Half a minute later, the middle-aged man's voice rang out again, "He's indeed dead. There's no need to alarm the Great Emperor. For now, stay put at your current location and do not allow any civilians or suspicious individuals to leave. I'm dispatching someone to exterminate the city immediately."
"Sir, I can take over the remaining investigation tasks," someone offered.
"There's no need," the middle-aged man said indifferently, "Criminals require investigation. For rebellion, only the location matters."
"...Understood."
The communication ended.
The Transcendent servant tossed aside the dead cat in his hand, soared into the air, and sat cross-legged at a high point a kilometer above, his thoughts spreading out.
Encompassing the entire Hecheng.
Detecting all signs of life.
Not concerning himself with those entering, only with those leaving...
...
He arrived at the mass grave to the west of the park and east of West Mountain.
