitama, who was watering the potted plants with a kettle, looked up and looked a little surprised:
"Can you fly?"
It’s no surprise that Lane is no ordinary person.
No matter how rough the lines were, he knew that ordinary people couldn't live in no man's land.
But it can fly, what is the principle?
Saitama was a little puzzled and simply stopped thinking. His curiosity was not strong. He lay back on the tatami, resting his chin on his hand, watching TV.
Not long after, an urgent news message suddenly appeared on the TV.
In the trembling TV screen, a reporter said with a somewhat frightened voice:
"A terrible explosion suddenly occurred in City A. The scope of the explosion continued to expand, and the whole city seemed to be shaking..."
"Let's go there."
Inside the room, Saitama's eyes narrowed, he stood up and walked to the closet.
He didn't connect Ren's previous flight with this incident, so he dispatched as usual.
During the past few days of contact, Ren also said that he was still a wandering swordsman, but Saitama did not connect him with fighting monsters. ….
…………
City A.
This city is the center of the supercontinent, much more prosperous than City Z, and the headquarters of the Heroes Association is here.
Because of the existence of the Heroes Association, the security situation here is actually pretty good.
But today, City A was attacked, and it was still a very violent attack.
Bang bang bang! !
Blue energy bombs fell from the sky. In a corner of the city, high-rise buildings collapsed and exploded, igniting flames and smoke. Streets were destroyed, and many people were killed in the rubble.
The building collapsed, kicking up endless dust, and people screamed and called for help.
The attack was so sudden that many people didn't even understand what was happening.
After a while, the wave of energy bombs ended, leaving only a devastated neighborhood with broken walls and potholed roads everywhere.
Among the ruins, a tall and mighty figure stepped out.
This is a bald man with pointed ears, two snail-like tentacles on his forehead, blue skin all over his body, and strong muscles like steel. His tough facial contours are devoid of any emotion, and his eyes are cold and ruthless.
Dozens of blue-white energy bombs were floating around him, and the turbulent energy fluctuations were frightening.
"No, this weirdo is too strong, we may not be a match."
The A-class hero Smiling Superman said with a solemn expression.
He wears a gold belt and a red-brown hero uniform, uses a huge kendama as his weapon, and has a smile symbol on his chest and belt.
"If you can't, go ahead anyway. His destructive power is too strong and we can't just let it go."
A-class hero Lightning Max broke into cold sweat on his forehead and gritted his teeth.
They are not newcomers. Looking at the destructive power, this blue-skinned bald monster may be a dragon-level monster. The two of them are probably no match.
But it’s okay if we don’t go up. When the S-class heroes arrive, I’m afraid a few more blocks will be destroyed.
"Don't hesitate, rush!"
The two A-level heroes with a sense of justice looked at each other, suppressed some of the anxiety in their hearts, and rushed towards the blue-skinned weirdo.
The vaccine man was standing on the top of the ruins, showing off his power, and saw someone
The man rushed towards him, raised his hand, and a dozen blue energy bombs flew past him!
Phew!
It was so fast that the blue light almost touched their faces in the blink of an eye. The two A-level heroes, Smiling Superman and Lightning Max, had no time to avoid it. They were horrified and subconsciously raised their hands to block their eyes.
It's over.
Uh-huh!
At this moment, a meteor streaked down from the sky and swept the two of them away!
Bang bang bang!
A dozen blue-blazing energy bombs then fell, and explosions continued on the ground. The billowing smoke and dust spread with the expanding flames!
"Um?"
The vaccine man was startled and looked to the open space to one side.
The light wings behind Ren's back converged, and they landed on the ground. He let go of his hand, and the two A-class heroes whose shoulders he grabbed landed on the ground.
They didn't seem to have recovered yet, looking confused.
"Who are you?"
Lightning Max looked at the young man with black hair and blue eyes in front of him. He was sure he didn't recognize him. He looked surprised. Seeing him walking towards the blue-skinned weirdo, he quickly shouted, "Wait, don't go there..."
This person doesn't seem to be from the Heroes Association.
Ren stepped forward, his gray windbreaker swaying. He turned his head and glanced, saying:….
"Young man, stay away, I'm going to carry out justice."
Lightning Max: "..."
You look younger.
Smiling Superman: "..."
You don't seem to be a hero.
A-class hero Lightning Max wanted to say something else, but Smiling Superman pulled him and pointed to the large smoke-filled pits next to him that had been blasted by energy bombs.
"He is not an ordinary person, at least he is better than us."
Looking at the huge crater that looked like a few landmines, Lightning Max swallowed.
Darling, it's a good thing I wasn't hit just now. Otherwise, the body would have been lying in the infirmary for several days.
Renn walked towards the vaccine man and his face twitched a few times when he saw the weirdo's appearance.
The Vaccine Man's face has a proper Namekian look, and it feels like Piccolo from the Dragon Ball world next door has walked into the wrong set.
As if feeling the power of the man in trench coat in front of him, the vaccine man straightened up and asked, "Who are you?"
The windbreaker moved with the wind. Renn blinked his eyes and said:
"I am a passing knight."
"A passing knight? What kind of identity is this?"
The Vaccine Man sneered and began to introduce himself, "I was born as a Vaccine Man because you humans continue to pollute the environment. My existence is to eradicate the virus called 'Humanity' from its roots, and at the same time erase the harmful civilization you created. ..."
As he spoke, the vaccine man's voice gradually grew louder, and finally roared with full anger.
Ren said: "It is indeed wrong to destroy the environment. There is only one earth, which is our hometown."
"Oh, it's rare to meet a sensible person." The vaccine man raised his eyebrows and said, "You can kill yourself."
"What?"
"I asked you to commit suicide to give you a decent way to die."
Ren stared with dead eyes and said, "That's not okay. I don't have the habit of taking advantage of others."
"You want to resist me? Resist the will of the earth?!"
"No, we won't talk about environmental protection today. I just want to beat you to death, or be beaten to death by you."
"Asshole, you're looking for death!"
Hearing this, the Vaccine Man became angry, clenched his fists, and the blue energy bombs around him expanded, and hit Renn like a blue meteorite rain!
. .
The flow of time
