Demon Squad!

Above the clouds, a spaceship, like a silver arrow piercing through the sky, sliced through the thick cloud cover and sped towards the ground.

Inside the spaceship, the four individuals wore serious expressions. There was no hint of personal emotion in their words; it was all about putting the team first.

A white man, dressed in a simple white robe embroidered with intricate silver patterns, with deep-set eyes, began his report after focusing his gaze.

"Mental power scan successful. The opponent is not using mental power shielding. Estimation suggests no mental power controllers, so a Psychic Link is not needed. Recommend using Plan B for combat."

"Known opponent count is a team of fifteen to twenty people. Excluding Daniels and the plot characters piloting the ship, the maximum estimated team members are fourteen, with a deviation of no more than one."

"Strangely, four of them have very weak presences, and their five senses are shielded. It's possible they have special skills, but I estimate..."

"A high probability they are a Farming Team."

"Dio Brook, it appears your analysis is correct." A girl, seemingly fourteen or fifteen years old, dressed in luxurious clothing, with a delicate face and elegant demeanor, her long hair gently tied back with an exquisite hairpin, spoke softly.

But "her" Adam's apple betrayed him.

Zang Ting wiped the subtly glowing energy crystal bracelet on her wrist and said in a soft voice, "Based on the information we currently have, the teams we can be matched with in a Team Battle should only be the South Flame Continent Team, the North Ice Continent Team, and the Heavenly God Team."

"According to the information from the Heavenly God Team, they haven't received any members from the Central Continent Team for a long time."

"Other teams have never engaged in combat with the Central Continent Team."

"Our team has never replicated members from the Central Continent Team."

"Therefore..."

"I can conclude," Zang Ting lightly blew at her bangs and continued, "that someone in the Central Continent Team is farming."

A man in a black robe, with an ancient-looking long sword at his waist, nodded. "Then the Central Continent Team will have one or more overly strong individuals."

"Arno." He turned his gaze to the muscular man wearing a specially made tight combat suit.

"You should have no problem holding back their second-in-command using the Muscle Fruit."

"I need you to take the Green Goblin Glider alone and lure them out."

After speaking, he turned his gaze to the mental power controller, Dio Brook. "You will deal with the rest of the Central Continent Team's combat personnel as quickly as possible."

Finally, the black-robed man locked his gaze on the male-presenting Zang Ting.

"Black Water Technology from Alien: Covenant is extremely effective in city massacres. You must get your hands on it."

Zang Ting stopped touching up her makeup. "Understood, Captain!"

The black-robed man touched the sword at his waist. "I will handle their strongest combatant."

"Then... let us 'purify' the Central Continent Team, this tumor!"

"Yes!"

(I don't know why the AI made this so cool. No matter what I do, it's as cool as you guys. Let's leave it at that.)

The Engineer Planet was a planet very similar to Earth.

It was full of vegetation, minerals, and water sources.

Unfortunately, ever since the Synthetic Human David piloted the spaceship, originally tasked with attacking Earth, back to the Engineer Planet and irrigated it with "Black Water"...

The spores of the entire planet became attached to a virus that would produce Alien eggs inside the body after inhalation...

From then on, all life on this planet disappeared...

Until...

Meng Yao looked at the six thousand frozen Earth colonists on the Covenant, and her unease was finally suppressed.

"Is David finished with the repairs?"

"Still... still repairing, in the process of repairing." The Black Girl Jones, who had regained her freedom, answered tremblingly.

"It doesn't matter anymore..." Meng Yao stared at the progress on the screen. "In another twenty minutes... I will have an..."

"Alien army!"

"Da da da!"

Footsteps rushed down the corridor!

Ruan Wei, panting heavily, reported fawningly, "C-Captain, the Covenant has detected a small, drone-like high-speed moving object approaching us from the northwest! W-What should we do?"

Meng Yao snorted and pointed to the walkie-talkie at her waist. "I don't want to see you, got it?"

"Yes!"

Ruan Wei quickly gave an awkward smile, lowered his head, and exited the room...

Pressing the walkie-talkie, Meng Yao blinked. "The vanguard is here. It's likely a decoy. Go take a look."

"Okay."

The engine of the Green Goblin Glider emitted a low roar, intertwined with the sound of the wind.

Arno, wearing a specially made tight combat suit, his muscle lines even more prominent with the glider's vibration, locked his gaze downwards, searching for the possible hiding place of the Central Continent Team...

Suddenly!

Arno's peripheral vision caught a high-speed moving target on the ground!

Arno adjusted his glider, stabilizing it above Da Qiang. His voice carried down through the glider's speaker. "Hey, down there. Shouldn't we have a little chat?"

Da Qiang looked up and saw Arno in the air, a provocative smile spreading across his face.

Instead of answering Arno, he suddenly stopped and slammed his palm hard against a large tree beside him.

His strength was so immense that the entire tree was severed with a single blow, crashing down with a thud.

Da Qiang picked up the fallen tree, aimed it at Arno in the air, and with a roar, hurled it like a javelin!

The tree spun through the air, whistling as it flew straight towards Arno!

Arno's pupils constricted slightly. He reacted instantly!

Under his control, the Green Goblin Glider rapidly ascended, narrowly avoiding the tree's attack.

The tree flew past below him and landed heavily on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Da Qiang stood on the ground, his breathing steady, his eyes gleaming with the fire of battle.

He looked up at Arno in the air, a hint of a provocative smile on his lips. "Do you just fly around up there? All that muscle is for nothing!"

Da Qiang's challenging voice echoed across the open plain. His figure on the ground appeared solitary and powerful!

Before his words had fully faded, Arno leaped down from the Green Goblin Glider, like a falling meteorite, rushing towards Da Qiang with astonishing speed and power!

BOOM!

With a loud crash, Arno's feet slammed hard into the spot where Da Qiang stood. The ground cracked under the immense impact, dust flew up, forming a large crater!

Dust billowed, temporarily obscuring vision, but everyone could feel that powerful force!

However, as the dust gradually settled, a shocking scene unfolded before everyone's eyes!

The heavily muscled Da Qiang was holding Arno's legs with both hands, having taken the full force of the strike from the sky without falling!

His legs were deeply embedded in the ground, but his body remained upright, like an unshakeable mountain!

This sight left the Reincarnator Team's Newcomers dumbfounded. For the first time, they had a direct sense of a Veteran's strength and terror!

Ono Kei covered her mouth, her eyes wide. She gasped, her voice trembling slightly. "Are... are these even still human?!"
