"So this kid not only took down three civilian organizations in five days, but also found himself a loyal maid sister?" Director Long stared at the report in his hand, deep in thought.

The task of subduing the civilian organizations was indeed assigned to Wu Liang by him.

Apart from ensuring that afterwards, Wu Liang would have more persuasive power to serve as the chief commander, the most important point was that this task could only be done by him!

There was the Free Will group, with its three leaders who were as high-spirited as rebellious teenagers, and the Awakening Association, which was well-structured, and the Black Market, a complex entity involved in semi-legal transactions nationwide.

Subduing them inevitably involved force, maybe even violence.

Such methods were unsuitable for anyone within the official ranks, as the Black Market likely already had information on official Awakened and Symbionts from the Capital City.

Starting with one affects the others; it wasn't feasible to take turns trying to subdue one of the three. Once action was taken, all three had to be captured swiftly.

So someone powerful yet unfamiliar was needed, someone who wouldn't feel guilty about doing the dirty work, able to handle these three civilian organizations.

Wu Liang was naturally the perfect choice!

Especially the lack of psychological burden was crucial. If any of these organizations were found to be linked with the Promised Land, they might need to be eliminated.

In that regard, Director Long was very confident in Wu Liang, this scoundrel.

He could even casually mention not caring about civilians in front of the elder without unease; eliminating an organization might stress him less than deciding what to have for lunch.

"That sister is beautiful! And her chest is bigger than mine! I suspect that kid has ulterior motives! Dragon, it's disgraceful of him to target victims. Send someone to catch him!"

Zodiac Rabbit muttered, chewing on a lollipop while sulking on the sofa.

Yesterday, when she went with Sister Hong to rescue victims from Wu Yeli's illegal factory, she saw Wu Liang with a pretty sister, claiming she was also a victim.

Right after registering the information of the girl named Luo Fei, Wu Liang took her away, and neither have been reachable since.

This bastard must be plotting something bad!

After hearing Zodiac Rabbit's complaints, Director Long instinctively glanced at her, his gaze lowering.

Hmm, it would be difficult for a normal woman to be flatter than Zodiac Rabbit, completely non-referential!

"I realize you're anxious, but don't spread rumors outside. That girl is linked with the Promised Land, and Wu Liang just messaged me that she's not some maid sister." Director Long helplessly waved his phone.

On it was the message from Wu Liang.

He said he was taking Luo Fei to a secluded place outside the city to research her peculiarities, to avoid affecting regular people.

Considering her connection to the Promised Land, Wu Liang was quite concerned about the potential large-scale supernatural threat she posed.

"Oh, another issue, where did Mingjing Pier go?" Director Long asked confusedly.

Yesterday, he received reports from the Awakened in charge of patrolling that area.

The entire pier had vanished into thin air!

Upon hearing this, Zodiac Rabbit bit into the lollipop with a loud crunch, speaking gravely to Director Long: "That guy's destructive power might be beyond our imagination."

"I initially thought that even though Awakening Association leader Wu Yeli had achieved city-destroying level power, Wu Liang would eventually win, but at least it'd be a fierce battle for a while."

"But that wasn't the case. Normal city-destroying crises are now easily handled by him, including wiping out Mingjing Pier in an instant. Dragon, his growth speed is clearly problematic."

Listening to Zodiac Rabbit's assessment of Wu Liang, Director Long squinted slightly, tapping the table lightly.

He certainly realized Wu Liang's growth speed was absurdly exaggerated.

From their first encounter in Chengyang City, when Wu Liang still had to gradually explore dealing with stronger red-clothed Fierce Ghosts, to challenging Ghost Valley level crises.

Reaching the current surpassing of ordinary city-destroying strength.

He reached this stage in less than a year!

For normal Awakened and Symbionts, getting stronger every few months is already quick; this guy progresses like he's on a rocket!

It's just too bizarre!

"Phew… it's okay, everyone has secrets, right? We just need to know this kid won't oppose humanity at this stage."

As Director Long said this, a complicated expression flashed in his eyes.

He somewhat understood why the elder was so forgiving of Wu Liang's statement of indifference towards the public.

As long as such a person remains aligned with the official stance in the big picture, it's sufficient.

"Speaking of which, I'm quite curious about what he'll discover by taking that girl Luo Fei to a deserted place? A girl under the Promised Land's attention, intriguing..."

......

"Nn… stop… not there..."

Though strange, easily misunderstood sounds reached his ears, Wu Liang still remained expressionless as he watched Luo Fei rolling on the ground.

She seemed to be in an odd state.

Her eyes were as dazed as when she'd once closed herself off during a river incident, and yet Wu Liang sensed her subconscious was alert, though her emotions and thoughts diverted by some inexplicable force.

Snap—

With a snap of Wu Liang's fingers, Luo Fei stopped rolling, her face flushed red.

She first felt the grass beneath her, then her face turned an even deeper red as she seemed to remember her actions just moments ago.

Curled up on the ground, she covered her face with her hands, pretending not to have regained consciousness.

She genuinely didn't know what expression to make towards Wu Liang now, having behaved so disgracefully just now, utterly embarrassing!

"You..."

A moment later, as Wu Liang began to speak, Luo Fei instinctively stood up.

But her face remained red, asking, "Ah… do you have any orders for me?"

Seeing her bashful manner, Wu Liang squinted slightly, asking a bit more seriously: "When did you awaken? Or have you ever symbiotically linked with any Fierce Ghosts?"

He had brought Luo Fei to this isolated area to explain the potential issues she might have.

With her agreement, he had the Nightmare attach to her, guiding her in using her Awakening Ability gradually.

Given the Promised Land's interest in her, her ability must hold something unique.

But each time she used her ability, her emotions and thoughts irresistibly spiraled into uncontrollable extremes.

She's experienced different states: extreme joy, rage, sadness, pain, and what seemed like lust just now.

It's quite abstract.

What kind of Awakened loses control when using their ability?

So Wu Liang suspected she might be a Symbiont, possibly experiencing situations like Jiang Min who struggled to control Fierce Ghost powers.

When asked by her savior, Luo Fei pondered momentarily, confusedly replying: "Mr. Hou, I'm not an Awakened, nor have I experienced the kind of ghostly symbiosis you mentioned. How can a human symbiotically link with a Fierce Ghost?"

"!?"
