Becoming a White-Haired Witch in a World Full of Anomalies

Chapter 77 : Light Chasers

A CityInside the Anomaly Investigation Bureau

"Father, are you alright?"

"I'm fine."

"But your injuries are very serious."

The girl looked worriedly at her father. His expression was very grave. He lay weakly in bed. Codename Heaven's Secret now seemed like an ordinary person, feeling sad about his own incompetence.

"Tell them that codename Heaven's Secret, the head's eyes and ears, is declared - dead."

"What?"

"Father, did your anomaly die?"

"That's right, my anomaly died."

"How could that be? Then aren't you now?"

"Don't worry about me. Go do what you want to do."

"Alright, I do need to make a trip to E City."

○

"Everyone, you surely know the situation. Eyes and Ears is dead, Claw is missing, and the Head has never appeared."

"The former order has completely vanished. The city is now in chaos."

"Even with barrier protection, many anomalies still breed within the city."

"We urgently need to establish a new order."

"Now, with us companies that master core technology leading, we're taking control of this city."

"The first thing we need to handle is the anomaly problem within the city."

"So where do the anomalies in the city come from?"

"From uneasy citizens."

"So the best method is - kill them."

"What?"

"This, you're simply insane. Besides, these events happening can't be without your contribution. Isn't that right, Doctor? I heard you brought Terminus Cult people into the Investigation Bureau interior to destroy the cognitive filter."

"I admit the previous matter was my mistake, but that we can still stand here talking, you should thank my company's barrier. Moreover, compared to other people's lives, surely you all care more about yourselves and your relatives, don't you?"

"Unrelated masses, just kill them."

"This..."

Everyone's hearts wavered slightly.

"My company has a solution."

A green-haired man wearing a mask and white coat stepped forward.

"I'm J Company's chief. Everyone, listen to me."

"We've created a drug that produces hallucinations after consumption, giving people a sense of security. I guarantee no side effects, just that the cost is a bit expensive."

"Name your price."

"First batch, free!"

"What?"

"Such a good money-making opportunity, how could you possibly pass it up?"

"Hahahaha, that's naturally because I have a benevolent heart for saving the world."

The green-haired man laughed maniacally.

"Don't do that. Acting like that makes me afraid to use it."

The green-haired man placed one hand on his shoulder, the other hand tracing an arc.

"You must trust my character. Hahahaha."

Su Wanying left her father's room and came to the secret chamber carved with teleportation gates, returning to the Investigation Bureau's E City underground level negative five.

This was H Company's core technology - wormholes. It was said another company cooperated with them to create such teleportation gates.

This was also why when Lin Bai pressed negative five in Black City, Heaven's Secret drove him out. If Black City knew about this teleportation array, he might have invaded A City through it.

"Lin Bai, are you still alive?"

○

At this time, Bai Ling was lying beside the bed, with Chi Xiaoyu, who had just awakened, on the bed.

"How did you defeat him?"

"With second brother."

"?"

Just then, the room's doorbell was pressed.

"Ding dong."

"Coming meow~"

"Who is it meow~"

"Opening door meow."

Several cats ran lively to open the door, with only one cat on the sofa watching TV indifferently.

"Uh."

Su Wanying looked somewhat dazed at the various lolis before her. Had she come to the wrong place?

"Hello, big sister meow."

"Hello meow."

"Hello."

Su Wanying entered the room, scanned around, and didn't find Lin Bai, so she sat next to Lin Xinyao.

"Hello, we meet again."

"Hello."

"Where's your brother? Is he okay?"

"She's fine."

"Oh, then where is he?"

"Don't know."

Su Wanying looked around the room. Bai Ling was lying beside Chi Xiaoyu's bed, taking care of her.

"Bai Ling? Chi Xiaoyu?"

"Su Wanying, how did you come here?"

Chi Xiaoyu asked.

"I was worried Lin Bai was in danger."

"He's fine. You don't need to worry."

"Get him back quickly. Let's go to A City together. Without barrier protection, it's still too dangerous here."

"Barrier?"

"It's B Company's core technology. Originally energy stored to reach god-creating levels, but lacking qualitative change. The formed barrier can last several months."

"He might not come back that quickly."

"Alright, I'll wait for him here."

Just then, a piercing sound rang out. The sound was grand and enormous, like whale calls from the ocean.

"Did you hear any sound?"

"Just like a whale, hehehe."

"Look, such a big fish meow."

Everyone looked toward the window to see a huge whale floating in the air nearby, making enormous roaring sounds.

"What, what is this?"

"Legend says there was once a huge whale in the world called Leviathan."

"There's also a legend about Kun."

"Which do you think this is?"

"Good heavens, a fish flying in the sky."

"I feel like it's approaching us."

"Not a feeling."

"Run!"

Everyone quickly left the room and came downstairs. Soon that enormous whale destroyed all surrounding buildings, including the room everyone had just been in. In its eyes, everything was so small, humans like ants.

With the collapse of the building before them, countless fragments fell down. To prevent the cats and Bai Ling from being injured, Su Wanying manifested two long blades formed of black flames and continuously cut through the falling bricks around them, then grabbed Bai Ling's hand.

"Let's run."

"Follow me."

Su Wanying led everyone toward the Anomaly Investigation Bureau headquarters. This was no longer an anomaly she could handle.

"Too bad we can't take Lin Bai with us."

"Don't worry, he'll be fine."

Bai Ling comforted.

"Really?"

"Of course."

Leading everyone to the Investigation Bureau's interior negative fifth level, Su Wanying pressed the switch. Everyone slowly disappeared in a flash of light and appeared in A City.

Leaving the secret chamber and returning to A City's streets, looking up at the huge barrier in the sky, everyone showed amazement. What a magnificent energy barrier!

"We're safe, temporarily..."

E City

"Welcome everyone to join us Light Chasers."

"Surely everyone who survived to now has some capabilities."

"I'll keep it short. Everything now is caused by the black mist in the sky."

"What we need to do is disperse that black mist and find the light!"

"It's that simple. Those who join our sect can receive our protection. We're not some evil cult and don't need you to pay any price."

"We do only one thing - chase light!"

"Chase light!"
