Chapter 3155

Behind him followed a slightly frail child with freckles on his face.

These two were Ou Er Mai Te and his disciple Yu Qiyu.

The atmosphere in the room instantly became eerie.

Long Juan's gaze sharpened; she used psychokinesis to float upward and whispered, "Rushing into the meeting room so hastily... who are you?"

"Or are you... the villains... we were told would destroy the world?"

"No!"

Before anyone could speak, Yuanzi Wushi spoke first, "These two? They count as heroes too... and their strength is impressive—not much weaker than mine."

Many S-rank heroes turned to look at Yuanzi Wushi, their faces filled with shock.

Yuanzi Wushi is one of the top-ranked S-rank heroes... yet someone of this caliber suddenly claims two such figures exist? "Enough!"

Yu Qiyu clenched his fists, staring intently at Yuanzi Wushi, and replied seriously, "You're only evenly matched with me! Ou Er Mai Te is far stronger than I am... if you fought Ou Er Mai Te, you'd lose."

"Shut up!"

Yuanzi Wushi grew angry, "You keep saying that! I've challenged Ou Er Mai Te so many times—he refuses to fight me! How am I supposed to accept he's stronger than me?"

"... Fine."

Seeing someone recognized them, Long Juan paused briefly, then settled back into her chair. "If you're not enemies, then fine... but despite this familiarity, you still seem suspicious."

The Hero Association's chief inside the room looked uneasy, hesitated for a long while, then, after confirming the S-rank heroes weren't joking, spoke cautiously, "Miss Long Juan... you truly don't recognize Ou Er Mai Te, the symbol of peace?"

"This man... his fame among the public rivals that of the strongest man on Earth!"

Long Juan: ""

The group of S-rank heroes: "!!!!!"

Aside from those who knew the truth—Yu Qiyu and others—including Yuanzi Wushi and Bang Gu, everyone was utterly bewildered.

Bang Gu and the others did recognize Ou Er Mai Te, but they were certain he had never been this famous.

Precisely because this situation was too bizarre, the atmosphere in the room grew even more eerie.

A chilling aura spread through the air.

"Let me explain."

Breaking the room's dead silence, he turned to Tong Di, "Tong Di, search online for information on the Hero Academy."

Tong Di pressed his lips together, nodded, then searched while projecting the results into the air.

A flood of unfamiliar hero names appeared before the S-rank heroes.

"... How is this possible? Why are there so many high-profile heroes I've never heard of?"

Hei Guang stared in disbelief.

"It's as if... the world was silently rewritten."

Bang Gu murmured, a bitter smile on his face, "It's terrifying."

"To put it simply—I come from another world."

Ou Er Mai Te flashed a bright smile and cut straight to the point.

He had no intention of hiding it; after all, the One Punch Man world had too many people unaffected by world fusion, retaining memories of another world.

Rather than conceal it until the truth exploded and triggered global chaos, it's better to be honest—that's how you truly solve problems. "And my world has merged with yours! Ordinary people automatically gain memories of the other world due to the fusion."

"But we, the strong, do not."

Ou Er Mai Te concluded seriously, "This is the true reason for what's happening now."

The Hero Association's civilian chief twitched his lips but could not speak.

"... I see."

After a long silence, Bang Gu nodded, "No wonder your strength is so immense yet your name is unknown—you're a powerful figure from another world? Everything makes sense now."

"... Also!"

Having glimpsed a fragment of the future through Kenbunshoku, knowing Tong Di was about to question him, he immediately explained, "This enemy is connected to the world fusion—but has nothing to do with Ou Er Mai Te and his group. They are not the guides."

He implied he wasn't lying, only withholding part of the truth.

Ou Er Mai Te was not the guide... for the true guide was actually Su Han, the president! "By the way!"

Qi Yu, seated at the far end of the table, spoke in confusion, "Aren't you preparing for battle yet? The enemy... has already arrived."

"What?"

"The enemy has arrived? Where?"

"Could it be!!"

The S-rank heroes froze, then their expressions turned grim.

A thunderous boom erupted.

Countless missiles slammed into the Hero Association's massive headquarters.

Shredding every defense system to pieces.

Deafening explosions rang continuously.

Flames shot into the sky.

Directly above the Hero Association, a colossal, tire-like spacecraft hovered silently.

From this vessel, countless missiles continued launching.

Inside the spacecraft.

A vast chamber filled with mechanical textures, serving as a conference room.

"My Lord!"

A two-meter-tall, lion-like beastman knelt reverently before Hakeles, seated upon the Wang Zuo, his voice filled with fervor, "We have successfully destroyed the gathering place of the planet's strongest beings."

"Now... it is time for you to deploy your armies and claim this planet entirely, turning it into your colony."

"... You're wrong!"

Halkes narrowed his eyes, then suddenly let out a cold laugh. "If that bunch were this easy to deal with, they wouldn't be worth me going in so fully prepared."

The Hero Association headquarters, which had turned into a stretch of ruins, exploded with a boom, and countless chunks of rubble and rebar were suspended in midair by telekinesis.

"... Damn it!"

Tatsumaki floated half in the air, her expression dark. "It just reminds me of that guy Boros's invasion... No! Even that guy Boros didn't destroy the Hero Association headquarters."

"... No! What I'm thinking of is, in the Chouzhelian Alliance 4! Thanos didn't hesitate to blow up the Chouzhelian Alliance building."

A light, airy voice rang out.

Tatsumaki's expression suddenly changed. She turned her head to look beside her and saw an iron armor suit floating not far away. "Hey! Tornado of Terror, Young Lady, hello there!"

Tatsumaki: "..."

The expressions of all the heroes froze solid.

It was only after they recognized Su Han, who had stood among that group last time and helped them repel Boros, that their expressions eased considerably.
