"Hey, are you okay?"
King put his hands in his pockets and bent slightly to look down at the frightened young man.
When he just witnessed the young man's heroic act and was about to be involved in a car accident, he immediately activated the skill he had acquired - "Strong Adhesive".
Strong Adhesive lv3: The liquid ejected from the body is converted into a strong adhesive. Its principle is to extract the moisture in the body and convert the liquid into a super strong adhesive. With his level three level, he can't even stick to a speeding car. Cars and even trains have to stop obediently, or they may derail and overturn.
"No, it's okay."
The young man came back to his senses and waved his hands with lingering fear. The car didn't really hit him, so he was fine. He was just a little too frightened.
"Hiss~"
The girl in yellow gritted her teeth, frowned, and stood up while rubbing her arms. The fall just now almost broke her bones and the pain was excruciating. She still couldn't use her strength now.
Because of King's intervention, the young man did not complete the drama of a hero saving the beauty, but seemed to maliciously push down the little girl.
The young man looked embarrassed and said, "Are you okay? I didn't control my strength well. I'm really sorry."
"I don't blame you, you also wanted to save me, but... just..." The girl in yellow rubbed her weak and slender arms, her pretty face darkened, and some mist rose in her eyes, "It's just that I will join the Heroes in a while. It’s been tested. My physical fitness is not good in the first place, and now I can’t use my arms. It’s impossible to pass the physical test in this state.”
King comforted: "It's okay. The Hero Association holds a hero test every half month. If you miss this one, you can wait another half month to sign up for the next one."
"It's different." The young man looked at the sad girl in yellow and said guiltily: "It is rumored that the king will personally host this hero test this time, and will select an applicant to be his apprentice. If you miss this test, he will be the next one. It's basically impossible to be favored by the king again after one session." He sincerely apologized to the girl in yellow, "I'm very sorry, I didn't expect such a result."
The girl in yellow wiped the corners of her eyes and said with a forced smile: "It doesn't matter. I'm not very strong to begin with. I might not be able to pass the hero test, so how could I be favored by the king?" This realization made her feel much better. , no longer worried about not being able to pass the hero test, and smiled sweetly at the guilty young man: "My wish is to become a hero. It doesn't really matter whether I can be the king's apprentice? It's just... maybe I'm still the best this time. If you can’t become a hero anymore, why don’t you take the hero test?”
The young man said: "Well, I just happened to sign up too."
The girl in yellow cheered, "Then come on, maybe you will be the apprentice of King, the strongest man in the future."
"No, it's impossible for me. I look so ordinary, how could the king like me." The young man's face turned red and he shook his head violently.
"Hey, hey, you are mistaken. King has no intention of recruiting disciples at all. You are too worried." King listened for a long time and couldn't help but interrupt them.
The girl in yellow looked at the heavily armed king curiously, "But that's what everyone said, so it shouldn't be wrong. By the way, looking at your dress, are you also going to take the hero test?"
"Well, that's right!"
Seeing that the other party did not believe his words, King stopped explaining.
The girl in yellow no longer cared about the possibility that she might fail the hero test and miss out on the king's apprenticeship, and asked slightly embarrassedly: "My name is Huang Yi, what are your names?"
King frowned slightly, "Who is called Huang Yi?" This is the setting of the Western world. Except for the special case of Saitama and a few weirdos, everyone's names are based on Western naming methods. I believe you when you say your name is Lucy, but I don't believe it even if you beat me to death.
"This is my hero name." The girl in yellow explained, "We heroes naturally call each other by each other's hero name!"
Ah, I met a Yuan (middle) Qi (two) girl!
King said speechlessly: "I remember that when you officially become heroes, the association will evaluate and add your hero title after you have carried out hero activities for a period of time. You haven't become heroes yet, how can you be a hero? Name?"
"It doesn't matter, I will become a hero sooner or later." The girl in yellow said with a smile: "And the Hero Association is a title specially given based on the characteristics of the hero itself. For example, King, he is the strongest man on the surface and the most powerful person standing among human beings. A man at the top is as high as an emperor, so the title of hero is king, but I don’t have any other characteristics. I often wear a yellow windbreaker, so my title of hero must be yellow!"
The young man couldn't help laughing and said, "Then let me call you glasses. Apart from a pair of glasses, I have nothing else to attract attention."
King complained: "Then am I called the Masked Superman?"
The girl in yellow looked at the king carefully and agreed: "Yes, your appearance completely fits the title of hero!"
"Heh... just be happy. I still have my companions waiting for me. I'm leaving. I wish you success."
King twitched his lips, waved, turned and returned to the car, heading to the J City branch of the Hero Association to host the 55th Hero Test.
"goodbye."
…
Since the Hero Association was established three years ago, hero tests have always existed. Almost all heroes officially become professional heroes after passing the hero test, with the exception of a few S-class heroes, such as king.
With the surge in the number of monsters in recent years, there has been a serious shortage of heroes. Hero tests are held more and more frequently. Nowadays, hero tests are basically held every half month. However, the number of heroes still has not increased much. Firstly, this is because In order to ensure the quality of heroes, the association has become more and more strict in testing, resulting in the number of people who pass each test being almost single digits. Secondly, after becoming a professional hero, C-level heroes have a rigid rule, that is, they must conduct at least one test every week. A hero event, otherwise they will be removed from the hero name book. Many C-level heroes cannot persist, leading to heroes quitting the association over the years. This is also one of the important reasons why the number of heroes in the Hero Association is not high. It is also a C-level hero. The reason for the drastic changes in hero rankings.
In recent years, the hero test has become more stringent. The physical strength test has added a lot of content and is diverse, such as a 1,500-meter run to test speed, a shot put to test wrist strength, a vertical jump to test jumping ability, weightlifting to test arm strength, and Whack-a-mole for hand speed, boxing machine for testing boxing strength, etc. In short, it is just like a comprehensive physical examination, testing the physical fitness of the applicants from top to bottom. The result of this severe test is the number of people who pass the hero test in each session. Very few, and even several times the entire army was wiped out.
The Hero Association can proudly announce to the world that "the professional heroes of the Hero Association are all the elites of the cream of the crop!!"
