Hen stood up. This was clearly an order from the higher-ups; Hen had read the report.
The warehouse was located in a very remote area, almost a no-man's-land, which, coupled with the strange nature of the mission, made the situation even more complicated.
Those old fogies clearly want Alicia to stay away from headquarters for a while.
Dr. Mebius is temporarily unable to show his face, and Alicia is about to be sent away again.
Hen knew with his own eyes that those good-for-nothings were going to cause them trouble again, and just thinking about it made him feel like a few more strands of his hair had turned white.
After tidying up the records, Hen got up, opened the door to the interrogation room, and gestured for Alicia to enter.
As Ellie left, Hen, with a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, tossed a note and a key into Ellie's pocket.
Then Hen and Kevin left together.
Alicia retrieved the key and note only after leaving the headquarters of the Firemoth.
The key had the Spiral Workshop logo printed on the end, while the note only had an address written on it.
221 Huanghun Street.

I'm recommending a book by a friend in our group! It's about chat groups; those interested can check it out!
(Various anime/Harem, not harem/Original pairing not recommended)
I've time-traveled! Good news, there's a chat group that I can use as a cheat.
Bad news, the chat group arrived a little late.
"I am the Undead of Destiny, the Burning Despair, the incarnation of the Lords of Cinder, the Moon Demon, the First Hunter, the Last Dragonborn, the Demon Champion, the Epic War Criminal, the Will of Civilization, the Strongest Duelist, the Living Yama of Night City, the Nephalem, the Sword Saint of Ashina, the King of Elden, the Master Assassin, the Leader of the Phantom Thieves, the Outlaw, the Legendary Pilot, the Gwent Master, the White Wind of the New World, the Azure Star that Guides the Way Forward, and most importantly, the God of the Gaming World..."
"Okay, now I'm just a despicable outsider trying to turn over a new leaf (in physics), so can anyone tell me why my group members are either in a revival match or not far from their demise?"
New weapon acquired in Chapter 4 (1/?)
Huanghun Street has always been known for its talented people and beautiful scenery.
Due to its unique location, this area is a notorious no-man's-land, and many criminals hide here.
However, thanks to the checks and balances among various local factions, basic order has been maintained.
But to say that this place is safe is pure nonsense.
The shops along the roadside had weapons openly displayed next to their glass cases, which gave you an idea of how chaotic the place was.
Fortunately, Zhou Si and Mebius both have fair skin.
However, this also brought them some trouble. After all, it was impossible for two good-looking and well-dressed strangers to come to Twilight Street without attracting attention.
The two had barely stepped into Twilight Street when they discovered they were being followed.
However, these people were not fools; they would not act rashly before figuring out Zhou Si and his group's background.
"Ignore them and go find the guide that Virvi has assigned to us."
Mebius had little interest in the local factional infighting, and she wouldn't bother with such trivial matters if they behaved themselves.
If they don't understand, Mebius can only wish them good luck.
"It should be right here."
Mebius glanced at the address in his hand, then at the dilapidated alley in front of him, and his brows furrowed.
Is this the kind of place that the guide Vilvi mentioned lives in?
It was getting late, and the alley was pitch black, but Zhou Si could still clearly sense that many creatures were approaching them.
meow~
With a meow, a dozen cats emerged from the shadows and surrounded Zhou Si and Mebius.
"can?"
And leading them was a brownish-yellow clouded cat that was somewhat overfed.
The moment Zhou Si saw it, he knew who the guide arranged by Vilvi was.
The cat named Canned Food tilted its head and looked at the human male in front of it with a curious expression, wondering why he knew its name.
But the natural sense of closeness he exuded made Guantou unable to resist moving closer and rubbing against Zhou Si's palm.
When the canneries saw that their boss had moved, they also gathered around Zhou Si.
Zhou Si took some cat food from the Hunter's Book and distributed it to the little guys. Seeing them reminded Zhou Si of his own Palico.
I wonder if his new equipment is finished yet. Zhou Si felt quite embarrassed because he didn't bring it on the previous two missions for various reasons.
Now's the perfect time to let Bai translate for us and see if it can understand what the cats are saying.
Bai: Boss, you finally remembered me QAQ
"Boss, what's up, meow?"
Bai, dressed in a laboratory hazmat suit, emerged from the Hunter's Book and removed his gas mask after seeing Zhou Si.
"What are you doing?"
"Miss Melo asked me to help out with a little something, meow."
"Oh right, the Bloodfoul Vaal Hazak's equipment is ready, meow! It's just..."
Bai's expression became excited, but then his tone weakened. Zhou Si, on the other hand, was used to it. She just sighed softly and resignedly asked.
"What kind of weapon is it this time?"
"...They are twin katana."
After Bai finished speaking, he took out a pair of strangely designed swords, one white and one red.
The blades are made entirely from the bones of the Bloodfog Vaal Hazak. The two blades are almost identical in shape, but the white one is covered with a kind of mycelium-like substance, while the red one is covered with red clots that look like flowing blood.
Each of the two swords has a closed eye on its gauntlet.
It must be said that, judging from their appearance alone, these two swords do look rather strange.
But what's even stranger is the effect of these two swords.
The white weapon leaves spores on the prey's wounds. These spores are exactly the same as those scattered by the Blood Mist Vaal Hazak, which can make the prey lose its mind and absorb their life force to strengthen itself.
The red one can accumulate an abnormal state that Zhou Si named "Entering Dreams." When this abnormal state exceeds a certain range, Zhou Si can pull it into Ya Nan's dream.
Once in the dream world, Zhou Si, who possesses the authority of a superior, will show the enemy what Miyazaki's malice is all about.
However, let's put these two swords away for now, since it's not really appropriate to leave them out like this, as they might scare people.
"Little White, try to understand what the can is saying?"
Only then did Bai see the fat cat that Zhou Si was holding in her arms. Its pupils dilated instantly, and an incredulous expression appeared on its cute face.
The boss has a new love interest!!!
"Boss, is it because of this that you forgot about me, meow?"
Bai's tone was tinged with grief and indignation, but Zhou Si simply stroked its ears gently.
"No, I simply forgot."
You might as well say it's because of it, boss.
Bai was speechless. As expected, like master, like master. Zhou Si was also very unreliable in such trivial matters.
Sigh, then I guess I'll have to help out the boss.
After venting her emotions for a while, Bai turned her attention to the canned food.
Looking at the fat cat lying lazily in Zhou Si's arms, Bai thought of his own hard times recently, helping Melo with experiments and negotiating cooperation with Rhodes Island for Zhou Si at the Hunter Guild.
In his spare time, Bai also had to craft new equipment in the Hunter's Book. Suddenly, Bai felt like crying, but when he thought that the hard times were over and that his boss still cared about him, Bai regained his motivation.
Let's see if we can communicate with this fat cat from out of town.
"Meow meow meow?" (What are you, meow?)
"Meow." (Coming to pick someone up, meow.)
The canned food looked curiously at the large creature in front of it. It had never seen another creature of its kind so big before, and its accent was also strange.
"Boss, it said it's here to pick someone up."
After not speaking its native language for a long time, Bai successfully began communicating with Guantou, proving that even cats from another world can communicate in the same language.
Where is your master now?
Bai relayed Zhou Si's words to Guantou. Guantou turned around and only then did it realize that its owner, Padofelis, had not followed them at all.
"Meow?"
Now there was no need for a translator; Zhou Si understood the doubt in the canned food's mouth.
"So you lost your master?"
Zhou Si looked at the canned food that had nodded, and the alley fell silent for a moment.
------------------
Meanwhile, on the other side, Padofilis was fleeing through the forest.
"Canned food, where did you go?!"
Chapter 5 Is this you? (4k)
"We've never heard of encountering such a monster before! Aaaaaaah!"
Sweat dripped down her forehead, and Padofelis turned her head slightly, looking at the monsters chasing after her, and strained her legs to move forward.
She had just witnessed a small tree, as thick as her waist, being sliced in half by the scythe on the tail of the largest monster.
If that were cut on her, it would leave pieces all over the place.
'Canned food, you absolutely have to come and save us!'
Pado prayed silently, while the monsters behind her seemed to have their eyes on her, relentlessly pursuing her.
She managed to keep up with them by using the complex terrain of the forest, but Pado's stamina was clearly not enough to keep her running. She now felt as if her legs were filled with lead.
The monster horde behind them drew ever closer, and Pado's strength began to wane.
"Oops!"
With the sudden loss of strength, Pado felt her feet sink into the ground. She only had time to protect her head before curling up into a ball and rolling several meters away, finally landing in front of a tree.
"Looks like... our good luck has finally run out. At least the canned food isn't here..."
Otherwise, if the canned food got that fat, it would definitely be eaten by these monsters.
As the monster drew ever closer, Pado trembled with fear of death. She wanted to live, but her body was completely paralyzed.
Pado could only resign herself to her fate and slowly close her eyes, awaiting death.
"Meow!"
Just as she closed her eyes, a familiar voice rang out from not far away.
Canned food, it's canned food!
Immediately following was the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground, and the sound of the monster's scythe cutting through the air.
clang--
The scythe did not fall on Paddo. When she opened her eyes, she saw a snow-white cat, as tall as her legs, standing upright and holding an exaggeratedly large shield in front of her.
Pado looked at Bai with tears in her eyes. Could it be that her friendship with her friends had moved the Cat God, and the Cat God's messenger had come to save her?
She'll definitely make extra food for everyone when she gets back!
"Boss, it's Kamaitachi Ryuko."
Bai looked at the group of monsters in front of him and recognized them at a glance.
The Kamaitachiosaurus is a herd of bird dinosaurs that patrols its territory with the Kamaitachiosaurus King, who is the leader. However, the Kamaitachiosaurus King usually only chooses the two strongest members of the herd to accompany it.
Such a large-scale mobilization is not common.
