No one expected the Commander to suddenly ask Baiyu such a question.
Baiyu’s behavior is indeed somewhat uncanny, somewhat unlike a human!
Qiong Jiu and Pang Fei, who know Baiyu well, are not worried at all.
At this moment, after Baiyu responded, the Hound of Houste sat in front of him for a minute, and it did not make any sound.
The Commander withdrew his hand with satisfaction: "Haha, it seems I was overthinking. Baiyu, don’t blame me, it was necessary. In recent years, the infiltration by alien races into our Human Race has been growing stronger. Although we have many spies placed among hostile alien races, many alien races have innate concealment abilities that we humans do not possess.
You must have met that female student who was parasitized by the Ghost-faced Race at that time.
If not for Erza, such persons cannot be sensed at all without careful examination."
"Commander, how dare a common civilian like me blame you.
However, your subordinates do stay true to your style;
One investigator named Qian Xue once forcibly used extraordinary abilities on me, attempting some indescribable actions. I haven’t even told Uncle Pang about this yet."
Baiyu sighed, the smile on his face somewhat irritable.
He was secretly on guard.
This dog has now fallen asleep, presumably because its usage time has ended, and it almost trapped me.
Dealing with these big figures is too dangerous, power...
My own strength is still too weak.
Earlier, the Commander’s aura pressed down on me, and I was like a small boat in a vast ocean, ready to capsize at any moment.
This Double-headed Dog does not harbor hostility towards me like the Double-headed Dragon.
After this incident, I am greatly wary of these bizarre sealing objects.
Qian Xue’s kind of ability to invade minds can be resisted as long as one’s spirit is strong, but this dog... there’s absolutely no way, it is truly a dog.
"Cough, cough, Baiyu, you don’t need to be sarcastic with me there."
The Commander leaned back tactically against the chair, took the revolver from Pang Fei: "The Skull Crusher, looks like you have quite a few good things, but it’s out of bullets.
I’ll take this handgun back and upgrade it into an item of magical properties, at least giving you the means of self-protection when facing danger.
This crowd of Evil God’s followers has already set their sights on you."
The Commander toyed with the handgun.
"You can make it into a magical item?" Baiyu was doubtful.
Beside him, Qiong Jiu chuckled softly: "For the Commander, crafting a handgun into a powerful magical item doesn’t take much effort; the Gunman Sequence naturally has a proficiency in this area."
"And what about this? Commander, can you add a firing mechanism at the guard handle, so bullets can be shot at any moment.
Since you’re already doing it, why not lend me a hand.
If you help with this, the grudge between your investigator and me will be eliminated from now on."
Baiyu slapped the Living Iron Short Blade on the table.
Pang Fei said solemnly, "Baiyu, don’t make trouble. The Commander already agreed to modify an item into something magical..."
"It’s alright, I’m quite idle lately anyway."
The Commander laughed, accepting the short blade: "Want a firing mechanism discreetly added to the hilt, for ambushing others?
An intriguing thought.
If you can break through the remaining four Qi Veins in your body within a month, I’ll forge something even better for you."
"Alright, it’s a deal." Baiyu’s eyes lit up.
Everyone was speechless.
This rascal is audacious enough to extort even the Commander of the Anomaly Bureau.
"Alright, these are just trivial matters."
"My suggestion is, since Baiyu is already under surveillance by these pagans, it would be wise to send him to Erza to study Mechanical Science."
The Commander looked around, speaking slowly.
Pang Fei and Qiong Jiu fell into silence.
The safest place now in Linjiang would be within Erza’s body, where no alien aura could escape the detection of the Human Race’s Guardian Ship.
"It’s possible. I was planning to arrange for Baiyu to study Mechanical Science next. He’s not the only one; a few good seedlings of this batch can also study it."
Pang Fei thought for a moment and nodded.
"Hmm, next up... it’s about the Demon Paper."
The Commander’s gaze fell on the silent Allen: "Captain, what are the recent results?
The Demon Paper was originally contained at the Hades Prison facility, but to ensure safety, I sent out four sheets of Demon Paper separately to the Imperial Research Institute, Red Dragon Research Institute, and Kyoto Magic University.
The remaining sheet of Demon Paper I entrusted to the Captain for sensing if there is more Demon Paper in Linjiang; you should have results by now."
Allen shook his head:
"No harvest, the four sheets of Demon Paper do indeed attract one another for sensing, but I suspect that the total count of Demon Paper is only those four sheets; for them to perform miraculous effects, additional rituals might be needed.
Moreover, the target of the opposing side is the Hades Prison.
With the Prison Warden there, I doubt anyone could make a dent in Hades Prison, which is hailed as an ’Unbreakable Fortress.’
I have captured no less than a hundred Evil God’s followers, most of whom upon verification were from the Abyssal Ascetic Association.
Tonight, if not for the unexpected event of the Armed Department, I planned to cleanse two North District hideouts, which are basically the last active followers of the Abyssal Ascetic Association.
Since we’ve captured this traitor, I believe he might have more useful information in him."
Allen’s gaze shifted to the paralyzed Qi Jie.
The Commander nodded: "Since the Captain has said so, I don’t have any issue.
Next is Old Brother Meng Lei’s affair.
The Judge from the Holy Light Church has traveled all the way to Linjiang; seems like Baiyu’s extraordinary abilities are quite valued indeed."
Baiyu felt uncomfortable.
His extraordinary abilities were only used in a confrontation with Rong Jinshan.
He never thought of deceiving the eyes of these big figures.
But being discovered so quickly, there’s indeed a feeling as if his cards have been exposed.
If too many people know about his bluff with the Holy Light, the effect wouldn’t be effective anymore.
Sunglasses are his weakness.
"Baiyu, demonstrate your extraordinary power."
Meng Lei had only heard of Baiyu’s suspected Holy Light abilities and had never seen them. Now he needed confirmation.
"Um, do I really have to demonstrate? My ability doesn’t have offensive capabilities; it’s mostly suitable for escape and cover-up, but if you really want to see, then watch me."
Baiyu felt quite embarrassed.
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on him, awaiting what wonders he’d produce with his abilities.
"This distance, Tang Xiaoyu, don’t cling to me, keep your hands to yourself, or I’ll call the police!"
Baiyu said sternly, calmly: "Even though my ability isn’t very damaging, once unleashed, it will still cause irreversible harm to you. Are you all sure you want me to use it?"
"Hurry up, I don’t believe Sequence Nine can harm me." Tang Xiaoyu urged.
"Then here I go, really going."
"Go ahead, I’ve faced big storms, not afraid of a newbie like you."
Already somewhat anxious, Tang Xiaoyu moved in closer to Baiyu, her eyes filled with expectation.
The next moment, she regretted it.
With Baiyu’s chant, a dazzling light suddenly exploded from his body.
The entire enclosed meeting room turned into a realm of light...
