In the dark alley, a small, pale hand, like a giant spider, walked in unsteadily.
The eyeballs on the back of its hand looked around, and after confirming that no one was around, its whole body began to wriggle and swell.
In the blink of an eye, his entire hand grew into a tumor the size of a human, writhing disgustingly in the alley.
However, this state lasted for less than a second before the entire tumor quickly transformed into a beautiful young woman with white hair reaching her waist.
"Hera II makes its appearance."
Hera opened her arms and announced her arrival with a blank expression.
He clasped his hands together and looked himself up and down.
Currently, the strength of this Hera II is only about five percent of that of the original body. There's nothing I can do about it, since it only has the energy of one hand.
If it's five percent... that's roughly equivalent to 'ten thousand stars' in human terms.
That's enough; this strength is sufficient for Hera to complete her next mission.
Suddenly, Hera seemed to realize something serious and quickly reached into her abdomen to search.
But they found nothing.
"..."
Well, Hera forgot to give this clone some tools when she split her hand apart.
Looking at her empty little hand, Hera shrugged, and then a metal spike grew out of her palm.
Fortunately, there are still plenty of metallic elements stored in the body, all of which were absorbed from the [Silver Demon]. Their hardness is extraordinary and more than enough.
Having thought all this through, Hera nodded heavily and prepared to begin her journey!
The next step, which is also the most important, is to take the first step.
Hera walked out of the alley, grabbed a cell phone from a passerby, and then fled from the passerby's sight before sitting on a nearby trash can.
Is [X] present?
Hera brought her mouth close to the phone microphone and called out "X".
[X], who usually responds immediately when called, took more than ten minutes to respond this time.
"I'm here, what's wrong..."
Hera didn't bother to ask why it took so long to reply, and gave a straightforward answer.
"Send me to the capital of Atan and give me information about the garrison there."
That's right, this is the most important part of Hera's plan: seeking help from [X].
"……good."
...
Atan Kingdom, Night Star Headquarters.
In a brightly lit room, a girl with pigtails, looking extremely pale and listless, was trembling as she spoke to the man in front of her.
While listening to the girl with pigtails, the man was scribbling something on a piece of paper.
However, the man's brows remained furrowed, as if he had only heard unpleasant words.
Finally, after another half hour, the girl finished telling the whole story, albeit in fits and starts.
The man put down his pen and let out a long sigh.
"Miss Elifa, you must have gone through something tough."
He tried his best to keep his tone calm and comforted her gently.
The girl named Elifa's eyes immediately welled up with tears, and she couldn't help but sob softly.
The man didn't say anything more, just quietly stayed with her until Elifa's emotions calmed down a bit before he spoke again.
"Although this question might hurt your feelings, I still want to ask you whether you clearly saw the two humans who helped [life] back then?"
Mentioning "life" seemed to trigger some painful memory in the girl, and her whole body immediately trembled.
"No, no, I only remember... Brother Luo and the others were killed in an instant..."
"The captain and vice-captain were also eaten by those two monsters..."
The more she spoke, the paler the girl's face became, and she curled up into a ball.
"...Alright, Miss Elifa, you should go back and rest. Your safety is guaranteed by us, so don't worry."
As if the man's words had an effect, the girl nodded slightly, and her pale face improved a little.
Then, with the man's help, the girl walked out of the interrogation room and was escorted to her residence inside the building before the man left.
"Wait a minute, don't turn off the light... I'm scared..."
The girl curled up on the bed, stopping the man who was about to turn off the light and leave. Her pitiful appearance evoked pity.
"Okay." The man smiled faintly, without turning off the light. After glancing at the girl, he closed the door.
After closing the door, he did not choose to leave, but leaned against the wall next to him, lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.
Just as the man exhaled a puff of white smoke, an elderly man with white hair, leaning on a cane, walked over unhurriedly.
"So, what did she say?"
The old man walked slowly, but the man didn't notice him until he spoke.
Upon seeing the old man, the man quickly took the cigarette out of his mouth and bowed respectfully.
"Hello, Commander Qiao!"
"Stop asking so many questions, what have you even gotten out of your questions?"
The old man waved his hand impatiently, his hoarse voice urging him on again.
Upon seeing this, the man straightened up again.
"Miss Elifa said that on the afternoon of January 9th, their team suddenly received a message from the Fallen God Group."
"They said that in the early hours of this morning, a [Five Calamities] would be inside their corporation, and they were instructed to immediately notify the [Godslayer] squad to kill him."
"Moreover, according to Miss Elifa, the tone of the message was extremely urgent, which doesn't seem fake."
"However, their team still didn't take it seriously. After all, the Fallen God Group is just an entertainment company. How could they possibly know where the Five Calamities would appear?"
