In Lin'an City, patrol cars can be seen everywhere on the streets.
At key intersections or locations vital to people's livelihoods, such as power plants, water plants, hospitals, telecommunications companies, and large shopping malls, military units are stationed to maintain the city's stability.
Although the military and police are not the main force in dealing with the strange occurrences, they are indeed effective in suppressing the crowds who take the opportunity to smash, loot, and riot.
As chaos began to emerge, some people's evil intentions became uncontrollable.
Theft, robbery, murder, rape and other serious crimes have seen an explosive increase in recent days.
The number of casualties is approaching that of those caused by the bizarre incident.
Fortunately, the authorities' strong crackdown temporarily stabilized social order.
During the daytime, there are fewer strange occurrences. People mostly come out to buy supplies, inquire about news, or make arrangements for the funerals of their family members.
"Weird! What a huge weirdo!"
"Run! Something strange is coming!"
On a certain street, people suddenly discovered a huge black wolf running wildly along the street.
In an instant, pedestrians were so frightened that they screamed and ran away in panic.
Some people even rushed to the military squad stationed at the intersection and asked them for help.
"There's a monster over there, right there, hurry and shoot it!"
This was a middle-aged woman who was so frightened that she shrank behind the soldier.
But the soldier stood there steadily, without making any move.
"Auntie, don't panic. That's a monster controlled by a monster hunter. It's carrying out a mission and won't hurt anyone."
The military and police on the street had already received notification from the management bureau, so they were not panicked.
As they were talking, the giant wolf came galloping over, leaped over their heads, and disappeared into the distance.
The woman shrank back in fright, her eyes filled with panic and confusion.
Is this huge thing being controlled by someone?
Several soldiers, however, looked at the giant wolf and the human figure on its back with envy and longing.
They also wanted to become ghost hunters, and to control such enormous and bizarre creatures, so that they could better protect their homeland.
Xia Tianqiong had no idea what the passersby below were thinking. At this moment, she was sitting on the soft back of the giant wolf, holding an orange cat in her arms, and gripping the shiny black wolf fur tightly with her right hand.
No matter how fast the giant wolf ran, it couldn't shake him off.
The human-headed dog was naturally unhappy about being ridden for the first time.
It deliberately sped up and twisted its body, as if trying to throw Xia Tianqiong off.
Xia Tianqiong saw through it but didn't say anything, nor did she use her status as the master to forcibly suppress it, but let it do whatever it wanted.
Over time, it calmed down on its own.
When the human-headed dog transforms into a giant wolf, it stands three meters tall at the shoulder and can reach over four meters when it raises its head.
It's a behemoth, a head taller than a bus.
Such a large creature running on the road naturally frightened many passersby.
Xia Tianqiong expressed her deepest apologies, but said she would not stop because of this.
The key is that it's so cool and awesome!
He was tracking Guo Zhan. He could have chosen to take the bus, teleport, or use levitation, but he ultimately chose to ride a wolf.
I just wanted to experience the feeling of Pentium.
The human-headed dog possesses two tricks. One is the wolf howl sonic wave, which can release sonic waves from its throat. These waves are highly destructive and have an area-of-effect attack.
It is considered a very powerful offensive trick.
However, Xia Tianqiong decided that she would never use this kind of trickery herself unless absolutely necessary. Even if she did use it, she would release the human-headed dog and let it cast the spell.
Because performing this technique requires barking three times, like a dog barking, it's incredibly embarrassing and shameful.
Xia Tianqiong thought the name of this technique was inappropriate.
It shouldn't be called "Wolf Howl Sound Wave"; it should be changed to "Dog Bark Sound Wave" for a more accurate description.
As a result, the human-headed dog threatened to kill himself and refused to change no matter what.
The matter had to be dropped.
Its second trick is called Black Wolf Descends, which not only increases its size, but also enhances its strength, speed, agility, sense of smell, and hearing in all aspects, making it extremely fierce in close combat.
However, it also has drawbacks; it cannot unleash the Wolf Howl Sonic Wave when transforming.
In other words, without transformation he is a ranged mage, and with transformation he is a melee tank.
Xia Tianqiong was very satisfied with the headshot dog's strength; the team finally had a tank.
The streets were bustling with traffic and pedestrians, and a giant wolf ran among them, as nimble as a rabbit.
It didn't step on anyone, nor did it hit any vehicles or streetlights, perfectly avoiding all obstacles.
Running along it, aside from being frightening, had no other impact.
The management bureau couldn't stop Xia Tianqiong, nor did they intend to. They also notified the entire city's military and police to maintain order and not to panic.
While Xia Tianqiong was tracking Guo Zhan, the group of contracted ghosts in the mirror space were also busy.
The bluestone plaza at the entrance.
The Painter Ghost, bound hand and foot with the Heavenly Rope, stood in the middle, surrounded by a group of Contract Ghosts.
Huang Yu, the delivery ghost, the gambling ghost, the mirror ghost, the baby tree ghost, the hanging ghost, and six shop assistants, even the socially awkward bus chair ghost who doesn't like to see people, all came over.
Everyone wanted a reward from their master.
"Don't panic, we won't hit you, we just want to talk to you about what's on our mind."
“Our master is handsome, rich, and powerful. There will be no harm in forming a contract with him. Of course, our master only accepts contracts with human masters.”
“Look at us, how well we live! Not only do we live in such a beautiful place, but we also have plenty of ghost money to enjoy.”
"As long as I form a contract with my master, I will never lack ghost money in the future. My master is a mid-level VIP of the Ghost Realm Bank!"
The various ghosts chimed in, each vying to say something flattering, trying to persuade the painting ghost.
Hua Gui stared with his small eyes at the enthusiastic faces, his mind full of questions.
Is this still weird? Why does it look like a human?
It had fought with Xia Tianqiong and knew that the other party had contracted with many strange creatures, but it never expected that they would all be like this, utterly disgracing all strange creatures in the world.
