"Boom--"

Suddenly everything went black as a deluge of bricks, stones, and dirt surged in, and a thick, furry rabbit leg followed the churning earth, stomping through the ground.

In the darkness, a pair of enormous eyes, like giant red lanterns, looked down upon the entire city from high above.

Anyone in Yangcheng who hadn't rested saw this giant rabbit whose head almost reached the sky.

Someone murmured, "This... looks like one of the organization's Little Rabbits, doesn't it?"

"It must be him, Bai Yang has come here?"

"Aren't we cooperating with the organization? What are we doing? It looks more like sabotage."

"That can't be right! My Eldest Sister said we have a very good relationship with the organization!"

"I'm a little curious, let's go check it out!"

The crowd was buzzing with discussion, but those at the eye of the storm were not as relaxed as they were.

With a flash of light, Wen Keke, Liang Xinjin, and Wang Yao, who should have been buried in the ground, were teleported to the surface in time.

"You guys are really slippery, even harder to kill than Dù'è."

Bai Yang stood in the giant rabbit's furry palm, leaned down, and smiled at the three people who had been teleported out.

Wen Keke's gaze first fell on the large hole in the ground, then slowly swept across the entire area, and she immediately spotted several familiar corpses lying under the Cross Modian behind her.

The surrounding area was densely packed with members of their own organization, who dared not get too close, forming a rather useless encirclement from a distance.

She was so angry that the veins on her temples were throbbing, and her chest was churning with barely suppressed rage.

All their hard work over the past few days has been ruined!

Wang Yao, who was standing nearby, was also looking around. When she saw that the elevator Weird Object, which she had painstakingly dismantled and brought back from the Instance with the help of her team, had been pulled out of the ground, with its malfunction indicator light constantly on and black smoke billowing out, her vision went black.

On the deformed wreckage of the elevator, stood an angry-looking Little Bear Puppet and Puppet Little Cat.

Even more shocked than them were the onlookers who stood by and watched, not daring to step forward and intervene.

Who would understand? First, they saw Modian, like a madman, wielding a sacred silver Cross and easily taking down a team of more than ten people. Then they saw several small, cute Puppet clinging tightly to the outer glass cover of the elevator, and with the help of a giant Little Rabbit, they managed to uproot the Weird Object from the ground.

That was a colossal object, over ten meters tall and incredibly heavy! And yet, it was lifted up by hand by tiny Puppet!

Although it was somewhat inappropriate, they felt that pulling up the elevator with the Puppet was like pulling up a radish—pulling it out by the roots along with the mud, and then just tossing it away carelessly.

It was truly unforgettable.

"Bai Yang, you'd better explain to me what you mean by this?" With everyone watching, Wen Keke n't care less about maintaining her good-natured persona.

She was so angry she almost vomited blood!

She was able to easily handle the attacks and ambushes from the Calamity Crossing Squad and the Authorities, as well as the infiltration by Authorities agents.

Only the members of this organization could infuriate her to the point of madness every time they appeared.

Every time she finished meeting them, she felt her mindset was unstable and needed further training. Every time she thought she had almost finished training, the other party would give her a big surprise, repeatedly breaking her defenses, just like now.

She never imagined that her underground base could be destroyed, and even the installed elevator could be pulled out.

Bai Yang clapped his hands with a smile, and the Puppet returned to his side, no longer making any moves.

Only Modian continued to indiscriminately attack anyone who approached him, which was one of the reasons why no one among the onlookers dared to get close.

Modian's temper is notorious.

"Miss Wen Keke, don't be angry. We were forced into this situation." Bai Yang pointed to the people lying on the ground, smiling innocently.

"It's all because of these clueless idiots. I came to tell you good news, but they dared to lie to us and say you weren't here. Even if you were, they wouldn't want to see me."

Wen Keke instantly realized that these were all newly promoted experts from her Family Clan. She had been pampered with good food and drink, but they died before she could even brainwash them or put them to use. And she had the audacity to offend these two troublesome guys.

She immediately smiled, dusted herself off, and said, "How could I not want to see you? Mr. Bai Yang was right to reprimand them; these people were too arrogant."

Bai Yang nodded affirmatively. "Yes, yes, that's what I thought too. The Master clearly said you were here, but they said you weren't, so they must be lying to me."

"I've already gotten rid of those few scoundrels who were trying to sow discord between us. You're welcome."

Upon hearing this, Wen Keke's face visibly stiffened.

She never expected that even though she had hidden herself so well, she was still as transparent as a ghost in the eyes of this organization.

She had deliberately avoided the Black Cat's eyes, but it was all in vain, and she even caused this trouble.

"But what's going on here?" Wen Keke pointed around, "Those people offended Mr. Bai Yang and should apologize, but I just finished building this..."

"Oh, this?" Bai Yang said, feigning a sudden realization, pointing to Modian. "My colleague has a bit of a temper. When he was chasing after these guys who offended the organization, they were yelling things like, 'If we kill them, we'll be even less likely to get into your newly built underground base.' We were just testing them out."

"Now it seems that Miss Wen's facilities do indeed have problems; they break down too easily. What if they encounter other people with ill intentions?"

Standing to the side, Liang Xinjin, covered in dust and dirt, twitched the corner of his mouth. He had overseen the construction of this underground facility, which could defend against even A-Rank attacks.

Aside from Bai Yang, that madman, who else would choose to pull the elevator out directly instead of damaging its exterior?

Wang Yao was the quickest of the three to adjust her mindset. She couldn't help it; she was the one who usually looked after Black Cat, so she wasn't surprised by anything the organization did.

"Mr. Bai Yang, since you're here to discuss matters, can you ask your colleague to stop now?" Wang Yao asked, looking at Modian was still waving the Cross and banging it on the ground.

Bai Yang glanced at Modian and saw him excitedly tapping on the exposed iron block on the ground as if he had found a fun toy. A hint of helplessness flashed in Bai Yang's eyes.

"Modian, the Master sent you here, not to cause trouble."

Modian looked up, his dark eyes splattered with bloodstains on the ink-black paint of his tears, making him appear even more bizarre and insane.

Seeing his gaze fall upon them, Liang Xinjin and Wang Yao instinctively stepped in front of Wen Keke, only relaxing slightly as Modian slowly straightened up and stopped attacking.
