"Miss Tangyue is right. A person like him isn't worthy of being a Councilman. How dare he dream of being promoted to a higher position? If we pretend that nothing happened, wouldn't we be putting more cities and districts in danger like what happened in Wanggui Town? "Jiang Shaoxu said.
"Luo Mian kept making mistakes in the past, torturing so many people in Hangzhou. Don't you think we are going to turn a blind eye to it? Just ask Zhu Qi to kill us all, and the island will be half-sealed. Just ask your Head of the Enforcement Union to arrest Mubai and Mofan and execute them one by one. Isn't that a lot simpler? No one will know what happened in the past, and they won't interfere with Councilman Nan's election!" Tangyue snapped.
"Wow, Miss Tangyue, don't be so hot-tempered. We can solve the problem, but we won't get anything if they're dead. Look, we still have a little Ling Ling in our group. Ling Ling is so adorable and naive, and she's still so young. Why do you keep talking about dying? We should be stronger and more forgiving for her sake," Zhao Manyan advised.
"Xiao Zhao is right, Xiao Zhao is right. It's not that bad … let's just treat it as a vacation and relax," Wu Jiao agreed.
"Speaking of which, did you hear anything strange?" Chen Shuo suddenly looked around cautiously.
"Isn't it just those annoying bird cries?" Wu Jiao said.
"Aren't the cries supposed to be coming from outside? Why do I feel like they're coming from inside? Why are they echoing?" an enforcer asked.
As soon as he said this, everyone quieted down and looked around.
The quarantine building was like a huge stadium. The places without lights were pitch-black. There were eight tunnels leading to the building they were in. Some of them were connected to the buildings of other domesticated animals, while others were connected to the breeding grounds in the wild. Some of the tunnels extended a great distance, some even going over a mountain. However, the places that were connected to the outside world were protected by nets made of gravel. The Manta Ray Evil Birds had no chance of entering the place.
"Niu niu niu niu niu ~!!!"
Dull and hurried knocks came from the third and seventh corridors. Chen Shuo was quite familiar with the facilities here. He hurriedly went to switch on the power switch and lit up the lights in the corridors. When they came in earlier, they had already switched on the generator.
The incandescent lamps lit up in rows. Suddenly, large clumps of things blocked the few large passageways. It was as if black sewage was pouring into the main area of the isolated building. For a moment, under the rhombus roof, countless shadows of bats scurried about. Their sharp eyes stared at the people without turning.
"How did these guys get in here?!" Chen Shuo's face was full of shock.
Chen Shuo immediately sided with Zhu Qi and the others when they showed up. He even checked the safety of the building to make sure the Manta Ray Evil Birds would not be able to sneak through the metal mesh. He even turned on the generator so the building would be as comfortable as a modern house, apart from the Wi-Fi! However, the Manta Ray Evil Birds had already broken into the building before the first day was over!
"Chen Shuo, you're still as useless as before. Why aren't you checking the entrances now? Lock the building before more of these things come in!" Wu Jiao snarled.
"I can't possibly do it alone," Chen Shuo said.
"You three, follow him!" Wu Jiao pointed at three enforcers and asked them to check the entrances with Wu Jiao.
The rest of the enforcers had already used their spells to eliminate the Manta Ray Evil Birds that had snuck into the building. The place was spacious, so it did not affect the Manta Ray Evil Birds' ability to fight. However, Wu Jiao kept reminding the enforcers and enforcers not to use any destructive spells, just in case they destroyed the building.
The building was sturdy and had been mixed with a lot of metal mesh, but it did not necessarily mean it was indestructible!
"Brother Wu Jiao, it's going to be troublesome for you and your men to fend off so many stinky bats. Hurry up and remove the seals so we can lend you a hand. Isn't it the start of our friendly relationship?" Zhao Manyan said to Wu Jiao.
Wu Jiao glanced at Zhao Manyan disdainfully, as if to say, 'Do you think I'm an idiot?'
"Keep an eye on them, don't let anything happen to them," Wu Jiao said to Li Dong.
"Of course I'll keep an eye on them, but if there are too many of them, it's not my fault if someone gets snatched away by accident," Li Dong glanced at Ling Ling. It was obvious what he was trying to say.
"Li Dong, if you dare do that, even if you hide in the Dali Clan, Mofan will drag you out and burn you alive in front of everyone!" Tangyue said coldly.
Li Dong harrumphed coldly, but he did not respond.
He had heard about Mofan's infamous reputation. He might be disdainful on the surface, but he was actually quite intimidated by the man. If Mofan really dared to do something like that, even the people of the Mu Clan would not be able to protect him.
"Mofan won't be needed. Your grandfather used to be an old Clergyman of the Holy Judgment Court. If he finds out, he's going to toss the entire Dali Clan into the sea to feed the fish," Jiang Shaoxu added in a timely manner.
Li Dong's back was covered in cold sweat after hearing the words.
Apart from Zhao Xiaotian, the Dali Clan could not afford to offend any of these people. As such, they could not afford to cross the line if they could not guarantee their safety. The consequences would be unimaginable. It was the reason why Wu Jiao had been trying to persuade Zhu Qi, who had lost his son.
"Assistant Li, I think I saw someone barging in here. I think it's the Ice Mage that ran away from the North Mountain," an Enforcer hurried over and said.
"Humph, it must be Mubai then. He's been quite famous lately!" Li Dong chuckled coldly.
Zhu Qi would take down Mofan, and Li Dong would take out Mubai. They would be in charge here!
"What do you think?" Li Dong glanced at Wu Jiao.
"Take them down at all costs. It'll be easier to deal with them once we have the upper hand." Wu Jiao was a smart man. He knew it was more important to take down the Dali Clan. It would be up to them to decide if they were going to settle the matter peacefully or violently!
Li Dong nodded. He did not like to be in a passive position, either. These people might have special identities, so they were basically untouchable in their territory. However, if these people insisted on forcing them into a dead end, it was not their fault. Even a dog would jump over a wall when it was desperate. If they did not want them to have an easy time … they were the dogs!
