"I see, I see. But how can you prove that what you're saying is true?"

"You'll know if you come with me now, won't you?"

Green hesitated for a moment, looking at the serious expression on the young girl's face. Then, he turned to Aloof and the others for their input, seeing that they all had a look of uncertainty. Finally, it was Aloof who spoke up on their behalf.

"It's fine if you want to go, but before that, I have to ask, who is your mother?"

This young girl with black hair suddenly appeared and claimed to be Green's daughter from a parallel world. Naturally, the identity of her mother was the most important concern for Aloof and Lily. However, the girl's answer was disappointing to them all.

"You probably don't know my mother... This is actually my first time seeing you all."

From the girl's expression, it seemed she was being sincere. Aloof immediately looked at Green with a suspicious gaze, and he could only raise his hands in defense.

Finally, after the girl's earnest pleas, Green agreed to accompany her to her world. They found an empty space, and suddenly, white flames appeared around the girl's body. The space shook under this pressure, surprising even Green.

Inside her seemingly fragile body was such tremendous power.

Following the girl's lead, Green mirrored her actions, and with a pull of her hands, a crack in the space appeared in front of them, connecting to another world.

After saying their farewells to Aloof and the others, Green followed the black-haired girl, who might be his daughter, through the crack in space.

According to the girl's account, Green in her parallel world had a terminal illness, and coincidentally, Earth was being attacked by aliens. So, under the guidance of Green in her parallel world, she came to this world to find her true self.

That was the gist of it; the specifics would be discussed later.

After several seconds of stepping into the crack in space, a bright light suddenly flickered before them. Green instinctively raised his hand to shield his eyes, realizing that something was shining towards him.

It was then that a trembling voice came from the girl.

"Oh no, it's the little black troops..."

"The little black troops? What are they?"

Before the explanation could be given, Green felt an impending danger and instinctively reached out, gripping onto something hard and solid.

Upon closer inspection, what attacked him was a conical spear.

The sharp tip, casting an icy gleam, was less than a millimeter away from the girl's slender neck.

Green clenched his fist, forcibly breaking the spear into two pieces. The girl, witnessing this scene, was clearly astonished.

Only then did Green have the chance to examine the appearance of the assailants.

There were approximately twenty or thirty attackers, who, at first glance, appeared to be humanoid, but upon closer inspection, were far from human.

Their skin appeared rubbery, almost metallic, but they didn't seem mechanical. Instead, they resembled individuals wrapped in that material.

These beings were entirely black, holding similar spears as weapons.

Though uncertain of what they were, Green was sure that these individuals were enemies.

"Let's leave the explanation for later. I'll deal with these guys first."

"Be careful..."

No sooner had the girl spoken than she felt her words were unnecessary.

Green swiftly dispatched the terrifying little black troops with just a few punches and kicks.

The bodies of the dozens of little blacks lay on the ground, bent in painful postures as if they were fractured, while various parts of their bodies twitched with electric sparks.

After dealing with the attackers, Green surveyed the dark environment around him, noticing the ruins of a city everywhere. The scene felt like the end of the world.

Finally, Green focused his gaze on the massive airship hovering in the sky. From its appearance, it was clear it was not of Earth's origin, making its nature almost self-evident.

"Let's go and meet the me of this world first."

Compared to the extraterrestrial invaders, Green was more interested in the parallel version of himself. However, if the girl was just spinning lies, Green would also make her understand the consequences of lying.

Under the guidance of the girl, the two swept through the ruins, and the reality was much worse than Green had imagined. Almost everywhere was the wreckage of the city. Among the fallen ruins, Green found a faded sign with the words "KUAI LE" written in white, but it was in a sorry state. Apart from that, Green also found some other familiar brands, which made him believe even more in the girl's words.

During the journey, the girl kept updating Green on the current situation. So far, there was only one SSS-level superhero left with the ability to fight. With the help of the mechanical soldiers, they could hold on for some time, but it wouldn't be long before the defenses of the entire Earth would collapse completely. As for Green, the once-called strongest superhuman, he was bedridden due to an inexplicable illness.

It could be said that the current residents were in a dire situation, with no hope in sight. However, Green's arrival had reignited hope in the girl's heart.

"By the way, I still don't know your name. Did I come up with it, or your mother?" Green asked.

"My name is the combination of you and Mom. It's Geli, but most people call me Lili..." the girl replied.

"Your name is Li?" Green's heart shook, and he already had a conclusion in his mind, but he didn't show much emotion. If everything was true, the condition of his own self in this world should be of more concern.

Meanwhile, a fierce battle was taking place not far away. Ever since the extraterrestrial invaders arrived on Earth, the superheroes had been retreating, and now there was barely any safe place on the whole planet. Most of the surviving superheroes were either heavily injured or on their way to becoming heavily injured.

The battlefield was filled with high-powered beams, and they all came from the enemy. "How are you feeling, Night Baron?" asked someone.

"It's just a minor injury. I can still fight," Night Baron replied.

In the safe zone, Long Tao carried Night Baron, whose shoulder had been pierced by a beam, back. Compared to the heavily injured superheroes on the scene, Night Baron's injury was considered minor.

"No, you're one of the few remaining SSS-level fighters. Losing one is a huge blow to humanity," Long Tao said seriously, as he slowly transferred his own aura into Night Baron.

Soon, Long Tao began to feel a bit dizzy, and his vision became blurred. He immediately stopped transferring his aura. Even though he now possessed SS-level power, compared to those extraterrestrial invaders, he was like an ordinary person facing a super villain, completely powerless. If it weren't for the fact that the aliens occasionally sent some low-level soldiers to mock them, they would have been wiped out long ago.

At that moment, Night Baron sighed heavily. "If that person could regain their strength, the so-called universal overlords wouldn't pose a threat at all."

"But that person..." Long Tao looked at a certain direction in the room and shook his head.

Just then, the room suddenly flashed with a red light, accompanied by an urgent alarm. At the same time, a virtual image projected the scene from outside. A large mass of dark objects flew out from under a giant airship in the sky, rushing downwards like a surging wave. Many mechanical soldiers and superheroes who were fighting against the small black objects were engulfed in the black ocean.

"In the end, it's still not enough," Night Baron's gaze turned towards a door deep in the room, and his mind was filled with countless thoughts. He hated his current powerlessness. If he had even one percent of that person's power, he wouldn't be in such a miserable state.

Long Tao didn't say anything more. He called White Snow, who was watching over the wounded warriors, and the two of them transformed into a metallic armored form, each with a small glider, and with a thunderous roar, they took off into the sky, heading towards the swarm of invaders that darkened the sky.

Night Baron struggled to stand up and also made his way to the outside. This large-scale attack wasn't the first time, and with each occurrence, one safe zone would disappear.

The Night Baron could clearly see his own destiny, and the fear in his heart was gradually consumed by a resolute belief. He saw his body radiating a brilliant, multicolored light, while faint white flames erupted from its surface.

"If you're coming, then come! I, the Night Baron, will accompany you to the end!"

Letting out a loud roar, the Night Baron charged towards the black wave with a conviction of death. He forcefully broke through a white path with his body.

However, as the source energy was depleted, the arm pierced by the special light immediately sent a sharp pain, causing him to grit his teeth.

Though this safe zone was not the last refuge for humankind, it was undoubtedly the most important one. The Night Baron wasn't sure if humanity would be wiped out in the future, but as long as he still lived, he would fight the enemy with all his might.

But wave after wave of the black tide quickly left the Night Baron's body covered in scars. Even he was in such a state, not to mention the other SS and S-class heroes.

The motorcycle transformed by his teammate, Long Tao, had long since succumbed to the black smoke among the ruins below, with a unconscious White Snow next to it.

The ruins below were filled with superhuman heroes of unknown life and death. The only ones still putting up a strong resistance were the comparatively lucky and powerful heroes.

Within the onslaught of attack after attack, the Night Baron gradually lost his white source energy shield.

His vision was slowly devoured by the black tide, and he desperately tried to grasp onto his fading consciousness, forcibly activating the depleted source energy within his body. He no longer knew if his body still had any senses.

In the end, the thread of consciousness was severed, and the last ray of light in the Night Baron's vision vanished completely.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a massive explosion resounded in his ears. The black tide retreated like waves, and once again, a ray of light appeared before the Night Baron's eyes. At the same time, he noticed a familiar figure in front of his field of view.
