So it didn't take long for the two to improve their fighting synergy, and they became as familiar as comrades-in-arms for many years.

In this state, the beast quickly fell into an absolute disadvantage.

With its skin torn and flesh ripped open, it saw that things were not going well and rushed towards the hole it had just dug, trying to escape.

He rushed straight to it, raised his sword, and looked at Selena.

Although Selena's mind was filled with thoughts like, "What's wrong with this old man? What kind of tacit understanding is this?", she quickly understood He Ao's idea. She stood behind the alien beast, leaped into the air, and clasped her hands together, aiming at the beast's back.

Sparkling electricity danced around her body as she overclocked her energy core, unleashing tremendous power.

The massive electromagnetic pulse even caused nearby electronic devices to malfunction for a short period of time.

A dazzling light burst forth from her palm in an instant, and for a moment it seemed as if the whole world had dimmed, as if the sun itself had been obscured by the light.

The intense light instantly pierced through the beast's body, leaving a huge hole.

The beast froze in place.

Is this girl really that fierce? He Ao roughly understood where the sense of danger emanating from Selena came from back in the wilderness cave.

He gripped his sword tightly, leaped into the air, gathered his inner energy into his palm, and then channeled it into the sword. The sharp blade cleaved through the beast's bones and severed its neck.

It split its entire body in two.

【mission completed】

With the sound of the massive head hitting the ground, a system notification appeared in He Ao's field of vision.

[Task evaluation and settlement in progress...]

[You will return to the original world in 90 seconds]

[Return immediately (90)]

Selena fell helplessly from the sky, her body still crackling with electricity. Overclocking hadn't been entirely without its effects; she had temporarily lost control of her body.

It's like a mechanical doll that's been played with and broken.

She felt a strong arm catch her and keep her standing. After a while, she regained some of her senses and quickly turned to look behind her. "Grandpa, we need you to be a witness in this matter."

Then her words stopped on her lips. There was no one behind her anymore; all that was supporting her was an unfolded folding ladder.

He climbed into the house through the open window; there were 30 seconds left on the countdown to his return.

The research institute was located in the Aston area and not far from Reggie's home, but waiting for the elevator was obviously not enough time, so Heo climbed up the wall from the outside of the building to the thirty-seventh floor and returned home.

He took out the small silver box that had been ejected from Naja, unscrewed it, and inside lay a folded parchment.

He unfolded the parchment, revealing lines of ancient text. At the same time, some distorted thoughts began to try to influence his mind.

He Ao didn't recognize the characters, but he naturally understood what was written on the paper.

[Talent Sequence 45: Collector]

Main materials: 1 Ancient Mist Bead, 1 Corpse Flower

[Auxiliary materials: 1g antique powder, 50ml dew, bark of a century-old tree]

[Preparation method: Grind the corpse flower into powder, mix it with the ancient mist beads and let it stand for 24 hours. Then add the antique powder, dew, and bark, and heat in an 80-degree water bath for 30 minutes.]

As He Ao finished reading the text on the parchment, the entire parchment slowly twisted and turned into dust and dissipated.

Is this the recipe for the Talent Sequence Elixir?

He Ao roughly understood what was written on the paper. He wrote down the recipe and climbed the steps one by one until he reached the bedside.

He slowly picked up a photo frame from the bedside table. In the photo, an old woman was embracing a strong middle-aged man, and the two of them were smiling at the camera.

He Ao picked up a wet wipe from the side and carefully wiped the entire photo frame.

Then he smiled and placed the photo frame back on the bedside table.

"Mother, I did it."

The appearance of that middle-aged man overlapped inch by inch with his current figure.

The silver-haired old man slowly lay down on the bed and closed his eyes little by little.

-

"Hello."

The dark-haired woman sitting in the FBI lobby answered the phone.

"Hello, are you Miss Ecarie?"

"I am, are you?"

"I'm Christos. Are you free tomorrow evening? I'd like to invite you to a dinner party."

"May I ask what kind of dinner it is?"

"Charity fundraising dinner of the 'Dawn Homeless Children's Rescue Association'".

Ekateri stood there, stunned. She slowly lowered the bracelet and looked at the FBI's large screen.

The screen was broadcasting a live news report about the monster attack in Aston District, and her gaze fell on the photo of the giant monster. In the corner of the photo, a blurry silver-haired old man was resolutely charging towards the terrifying beast, sword in hand.

-

"Yes, that's about it... Did that old man pass away at home? Okay... I understand."

Selena fell silent.

“I will apply for a Federal Red Star Medal for him.”

Smith said softly on the other end of the phone, "The Federal Red Star Medal is the highest medal awarded to civilians who sacrifice their lives in the fight against the alien beasts. It is to reward those heroes who, although they have no responsibility, still risk their lives to save others."

"This isn't about getting a mayor..."

Selena opened her mouth.

"This medal doesn't need to go through the mayor,"

Smith said calmly

He said, "Defending human civilization is the responsibility of the Federation."

"Thank you."

Selena lowered her head and said softly.

“Actually, I envy him,” Smith suddenly said. “I hope that when I’m old, I can fight the monsters to the very end, just like him.”

"director···"

Selena looked at Smith.

“We’ve gone off on a tangent,” Smith shook his head. “I’m going to go and cause trouble for those idiots now. They had obvious news of strange beasts, but they turned them away because of their stupidity. If you and that old man hadn’t been there, who knows what kind of disaster would have happened today.”

“Oh, right,” he remembered something, “aren’t you on holiday this afternoon? I’ll give you an extra half-day off tomorrow. You’ve worked hard, enjoy your holiday.”

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Ugh--

Selena sighed and rubbed her face.

"Sister," a somewhat childish voice came from behind, "Is something on your mind again?"

Upon hearing this, Selena took a deep breath and smiled.

She straightened her casual long dress, and after making sure everything was alright, she slowly turned around.

A little boy wearing a white jacket, holding a toy gun, and carrying a small bag came into her view.

"Sorry, something happened when I was leaving get off work and I was a little delayed."

“It’s okay,” the little boy shook his head, picked up his small bag and offered it to Selena, “a sausage, lots of meat, and it’s still hot. You won’t be so unhappy if you eat it.”

Selena paused for a moment, then took the small bag from the little boy's hand and took his hand in hers. "How about I take you to meet an uncle and auntie today? They really like children."

“Oh,” the little boy nodded, being led forward by Selena, “Do they have more than a thousand federal dollars?”

“Yes,” Selena explained patiently, though she didn’t know why the little boy was asking the question. “They may not be very rich, but they can still come up with more than a thousand federal dollars.”

"Well."

The boy kicked a pebble and followed Selena, the glow of the setting sun spreading out beneath their feet.

"A charity gala! And it's for us!" The red-haired girl suddenly pushed Icarus down onto the sofa.

"Holy crap, Carrie, that's awesome! Where did you get this? If we finish this, we'll have enough money to build a huge school!"

"Tell me, are you some kind of secret heiress hiding your identity? Hurry up and admit it! Aren't you going to get your best friend a little gift? I just need a sports car, I'm not picky, any brand is fine, it has to be pink, pretty, and a convertible."

"Annie, stop fooling around." Ejacula pushed her best friend aside. She knew that this charity gala had little to do with her. She looked at her best friend seriously, "Have you decided what to call our school?"

"Isn't it called Ander Elementary School?"

Annie was a little confused.

"How about calling it Ander Ridgeet Elementary School?"

Ekateri thought for a moment and then said.

Why add this name all of a sudden?

"It's not something that can be explained in a short time, what do you think?"

"I think it's a good idea?" Annie blinked, staring at her best friend. "Then what are you going to write for the school motto? We weren't originally..."

Are you planning to use the story of Ander? You need to think this through. A good school motto can influence these children's entire lives.

Ekali was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "The night may be cold, but there will always be someone to light a torch."

"Huh?" Annie was taken aback. "Carrie, you've changed. How can you say something so philosophical?"
