The baseball cap vaguely rembered that he had once said in a similar discussion topic that he was different, that the more pressure he faced in the face of danger, the calr he could remain. But now it seed that he wasn’t much different from others, not as strong as he had imagined.
The baseball cap trembled as he opened his wristwatch, wanting to dial the special incident hotline for help.
However, the wristwatch didn’t have any signal at all now, and its projected image flickered like the nearby lights, constantly flickering, as if it could extinguish at any mont.
The baseball cap’s hands trembled uncontrollably, and his legs felt as if they had no bones, utterly limp, unable to exert any strength downward.
"Huff, huff~"
He took a few deep breaths, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and only after a while did he recover from the imnse fear of realizing he had encountered an event.
Anyway, there was still no encounter with a monster now, so the possibility of escaping still existed.
The baseball cap thought to himself that he should still be able to save himself, even though his heart was still racing, but after the initial period of adaptation, he could finally take action now.
He once again changed direction, starting to ride quickly towards the way he ca.
"I must leave here! I must leave here!"
This was the only thought left in his mind.
Even a fool would know which way to run now. Everything was fine when he ca here, but as soon as he reached Malt Street, sothing went wrong. There was no way he could continue forward.
Reality isn’t a movie; hiding under a blanket at ho isn’t immunity from all harm. The baseball cap just wanted to quickly find a crowded street; only then could he feel a bit of security.
However, despite frantically pedaling countless circles on his bike, the baseball cap still felt the surrounding lights were just as dim, and the environnt was still the sa familiar one. This relatively short street took such a long ti to walk through without ending.
"I... I... I..."
When he saw the trash can he had kicked over for the fourth ti, he was so frightened that he could barely speak.
By now, he was exhausted, fear mingling with fatigue, leaving him without the strength to continue riding.
Shush, shush, shush!
At this mont, the streetlights began to go out one by one, boundless shadows swept over like a veil covering the entire starry sky. A stench assaulted his nostrils, making the baseball cap feel like he was suffocating.
"What is... that..."
Before his eyes, wisps of eerie black smoke rose from a sewer manhole, the sll seemingly coming from there.
Under the baseball cap’s terrified gaze, a strange, wriggling black shadow erged from the sewer manhole, avoiding the dwindling light from the street lamps, and slowly creeping towards him.
"Hoo, hoo, hoo..."
The baseball cap could no longer speak, his chattering teeth uncontrollable, and his legs felt as if they were filled with lead, unable to move at all.
Looking down, at so point, a black shadow had already tightly embraced him. The baseball cap’s eyes filled with horror; it was his own shadow.
"Don’t co over, don’t co over!"
The baseball cap’s inner voice roared continuously, but he could not make any movent. His entire body, starting from his legs, gradually stiffened and could not move.
In the darkness, a withered hand with a deathly aura reached out from the ground, slowly moving toward the baseball cap’s face.
The withered hand appeared as a deep, pure black, as if it could devour all surrounding light. It was the transformation of the ground shadow, twisting into reality through so eerie ans, intending to devour the person in front of it.
A gift so familiar, the identity of this monster before him was already apparent.
"Shadow Demon!"
A sharp voice ca from not far away, and on the other end, two figures ca running over, none other than Su Kuangkuan and Eva.
The hand of the Shadow Demon reaching for the baseball cap paused slightly and miraculously stopped its attack, relinquishing the prey in its grasp.
And the reason for this was that it sensed two tastier delicacies.
Compared to the frail bodies of ordinary humans, Aliens preferred hunting Dark Spirits. To them, the latter’s existence was like a bright light in the dark night, and the ordinary human in front of it was just a dry, tasteless al, far less appealing than the two delicacies running over.
The baseball cap, which had already fallen into a deep abyss of despair, didn’t expect such a reversal at this mont. Just like in movies, when soone saves the protagonist in a mont of crisis.
Of course, after the recent brush with life and death, the baseball cap understood that he probably wasn’t the protagonist. But it was better to live than to die, and if he could survive, who would want to be an unnad, unremarkable extra that died?
His eyes filled with hope as he saw the two girls in white clothes running towards him, like two angels bringing him rebirth and hope. If possible, he wanted to express his gratitude once this incident ended.
"Star, Star Alliance...?"
In an instant, the baseball cap recognized them because the style of clothing Su Kuangkuan and Eva wore was renowned in this world.
The Daring Clothes, a symbol of courage and strength.
After so many Alien incidents, it was natural for the public to see the actions of the people from the Star Alliance.
Therefore, not only on Water Blue Star but also on Guleng Star and Carl Star, most people knew that those wearing such garnts were undoubtedly powerful.
Of course, so Transcendent fans in daily life wore such clothes for cosplay, but the aura around ordinary people was different from true Transcendents, and the material of the clothing had significant quality differences, making it virtually impossible to mistake a fake for the real deal.
Moreover, in such a scenario, who would run towards a monster to save soone and be a fake? It was undoubtedly an Awakener from the Star Alliance.
However, like most ordinary people, the baseball cap did not know that Daring Clothes also had grades, and not everyone wearing such clothes was an Awakener.
Take Su Kuangkuan and Eva, for example. Although they wore the white Guardian-style Daring Clothes, it didn’t an they were Guardians.
With careful observation, one could see that neither girl’s clothing was trimd with gold, which ant they hadn’t truly joined the Radiant Hall and were only considered reserve mbers.
Fortunately, the monster the baseball cap encountered wasn’t considered a high-level Alien. Su Kuangkuan rely fired a Burst Spirit Skill from afar, and under the penetration of the purple beam, directly shattered the opponent.
"It’s a Level 1 Shadow Demon, so fragile! It doesn’t seem much stronger than a Wandering Spirit."
Su Kuangkuan couldn’t quite believe that she had so easily killed an Alien, obtaining her first kill in life so effortlessly, feeling sowhat unreal.
The baseball cap also collapsed onto the ground with a thud, panting heavily, yet in his heart, he gave them a huge thumbs up.
"Indeed, the fa is well-deserved. The Awakeners from the Star Alliance are different. Such a terrifying monster was solved with one move..."
He decided that once this ordeal was over, he would certainly look up the identity of these two beauties online. An Awakener with such power must hold a significant place on the power ranking list, right?
