Shen Heng stood up from beside the little girl and looked at the others.
"You can all leave now, everything is alright!"
Upon hearing this, several people were about to say thank you and head downstairs when a voice rang out.
"Um, comrade, can we go down with you?"
The speaker was a chubby middle-aged man.
Upon hearing his words, the group of people who were about to leave paused. After hesitating for a moment, they decided not to move and instead looked at Shen Heng and the others.
"Sigh, uncles, I already told you everything's fine, you can just go down now!" Han Ling said helplessly.
The chubby man smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything.
Shen Heng glanced at the chubby uncle, understanding what the man was thinking.
The other party doesn't completely believe him, and is worried that he might encounter the Calamity Beast again when he goes down.
There's nothing wrong with this idea. After all, they don't know if there are other Calamity Beast elsewhere, but they know that they themselves are capable of dealing with Calamity Beast.
It's better to stay with these people than to go down on your own.
"Alright, I'll take you downstairs," Shen Heng said to them.
Upon hearing this, the chubby uncle's face lit up with joy.
"Thank you so much, comrade!"
"Thank you! Thank you!" The others nearby echoed their thanks.
"No need!" Shen Heng shook his head and looked at Han Ling and Wu Cheng.
"You all wait here until Le Gu Nan finishes treatment. I'll take them downstairs first!"
Han Ling nodded.
"I'll come down with you, there's nothing to do here." Wu Cheng yawned.
Shen Heng nodded, his gaze suddenly shifting slightly to the little girl who had just approached him with a question.
The little girl ran up to Xu Kai's side.
"Uncle, thank you. Although you're not Ultraman, you'll definitely be amazing in the future."
Xu Kai was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then smiled and said:
"Then thank you, Uncle!"
"Okay, I'm off then, goodbye Uncle!" The little girl waved to Xu Kai.
"Goodbye." Xu Kai smiled.
He was worried about affecting the treatment's effectiveness, so he didn't dare to make any big movements. Instead, he carefully raised his palm and waved it.
Shen Heng withdrew his gaze.
Wu Cheng, standing nearby, also looked away. "They're lying to you about having kids again!"
Shen Heng smiled upon hearing this, but didn't say anything more, and started walking downstairs.
Wu Cheng followed behind him.
The two led the way, followed by the rescued crowd.
On the way, the chubby uncle who had just asked if he could stay asked, at the urging of the others, he asked again:
"Comrades, are you from the police station?"
"I suppose so," Shen Heng said.
"Well..." the chubby man hesitated for a moment, then continued, "What's going on with these monsters today?"
"Don't worry, someone will explain all this to you later," Shen Heng said.
Seeing that Shen Heng didn't seem to have much to explain, the chubby uncle could only nod and retreat.
Shen Heng glanced at them sideways.
Thankfully, there weren't any unreasonable people who insisted on giving a reason.
Of course, even if they did, it wouldn't have much of an impact, since those who clearly saw the Calamity Beast would have their memories blurred when they left.
Within minutes, the group arrived at the exit on the first floor.
Outside the gate, a large blue tent had been erected sometime earlier.
Shen Heng and Wu Cheng walked towards the tent with practiced ease.
The people following behind them hesitated for a moment, but after seeing the two of them walk in, they eventually followed them in as well.
The blue tent flap was pulled back, revealing a familiar white mist inside.
Shen Heng stepped inside, inhaling the white mist, which was then quickly dissolved by the Origin Power within his body.
The same applies to Wu Cheng.
But those following behind couldn't do anything about it.
After they entered, their heads quickly became dizzy, and they fell completely silent, only knowing to follow forward instinctively.
The tent flap leading outside was pulled open, and Shen Heng stepped out.
Not far away, a figure with neat short hair and another figure with bandages wrapped around their hands were standing next to Fan Hong.
Among them, the figure with neat short hair was talking to Fan Hong, while the figure with bandages was looking around listlessly.
Wang Hai and Wei Leyang!
They already knew through their earpieces that the incident had been resolved before they even reached the mall entrance.
Therefore, upon arrival, they did not go inside, but instead informed Fan Hong and the others to begin arranging the follow-up matters.
Shen Heng lifted his leg and walked towards their location.
Noticing someone coming out of the mall, Wang Hai ended the conversation.
He looked at the man before him, whose face had become somewhat more resolute than it had been three months ago, and his tone remained calm.
You're back?
"Um."
Night, the Supervision Bureau, the restaurant.
Shen Heng responded to the crowd's admonition that he and Le Gu Nan should directly charge forward to fight against one Tier 3 Black Jade Lion and two Tier 2 Black Jade Lion.
"We originally planned to drag it out, but the Black Jade Lion..."
After a short while, the story was finished.
Wei Leyang rested his chin on his bandaged hand.
"Is this what they call 'the other side struck first'?"
"..." Shen Heng said, "You could say that."
"So, you didn't use your ability at first, but instead engaged the two Tier 2 Black Jade Lion, and only suddenly used your ability after the Black Jade Lion King arrived?" Han Ling concluded.
"Mm." Shen Heng nodded.
"Due to limitations in my abilities, I can only use them where they are most crucial."
"Otherwise, once the Calamity Beast realizes what my attack is and consciously defends itself..."
"It won't be so easy to achieve the same amazing effect as the first time."
Wang Hai nodded; he wasn't surprised by this.
Even before Shen Heng went to the training camp, after his Ability Evolution, he already had a general idea of the characteristics of Shen Heng's ability.
He was more puzzled by the other one.
"This time, you didn't kill the Black Jade Lion Black Jade Lion by stabbing them through their mouths or eyes; you just chopped off their heads with a single blow," Wang Hai said, expressing his doubts.
Upon hearing this, the others seemed to realize something and looked at Shen Heng.
"What did you learn at the training camp?" Wang Hai asked.
"Yes, it's a way to develop and apply my abilities, which can greatly increase the attack power when I use weapons." Shen Heng nodded.
"In addition, there's the Falling Wild Goose Steps,' which Echo..."
Shen Heng briefly recounted the improvements he had made at the training camp.
This can minimize the problems that may arise when others are unsure of their abilities during future missions.
Everything else was fine, but when Wu Cheng heard that Shen Heng expected to break through to the Tier 3 in another month or two, he couldn't help but gasp.
"No, you're going to reach Third Tier too?"
