Even the fierce claws seemed to slow down in his eyes.

The masked man dodged to the side, his sharp claws barely grazing his cheek before he managed to avoid them.

With a backhand slash, a bloody gash appeared on the six-legged monster's back.

"roar--!"

The six-legged monster roared, turned around quickly, and pounced on the masked man again. Since the two claws on its back were only used for attacking, its attack speed was extremely fast.

Although the masked man didn't seem to move as fast as the six-legged monster, he was able to dodge accurately every time.

Moreover, they can find the right opportunity to stab the six-legged monster a few times.

Gradually, the hexagonal monster developed more and more wounds, and the masked man seemed to be getting tired.

His movements began to slow down, and his breathing became rapid.

"It seems this human's cultivation level is about the same as that guy's. I wonder who will win between them."

It must be this human...

Should I go help him? But what if I die? Even though my cultivation level is higher than his, I'm still afraid.

Xiao Huan hid behind an advertising board, cautiously watching their fight, while also struggling with whether or not she should help.

"If I don't help, I'll have to find another mutant. If I help this human, he definitely can't beat me, but what if he has some trump card or a more powerful rescuer comes? Wouldn't I be doomed?"

Just as it was struggling with this decision, the battle below had already come to a conclusion.

The masked man seized the opportunity to dodge the six-legged monster's attack and slashed down at its neck.

Suddenly, a spray of blood mist erupted, and the six-legged monster collapsed to the ground in agony, struggling for a moment before becoming still.

"Well, now there's only one option left. Sigh, you're unlucky to run into a human, buddy."

Xiao Huan didn't rush to run away, but waited quietly until the human left before she left herself.

This is survival experience I've accumulated over thirty years of living.

The masked man wiped the sweat from his forehead and kicked the six-legged monster twice.

Seeing that he had indeed lost his life, I finally felt relieved.

Just then, a middle-aged man with a rugged American-style beard walked over with a smile.

"Not bad, you look like a vice-captain. You managed to kill a mutant of the same level as yourself without my help."

This middle-aged man was different from the masked man and the Night Star who Hera had seen before, who were dressed in strange clothes. He was wearing just an ordinary sports vest.

The masked man nodded weakly, sat down on the ground leaning against a telephone pole, and was clearly exhausted.

The middle-aged man gently nudged his foot. "Can you still walk? Or should I carry you back for you?"

The masked man shook his head.

"It's alright, I just need to rest for a bit. Captain, you go and continue rescuing people."

Seeing that the masked man's situation wasn't as bad as he thought, the middle-aged man felt relieved.

"Okay, I'll be going now."

But just as he took a step, the masked man sitting on the ground suddenly called out to him again.

"Captain, do you think we'll die...?"

The captain's body trembled, and he froze in place after taking a step, but he recovered after a moment, turned around and smiled at the masked man.

"What are you talking about? How could we possibly die?"

The masked man lowered his head, peering through the crack in the ground at the clouds below.

"So tell me, how can we survive? Jump down? Or wait for rescue?"

"At such a high altitude, with so many people, do you think those incompetent government officials can rescue us?!"

As he spoke, the masked man became agitated, and his last sentence was almost shouted out.

"Hehe, you foolish humans, you won't survive, but I definitely will. I have a boss..."

The mischievous little phantom, hiding in the shadows and witnessing everything, muttered to himself with a touch of wicked humor.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's smile slowly faded. He walked up to the masked man and patted him on the shoulder.

“Ryder, if you were an ordinary person, there would be no problem with thinking like this.”

But you are the Night Star, a star that guides the world when darkness falls.

If even we give up hope, what will happen to everyone else in this city?

The middle-aged man stared into Ryder's eyes, his gaze filled with unwavering determination.

Ryder slowly lowered his head and nodded twice. "Understood, Captain Crane..."

Without saying anything more, Crane flashed off to rescue the people.

After a while, Ryder had rested enough and stood up to go with the captain to rescue others.

"Phew, they're all finally gone."

Xiao Huan exhaled, spread its wings, and continued its search for the alien species throughout the city.

...

On the other side, Hera carried two people into the hospital and dumped them on the makeshift beds on the floor.

"Hera, how's it going? Have you finished rescuing everyone over there?"

Eileen ran over to Hera with a bunch of medical supplies and started carrying two people to check Hera's physical condition.

“They’ve all been rescued; these are the last two.” Hera stood beside her, looking at Eileen.

Eileen took the stethoscope down and looked at Hera with admiration in her eyes.

"Hera, you're amazing! You almost managed to save us as fast as my brother and I did it all by yourself."

"It's nothing," Hera said, shaking her head slightly.

Eileen covered the two of them with the blanket, then got up and walked towards the door.

"These two are fine. Let's go find my brother and go rescue the next person."

"Mmm." Hera nodded and followed her toward Fran.
