To be honest, Gao Jianfei possesses the Super Ghost Device. He could simply hide in the ghost den, along with his family and close friends, and survive there without worrying about the battle outside. Alternatively, he could teleport to an ocean planet and its colonies. In short, Gao Jianfei doesn't necessarily need to participate in this battle. However, he is an Earthling! Now that Earth has suffered such a catastrophe, even if it costs him his last bit of strength, he will fight to the very end!
"I need to organize this properly." Gao Jianfei pondered carefully. On Earth today, besides the forces of various factions, what other forces could be mobilized?
The superhumans in the American base are a relatively reliable force; also, the ancient martial arts practitioners in the Holy Land can participate in special teams to directly fight against aliens; and the internal martial arts practitioners in China can also make a contribution to protecting the Earth.
At times like these, all Earthlings with power should unite.
Afterwards, Gao Jianfei also thought of the Vikings deep in the Arctic and those extraterrestrial friends.
"I will unite every force to deal with those aliens!" Gao Jianfei looked at the video, at the destroyed cities, the humans slaughtered like puppets, the Earth women who were raped and humiliated to death... His heart was filled with boundless rage.
Soon, Gao Jianfei entered the den of ghosts again.
"Dear user, welcome to your haunted home. May I ask how I can help you?" the AI program's voice said as ingratiatingly as ever.
Gao Jianfei said in a deep voice, "From now on, I need to break free from that relaxed, carefree state where nothing matters. I must make good use of the Ghost Instrument. With aliens invading Earth, I hope to rely on the Ghost Instrument to quickly become stronger and stronger, and wipe out those alien bastards!"
Gao Jianfei glanced around and saw that the modification work on the Super Ghost Instrument was 82% complete.
Meanwhile, even the peak level 5 ghost, possessing galaxy-level specialties, had completed 84% of the piecing together work.
"I hope the Super Ghost Instrument finishes its modifications soon, and that I can quickly learn Fu Hongxue's martial arts," Gao Jianfei muttered to himself. "Also, I need to keep upgrading! Advanced mission upgrades!"
At this moment, the AI program said, "Dear user, Earth has been attacked by aliens?"
"Yes. This is a complete disaster," Gao Jianfei said helplessly.
"So, esteemed user, as the owner of the Super Ghost Device software, I can report your current situation to the system, and the system will take you away from Earth. Every player of the Super Ghost Device is noble. However, you cannot take any Earthling off Earth. Even the special space you just acquired, which can hold 10 living people, cannot take Earthlings to other planets. However, we can guarantee your safety alone," the intelligent program said earnestly.
"No need. You don't need to say anything more about leaving Earth." Gao Jianfei was slightly displeased. "I will enter the Ghost Den after the modification of the Ghost Instrument is completed, or after Fu Hongxue's assembly is finished."
After escaping the den of demons, Gao Jianfei found the way he used to contact the leaders of Shaolin and Wudang sects and got in touch with the leaders of these ancient martial arts sects.
Gao Jianfei cut to the chase. "Alright, although you consider yourselves reclusive martial arts masters compared to ordinary people, I think you should already know about some of the things that have happened on Earth. Now, every Earthling is involved, and I hope you can gather your followers to fight against those aliens!"
Those who practice martial arts generally possess strong principles and values. Gao Jianfei stated that the leaders of Shaolin, Wudang, and even Kunlun sects have expressed their willingness to join forces against the aliens.
Thus, Gao Jianfei arranged for them all to gather in the capital.
…… …… ……
***, United Kingdom, Brazil.
In a very short time, the cities near the three dead cities were completely destroyed.
The streets and alleys were filled with mangled human organs; countless houses collapsed; some people who had taken refuge in their homes or other buildings were buried alive or crushed to death on the spot because the buildings were destroyed.
Above the blood-red city, a faint blood mist had almost formed, and the stench of blood was so strong it was pungent.
Yokohama.
One hundred Beast King aliens have turned Yokohama into ruins. At this moment, they stand near a collapsed building, gazing at the sky.
As dawn broke, fighter jets and bombers began to fly and gather in the sky.
Meanwhile, a large number of tanks and armored vehicles have begun to enter Yokohama.
"Oh, the Earthlings are getting their planes ready! Those flying mechanical puppets must be their more advanced weapons," a magician murmured.
"Respected mages, what should we do now?" the warriors asked.
“We’ve been fighting all night. I think we can rest for a bit and then go into these ruined buildings. It’s a huge city, and I believe the Earthlings won’t be able to defeat us so easily unless they’ve decided to completely destroy it,” a mage said. “Anyway, let’s find a place to hide and replenish our magic and strength!”
After saying that, the 100 Beast King aliens dispersed and entered the ruined buildings to hide.

Chapter 572 Street Fighting
***Yokohama.
In Yokohama, now reduced to ruins, a dozen or so aircraft began to appear in the sky. Those were the main fighter jets of the Japan Self-Defense Forces Air Force... F-15Js and F-2s.
On the ground, a large number of Type 90 tanks and troop carriers were deployed from all directions, surrounding Yokohama.
However, Yokohama is not a small city, and even if the plane maintained a low altitude, it would be impossible to observe any trace of extraterrestrials for the time being. Especially since the extraterrestrials have now deliberately hidden inside ruined buildings.
On the plane, the soldiers gritted their teeth, vowing to blow the aliens to smithereens!
However, they severely underestimated the aliens' alertness and agility. By the time they arrived, the massacre was over, Yokohama was destroyed, and the aliens had cunningly gone into hiding.
They hovered in the air.
In this situation, the Air Force immediately contacted ground troops, sending tanks and soldiers into the city to search for the aliens. After all, it was impossible for such a large city to have been completely wiped out by the alien mob; therefore, there should still be survivors in the city ruins. The Army was also tasked with rescuing the survivors.
Soon, hundreds of tanks and tens of thousands of soldiers, fully armed, entered the chaotic ruins of Yokohama! They were followed by a large number of ambulances and medical personnel.
Inside an abandoned supermarket, a Beast King Star mage and a dozen warriors hid. After entering the supermarket, they brutally murdered all the surviving civilians hiding there. Then, they found some food and began to taste it, loudly praising that Earth's food was far more delicious than Beast King Star's.
At this moment, a soldier who was responsible for monitoring the situation at the supermarket entrance returned to the supermarket. He bowed to the magician and said, "Respected magician, the Earthlings have begun their counterattack. There are more than a dozen flying golems in the sky, and on the ground, there are also reptilian iron golems, as well as a large number of soldiers."
"Yes, the urban warfare is about to begin." The mage munched on an apple. "At times like these, the warriors' advantages will come into play. We mages will be responsible for providing you with magical protection and logistical support. Remember, it's urban warfare, guerrilla warfare. Don't engage the Earthlings in a head-on confrontation."
“However, esteemed mage, we can ride our pets and leave this city directly, avoiding being surrounded by Earthlings. You know, the speed of our pets at full speed is absolutely unmatched by any mechanical creation from Earth!” a warrior suggested.
"Oh? My dear, valiant warrior, are you afraid? Are you afraid of the Earthlings' counterattack?" the magician said sarcastically.
"No! Respected Mage, I only want to go to other prosperous cities on Earth to plunder, slaughter, and destroy... I have no other intentions!" the warrior said tremblingly.
"No need! With our current manpower and strength, we absolutely cannot launch a large-scale conquest of Earth. We only need this city to engage in small-scale street battles with the Earthlings. We need to wait, wait for reinforcements to arrive! As time goes by, more and more of our people will descend upon Earth!" the mage said with a sinister smile. "If those esteemed high-ranking mages were to descend, their forbidden magic would surely cause the Earthlings unbearable suffering! Hahaha!"
Forbidden Spellcaster!
The warriors exchanged glances. One of them murmured, "Of course, if a sword saint-level warrior were to descend, it would be a terrifying catastrophe for Earthlings. I eagerly await the arrival of forbidden magicians and sword saints."
"Hmph! How could those high-level professionals possibly descend upon Earth from the very beginning? I think the elders mean that after we, the vanguard, have formed a certain number on Earth, the Sword Saints and Forbidden Spell Mages will descend one after another. You must understand that every Sword Saint and every Forbidden Spell Mages is an invaluable asset to our Beast King Star! We must not allow any loss to Earth!" After the mage finished speaking, he touched an ancient ring on the middle finger of his right hand. A white light flashed, and crystal bottles were already placed at his feet, each filled with liquids of various colors.
"Magic potions?" The warriors stared in disbelief at the crystal bottles. One warrior exclaimed, "Respected mage, I never imagined you carried so many magic potions with you..."
The mage grabbed several bottles of red potions, tilted his head back, and gulped them down. After finishing, he touched the ring on his right hand and laughed loudly. "I've brought all my personal possessions to Earth. I'm ready to live here. You all know, Beast King Star is too small compared to Earth! And its resources are dwindling every day. Earth, on the other hand, is so wonderful! It has delicious food, beautiful women, Earthlings we can capture for hard labor, and many resources and ores we can utilize. I even sense that Earth's magical elements and resources are several times richer than Beast King Star's! I love this planet! Hahaha!"
After saying this, the mage silently chanted an incantation, casting several magical shields on the warriors and casting one on himself. He shouted, "My magic power is fully replenished! The street fighting has begun! Warriors, have some fun with those Earthlings!"
Meanwhile, in Brazil and London, the situation was similar. UN forces, both air and ground, had surrounded a city ravaged by the aliens. However, the cunning aliens had hidden themselves, forcing Earth forces to send tanks and ground troops directly into the city to confront them.
…… …… ……
country z.
The capital city.
The next morning, television broadcast a speech by the Chinese leader, telling the people not to be overly nervous, as the military was on high alert. The air force, navy, army, and even missile units were ready for battle. Every soldier, police officer, firefighter, and even urban management officer in every military region, province, and city was on standby. Furthermore, tens of thousands of volunteers were deployed to Xinjiang to fight the aliens! Not only Chinese troops, but also troops from other Asian countries formed volunteers and went directly to Xinjiang! After all, only Xinjiang had discovered aliens, therefore, troops from various Asian countries had gathered on the front lines to fight the aliens to the death.
The situation in the capital was also extremely tense. The streets and alleys were filled with heavily armed soldiers, armored vehicles, and tanks. Fighter jets flew over the city.
Gao Jianfei glanced at the international news... ***, London, Brazil, more and more troops are surrounding the cities where aliens are wreaking havoc. Television stations are broadcasting live that ground troops have entered the cities, preparing for close combat with the aliens.
"Fortunately, our Earth's troops did not surrender." Gao Jianfei felt slightly relieved.
However, he did not rush to the front lines immediately. Instead, he set up a reception office in the capital.
It was a large hotel that Gao Jianfei had temporarily bought to specifically accommodate figures from ancient martial arts sects in China. In addition, Gao Jianfei had also placed an advertisement on television… Anyone in China with decent combat skills, such as those specializing in marksmanship, internal energy cultivation, or any other combat techniques, could report to this reception department in the capital.
Gao Jianfei recruited manpower by forming a mercenary army.
The reception area soon welcomed a group of people from ancient martial arts sects. The vanguard of the Shaolin sect, consisting of over a hundred lay disciples, had already arrived at the hotel and made contact with Gao Jianfei.
Seeing these Shaolin lay disciples, each one looking vigorous and powerful, Gao Jianfei felt a slight sense of relief... After all, strength in numbers, and unity is crucial in times like these. Relying on any one person alone cannot fundamentally solve the problem.
Next, all sorts of extraordinary people arrived at the hotel.
There are free-fighting masters, folk martial artists, retired special forces soldiers, and even assassins!
In just one day, the hotel was packed with over a thousand people! Gao Jianfei had a clear division of labor, assigning Tang Bao, Chen Yaohui, Yan Kui, and Fei Long and his wife to take care of and arrange things for these roughnecks.
Meanwhile, Gao Jianfei also closely followed the progress and details of the battle between Earth forces and aliens online and on television.
…… …… ……
Yokohama.
Hundreds of tanks and tens of thousands of soldiers entered the city. Medical personnel behind them began using life detectors to search for survivors in the abandoned buildings.
"Ah! There are people here!" a doctor in a white coat shouted. Then, a group of soldiers rushed over and started digging in the rubble. Soon, they found a small space of less than 5 square meters formed under the collapsed building, where more than a dozen people were huddled together, trembling all over.
People were safely rescued. Military and medical personnel slowly advanced through the city.
At this moment, in a corner of the city, behind some ruins, lay in ambush a dozen Beast King Star warriors and a mage. They were all protected by strong magical barriers.
A squad of several hundred soldiers had arrived in the area, carrying submachine guns, anti-tank missile launchers, and automatic rifles. A tank followed closely behind. They searched the area thoroughly, and when they found the bodies of women and children beneath the ruins of the buildings, they wept bitterly.
At this very moment...
"Smack!"
A bolt of lightning struck out of nowhere, hitting the very center of the warriors!
In an instant, more than a dozen soldiers were blasted into dust!
Immediately afterwards, another bolt of lightning struck, charring the tank to a crisp!
"It's aliens!" the remaining soldiers shouted in terror, and they began a frantic, neurotic, and almost aimless firing.
Bullets rained down on every area of the ruins, shrapnel flying everywhere.
"roar!"
A dozen or so Beast King Star warriors summoned their mounts and charged out, brandishing swords and other weapons!
Chapter 573 New Tactics and Hostages
Chapter 573 Tactics and Hostages
The Beast King aliens, hiding behind ordinary ruins in Yokohama, launched a sneak attack on the Earth army patrolling the area! Two bolts of lightning destroyed more than a dozen soldiers and a tank. Then, in the Earth soldiers' frenzied and blind firing, more than a dozen Beast King aliens, riding their black panther pets, charged out!
They swept across an area of several meters in the blink of an eye! They charged into the midst of hundreds of enemy soldiers! Wielding their weapons, they created streaks of dazzling sharpness, slicing the enemy soldiers to pieces! And some enemy soldiers, before dying, pulled the trigger, shooting the Beast King Star warriors! But… when the bullets struck the magical shield enveloping the Beast King Star warriors, they only caused ripples, dimming the light of the magical barrier slightly, but failing to penetrate it! The warriors simply couldn't understand why their seemingly indestructible bullets were ineffective against these damned aliens! Meanwhile, the alien warriors' sharp blades and swords could easily pierce the thick bulletproof vests covering the enemy soldiers' bodies! Tearing them to pieces!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Each attack from the Beast King Star warrior sliced and destroyed the lives of several soldiers!
This battle seemed to have become a fundamentally unbalanced game. One side was using serious cheat codes, while the other side arbitrarily accepted their fate of being slaughtered.
"boom!"
Suddenly, a soldier who had been standing in the back row near the burning tank, in a frenzied, near-self-destructive rage, fired a rocket from his shoulder-fired rocket launcher! His comrades were engaged in hand-to-hand combat with a dozen Beast King Star warriors, but this soldier had gone mad; he fired the rocket recklessly. The powerful explosion created a mushroom cloud in the crowd! The terrifying blast wave tore the bodies of over a hundred soldiers to shreds into the sky, while the magical shields protecting several Beast King Star warriors were instantly ripped apart!
The power of the rocket directly destroyed the magical shield that the mage had cast on the warrior!
"Huh?" The Beast King Star warriors immediately spurred their mounts to leap away, feeling somewhat incredulous... It seems that not all of Earthlings' weapons are trash.
