This advanced superhuman is no nobody. Among superhumans, his level and strength are in the top tier. He held a high position in the survivor management team before and during the earthquake, and he does not hold any position in the superhuman team because his achievements, character, and loyalty before the earthquake are beyond reproach.
Of course, the main point is that this person with superpowers is already 70 years old, and all his family and friends have passed away. This is a confirmed fact, not due to reasons such as disappearance.
Such a person is certain that he will not be threatened or held hostage, and he will not make wrong decisions that are detrimental to the base due to personal feelings or other reasons.
When the array barrier above the Dragon Roar Mountains was formed, all the superhumans who were exploring breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the area covered by the formation is limited, the area they are currently exploring will not be too large, and they will not leave the area covered by the formation until they settle down.

"Hiss..."
The strange sound was extremely faint, yet it made a team of superhumans tense and ready to fight.
"Sizzle—"
A sound suddenly amplified, and streaks of white silk shot out from the dense forest!
"Ah!!" The superhuman screamed when he touched the white threads, and his arm began to corrode rapidly the moment it came into contact with them.
The superhuman beside him acted decisively, quickly digging away the corroded part of his arm with a dagger. Fortunately, the superhuman acted extremely fast. The wound that was dug out looked bloody and terrifying, but it was only a flesh wound and did not damage the tendons and bones. The arm was saved!
The injured superhuman gritted his teeth and endured the pain, feeling relieved that his hand was saved. As for the flesh wounds, he didn't care; given his constitution, he would recover after a few days of rest.
"Retreat!" The squad leader's face turned cold, and he immediately chose to retreat. This mutated creature had already seriously injured one of his team members before it even showed itself, so it was not easy to deal with. To be on the safe side, he chose to retreat.
Their mission is to explore, not to eliminate. They will leave first and report the situation later, at which point more advanced superhumans will come to clean up.
Although the defensive formation has been activated, many creatures have already entered the mountains. If it weren't for the arrival of all the superhuman teams from the capital, they probably wouldn't have been able to hold out for long.
The superhumans wanted to leave, but the mutated creatures wouldn't allow it.
A giant spider lunged out with incredible speed, its sharp legs piercing through the body of a superhuman in an instant. Had the person not reacted quickly enough to avoid vital organs, the blow would have been fatal.
The creature that attacked him was a giant, dark red spider, a mutated, demonized spider that was drawn to the mountain when it sensed the surge of spiritual energy. It arrived around the same time as the first batch of superhumans.
However, the mutated creature lacked intelligence and acted solely on instinct after entering the mountain. It began hunting living creatures as soon as it entered the mountain, so it had not yet reached the mountaintop when the formation was activated.
The superhumans relentlessly attacked the spider, but the mutated spider was incredibly fast, and the spider silk it spit out was terrifying. For a time, the group was at a disadvantage.
This mutated spider has reached level 6, while this team of superhumans is just a low-level squad, with the strongest leader only at level 5. How could they possibly be a match for a level 6 mutated creature?
Although mutated creatures lack intelligence, their defenses are extremely high after breaking through level 5. It often takes suppressing them by one level to break through their defenses with special abilities.
It should be noted that a level 6 demonic creature, with such defense, is already able to fight against a level 7 ability user. Unless the level 7 ability user is an offensive type, they may not even be able to pose a life-threatening danger to the level 6 demonic creature.
These experiences did not come out of thin air, but were summarized from the repeated battles fought by the team of superhumans.
Upon realizing the level of this mutated creature, all the superhumans turned pale with fright.
The demonic spider had no time to watch them tremble in fear; its purpose was clear: to hunt.
"Roar!" The mouth, covered with sharp mandibles, opened and a strange roar came howling.
A group of superhumans instantly felt dizzy and their spiritual energy stagnated.
Although the stagnation of spiritual energy lasts only a second, that one second is enough to determine life or death, victory or defeat.
The sharp, slender spider legs stabbed towards them. The group had barely regained their senses when they saw the spider legs right in front of them. Their faces turned pale, and they already knew what was going to happen to them.
"Clang!!"
A clang of steel clashing rang out, but the expected pain did not come. The survivors collapsed to the ground instantly.
Ahead, Amor had already killed the demonized spider with a single move.
Amo is now level 8, and with the spiritual artifacts given to him by Qing and Ming, his combat power is no less than that of a level 9 ability user. He still has a great chance of killing a level 6 demonized spider by surprise.
"Woof woof!" Just as the demonic spider lost its breath, Afu's barking came from afar.
The superhumans, who had just caught their breath, immediately tensed up, fearing that another demonized creature would appear.
They breathed a sigh of relief the moment they saw Afu. There weren't many spirit beasts in the base, and Afu was very powerful and famous among the superhumans, so they all recognized him.
"Brother Amo." Yao Yao waved from the dog's back, showing no sign of nervousness.
Despite her young age, Yao Yao is already a Level 5 ability user and has experienced countless battles and dangers, which are commonplace for her.
Although these low-level ability users were adults, their combat experience was inferior to Yao Yao's.
Ah Xu walked at the very back; he was always responsible for covering the rear, and the team's tacit understanding had long been established.
