I survived by drawing cards after being transported to One-Punch Man.

Chapter 139 New Member of the Hot Pot Group

House of Evolution.

Dr. Genos's expression leaned towards madness.

His thoughts raced between the new drug and his own research.

"These are both different paths to species evolution. If we can combine their advantages, perhaps my ideal new human can be truly born through this opportunity."

He pondered to himself, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

But Lin Yu's words immediately poured cold water on him, causing his enthusiasm to temporarily subside.

"Put away those extreme ideas of yours. Any progress in the experiment must be kept secret until you get my approval before we decide whether to use it."

Lin Yu turned his head and stared intently at Dr. Genus.

"……what?"

Dr. Genos was momentarily taken aback, but Lin Yu's oppressive aura gave him no chance, and in an instant he felt suffocated.

Like the pressure from the deep sea, it made it almost impossible for him to breathe, and the intense feeling of suffocation interrupted his grand blueprint for evolution.

He then realized that he was already serving this man.

"I'm sorry," he said, pushing up his glasses with difficulty, his voice trembling slightly, "I haven't quite adjusted yet..."

"The idea is good, but you should still communicate more with those two."

After speaking, Lin Yu also informed Genos of the locations of the bases in Z City and B City.

"I...I understand!"

Although he didn't quite understand what Lin Yu was saying, Dr. Genus quickly nodded.

For him, being able to communicate with top figures in the same field is undoubtedly a good medicine.

In a sense, Dr. Genos was indeed a pure researcher—someone who was willing to sacrifice himself to achieve his ideals.

What these scientists fear most is not death itself, but the inability to continue their research after death.

Therefore, having him devote himself to the research of these medicines and machines was undoubtedly a way for him to make the most of his talents.

As for whether he will betray him in the future, Lin Yu is not worried.

After all, he has Saitama as his backup, enough to suppress any unexpected events with a single punch.

"Alright, that's the basic situation. I'll leave the Imperial Arms for you to study. Don't let me down."

Lin Yu casually tossed the Eighth Chamber to Dr. Genus, then turned and left.

.........

Above the sky, Lin Yu understood that although the Hero Association was currently powerful, its future was not bright.

The core of the problem lies in the fact that the association's leadership has deviated from its original principles and forgotten the lofty goals that led to the association's founding.

They allocated valuable hero resources primarily to the elites and powerful, neglecting the needs of the general public. This unequal practice sparked widespread public discontent, causing the association to gradually lose popular support.

As time went by, C-class and B-class heroes, and even some A-class and S-class heroes, became tools of the Hero Association, used to serve the wealthy and powerful, rather than to protect the people in need.

I'm not going to think about it anymore, I'm going to pick up the little cuties.

Lin Yu shook his head; his own little darling was still the one who brought him joy.

........

Q City, Manor.

The long table was filled with all kinds of hot pot ingredients, and the steaming hot pot broth emitted an enticing aroma.

The hot pot group will welcome 109 new members, including Genos and Lin Yu's adorable friends.

"Lin Yu, is this why you want us to buy more hot pot ingredients? Are these kids going to join us too? Isn't that too dangerous?"

Saitama looked at the children dressed in cute outfits and said.

He knew Lin Yu had a bunch of kids, and the smiles on their faces were unstoppable every day—a sure way to get him killed.

"No way? My little darlings aren't as bad as you think, are they, Genos?"

Lin Yu patted Genos's mechanical back and said.

But Genos gave Saitama the same dead fish look.

Back then, after being rescued by Dr. Kusno and undergoing modifications, he was put to a combat test, and his opponents were these children in front of him.

In just five minutes, he was sent back to the furnace and reworked. After gradually equipping himself with new gear, he wouldn't have to be sent back to the furnace for at least thirty minutes.

“These kids are really strong, Saitama-sensei. They are qualified to join the hot pot team.”

Genos said in a serious and methodical manner.

"Huh? Genos, you're a cyborg, you can joke around too?"

Saitama looked back and forth between Genos and the adorable children in front of him.

On one side are cold, ruthless, and aloof robots.

On one side is an adorable, innocent little girl.

You're telling me they're very strong?

“I’m not kidding, Saitama-sensei. Your strength is too great for you to sense the difference in strength between us ordinary people,” Genos said.

"In that case... my little darlings, let this bald big brother see your strength."

Lin Yu clapped his hands, and all the little cuties simultaneously grabbed the evil spirit possession items.

The little cuties all shouted in unison, "Okay, Brother Lin Yu!"

Excitement shone in their eyes.

"Possessed by evil spirits!"

Different colored body armor appeared on the children, and the next second they had long spears (redback shrike) in their hands, which they swung forcefully at the forest not far away.

The power was transmitted through the spear, forming waves of energy that intertwined in the air and eventually converged into a powerful shockwave.

"boom!"

The shockwave struck the forest with a deafening roar, and the trees snapped and crashed to the ground as if pushed down by a tremendous force.

Dust billowed, and the entire forest seemed to tremble at that moment.

Saitama's eyes widened slightly; it seemed these girls really did have some skills.

"My little cutie is pretty good, isn't she?"

Lin Yu's nose was practically pointing to the sky at this moment; nothing could make him more proud than this.

"Cough cough..."

Just then, a cough was heard.

Looking towards the sound, I saw it was Banggu.

Bang was invited to the manor to witness the new members of the hot pot team, but he didn't expect to see this scene as soon as he arrived.

He glanced around, his gaze settling on Rem and the others, his eyebrows slightly raised: "Oh? These children are..."

"They are the new members of the hot pot team, and there's also that cyborg, his name is Genos," Lin Yu introduced.

"What was that noise just now?"

Bang seemed to have discovered a new continent, staring at Lin Yu's little cuties and asking.

"It's them~, my little darlings."

Lin Yu looked at the adorable little ones who had deactivated their transformations.

"Since that's the case, Lin Yu, you know I'm all alone and my disciples are all useless..."

Bangu flashed to Lin Yu's side and whispered.

He'd ruined all his new skills, but these little girls in front of him seemed to have a real talent for martial arts.

"What, are you going to become a human trafficker? Kidnapping my little darling?"
