Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

"What's the situation over there now?"

Upon hearing Yu Ji's words, He Li pressed for an answer.

Yu Ji shook his head slightly upon hearing this.

"It's barely under control, but it's still not good."

After a pause, Yu Ji continued, "The report from Lengchuan said that a strange creature suddenly appeared on their side not long ago. That thing had ten heads and was extremely terrifying."

"Martial artists at the Third Opening Realm and the Profound Knowledge Realm couldn't even get close before being instantly killed by that monster."

"District-level investigators went to provide support."

"But for now, we can only barely contain it..."

"Also, Lin Fan and the others are helping out."

Lin Fan? He actually went?

As He Li was pondering, he heard Jiang Han purse her lips and say, "It seems your plan is useless."

"You guys wanted me to help you tell him that the Buddha statue was something the Dragon Worship Society deliberately created to attract attention, hoping to lure him to Lecheng to investigate the Buddha statue..."

She was interrupted by Yu Ji before she could finish speaking.

"Lure him here? You're overthinking it!"

Yu Ji's eyes were full of sarcasm: "We know better than you that Lin Fan definitely won't come to Lecheng."

"Hmm? Then... then you still want me to..."

Jiang Han was somewhat bewildered upon hearing this.

He Li smiled and replied, "I asked you to notify them because I figured if Lin Fan wasn't stupid, he would definitely realize that the giant Buddha in Lecheng was just a distraction..."

"The Dragon Lord is currently active in other places; we can find clues by investigating carefully."

At this point, Jiang Hanquan understood.

Her face looked a little pale.

"So, you all guessed that the Dragon Lord might take the opportunity to cause trouble in other cities..."

"But we couldn't be sure he wasn't in Lecheng. Considering we couldn't be in two places at once, we decided to stay in Lecheng to investigate and leave the other places to Lin Fan..."

"You want to use Lin Fan to help you find clues?"

"You all expected this..."

"The special affairs bureaus in other cities are somewhat perfunctory and unreliable, but Lin Fan's goal is the Dragon Lord, so he must be more attentive than the local special affairs bureaus to do this, right?"

They tricked He Li and his gang...

She herself is unaware of the problem.

It would be strange if Jiang Han felt comfortable.

He Li didn't hide anything when he heard this.

"Pretty much!" He nodded with a smile. "You were able to use the information I gathered to find the Dragon Lord, so it's perfectly reasonable for me to use you in return, isn't it?"

At this point, he shrugged: "But we didn't anticipate what happened with Kureiko later..."

"Stop talking, look ahead!"

Before He Li could finish speaking, Yu Ji tugged at his clothes with her small hand, interrupting him. He looked up and followed the direction Yu Ji was pointing towards Lengchuan...

Boom!!!

With a dull thud, in the distance, in the still-recovering central area of ​​Ryokawa City, which was devastated by the earthquake three years ago, a creature resembling a dragon was going berserk.

It was bronze in color, had ten heads, and was over two hundred meters long.

This guy swept his tail across...

The houses collapsed instantly, and the ground cracked open.

The vehicle was completely flattened.

It opened its mouth, spewing forth flames that burned the earth.

It spews water from one end, and the water flows like a torrent.

Its ten eyes emitted golden light, and with the power of its spiritual energy, it uprooted the building entirely...

The soil seemed to be manipulated by it, condensing into a cone shape in the air and stabbing hard into the distance. Then, the huge soil cone shattered at the same time as the invisible barrier, as if it had hit an air wall.

That "invisible wall" must be the investigator's supernatural ability.

Someone is trying to stop it.

But... it's impossible to stop it.

This guy is too fierce.

The surrounding area was utterly destroyed, and the bodies of several investigators could still be vaguely seen.

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, the destructive roar it generated was deafening.

Strangely, a young man was embedded at the top of the middle head of the ten-headed dragon, and the young man's body below the abdomen had completely merged with the ten-headed dragon's body.

"This is... the Ten-Horned Dragon?"

He Li stared intently at the bronze dragon.

Putting everything else aside, the sheer size of this thing alone is enough to create a sense of oppression.

Add to that its various abilities like breathing fire and water, using telekinesis, and controlling the earth, and this thing's strength far surpasses all the monsters He Li has ever encountered.

This formidable enemy excited He Li.

He was already looking forward to the benefits he would gain after devouring the ten-horned dragon.

"This thing possesses quite a few abilities."

"Eating it will counteract countless monsters."

He was somewhat eager to try.

Beside him, Yu Ji and Jiang Han stared at the ten-horned dragon in the distance with some fear. At the same time, Yu Ji spoke up: "I just carefully read the report from the Lingchuan Special Bureau."

"The one on the head of the Ten-Horned Dragon has been confirmed by the Lingchuan Special Bureau to be a local of Shuzhou."

"His name is Shifang, an orphan."

"If nothing unexpected happens, he should be the Dragon Lord."

"But there isn't much information about him..."

He Li waved his hand upon hearing this.

"His condition needs no further explanation!" As he spoke, he used his spiritual sense to place Yu Ji and Jiang Han on the ground and said, "Now I'll deal with that dragon first, then we can talk about the rest."

"I think the others are about to give up."

"This guy is so strong, if it were to break into other districts, the consequences would be unimaginable."

After saying that, he rushed towards the city center.

Jiang Han's expression changed slightly upon seeing this.

They still dare to charge straight in?

Is he blind? Didn't he see that the ten-horned dragon could breathe fire and water, manipulate the earth, and even possess telekinetic powers that made it almost invincible?

Why did they rush up there? Why did the other 90% of the investigators stay far away and dare not go up?

Isn't it because they know that they can't even get close to such beings, or they'll be turned into mincemeat? What kind of logic is that? Even the most arrogant person has a limit, right?

Is he really that fearless?

Jiang Han couldn't help but look at Yu Ji.

"Aren't you going to try to persuade him?"

"That ten-horned dragon is so strong..."

Before she could finish speaking, Yu Ji shook her head and interrupted, "It's no use me trying to persuade him."

"Not to mention his confidence in himself, and I also believe he can defeat the Ten-Horned Dragon, the main thing is... he's obsessed with monsters, especially powerful ones."

"Besides, he wasn't wrong."

"Look at those investigators..."

She pointed to a spot not far away.

The local investigators from Ryokawa, as well as investigators from other places, stood at a distance.

"They have limited capabilities and can't offer much help, and the investigators who participated in the battle seem to be reaching their limit. At this point, if he has the ability to step in, should he just let that dragon run rampant?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Han was about to say something.

But suddenly a rebuke came from the sky...

"Halt! No passage ahead!"

Huh? Upon hearing the sound, Jiang Han and Yu Ji looked up at the same time and saw He Li, who was about to deal with the ten-horned dragon in mid-air, being intercepted by three arrogant investigators.

"Shanghai investigators..." Jiang Han's eyes flickered as she noticed the pattern on their chest badges.

Meanwhile, in the air, He Li frowned...

"I'm going to help deal with the Ten-Horned Dragon."

He began to speak, and then started to move forward.

But to my surprise, I was stopped again.

"Solve the Ten-Horned Dragon? We don't need you!" The lead investigator stared coldly at He Li: "The Ten-Horned Dragon matter will be handled by our Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau."

"It will also be contained by our Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau, your local Special Affairs Bureau investigators..."

"Just watch from the sidelines."

"Anyway, you guys aren't that capable."

"Going there would be a waste of time!"

Ok? ? ?

Upon hearing this, He Li's gaze grew cold.

He pointed to the other investigators below: "So, they were also stopped by you?"

He had just wondered why there seemed to be only a few investigators dealing with the Ten-Horned Dragon, while most of the other investigators stood at a distance and watched without offering any help.

He thought it was the investigators who were afraid.

But it seems that's not the case now.

Those investigators may be weak, or even timid, but it's impossible for all of them to be like that.

Now He Li understands...

It turned out they were stopped.

Sure enough, He Li asked the question.

The three investigators from Shanghai nodded slightly.

"That's right, we were the ones who stopped them."

"You'll only get in the way. Just stay here and wait for our Shanghai investigators to complete the containment. You can handle the cleanup..."

As he said this, the Shanghai investigator's voice grew softer and softer.

Because he suddenly realized.

The investigator in front of me seems to be...

It looks somewhat familiar!
