" Manna is indeed amazing," Daiqisi, a hint of surprise on her face, though she tried to remain composed.
"But if you think about it, it's been three days, it's time to see some results!"
The female Knight gave her a resentful look. "Sister, you have to teach me."
"Call your boss," Daiqisi said calmly, "We don't have the authority to investigate; we can only temporarily block the area."
o
The female Knight raised her hand to adjust her wristwatch, still asking, "Is it really here?"
"It doesn't matter if we can't find it," Daiqisi smile. "Just consider it a rehearsal, what do you say?"
The surrounding area is full of residential houses, unlike their previous encounter at the restaurant, so they couldn't identify the suspect.
Keluoge arrived faster than expected; in just five minutes, he quietly appeared beside the female Knight. "Where are you?"
"It's just the surrounding area," the female Knight had already assessed the situation, "No one has been identified."
The bearded man surveyed his surroundings, immediately understanding the situation, and then began calling out through his wristwatch, "One squad isn't enough, call another one."
o
Before long, a dozen or so plainclothes city guards arrived and took over the positions from the Red Pine Knight.
Keluoge had a general idea of the possible suspects and began to give instructions through hand gestures.
Following Hong Da's example from last time, Manna led everyone to retreat to a distance, not to steal the limelight from the city guards, but to be able to provide support at any time.
The next moment, the city guards scaled the wall and entered the courtyard, then violently broke down the door—a surprise attack, but also a deliberate attempt to alert the enemy.
Then—an explosion was heard!
"Damn," Ranxue's lips twitched, "Using explosives in a downtown area, looks like a big fish."
The next moment, several blades of light shot into the sky, clearly indicating that the Knight in the city guards had also been enraged.
A figure flashed by, followed by another, and then Keluoge's cold snort, "Trying to escape? Dream on!"
The city guards fought fiercely, while the Knight of Red Pine had it relatively easy, only dealing with a few uncooperative residents.
The boy squatted in the corner, watching the scene indifferently. The little snow hawk on his shoulder was startled awake by the noise, its eyes still sleepy.
It opened its mouth for food, but the boy ignored it. In this situation, if you were to have a big one—guess how we'd both die?
Just then, a faint voice came from the northwest side, "One and a half kilometers away."
So you're still here? Wu Youren was secretly pleased and muttered to himself, "The things from the first half of the night—"
The faint voice continued, "This is a busy city. The military can't find Weird Qi; they'll definitely need to use Ability User."
"I'm registered in Liang, especially in Tianjing, so I have to avoid them."
"Then there's no rush," the young man said calmly. "We'll contact each other again when we get to the Red Pine office."
"There's a very high chance that it's Parasitic Weird there," Chen Quanxu, using some kind of avatar to conceal his true form.
"They escaped from the military's cordon during the first half of the night."
"Awesome! "Wu Youren could only silently give a thumbs up.
He had a dispute with the military in the first half of the night, and he was still thinking about whether he could use this person's abilities to search.
However, after the military brought in Ability User, Chen Quanxu did not take the initiative to contact them again, believing that they were wary of the Hall of Extraordinary Masters.
Who would have thought that while the fear of the Hall of Extraordinary Masters was genuine, this person still dared to keep a close watch from afar.
He muttered to himself, "I think it's easier to do at night."
However, Chen Quanxu's suggestion had its own reasons. "It would be more effective for Ability User to keep a close eye on that guy."
"Your safety is the most important thing," Wu Youren said, then fell silent.
After holding back for a while, Kenpa finally couldn't help but ask, "What are you muttering about?"
"I need to figure out how to use telepathy!" the boy chuckled. "I'm training Little Ha."
"Oh," Kenpa, though he didn't know whether he truly believed it or not; at least on the surface, he appeared to have just realized something.
"Then teach me too," the female archer said casually, still watching the battle in the distance.
The boy smoothly changed the subject, "I'm still figuring it out myself. Who are you discussing this time?"
" Manna, I suppose," the female archer replied in a muffled voice, "If it were me, I might not have time to learn this."
Don't say anything, everyone gets ahead because of the Hong Da shots, it's normal to have an advantage when you're close to them.
"The main issue is the current situation," the male archer added, "We need to stockpile some supplies."
Even with the instructors stockpiling supplies, it's not enough to be safe; they need to find Instructor Hong). So, they have to perform exceptionally well!
Kenpa smiled slightly, " Manna is also quite reassuring to everyone."
"I was just asking casually," the boy said nonchalantly, "This time, it looks like it's a sure thing."
He didn't even need to say anything; the explosion had already been orchestrated, and the situation couldn't be more stable than it could be.
"Shall we rest for a bit and head back tomorrow?"
"If we can hold on, let's try to persevere a little longer," the male archer said. "The situation in Tianjing doesn't look good."
It's not just bad; everyone knows that a Parasitic Weird has appeared, and the situation is extremely critical!
Of course, Tianjing also has the Divine Might Knight, the Hall of Extraordinary Masters, and even the Nation-Guarding Knight, so it is unlikely to fall easily.
But what about ordinary people?
Among those present, none were particularly compassionate, but compared to the aforementioned beings, the Knight was merely an ordinary person!
To put it another way: saving Tianjing is saving ourselves!
The other Knight nodded slightly upon hearing this. For both public and private reasons, there was no need for us to rush back!
"I'd love to stay," the boy said seriously, "But I'm worried about Little Ha —it's gotten so thin!"
"He's gotten so thin! Nobody knows how to respond to that. His body is hidden in his feathers, only you know whether he's really thin or not!"
But if it's a young bird that's growing rapidly, are you really short of birdseed just because it's thin?
Upon hearing this, Daiqisi raised an eyebrow, "Give it something good to eat?"
"That's not what I meant," Wu Youren shook his head, "I meant that staying up late is bad—never mind, I won't go back now."
Before long, Keluoge returned, carrying a man in his hand, and was arranging the city guard squad.
The female Knight did manage to find the time and rushed over. "The boss said there will be follow-up arrests. Are you guys going to join?"
Manna shook her head and yawned. "I need to go back and rest. Can we leave tomorrow?"
She insisted on doing this, even though it was something that had already been discussed.
"Yes," the female archer nodded cooperatively, her face also showing concern, "The situation on Red Pine's side is not optimistic."
"No way?" the female Knight exclaimed in surprise. " Tianjing is really tense right now. The boss has already agreed to your autonomy."
"Let's set a timeframe then," Kenpa said, trying to smooth things over. "We can't stay here indefinitely."
"Don't try to pull that 'Little Hong' act," the Great Knight said with an air of authority, "Just tell me how much more you want."
"It's really not about the money," Manna said seriously. " Red Pine is currently experiencing a shortage of supplies, and the City Guard Bureau is facing difficulties—"
"We need it more," Keluoge stated without hesitation.
"You, Red Pine, only need to consider one Martial Academy; my City Guard Bureau has to consider the entire Tianjing —learn more from your master!"
Then this person went silent, obviously busy with something else.
The female Knight understood her boss's meaning and quickly escorted the gentlemen back to Red Pine's office.
Whether the other party is holding out for a higher price or genuinely wants to return to Red Pine, it's always good to be careful and maintain a good relationship.
The nine people rested until the afternoon before gradually waking up.
The female Knight was also very familiar with the Red Pine office; she had already ordered various snacks and drinks for everyone and even cleared out a space for chatting.
She also noticed that the boy with the bird liked to sit outside in the sun and wasn't very interested in chatting.
But what she couldn't understand was why the other eight Knight of Red Pine were so concerned about a Knight Apprentice.
But it doesn't matter if she doesn't understand; she'll take care of everything. The boss also said that Red Pine is a complex place, and she shouldn't be presumptuous.
It wasn't quite dark yet, but it was already quite cold outside. Although the little snow hawk had been trained very well, it still started chirping.
I don't know if it's from the cold or from being hungry.
After dinner, everyone rested for about half an hour before starting preparations for tonight's nighttime gathering.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, the young man walked up to Instructor Burning Blood and whispered a few words to him.
The disciplinary inspector nodded slightly, expressionless, then approached Kenpa. The two whispered for a while and proposed today's street sweeping direction.
Apart from the female Knight of the City Guard Bureau, everyone knew who the real advisor was—the two male Knight had never spoken up before.
Everyone's interest was immediately piqued. Although Little Wu was young, he never spoke without a purpose.
This time, the group went to the southeast of Tianjing, where there were more small vendors and the standard of living was slightly better than in the slums.
The car stopped at a street corner, and the group exchanged glances before beginning their street sweeping for the evening.
The scan lasted for more than four hours, and the eight hearts that were initially full of anticipation gradually grew cold.
However, no one questioned the boy further, and there were no private inquiries; wasn't the family present the whole time?
It's all street sweeping anyway, so it doesn't matter where you sweep. If it makes Little Wu unhappy, then it's pointless.
Suddenly, Wu Youren stopped and turned to look at him, following his Ranxue and Kenpa.
"That courtyard," the boy pointed, "Keep everyone under control, and be careful."
Without hesitation, Ranxue called for the others, and in less than a minute, everyone was ready for battle.
The female Knight, who was with Manna, asked in a low voice upon seeing this, "Are you going to do it yourselves?"
This is a very rare occurrence. Last night, we encountered some strange occurrences, which is why we called Keluoge.
Manna thought for a moment and decided to follow precedent, "Have your boss bring the elite troops over here as soon as possible! There might be danger."
When the Eight Knight of Red Pine arrived, they had indeed not discussed a contingency plan for taking action on their own.
Wu Youren deliberately remained vague; he genuinely intended to subdue the human race infested with the Parasitic Weird monster so he could conduct an experiment.
However, being with these people would likely make things difficult; one could only try to skirt around the edges.
Keluoge arrived in less than ten minutes, still smelling of alcohol, accompanied by two Knight.
He found Manna first, "What's the meaning of this? I heard you're planning to make a move?"
