Su Hao remembered very clearly the turmoil in Temple Forest City four years ago, the death of the Speed Demon Flywheel, and it was definitely closely related to this person named An, very likely the mastermind.

The specifics of it, Su Hao didnt know, and he didnt need to know. He only knew that this An was a dangerous individual.

Back then, the other party left Temple Forest City after obtaining the flesh and blood, and Su Hao didnt pay much attention to it. But he didnt expect them to return.

What are they coming back for this time? Do they want to cause trouble again? Su Haos brow furrowed gradually.

Su Haos first reaction was to have Yashans Temple Forest Association monitor them. If there were any unusual activities, they would deal with them immediately.

However, thinking about the strength of these four individuals and the formidable fourth-level Speed Demon among them, sending people to monitor them could lead to casualties, which was not worth it.

After thinking for a moment, Su Hao immediately returned to find Yashan and said, Yashan, there are four dangerous individuals in the city who are related to the chaos four years ago, and I dont know what they intend to do. So, I need you to send Hiding Beast Meng Chuan to secretly investigate their intentions underground. But remember, the other party may also have a third-level Hiding Beast, so be cautious and dont get too close. The goal is to listen to what the other party is saying.

The Hiding Beast is a third-level Mutant from the Nightwalker sequence with abilities such as Silent Flight, Sound Wave Perception, Life Detection, Phase through Walls and Ground, Eagle Claws, and Underground Mud.

Su Haos focus was on the ability of Sound Wave Perception.

Even from a great distance or while underground, it could discern the content of the targets communication.

Exceptionally powerful.

The typical combat method of a Hiding Beast was to first go underground, then launch a surprise attack from below, using Eagle Claws to pull the enemy underground, trapping them in prepared underground mud, and then suffocate them.

Of course, if they also had the runic token Earth Spike that Su Hao had prepared for the Temple Forest Association, they would be an elite assassin.

Pull the target underground, and the moment the enemy reacted, use Earth Spike to kill without a blind spot.

As for why Su Hao didnt personally monitor them, it was mainly because he would attract too much attention. When he walked in the streets, many people would greet him, and it would undoubtedly draw the other partys notice.

Yashan immediately nodded in understanding and asked, Where are those people?

Su Hao said, They are preparing to enter the south of the city! The characteristics of these four individuals are very distinct. Get some paper, and Ill demonstrate my artistic skills to you. After you see it, youll know.

Then, with the help of Little Lights guidance, Su Hao meticulously sketched the portraits of the four individuals, and when he looked at them, they were strikingly accurate.

It was as if he had become a master of drawing, thanks to Little Lights assistance.

Yashan, on the other hand, stared at the portraits in amazement, realizing for the first time that drawings could be so lifelike.

In his impression, facial drawings were merely rough outlines with a few lines to capture the general shape.

Su Hao handed the portraits to Yashan and said, Thats right. Ill tell you their location, and you and Hiding Beast Meng Chuan can go and have a look. Two men and two women, very easy to recognize.

Before Mutants transformed, they couldnt sense each other, and they appeared similar to ordinary people. Only after transforming could Mutants emit their unique aura and be sensed by other Mutants.

So, even if Yashan walked past them, those people wouldnt notice anything amiss.

Yashan took the portraits and said, Understood, Boss Wei!

Su Hao added, If theyve only come back to visit, for family or any other reason, you can ignore them. But if they have the slightest ill intent toward us or Temple Forest City, come back and report to me immediately.

Understood, Boss Wei!

A moment later, Yashan appeared in a small building and found Hiding Beast Meng Chuan.

This small building was located in the center of the city and served as the headquarters of the Temple Forest Association. If someone wanted to find a person, they could come here.

Yashans demeanor was completely different from when he was in front of Su Hao.

He appeared colder and more ruthless.

When people saw Yashan, they couldnt help but shudder because they knew that the tall Yashan before them was an exceptionally brutal guy who would slap people without warning.

In front of Yashan, no one dared to say a word.

Yashan said directly, Meng Chuan, come out with me.

Meng Chuans heart instantly raced. Amid the gloating expressions of the others, he reluctantly followed Yashan.

Meng Chuan was a guy who appeared even shorter compared to other Temple Forest residents and had a slightly hunched back, almost lowering the overall attractiveness of the Temple Forest people.

But Meng Chuans ability was by no means inferior.

He was an excellent tail tracker and could pick up on information, both significant and trivial, within the city.

However, in the presence of Yashan, he had to obediently comply. He enjoyed the atmosphere of the city being divided into factions and believed that his actions were meaningful.

Yashan, as his boss, could make him do anything, even if it meant walking through fire and water.

Yashan took out a bone token and tossed it to Meng Chuan, saying, Meng Chuan, I have a task for you. Once its completed, this Earth Spike token will belong to you.

Meng Chuans eyes widened as he received the token, feeling sudden happiness.

After An and his three subordinates entered Temple Forest City, they were left in awe.

Is this Temple Forest City? Why does it feel different?

The streets were exceptionally clean and tidy, no longer covered in filth and waste as they had been four years ago. The intense urban odor that once pervaded the air had also diminished significantly.

Moreover, there were more people bustling about, and their spirits appeared improved.

Fred, the Third-level Mutant of the Thorned Beast sequence, exclaimed in surprise, Boss An, Temple Forest City has changed a lot in these past few years!

An silently nodded but didnt speak. Since entering the city, he had been meticulously observing the citys details. From these details, he could gauge the citys general condition.

For instance, the immaculate streets suggested the presence of a dominant faction in the city, one that enforced cleanliness. Such a situation wouldnt occur if the city were in a constant state of gang warfare.

Furthermore, the houses he saw appeared generally intact, lacking new signs of damage. This indicated a decrease in nighttime conflicts or battles that specifically avoided damaging the houses.

And then there were the conspicuous slogans hanging on the walls, such as Harmonious Development and Building a Better Temple Forest City and Common People in Temple Forest City Enjoy Happy and Fulfilling Lives. These slogans had an unmistakable

This revelation left An deeply unsettled. His expression darkened, and he became increasingly vigilant.

Something was amiss!

However, Fred, who was behind him, failed to notice this. He also saw the slogans on the walls but didnt understand their significance, so his brain automatically disregarded them.

In high spirits, he said, Boss, it seems Temple Forest City has changed a lot. Is it related to Charlies reluctance to find us? She must like it here and intends to spend her retirement here!

The Beast of Corrosion, Alai, jokingly added, Maybe she hasnt killed Charlotte yet!

As if hitting a funny bone, Fred burst into laughter. Its very likely. Chasing a Mimic-Shifter for four years without killing her is indeed Charlies trademark.

Meanwhile, An continued to scrutinize the unfamiliar city, missing no detail. His mind raced rapidly.

I must find out what has happened in Temple Forest City! I cant be reckless!
