"Emergency rescue, quick!"

Amiya noticed the presence of the sniper and quickly called for a medical operator to come over.

The accompanying medical personnel quickly separated the children surrounding the girl from Carter's side and provided medical treatment to Anssa, who was seriously injured. After examining the injuries, the medical personnel decisively applied expensive emergency treatment medication to Anssa's bleeding penetrating wound and did their best to save her.

"She'll be fine."

Amiya comforted them, pursing her lips and gazing at the children.

The children were trembling, their clothes were tattered, and their bodies were covered in bruises from the violence.

Can you tell me what happened?

Amiya hesitated for a moment. She knew that asking these children now would be cruel, for it would force them to relive past events and cause psychological trauma. But she had to do it; she needed the intelligence, and she couldn't let Rhodes Island's operators be put in unknown danger.

"It was that big brother who saved us..."

One of the children answered quietly.

As they fled, they were caught by the new college students of Lungmen, who then dragged them along the ground. This is how they got their bruises and scratches on their wrists and ankles. But during the dragging, they encountered a mysterious gray-robed man.

The grey-robed man easily knocked down the bad guys with a wave of his hand and patiently asked them what had happened. After learning what had happened, the Sarkaz man told the children to stay with him, claiming that it was no longer safe there.

“When we came back here, there was a group of people dressed in white and wearing masks…” another child began, his ears and tail taut with fear and tension, the bloody image haunting his mind.

Those dressed in white and wearing masks swiftly chopped the freshmen college students of Longmen into mincemeat on the spot.

The wealthy and powerful young master ordered his bodyguards to attack, but faced with these infected individuals in white coats, the bodyguards fought and retreated, eventually abandoning the young master and running away. They were only following these rich people for the money, but what's more important than life?

The young masters, who started out arrogantly shouting about who their fathers were and how powerful their families were, were eventually sliced ​​to pieces by the man in white robes, crying, wailing, cursing, and silently turning into lumps of flesh on the ground.

These infected in white robes originally wanted to take away Darkrope, who was barely clinging to consciousness, but they were stopped by the gray-robed Sarkaz man.

After a brief exchange, the white-robed infected were no match for him and decisively retreated. The Foolish Clan member, who had been feigning death on the ground, tried to escape, but the gray-robed Sarkaz man stomped on him, pinning him halfway into the ground.

Next, Amiya and the others arrived.

"The Integration Movement..."

Amiya murmured after learning what had happened.

Without a doubt, these infected individuals in white coats are definitely part of the Reunion Movement.

After the Chernobog rescue operation and the defense of Lungmen-Lowerhill, Amiya gained a deeper understanding of the Reunion Movement. The Reunion Movement is likely the largest infected organization on Terra, an armed revolutionary group seeking to seize direct power through violence.

I never imagined that the Reunion Movement had infiltrated Lungmen to this extent.

Amiya pondered, the reconnaissance team members still hadn't found any trace of the Reunion Movement members.

Not only that, but something felt quite out of place. Amiya hadn't thought it was that serious before, but now that she thought about it... it was afternoon, and the Lungmen slums should have been quite lively during working hours. Even if some people were using force to disrupt public order, they shouldn't have encountered no one else along the way besides a few infected children.

Where did the rest of the infected people go?

Even excluding the infected, according to the intelligence gathered by Rhodes Island, the majority of people in the Lungmen slums are ordinary residents, criminals, and unidentified vagrants. However, half an hour has passed since Rhodes Island intervened in the slums, and almost everyone they have encountered has been a criminal citizen of Lungmen.

Something's not right. Is there something that's been overlooked?

It always felt like the calm before the storm, with something lurking and stirring in the shadows.

"Amiya."

Razer's voice snapped Amiya out of her thoughts.

Amiya turned around and saw that Razer was carrying a backpack-sized anti-jamming communication device.

Following the Battle of Lungmen-Lofty Helmets, intelligence was provided by Ethan, the Ghost Squad leader who had broken through the crucial defenses of Lofty Helmets—now a new Rhodes Island operator. The Reunion Movement possessed specialized communication jamming equipment and numerous "Ghosts" like Ethan, capable of silently infiltrating enemy lines and causing sabotage using racial traits or stealth devices. The malfunction of the Chernobog communication tower was a testament to the Ghost Squad's skill, successfully intercepting Chernobog's attempt to send a distress signal and buying precious time.

"Amiya, this is the Guard Bureau's communications."

Razer handed the communication terminal to Amiya.

This anti-jamming communication device has only three nodes: one is the Lungmen Guard Bureau, one is the Rhodes Island ship, and the other is Kal'tsit's office.

"Is that Commander Chen?"

"Yes."

Amiya thoughtfully took the terminal and brought it close to her ear.

"I am Amiya, please speak."

"What exactly is Rhodes Island doing?!"

Even through the terminal, Superintendent Chen's voice could be heard as her roaring, revealing intense anger and suspicion.

Amiya frowned slightly. Three days ago, she might have been frightened, but she had grown up now.

"We are doing what is necessary."

"Is attacking the Guard Bureau something you need to do?!"

Superintendent Chen was so angry that she laughed out loud. She probably didn't expect Amiya to answer her like that.

Amiya coldly said, "Slaughtering Oripathy infected people in the Lungmen slums, smashing shops along the way, disrupting public order, and damaging Lungmen's reputation—if this is the work of the Lungmen Guard Bureau, then what's wrong with suppressing villains!"

"Dare to say another word!"

Superintendent Chan's temper flared up. She had been overwhelmed with the infected people these past few days and was already in a bad mood.

Now Rhodes Island dares to slander the Guard Bureau?!

“What harm is there in saying it again!” Amiya snapped. Having witnessed the actions of the new Lungmen students and the Lungmen Guard’s attitude, she harbored no goodwill towards Lungmen whatsoever. “If the Lungmen Guard’s purpose is to condone Lungmen citizens’ armed private forces to hunt down infected in their habitats, then our cooperation ends today. Rhodes Island cannot become an accomplice in the persecution of the lives and property of the infected!”

"What—what are you talking about?!"

Superintendent Chen's anger gradually turned into confusion; she realized that she seemed to be on a different wavelength from the leaders of Rhodes Island.

"Longmen citizens armed private forces? Hunting infected people in the slums? What nonsense! How could such a thing possibly happen!"

"Superintendent Chen, I contacted the Guard Bureau to report this matter ten minutes ago, but your side was extremely perfunctory and didn't take it seriously at all!"

"Heh, how could I not know these things? Wait, this is..." A mechanical voice came from the other end of the communication terminal, and Chen's cursing could be heard from time to time, but it wasn't directed at Amiya. Finally, Chen reconnected the terminal.

"If you're not lying to me, then your call log from ten minutes ago has been erased."

"what?"

On the other end of the communication device, Chen Huijie frowned as she searched through Longmen's database, feeling as if an invisible hand was covering her eyes.

"Let me ask you a question first."

"Please speak," Amiya said calmly.

"Did Rhodes Island launch an armed attack outside Lungmen?"

Amiya answered decisively and immediately: "Absolutely not!"

On the other side of the distance, Chen Huijie pondered for a moment and took a deep breath.

"Report to me your current location and all the intelligence you have."

Chen Huijie suppressed her rage and gritted her teeth.

"We've probably been tricked."

"That's how it happened, Commander Chen."

Amiya reported in detail what she had seen and heard after arriving in the slums, as well as the necessary suppression operations she led with Rhodes Island.

She keenly sensed that this matter was not as simple as she had imagined. How could Rhodes Island launch an attack on the Guard Bureau from outside Lungmen? And how could Commander Chen be completely unaware of what was happening in the slums? Judging from her reaction, her bewilderment and skepticism were not feigned.

"...Okay, I think I understand."

Chen's voice sounded somewhat tired, probably because he was exhausted from sorting out the time, place, and people involved in the incident.

"I will dispatch a large team to the Lungmen slums within twenty minutes to conduct an on-site investigation. You will continue your mission in the slums, searching for unregistered infected individuals. If you encounter any Lungmen citizens, do not take action unless absolutely necessary, except for self-defense. Given your status in Lungmen, even as assistants to the Guard Bureau, you are still in the eye of the storm in terms of public opinion. Let the Guard Bureau handle the Lungmen citizen riots."

Superintendent Chen swiftly executed the order; she was always the quickest thinker in the Guard Bureau. Especially when dealing with infected individuals, she could always come up with unexpected strategies, as if she were observing from the infected's perspective.

"If you encounter any Infected soldiers from the Reunion Movement, remember, capture them alive if possible." Superintendent Chen's tone left no room for argument. After a moment's thought, she offered this explanation: "During the recent night raids on the Reunion Movement, we discovered that the active Originium material you provided to Hoshiguma is most likely a parasite. Once the host dies, the parasite will detach itself and seek its next host. Remember, capture them alive if possible. I don't want a Victorian science fiction story to happen in Lungmen, understand?"

"……understand."

Amiya is fourteen years old, a vibrant young woman, a stage where her imagination is at its most vivid.

She subconsciously connected this incident to the intelligence that Lungmen had provided not long ago: trucks carrying the bodies of Reunion Movement infected people had gone missing, and the drivers' bodies had been discovered... The thought was terrifying. If this was allowed to continue, Lungmen would lose its title as the Pearl of Terra and become a forbidden zone.

Just like the upper town of Chernobog that Amiya once looked down from the Bad Guy, it was like a living hell, the whole city turned into a nest of flesh and blood.

Chen Huijie thought for a moment, then added, "One last thing: when you're searching for unregistered infected individuals, focus on finding a short-haired Ursus girl, about 1.45 meters tall. Once you find an infected person with these characteristics, immediately hand them over to the Guard Bureau."

"Commander Chen...can I confirm the validity of the order you just issued?"

"Truly reliable, to be executed immediately."

The communication was abruptly ended as soon as Superintendent Chen finished speaking.

In the distant Lungmen Outer Ring District 11, the temporary command center of the Causeway Bay Port Area Guard Bureau.

Chen Huijie put down the communication device in her hand, drew the longsword issued by the Guard Bureau with lightning speed, and slashed at the empty space behind her.

The afterimages of the sword flashed and overlapped along the trajectory of the slash, accompanied by a sharp explosion, and blood splattered everywhere. The severed section of the enemy's neck was clearly visible, and red liquid gushed high from the wound due to the circulation of blood pressure, staining the temporary command room of the near-guard bureau a striking color.

The sophisticated full-coverage helmet shell displayed a jumbled double image as it tumbled to the ground, encasing the heavy head.

The assassin, his body no longer concealed by camouflage, swayed for two seconds before collapsing heavily to the ground.

Chen Huijie raised his sword and surveyed his surroundings. After confirming there were no enemies, he sheathed his sword. Hearing the unusual noises coming from the temporary command room, the guards from the Imperial Guard stationed outside the door immediately called out to inquire. Only after receiving permission from Commander Chen did they enter the command room.

When they saw the corpse lying on the ground, their expressions changed drastically.

"I failed in my duty to protect you; please punish me, sir!"

The guards bowed their heads deeply. How could they have allowed the enemy to brazenly barge into the command room! What utter dereliction of duty! If it weren't Commander Chen sitting in the command room, the current commander would probably have been eliminated by the decapitation operation, while they would still be standing outside the door as if nothing had happened.

"After this is over, everyone will run 100 laps around the track, and our physical training will be tripled," Superintendent Chen said calmly, waving his hand. "Clean this place up, and notify the fourth and fifth squads. Within the Lungmen outer ring area, launch a full-scale counterattack against those attackers who claim to be from Rhodes Island. Capture them alive if possible, but prioritize the safety of our personnel. If necessary, the use of uncontrolled weapons is permitted."

Chen thought for a moment and repeated, "Remember, this only applies to the outer ring area of ​​Longmen. Don't get the wrong person."

"Yes!"

The guards saluted in response.

After the guards dragged the concealed assassin away and cordoned off the bloodstains that had splattered everywhere,

With no one around, Superintendent Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Leaning back against the command desk, she rubbed her furrowed brows. As a superior, she couldn't show weakness in front of her subordinates, but she felt exhausted. What troubled her wasn't just the sneak attack.

Whether it's the rioters, composed of Lungmen citizens, breaking Lungmen's laws and disrupting order in the slums, or the infected claiming to be from Rhodes Island launching a massive attack on the Guard Bureau in the outer areas of Lungmen, or the emergence of an important figure who has escaped the Guard Bureau's control... none of these things combined can compare to the fact that Rhodes Island's leader, Amiya, had her phone intercepted, monitored, and even her records erased.

Unless a national-level power takes action against them, the Guard Bureau's superior electronic systems could not have been breached so easily.

The most likely explanation is... there's a mole within the Guard Bureau.

What truly frustrated Chen Huijie was that at least ten suspicious individuals suddenly came to mind.

Is the Guard Bureau's regulation system some kind of winery run by the production crew next door?

Besides troublemakers, there are also traitors. How can we fight them?

"Sigh, never mind, let's just clean the house..."

Chen stood up, hung the scabbard of Chixiao on his waist, and walked outside.

"I'll treat you to another meal."

------

Longmen, slums.

"Commander Chen is tall, Commander Chen is tough, Commander Chen is both tall and tough."

Franka stuck out her tongue, which showed what impression Superintendent Chen left on her.

He is cunning, has a tough style, a terrible temper, and a very irritable heart.

"At least she was able to make a calm judgment and didn't just tell us to surrender to the Guard Bureau. If she had, we would probably have had to be prepared to be hostile to a city... or even a country." Thor put away his communication equipment, and a bluish-white current emanated from his horns, replenishing the power to his mobile devices.
