Chapter 516

The Masked Sweetheart nodded.

Indeed, they had already said everything they needed to say between them.

Now suddenly, Luo En had inserted himself.

They knew that if they continued talking, they might expose themselves.

Luo En was somewhat surprised.

He had assumed they would continue their deeper conversation after he left.

But he hadn't expected them to simply give up like that.

Yet Luo En said nothing more and kept walking forward.

His sister caught up to him.

"Your strength is so powerful.

Why are you still only a B-rank hero?

You can apply to the Hero Association."

Luo En said, "Hero ranks are just labels.

They hold no inherent meaning.

Even if I were an S-rank hero now,

what I do and what I'm about to do would be no different.

The most important thing is to fight for humanity.

To drive out all those freaks completely.

That is our only goal."

His sister nodded, but her expression revealed nothing.

She seemed troubled, yet she said nothing.

Luo En said, "The Freak Association won't let this go easily.

They might send stronger freaks to ambush us.

So you must be careful.

You've surely heard a lot about the God-level disaster.

So far, we haven't found a better solution.

If you have any good suggestions, tell me.

You can also go to the Hero Association and speak plainly to them."

His sister paused, glancing at Luo En in surprise.

But from Luo En's expression, she saw no emotion.

She was puzzled—why had Luo En suddenly brought up the God-level disaster?

This disaster had always haunted everyone's minds, lingering and inescapable.

They all knew a terrifying disaster was about to arrive.

This disaster might wipe out all of humanity.

It was an unprecedented, colossal disaster.

No one had ever faced anything like it before, so no one knew what to do.

His sister had thought of some methods too, but none were practical.

At least, as a C-rank hero, she had no ability to use them.

His sister smiled.

"As for that kind of miraculous disaster,

what can we do? We're nothing but lowly C-rank heroes.

Our abilities are limited—we can only fight freaks on the streets.

Maybe we can't even defeat slightly stronger freaks.

But it doesn't matter, as long as we keep fighting.

We can still find our own place."

After speaking, she lowered her head, her expression melancholy.

"But now, each freak has become so strong.

Though we still want to fight,

we can't even defeat a single lowliest freak.

We don't know what's happened to them.

Perhaps someone is secretly manipulating all of this."

Luo En said, "The reason freaks have become so strong

is because they've taken some special drug.

It temporarily unlocks their potential.

Thus, most low-tier freaks have evolved.

This was inevitable.

If you want to keep fighting them, you can't stop training.

You must make yourself stronger."

His sister looked at Luo En in surprise.

Then she said helplessly.

"I want to become stronger."

"How easy is that?"

"I know our potential is limited."

"On the path of cultivation."

"I have no talent at all; reaching this level is already my limit."

"No matter how hard I train, the gains are extremely slight."

"It's useless."

Luo En shook his head.

"Don't dismiss yourself so quickly."

"Cultivation often comes through insight."

"You must immerse yourself to gain more experience."

"If you don't mind, you can train with me."

"Perhaps I can explain some methods of cultivation to you."

A smile spread across the sister's face—this was the first time anyone had offered to train with her.

Besides, Luo En had already shown her his strength.

She knew Luo En was powerful.

If she could train with Luo En,

her own progress would surely improve greatly.

She nodded eagerly.

"Sure! I've actually been looking for someone to train with long-term."

"Cultivation is often very dull."

Luo En invited the sister to train with him primarily to grow closer to her.

That way, he could quickly learn her movements.

Learn what she truly wanted to do, or build a good relationship with her.

He would gain more information in the future.

Although the sister was only a Class-C hero,

Luo En could sense she had many eyes around her.

Even the Class-A hero Masked Sweetheart was connected to her.

This made Luo En wonder whether her talent lay not in cultivation,

but elsewhere.
