Infinite Hextech, I roam freely across the heavens.

Open the Hextech Token you just obtained.

"Return to Town (Silver): In each world, you can set a return point. If you stay still for 30 seconds, you will return to the set return point."

This Hextech doesn't have combat strength, but Meng Li has no complaints.

After all, it was free, so why would he need snake skin? Besides, he's not a gaming novice; the functionality of this Hextech device is visibly powerful.

In the future, he could set his return target next to the gate and then roam freely, which would significantly improve both safety and time tolerance when exploring the gate.

"Let's go back first."

After checking the Hextech logo and looking at the dark night, Meng Li walked along the alley towards home.

He went in at noon, but when he came back it was already completely dark.

In order to deliver food, Meng Li specially bought a shock-resistant Smartisan phone. Although there are many cracks on its surface, it can still be turned on, which is an unexpected surprise.

Once connected to his phone's network, he discovered that two days had passed in the world of Chaos, but only half a day had passed in the real world. Clearly, the flow of time in the two worlds was different.

Walking along the alley, Meng Li had no intention of exploring in the dark where the Lickers had appeared. Having narrowly escaped death several times in such a short time, he preferred to return home to reflect on the changes in the world and relax his tense heart rather than continue exploring.

"Hopefully the Federation hasn't noticed."

Looking at the lights coming from somewhere in the distance, Meng Li thought to himself.

As a unified political entity, the Ocean Blue Federation has numerous political parties, but its central government has considerable control over local areas. This means that once something attracts the attention of the higher-ups, it will be difficult for them to hide in this world full of cameras.

Although Meng Li guessed that he might not be the only lucky one to awaken his talent, the authorities were unlikely to ignore those strange things and turn their attention directly to him.

But with a physical fitness level of only 86, let alone resisting nuclear bombs, even resisting large-caliber bullets would be difficult. As a newcomer to the superhuman realm, Meng Li felt very insecure.

To be honest, with the boost from the dual Hextech, he's become much stronger. In just two days, he's reached the point where he can smash concrete with a single punch. If word got out, it would probably shock a lot of people.

But now, both the Blue Ocean Federation and the other world are telling him one thing.

He is not strong enough, far from strong enough.

Reality isn't a novel, and your enemies won't give you a chance to develop.

Thinking of that malicious figure in yellow, Meng Li felt an involuntary sense of urgency.

On the way back, Meng Li did not make any special effort to avoid being monitored.

What he needs to do now is to do everything in his power to portray himself as a normal person who has just escaped death.

Stumbling out of the old town, a taxi soon pulled up after I waved it down.

Meng Li got into the car and quickly returned to her rented apartment.

Not long after graduating, his girlfriend from college broke up with him because of the city they lived in, and he has been living alone ever since.

He had always felt that his empty house was rather desolate.

But now, sitting on the sofa, Meng Li felt a sense of peace and comfort for the first time in her cold home.

Meng Li opened her phone and swiped through the news articles.

The events in the old town seem to have been covered up. The news that Meng Li found out was that a biogas pipeline explosion caused casualties, and those responsible have now begun to be dealt with.

With that, Meng Li felt relieved.

It seems the Blue Ocean Federation has already dealt with the Lickers.

Come to think of it, while Lickers are terrifying to ordinary people, to 7.62 they are just moving targets.

If the authorities detect anything amiss, even with light firepower, taking out those Lickers will only take a few bursts.

Meng Li didn't care where those monsters came from; he only checked the news to assess whether the surrounding environment was still safe.

He never intended to be a superhero, and unless absolutely necessary, he didn't plan to act openly and honestly in reality before becoming invincible.

It would be best if the authorities could maintain the safety of his living environment; otherwise, he might have to pack his bags and make a strategic retreat.

Relieved, Meng Li lay down on the bed and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

In the early morning, the familiar alarm clock rang.

Opening her eyes and gazing at the radiant sunrise, Meng Li felt as if she had been transported to another world.

Since graduation, driven by the demands of life, he has never had such a fulfilling night's sleep.

I looked out the window at the sparrows chirping.

"You're back."

Meng Li murmured.

No more sword fights, but a peaceful world where one can rest in peace.

Only those who have experienced war can truly understand the value of peace.

I didn't stay in bed.

With Meng Li's current physical condition, sleep is no longer a necessity for him. As long as the mental fatigue is eliminated, he will always maintain a high level of energy.

As usual, Meng Li got up, washed up, and made herself breakfast while scrolling through Douyin (TikTok).

Yesterday seemed like an illusion. The hostility on Meng Li's face gradually dissipated, replaced by the ordinary Meng Li who was just a food delivery worker.

"Knock knock knock!"

Just then, someone knocked on the security door.

Who is it?

As she called out, Meng Li stepped forward and opened the door.

What came into view were two men in police uniforms.

One looked to be in his forties or fifties, his face bearing the marks of time, while the other looked like he had just graduated, his face still showing undeniable youthfulness.

"Hello, who are you?"

"Hello Mr. Meng, we are from the Huaihai City Public Security Bureau. We are here to ask you about what happened yesterday."

"Yesterday, what happened yesterday?"

Meng Li welcomed the two into the living room and sat opposite them, her gaze somewhat blank.

"Sir, you went to the old town yesterday, right? The surveillance cameras captured you running away. We're just here to understand the situation, please don't be nervous."

"Old Town...Old Town!!!"

The peace that had just been maintained was shattered by fear. Meng Li covered her head, her whole body trembling.

"Calm down, sir, please calm down, it's all over now!"

After a while.

"I'm sorry, I thought it was a dream."

"What do you want to know? I only remember running away, and then, for some reason, the monster disappeared."

"Then I woke up in the evening, and I don't know how I got home."

The fear in Meng Li's voice seemed to be overflowing.

"Sir, have you really not seen anything unusual?"

Looking at the terrified Meng Li, the old policeman spoke carefully, his tone calm, as if carrying a power to reassure people.

"No, there isn't. May I ask where that monster came from?"

"I'm sorry, I still tremble involuntarily when I think about it..."
