Just as the Night des members were about to kill Benjamin, one of them suddenly let out a horrific scream.


    All the Night des members turned their gaze towards the screamingrade.


    Benjamin, like the Night des, looked towards the person who screamed. In front of everyone''s eyes, the head of the screaming person fell from his body and rolled onto the ground.


    Everyone was stunned by this scene.


    Benjamin was the first to snap out of it. He scanned the surroundings, trying to spot whoever was hiding in the shadows.


    "Who did this?!" the Night des squad leader eximed in panic, brandishing his weapon around the area.


    A familiar figure slowly emerged from the shadows It was naturally Irving.


    Irving looked coldly at the few Night des members in front of him: "Where is Donald now?"


    Faced with Irving''s question, the Night des members naturally were not going to give any answers.


    After ncing at each other, several Night des members decided to initiate an attack on Irving, with the squad leader being the first to strike.


    Irving watched the actions of these Night des members with a cold smirk.


    "If you wish to die, then I shall oblige."


    Irving didn''t even use any special skills He simply harnessed the power of the Taikoo me Pearl. The attacking Night des members were instantly killed.


    Thest surviving Night des member even hid behind Benjamin.


    Irving walked a few steps forward and stood in front of Benjamin.


    "Do you know where Donald is now?"


    Benjamin shook his head: "I only know that Chairman Donald has been taken away by Elder Seville. I have no idea where Elder Seville might take him."


    Upon hearing Benjamin''s answer, Irving turned his gaze towards thest living Night des member.


    The expression on the face of the Night des member was one of extreme panic.


    He quickly shook his head: "I don''t know where Donald is either. I''m just a regr member of the Night des. I truly don''t know Elder Seville''s whereabouts. Please, just let me go."


    Faced with the pleading of the other party, Irving made no expression.


    He simply removed all restraints from Benjamin, allowing him to move freely.


    "He''s yours to deal with. You also need to vent some anger," Irving said to Benjamin.


    Benjamin nodded, turned back, and swiftly broke the neck of thest Night des member.


    "I''ll join you in rescuing Chairman Donald." Benjamin suggested to Irving after handling thest Night des member.


    Irving shook his head, "You don''t need to join me, and I''m not going to rescue Donald immediately."


    This response puzzled Benjamin.


    "Why not? Isn''t rescuing the chairman the most urgent thing for you to do?" In Benjamin''s view, since Irving was Vicky''s boyfriend, he naturally had a duty to rescue Vicky''s grandfather.


    Moreover, after sessfully rescuing Donald, Irving would practically be a co-leader of the Ocean Group. Wasn''t that benefit enough to motivate Irving?


    Irving slowly exined.


    "The reason I''m not going directly to rescue Donald is partly because I don''t know where Donald is. Elder Seville is very cunning. If he decides to hide, it will be nearly impossible for us to find him easily.


    Another reason is that there are others in the city of warding who need my help. The other official organizations in the city are under severe attack by the Night des.


    If I don''t help save these organizations, they will bepletely destroyed by the Night des. Then, our city of warding will fall into great chaos.


    In such a chaotic situation, even if I wanted to ensure the safety of the Ocean Group, it would be impossible."


    Irving''s exnation was impable, and Benjamin ultimately had to agree.


    "What do you need me to do? Should I follow you?" At this point, Benjamin regarded Irving as a superior.


    Irving shook his head again.


    "What you need to do is to quickly return to the headquarters of the Ocean Group. Vicky is there recovering from her injuries.You must ensure her safety."


    Benjamin did not refuse Irving''s orders.


    "I understand, I''ll head back to the headquarters of the Ocean Group immediately to ensure President Tang''s safety."


    After this exchange, Irving and Benjamin parted ways.


    Benjamin returned to the headquarters of the Ocean Group as quickly as he could, while Irving headed towards the city center of the city of warding.


    Irving''s primary task was to assist allies under attack by the Night des, with the Angel Guild being his top priority due to its importance.


    Upon arriving at the headquarters of the Angel Guild. Irving was shocked to find itpletely destroyed. The ruins bore no signs of life.


    Not even the assants from the Night des remained.


    Amidst the debris, Irving found a familiar member of the Angel Guild, covered in numerous wounds.


    It was clear that the member had fought fiercely against the Night des before sumbing.


    Irving approached the fallen member and silently prayed for them.


    After a moment of reverence, he stood and surveyed the wreckage of the Angel Guild headquarters once more. The area was heavily tainted with dark magic, indicating that the Night des had used powerful dark spells in their assault.


    Knowing he couldn''t cleanse the corruption himself, Irving sighed and reluctantly departed from the scene.


    His next destination was the headquarters of the Green Ivy Group.


    He had previously received a distress call from James, the founder of the Green Ivy Group, which was among the strongest family guilds in the city of warding.


    Yet, they were still struggling against the Night des.


    Shortly after Irving left the ruins of the Angel Guild, a dark figure slowly appeared on the debris.


    "It seems relying on that fool Seville alone isn''t enough to eliminate Irving. We need to think of other methods!"


    The shadow murmured words that Irving could not hear.


    As he was already nearing the headquarters of the Green Ivy Group.


    As he arrived, Irving saw that the Green Ivy Group''s building was nearly unrecognizable, looking as if it had been bombed multiple times.


    Several members of the Night des were attempting to breach the headquarters. Irving quickly dispatched these unfortunate assants.


    Stepping into the building, Irving was immediately greeted by a bullet flying towards him.


    He effortlessly dodged and turned towards the source, only to see James''s face.


    James''s expression wasplex as he recognized Irving entering his building, a mix of relief and tension.


    On one hand, James was relieved.With Irving''s arrival, he felt significantly safer, trusting in Irving''s capability to counter the threat of the Night des.


    On the other hand, he was slightly terrified at the thought of what might have happened if his bullet had actually hit Irving. He knew well that he couldn''t withstand Irving''s wrath if it had.


    James hurriedly approached Irving, "How are you? Are you hurt? Those Night des outside, they didn''t pose any threat to you, did they?"


    Irving shook his head.


    "Those Night des members were too weak. It hardly took any effort to eliminate them all. How are things here? How many members of your guild are left?"


    James''s expression turned somber.


    "To be honest, the main force of my guild has been almost entirely wiped out in the previous battles. The Night des are just too strong, and they caught uspletely off guard.


    In the first wave of their attack, they managed to eliminate the stronger members of the Green Ivy Group.


    If I hadn''t been stubborn about holding onto the headquarters, it would have fallen into the hands of the Night des much earlier. If you hadn''t arrived when you did, I doubt I could have held out much longer."


    Irving felt a twinge of disappointment upon hearing this.


    He had hoped to gather some reinforcements from James, but the situation here was just as dire as elsewhere.


    "You shouldn''t continue to defend this ce. The Night des are still strong and will definitely continue their attacks on you."


    Irving hoped that James would relocate to a safer location, specifically suggesting the Ocean Group headquarters.

    Where James could join forces with Benjamin and Vicky, creating a stronger collective defense.


    James appreciated Irving''s concern, but he was reluctant to abandon his family''s corporation and the guild he had founded.


    "I appreciate your concern, but as the heir to the Green Ivy Group and the head of the White family, I must uphold my responsibilities."


    Irving was slightly moved by James''s determination.


    "Since you''ve decided to stay, I''ll provide you with some handy weapons." Irving handed over several weapons he had seized from the Night des members to James.


    "If you change your mind, you can head to the Ocean Group headquarters at any time. Their defenses are quite robust. At least for the short term, you won''t have to worry about the threat from the Night des."


    After sharing these thoughts, Irving quickly departed.


    His mission was to provide support wherever needed among his allies. Since James''s situation was not as dire as he had feared, there was no need for him to linger and waste precious time there.


    After Irving left, James looked at the weapons handed to him and murmured to himself, "Irving can still offer help to others even in such dire situations. It seems I not only underestimated his strength, but I also underestimated his capacity to aid others during crisis."
