"Alright, next I'll tell you about the ranking system for Night Stars and the alien species..."

“I know that.”

"I know you know, but the procedure still needs to be reviewed."

"..."

"First of all is the Night Stars. This is a formal organization formed by the government, but due to its special nature, it does not operate from military bases like other armies. Instead, it lives among the people like a civilian organization."

Typically, Night Stars are stationed in small teams in a city to protect the surrounding area from alien invasions.

However, there is a serious problem here, which is that there are not enough people. An ordinary squad requires at least six people, and there are more than a hundred cities in the Great Xia.

It's obviously unrealistic to station a Nightstar squad in every city.

Moreover, the strength of each squad varies greatly. Some squads are very strong and can even defeat 'disaster' level aliens, while others are very weak, with an average level that doesn't even reach 'high-level'.

However, mutants don't simply appear in cities where powerful teams reside just because they are strong.

That's why we created our special investigation team. Our duty is to immediately go and investigate any case we receive that is suspected to involve an alien species, no matter where in Great Xia it may be.

Our entire mission is to provide headquarters with the alien species' strength and basic information, and then have them send a suitable team. In case of emergencies, we can also directly kill the alien species.

However, since we had no idea about the strength of the aliens, or even any intelligence, the special investigation team became the team with the highest mortality rate among all Night Stars.

This is the spirit of the first person to try something new; while illuminating the path for those who follow, they themselves are also the most vulnerable to falling into darkness.

Feng Xuan slowly grew serious, picked up a glass of water from the side, and took a big gulp.

"I'm exhausted from saying so much in one go."

"I knew I made the right choice! The special investigation team is definitely the best fit for me!"

"Pfft—!" Feng Xuan suddenly spat out the water he had just drunk, spraying it all over Liu Xiaogang next to him.

Liu Xiaogang: ?!

"Cough, cough." Feng Xuan looked at Xing Lan and realized that she was actually serious.

No way?! Even if most people weren't scared, they'd at least be shocked and fall silent for a while! Why is she getting excited again?

Feng Xuan sighed helplessly. It seemed he couldn't treat her like a normal person anymore, he thought to himself.

Then he continued to introduce other people to Xinglan.

"Do you remember the person you almost suffocated? His name is Si Xiaobei. He's a scout in our team, used to scout out enemy positions and terrain."

He is also a superhuman with a skill called "Detective." You can think of it as divine sense in cultivation. It has zero attack power, but its detection effect is very good.

So I always take him with me on missions. He's very easygoing and has a simple personality. Just make sure you don't accidentally hurt him again.

Xinglan scratched her head awkwardly. "Uh... don't worry, this won't happen again."

"Then there's the person who's always been stuck to by Si Xiaobei."

"You're the one who brought me here, right?"

"Yes, his name is Nanming, and he is our vice-captain. He is usually in charge of the team when the captain is not around."

"His special ability..." Feng Xuan thought for a moment with his head down.

"Anyway, it's a special case, just pretend he doesn't have any special abilities."

"Hmm, what does this mean?" Xinglan narrowed her eyes as she looked at Fengxuan.

Feng Xuan felt uneasy under her gaze. "Oh, don't ask too many questions. You'll find out yourself in time."

"Hehe, just tell me."

"no!"

"tell me!"

"no……"

After trying to persuade her to no avail, Xinglan had no choice but to give up.

"Cough cough..." Liu Xiaogang, who had been sitting on the edge of the bed, suddenly coughed twice, looked at Xinglan, and then pointed to the door.

Xinglan looked towards the door and found that Captain Sun Hai was already standing there, watching them.

"Captain!" Xinglan immediately stood at attention and gave Sun Hai a standard military salute.

"No need for that. Come with me when you're ready." With that, he left, his face and tone devoid of any emotion.

"Uh, has he always been like this?" Xinglan looked at Fengxuan and the other person.

The two nodded helplessly.

"Captain, he's always been like this, with that stubborn temper of his. He always has this icy face, like someone owes him a million dollars." Liu Xiaogang complained mercilessly, then glanced around warily, only relaxing after confirming that the captain had indeed left.

"Liu Xiaogang is right. The captain is indeed like this ever since he joined the Night Stars. I heard it has something to do with his childhood."

"Hmm!" Starry blue's eyes immediately sparkled again.

"Did he have some tragic childhood experience?"

"Yeah, you could say that."

Wow! Tell me about it quickly!

Feng Xuan's lips twitched, but he still spoke slowly.

"When the captain was young, his family was attacked by a mutated creature..."

"And then his whole family died?!"

"Uh... no, his family is fine, it's just that the captain's dog, which he raised since he was a puppy, was killed."

"..."

Xinglan sighed, somewhat disappointed.

"What are you feeling down about! That dog was with the captain throughout his entire childhood!"

"Wait a minute, do you really want the captain's family to die?!" Liu Xiaogang couldn't help but speak up from the side.
