"Not at all."

To everyone's surprise, Yan Chenggong outright refused: "That team is not a real military unit. Their original top leader sacrificed themselves, and then a Wild Superpower User seized the military position, wanting to be emperor."

"Not a real military unit?" the burly man was shocked.

Yang Yuan and Zhao Jiayan also looked surprised.

"I suspected something was off. Even if the military is indifferent, they wouldn't slaughter ordinary people. So, they aren't a real military unit," Zhao Jiayan realized.

Yang Yuan frowned and said, "Even if someone seized the top leader's position, there should be some dissenters, right? Would the soldiers listen to them? If that's an unruly team, might they sabotage us when we fight against the beast tide? If they don't need to protect ordinary people, there's no need to fight the beast tide; they can roam anywhere within a hundred miles."

"It's indeed something to guard against. As far as I know, any disobedient officers or soldiers from that team have likely been killed."

Yan Chenggong said, "There are two strong individuals over there, one being a Mental System Thunder Master, and the other a Rule System Thunder Master. Both control lightning, and together, they can unleash power close to Earth Level strength, annihilating all resistors."

"Even among those using lightning, there are different systems?" the burly man from afar was surprised.

Yang Yuan and Zhao Jiayan were also a bit surprised.

"Of course, even among Fire Element Controllers, there are various systems: Physique System with self-igniting bodies, Perception System with toxic flames, Mental System with fire elements, Rule System with Flame Rules, and so on."

Yan Chenggong elaborated, "Even within the Flame Rules of the Rule System, there are various branches, like the Blue Celestial Fire, Black Divine Fire, Green Flame of Life, White Freezing Fire, among others. The branches of superpowers are diverse. To date, we've never discovered two truly identical superpowers."

"Is that so?" the burly man in the distance was amazed.

Yang Yuan and Zhao Jiayan exchanged a glance because they had seen the Earthquake Trio before, and those three seemed to possess identical superpowers.

Could it be that their abilities actually had distinctions?

Curious, Zhao Jiayan asked, "Can different types of lightning really fuse? How do those two collaborate? As far as I know, the gap between Human Limit and Earth Level is quite significant, even the weakest Earth Level is far superior. Simple collaboration couldn't possibly make them that strong."

Previously, Yang Yuan had killed a trapped Earth Level creature at an altar with a crossbow that had a two-thousand-kilometer range, but ordinary wooden arrows couldn't pierce its defenses.

However, at the Human Limit, such as the previous black tiger, it only took a ten-kilometer range Evil-breaking Arm Crossbow to tear its skin.

And a crossbow with a two-thousand-kilometer range could penetrate without any obstacles.

They were not even in the same league.

"You've seen an Earth Level creature?" the burly man on the distant rooftop looked over in shock.

Yan Chenggong did not seem particularly surprised; instead, he said, "The people we rescued said those two are twins, sharing a tacit connection."

"Since they're so strong, how did you rescue them? Of course, I'm not doubting Director Yan's abilities, just curious. Furthermore..."

Yang Yuan said, "Despite the loud commotion during the previous battle, it didn't feel like Earth Level fluctuations."

In fact, if the experts of that team possessed other superpowers, he wouldn't be too concerned.

But if they were Thunder System superpower users, their speed could be exceedingly fast, which might make aiming difficult. It would be best to prepare in advance to avoid being caught off guard.

"I don't know either. We found those wounded people nearby and did not confront that team. Moreover, the leader of those people is inside the shelter; why don't we ask them together?" Yan Chenggong suggested.

Yang Yuan nodded, "That works. Jiayan..."

"Let's go together. The Mountain God is increasingly hostile towards you. I feel safe only with Yiyi around," Zhao Jiayan whispered.

Remembering that Jiang Yiyi had sensed the bloodshed over there through her perception, Yang Yuan nodded, "Alright."

So, the three of them left the balcony and went out from the first floor.

By the time they reached outside, Yan Chenggong had already jumped off the city wall.

The burly man in the distance likewise jumped down from the rooftop, quickly approaching them, and addressed Yang Yuan, "Hello, Mr. Yang Yuan. Let me introduce myself, Tai Lang, a Steel Body superpower user."

"He's a Demon Hunter free agent from the Demon Extermination Division, the strongest in our team apart from the military. The Demon Extermination Division is like the Adventurer's Guild set up by the Alliance Headquarters," Yan Chenggong explained. "However, since we're no longer in contact with the Alliance Headquarters, we currently issue our own missions."

Tai Lang also said, "We all know Director Yan has conflicts with some people at the headquarters. It's unlikely we'll receive mission rewards from them, so we've just decided to follow Director Yan. We are free superpower users who report to Director Yan but don't take orders from the headquarters."

And he was the strongest among the free superpower users in the team, though he didn't boast about it.

Why hadn't he simply joined the military?

For the same reason, Yan Chenggong couldn't afford him. He was only called upon when needed, and didn't require a regular salary.

Yang Yuan realized that Yan Chenggong's discord with the Alliance Headquarters was not a secret.
