107: Chapter 107 The Calamity Beast is Greatly Shocked!

A dozen seconds later, Lu Li, who had rushed over after receiving the message, found it hard to believe.

She had hurried over from the front lines, only to see an escape tunnel left behind by a good-for-nothing?

Initially, she had wanted to blow up the tunnel and force that Disaster Beast out, to prevent endless trouble.

But looking at the situation now, she couldn't be bothered to make such a huge fuss over a good-for-nothing.

“Yes, Captain.”

Jiang Qin was also bewildered. He just left like that?

She had never heard of a Disaster Beast being so easy to talk to.

This Humanoid Disaster Beast seemed like it wasn't even the same species as those ordinary Disaster Beast.

Just then, Lu Li’s phone rang.

Ring-a-ling-a-ling.

Lu Li answered the call. The voice on the other end was filled with shock mixed with intense joy.

“Captain, the Disaster Beast and Remnant Beastss have retreated! All of them! They even left in a hurry without actively destroying any buildings.

Captain, we won big!

They were scared!”

“Good.”

Lu Li replied calmly, then hung up the phone.

Indeed, the Disaster Beast in the residential area were all withdrawing.

Before, they needed to investigate floor by floor, but now it was different.

They crawled out from every corner, not even bothering to hide from the Special Warfare Team Members in sight.

They didn't even attack; they just fled.

They ignored even the probing attacks from the Special Warfare Team Members.

As long as the problem wasn't big, it wasn't a problem.

“Captain, do they have some other scheme?”

Tang Xiaotang looked at the commotion with some disbelief.

“I feel like they are genuinely scared,” Pei Ruanruan said, though she was also surprised. If these Disaster Beast weren't afraid, why would they retreat so easily?

They were even quite orderly.

“Qin Qin, what do you think? Do you two know each other?” Tang Xiaotang took Jiang Qin’s hand and held her close.

“I don’t know…” Jiang Qin was also surprised, but she immediately thought of one possibility.

“Perhaps he thought the Senior would come to help me?”

“Great Senior?” Pei Ruanruan also realized. Given that Senior’s attention towards Jiang Qin, it was quite possible.

But for just that reason, it seemed too strange.

The Senior couldn't possibly be watching Jiang Qin all the time, right? Did he have nothing better to do!

If Lu Li and Tang Xiaotang could hear Pei Ruanruan’s inner thoughts, they would definitely nod vigorously.

Yes, he definitely watched Jiang Qin all the time; he truly had nothing better to do.

“That must be it,”

Lu Li nodded.

“Only he can make these Disaster Beast so wary.”

As Lu Li spoke, she issued an order through the communicator.

“Disaster situation over. Clean up the battlefield. Cleaner Squad, enter the area to restore the community’s water and electricity supply, and construct defensive fortifications simultaneously.”

With the order given, the bewildered Special Warfare Troops in the community sprang back into action.

Although it was baffling, winning was what mattered.

Even though the battle had barely begun, this was better.

The Special Warfare Team Members began cleaning the battlefield, while the personnel from the Special Affairs Bureau and other small helpers from different regions gathered together and returned to the Special Affairs Bureau.

“Captain Lu, having such a capable Great Senior on your side is truly enviable.”

An Ability User from the Imperial Capital was quite jealous.

Even the Imperial Capital, with its S-Class Ability Users, didn't receive such treatment.

To reclaim a city, they could only fight battle by battle, and they were still losing.

“Good luck, just good luck. That Senior suddenly appeared and came in; who could have predicted that?” Lu Li laughed heartily a couple of times, then acted very modestly.

Facing Lu Li’s show of modesty, the Ability Users from other cities offered polite laughter, saying it was hard to judge.

After everyone left.

The live-streaming drone, having nothing else to do, simply started broadcasting the progress of the community's recovery.

And those people who were temporarily forced to sleep on the streets, upon seeing the live broadcast progress, spontaneously began helping the Cleaner Squad clear the debris in the community.

Of course, there were also those who directly moved into the good rooms they found.

However, after the Cleaner Squad finished tidying up.

Those who had moved in directly were first kicked out, and then the rooms were distributed via lottery.

... ...

... ...

On the other side, in a hidden corner underground.

That Humanoid Disaster Beast was standing in front of a group of beings.

This place was an embryonic underground city, built day and night by the Disaster Beast driving the Remnant Beastss.

Although it couldn't be called magnificent, it already had a proper structure.

It even had water, electricity, and broadband.

“Jiu He, looking so pathetic? Lost your territory?”

A Disaster Beast, resembling a girl of about a dozen years old, wearing long black stockings and a short skirt, mocked him.

“As long as I’m alive, I’m not a coward.”

Jiu He was still feeling scared, his back drenched in sweat.

“Luckily, Jiang Qin took the hit from my attack for me. If she hadn't withstood it and gotten hurt, you wouldn't be seeing me now.”

“Fang Xun’s sister?”

“Who else could it be?” Jiu He took a deep breath.

“Last time, when Young Miss was with Fang Xun, even though we had Fang Xun tied up there, he still managed to create a Clone to kill our companions one by one.

Who knows if he left a Clone near Jiang Qin to look after her.

It’s one thing for Jiang Qin to hit me. If I were to hit Jiang Qin, see how anxious he gets.

Damn sister-complex.

Oh right, Jiu Ying.”

Jiu He said, suddenly sizing up the dark-clad girl in front of him.

“Do you think he might like your type?

Young Miss seems to have fallen hard.

Although that Rat said Young Miss lured Fang Xun into taking the bait, I feel like something is off.

Why don’t you try to tempt Fang Xun?

Even though he is strong,

his brain doesn't seem very good, and he’s still an otaku.

If it were you, it should be very easy to reel him in.”

“No way,” Jiu Ying replied, rolling her eyes in a very human-like manner.

“I’m not competing with Young Miss. If she eats me, where would I go to reason with anyone?”

“I won’t eat you.”

As the two were speaking, a voice came from behind the group.

Qi Lian walked over without anyone noticing, and perched on her shoulder was a somewhat smug-looking Flower Branch Rat.

“Young Miss.” * N

Seeing Qi Lian, everyone immediately called out in unison.

Originally, Qi Lian’s status wasn't that high.

But after the last incident, Qi Lian’s status had risen significantly.

Moreover, after everyone saw Qi Lian’s golden pupils that seemed to be burning, they bowed even deeper.

“Jiu Ying,”

Qi Lian first called out to Jiu Ying: “If you want to get close to Fang Xun, I won’t eat you. In fact, I would be very happy if you approached him proactively.”

“Yes, Young Miss,” Jiu Ying immediately nodded fiercely, indicating she understood.

“And one more thing,” Qi Lian glanced at the crowd of Disaster Beast again: “I am very satisfied with today’s events.

Jiu He, well done.”

After Qi Lian finished speaking, a brief silence fell among the Disaster Beast group.

Only Jiu He grinned happily.

After a while, another Disaster Beast stepped out from the crowd.

“Young Miss,”

He looked at Qi Lian somewhat nervously:

“Recently, there have been some unfavorable voices within the clan regarding you.”

“Mm, speak,” Qi Lian naturally knew what those voices were, but she didn't care.

However, since someone brought it up, she didn't mind responding.

“Are you… I mean, are you planning to make Fang Xun your, um…”

The words circled his mouth several times, but the Disaster Beast couldn't think of a sufficiently tactful way to phrase it.

Unfortunately, among the Disaster Beast, there were no IPs from Shandong who could offer guidance.

But Qi Lian didn't care about these things; she spoke directly:

“Yes, I have chosen Brother as my mate.”

As soon as these words were spoken, there was silence again.

On Qi Lian’s shoulder, the Flower Branch Rat lost its footing and fell directly off Qi Lian’s shoulder.

“You… you mean?”

“I like Brother,” Qi Lian’s words were unambiguous.
