Whether in a hurry to attack the Twenty-Eight Mansions or to obtain the power bestowed by the gods as soon as possible, the priest acted faster than Yun Jian had imagined. After the night patrol ended the next night, Tang Aibai told the conference room about the information he had obtained from the Twenty-Eight Mansions.

"Four days later, the Cat God will summon believers at the hour of Shen and grant them the powerful power of God's servants," he said with a serious face. "The original discussion of the Twenty-Eight Mansions was to proceed step by step. First, verify the authenticity of the news about the Cat God's weakness, and then dispatch personnel and adjust the response strategy according to the situation. However, it is not yet known to what extent the Cat God can enhance the power of God's servants. We can't take such a big risk and let them act as they please."

In other words, they must attack the Cat God Cult within four days and prevent the ceremony that grants power to believers.

The risk of this matter is not only that the weaknesses of the gods have not been verified, or that the time for formulating a strategy is too short, but more importantly, the person in charge of the Twenty-Eight Mansions and the Beigong team have not returned yet, and there are still only a few members of the Nangong team to implement the plan.

"The evil dragon in the Pacific Ocean has been injured and is currently hiding in the seabed. Director Luo is working with several strong men from other countries to create a prisoner formation," Tang Aibai sighed. "If we withdraw now, not only will our years of hard work be wasted, but if the evil dragon takes the opportunity to escape, the coastlines of the surrounding countries will be hit by huge waves again."

As for the Beigong team, they actually came to Sufang City to help after the Cat God descended. However, there was a superpower sect stirring up trouble in the capital, causing quite a stir. They rushed to suppress it, and although they managed to control the situation temporarily, it would take at least a week to resolve it completely.

In other words, Team Nangong might have to face the Cat God Sect, a huge organization backed by gods, alone.

In other words, this operation is likely to be a life-or-death situation.

After Tang Aibai finished explaining the situation, he was silent for a moment and looked at the people sitting in the office.

The members of the Nangong team accepted it well.

...

...

"It's just a matter of life and death. If the Super Power Sect can afford it, why can't we?" The team member who had been investigating a case in Sichuan and Chongqing and had just returned a few days ago slammed the table and spoke first. "So what if we have fewer people? Anyway, we already know the weakness of the Cat God. If I have to say it, it's just four words: fuck him!"

Qiao Liang: "I'm more curious why the power-granting ceremony is held at Shenshi. Generally, such a large-scale ceremony should be held at noon, even if it's not midnight. Why is it three or five in the afternoon? Does the Cat God want to finish it early and go to bed early?"

Everyone laughed.

Yun Jian laughed along awkwardly.

...In other words, is there a possibility that 'Cat God' chose this time so as not to delay Team Nangong's night patrol?

After a laugh, the atmosphere became much more relaxed and everyone began to talk about the things that needed to be dealt with in the next few days and the division of labor among each member.

Most of the Nangong team members scattered across the country have returned to the headquarters. Currently, there are as many as twelve people who can be dispatched, which is much more than before.

"I will select about 30 people from the reserve team to cooperate with the operation," Tang Aibai arranged, "Qiao Liang, you will lead these people to ambush around the ceremony site and move out when the time comes."

"Penghua, you, Jia Yi, Ni Er, and I will be responsible for containing the Cat God and buying time and opportunities for the members of the East Palace who are sealing the Cat God."

He carefully informed everyone of their tasks one by one. His eyes met the expectant tabby cat in the meeting room. He paused, pretended not to see it, turned his head away, and skipped over him and talked about the next person.

When Tang Aibai finished speaking, Li Hua could no longer sit still and raised his hand vigorously: "And me! What is my mission?"

"You stay on standby at the headquarters to prevent any other accidents from happening when we are clearing out the super-power sect." Tang Aibai said.

Li Hua's eyes widened: "Isn't this just nothing to do?"

Stared at by his condemning eyes, Tang Aibai couldn't help feeling a little guilty and looked away. Although he knew that what he was doing was not a good thing, he still didn't give in.

No one knew how difficult the battle with the gods would be, but this war would certainly be extremely dangerous. Tang Aibai had already prepared for sacrifice, and he also knew that the members present might also go without return. Whether it was Tang Aibai himself or the other members of the Nangong team, they all knew their ideals and goals, and were willing to sacrifice themselves for the peace of the people and the world.

But Li Hua is different - he is still an underage child, an occasionally willful but lovable and warm little cat demon. Before entering the Twenty-Eight Mansions, his biggest worry was the hellhounds that broke into the human world. He should not take the risk of losing his life in this battle of internal strife among the human race.

Li Hua was unconvinced: "But I am a formal member of Team Nangong! Even reserve members can go to the battle!"

More importantly, the situation might not be exactly as he planned. As the only one among the vests who could really fight, he would feel a little uneasy if he didn't go.

Seeing Tang Aibai shaking his head again and again, the kitten transformed on the spot, pounced on Tang Aibai with a meow and refused to leave. Its claws rubbed against his clothes, and in a few strokes, several big holes were rubbed into his casual clothes.

They looked so funny that the members couldn't help laughing.

"How about this," Peng Hua suggested, "Let Li Hua transform into his original cat form and sneak into the ceremony openly. Not only will he be able to investigate the situation more clearly, but if there's any fraud, he can sneak out and inform us directly."

Li Hua's eyes lit up: "Meow meow!"

That’s a good idea!

Tang Aibai pondered for a moment, remembering the information that the undercover had reported before, that the Cat God loved cats very much. In this case, the believers would definitely not dare to attack cats, so he nodded and said, "Then let's do it."

Li Hua happily changed back to his original form: "Great!"

Screams rang out in the conference room.

"Lihua!!! Put on your clothes!!!"

…

The little kitten, who had suffered a tragic social death, hid in Tang Aibai's coat this time and dared not come out, leaving only the tip of its tail curled up.

Tang Aibai helplessly patted his bulging coat, looked at everyone who was trying hard to hold back their laughter, and considerately did not provoke the poor tabby cat anymore, and instead started talking about the information they had learned so far.

"Our undercover agents in the Cat God Cult will try to get as close to the Cat God as possible and add chocolate to His usual food," he said. "With the priests on guard, the chances of success are slim, so the East Palace is developing a gaseous chocolate bomb. When the time comes, we can just drop one near the Cat God. As long as He breathes, He will be able to absorb the air containing chocolate."

Everyone nodded in agreement. The tabby cat, who was eavesdropping from inside Tang Aibai's coat, also nodded, thinking about moving the undercover agent to be his attendant tomorrow.

After talking for about ten minutes, Tang Aibai unscrewed the thermos and drank a sip of water: "That's basically it. Let's take a night's rest first, and come to the training room tomorrow to debug the new equipment that the East and West Palaces have specially equipped for this operation."

"There are new devices? Then can I apply for a month's salary advance?" Peng Hua joked, "My daughter just wants to buy a Batman action figure. If I can't come back this time, I won't pay it back."

"You wish!" Qiao Liang curled his eyes, "I want us to go out and have something good together!"

"What do you mean you can't come back? You can definitely come back," Tang Aibai held the cat in one hand and slapped him hard with the other hand, "When this mission is over, I will buy your daughter a life-size Batman action figure! And I will treat all of us at Nangong to a big dinner!"

Everyone cheered immediately.

"Really? Then we can definitely make you bankrupt!"

The tabby cat also poked out half of its head: "Meow meow meow!" He is a big eater!

Before he could finish meowing, Tang Aibai ruthlessly pushed him back into his coat.

"Let's go on night patrol."

Yun Jian: “Meow meow meow!”
