The group hurried toward the gate.
Yu Ran was playing a game in the lobby when she heard the noise and looked up.
When she saw the box on Lin Xiao's back, she was struck dumb, frozen in place, her face turning pale.
Yu Ran only realized what had happened after the group left the hall and the branch office.
She quickly got up, wanting to run out of the hall.
Just then, Qin Feng came out from downstairs. When he saw Yu Ran, he asked with some confusion, "Xiao Ran, where are you going?"
As if grasping at a straw, Yu Ran hurriedly asked Qin Feng, "Old Qin, did the captain just take that mid-level soul weapon?! Why did he take that thing? Did something serious happen?"
Qin Feng's expression was serious as he said, "Xiao Ran, this is a secret of the bureau. You are not an Awakened One, so you don't need to know about this."
Upon hearing this, Yu Ran's eyes immediately reddened, and she angrily shouted, "What do you mean I don't need to know?! I'm also a member of the Mist Bureau! Just because I haven't awakened, don't I even have the right to know?"
Qin Feng scratched his head, somewhat helplessly saying, "The entire base city is in danger right now. It's a big deal. Even if you knew, it wouldn't make a difference. Not to mention you, even I couldn't change anything."
Hearing Qin Feng's words, Yu Ran was taken aback, her expression filled with worry: "Is it that dangerous?"
"Yes, what we can do now is to do our job well and not distract them."
Yu Ran remained silent for a moment, then said no more.
…………
Lin Xiao and his group left the hall and headed to the parking lot.
On the way, Colin said, "I just called Bowen and got detailed information about Lillian."
Lillian was the name of the woman who reported the incident.
Lin Xiao nodded: "The situation at headquarters is critical. Let's go directly to Lillian, deal with her matters, and then go to headquarters."
Colin nodded.
Just then, Li Mu looked at Zhu Yunxiao beside him, frowned slightly, and asked, "What are you doing following us?"
Lin Xiao and Colin also looked at Zhu Yunxiao.
Zhu Yunxiao's expression was filled with hatred as he said, "My father was killed by them, and I will take revenge!"
After hearing this, the group fell silent for a moment before Lin Xiao asked, "What is your awakened ability?"
Zhu Yunxiao said, "I am a physical enhancement type Awakener. My physical strength is much stronger than others of the same level. I can go for a long time without eating or drinking."
Wang Qiwen was completely dumbfounded: "...Isn't this the turtle's ability?"
Zhu Yunxiao's expression immediately turned awkward, and then he said, "I can use my stamina to wear down my opponent! And my recovery ability is also very strong..."
At this point, Zhu Yunxiao thought of Lu Ning's battle earlier and said somewhat dejectedly, "It was just normal recovery, not as good as this officer's."
Lin Xiao and the others looked even stranger.
Compared to Lu Ning... who can compare?
Lin Xiao thought for a moment, then said, "Your strength is not strong enough, so going there won't be of any use. If you really want to do something, go to the Tree Bar and inform the bar owner, Tyrone, that there are Divine Graces in the base city and that the headquarters of the Mist Bureau has been attacked, and the entire base city may be in danger. Ask him to mobilize all the Awakened Ones he knows to help the Mist Bureau headquarters. The Mist Bureau will reward you afterwards."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunxiao thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "Okay!"
Do you know where the Tree Bar is?
"Yes, I know, I've been there."
Then, Zhu Yunxiao quickly ran towards the Tree Bar.
Lu Ning and his group got into their respective cars and headed towards Lillian's residence based on the information provided by Colin.
However, while they were on their way, they suddenly saw that the advertising screen on a building ahead of them suddenly started displaying static.
As the snowflakes disappeared, the scene transformed into a place resembling a newsroom.
A stunningly beautiful woman wearing a black halter-neck dress was standing there.
The appearance of this woman made Lin Xiao and his companions' eyes widen, and they almost stopped the car.
Lu Ning and Wei Xuan were riding in the car assigned to Lu Ning.
Upon seeing the woman, Wei Xuan exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't that Lillian?! How come she's on TV?"
Lu Ning shook his head: "I don't know."
The next moment, Colin's voice came through the phone: "It's possible that the TV channel was forcibly switched by the entertainment group's technicians."
Upon hearing this, Lu Ning, Wei Xuan, and everyone else on the phone fell silent for a moment.
Lin Xiao said with a serious expression, "It's probably Tianxing Entertainment. As the leading entertainment group in the base city, they have the means to do this in a short time. So it seems that Han Yu's joining Happy Paradise wasn't just because of the experiment, but also related to Tianxing Entertainment!"
"What does this woman want?" Qiu Yuelin asked, her voice filled with confusion.
Not only were they puzzled, but all the pedestrians on the street stopped in their tracks, and even many of the vehicles on the street stopped at this moment.
As a powerful figure in the Kingdom of Joy, Lillian possesses extremely strong charm, captivating many ordinary people even through a screen, making them feel as if their souls have been bewitched.
On the screen, Lillian lifted the hem of her black dress and gave an elegant bow to the camera. Then, a captivating smile appeared on her face: "Let me introduce myself. My name is Lillian. I'm here today to ask you all for a favor."
Lillian knew no one would answer, so she spoke directly to herself. However, this time her voice became layered and complex. Although it was still alluring, it was as if countless strange voices were ringing in her ears.
