Chapter 500 - - 458 Straight Hook Fishing_3

—————✧✧✧✧—————

The attributes that enhanced Duge’s speed were more than enough for him to reach the crime scenes in the shortest amount of time, taking the place of the police to fight criminals and save innocent victims.

Against those who preyed on the weak, Duge never showed mercy. Anyone unfortunate enough to cross his path would suffer broken arms and legs at the least, and at worst, be left unable to take care of themselves.

In just a few nights.

Duge had struck nearly forty criminal activities, rescuing more than sixty people from the hands of evildoers…

The criminals he had dealt with gnashed their teeth in hatred towards him, while those he had rescued affectionately called him the “Masked Hero,” showering him with all their praise in front of the reporters’ cameras.

…

“A Masked Hero has emerged, striking down more than a dozen criminal acts in one night, leading the police to highly suspect that he is an organization!”

“Nemesis of crime, guardian angel of the people, the Masked Hero has displayed combat power beyond that of ordinary people. Has the government developed a stronger human enhancement drug?”

“A new direction for human evolution, does the appearance of the Masked Hero mean that human augmentation can keep pace with Mecha?”

“Street corner surveillance clearly captured the Masked Hero’s entire process from appearance to rescue. The police have technically reconstructed the Masked Hero and hope that those with information will provide intelligence to the authorities.”

“The Masked Hero is very fast. At that time, my leg was broken, and when he took me to the hospital, it felt like flying. I would bet that his speed then must have exceeded five hundred kilometers per hour. He should really be called Flash Hero.”

“I saw his chin, it was very smooth, I think, he must be a teenager.”

“The Masked Hero might really be Superman. He got from one crime scene to another in less than three minutes, even though the two locations were ten kilometers apart. We highly suspect he has superhuman hearing…”

“To those who know information about the Masked Hero, don’t be tempted by the reward money to betray him to the police. Those incompetent fools would likely dissect him for study. We need him to protect us; with him around, criminals wouldn’t dare to harm us.”

…

Duge was confident in avoiding any camera, but he still chose to expose part of his movements. Being low-key requires high-profile cooperation.

Publicity is necessary for high-profile.

Therefore.

When various videos of the Masked Hero were uploaded online, his fame began to vie with that of Kill One Every Ten Steps.

After all.

Kill One Every Ten Steps represents advanced Mecha control technology, while the Masked Hero represents superlative personal combat power. Both aspects are what people aspire to and pursue.

Compared to Kill One Every Ten Steps, who made a show on the battle network and then disappeared, the ordinary public liked the Masked Hero more, because the Masked Hero is truly guarding by their side, able to protect them…

…

Not long after Duge had created a new persona for himself,

many hidden Alien Warriors could no longer contain themselves.

…

“The position of Kill One Every Ten Steps may be at risk. ‘Frost Princess’ perfectly replicated Sea Swallow’s battle scene against Blade in the intermediate training ground, inviting all high-level Mecha masters to challenge her.”

“‘Great General Feng’ replicated Kill One Every Ten Steps’ maneuvers, issuing a challenge to him in the intermediate training ground.”

“‘A madman’ using Falcon achieved ten victories in ten battles in the intermediate simulation field, destroying ten opponents in a mad rampage, and powerfully stepped into the rank of senior Mecha drivers within just one day?”

“Black Cat Hero, after the Masked Hero, a new superhero appears. Criminals who encountered her had no survivors. With her own power, she swept through the Tiger Head Gang, slaughtering 187 members, causing rivers of blood within the gang…”
