"...So cruel."
Ah Qing, with a shocked expression, instinctively raised her hand to cover her mouth: "They... how could they treat those spirit beasts like this, using dynamite to blow them up."
In the Security Bureau's eyes, spirit beasts were seen as a group inclined towards freeloading—no matter how fierce they were, they had never actively hunted humans with malicious intent.
Those originally violent spirit beasts, as defined by the Security Bureau, were not spirit beasts, but rather evil beasts.
Now, hearing Snake Woman recount the case, it turned out that a group of cultivators was hunting spirit beasts.
In addition to shock and disbelief, Ah Qing felt a deep anger, so intense her eyes turned red.
Spirit beasts didn't even eat the rice from your house, why specifically run to the mountains to target and kill spirit beasts? That's just too wicked.
"Since you're here to borrow spirit beasts for a strong attack, I think—save some hassle, I'll just go with you."
Ansheng paused and said, "Blowing up the spirit beasts on my turf, they clearly don't care about my existence at all."
"Since they're being so disrespectful, crossing the line without paying their respects here, I, as Master Fuli, must go and see who they are."
In the Security Bureau, Ansheng felt very assured, especially with his "Interrogation Room Medical First Aid technique," which could revive the "patient" without any problems found.
No need for the interrogator to say much—just send the patient into the X-ray inspection room first for three hundred scans.
In extreme terror, they might even recall when they wet the bed in their past life.
Those evil cultivators falling into the Security Bureau's hands, Ansheng trusted the Bureau's handling and interrogation methods.
He originally didn't want to get involved, having previously neglected Ah Qing due to being busy with trips.
But isn't there now Wish Power?
Accompanying Ah Qing for shopping doesn't have to be limited to wandering on the ground; flying a plane is also an option.
"Old Bull!"
Master Fuli turned around, took a deep breath, and looked into the ecological base, letting out a long cry:
"Go! Notify Fat Cat to bring all the machine guns and sniper rifles to the top of the teaching building!"
"Also, notify Chang'an Airways to bring my helicopter here. Right, find someone who isn't afraid to get their hands dirty, gather in half an hour."
"Moo!?"
With a roar from Master Fuli, the antelope and white-limbed wild cattle, previously napping, jumped up; one horn got stuck into the brick building's floor, leaving them hanging mid-air, cluelessly listening to Master Fuli's orders.
"Master Fuli, this is..."
Snake Woman shifted position, sidling up to Ah Qing to inquire what Master Fuli had just said.
While Master Fuli usually communicated clearly, his cry left Snake Woman genuinely confused; additionally, the original copperhead snake was on a car blowing air conditioning, not present.
"Uh... The little fox said he wants to blow up the poachers right now. He's gathering troops and pledges not to take any nonsense—otherwise, he will tattoo his full name on his backside today."
Ah Qing thought over it and translated the little fox's rallying cry.
"Master Fuli's full name?" Snake Woman blinked, confusedly looking at Ah Qing.
Master Fuli's full name is obviously Ansheng, right?
"Uh... his full name is 'Safe Travels'." Ah Qing awkwardly revealed, her cheeks flushed.
"Uh..." Snake Woman appeared dazed, glancing at the little fox standing on the pickup truck hood, arms crossed and seemingly impatiently tapping its little feet.
"I can sense immense fury—better swipe my insurance card later and buy a couple of boxes of Bezoar Upper Clearing Pill to ease the heat. Maybe a bottle of Wanglaoji too..."
What Master Fuli needed was being prepared; the low-altitude flight route application was being coordinated by the Security Bureau.
Ah Qing and others left both nests with Shasha at the ecological base.
Shasha entered the base only to see a tiger wearing blue-light blocking glasses, reading a materials science book quietly while sitting in the classroom's long chair.
Medicine Spring Mountain Lord noticed, glanced over to see Shasha walk towards the window; with an intelligent air about her and a shark tail peeking out, they exchanged polite smiles.
"The other side seems pretty cultured." Shasha quietly thought.
"The land shark must be a scholar too." Medicine Spring Mountain Lord pondered thoughtfully.
…
"Master Fuli... that civilian helicopter pilot." Snake Woman, seeing the distant helicopter, looked at Master Fuli with concern: "I'm afraid he'll be scared."
Among people with flight licenses, even in Chang'an, the numbers are quite substantial—it costs less than 400,000 to acquire a small plane pilot's license.
But they aren't part of the Security Bureau, proving to be uncontrollable variables during missions.
If not for this, the Bureau wouldn't opt for difficult forest routes when drafting action plans.
However, there's no alternative—the pilots have more important tasks, like conducting modular building airlifts in and out of the mountains, rotating shifts.
"No need for pilots. I'll fly it myself." Master Fuli confidently replied, looking at Snake Woman.
"You... got a license?" Snake Woman blinked, confused; there was no news of Master Fuli getting a pilot's license at the Bureau?
"Why would a fox need a license anyway? A license would get revoked—might as well skip the hassle, save some money to spend on skins and monthly gaming passes." Master Fuli gazed at Snake Woman in confusion, seemingly questioning if a fox like him truly needed certification.
"Without a license, how can you fly it?" Snake Woman, astonished, asked.
"I played the famous DCS simulator on Tang You's computer—guaranteed smooth like a little fox." Master Fuli delightedly noted, watching Snake Woman's startled expression, mouth agape and eyes wide.
"After all... even if it crashes, I can withstand it—I'll carry you as we fly out of here."
Master Fuli chuckled heartily; though he hadn't physically operated helicopters, he diligently documented the handling principles and key techniques.
Also, he indeed ran flight simulations—after some turbulence, finding joystick control tips, he almost reached flying capability.
Operating helicopters tests courage rather than skills—all other concerns were considered by manufacturers for customers and buyers already.
"Buzz Buzz Buzz—"
Evicting the civilian captain from the helicopter, Master Fuli settled into the pilot's seat, retrieved the operation manual, carefully verified each test to ensure issues were solved, then drove the helicopter for a trial run above the ecological base.
"Everyone hop on!"
"Send the location to Ah Qing's phone; I'll use a naughty GPS to navigate..."
Given the chance to join the mission, Ah Qing and the others eagerly boarded the helicopter, intrigued by the opportunity.
But, just as they settled on the helicopter...
Snake Woman tossed a metal box to each of them and loaded a basket of bullets from the hand trolley onto the helicopter.
"Here, everyone grab one—old model machine guns. They won't break your heart if damaged—just don't hold onto the trigger too long, or it will overheat and burst."
Snake Woman handed a machine gun to Ah Qing, who stared blankly at the black firearm in her hands:
"Uh, what's this..."
"Do we really get to use this? Wait, isn't doing this illegal?"
"Illegal how? If you take down criminals, I'll need to notify public security to award you for bravery!"
"Absolutely Xia Country's five-star model citizen..."
Ah Qing: "..."
