Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 622: I want to join, what do you think?

"Come forth and recount your sins."

The black-robed monster raised its hand, and the numerous eyes on its arm began to rotate wildly. Immediately, several buses flew out of the sky, crashing behind the group.

Quickly, a large number of strange creatures emerged from these buses.

These creatures swiftly blocked the group's retreat, working with the buses to completely cut off any escape. They then began to laugh cruelly, their bloodshot eyes revealing their barely contained bloodlust.

"Are… are we surrounded?"

The timid Ground Dragon instinctively gripped her shovel upon witnessing this scene.

"Yes, I have been waiting here for you." The black-robed monster opposite them laughed hoarsely, seemingly sensing their fear. "Your lives will be mine…"

"Trouble. It's actually this guy."

But before the monster could finish speaking, Fang Mo suddenly said in a grave tone, "This guy's ability is really troublesome…"

The nearby TankTop Master was astonished. "What ability is it that even you find troublesome?"

"He's a dragon-level monster… the Anus Eye."

Fang Mo's expression turned serious. "It's said that he has a bizarre collecting fetish, attaching items from dead monsters and humans to himself to increase his power. When he gets serious, he sprays excrement everywhere. He's the most difficult enemy to deal with."

"What… what?"

Both TankTop Master and Pig God were taken aback by this revelation.

However, the others present, including Armored Gorilla, Ancient One, and Xiao Yao who had read the original story, all held their foreheads, knowing Fang Mo was spouting nonsense again.

"How could such a grotesque monster exist…"

Nonetheless, TankTop Master, not knowing the truth, looked at the enemy with pure disgust.

This gaze seemed to provoke the monster further. It suddenly erupted with a chilling, dreadful aura.

"How dare you slander me in this way…"

The black-robed monster, seething with rage, spread its hands, revealing numerous eyeballs underneath the robe.

"Look at these eyes on me; they all belonged to the monsters killed by your Hero Association!" The monster roared, "Lord Gyoro Gyoro transplanted them onto me. Through their dying grudges, I evolved from a weak psychic to my current form. We share our honor and disgrace! Now… It's time to avenge our shame. Your lives will be taken by me, Evil Eye!"

With that, Evil Eye swung both hands.

The sound of buildings collapsing filled the air. The skyscrapers on both sides of the street were suddenly torn apart by immense force. Several buildings rose into the air, partially obscuring the sky.

"So it's Evil Eye?"

Despite the buildings flying through the air, TankTop Master seemed relieved. "I thought there couldn't be such a grotesque monster in the world."

"Die!"

Evil Eye suddenly swung his hand down, and the buildings plummeted towards the group.

Ancient One made a hand gesture, instantly freezing all the buildings in mid-air. No matter how hard Evil Eye tried, he couldn't move them an inch.

"Is that all?"

Fang Mo laughed, turning to chat with Xiao Yao, "Aren't characters who collect eyeballs supposed to be comic relief?"

"They're not too bad. At least he knows how to use buildings to crush people."

Xiao Yao crossed her arms, "He's better than Danzo next door, who tried to stab Susanoo with kunai…"

Seeing the two chatting nonchalantly in front of him, Evil Eye fell silent.

But soon, as if thinking of something, he let out a sinister laugh. "Heh, ignoring me, are you? Then I'll gouge out your eyes…"

However, before he could finish, there was a loud bang, and his body was blown apart, leaving a gaping hole.

"Huh?"

Fang Mo was surprised since he hadn't made a move yet. Turning around, he saw that it was Xiao Yao who had attacked.

Xiao Yao held a white particle gun, glaring at Evil Eye. Without waiting for him to recover, she fired several more shots, cursing, "Call me short again, will you?"

These shots seemed to anger Evil Eye even more.

"Fool!!!"

Evil Eye's body twisted, emerging from the remnants of his robe. Though clearly injured, he roared furiously, "You think you can kill a being of evil thoughts like me? Die!"

With that, he increased his psychic output.

The road ahead was suddenly ripped up, and the debris hurtled towards the group. TankTop Master prepared for battle.

But before he could move, laser-like beams shot out.

This time, the power was overwhelming. With a loud bang, the ground shook, and a small mushroom cloud rose.

"???"

Fang Mo was stunned, glancing at Xiao Yao. He saw a quantum ring hovering like a crown above her head.Thê sourc𝗲 of this conte/nt n/o/v/(𝒆l)bi((n))

As she raised her hand, ripples appeared in the air, followed by beams of light shooting out like the Gate of Babylon from Gilgamesh.

However, instead of treasures, these beams were energy. Fang Mo, not well-read, couldn't tell if it was lasers or particle cannons. As she attacked, small mushroom clouds continuously rose ahead, creating an indiscriminate carpet bombing.

This wasn't just a threat to Evil Eye and the other monsters.

Even the land ahead was reduced by several meters.

Minutes later, when the explosions ceased, the area ahead was flattened, all buildings and monsters obliterated.

"Alright, done."

Xiao Yao stopped attacking, looking refreshed as she returned to Fang Mo's side.

"…What was that?"

Fang Mo looked at her, puzzled. "Aren't you supposed to be a combat idiot? You just easily defeated a dragon-level monster. Also, was that quantum ring attack something else, like a Tesla helmet?"

"I did some research while building the assembly line."

Xiao Yao explained casually, "That wasn't a Tesla ray. It was a laser. I wrote a simple program for the quantum ring, converting atoms to an excited state and adjusting the photon emission angle when electrons transitioned to a lower energy state… then I could shoot lasers."

"…Huh?"

Fang Mo looked utterly baffled.

"Don't understand?" Xiao Yao glanced at him, explaining again, "Think of the quantum ring as magical programming… Have you played Noita?"

"Oh, I've heard of that."

Fang Mo nodded. It's a pixel sandbox game where players can create various spells with impressive effects.

"It's similar to that game."

Xiao Yao waved her hand, "I can program the quantum ring to charge, calibrate, and focus atoms… then produce lasers."

"Oh, I see."

Fang Mo didn't really understand but gave a thumbs up anyway, "Impressive."

"I'm not great at close combat, which I know well." Xiao Yao, seemingly unaware of Fang Mo's confusion, proudly puffed out her chest. "So I changed my combat strategy… As a techie, I shouldn't be fighting with weapons up close or at range."

"So what should you do?"

Fang Mo asked curiously.

"Cover an area with indiscriminate firepower, destroying everything in sight."

Xiao Yao replied without hesitation, "If they don't die, the firepower isn't strong enough. Just keep piling it on. In range, I am the truth. For minions, use laser cannons; for tougher foes, use particle cannons, positron cannons, annihilation fields, degenerate matter sub-light kinetic weapons… If all else fails, learn to make dimensional cutters from the Trisolarans and throw one at the enemy."

"…"

Fang Mo was silent for a while, finally saying, "Impressive."

After dealing with Evil Eye.

The group, though surprised by Xiao Yao's power, accepted it quickly upon learning she was Fang Mo's partner.

Without further delay, they moved toward the Monster Association's entrance.

Along the way, more monsters appeared. This time led by the colossal Rhino Wrestler.

However, this monster had a peculiar trait. He enjoyed taking enemy attacks and then scoring them, which was rather abnormal. He first knocked Ground Dragon away, then took a punch from Armored Gorilla, and gleefully scored himself.

Soon.

He noticed Fang Mo's group.

Recognizing the S-class heroes from the association, Rhino Wrestler invited TankTop Master to attack him for scoring.

TankTop Master charged, and Rhino Wrestler couldn't withstand even a second, exploding in a bloody mess.

This gruesome scene scared the other monsters, who fled.

Fang Mo considered using this opportunity to level up his Iron Fist, but Xiao Yao stopped him, saying the assembly line was almost done, making it unnecessary to chase experience.

Since his partner said so.

Fang Mo didn't bother with the trash.

Under normal circumstances, he might have revived Rhino Wrestler for scoring, but now he was eager to return to the MC world and didn't want to waste time.

Soon.

They arrived at a tunnel entrance.

"This is it?"

TankTop Master examined the tunnel's structure, with a staircase extending downward. "The monsters fled here; let's follow."

"Wait."

Fang Mo stopped TankTop Master, looking up, "Someone's coming."

"Hmm?"

TankTop Master looked up and saw several winged eyeballs. "What kind of monster is that? Doesn't seem threatening…"

These weren't monsters but the scout versions of the Monster Association's strategist, Gyoro Gyoro. Recognizing this meant Gyoro Gyoro was aware of their presence.

"Hello there."

Since they were spotted, Fang Mo didn't hide, waving and greeting the eyeball. "Auntie Eye, I'm here to visit."

"?"

The large eyeball in the air seemed confused.

But soon.

It descended slowly.

"S-class hero of the Hero Association, Priest." The eyeball spoke, despite lacking a mouth. "Also, S-class TankTop Master, Sorcerer Supreme… and the 'Doctor's' agents. Welcome to the Monster Association. I'm the strategist, Gyoro Gyoro."

"Uh."

Fang Mo raised his hand, asking, "I have a question. I heard the monsters think highly of you… Can you answer it?"

"…What is it?"

Gyoro Gyoro looked at Fang Mo, confused.

Despite investigating the Hero Association, this guy was a mystery, as if he appeared out of nowhere. So Gyoro Gyoro couldn't understand his intentions.

"What do you think of my strength?"

Fang Mo stroked his chin, seemingly very concerned about this question.

"…Your strength is indeed formidable."

Gyoro Gyoro, not understanding Fang Mo's question, cautiously responded, "You defeated the martial arts champion, right? Taking down one of our executive, your strength is undeniable. But unfortunately, Lord Orochi's power surpasses yours."

"Is that so?"

Fang Mo nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly said something that shocked everyone: "What if I said… I want to join the Monster Association? How would you respond?"

"What… what?"

TankTop Master and Pig God were visibly stunned.

Even Gyoro Gyoro seemed taken aback, clearly not expecting Fang Mo to say this, looking /Bleam
