The three messengers' taut nerves finally got a moment of respite, and they were so excited and relieved that they bowed deeply and said in unison, "Thank you, Leader Zuo Feng! Thank you, Miss Yun! We will return to report immediately!"

Before they finished speaking, the three of them had already rushed out of the conference room like arrows from a bowstring, not even having time to wipe the sweat from their foreheads, turning into three streaks of light that once again streaked across the night sky, speeding towards H City at the fastest possible speed.

They wanted to deliver this good news back as quickly as possible, at the first opportunity.

Inside the conference room, the somber atmosphere did not dissipate with the messengers' departure; instead, it became even more oppressive due to the cold killing intent that gradually emanated from Zuo Feng and Da Bai Tu.

Zuo Feng slowly stood up, his alloy chair making a slight scraping sound behind him.

His gaze was profound, like a miniature galaxy.

His gaze pierced through walls, through the bloody night, as if he had already seen the desperate dark clouds covering H City.

"Nearly a million lives... seven to eight thousand pathogens about to erupt... three nine-striped half-zombie monsters..." Zuo Feng's voice was low, as if he was chewing on the suffocating weight behind each word,

"Wan Youyu... what a 'feast'! Treating a living hell as a dining table, and the flesh and blood of his compatriots as dishes, his appetite is so vast it could swallow the sky."

Da Bai Tu walked to his side, her eyes as sharp as blades, no longer showing any of her previous lazy charm:

"We must completely eradicate him and his half-zombie army from this world before he makes a move on the Giant Tiger Alliance. Once the pathogens erupt on a large scale, or if he successfully infects more experts, the situation will spiral completely out of control, and by then, a complete clear-out will be even more difficult."

"Complete clear-out!"

A cold, extreme arc formed at the corner of Zuo Feng's mouth. There was no warmth in that arc, only an indifference and absolute control, like looking down at ants,

"He and his half-zombie army must die!"

As soon as Zuo Feng finished speaking, the oppressive air in the hall seemed to be instantly ignited by an invisible force, then quickly frozen into an even deeper chill.

He suddenly turned and walked towards the Second Floor of the base, "Let's go, we'll discuss how much force is appropriate to use."

Wan Youyu and his half-zombie army were not worth mentioning in Zuo Feng's eyes, but the difficulty lay in not letting any single one escape. If even one escaped, it could cause a huge storm in the future.

Conscious half-zombies and unconscious zombies were on completely different levels of danger.

In the Second Floor conference room, after learning of Wan Youyu's madness, the girls all showed uncontrollable anger and grief.

Nothing else was needed; the mere fact that nearly a million compatriots' lives were wantonly trampled was enough to ignite their anger to the extreme.

Zuo Feng leaned back on the sofa, closed his eyes in thought for a moment, then slowly spoke:

"Originally, I didn't intend to interfere in H City's internal struggles, but this time, Wan Youyu has touched everyone's bottom line.

We cannot tolerate the existence of such a madman, nor can we allow his crimes to spread to other cities."

He opened his eyes, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, the anger burning in his eyes boiling like lava.

"So, how much force will we use this time to completely eradicate this threat? Given Wan Youyu's half-zombie army and the potential risk of pathogen spread, this hidden danger must be completely eliminated this time."

A cold light burst forth from Da Yuanyuan's gentle eyes. She said softly:

"The little ones have all gone to the central area of H City to collect thirteen-striped zombie crystals. The only forces we can use now are the Mutants, Bi Xiao Ancient Tree, Qing Ying Divine Tree, as well as the Bi Xiao Guardians and Qing Ying Vanguards.

However, the Bi Xiao Ancient Tree and Qing Ying Divine Tree are too massive to be suitable for long-distance travel and reinforcement, so they will remain at the base to guard its safety.

The Mutants, Bi Xiao Guardians, and Qing Ying Vanguards, however, can be dispatched to H City to participate in the encirclement."

Zuo Feng nodded and said:

"Dispatching the Mutants, Bi Xiao Guardians, and Qing Ying Vanguards for reinforcement is acceptable, but Wan Youyu and his half-zombie army are not worth using all of our existing strength."

Da Yuanyuan thought for a moment and said:

"Then let's dispatch half of the Bi Xiao Guardians and Qing Ying Vanguards, 13 Bi Xiao Guardians and 13 Qing Ying Vanguards, which should be enough to deal with Wan Youyu and his half-zombie army and control the entire situation. To be safe, let's also add Kong Ling, Huo Er, Ying Er, and Tu'er. This way, even if Wan Youyu has more schemes and tricks, he won't escape his demise."

Zuo Feng nodded in agreement. In fact, even just one Bi Xiao Guardian or Qing Ying Vanguard could easily crush Wan Youyu's half-zombie army.

But to ensure absolute certainty, and to deter those with ulterior motives, Zuo Feng decided to follow Da Yuanyuan's suggestion, even though it felt somewhat like using a nuclear weapon to swat a mosquito.

But this time, he had to use this action to make a statement: if anyone dared to cross this bottom line in the future, they would first have to weigh whether they could withstand the wrath of Firefly.

Zuo Feng's gaze swept over the faces of the girls one by one; the burning anger and determination in their eyes showed their attitude.

"Alright, in that case, I will take 13 Bi Xiao Guardians, 13 Qing Ying Vanguards, Kong Ling, Huo Er, Ying Er, and Tu'er to reinforce H City later. It's time to show the outside world our strength and determination."

This time, they not only had to annihilate Wan Youyu's half-zombie army but also deter the forces in E City, because E City's experiments were closely related to Wan Youyu's half-human, half-zombie state. Although there was no concrete evidence, Zuo Feng was certain that Wan Youyu's transformation into a half-human, half-zombie must have involved the covert support and experiments of certain forces in E City.

As for which faction in E City supported Wan Youyu, Zuo Feng did not intend to investigate further, at least not for now.

His goal was clear: to use this action to send a signal—any attempt to implement the forbidden half-zombification technology would face Firefly's most severe crackdown.

At this moment, Da Bai Tu suddenly spoke:

"Xiao Nan Ren, since it's about showing off some muscle, then you shouldn't go personally this time. Let me lead the team instead. You are our leader; your personal appearance would seem too solemn and would make people think we are too nervous about this matter. You stay at the base, and I will complete this 'performance' for you."

Zuo Feng pondered for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded in agreement. This trip held no danger, and Da Bai Tu was indeed a good choice to lead.

After some discussion, the action plan was quickly finalized.

Two hours later, Da Bai Tu led 13 Bi Xiao Guardians, 13 Qing Ying Vanguards, Kong Ling, Huo Er, Ying Er, and Tu'er, embarking on their journey to H City.

The night wind howled above the base, as if bidding farewell to this terrifying team.

Da Bai Tu stood at the forefront of the team, dressed in a tight-fitting outfit.

Behind her, thirteen Bi Xiao Guardians and thirteen Qing Ying Vanguards stood in silent solemnity. Their massive bodies cast suffocating shadows in the moonlight, and chilling patterns flowed over their cold wooden shells. Their mere presence exuded a destructive aura that made one's soul tremble.

Kong Ling, Huo Er, Ying Er, and Tu'er hovered nearby, silent yet radiating an even more intense oppressive feeling.

"Depart!" Da Bai Tu leaped onto the shoulder of a Qing Ying Vanguard, her voice clear and cold as ice, yet distinctly piercing through the wind and reaching every unit's ears.

There were no Tu'er-shattering roars, no unnecessary clamor.

The massive bodies of the thirteen Bi Xiao Guardians instantly rose from the ground, tearing through the air with a dull roar.

The thirteen Qing Ying Vanguards, meanwhile, transformed into thirteen deep green streaks of light, silently yet swiftly as lightning, merging into the night sky. Their forms seemed to blend with the shadows, with only occasional flashes of energy revealing their presence.

The four Mutants guarded Da Bai Tu's sides, their figures darting through the night like specters, silent but carrying an irresistible pressure.
