Sun Chengyu spoke first, introducing himself to the two of them.
Upon hearing that it was someone from the Thunder Bureau, Yun Ming's expression instantly turned serious.
He carefully observed the other party and saw that Sun Chengyu was wearing an alloy breastplate engraved with the flag of Zhongzhou.
The lightning patterns flashing on the Central Plains flag represent the unique and special identity of the Central Plains Thunder Bureau.
Yunming instantly confirmed Sun Chengyu's identity; he was definitely a member of the Central State Thunder Bureau.
The manufacturing process of such high-tech breastplates is extremely complex, and no one outside the Thunder Bureau can fake it.
Upon confirming that they were sent by the Thunder Bureau, Yun Ming felt a pang of anxiety and secretly glanced at Li Yu with some concern.
Although he knew that killing law enforcement officers was a major taboo in Zhongzhou and would definitely be investigated, he did not expect the Thunder Bureau to find him so quickly.
Yunming couldn't help but guess that Sun Chengyu might just be the vanguard, and that a large number of other powerful figures from the Thunder Bureau were on their way.
Moreover, given the methods of the Thunder Bureau, they absolutely have conclusive evidence to prove that Li Yu killed these law enforcement teams.
Thinking of this, Yunming's palms couldn't help but sweat. This was a difficult choice to make.
Seeing Li Yu look at him blankly after hearing about the Thunder Bureau, Yun Ming quickly leaned closer and whispered an explanation:
"The Thunder Bureau is the official organization that handles cases involving Awakened in Central Continent. It was established entirely by Awakened, and a large number of capable Awakened work for it in Central Continent."
"The Thunder Bureau has a very wide influence throughout the Central Continent and is the core force for maintaining order among the Awakened."
To make Li Yu understand the implications of the situation even more clearly, Yun Ming quickly added:
"The Thunder Bureau has a very strong combat capability."
Yunming's earnest reminder was mainly to prevent Li Yu from acting impulsively.
He was well aware of the Thunder Bureau's tough approach to handling Awakened individuals' cases, coupled with their large number of powerful Awakened individuals, making them virtually unbeatable.
Li Yu nodded upon hearing this, indicating that she understood.
In his mind, the Thunder Bureau was essentially a law enforcement team composed of Awakened Ones, dedicated to maintaining order in Central State and handling various cases related to Awakened Ones who broke the law.
However, neither of them expected that Sun Chengyu, who was from the Thunder Bureau, would not threaten Li Yu to surrender, nor did he intend to arrest Li Yu.
Sun Chengyu carefully examined Li Yu from head to toe, his gaze sweeping over her body. After confirming her identity once again, he spoke with a serious expression:
"I'm here this time with a mission from the Thunder Bureau."
“Li Yu, you must be aware that killing the Central State Law Enforcement Team is a serious violation of the laws of Central State.”
Clearly, Sun Chengyu was fully aware of what Li Yu had just done; he simply chose the right moment to appear.
Seeing Li Yu so calm, his expression as deep and unfathomable as the ocean, Sun Chengyu involuntarily swallowed, secretly marveling at him:
'As expected of the Archery God Li Yu, just standing there, the invisible pressure of death emanating from him made me a little afraid.'
"Those higher up are insane! They actually sent a mere squad leader from the Swift Shadow Division to handle a powerhouse like Li Yu! Aren't they pushing me into a fire pit?"
Sun Chengyu paused, a complex look in his eyes, before continuing:
"Having committed such a grave mistake, you should be severely punished according to the laws of Zhongzhou!"
"But the situation is special now. Thunder Bureau has a special mission that requires your help."
Then, as planned, Sun Chengyu deliberately spoke in a deep voice:
"If you agree, I can go on to explain the details of this mission and reduce the punishment after the mission is completed."
Although Sun Chengyu spoke in a very veiled way, Li Yu and Yun Ming could still understand what he meant.
If Li Yu agrees to help the Thunder Bureau complete this mission, then the matter of him killing the law enforcement team will not be investigated further.
Upon hearing this, Yunming was overjoyed and even considered agreeing on Li Yu's behalf.
Such a rare stroke of luck, being able to escape punishment, is not something everyone has the opportunity to encounter, nor is it something that just anyone is qualified to be exempt from punishment.
Getting such a concession from the Thunder Bureau is like a windfall.
Upon hearing this, Li Yu frowned slightly, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes.
He knew that there might be many complex factors involved, but it seemed to be a way to solve the current predicament.
After a moment's thought, Li Yu slightly moved the arrow that had been aimed at the birdman away and coldly asked:
"What mission?"
Seeing this, Yunming breathed a huge sigh of relief and secretly rejoiced.
'So close!'
"That guy from Thunder Bureau was almost killed in Water City."
"When that time comes, his lies as the editor-in-chief of Shuicheng will be useless."
Once the Thunder Bureau truly launches a thorough investigation, not only Li Yu, but he himself will inevitably be targeted by the entire Thunder Bureau and fall into an abyss of no return.
Upon hearing Li Yu's question, Sun Chengyu first looked around to make sure there was nothing unusual, then lowered his voice and said mysteriously:
"Recently, earthquakes have been frequent throughout the Central Plains. After extensive investigation and analysis, the Thunder Bureau suspects that a powerful alien beast is causing trouble underground."
"The power of this strange beast is beyond imagination; its every move has triggered strong seismic fluctuations."
Sun Chengyu's face was full of worry; he was well aware of the seriousness of this crisis.
"These frequent earthquakes have had a serious impact on various parts of Zhongzhou, and the lives and property of the people are under great threat."
"Therefore, Thunder Bureau hopes you can help kill the alien beast and quell this crisis."
Sun Chengyu stared intently at Li Yu, without revealing that the Thunder Bureau's true intention was for Li Yu to control the pulse cannon.
This mission was merely a pretext, a tactic employed by the Thunder Bureau's higher-ups to assess Li Yu's capabilities.
"A strange beast?" Li Yu didn't expect that he would ask for help about something like this.
He secretly thought to himself that it wouldn't be a bad idea to help kill the alien beast.
In this way, he could not only avoid being held accountable by the Central Plains for killing the law enforcement team and resolve his immediate troubles, but he might also obtain a more powerful beast core after killing the beast, further enhancing his strength.
After a moment's thought, Li Yu agreed without hesitation:
"I agree."
"good!"
Sun Chengyu smiled instantly. He hadn't expected the invitation to go so smoothly, and a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders.
He hurriedly took out a small, exquisite glass piece from his pocket, on which a string of chaotic and disordered codes flashed.
Sun Chengyu stared intently at the glass slide, carefully examining the information on it, before looking up and saying solemnly:
"Mr. Li Yu, your analysis of combat capabilities on the Central Plains defense line meets the requirements of Thunder Bureau's mission this time."
"Please go to coordinates 39-107 in Zhongzhou within three days and meet up with the 7th Squad of the Thunder Bureau's Investigation Department."
