The headquarters of the Wild Wolf Gang was hidden deep within the slums of Dream City.
The environment here was harsh, with narrow streets, garbage everywhere, and people starving to death.
Along both sides of the road, emaciated residents in tattered clothes lay casually at the edge of the road, their lives hanging by a thread.
The air was filled with the stench of decay, dilapidated houses teetered precariously, and mottled walls looked as if they could collapse at any moment.
At this moment, in the Wild Wolf Gang’s headquarters, Shao Kang, the second-in-command of the Wild Wolf Gang, hung his head, receiving a stern reprimand from the Gang Leader.
“Idiot! Shao Kang, you are an idiot! Didn’t I tell everyone to be careful of women, and not to be used by Firefly’s spies! You, on the other hand, fell for a honey trap and thought you were irresistibly charming, and damn it, you let someone extract our biggest secret from your wife’s mouth!”
Shao Kang’s face was ashen, his fists clenched, his teeth gritted, and a flicker of regret and anger flashed in his eyes.
Before the apocalypse, he was a rich second-generation heir, living a life of debauchery and loving to chase women; after the apocalypse, he joined the Wild Wolf Gang as a Mutant and remained obsessed with women.
His wife was a model he married before the apocalypse, but even the most beautiful woman eventually became tiresome.
After the apocalypse, Shao Kang, out of old affection, did not abandon his wife, mainly because after a long time of chasing women, he occasionally needed to return to his family for a touch of warmth.
More than half a month ago, Dou Paopao at the bar piqued his interest; compared to other women, she was truly a bit difficult to pursue, and in this apocalypse, Shao Kang actually spent nearly ten days to win her over.
However, it was precisely because she was difficult to pursue that he lowered his guard and failed to detect Dou Paopao’s true identity.
But Shao Kang was not someone who would easily leak secrets, yet he never expected that Dou Paopao wouldn’t target him, but instead set her sights on his wife!
And his wife, in particular, was extremely vain, and Shao Kang never imagined that there would be such a thing as a Youth-Retaining Chili!
Dou Paopao used one Youth-Retaining Chili, making his wife eternally grateful to Dou Paopao, even regarding Dou Paopao as her confidante, and unreservedly divulging all the Wild Wolf Gang’s secrets she knew! This included the most crucial piece of intelligence!
Dou Paopao’s cunning methods shocked Shao Kang, but this was immediately followed by boundless hatred!
He had always thought Dou Paopao was his ‘trophy’; yet he never expected that he had been the fish on the hook all along!
It turned out that at noon today, Shao Kang’s wife rushed to tell him that Dou Paopao had disappeared.
Initially, Shao Kang didn’t pay much attention, but combining it with the recent widespread rumors of Firefly using women to gather intelligence, he then realized that something was seriously wrong.
Recalling the time he met Dou Paopao, wasn't it around the same time Firefly entered Dream City?
Shao Kang dared not be careless and carefully questioned his wife about the details of her interactions with Dou Paopao, only then realizing that his wife had told Dou Paopao all the Wild Wolf Gang’s secrets she knew.
He had been wondering why his wife seemed to have become more beautiful recently, and now he knew that such a miraculous item as the Youth-Retaining Chili existed.
How could Dou Paopao be an ordinary woman if she could give away such a magical item as a Youth-Retaining Chili!
At first, Shao Kang still held onto a glimmer of hope, sending his subordinates to search everywhere, but Dou Paopao had long since vanished without a trace, leaving no clues behind.
Shao Kang’s heart gradually grew cold; he had already realized that there was a ninety percent chance Dou Paopao was Firefly’s spy!
This method of disappearing immediately after collecting intelligence was exactly the same as that of Firefly’s female spies!
Shao Kang knew deeply that once the Wild Wolf Gang’s secrets were exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He was filled with remorse, but there was nothing he could do; he could only bite the bullet and report the news to the Gang Leader, hoping the Gang Leader could come up with a countermeasure.
“Idiot! Idiot, it’s over, it’s all over, Shao Kang, you’ve damned the entire Wild Wolf Gang!”
The Gang Leader of Wild Wolf Gang roared, his face ashen, his eyes practically spitting fire.
He slammed his hand on the table, making the teacup overturn and tea spill everywhere.
“Do you know that those secrets are enough to wipe us out completely! We’ve been keeping a low profile for so long to avoid exposure, and now you’ve ruined everything!”
Shao Kang lowered his head, not daring to look directly, his heart filled with regret and self-reproach.
“Gang Leader, I am willing to bear all consequences, I only ask that you take measures as soon as possible to mitigate the losses.”
The Gang Leader of Wild Wolf Gang slumped weakly onto the sofa, his eyes hollow, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.
He took a deep breath and slowly said, “Now we can only offer our research results as a token of allegiance to Peerless Apocalypse and the Three Giants in exchange for their protection and assistance; perhaps there is still a glimmer of hope.”
Shao Kang clenched his teeth, his heart a mix of emotions: “Gang Leader, is there no other way?”
Shao Kang was unwilling; they had been keeping a low profile for so long, waiting for an opportunity to soar, but they never expected the opportunity to come, yet they had no time to fly.
“We have no retreat, Shao Kang.”
The Gang Leader’s voice was low and weary, his eyes flickering with unwillingness and helplessness: “That research result is of immense importance; Firefly will definitely silence us to prevent the secret from leaking. You are a flying ability user, now immediately find three more flying ability users, take the research results, and go to Peerless Apocalypse and the Three Giants for help. Remember, be quick; any hesitation, and all of us will face utter destruction. Go quickly!”
Shao Kang took the order and quickly gathered three flying ability users; although he was unwilling, he understood that only action could secure a glimmer of hope at this moment. The four carried the research results, transforming into four streaks of light, soaring into the sky, heading straight for the territories of Peerless Apocalypse and the Three Giants; it was a matter of life and death, and there was no time to lose.
Not long after Shao Kang left, Zuo Feng and his group gradually entered the Wild Wolf Gang’s headquarters, where it was a world apart from the outside; outside were starving people everywhere, but here it was a life of debauchery.
Zuo Feng also never expected that this obscure Wild Wolf Gang would hide such a huge secret; they were truly patient enough, their true strength was clearly close to that of the Sanshui Gang before its destruction, yet they showed no signs of it.
“Xiao Mi Tao, have Wood Essence and Wood Spirit surround the Wild Wolf Gang’s headquarters.”
The vehicles stopped at the entrance of a bar 500 meters from the Wild Wolf Gang’s headquarters, Zuo Feng looked at the Wild Wolf Gang’s gate, and gave a deep order.
Xiao Mi Tao quickly relayed the instructions, and Wood Essence and Wood Spirit transformed into two green shadows, rapidly scattering seeds around the Wild Wolf Gang’s headquarters. Once everything was ready, Wood Essence and Wood Spirit returned to Xiao Mi Tao’s shoulders, chirping their report; although he couldn’t understand, Zuo Feng knew they had completed their mission.
Zuo Feng nodded: “Act!”
Zuo Feng walked slowly towards the Wild Wolf Gang’s gate with Xiao Mi Tao, and at this moment, outside the Wild Wolf Gang, strange plants grew wildly, their branches and vines intertwining into an impenetrable barrier, completely surrounding the entire headquarters.
This time, Zuo Feng dared not be careless; he absolutely could not let the Wild Wolf Gang leak the news.
Except for the five Python Branch Giant Trees, all other plants were deployed, ensuring absolute foolproofness, and the seeds of the Python Branch Giant Trees were all sown, ready to grow into five hundred-meter-tall behemoths at any time, forming an indestructible defense line.
The large Wild Wolf Gang headquarters instantly became an isolated area, cut off from the outside.
At the same time, the Gang Leader of Wild Wolf Gang, who had just finished deploying, his face changed dramatically when he saw the rapidly growing plant barrier outside, and his last shred of hope instantly vanished; he knew deeply that the situation was irreversible.
Now he had to desperately stall for time, waiting for Shao Kang to arrive with reinforcements from Peerless Apocalypse and the Three Giants.
