A man performing motorcycle stunts rode over and told you that I wanted to save the world.
Sounds like nonsense, right?
But there's something even more absurd.
Imagine this: a stunt motorcyclist, riding a motorcycle while carrying a ten-year-old girl and a sixty-year-old man, rushes over and tells you—
We want to save the world together.
Blake was dumbfounded. "Dad, Xiaoyu, you have no idea how dangerous things are at the base right now. If Wonder Woman hadn't arrived in time, Jackie Chan and Tru—" He suddenly froze, eyes widening.
"What the hell is that?"
Before him, Johnny was transforming into Ghost Rider. His motorcycle twisted into a hellish form, his entire body ignited in blue flames. His hollow eye sockets, devoid of any eyeballs, locked onto Blake.
"A… skull?"
Blake was stunned. "A flaming skeleton… Wait! Are you the killer from yesterday? The one who took out 38 gang members?"
Such a major case had naturally been flagged as top priority in District 13. Orders from above had already circulated regarding it.
"Enough talking! Get out of the way and let us through!"
The old man slapped Blake out of his daze.
"Wonder Woman!"
Xiaoyu caught on to the most important detail and got excited, jumping up and down. "Johnny, hurry up! Get to the base! Wonder Woman is inside! I'm a huge fan!"
Blake hesitated for a moment before stepping aside. "Go ahead. But be careful."
With that warning, Johnny revved the throttle, and a deafening roar echoed through the street. The sudden blast of sound left Blake and the other District 13 officers momentarily deafened.
BOOM!
The elevator doors in front of them shattered as the motorcycle crashed straight through. The elevator descended, taking the three riders underground and out of sight.
Gulp.
One of the officers behind Blake finally snapped out of shock and gasped, "That guy… he was a skeleton! Was that magic?"
Blake exhaled, watching the trio disappear. "Forget about that for now. We need to report this to our superiors immediately." He straightened up, his expression serious.
"This isn't over. Not by a long shot."
After a fierce battle, the Heart Demon was growing increasingly frustrated with Wonder Woman. No matter what he tried, he couldn't land a decisive blow.
Even with his powerful spells, he couldn't truly harm her.
She was his equal—perhaps even stronger without relying on magic.
After exchanging blows, he reached a grim realization: without his spells, he wouldn't last three rounds against her.
What a formidable opponent…
His gaze shifted behind him. The Water Demon, Earth Demon, and Wind Demon were still locked in combat with Jackie Chan and Tru. His patience was wearing thin.
"Stop wasting time and grab the talisman!" he barked. "I've had enough of this!"
"Oh?"
Wonder Woman raised an eyebrow. "Getting desperate?"
BOOM!
She struck again. A divine shockwave rippled from her sword, forming an arc of pure energy that blasted the Heart Demon backward.
Whoosh!
The Heart Demon shifted his position, activating the power of the Rabbit Talisman to dart wildly around Wonder Woman at incredible speed.
However, the supernatural shockwaves emitted by her silver guardian bracelets prevented him from getting anywhere close.
At the same time, Wonder Woman couldn't track his movements in his accelerated state—she could only stay on guard, anticipating his attacks.
The battle reached a stalemate.
But if one were to analyze the situation, the Heart Demon clearly held the advantage.
After all, his three major demons were completely overwhelming Jackie Chan and Truu, pressing them to the ground and mercilessly beating them down.
If not for their sheer resilience, the talismans in their hands would have long been snatched away, further increasing the demon sorcerer's power.
Once the Heart Demon gathered all twelve talismans, even Wonder Woman wouldn't stand a chance.
"Trying to stall for time?"
A flicker of cold determination passed through Wonder Woman's eyes.
Even in this tense moment, she still didn't regard the Heart Demon as a real threat.
He thought he was facing all of their forces.
That was his biggest mistake.
Because their most crucial fighter—Ghost Rider—had yet to arrive.
Wonder Woman was well aware that when it came to a battle of endurance, the side trying to stall was rarely the one that lost.
Suddenly, Jackie Chan's alarmed voice rang out:
"Truu!"
Wonder Woman's focus wavered for a split second.
Turning her head, she saw Truu collapsing to the ground. A gruesome wound had opened across his chest, bone-deep and oozing blood. His face turned deathly pale as he slumped into a growing pool of crimson.
The talismans he had been holding scattered across the floor.
He had finally succumbed to the demons' relentless assault.
"Tch."
Wonder Woman frowned. "Troublesome."
She immediately abandoned her battle with the Heart Demon, launching herself forward with blinding speed.
In an instant, she positioned herself in front of Truu, blocking the Water Demon and Wind Demon from delivering the finishing blow.
But it was too late—the talismans had already been snatched up by the enemy.
"Jackie Chan!"
Wonder Woman called out, her tone firm.
"Come here! Use the Horse Talisman—it can still save him!"
"Got it!"
Now invisible, Jackie Chan had managed to slip free from the Earth Demon's grasp. He dashed to Wonder Woman's side and pressed the Horse Talisman to Truu's wound.
The Horse Talisman's power was miraculous—it could expel any foreign force, cure all ailments, and even restore broken objects to their original state.
Even if Truu was barely hanging on by a thread, the Horse Talisman could bring him back.
As its energy surged, Truu's wound closed rapidly, his breathing stabilizing.
But despite this small victory, Jackie Chan's heart remained heavy.
Because in the chaos, the enemy had gained four more talismans.

With these, the Heart Demon now wielded eight talismans in total—and his power soared past anything they had seen before.
Wonder Woman felt his energy surging, but she remained unfazed.
"Relax," she said coolly. "Our backup has arrived."
Jackie Chan blinked. "Backup? We have more help? Is it Batman?"
BOOM!
A deafening explosion rocked the underground base.
The sound was like a thunderclap in a storm, reverberating through the corridors and shaking the walls.
Within the roar, high-pitched screams could barely be made out.
"Too exciting!"
"Johnny! Slow down! Your dad is an old man!"
Jackie Chan's expression darkened instantly.
"Xiaoyu? Dad?!"
He turned to Wonder Woman in shock.
"Wait—THEY'RE our backup?!"
