[MHCISQD] Chapter 444: Solving Volcano
🕑 Added 2023-12-05 21:06:30 +0000 UTCFlying above the volcano, Renault gazed down at the magma below, his expression unusually solemn as it began to stir.
Shocker's stunt caught everyone off guard.
Nevertheless, it indicated their purpose for secretly constructing the base here. Apart from tapping into the underground energy source, they intended to use the entire active volcano as a final weapon.
Given Shocker's capabilities, it was entirely possible to rapidly stimulate the volcano's activity and trigger a massive eruption within a short timeframe.
Through the earpiece, Nighteye fell silent for a few seconds after hearing Renault's words. He then said, "Are you sure you can do this? If this entire volcano erupts collectively, the consequences will be severe, and the affected range will be extensive."
"Don't worry, I won't joke about something like that." Renault nodded silently. "I have several plans to address the issue here. However, just in case, Sir Nighteye, it's better to evacuate everyone first."
Due to Foresight, Nighteye chose to trust Renault.
"Understood. I'll leave it to you. However, as a precaution, I'll inform the surrounding police and be ready for personnel evacuation at any time."
"No problem."
After ending the communication, Renault's eyes turned pitch black, and a black hole opened beside him. Within seconds, Yuriko emerged from it, floating by his side.
"Volcano, never thought Shocker would do something like this." Arriving at the scene, although Renault hadn't mentioned it yet, Yuriko already felt the intense fluctuations from Mt. Fuji below.
"So, do we solve the problem here together?" Yuriko looked at Renault. "You should've called me earlier."
Renault knew she was complaining about not being involved in the fight earlier.
Renault, with a wry smile, rubbed Yuriko's head. "Okay, this situation is a bit tricky. Shocker targeted a Pro Hero, turned her into a Kaijin, and almost succeeded in betrayal. If you want to join in, maybe next time. There will be plenty of opportunities. For now, let's handle the issue here."
"Hmph, fine. You've fooled me several times. Be more careful next time."
"Got it, got it." Renault acknowledged his multiple slips of the tongue and went along with his sister's mood.
"So, what's the plan this time?" Taking out her phone and checking Mt. Fuji's situation, Yuriko asked. "Can you suppress the eruption of this entire volcano by yourself?"
"I can indeed, and I have more than one method." Renault nodded, whether relying on Quirk's power or the newly acquired Rider's power, both were feasible.
However, he didn't plan on using the Rider's power, as he wasn't sure if its influence would backfire.
Better to avoid unnecessary complications.
"I brought you along this time mainly to let you gain some fame. This way, if I involve you in troublesome matters in the future, others won't have much to say."
Yuriko could only reluctantly agree.
"Well then, let's begin."
After saying that, the aura around the two siblings instantly heightened, and their hands clasped together.
The power from both siblings quickly merged, and the energy fluctuation soared.
On the other side, all the Pro Heroes who had exited Shocker base also felt the waves generated on the volcano.
Endeavor frowned and looked up. "Such a strong energy fluctuation, Nighteye. You sure he doesn't need my help? I can at least contain the volcanic eruption if needed."
His fire abilities had evolved, granting him some resistance to magma.
Nighteye shook his head. "No need. I just foresaw it. Renault can handle this perfectly."
"Don't worry. Renault called Yuriko too. With their combined strength, if they can't handle it, we might as well evacuate the surrounding residents." Hado chimed in from the side as she descended from the air.
Nighteye breathed a sigh of relief and started commanding everyone to leave in an orderly manner.
Before leaving, Todoroki glanced upwards. Without saying a word, he left. Among his classmates, there was confidence in Renault's abilities. Besides, Renault never did anything without certainty.
In the air, the brother and sister duo gathered their strength, exchanged glances, and then dove together into the lava, disappearing from sight.
As they vanished, the volcano's tremors became more noticeable, and the ground continued to shake. However, after about a minute, the tremors gradually subsided until they disappeared entirely.
Several perception-type heroes lay on the ground. After a thorough examination, they reported to the others.
"The volcano's activity has decreased and stabilized."
Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. Nighteye immediately contacted the police and relevant personnel, reporting the situation.
Soon, two figures emerged from the volcano, landing in front of everyone.
After landing, Renault looked somewhat helpless. "Lava is really uncomfortable. I don't want to do this kind of thing again."
Yuriko agreed and nodded. "Even though I couldn't feel the heat, staring at all that red was not a pleasant experience."
"Well, it's not a place meant for humans in the first place."
Renault's sarcasm earned him an eye roll from Yuriko.
Despite encountering various problems, the assault on the Shocker base finally concluded today, resulting in the defeat of a high-ranking enemy figure.
After the mission, the injured Pro Heroes went to the hospital. Although Mirko, previously transformed into a Kaijin, had returned to her human form, she was still under close observation for a series of examinations.
Although Renault wanted to rest, he had to report in detail due to the stability of the volcano, Ambassador Hell's involvement, and the matter of Mirko's transformation.
Yuriko, Hado, and Kamui Woods, under Nighteye's guidance, also went to report, completing the process.
"Finally done with all the busyness..." Renault spoke with relief as he walked out of the police station, looking at the two girls beside him. "Let's go home, then call Mikumo. We'll go out for a big meal together."
