Taming beasts is not as good as taming yourself

Sensing the powerful mental energy that Zhou Shanhai suddenly unleashed, Wu Xiao was secretly shocked. This high-level beast tamer's mental energy was so strong that he felt his own mental energy was on a completely different level.

Of course, Wu Xiao quickly composed himself amidst his surprise, glancing at the girl who was slowly getting up. From Zhou Shanhai's reaction, Wu Xiao knew that things were probably heading in a troublesome direction.

Under Wu Xiao's gaze, the girl in the cell turned around mechanically. Then, a beautiful face covered in tears came into view. It was easy to see that the girl must have been very scared and had been crying for a long time.

However, the girl's face no longer showed fear; instead, it was empty and devoid of emotion, especially her eyes, which were filled with a deathly indifference.

"Squeak!"

Having apparently noticed Wu Xiao and Zhou Shanhai's presence, the girl's emotionless eyes swept over them. Instantly, the mental energy shield released by Zhou Shanhai emitted a teeth-grinding grinding sound. The sound wasn't heard through their ears, but rather rang directly in their minds.

"This is troublesome!"

Seeing the girl's condition, Zhou Shanhai felt a great headache. The girl's consciousness had fallen into chaos, or rather, she was on the verge of collapse.

If it's not dealt with quickly, the girl's consciousness will completely dissipate, and the trace of power she merged with will go berserk. At that point, Zhou Shanhai will have no choice but to kill her.

The problem is that Zhou Shanhai doesn't have a pet with a contracted spirit, nor does he have any beast taming skills related to cultivation, so he really doesn't have any effective means to deal with this situation.

As for directly suppressing her by relying on the powerful mental strength of a high-level beast tamer, that would be even more ineffective. The girl's condition was already extremely dangerous, and using such brutal methods would only cause her consciousness to collapse even faster.

But simply leaving it alone is not an option either. Every second of delay increases the risk of the girl losing consciousness. Therefore, it is too late to go to the police station for help now.

Just as Zhou Shanhai felt the situation was becoming extremely difficult, Wu Xiao walked past him and headed towards the prison.

"Stop!"

Upon seeing Wu Xiao suddenly emerge, Zhou Shanhai quickly stopped him. He was able to stand here and ponder the problem because the barrier formed by his powerful mental energy blocked the mental fluctuations emanating from the girl, which contained the aura of a great being.

If it were anyone else, they would be completely overwhelmed by this aura, losing their composure and possibly falling into a coma, or suffering severe mental trauma.

Mental strength is the core power of a beast tamer; once it is injured, the path forward is cut off.

"Captain Zhou, let me give it a try."

Wu Xiao turned around. The situation was extremely critical. If it wasn't dealt with quickly, the girl would never come back.

"you?"

Upon hearing Wu Xiao's words, Zhou Shanhai was about to say something when his eyes widened suddenly. He saw that Wu Xiao was standing in front of the girl without any defense. At this moment, the two were only separated by a cage, which was an ordinary cage.

Wu Xiao's approach caused the girl's empty gaze to shift from Zhou Shanhai and then focus on Wu Xiao. Immediately, Wu Xiao felt that familiar feeling.

"However, it's still a bit lacking."

Compared to facing the lava giant from his memories, the aura emanating from the girl before him was far inferior. However, using the aura emanating from this girl to begin the visualization technique for the lava giant might be a good approach.

Shaking his head, Wu Xiao dismissed the strange thought that suddenly popped into his mind. Then, he stretched out a finger and quickly pointed at the girl a few times.

Wu Xiao naturally didn't have a way to stabilize mental energy, so he chose to knock the person down directly. It was like a computer that had been infected with a virus. Wu Xiao didn't know how to remove the virus, but he could unplug the computer and send it to an expert who was good at removing viruses.

Of course, unplugging the plug isn't done randomly; it requires skill. Wu Xiao's skill is called acupressure.

In those few moves, Wu Xiao sealed several acupoints on the girl, directly severing the connection between her consciousness and body. Of course, this was only an emergency measure; to completely resolve the issue, he would naturally need to consult an expert.

"Done!"

Wu Xiao tore down the cell door, carried the unconscious girl out, and handed her to Zhou Shanhai. Naturally, it was up to Zhou Shanhai, the captain, to handle the matter of hiring experts.

"what!"

Zhou Shanhai stared at Wu Xiao with disbelief. Wu Xiao's actions just now were truly astonishing. Putting aside how Wu Xiao withstood that terrifying aura, the way he subdued the out-of-control girl with just a few taps on her body was amazing enough.

After a moment of surprise, Zhou Shanhai quickly regained his composure. He had more important things to do now. "Leave the rest to me. Remember to keep this a secret." Zhou Shanhai took off his clothes and covered the girl with them. Obviously, the girl's information could not be revealed.

With that, Zhou Shanhai carried the girl and quickly left the basement. Then, a wolf howl was heard outside the cave, and Zhou Shanhai's presence quickly faded away.

"Beep beep!"

Not long after Zhou Shanhai left, Wu Xiao's encyclopedia sounded. After glancing at the information on the encyclopedia, Wu Xiao walked out of the cave and saw Zhang Li, who looked somewhat tired. It was clear that the battle with the Dream Mushroom had also taken its toll on Zhang Li.

"Mission complete, time to head back."

Zhang Li sized up Wu Xiao as if he were just meeting him. There was no way around it; Wu Xiao's combat prowess was truly terrifying. After all, what normal person could possibly take on a level 29 elite pet head-on?

"good!"

Wu Xiao nodded. At this moment, he also felt a deep weariness, especially in his legs, which were stinging in waves. This was the price of using the Great Sun Divine Sense twice in a row.

Following Zhang Li out of Block 13, the two walked past squads of security guards. The number of guards clearly exceeded the normal scope of a cleanup operation.

"Isn't that strange?"

As if sensing Wu Xiao's confusion, Zhang Li spoke up, "Because the Public Security Bureau is preparing to clean up this area 13 this time, regardless of whether the gangs in Block 13 are aware of it or colluding with the Descent Society, this matter will absolutely not be let off easily."

"Don't you think that if the local gangs are unaware of this, this action would be a false accusation against them?" Zhang Li asked Wu Xiao.

"No, those people were never good people to begin with. They dared to spread the bacteria powder beyond Block 13, which already broke the tacit understanding they had with the police department. So, they deserved to suffer the same fate." Wu Xiao shook his head.

The Sheriff's Department's bottom line for the 13th district is that all crime must be confined to the 13th district. If local gangs dare to extend their reach into the 13th district, the Sheriff's Department will not hold back.

Even without the incident involving the Descent Society, once Wu Xiao and his group have investigated and found out that the mushroom powder was related to the local gangs, the Public Security Bureau will still take action to punish them.

Unfortunately, this mushroom powder incident involved the Advent Society, so the Sheriff's Office's punishment turned into a heavy blow. This time, District 13 should be able to remain peaceful for a long time.
