Huo Lin nodded and then said solemnly, "The labyrinth and that black cabin have been set with an early warning system. Once someone approaches, it will directly trigger an alarm."
"However, when you entered the labyrinth, Shuishui temporarily shielded your figure, which is why the alarm did not go off."
Hearing Huo Lin's words, Fang Ze was stunned for a moment and then immediately deduced that this must have been arranged by the puppets under the Flower God after he had returned to the Flower God.
It was meant to prevent him from returning after leaving.
After discussing this, Huo Lin continued,
"I have already checked just now, and there indeed exists a demigod's aura in that space, which means the core of the demigod's arrival truly is there."
"In that case, if we take control of that different dimension space beforehand and control the channel connecting the Flower God with the real world, we can easily restrain and capture her."
"Thus, from now on, this place will temporarily be under our control."
"I will notify the team members surveying other areas to come here and make preparations."
Fang Ze asked, "Is there anything we need to cooperate with?"
Huo Lin shook his head. He said, "This time, we are mainly conducting a rehearsal for the demigod's arrival. Thus, we will not interfere with the demigod's ritual in any way."
"Once she arrives, we will try to control her at the earliest to prevent her from causing major damage to Emerald City."
"So, for the preliminary phase, you don't need to do anything. Of course, you must not let your guard down, always be ready to provide post-battle support and rescue for ordinary people."
Hearing Huo Lin's words, Fang Ze nodded seriously, "Yes, I understand."
Seeing that Fang Ze understood, Huo Lin nodded, then said, "Alright. You and Shuishui wait here for a moment, I'll go contact my teammates."
After finishing speaking, he walked slowly towards the outside, and as he walked further away, his figure gradually faded and eventually disappeared into the air...
After he left, only Fang Ze and Yu Shuishui remained at the scene.
The two looked at each other, eye to eye.
After a moment, Fang Ze was the first to speak, "Have you eaten? What did you eat? Who cooked it?"
Just when Yu Shuishui didn't know how to respond to Fang Ze's awkward conversation, suddenly, she caught something in the corner of her eye behind Fang Ze.
At that moment, she was stunned, then her eyes widened in shock, and she involuntarily pointed toward the sky behind Fang Ze, saying, "What is that!?"
In Emerald City. That teahouse where members of the Rejuvenation Society often gathered.
The Bandage Woman, Hua Nu, Director Pang, and Butcher Dog were sitting in a private room.
The Bandage Woman sat silently in the main seat, while the other three were quietly talking across from her.
Hua Nu, "Qin 28 has already been transmitted back to the society using the treasure tool. Technically, our task is complete. Yet, the president insists on us staying to observe the Flower Morning Festival. Why is that?"
Butcher Dog, with a grim face, replied, "According to the information provided by Fang Ze, the Flower Morning Festival is not as simple as imagined; it's a conspiracy of the Flower God. It's very likely that the president wants us to observe and record everything."
"Those demigods might be aware of the secret from 50 years ago, and they might even be related to that secret."
Director Pang, with his hands clasped and a cheerful expression, said, "I think analyzing this is useless. Whatever the president asks us to do, we just do it. Why bother worrying about so much? The president would surely not harm us, right?"
While they were talking, the Bandage Woman, who had been sitting silently at the main seat, suddenly raised her head sharply.
The eye visible outside her bandages suddenly turned towards the window.
Immediately, her form blurred, and the next moment, she appeared on the rooftop of the teahouse, looking surprised towards the sky!
Seeing the Bandage Woman react this way, the three inside the room were also stunned.
After a moment, Hua Nu tilted her head, her form also faded, passing through layers of buildings, arrived at the rooftop, and stood next to the Bandage Woman, looking toward the distant horizon.
The remaining Director Pang and Butcher Dog looked at each other, then quickly approached the window to look out!
And at this moment, whether it was Fang Ze and Yu Shuishui outside the Red Light District, Little You, or Huo Lin not far away contacting his team, or the Rejuvenation Society's group of four, the Security Bureau's people, or even all the residents of Emerald City, suddenly felt as if their spirit wavered momentarily, and space twisted together!
Suddenly, everyone's ears were filled with that airy, ethereal voice, "Birth of flowers is a propitious time, spring is yet to reach its prime at Flower Morning. A thousand hues, a myriad of tints adorn brocades, still labor to embellish for the Flower God...."
Accompanied by that voice, everyone instinctively looked up.
What they saw was countless figures of supremely beautiful Flower Gods in white gowns in the sky over Emerald City, moving in unison, their elegant bodies dancing gracefully.
With high kicks, bending waists, and turning around, their bodies moved as softly as flowing water, their movements as ethereal as immortals!
And as they danced, dark clouds began to gather near the entire area surrounding Emerald City, countless flowers broke from their stems, twinkling with light, flying towards the sky!
Emerald City's Paradise District in the Red Light District suddenly burst open, seven different-colored light columns from seven different areas sprayed up into the sky like a rainbow, beginning to overflow in the air.
