A group of people stood in front of the screen in the lobby, carefully observing the figures on the screen, even more attentively than if they were watching porn.

Finally, a communications officer stepped forward to answer everyone's questions, "Captain Mao has sent back new information."

Logically speaking, Captain Mao should have reported to them immediately after finding Lu Bai.

He was initially busy dealing with the chainsaw maniac, and later he was shocked by Lu Bai's slash. It was only when he had some free time to travel that he remembered to report on his work.

"Show me."

Minister Zhang smiled.

Unfortunately, before his smile could fully bloom, a new message interrupted his mood.

Two officers on duty rushed in, shouting, "Something strange has appeared on the second floor of the building! There have already been casualties!"

Given the current high density of strange occurrences at the containment center, it's already fortunate that it's taken so long for something strange to break into the building.

Although they had anticipated this, many of the higher-ups still appeared somewhat flustered.

"Have you determined what the strange thing is?"

"Activate the first emergency response plan."

What is the casualty situation?

The shelter is not in the city center, so it won't be a building that's dozens of stories high.

This building, which served as the Temporary command center, was only five stories high.

Therefore, the appearance of something strange on the second floor means that they are already very close to it.

Chaos erupted in the hall, but in the end, Minister Zhang stepped forward and made the final decision.

He took a deep breath, then raised his voice to make sure everyone in the room could hear what he was saying.

"Activate the first emergency plan; everyone else, go to the rooftop."

After the order was given, the high-ranking officials present immediately went to the rooftop under the protection of security personnel.

The announcement over the loudspeaker in the corridor conveyed the message, and everyone passing by looked grave, but at least they didn't cause any trouble before the strange thing arrived.

It is worth mentioning that the security forces at the Temporary command center were not weak.

Two companies of troops were stationed on each floor; even if they couldn't eliminate the strange invading force, they could at least buy some time.

Squeak~

The iron gate to the rooftop was pushed open.

The crowd filed in, rushing to the rooftop. Before they could even catch their breath, they immediately busied themselves with finding out what was happening.

One of the high-ranking officials had his psychological defenses broken down, his face was extremely dejected, and he collapsed to the ground.

"Are you sure?"

Minister Zhang's face was equally grim, and he even harbored a sliver of hope that his subordinates had made a mistake.

"It can't be wrong."

The secretary's hands were trembling slightly as she held the tablet, which was displaying surveillance footage from the second-floor corridor.

She was a woman wearing a white sundress.

Her long, jet-black hair cascaded down her sides, and her deathly pale complexion made the blood flowing from her eyes and lips stand out all the more, making her dark circles seem almost insignificant in comparison.

The appearance itself was already bizarre enough, but in the surveillance footage, she was crawling on the ground with her limbs twisted.

Even just looking at it through a screen is enough to send chills down your spine, let alone the fact that this eerie creature is not far away from them.

Sequence 153-- Kayako.

The low sequence number only proves that Kayako's past behavior was not yet capable of killing thousands of people in one fell swoop.

This doesn't mean that this strange creature is easy to deal with.

Unlimited resurrection, unlimited clones, teleportation, wall-passing, visual control, mental attacks, thought control, spatial control, and so on.

Based on previous information, Kayako's mysterious power is almost invincible, and there is absolutely no feasible way to deal with it.

Even so, no one can guarantee that Kayako only possesses the abilities she has demonstrated.

Ta-da-da~

A helicopter hovered over the rooftop. Since the rooftop was crowded with people and there was no space to land, it had to drop down two rope ladders.

Looking up at the rescue helicopter, whose carrying capacity was pitifully small, Minister Zhang subconsciously clenched his fist.

This means that most people on the rooftop at this moment are not eligible to ride.

If given a choice, no one would willingly choose to die.

Minister Zhang didn't know how to begin explaining the situation to everyone.

Of course, this was so obvious that even without his explanation, the people on the rooftop could realize it.

The noise on the rooftop gradually subsided, leaving only occasional reports of the situation; the overall atmosphere was filled with an indescribable sense of despair.

"The two teams on the second floor have lost contact; the possibility of them being completely wiped out cannot be ruled out."

"The third floor is now fully secured."

Kayako is on the third floor!

Those with a quick mind turned to inquire about Lu Bai's whereabouts; Master Lu had become their only hope.

Director Lu Bai Service and Research Guarantee Bureau was sweating profusely, and kept trying to contact Captain Mao.

As news of Kayako's approach grew closer, Minister Zhang's secretary finally made up his mind and said to Minister Zhang, "Minister, you should leave now."

Just then, a phone call came directly to Minister Zhang's cell phone.

The caller ID showed Mao Siyu.

When Minister Zhang pressed the call button, it wasn't Captain Mao's voice that came from the other end of the line.

"Hello? Am I late?"

Although they hadn't spent much time together, Minister Zhang immediately recognized Lu Bai's voice.

Even the most composed person will inevitably experience intense emotional fluctuations under such circumstances.

Minister Zhang couldn't even control his voice. "Master Lu? Where are you now?"

Upon hearing the name "Master Lu," everyone around turned their attention to Minister Zhang.

"Are we already downstairs?"

Minister Zhang's expression changed drastically. He quickly pushed through the crowd and went to the edge of the rooftop to look down.

The others also leaned against the railing, just like Minister Zhang.

Looking down, one could indeed see Lu Bai, Captain Mao, and a group of soldiers standing in the open space in front of the building.

Just seeing Lu Bai's figure brought tears to the eyes of many people on the rooftop.

Without experiencing despair, it's hard to understand the immense impact of seeing hope amidst despair.

Even some high-ranking officials who were known for their composure shouted excitedly at Lu Bai.

"Master Lu!"

"Guardian God!"

"Great! We're saved!"

Lu Bai chuckled and waved towards the rooftop, then shouted in a deep voice, "Esteemed seniors upstairs, I am Zhang Wuji, the Ming Cult. If you trust me, feel free to jump down. I will use the Heaven and Earth Great Shift to catch you!"

To be honest, he was just making a joke.

But he clearly underestimated his importance in people's minds.

Upon hearing his words, one staff member actually climbed over the railing without checking and then jumped.

"!"Um?

Lu Bai's eyes widened involuntarily.
