The sound came from far to near, like a tidal wave, and even the slight vibrations traveling through the ground could be felt underfoot.

Fang Qingyu abruptly looked up.

That's the direction of... Old Port District C7 Dock!?

"No time left." Fang Qingyu made a quick decision, stuffed the nameplate into his pocket, and scanned the unconscious captive. "Take him, let's go."

Qin Hui didn't say a word, slinging the limp Modified Martial Artist over his shoulder as if he were carrying a sack.

Old Qiao, Qi Hao, and Lv Chen immediately closed in around Jiang Wei, protecting her in the center.

Fang Qingyu charged ahead, his shadowy figure transformed yet again into a streak of light tearing through the ruins, sprinting towards the direction of C7 Dock, heading straight into the ever-closer horrifying sound wave.

The squad members followed closely, leaping and running between the broken walls, pushing their Speed to the limit.

The captive jostled on the shoulder seemed to awaken from the violent motion and fear.

He let out a painful groan.

Upon waking up, he found himself being carried by a man with a fierce aura.

Around him was the end-times scene retreating rapidly, with hair-raising screeches from far away...

He instinctively bit down on the poison pouch in his back molars, only to find nothing.

"Let... let me go!"

He started to struggle, his voice trembling with fear.

"Shut up! If you want to live, stay quiet!" Qin Hui growled low, squeezing his arm tighter, causing the captive to choke.

Fang Qingyu didn't look back, his cold voice like cold iron striking: "If you wish to live, answer the questions. Who are you people? What are you doing here?"

The captive was intimidated by Fang Qingyu's utterly emotionless voice and felt the steel-like Power of the man carrying him, along with the approaching threat of death...

Suicide was already a luxury; his mental defenses collapsed instantly.

"I... I'll talk! I'll talk!" he shouted with a sobbing tone, "We're from Creation Technology Company, an outer operation team, codenamed 'Poisonous Snake'!"

"Creation Technology? What do you do?" Fang Qingyu continued questioning, without slowing down.

"I... I don't know! I really don't know!" The captive was so scared he was incoherent, "We're just the lowest level 'Cleaners' and 'Gathering Team,' we do whatever we're told, this time... the mission was to cooperate with a research team, to find a... a special Life Ghost!"

"Special Life Ghost? What kind?" Fang Qingyu's eyes slightly narrowed.

Back then Lin Kang suddenly expanded an ultra-large Force Field, probably because he encountered an unstoppable or extremely dangerous Life Ghost.

"Never seen it! Really never seen it!" The captive shook his head desperately, his face full of fear, "The researchers were all mysterious, only said the thing was very dangerous, very special, was the reason for the Force Field outbreak, we're only responsible for outer Guard and... collecting some Low Tier Life Ghost samples!"

He took a breath, his voice tinged with the terror of surviving a disaster: "Initially, everything was fine, then that ultra-large Force Field suddenly opened! Covered us all, the research team looked like they were prepared in advance, ran into the depths with their equipment, left us outer members behind... Later..."

The captive's face showed an expression of jealousy and fear, as if recalling a nightmare: "That woman... that terrifying woman appeared! She was wearing black combat gear, like a ghost, started killing us as soon as she saw us! Dozens of our brothers... were hunted down and killed by her, chased from the West District to this side... only the four of us were left, we finally managed to escape her, thinking to grab something of value and leave... but then we encountered you..."

His voice was filled with despair and regret.

He thought he had come across easy prey, only to kick an iron plate more terrifying than that woman.

"Woman?"

Fang Qingyu frowned slightly.

A woman who could, in this environment, single-handedly hunt down dozens of Creation Technology's Modified Martial Artists!?

There aren't many like that in the bureau...
