At the same time, I traveled through time and space, I dominated the heavens and the worlds

The city that Lin Bei and Constantine arrived in was not large, but it had a vibrant nightlife.

Casinos and bars are everywhere. It's late at night, and you can see strangely dressed young people all over the streets.

Lin Bei stared at the roadside for a while, which attracted a lot of boys and girls dressed as vampires to whistle.

Constantine gave them the middle finger and sped off down the street.

Constantine, a cigarette dangling from his lips, swerved the steering wheel and muttered under his breath, "These kids, their parents are too lax. Going to a bar at this hour? What holiday is it today? Why are they all dressed so strangely?"

Just as he was muttering to himself, a stern voice came from the other side of the corner: "Hey! Stop right there! You're all under sixteen, get home now! This isn't your time to be out! No bars or casinos!"

Constantine parked the car on the side of the road and looked over curiously with Lin Bei.

Three or four police cars were parked on the side of the road, and police officers were standing on the street, blocking a dozen or so teenagers dressed up as well-known characters such as the Mummy, Batman, and Catwoman, preventing them from going to the bar on the street around the corner.

The teenagers were clearly very dissatisfied, and it's unclear who started it, but they started arguing with the police while trying to break through their lines.

Lin Bei listened for a while and picked up a few key words.

"Masquerade Week," "Citywide Carnival," "Police Have No Right to Drive Away Teenagers This Week"...

As for the police, they were vague and could not give a clear reason for driving the teenagers away.

This explains why the teenagers initially cooperated, but only became bolder and confronted the police directly after the police were given permission from their superiors.

Lin Bei watched as the two sides were about to fight. Constantine yawned, looking bored, and said, "Hey Lin Bei, what's so interesting about this? Didn't you say you brought me here to find some excitement? This is no fun at all."

Lin Bei glanced at him sideways with a faint smile: "Looking at the surface is meaningless, of course. Don't you think the police's attitude is very strange? From what they're saying, this week should have been a celebration for them, with no age restrictions and no curfew restrictions. But why are the police spontaneously coming to the streets to drive people home without any order from their superiors?"

After Lin Bei said that, Constantine slowly realized something was wrong: "Huh? So, according to you, the police discovered a danger in the city, but after reporting it to their superiors, they didn't expect it to be suppressed, so they had to take to the streets to send the children home on their own? If they really discovered something, wouldn't the higher-ups have covered it up? Damn it, I'm a little curious about what exactly happened in this city."

Constantine was curious, and Lin Bei was naturally curious as well.

Since entering the city, he felt that there was a power in all directions that did not belong to this world. Before, he was far away and the other party was trying to hide it, so he had not been able to detect it. Now that he has arrived at his destination, he has discovered this special thing.

Like him, it is not a force inherent in this world itself.

That makes it worthwhile to delve deeper into this.

If this power is special, he wouldn't mind taking it for himself.

Lin Bei narrowed his eyes slightly, watching the group of police suppress the teenagers and drive them all away before striding towards them.

Besides police cars, their car was the only one parked on the street. When the police came, they probably just wanted to drive them away.

When the officer reached the car, he adjusted his hat and politely said to Constantine and Lin Bei, "Gentlemen, you look unfamiliar. Are you from out of town?"

Lin Bei nodded slightly and smiled, "Yes, we came to participate in the city's 'Masquerade Week,' but we seem to be lost and can't find the bar we're looking for."

Seeing that the two were easy to communicate with, the police officer secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then gave an apologetic smile: "I'm sorry, it seems you two will have to turn back the way you came. There are many safety hazards in the city this week. For your safety, you'd better turn around and leave the city immediately."

The words were well-intentioned, but Lin Bei wouldn't listen.

He feigned confusion and asked, "When I came in, it seemed like nothing much was happening in the city. Everyone was celebrating, wasn't they? Could you tell me more specifically what happened?"

The police officer looked troubled, hesitated for a moment, and then mumbled that a serial killer was on the run in the city and had not yet been caught.

Lin Bei nodded in understanding, then made an excuse that it was too late and decided to stay overnight and leave during the day tomorrow.

He then nodded to the police officers, signaling Constantine to drive in the other direction.

After the two checked into the hotel, Lin Bei knocked on Constantine's door and pointed outside: "Are you coming or not?"

Even though it was already midnight, Constantine immediately perked up when he heard Lin Bei's words: "Let's go, why not? Do you want to drive?"

Lin Bei waved his hand and turned to walk towards the elevator.

Lin Bei led Constantine as they wandered aimlessly through the streets. Although it was late, there were still a few drunk people lying on the roadside.

The further you go into the city center, the more drunkards you'll find on the streets.

Constantine, hands in his pockets and a cigarette dangling from his mouth, lazily followed behind Lin Bei: "Hey, you didn't call me out just to walk around the streets, did you? You promised to take me to do something exciting."

While Lin Bei released his divine sense to perceive the extremely well-hidden power, he casually replied to Constantine, "Stop rambling, just follow along. I'll give you a good thrill later."

Constantine scoffed, muttering a complaint: "Don't let it turn out to be taking me to a bunch of women for some excitement... I can't handle that."

Lin Bei ignored Constantine and continued walking until he reached a corner, where he paused and stopped.

Constantine raised an eyebrow and stubbed out his cigarette: "Have we arrived?"

Lin Bei nodded slightly: "There's a park around the corner. Someone must have died there. There are police everywhere in the park."

Constantine peered around the corner and, sure enough, saw a police car parked on the opposite side of the street.

After Lin Bei's reminder during the day, Constantine could already tell that something was wrong: "A person died, and why are there so many police cars, and they're armed too? It doesn't seem like they're arresting a serial killer; it seems like there's something difficult to deal with in the park."

Lin Bei was pleased that Constantine was finally using his brain. He nodded slightly and walked towards the park: "You're right, Constantine. Let's go. I'm also looking forward to seeing what's hidden in the park."

Constantine shrugged and quickly caught up with Lin Bei.

Lin Bei possessed the ability to conceal his presence, while Constantine slowed his pace. Under the cover of night, the two sneaked into the park, using the dense woods for cover as they listened to the conversations of the police officers on the main road, making their way to the scene of the incident.

Lin Bei and Constantine noticed that the police on the street were very flustered. They seemed to be describing something as "that terrible thing" instead of referring to a person.

All the police officers who ran out from the scene were pale, trembling, and drenched in sweat, as if they had seen something beyond their comprehension. The officers who ran out were there to call for reinforcements; they ordered all the officers to come over and insisted that their guns be loaded.

"...Josh is dead...Oh God, what a terrible thing that was...That's not something that should exist on Earth! Quick, everyone get there! We must kill that horrible thing!"

Lin Bei and Constantine exchanged a glance and followed silently.

When Lin Bei arrived near the scene, he heard countless gunshots, as well as the continuous cries and curses of the police.

Lin Bei and Constantine stood in the shadows on higher ground and discovered that the incident occurred next to a drainage outlet that was taller than a person on the riverbank.

Many searchlights were set up on the spot to illuminate the open space outside the drain outlet, but the drain outlet had a limited angle, and there was always a dark area.

The police surrounded the open space outside the drain outlet, all pointing their guns and firing into the drain.

Amidst the countless gunshots, Lin Bei discovered that several policemen on the outermost perimeter lay on the ground, their faces severely maimed and disfigured, and their bodies covered in lacerations and wounds caused by something corroding them.

Lin Bei observed briefly, raised an eyebrow, and finally his doubts were resolved.

"This isn't... a facehugger... it's an alien. I never imagined that aliens would have invaded Earth in this world. I wonder if the aliens are more powerful, or the demons are more powerful."

Lin Bei originally thought this world only involved some gods and ghosts, but he didn't expect it to even involve alien creatures like the Xenomorph.

Come to think of it, no wonder he felt that this power did not belong to this world. Power from outer space, of course, does not belong to Earth.
With the answer in his heart, Lin Bei's lips curled into a knowing smile.

Constantine, standing to the side, was puzzled. He had been watching the police below in chaos, with screams, shooting, and bodies being dragged out of the sewers. He couldn't understand what was so powerful, and the methods didn't seem like the work of a demon.

Just as he was wondering, he heard Lin Bei chuckle. Constantine immediately realized that Lin Bei knew what it was.

Constantine clicked his tongue: "Hey, if you know what it is, just tell me. This thing is really powerful and looks exciting."

Lin Bei stroked his chin and briefly explained what aliens were, as well as the dangers of adult and juvenile forms. Then, he patted Constantine on the shoulder with a smile: "These are even more outrageous than demons. Ordinary guns can't hurt them. If you want to fight them hand-to-hand, I can lend you a weapon."

After hearing Lin Bei's description and recalling the police corpses scattered all over the ground, Constantine's face turned ashen.

He insisted on seeking thrills, and now he's in a bind!

After Lin Bei finished speaking, he pretended not to see Constantine's dark face, and with a smile, he used the power of the Shadow King to pull out a jet-black axe from the black liquid.

He handed the black axe to Constantine: "Here you go. You want some excitement, right? Come with me into the sewers later. I don't have the energy to protect you. If you want to be a hindrance, then don't go in. Just stay with those cops."

Even without mentioning the last sentence, Constantine could still shamelessly say he would wait outside. But now that Lin Bei has spoken, Constantine, for the sake of his reputation, would absolutely not allow Lin Bei to break in alone.

Constantine grumbled as he took the black axe Lin Bei handed him. He slung it over his shoulder, glanced at the chaotic scene below, and lit a cigarette: "So, is it time to charge in?"

Lin Bei nodded slightly, grabbed Constantine by the back of his collar, leaped into the air, and landed lightly in front of the sewer opening.

The police were still firing into the sewer opening when two people suddenly appeared from the sky and blocked the exit. The police didn't even have time to stop firing.

Amidst the continuous gunfire, and seeing dozens of bullets hurtling towards Lin Bei and Constantine, all the police officers present paled and roared, "Stop shooting!"

Ke Ren's reaction couldn't keep up with the bullets. The police officers' gazes towards Lin Bei and Constantine changed from initial astonishment to fear in an instant.

They had already anticipated that the two young men who had suddenly barged in would surely die from their bullets.

There was nothing they could do; the area had been cordoned off by the police. Who knew how they managed to sneak in? They recklessly barged into the crime scene; if they died, they only had themselves to blame.

Just as the police were preparing to collect the bodies of the two young men, the handsome black-haired youth smiled slightly, raised his hand, and uttered the phrase "Binding Path No. 81: Severing the Void." The bullets that should have hit the two men seemed to be intercepted by an invisible wall, clattering to the ground.

All the police officers were shocked by the scene. The place, which had just been filled with shouts and gunshots, was now eerily quiet.

Seeing that no one was firing anymore, Lin Bei raised his hand to deactivate "Broken Sky," glanced around at the police officers present, and said calmly, "What's inside isn't something you can handle. You stay outside and don't let anyone else accidentally wander in. Leave the rest to us."

As he spoke, Lin Bei turned around and shoved Constantine, gesturing for him to walk into the sewer opening.

Just as the two were about to step into the sewer, a man who looked like an officer walked out of the police station and stopped Lin Bei and his companion: "Wait, who are you? What makes you think that the police can't handle this and that you two laymen have to rely on us?"

Lin Bei paused, turning to look at his stern-faced superior.

He chuckled, said nothing, and simply raised a finger slightly, pointing at his superior.

The black liquid flew towards the officer at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, knocking his hat off to the ground.

When the officer showed a look of astonishment, Lin Bei lazily waved his hand: "Your bullets can't hit me."

After saying that, Lin Bei, too lazy to listen to their nonsense, strode into the sewer opening.

The police officers on the perimeter looked at each other, unsure of what to do, and all turned to their superiors.

The officer looked grave. He stared at the darkness of the sewer opening for a long time before finally waving his hand, ordering everyone to remain on guard and wait for the two mysterious men to emerge.

Let's get back to Linbei.

After Lin Bei and Constantine entered the sewer, the sewer was damp and dark, and the air was filled with the smell of blood and a faint fishy stench.

Lin Bei and his companion walked forward in silence. When they came to a fork in the road, Lin Bei took the left path without hesitation. Just then, he said casually, "Be careful, there are quite a few aliens ahead."

Lin Bei had naturally used his divine sense to perceive the number of enemies.

Without realizing it, this place turned out to be the aliens' base on Earth.

The city's sewer system is intricate and complex, with most sections over two meters high, allowing humans to walk on them, as well as aliens.

Moreover, the sewers are undisturbed, making them ideal for alien larvae to hatch. (End of Chapter)
