"Emergency message, Patrol Squad 4 leader Pang Shuo requests reinforcements."
The female dispatcher wearing a uniform skirt sat in front of the console, skillfully operating the numerous buttons.
After receiving the message, she immediately contacted the person in charge of the Qipan City Patrol Team and reported the news to the director of the Qipan City Superpower Duty Bureau.
A low, husky male voice rang out in the contact room.
"Hasn't reinforcement already been provided?"
"Yes, it has been confirmed that B-level Wood-Type Superhuman Lin Cang was injured and unable to clear the monsters. Pang Shuo requested a second reinforcement."
"Contact the Superpower Association and have them send two people, also call Cheng Yizhou and have him go to the Superpower Association to assemble."
"Yes, Director."
......
The white walls were smeared with large amounts of fresh blood, and the air was filled with a disgusting bloody smell.
Qi Yuan avoided the meat chunks and blood pools on the floor, and finally stopped in place. Ahead were large numbers of monster corpses and meat chunks, with nowhere to step.
"This should be Sister Liu Ying's superpower. It looks like this place has been cleared."
Zhuang Heng squatted down, covered his hand with a layer of metal, and fiddled with the mixed meat chunks, analyzing it.
"Yeah."
Qi Yuan responded absentmindedly, looking around.
He didn't know what else he could do other than hang around uselessly with his pendant function.
Zhuang Heng had been keeping an eye on Qi Yuan's actions and also glanced around. What was this powerful person looking for?
Finally he found his target.
"Look, this is a group photo of the orphanage."
"Oh, okay."
Qi Yuan didn't understand, but looked at it politely.
There were many photos on the wall, most of them were groups of children holding donated supplies posing with the donors. There was nothing special about it.
Although he didn't know why he was called over to look, Qi Yuan glanced over it roughly and nodded to indicate he had seen it.
Hurried footsteps came from the entrance, very rare in this domain.
Generally, whether it was monsters lurking to hunt humans, or humans exploring, none concealed their movements.
The arrival of this person meant they were either extremely confident or telling them there was no malice.
Zhuang Heng took a combat stance, while Miao Miao Rabbit and Qi Yuan hid.
"Zhuang Heng, are you inside?"
Two men in patrol uniforms appeared at the door.
As a probationary member, Zhuang Heng was called "Little Zhuang" wherever he went by his teammates.
But these two were different. Zhuang Heng didn't bother with much courtesy: "How did you know I was here?"
Not knowing his teammates' environment, Zhuang Heng hadn't contacted them.
Their arrival was quite a surprise.
"Can your tricks still fool my Dharma Eye?"
"Squad Leader Pang said the wounds on the monsters should have been caused by you."
The two gave completely different answers. Zhuang Heng unceremoniously punched the bragging teammate on the shoulder: "Don't try to fool me."
The patrol member put on an act, clutching his shoulder and shouting at the other patrol member: "How could you ruin my image?"
"You didn't coordinate with me in advance."
The other patrol member shrugged and said to Zhuang Heng: "Let's go, we took advantage of the time before the next space distortion to come find you. We need to get back and meet up with Squad Leader Pang."
Zhuang Heng was just about to agree when he remembered Qi Yuan and looked back at him.
"Squad Leader Pang is my leader. Shall we go together?"
Qi Yuan's half-moon eyes instantly lit up. Why hesitate over such a great opportunity?
"Sure."
After asking Qi Yuan, it would be impolite not to ask Miao Miao Rabbit. Zhuang Heng looked to her for consent.
The two patrol members exchanged subtle glances. Out of trust in Zhuang Heng they didn't object to him bringing them along.
Under the lead of the two patrol members, the three joined Patrol Squad 4 and its leader, Pang Shuo. Seeing the two strangers accompanying Zhuang Heng, one of whom kept holding up her phone recording, Pang Shuo raised an eyebrow.
Youngsters doing live streams, can't lose face in front of the public.
Pang Shuo tidied his messy hair and walked over. "You're back. Everyone has been very worried about you."
Hearing this, Zhuang Heng was deeply moved. "Yes, Captain."
Such a good sapling can't let those sly old folks take advantage of.
Pang Shuo felt emotional, then said to Qi Yuan and Miao Miao Rabbit: "You two are...?"
"I'm Qi Yuan."
"I'm Miao Miao Rabbit from Big Fish Live Streaming. Feel free to call me Little Rabbit, Miao Miao Rabbit, Miao Miao, anything works."
Sure enough a live streamer. Pang Shuo put on an act to introduce himself: "I'm Patrol Squad 4's leader, Pang Shuo. Everyone calls me Brother Pang, Squad Leader Pang. Call me whatever you like."
"Okay, Squad Leader Pang."
Miao Miao Rabbit gave him a lot of face by immediately sweetly calling him that.
In the corner, the man with the upper half of his body wrapped in bandages turned to the petite woman sitting next to him: "Is Squad Leader Pang usually such an amusing person in private?"
The petite woman uncomfortably moved her leg that was packaged and fixed by splints and gauze. Hearing B-level Superhuman Lin Cang say this, she complained internally.
Amusing? You mean lame, right...
"Heh heh, he's someone who is very good at lightening the mood."
After observing his Patrol Squad 4 teammates, Lin Cang gave a fair evaluation: "Indeed, everyone was gloomy before, completely different than now."
He even had a sympathetic look afterward.
It really isn't easy being a squad leader. At critical moments they still have to sacrifice their image to cheer up their teammates.
The petite woman was polite to outsiders and gave Pang Shuo a lot of face, but Pang Shuo didn't seem to appreciate it much.
"You ran into Old Li and Old Zhang? How are they?"
After listening to Zhuang Heng's report of encountering Brothers Li and Zhang fighting monsters, Pang Shuo's voice boomed powerfully.
Zhuang Heng recounted everything that had happened with the two of them against the monsters, and Brother Zhang being heavily injured and unable to move.
Hearing they were alright, Pang Shuo guffawed loudly and slapped his leg, using his rough big hands to scratch the stubble on his face.
"Those two finally got their comeuppance. When I get back I'll see who's laughing then!"
The petite woman darkened her face, softly asking, "Is it that funny? Hm?"
"Not funny at all."
The petite woman usually went straight for the attack. Pang Shuo was unaware of her true intention and still joking around.
"As a steady squad leader, no matter how funny, I won't laugh unless I can't help it, pfft— "
Seeing this classic mocking expression from Liu Ying, he finally realized. He slapped himself on the forehead.
"I almost forgot. Just now you said those two monsters called this Qi Yuan kid 'Golden Eyes'?"
Having tuned out with one ear and let it exit the other, Qi Yuan snapped back to attention at the keywords.
This concerns me too?
"Yes."
Zhuang Heng nodded affirmatively.
"That lizardman said the next target is the Golden-Eyed human. I was wondering who that was referring to."
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
