Dawn

As Lu Bai finished speaking...

It was as if someone had flipped a light switch in the room; a bright light suddenly appeared, instantly illuminating the entire Underground City.

"Huh?"

"The holographic screen has been restored?"

"Is the repair complete?"

"Very good."

"Here! Come quick, my wife is injured!"

Humans are inherently afraid of darkness and yearn for light.

A dark environment, hiding and privacy... can easily arouse the desires in people's hearts.

This is why many criminals prefer to commit illegal acts at night, as it makes them feel comfortable and safe.

Correspondingly, when in a brightly lit environment, even if people have such thoughts, they are too embarrassed to act on them.

Truly inhuman thugs are ultimately a minority.

Therefore, even if Lu Bai only did the thing of lighting up the entire Underground City, it would immediately reduce the chaos in various places by more than 70%.

Li Shan stared blankly at Lu Bai. When she came to her senses, she coughed twice awkwardly, hoping that the all-powerful junior in front of her hadn't seen her lapse in composure.

City Hall Building.

As the power center of the entire Underground City, ensuring the smooth operation of the city council is of paramount importance.

Even before Lu Bai illuminated the Underground City, the building was brightly lit.

Even when the Underground City suddenly lit up, it only brought the busy work in the building to a brief pause.

In the office of the Standing Committee of the City Council, secretaries were constantly coming and going, reporting on the situation.

On the left side of the desk, the nameplate bearing the words "Xiao Zhengyan" gleamed with the luster of power.

Xiao Zhengyan, dressed in black casual clothes, glanced at the brightly lit window, casually mentioned to investigate, and then didn't ask any further questions.

From major tasks like disaster relief and preparations for war with the Mona people, to minor ones like the mobilization of armed forces and the City Direct Military, he was responsible for making all these decisions.

After all, even the smallest problem here can affect the future of the entire Underground City and even humanity.

"Speaker Xiao, Gucheng Industry has sent a message requesting priority..."

The secretary beside him was still reporting on various aspects of the situation. The mentally exhausting work made Xiao Zhengyan irritable, so he lit a cigarette.

He breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "How are the preparations for the meeting going?"

Upon hearing this, the secretary at the back of the line immediately stepped forward. "We haven't been able to contact Speaker Wang yet, but the pre-meeting preparations are almost complete."

Xiao Zhengyan stood up and walked towards the door. "Then we won't wait any longer. The meeting will begin in ten minutes."

A large group of people marched down the corridor. Out of the corner of Xiao Zhengyan's eye, he saw that fires and smoke were rising again over the Seventh Livability City, followed by the faint sound of weapons.

He couldn't help but sigh, turned his head, and whispered to his secretary who was following closely beside him, "Old Duan, could you please come to my house?"

The man called Old Duan nodded immediately and said, "Speaker, don't worry, I'll be right there. As long as I'm alive, Xue Yin will be fine."

"Lu... how long can this last?"

Pu Xueli gazed at the light above the shelter, which was as bright as day.

They said, "Let there be light," and the world was lit.

He couldn't determine where the light source came from at all, as if it were a divine power that only gods were qualified to possess.

Lu Bai glanced at the ability description and said, "Don't worry, the cost of maintaining this ability is negligible for me."

The Team Six Captain gave him a slightly cautious look and added, "Deputy Captain Lu, if you don't mind, I'll report this to the city council to avoid them wasting their time investigating."

In fact, Lu Bai's performance in killing the president and single-handedly destroying the Can Society was already quite outstanding. No one expected him to do something so unexpected; he was simply unfathomable.

Even high-ranking figures in the refuge, such as the Captain of the Team Six and Pu Xueli, couldn't help but feel somewhat awkward in front of Lu Bai.

Li Shan noticed the awkward atmosphere and spoke up, "Ahem, if there's no urgent mission, shall we head to the City Council Building next?"

Lu Bai: "I'm fine with anything."

"Then let's go back to the City Council building first."

Tear~

Inside a Livability Building that did not collapse in the explosion.

The young man, expressionless, tore a still-warm corpse in two.

"How interesting, this wretched place is even more dangerous than the Cultivation World."

That's what he said, but there wasn't a trace of fear in his tone.

He made a brief remark and then continued with his actions, his nostrils flaring as if he were a wild beast searching for its prey.

Before long, he spotted a new target. Without hesitation, he decisively strode towards the direction where his prey was.

The young man walked to the stairwell, which was originally only two people wide. The stairwell had been cracked by the previous explosion and looked so shaky that it seemed like it would collapse with just one step.

However, the young man didn't seem to care about the risk and leaped up, clearing the height of one floor.

He then stepped out of the stairwell and heard someone shouting for help, coming from the window and shouting towards the street.

After the Underground City lit up, order gradually returned, so this cry for help still attracted the attention of quite a few people.

An armored vehicle was parked on the street, and several special agents got out of it, shouting at him to stay calm as they rushed upstairs.

The young man did not back down, nor did he try to hide anything. In front of some onlookers downstairs, he walked to the window and placed his hand on the head of the person who had called for help.

The person who had called for help suddenly began to convulse, and his once healthy body visibly withered away.

This scene appeared particularly terrifying to those nearby.

Without a doubt, this is a supernatural force.

The armored vehicle driver quickly pulled out his walkie-talkie to explain the situation and stop his colleagues from taking action, while also reporting what had happened.

This is not a situation that ordinary people like them can handle; it would be safer to let professionals like City Direct Military deal with it.

Although crimes are occurring throughout the Underground City, those involving "death fighters" with supernatural powers are still given a higher priority.

The command center quickly made a decision, mobilizing the nearest City Direct Military to handle the situation, while the special agents only needed to guard the scene.

Normally, this would be enough. Even a skilled fighter wouldn't kill so recklessly unless they were suicidal.

Surprisingly, the young man nonchalantly stuck his head out of the window, a ferocious grin spreading across his face.

The next moment.

With a loud "bang," the entire wall was kicked down.

The young man then leaped down from the third floor, eliciting a chorus of terrified gasps from the crowd.
