Chapter 457: Chapter 456: The Eldest Miss

At the same time, a group of people dressed in black coats stood on the rooftop of a high-rise building.

The leader was a woman with a slender figure. She overlooked the distant city hall, with the hem of her coat making a fluttering sound in the night wind.

“It’s a trap…”

Squeal–

A sudden screeching noise from the earpiece jolted the woman, who ripped it off and threw it away.

She cocked her head and covered her ears, her willow brows tightly furrowed.

“Miss.”

The man beside her was about to help her, but the woman raised her hand to stop him.

A moment later, as the stabbing pain in her ears subsided, her cool voice could be heard, “That place is indeed a trap.”

The man bowed slightly, “Miss, what should we do next?”

“Are you sure that student checked into a room at the city hall reception?”

Turning her head, the woman revealed an almost perfect profile. Her wine-red hair fluttered in the night breeze, and against the backdrop of the brilliantly lit city night, each strand of her hair seemed to shimmer with a crystal-clear luster, like a stunningly beautiful painting.

Zhou Quan’s breath momentarily halted, his gaze filled with admiration, but remembering her identity, he quickly lowered his head.

“Yes, Miss. This afternoon, Han Jiugong personally brought a young man over and used his own ID to open a room. You know, he has never brought anyone personally before, and that young man’s figure is very similar to the one in the video.”

“Figure?”

“Yes, the young man was wearing a mask and a hat, so his face was not clear.”

After a brief silence, the woman said, “What else?”

He tried hard to recall, and suddenly his eyes lit up, “That’s right, that young man had the lizard from the video perched on his shoulder.”

After he finished speaking, the Miss didn’t say anything more, leaving only the howling wind on the rooftop.

Zhou Quan hesitated for a moment and then clenched his teeth, “Miss, shall we give up?”

“Heh.” She coldly chuckled without expression, “I must obtain that dragon. How are things on the Abnormal Administration Bureau’s side?”

“I dispatched men to cause trouble in more than ten places around the outskirts of the city, all five of the Abnormal Administration Bureau’s offices in Bin City are now stretched thin, and the people from the Bureau should be held up as well.”

“Very good.”

The woman nodded in satisfaction and turned to the black-clothed people behind her, “Everyone, take action immediately. Aim to take over the city hall’s reception as quickly as possible.”

Having said that, she spread her arms and leaned backwards, falling off the rooftop.

Seeing this, the others ran to the edge of the rooftop. As they ran, they unbuttoned their coats and leaped off the rooftop.

Beneath them, the road was like a golden river, with the ceaseless roar of passing cars.

The woman somersaulted in mid-air, her coat opening up like a small paraglider. Under cover of the night, she glided toward the reception area of the city hall.

Thud.

Due to prior calculations, these people’s landing spots were precisely within the small courtyard of the reception area.

The quaint courtyard of the city hall reception was reminiscent of gardens in Southern China, with clean water flowing from the artificial hill in the center, and the gentle lighting perfectly highlighting the exquisite beauty of the Jiangnan style.

However, this tranquil beauty was quickly shattered as rifts in space opened up, and dozens of mutant creatures appeared beside them, eyeing the building ahead with predatory intent.

Zhou Quan, seeing the woman nod, waved his hand, “Kill!”

“Roar!”

The Swift Wind Wolf let out a low growl and charged towards the reception like a gust of wind.

Swish!

At that moment, streaks of cold blade light flashed through the dark night.

The head of the Swift Wind Wolf was instantly sliced off, its headless body spraying blood as it ran forward a short distance before crashing heavily to the ground.

This was like a signal, as small dark figures darted among the crowd.

The mutant creatures on the side of the people in black howled as they fell, with large amounts of dark red blood spattering under the moonlight, filling the night air with the smell of blood.

Warm blood splattered on the woman’s fair face. She used her clean fingers to wipe off the blood, staring blankly at the crimson on her fingertips.

Soon the surroundings were strewn with corpses in disarray. The cold moonlight was scattered over the bodies, and the thick fluid flowed through the cracks of the cobblestone path.

A dozen or so Chinese Fast Blade Mantises stood with their blades sheathed, surrounding the woman and the corpses in the middle.

Miss was still staring blankly at the blood on her finger, her tone cold as she said, “Zhou Quan, you have betrayed me.”

Zhou Quan’s face was pale as he retreated, “Miss, I… I’m sorry, they found out about me. I… I need to live, I can’t die.”

The young lady didn’t even glance at Zhou Quan, just stood quietly among the corpses.

At that moment, the sound of chaotic footsteps arose, as hundreds of uniformed Abnormal Administration Bureau agents encircled the entire courtyard, with dozens of arresting dogs fixating their gaze on the only woman still standing.

Zhou Quan retreated behind the Abnormal Administration Bureau agents, looking at the woman standing among the piles of bodies, ultimately felt some reluctance: “Miss, you should surrender… Surrender is the only way to live.”

“Hehe… Hehe.”

Upon hearing Zhou Quan’s words, the young lady began to tremble with laughter.

She placed her blood-stained finger to her luscious lips and licked it several times with her tender tongue, closing her eyes and showing a look of ecstasy.

“No good, take her down!”

Just then, the woman suddenly opened her eyes.

Dark green flames ignited within her pupils, and an immense presence swept through the surroundings in a mere instant.

The Chinese Fast Blade Mantis stiffened, its body trembling incessantly.

The arresting dogs were even lying on the ground, whimpering.

The woman shifted her gaze, looking at Zhou Quan for the first time.

A radiant smile appeared on her stunning face.

“If you want to live, I’d rather see you dead!”

…

Shao Zifeng stood in front of the window, quietly watching Bin City shrouded in the night.

At this moment, he was in Han Jiugong’s home, a placement that Shao Zifeng hadn’t expected.

Truly, a sly fox.

No, that’s not right.

According to the saying ‘a cunning rabbit has three burrows’, it should be a crafty rabbit.

Still not right.

Seems like all three burrows are for his own use?

Qiuqiu, not being its usual mischievous self, lay obediently on his shoulder, with Bin City’s colorful neon lights reflecting in its eyes.

“Sigh.”

After watching for a while, Shao Zifeng grew somewhat bored and tilted his head to nuzzle Qiuqiu’s small head.

“Ying~”

Qiuqiu, who had been focusing on the scenery, glanced at him and disdainfully pushed his big face away with its small paw.

“Aren’t you going to sleep?”

“Ying?”

Upon hearing this, Qiuqiu quickly jumped from his shoulder to the bed, crawled into the blankets, and stuck out its small head, even beckoning him with a little paw.

“Here I come!”

Shao Zifeng approached with a smile, pretending to pounce as Qiuqiu cooperatively buried its little head into the blankets.

Suddenly, the room’s lights dimmed.

Shao Zifeng noticed his shadow stretching long across the opposite wall.

No, it wasn’t that the lights were dimming, it was that the outside was too bright.

With that thought, he quickly turned around.

He saw the city’s previously peaceful sky now enveloped in a blinding light, with a visible shockwave spreading rapidly.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At that moment, a loud noise erupted, and Shao Zifeng watched as the glass before him trembled and shattered, countless tiny shards reflecting light as they hurtled towards him, time seeming to stand still.

Then he felt a weight on his shoulder, as Qiuqiu leaped back onto it.

The exploding flames instantly melted the glass shards, and the explosive aftermath continued to spread outward with a rumbling sound.

Qiuqiu’s gaze was fixed on the fireball, emitting a low growl from its throat.

As the fiery orb slowly dissipated, Shao Zifeng’s eyes widened.

There, a gigantic dragon-like mutant creature was circling above the city.

It was wrapped in dark green flames, continuously roaring as it breathed fire down below.
