"The layout of the castle has been transmitted to Zero, who will guide you based on your real-time location. As for the situation inside the castle, you can take a look at these."

Deng Changtai swiped a few times on his communicator and brought up a holographic image.

Shown in front of the three people.

From the angle, it looks like a surveillance camera in the corner of the room.

The picture is a bedroom.

"This is the footage our technicians sent back after they cracked the surveillance camera in the castle."

The bedroom in the picture is very luxurious, with a classical European style. In this world, only the rich or noble can have a home decorated like this.

On a large and gorgeous bed, a man was lying there in a sprawling manner.

His eyes were wide open, his gaze was empty, and his sight was directed at the location of the surveillance camera.

Looking down, there was a big black hole in his chest near his heart. His heart was gone, as if it had been pierced through by a sharp claw and cut out alive.

The white shirt was stained with large patches of blood. Too much time had passed and the blood had oxidized and turned black.

Blood oozed out from his body, flowing on the sheets and the ground like a river of blood.

"He is Mira Wells' husband. He was the first to call the police and said that his wife had mutated. Unfortunately, he was already dead when our people arrived."

Deng Changtai called up several other images. "This is Mira Wells's eldest son. His heart was also dug out."

The man in the picture is lying on the ground with a submachine gun next to him and bullet shells scattered on the ground. He once tried to kill his mutant mother, but failed.

Min Tao asked with difficulty: "After the mutation, Mira Wells likes to eat human hearts?"

"Yes," Deng Changtai nodded, "The extreme protest organization's research and development of the magic medicine is not perfect. Humans who drink the magic medicine are closer to beasts and will develop some quirks. Mira Wells's quirk is that she regards human hearts as delicacies."

Deng Changtai did not explain further on this quirk.

Because we are about to arrive at Jinghu.

He quickly explained the tasks of Tu Ran and others.

"Mira Wells' family of four, two of them are dead, and there is still a young son alive."

The scene switched to an endless green lawn with an old and sturdy tree standing in the middle.

A young boy was hung upside down on a tree, with his eyes closed and his white clothes blown by the wind. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.

"He is Mira Wells' youngest son, Das. He is 19 years old and a sophomore. After learning that his mother had bought a bottle of magic medicine from an extreme protester, he rushed back from school overnight to stop her, but was hung on a tree branch by the mad Mira Wells."

"They didn't kill him. Did Mira Wells recognize that this was her little son?"

Deng Changtai shook his head. "Mira Wells seems to be using him as a food reserve. There are other servants in the castle who are also hung high up like Das."

"Our guards sent two teams to sneak into the castle to rescue the survivors. The first team evacuated safely and rescued 13 servants in the castle. The second team was unlucky and was discovered by Mira Wells. All 12 guards in the team died." Deng Changtai looked sad. "Because of the Federation's requirements, we can't use weapons with too much lethality. Ordinary bullets can't penetrate it. The few laser guns in the Federation were borrowed from other places, and we didn't dare to send any more teams in. Mira Wells found the remaining survivors in the castle one by one. Some of them dug out their hearts and ate them, and some were hung up as food."

"When you go in later, you will just be responsible for capturing Mira Wells. The survivors will be rescued by our people."

"Okay." The three nodded.

The patrol car landed and Tu Ran and his group got out of the car.

A guard from the executive department came up and whispered a few words in Deng Changtai's ear.

Tu Ran looked at the surrounding scenery.

No wonder it is called Jing Lake. From where they were standing, the first thing they saw was a blue lake reflecting the sky.

The clear and transparent lake water made Tu Ran feel as if she had returned to her hometown, a world that had never been polluted.

Mira Wells's castle is located in the middle of the lake. In front of the castle is a green lawn. A tree stands there abruptly, which can be noticed at a glance.

Tu Ran looked into the distance and saw a person hanging under a tree branch. Because the distance was quite far, the person looked as small as a cucumber hanging from the branch.

The guards of the executive department surrounded Jing Lake and did not even go to the lawn in the center of the lake.

Deng Changtai walked up from behind her with a strange look on his face.

"I just received an order from my superiors that you must not destroy this building while capturing Mira Wells."

Min Tao was the first to protest, "We can understand that you asked us not to kill Mira Wells, but now you ask us not to destroy the buildings in the castle! Do we have to be careful not to break a vase when the three of us are dealing with a genetically modified human?"

Deng Changtai's face, which was reflecting the Mediterranean Sea, was covered with sweat. He took out a handkerchief and wiped it off. He said with difficulty, "This... This is an order from above. I have no choice."

It's not easy for him. He can't offend both sides.

"Why? You have to give us a reason for doing this." Tu Ran looked at Deng Changtai and said.

"Because this castle is the old house of the Wells family. The first head of the Wells family lived here, but now it is temporarily occupied by Mira Wells and her family. The current head of the Wells family does not want this old house to be destroyed because of Mira Wells." Deng Changtai explained.

So it was the head of the Wells family who made this request.

Tu Ran closed her eyes. She wanted to bring that old guy called Stefano Wells over to see what her aunt was like now! Considering the fighting power of Mira Wells who could fight against 12 guards alone, how could he not destroy the buildings inside the castle? She suspected that he was deliberately making things difficult for her.

"Let's try our best." Tu Ran walked towards a long bridge leading to the ancient castle in the middle of the lake.

There were many guards gathered around the long bridge discussing countermeasures. When they saw Tu Ran and the other two, they immediately stopped talking and looked at them.

"We will be responsible for detaining Mira Wells, and you will be responsible for rescuing people. After rescuing everyone, you will evacuate quickly and we will handle the rest." Tu Ran made quick arrangements.

A guard who looked like he held some official position came forward, glanced at Tu Ran, and then looked at Min Tao and the other two behind her, "Are you three ok?"
