"What? More than a dozen families have disappeared overnight in Tiandu?" Old Xia asked with a look of surprise and doubt.
"Yes, we went to the scene to investigate, and it doesn't seem like an ordinary mysterious disappearance case!"
"You mean it was someone else who committed the crime?" Old Xia asked, frowning.
"We can't rule out the possibility that these are sentient beings. In any case, it wasn't an ordinary person who committed this crime, judging from the photos of the crime scene!"
Old Xia frowned as he looked at the photos of the crime scene. He felt that the level of destruction was beyond what an ordinary person could accomplish. It seemed that this matter would have to be handled by Bai Xiaochun's special operations team.
"This matter is entrusted to you. You must solve the case as soon as possible and catch the criminals. This case has already caused public panic, so you must close it as quickly as possible!" Old Xia hung up the phone, his face grave. There are more and more extraordinary people these days, with very eccentric personalities and acting arbitrarily. Cases like this might increase in the future. Without extraordinary individuals like Shan Lang and Ru Huan to oversee things, it's uncertain how long Longxia Kingdom can hold on!
On the other end,
Bai Xiaochun hung up the phone, feeling a surge of irritation. She didn't know why, but she had a vague feeling that this case was somehow related to her.
Bai Xiaochun led his special operations team to the crime scene, a detached villa on a hillside, where the walls were covered with shocking scratch marks!
A pillar that an adult couldn't hug was bitten through by something! The entire villa was a mess, with blood splattered everywhere and scattered pieces of clothing in the rooms...
"This must have been done by a beast that has become a spirit. Go and search everywhere!" After inspecting the scene, Bai Xiaochun began to instruct his subordinates to search for any suspicious people or animals.
He wandered around the villa, as if searching for some clue...
According to reports from members of their special operations team, after killing the person, the creature left through the road next to the villa and disappeared into the surrounding dense forest.
Bai Xiaochun led his men into the dense forest to search, but the forest was very wide, and the perpetrator might have already escaped from Tiandu and fled to other places!
Bai Xiaochun was completely clueless and could only wait for this creature to commit another crime before he could find out where it was and make an arrest.
Bai Xiaochun instructed members of the special operations team to retrieve surveillance footage from around the villa and to deploy drones to conduct 24-hour surveillance along the edge of the surrounding dense forest.
"Team leader, we found this in the surveillance footage, can you take a look?" A member came to Bai Xiaochun's office with a notebook.
The laptop was displaying a surveillance video, and the member pressed the play button.
A video appeared in the surveillance footage showing a huge ant barging into the villa. Then, terrified screams and cries for help were heard from inside the villa…
About half an hour later, the ant finally came out of the villa, crossed the road, and entered the dense forest...
"Team leader? Team leader!" The member called Bai Xiaochun twice, but Bai Xiaochun was still staring intently at the ants on the screen, his face extremely pale, as if he had been greatly frightened.
"Team leader, are you alright?" The member gently shook Bai Xiaochun and asked softly.
"Oh! It's nothing! Hmm, this thing is very dangerous. We need to find it as soon as possible so that more people can't be harmed. Cough cough, go and notify all the members to keep a close eye on the movements in this dense forest at all times. I'll think of a way to catch this monster!" After Bai Xiaochun came to his senses, he sent the member away and plopped down in a chair, staring blankly at the giant ant inside...
"Let me tell you, you didn't see what our team leader looked like. He was staring at the screen, completely terrified. I called him twice, but he didn't hear me. That's exactly what he looked like," a member of the special operations team vividly imitated his team leader's expression to his comrade.
"This thing looks a bit tricky!" Everyone felt a chill run down their spines when they saw the giant ant on the monitor. Now that Shan Lang was dead, only they, the half-baked ones, were left. Even their team leader looked terrified. It seemed that this mission was going to be very difficult.
"Do you have any good suggestions?" The leader of Longxia Kingdom sat in the conference room, looking at the images on the projection screen, and asked Bai Xiaochun.
"I... as you all know, when Shan Lang was around, we could barely manage to subdue these kinds of things, but now that Shan Lang has died in the line of duty, the special operations team, including myself, is just a bunch of half-baked individuals. I'm afraid the casualties will be very high!" Bai Xiaochun answered truthfully.
"Why don't we ask the people from Langcheng for help?" suggested one of the leaders.
"No way!" Old Xia and Bai Xiaochun both objected in unison.
Everyone looked at Bai Xiaochun and Elder Xia with great surprise, wondering why neither of them was willing to ask Ru Huan and the others to help kill this giant ant.
"You go first!" Old Xia looked at Bai Xiaochun with great surprise, and then asked Bai Xiaochun to explain why he couldn't invite Ru Huan and the others.
"Ahem, well... well, I admit that everyone in Langcheng is highly skilled and capable. Compared to them, we are worlds apart. But if we go to them for help whenever we encounter difficulties, we will end up owing them more and more. If they then ask us for payment, making exorbitant demands or other unreasonable requests, how should we deal with that?" Bai Xiaochun coughed twice before speaking.
“Yes, after all, Ru Huan isn’t on our side, and besides, she’s not under our jurisdiction now. We haven’t figured out where this thing came from. If it’s a beast that has become a spirit on its own, that’s fine, but if someone deliberately released it, what do you think…” Old Xia stopped there and didn’t continue.
"You mean, some people are starting to use these things to coerce our Dragon Xia Kingdom?"
"I'm just guessing right now. The most important thing is to find a way to catch this giant ant."
"If all else fails, just use small missiles!"
"I feel this is not advisable. It's best to avoid using missiles if possible. Look at the US military, they use missiles to deal with these aliens, but some aliens aren't afraid at all! So we need to think about this carefully!"
Just as everyone was still discussing, Bai Xiaochun's phone suddenly rang!
"What? You've already discovered this giant ant!" Bai Xiaochun jumped up and asked.
"Okay, I understand!" After hanging up the phone, Bai Xiaochun became very worried.
"What's wrong? Is something the matter?" Old Xia asked, looking at Bai Xiaochun's expression.
"Our drone spotted this ant in the dense forest, and we already know its exact location!" Bai Xiaochun said.
"Now gather your people and begin the operation!" one of the leaders said, looking at Bai Xiaochun.
"Yes!" Bai Xiaochun gritted her teeth, preparing to get up and leave!
"Wait a minute!" Old Xia stopped Bai Xiaochun.
"Send the location to Lao Xu and let his people go first. Only go if it's absolutely necessary. Don't cause unnecessary casualties!" Old Xia's face was solemn.
"Alright, leave it to me," the old man dressed in a general's uniform readily agreed, and then began to deploy his troops.
"I started telling my people to evacuate the crowd there so as not to harm the civilians!" Bai Xiaochun also began to take action.
“We have cleared out all the people and residents in the surrounding area. General Xu, you may begin now!” Bai Xiaochun said.
"Alright! Heed my command, prepare to attack!" With General Xu's order, his troops began their operation!
In the dense forest,
An ant, as big as a wolf cub, scurried about in the dense forest, as if it sensed some danger was about to befall it and was preparing to rush out of the forest!
"Buzz buzz buzz..." A formation of drones appeared in the sky, and the mechanical wolves and mechanical leopards on the ground, together with the drones above, entered the dense forest!
Bai Xiaochun and a group of leaders from the Dragon Xia Kingdom sat in the conference room, watching the live broadcast very clearly through the cameras on these robotic wolves and drones!
Countless robots quickly approached the giant ant, then surrounded the behemoth, preparing to take action!
"Reporting to the commander, we have located the target and have taken aim at it. Please give instructions!" General Xu's phone was on speakerphone, and everyone in the conference room could hear it clearly.
"Action!" General Xu gave the order, and all the mechanical wolves and leopards on the screen aimed at the extremely frenzied giant ant.
"Fire!" the commander ordered.
All the mechanical wolves and mechanical leopards surrounding the giant ant turned their weapons on it!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."! Countless! A dense swarm of missiles shot towards this giant ant!
With a series of deafening booms, countless missiles struck the giant ant, creating a series of thunderous explosions!
"Target hit! Prepare for second wave of attack!"
Countless reports echoed throughout the conference room! Drones continued to circle overhead, monitoring the situation below in real time!
The smoke of battle has cleared!
The giant ant was still completely unharmed, scurrying around in the dense forest! Those missiles hadn't hurt it at all!
The giant ant charged furiously toward the mechanical leopards and wolves on the ground, violently destroying countless mechanical wolves and leopards!
"Drone Operation!" The commander's powerful voice rang out!
A dense formation of drones swooped down into the dense forest! Navigating the intricate woods, they unleashed a barrage of attacks on the giant ants!
"The mechanical wolf has lost 20% of its strength! The mechanical leopard has lost 30% of its strength!"
"This giant ant is preparing to escape the dense forest! All units, be alert! Under no circumstances should it be allowed to escape this forest and enter the residential area!" The commander issued a death order!
"Rest assured, sir! We are determined to complete the mission!" A series of powerful and resounding voices rang out.
"Stop it!"
Countless drones converged on the giant ant and began to bombard it relentlessly!
"Mom, save me!" Just as the attack on the giant ant was in full swing, a voice suddenly rang in Bai Xiaochun's mind.
Bai Xiaochun was startled! The thing she feared most had happened!
The giant ant charged left and right, running wildly, ignoring the drones bombarding it from the sky, and started running in one direction!
Bai Xiaochun panicked immediately because he had an inexplicable connection with this giant ant. He knew that the giant ant was heading towards him, seeking his protection!
"Team Leader Bai, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" General Xu noticed Bai Xiaochun's unusual behavior and asked with great concern.
"No... nothing, my stomach is just a little bloated," Bai Xiaochun stammered.
“If your stomach is bloated, just go to the toilet! It’s okay, we’ll watch over you here, don’t worry!” General Xu said to Bai Xiaochun with a smile.
"Um... okay," Bai Xiaochun said, clutching her stomach in pain as she left the meeting room and ran to the restroom.
"Mom, please save me!" The giant ant's voice grew louder and louder in Bai Xiaochun's mind!
Bai Xiaochun's face was ruthless, and then he turned into a cloud of red and white mist and disappeared into the toilet...
"Mommy! Have you come to save me? I'm so scared, please take me away from here!" The giant ant sensed that Bai Xiaochun was beside it and said with great joy.
Bai Xiaochun resisted the urge to get close to the giant ant and crawled directly into its body. Just then, a missile came hurtling over...
"Reporting, sir, the target has been cleared!" The commander's tone was filled with the joy of victory.
"Immediately dispatch ground troops to collect all the remains of this ant!" Elder Xia and the other leaders in the conference room all breathed a sigh of relief!
"Team Leader Bai, we've won this time! It seems these supernatural beings and sentient creatures are no match for our firearms. Hey? What's wrong with you? You look like you've been crying." General Xu said excitedly to Bai Xiaochun, who had just come out of the toilet, but seeing that Bai Xiaochun's eyes were red and she looked like she had been crying, he asked with some doubt.
"Cough cough, no, I smoked a cigarette when I went to the bathroom just now, and I didn't expect the ash to blow into my eyes, so I rubbed them myself!" Bai Xiaochun said with a smile.
"Oh, once I was secretly smoking in the bathroom, and I accidentally blew some ash into my eyes. I rubbed them for ages before they were healed. Your sister-in-law asked me what was wrong, and I said I suddenly remembered my white moonlight, hehe..." General Xu patted Bai Xiaochun on the shoulder and said.
"Let's go! Let's all have a meal together and relax. Oh, by the way, everyone who participated in today's operation has to sign a confidentiality agreement, and they'll all receive a commendation," Old Xia said happily.
Bai Xiaochun had no choice but to bite the bullet and go celebrate the victory with these old men...
"Ugh..." Bai Xiaochun squatted in his own toilet and vomited violently. He had drunk quite a bit with these old men, and now his head was all foggy. Bai Xiaochun slumped weakly next to the toilet, closed his eyes, and fell asleep...
"Water! I want water!" Bai Xiaochun felt his throat was very dry, and it was very difficult to swallow. He could only hum and whine.
Just as he was about to prop himself up from the toilet, a full glass of water appeared in front of him! Bai Xiaochun took the glass and gulped it down his throat. A very warm liquid slid down his throat and into his stomach, feeling very comfortable!
"Ahem... thank you!" Bai Xiaochun said softly.
But then I suddenly remembered that I've always lived alone in my house! Who poured me that warm water just now?
Bai Xiaochun suddenly opened her eyes, looking at the person in front of her with a look of horror...
"Heh, I didn't expect that the army of Longxia Kingdom could kill a creature that had become a spirit?" the hyena said mockingly.
"Don't look down on firearms. As long as you bleed and are made of flesh and blood, these firearms can kill you!" Li Xia said earnestly.
"I feel that this matter is not as simple as the official announcement from Longxia Kingdom!" The hyena was still somewhat skeptical. Although he did not know what kind of creature the Longxia Kingdom's army had killed, it was simply impossible for it to be killed so easily!
"What? Are you feeling a little scared? These ordinary people can now threaten the lives of us superhumans. It's hard to accept, isn't it?" Li Xia smiled and said to the hyena.
"No, I still feel there's something fishy going on here!" the hyena said.
"Whatever his tricks are, it's none of our business! As long as he doesn't provoke us, that's fine. Longxia Kingdom is also trying to give these extraordinary people a warning, hoping that they will think twice before they try to take advantage of Longxia Kingdom!" Ru Huan said.
“Yes, we’re just staying within our own little territory in Langcheng. We won’t get involved in other things or meddle in other people’s business,” Li Xia agreed.
"I wonder how that demon god is doing now that he's gone to the Shangguan Group?" the hyena thought, somewhat bored.
"Nothing to do? Come on, come on, let's go interview new people together. There are a lot of people with supernatural abilities who want to join our Langcheng. Come with me to see what kind of people these people are and give me some advice!" Seeing the hyena's bored look, Li Xia dragged him directly to the Bureau of Supernatural Abilities.
"They're here! The Twin Devils of Langcheng are here!"
The Langcheng Bureau of Extraordinary People is now overcrowded with men and women, young and old, as well as demons and monsters that have not yet taken human form.
Upon seeing Hyena and Lixia riding a lynx slowly arrive at the Bureau of Extraordinary People, everyone respectfully bowed to the two and then made way for them...
Li Xia took out her key and opened the door of the Bureau. Although the Bureau of Extraordinary People had never been used before, even though Li Xia and her group had only returned more than ten years later, the place was still spotless and clean.
The administration office was empty, with nothing in it except a table next to the entrance, stacks of forms on it, and all sorts of weapons and magical artifacts around it. There were also six other tables labeled "Invigilator," but no one was sitting behind them.
Hyena and Lixia sat in the middle. Lixia looked at these strange people with a smile, while Hyena looked down on them and didn't even glance at them.
"Ahem, fellow Daoists, it's a pleasure to have you in Langcheng. We warmly welcome your desire to join us, but we need to conduct a small test before assigning you to positions based on your strength!" Li Xia cleared her throat and said.
"Why all the nonsense? Just have them fill out the forms and start the test!" the hyena said impatiently.
"Ahem, let's begin!" Li Xia said, watching what these supernatural beings would do.
On the table with the forms, the stack of forms began to fly rapidly towards the group of supernatural beings. Within a dozen breaths, all two hundred forms were obtained remotely by these supernatural beings.
"Alright, those who didn't get a form can leave now, but don't be discouraged. Come back on the 15th of next month's lunar calendar, and maybe you'll have another chance then," Li Xia said with a smile.
All the superhumans who hadn't received the forms had left, leaving only two hundred superhumans who had received the forms. They came before Li Xia and the hyena.
"Taking the form is just a preliminary test. You are very lucky to have passed the preliminary test. Next, we will start to get serious!" Li Xia said with a serious expression as she looked at these smug superhumans.
"Our test is relatively simple, consisting of three rounds. Of course, the preliminary test is not included. In the first round, you will each find your own opponents among your two hundred fellow Daoists, or you can form alliances. We will eliminate half of your two hundred fellow Daoists. Let's begin!" After Li Xia finished speaking, she looked at the surprised expressions on the faces of these extraordinary individuals, then quickly began to examine the people around her, looking for those weaker than herself, and then prepared to attack.
With a deafening roar, flames suddenly surged towards the surrounding supernatural beings, throwing the two hundred of them into chaos and unleashing a massive brawl...
Flames raged! Lightning crackled and exploded! All sorts of spells were unleashed at once, and countless supernatural beings screamed, groaned in pain, and collapsed...
Half an hour later, only sixty-odd superhumans remained standing on the field. Li Xia had these sixty-odd people help the people on the ground up, and she instantly healed their injuries. Then she very politely sent them away...
"Alright, now you can begin preparing for the second round of testing!" Li Xia completely healed the injuries of these sixty-odd superhumans, and some of them even improved their strength as a result! These superhumans were overjoyed, never expecting to have such an adventure and gain in Langcheng.
"Our second round of testing is to see your reaction speed and your own strength. See those six tables over there? They are the proctors, and they are also your touchstone. You need to adjust yourselves to your best state, because these six proctors hit people very hard!" Li Xia said with a smile.
"Now you can choose the items on these six tables. Choose whichever examiner you choose. That examiner will fight you. If you can withstand the examiner's attacks for half an hour, you will pass and can proceed to the next round of testing. Alright, go and choose yourselves!" After Li Xia finished speaking, the sixty-odd superhumans rushed to the six tables, ready to choose their examiner opponents.
"This..." The sixty-odd people looked at the things on the six tables with blank expressions. The tables were filled with all sorts of old objects, including pipes, canes, glasses, rulers, fire tongs, and even a set of dentures.
"Hehe, what? Don't you have any favorites? If you don't choose, it means you've automatically forfeited and you can leave now!" Li Xia said with a smile, seeing that these people were a little confused.
"I choose this pipe!" one of the strange men said, reaching for the pipe on the table.
Suddenly, the pipe floated up from the table, and then a matchbox appeared out of thin air. The matchbox opened automatically, and a match floated out.
With a hiss, a strong, pungent smell spread out. The lit match drifted into the pipe, the mouthpiece disappeared, and then smoke began to rise from the pipe. A bluish-white smoke billowed out, making it seem as if someone was smoking!
The pipe circled the strange man who had chosen it, seemingly sizing him up, then pointed to the center of the room and swayed towards it.
"Could this pipe have come to life?" the strange man wondered in astonishment, and then followed the pipe to the center.
The blue smoke rising from the pipe suddenly disappeared, and then a puff of bluish-white smoke appeared out of nowhere. The pipe began to approach the strange man.
"Bang!" Before the strange man could react, he was kicked hard, almost knocking him over!
The strange man was kicked and staggered, but luckily he managed to regain his balance. Then he looked at the pipe floating in the air.
Suddenly, the strange man felt a gust of wind blowing towards his lower abdomen. He quickly shifted to the side, dodging the pipe's sneak attack! He finally realized that his opponent was the pipe!
"Please give me your guidance, invigilator!" The strange man bowed to the pipe and began to attack it.
The crowd witnessed a truly magical scene: a person's palms burst forth with shards of white ice, which were then engaged in a fierce battle with a pipe suspended in mid-air!
Although this strange person couldn't see the creature opposite him and was beaten black and blue by the creature with the pipe, he still persisted. Every time he tried to touch the other, the other would use the pipe to burn him!
"Half an hour has passed, you've passed." Upon hearing Li Xia's voice, the superhuman lay stiffly on the ground, panting heavily, not wanting to move at all, as any movement would cause him suffocating pain all over his body...
Two transparent figures, like crystals, lifted the superhuman aside and began to treat him. The remaining superhumans looked at each other, unsure which item to choose.
“I’ll take it, I choose this one,” another strange person said, pointing to the dentures on the table.
The dentures suddenly floated up and then drifted to the center. This new superhuman was not as docile as the previous one. He chose a weapon that suited him, bowed to the dentures, and then took the weapon and began to launch a preemptive attack!
"Hmm, this one's alright, he knows how to be flexible," the hyena nodded, commenting on the strange person.
And so, after the second round of testing, only about twenty people remained, and the rest were eliminated.
All twenty-odd superhumans were beaten until their heads were swollen like pigs. A group of transparent people, like crystals, began to heal them. Once they had recovered to about 70-80%, Li Xia started the third round of testing.
"This test is also the last test. It mainly tests your potential and reaction speed," Li Xia said, then drew a circle in the air, creating a tunnel that looked like a black hole.
“This time you are going to another world, and you will stay there for ten years!” Li Xia said.
"Ten years? Is it really that long? Isn't that too long?" one of the strange people asked.
"Ten years in this world is actually ten minutes in our real world! You have to survive in there. If you accidentally die in there, it's considered elimination. Don't worry, if you're killed in there, you'll return to the real world; you won't truly die."
Also, from the moment you enter, you must start calculating your own time inside. If you forget it or it exceeds ten years, you will be eliminated! Alright, now come and get your things!" After Li Xia finished speaking, she called the twenty-odd superhumans to her.
"This is... a spirit herb!" A group of extraordinary people stared at the spirit herb on Li Xia's table with shining eyes. The spiritual energy emanating from the herb floated into their nostrils, making them feel invigorated and as if they were about to ascend to immortality.
"Each of you will have one spirit herb, and you will take this spirit herb with you into this world. When you come out, you must also bring out this spirit herb intact. Your task is to protect your spirit herb from being stolen, robbed, or damaged. If you are in a critical situation, you can consume it yourself. When you come out, whoever has consumed the most will be eliminated."
Oh, I forgot to tell you, don't be greedy, don't try to devour this entire spiritual herb. If you get greedy and burst from the herb, we won't be responsible. You'll die, and that's it in the real world. So don't gamble with your lives!" After giving these instructions, Li Xia gave each of the supernatural beings a spiritual herb, and then they filed in and entered another world...
"Xiao Bai, we called you here today for no other reason than that you've heard, haven't you? The Bureau of Extraordinary People in Langcheng has already started recruiting extraordinary people. Although we've been recruiting as well, the results have been minimal. As the leader of the Special Operations Group, shouldn't you think of a solution? If all these extraordinary people are recruited by Langcheng, our Longxia Kingdom will be in danger!" Elder Xia and several leaders of Longxia Kingdom said with deep concern.
“I’ve been trying to figure out a solution to this, but these superhumans feel that they are more powerful than us ordinary people. They are very resentful that we ordinary people should manage them. Unlike Langcheng, where superhumans manage other superhumans and strength is the most important thing, so it is easier to manage them. But please rest assured, I will try my best to find a solution.” Bai Xiaochun felt a lot of pressure.
"Yes, Xiao Bai, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Just do your best in everything. It's all up to you. We won't blame you," General Xu said.
That night,
Inside Bai Xiaochun's room.
“Waaah…” A series of very sad cries echoed in Bai Xiaochun’s toilet.
At this moment, Bai Xiaochun knelt in front of a corpse and wailed in great grief.
Bai Xiaochun herself couldn't remember how many of her own offspring she had killed. Every time she ate, she would give birth to a new offspring, and in order to prevent anyone from discovering it, she would kill all of these offspring alive!
Bai Xiaochun held the ant-headed, human-bodied creature in his arms, wailing loudly, and then began to eat the corpse bit by bit...
Ever since he ate that mushroom that looked like a termite mushroom, he had become an immortal being.
After being eaten by the queen of the giant ant, the function of the termite fungus was triggered, which merged the user with the queen, and the user became what they are now, with human consciousness and the queen's instinct to reproduce.
It's unbelievable that a man can give birth, but Bai Xiaochun is going crazy and doesn't know what to do. Although she's pretending very well, the truth will eventually come out.
Now these old men are making me compete with Langcheng to recruit superhumans. How can I possibly have the energy to recruit them? I can barely protect myself right now. I don't know what they will do to me if Elder Xia and the others discover my secret. I'm terrified.
"Recruit extraordinary people!" Bai Xiaochun's head seemed to have been struck by lightning. A brilliant idea flashed through his mind, and a very bold idea appeared in Bai Xiaochun's mind.
Bai Xiaochun gritted his teeth and thought, "I'm going all out!"
"Hey? Have you heard? Langcheng now recruits extraordinary people every month on the fifteenth of the lunar calendar. As long as they pass the test, they will receive a spiritual herb as a salary every month!"
"Is this real or fake? Holy crap, when did Langcheng become so extravagant?"
“A friend of mine went there, but he didn’t even pass the preliminary test.”
"It seems the test is still very difficult?"
"Whether it's difficult or not is another matter, but if you really pass the test, a single spirit herb... just ask me, my goodness, how many RMB would it fetch if you sold it!"
"Sell? Only a fool like you would sell it. Other extraordinary people can use spiritual herbs to improve their strength and go further on the path of cultivation!"
"Then I'll go to Langcheng and try my luck. If they take a liking to me, I'll be set for life!"
In no time, the news that Langcheng was recruiting extraordinary people and would give them spiritual herbs after they passed the test spread like wildfire. Countless extraordinary people flocked to Langcheng, and there were more than a dozen long queues at the entrance of the Langcheng Administration Bureau every day...
"Hehe, it seems our Xiao Bai still has a way. The speed is about the same as Langcheng's," Old Xia said with great satisfaction as he looked at the form presented by Bai Xiaochun.
Bai Xiaochun stood silently to the side, then watched as Old Xia signed and stamped the form before leaving Old Xia's office with the form in hand.
"Ru Huan told me to be careful of Bai Xiaochun. Is she trying to sow discord between us? Or does she have another purpose? Or has Bai Xiaochun changed since she came back this time?" After Bai Xiaochun walked away, Old Xia frowned and looked solemn. He had secretly sent people to investigate and follow Bai Xiaochun, but he had not found anything unusual. He couldn't understand why Ru Huan was reminding him to be wary of Bai Xiaochun.
"Alright, now this is your identity. You are now members of the Dragon Xia Kingdom Special Operations Group. You must learn human language! You must learn basic human living habits, or I will eat you, do you hear me?" Bai Xiaochun said with a cold expression as he looked at the twenty-odd creatures of various kinds in front of him.
“Yes, Mom, we understand,” some of the twenty-odd creatures replied with very stiff pronunciation.
"There's one more thing, and it's the most important thing: you all have to call me team leader! You can't call me mom, you have to remember that! If anyone lets it slip, I'll make them wish they were dead! Do you understand?" Bai Xiaochun emphasized again and again.
All the creatures nodded, and then began patrolling with Bai Xiaochun to capture the strange beings and creatures that were causing trouble...
Dragon Xia Kingdom's top-secret base
In an underground battlefield command center in Tiandu, all the leaders of the Longxia Kingdom were gathered.
"I've called you all here today because there's something I want to discuss with you," Old Xia said, looking at everyone.
"Old man Xia, what's all this about, making it so mysterious and insisting on saying it here? Why isn't Bai Xiaochun here?" General Xu asked, somewhat surprised.
"What I'm going to talk about today is about Bai Xiaochun," Old Xia lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and then exhaled the smoke heavily, as if he were about to vent all the secrets he had kept hidden in his heart.
"What's wrong with Bai Xiaochun? I think he's perfectly fine!" General Xu looked at Old Xia with some confusion.
"As everyone knows, we don't have the abundant resources of Langcheng, nor can we attract as many superhumans to contribute to the Longxia Kingdom. We've always been in a state of limbo. But ever since we talked to Xiaobai, the number of superhumans around him has been increasing day by day. Don't you find that strange?" Old Xia voiced his doubts.
"Old Xia, I really don't know what to say to you. When Bai Xiaochun couldn't recruit any extraordinary people at first, you were very worried that Langcheng would become too powerful. Now that Bai Xiaochun has recruited extraordinary people, you suspect that he has ulterior motives. What exactly are you trying to do?" General Xu said angrily, slamming his hand on the table.
“I also feel that Xiao Bai is acting strangely. In just half a month, he has recruited two or three hundred superhumans. Moreover, these superhumans have not been tested or approved by us. He brought these superhumans to the special operations team. If there are spies from other countries among these superhumans, we will have nowhere to cry.” Another leader agreed with Xia Lao’s idea.
"You people are the kind of people who want to have your cake and eat it too. When they couldn't find anyone, you complained that they weren't capable. Now that they've found humans, you're afraid of this and that. I don't know what you want from them to be satisfied!" General Xu said loudly to the leader.
