My wife is the stand-in.

'The light from the supernatural ability is intense, but it's irregular and constantly changing, without any particularly eye-catching highlights,' Amanosaki thought to himself.

Hinata Hyuga activated her Byakugan to see through the smoke, simultaneously sending a telepathic message: 'I haven't detected any particularly regular energy flow here either; they're probably just a bunch of weaklings.'

“Small fry, hehe…” Amanosaki closed his eyes, sensing Hinata’s perspective, and wiped away his sweat. “I think it’s like ants killing an elephant.”

"High-energy reaction detected!"

The engineer's slightly panicked voice rang out in the channel, "There are a lot of them on the other side!"

Number 3 shouted loudly, "Don't panic! We're all ready!"

"Roar!"

The murky smoke was dispersed, revealing a group of bizarre, grotesque, and repulsive monsters shouting in a language that humans could hardly understand.

Amanosaki didn't think too much about it; it was nothing more than words like "kill," "eat," and "fuck."

It has little nutritional value.

Amanosaki held Hinata's soft, tender hand and said, "Let's not go together. I'll go down first, and you stay here."

Hinata drawled out "Eh," feigning displeasure as she crossed her arms, making her breasts appear even more prominent.

"Why aren't you staying here? I want to go out and have fun too!"

Hinata lowered her voice, her deep, sweet voice making Amanosaki tremble.

He couldn't help but think of himself and Hinata... it seemed they hadn't had any experience in that area yet. Thinking of this, he bit his lip, suppressing his anger, and stared fiercely at Hinata, this beautiful woman who was usually gentle and virtuous, but whose occasional, deliberate, mischievous behavior was unbearable to him.

He shook his head to clear his mind, grabbed Hinata's shoulders, and after catching his breath, finally managed to banish the thoughts, muttering vicious curses in his mind:

'I'll make you meow so loudly tonight!'

Amanosaki said, "We're not the main characters in this battle, so there's no reason for us to fight so hard. Besides, what if there's an ambush? Hinata, your agility is better than mine. If something goes wrong, we'll need you to save people."

"Save who? Those soldiers? They each weigh several hundred pounds, I can't carry many of them. I can only carry one person at most, otherwise I won't be fast enough." Hinata pressed her index finger to her cheek, her other hand on her slender waist, her buttocks raised, bending over, and tilting her chin up, showing off her perfect figure under her hoodie.

"Go ahead and torture me!" Amanosaki groaned, closing his eyes in pain. "You only dare to show off here. If you're so capable, go downstairs and perform a dance for everyone!"

"No~ no~!" Hinata took a step forward, her breasts resting against Amanosaki's chest, gently rubbing against him, her warm breath lingering on Amanosaki's flushed, sensitive neck skin.

"My dance moves are only for you to see~"

Whispering sweet nothings, Amanosaki almost lost control of himself.

In the end, it was the clamor of those noisy demons and heretics that triggered Amanosaki's battlefield instincts, bringing him back to his senses.

Amanosaki blushed and hurriedly pushed Hinata away to keep his distance, looking as embarrassed as a novice.

"Anyway! If you can't save the others, that's fine. You don't need to worry about the heroes; they're all seasoned veterans. Just make sure Hinata takes those reporters away."

"Eh~" Hinata tilted her head listlessly, carefully observing Amanosaki. When she realized that the other was serious, she spread her hands. "This is so boring... Okay, okay, I'll keep a close eye on these little reporter babies."

"I'm leaving."

After saying this, Amanosaki leaped into the surging demonic path.

Hinata was left alone, her hands in her pockets, seemingly lost in thought.

A few seconds later, Amanosaki's head suddenly popped out from under the rock, and before Hinata could react in surprise, he said seriously:

"Hinata, those short videos online that flaunt your sex appeal are not good. Watch less of them and learn less from them."

After saying that, he hurriedly ran away.

Hinata, seeing Amanosaki's disheveled appearance—like a donkey with firecrackers tied to its rear end—couldn't help but chuckle.

"Hehehe... You're totally defenseless against my giggling! I think I could learn a lot more from you!"

Chapter 197: A Tender Phone Call

Amanosaki was the first to jump in, wielding a large spear and sweeping away all sorts of demons and heretics around him, looking quite imposing.

But that’s as far as it goes.

Amanosaki deliberately didn't use the tip of the gun, but rather the shaft.

The swordsmen standing among the deer fortresses had even more discerning eyes. They were initially a little nervous, but they immediately realized that Amanosaki was deliberately holding back.

This invigorated them.

Zeng Aman even whispered encouragement to his fellow members of the branch:

"Brothers! With so many evil spirits and heretics right before us, don't say that Hero Amanosaki didn't give us a chance!"

So, when the warriors were facing a formidable enemy for the first time in an organized attack by evil forces, the braver knights had already rallied their friends to try and cross the fortress to get the first kill.

"Hey! You guys... listen to my orders!"

The machine gun on his shoulder was already activated, and Number 3, who was aiming at the large gun that looked like a nail gun in his hand, looked angrily at the swordsman who had entered the firing range of the soldiers.

However, the heroes didn't care about any of that. The radicals had already awakened their supernatural abilities, shining like gold.

These passionate fellows stirred up the fervor of the conservatives still remaining in the deer fortress.

They looked at their colleagues, who roamed among the ugly demons, like cloud birds dancing in a thicket of thorns, their clear and melodious voices singing "Ha!"

"Wow!" A precocious-looking swordsman adjusted his rain hat, which he had disguised as a bamboo hat, and exhaled a puff of hot air. "This is the life of a swordsman I've always imagined."

A battle between good and evil, with heroes' blood staining the ground.

The remaining heroes couldn't resist any longer, so they picked up their weapons, activated their supernatural abilities, and joined the battle.

Amanosaki, who had originally been bearing the brunt of the attacks from evil spirits, quickly found relief after the intervention of the heroes.

Even because of the extra effort of his colleagues, he was able to rely on enhancement magic and gem magic to leap around in the monster horde without getting a single petal on him.

Unfortunately, for grassroots heroes, evil spirits and heretics in cities and towns are always a minority. After all, apart from starving evil spirits, no one would openly plunder human lives.

Evil spirits and heretics in towns usually disguise themselves and hide their evil deeds among a bunch of murders, thefts, intimidation and fraud cases.

Therefore, in addition to killing evil spirits to earn points in the Heroes' Mountain, accumulating fame, and performing around, the grassroots heroes of the gang also had to "work" at the police station from time to time, helping the police solve cases. A few even took the exam to become auxiliary police officers and stayed there permanently.

Compared to the demons that require investigation and the painstaking efforts of detectives to catch, these strange creatures that live in the mountains and have not seen humans for a long time are much more endearing in the eyes of the heroes.

After all, on the river, no matter how many four-clawed scaled fish you kill, they are still just fish. Even if your points increase quickly, it's not right for the heroes to pass off inferior fish as monsters when they travel the world.

The entire Four-Clawed Scaled Fish clan was directly regarded as a branch-level demon, and the King Fish held absolute dominance, so along the way, Amanosaki 'ate' his way to a point of being bloated and fat.

"This is mine!"

The demon, with a triangular head like a grasshopper and a long, multi-legged body like a centipede, caught Li Junzi's eye at first glance.

With a tearing sound, Li Junzi's muscles changed, tearing his clothes, and two extra pairs of legs grew from his body. His hands also transformed into scythes, making him look as grotesque as a demon.

"The mantis stalks the cicada!" Li Junzi and the demon wrestled together, and in about ten seconds, Li Junzi beheaded the dog.

Not only him, but also Zeng Aman and other chivalrous figures, filled with great passion and with the spirit of taking as much as possible, rushed forward one after another.

As for filming the military infantry brigade? There were newspaper reporters there!

Anyway, we haven't received any clear instructions to cooperate. We're just eager to protect our territory and its people!

Number 3's face was dark and ugly, like stinky tofu. Amanosaki, on the other hand, was very happy.

Because Lin Shuyu secretly contacted him.

Lin Shuyu was very dissatisfied that she was forced to go to the army headquarters by the army group commander Zheng Lun and could not meet with Amanosaki.

So she used the little programming knowledge she had learned before and the information stored on her tablet—she had stored a lot of knowledge about subjects she hadn't learned before, in case she couldn't quickly grasp and deal with the situation after the internet was cut off.

In addition, she quickly became friends with several clerical staff members and broke free from isolation by secretly sneaking into the server room and cracking the system both physically and online.

Amanosaki knocked down a demon that looked like a lynx with a single punch, while saying to Lin Shuyu in his earpiece, "Me over here? It's fine, I'm safe here." Seeing this, several swordsmen behind him roared and jumped up, their supernatural ice and iron fists smashing into the demon's neck, breaking it.

"Don't worry about me, Hinata is with me." Amanosaki jumped up and leisurely passed over the two demons' heads, letting the two of them collide and become dizzy.

"Hinata! Is that the one from your debut match!?" Lin Shuyu had taken a liking to the young man who went against the flow of people when she first saw Amanosaki's video, so she naturally remembered his first official appearance with his superpower.

Moreover, having collaborated for so long, coupled with emotional factors, Lin Shuyu has memorized almost all of Amanosaki's works.

"Yes, what?"

Amanosaki dodged the projectile from the toad-like demon, which reeked of rotten flesh, by leaping backward in a backflip.

These amphibious demons typically live only in swamps and ponds, are very solitary, and rarely cooperate with other demons.

This further proves that someone has put a lot of effort into organizing people behind this incident.

It's probably that self-righteous Taoist.

"I want to see my sister like this with my own eyes," Lin Shuyu said, somewhat unwilling.

She had seen all the manifestations of the "perfect type," but not Hinata Hyuga, who left the deepest impression on her.

Amanosaki was secretly pleased, thinking to himself that the girl probably didn't have a chance, as she was busy with files and documents. "It's okay, I'll come over when you're done with your work."

Lin Shuyu sighed deeply, her voice filled with a melancholy that was "like a lament, like a yearning, like a weeping lament, like a lingering melody, never ceasing to be heard":

"I'm afraid it's not possible. I won't be able to leave today, tomorrow, or even the day after. I'm still working on charts right now. If it weren't for the cubicles, I wouldn't even be able to answer your call."

"It's not that serious, is it?"

Amanosaki was dumbfounded, thinking to himself, "Lord Kohaku, you're really something! I asked you to find Lin Shuyu something to keep her occupied, and you're making her write history books? And cubicles... What kind of field camp has cubicles? Staff officers have to sit in big offices!"

Amanosaki instantly sensed something was wrong, and with a sudden burst of strength, he smashed half the head of the menacing, mole cricket-like demon in front of him.

"Oh, sorry, sorry, don't die yet!" Amanosaki apologized to the mole cricket repeatedly, and while the creature was still breathing, he kicked it into the group of swordsmen.

The swordsmen swiftly and cleanly beheaded their enemies.

The evil forces are getting closer and closer to the fortress, and some soldiers have already opened fire. If we delay even a second, the chances of the soldiers intervening fully increase, and our good days will be over.

"I'm at the army group headquarters; my specific unit number is confidential."

"What's going on? I didn't... I remember you were in the military camp on the cliff, weren't you?"

"Yeah, I was here before. But suddenly an army group commander showed up, his rank was kept secret, and he suddenly appeared in front of me, half forcing and half coercing me to be dragged over." Lin Shuyu grumbled in dissatisfaction.

Amanosaki narrowed his eyes: "Who dragged you, that general?"

"They are female soldiers, one on the left and one on the right."

"Oh... the army group commander should know about your family, right?"

"Yes, but he just took me away."
