Soon, the Zepelion Ray gradually suppressed the Mephistopheles Ray and gradually compressed the opponent's area. As Mephistopheles glared angrily, it approached the opponent until it suddenly crashed into his chest!

"boom!"

Mephistopheles, who was instantly thrown to a distance, gradually lost consciousness and began his demise.

The powerful stream of light continued its relentless assault, seemingly determined to pierce through Mephistopheles.

"Jie!!"

Dark Tiga exerted force with his arm, and the dark light suddenly intensified. Mephisto's body, which was on the verge of collapse, was like a last straw being pressed down, and he fell heavily to the ground, his hands also falling limply to the ground.

"boom!!"

The final rays of light exploded in mid-air, as if celebrating their victory or paying tribute to a fallen dark giant.

Its milky white eyes were tinged with red by the dark red energy generated by the explosion, making its black body appear even more dazzling.

Tiga stood silently until the dark domain, having lost its power, gradually collapsed and dissipated, and Tiga's figure slowly disappeared along with it.

...

"What am I doing..."

Mephistopheles was dead. Standing in the villa, Xia Muxiong suddenly came to his senses, looked around, and felt a headache coming on from the familiar yet unfamiliar environment. He raised his hands tremblingly, and then slumped to the ground with his head in his hands.

The gradually resurfacing memories kept assaulting his brain. Xia Muxiong gritted his teeth and endured it, as the shocking images that kept appearing in his memory stimulated his mind again and again.

"What exactly did I do?"

Slowly lowering his hand, Xia Muxiong sat on the messy ground, his eyes filled with pain. He murmured in disbelief.

pat.

Back in reality, Xia Muqingxue looked at her father and cried silently.

Tears silently slid down her cheeks and dripped onto the ground without any obstruction.

As if sensing something, Xia Muxiong subconsciously looked up, his bloodshot eyes widening abruptly when he saw the familiar figure.

A trembling voice rang out.

"Qingxue!!"

Upon hearing this emotionally charged call, Qingxue's eyes widened at first, then she was filled with disbelief.

Unable to contain her emotions any longer, she lunged at her father and hugged him tightly, her body still trembling slightly from overwhelming excitement.

...

"What a touching scene..."

Yuan Huixia held the Dark Spark in one hand and a card in the other.

Standing outside the villa, he looked quite casual.

He glanced into the room and watched through the glass as the father and daughter embraced and wept with joy, and sighed.

"Is that so, Mr. Lucifer?"

Hui Xia withdrew her gaze and looked at a blurry figure standing not far away.

"You broke our agreement... Yuan Huixia!"

The figure uttered the last three words almost through gritted teeth.

"Why do you say that, Mr. Lucifer?"

Hui Xia seemed puzzled. He tilted his head in confusion and asked.

"This was clearly an accident; your men attacked my men first."

"Put yourself in their shoes, Mr. Lucifer."

"good very good."

Lucifer laughed in anger, coldly tossing out, "Then let's settle this with our skills, Yuan Huixia. I will surely plunge you into endless darkness."

"True power is always controlled by oneself; external forces... will always be crushed."

After saying that, the illusory figure disappeared.

Hui Xia was left standing there, her expression gradually turning cold.

"Threatening me? You're just a mind, who gave you the courage?"

With a wave of his hand, a black and red card floated out of the villa and landed in Huixia's hand.

"Mephisto, it's an unexpected bonus."

"but..."

"Who told you I can only use the power of cards?"

"Soon..."

Hui Xia turned around, facing the moonlight, and slowly stepped onto the earth shrouded in night, walking towards the outside of the residential area.

Behind him was a long shadow.

...

The next day.

Xia Muxiong, who had recovered, looked at his daughter who was all ready and gave her some final instructions.

“The selection process for UPIC is extremely competitive, with tens of thousands of people applying this time.”

After screening of materials and political vetting, there are currently fewer than a thousand people remaining.

The first round of preliminary selections was conducted at venues provided by the defense bases of each district, and the results were submitted to the UPIC headquarters, who then decided who would participate in the formal selection.

Although I could allow you to skip all the procedures and go straight to the final interview with a UPIC member.

But I didn't do that, Qingxue, do you understand?

I noticed the long-absent concerned gaze and my father's meaningful words.

Qingxue nodded emphatically: "I understand. Father hopes that I can enter UPIC based on my own strength, so that I will have the ability to protect myself or even defeat various supernatural phenomena in the future."

"Yes."

"This is not about working in a welfare department or a pension department, but about working on the front lines."

Xia Muxiong's expression softened slightly, but his tone remained extremely solemn.

It is certainly commendable that my daughter has such determination.

But this is not child's play.

It's very possible that you could lose your life if you're not careful.

So he's feeling conflicted right now.

I feel a sense of relief, relieved that my daughter has such awareness.

However, his father's instincts told him that he should stop it, not agree to it.

But facing the daughter he'd neglected for so many years…

He was always filled with guilt.

Therefore, faced with his daughter's determined gaze, he was unable to bring himself to refuse her.

We can only offer her as much help as possible.

He turned around to face the other buildings surrounding the villa.

"In addition to some current high-ranking officials, there are also many families of martyrs who sacrificed their lives because of the monster. They account for 70 percent of the entire Defense Forces Family First District."

He paused, withdrew his outstretched arm, and then sighed softly, saying, "They receive generous monthly pensions, but I doubt they are happy."

“Since UPIC appeared in Dinozo, the mortality rate has been basically 50%, and the injury rate is even 100%. Many times, even the captain, Ihara, has to go to the front line in person.”

"Qingxue, you must remember that we are not facing humans with the same physical abilities, nor are we facing mindless beasts, but monsters with unique ways of thinking, giant beasts that can kill you if you are not careful."

Xia Muxiong looked at his daughter and said, "No matter what kind of power you possess, you will inevitably get hurt when facing such an enemy. But never be afraid. Only by bravely facing the enemy can you seize the very slim chance of victory."

"Go ahead. I'll be waiting for your good news."

Qingxue felt her eyes welling up slightly. She bit her lip, suppressing her emotions with pain, and then said, "Please rest assured. I will not let you down."

"Ah."

Xia Muxiong responded, his gaze lingering for a moment before he said nothing.

They walked directly toward the vehicle that had been waiting for them.

However, the person standing respectfully waiting by the car was no longer Secretary Liuteng, but a new face.

Qingxue silently watched her father's figure.

Although his figure was still tall and upright from behind, one could see that his steps had become incredibly slow.

"Commander Xia Mu, please get in the car!"

The young man perfectly executed the movements he had rehearsed countless times in his mind.

Unfortunately, Xia Muxiong was preoccupied with his own thoughts and could only nod slightly.

However, this also made the young people look excited.

Sometimes, even a seemingly insignificant "approval" from a powerful figure can elicit overwhelming gratitude from the recipient.

“heng…”

The car started and gradually began to move.

As the vehicle slowly drove away, Qingxue's emotions gradually calmed down.

She glanced at the time, pondering how to handle the upcoming selection process.

Life with her father is still long, but joining UPIC is a task assigned by Mr. Huixia.

Moreover, since it was her first time accepting a mission, Qingxue still hoped to complete it well.

The reason is quite simple.

After his father recovered, his changes were very noticeable.
