Jiang Baimian didn't delay, directly pushed open the car door and got out, and said to Long Yuehong and Bai Chen, who were using the outside space to accelerate the donning of their military exoskeletons on the other side:

"You stay here, responsible for providing backup and preparing for battle."

"I..." Bai Chen seemed to want to volunteer.

But before she could finish her words, Jiang Baimian quickly added:

"We're visiting Avia today, and our contact with her is with goodwill. Unless absolutely necessary, we won't clash with her. You wearing exoskeletons behind us is too oppressive and not friendly enough.

"Moreover, we have to guard against accidents, and someone must stay outside to provide backup."

Trying to contact Avia is not only the meaning of "Pangu Biology," but also the idea of the "Old Task Force" itself. After all, according to the words left by Marcus's mother, Avia has a very dangerous item there, the specific situation is unknown, so it's definitely a better choice for everyone to chat peacefully about Orei's "legacy" and see if they can reach cooperation in some areas.

And Avia's caged canary-like situation makes Jiang Baimian believe that her willingness to cooperate is likely to be high.

Bai Chen wanted to say that she could take off her military exoskeleton, but considering that this would take several more minutes, wasting the valuable time that Kanna had won for everyone, she could only nod and say:

"Okay."

While she and Long Yuehong continued to deal with the metal buckles that had not yet been attached, Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian had already walked towards 14 Round Hill Street.

They both wore armed belts around their waists, but did not draw their guns, leaving their hands empty to show sincerity.

There were several fully armed guards at the gate of Avia's classical villa, staring at Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao with vigilance.

This made Long Yuehong in the rear marvel, because when Kanna approached 14 Round Hill Street just now, these guards had no reaction.

No, they didn't have no reaction, but actively made way and helped open the gate, behaving as if they were welcoming the hostess home.

Before those guards could ask questions, Shang Jianyao took the initiative to speak:

"Good morning, let me briefly introduce myself:

"We are companions with the lady just now;

"We are not carrying heavy weapons;

"So..."

This time, Shang Jianyao's "Reasoning Clown" deliberately borrowed the "friendly environment" created by Kanna.

The guards showed expressions of realization one after another:

"You are here to visit Ms. Avia?

"She is waiting for you in the bathroom drawing-room."

Bathroom... Jiang Baimian couldn't help but want to laugh for a moment.

Worthy of being a noble who likes to take baths very much and has transformed half of her house into a bathroom.

While her thoughts were turning, she had already entered the classical villa supported by stone pillars together with Shang Jianyao.

Jiang Baimian's state was very relaxed, or deliberately seeking relaxation, so that she looked more like a real, friendly visitor.

With a sweep of her gaze, she began to introduce to Shang Jianyao:

"There are three styles of this kind of stone pillar, originating from ancient times in the Old World, thousands of years ago..."

"Will such a building attract a lot of mosquitoes?" Shang Jianyao looked at the green vines coiling around the pillars and walls as a landscape, and asked irrelevantly.

Jiang Baimian decided to give up on the "explanation."

The two soon met Avia's butler, used the same set of words, and were led by the other party to the outside of the bathroom drawing-room.

Dong, dong, dong.

The middle-aged gentleman-like butler gently knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" Avia's slightly cold voice came out.

"Madam..." Shang Jianyao stepped forward and, before the butler, repeated the similar "Reasoning Clown" conditions.

Avia's bathroom drawing-room is not much different from a normal drawing-room. It also has carpets, coffee tables, sofas, porcelain, and decorations, fully demonstrating the atmosphere of a noble.

The only difference is that there is a door on the side of this room that leads to a bathroom with various pools and a steam room.

In addition, Avia is not wearing normal clothes, but directly wrapped in a white bathrobe.

Her wavy golden hair was wet, and the whole person seemed to have just come out of the bathroom, full of indescribable charm.

This classical beauty, whose nose is only slightly larger, looked at Jiang Baimian and said with a smile:

"Would you like to take a bath first?

"No matter what the matter is, it's more effective to talk while taking a bath."

"That's not very good..." Shang Jianyao showed a "shy" expression.

Jiang Baimian then remembered a rumor:

Avia is a few years older than Marcus, and in the Ashlands, where early marriage and early childbirth are advocated, she still doesn't have a clear partner.

Some people suspect that she may not like men.

Avia responded to Shang Jianyao with a smile:

"You can go to the pool next door.

"If there is really anything that requires you to come over, we will put on our swimsuits in advance.

"Speaking of this, I especially envy the people of Golden Coast, they can bask in the sun on the beach and enjoy life."

Although the current Ashlands has initially restored a certain order, the food, clothing, and health problems of most people have not yet been resolved, the wilderness is still very dangerous, and there is no soil for rebuilding the tourism industry.

Jiang Baimian did not respond directly, but turned her head to look at Shang Jianyao:

"Remember what is the first thing we have to do?"

Shang Jianyao nodded and took two steps towards Avia, who was wearing a bathrobe.

He stared at her light blue eyes and asked seriously:

"Excuse me, where is the toilet? I want to take a dump."

"..." Not only Avia, but also Jiang Baimian, opened their mouths slightly.

This question was something she hadn't thought of beforehand.

Before Avia came back to her senses, Shang Jianyao added:

"If not, I can only do it here.

"I've recently grown hemorrhoids, and there may be bleeding, don't be surprised..."

Hearing this, Jiang Baimian raised her hand to cover her nose.

She probably understood what Shang Jianyao wanted to do, and this was also a step that they had agreed upon during the previous discussion of the plan.

But why use such a "dirty" method? Jiang Baimian slandered frantically in her heart.

At this time, Shang Jianyao had reached for his waist, preparing to untie his armed belt.

In the next second, the Avia and the bathroom drawing-room in front of him all disappeared, like a soap bubble being punctured.

Jiang Baimian found that she and Shang Jianyao were still in the jeep!

Long Yuehong and Bai Chen were wearing military exoskeletons that had not yet been fully buckled, leaning on the car doors outside, sleeping soundly with long breaths.

"True Dreamland"!

The "Old Task Force" had encountered "True Dreamland" again!

At this moment, although the "Mind Corridor" level Awakened in First City, except for those who shoulder special tasks, are rushing towards the Senate, there is an exception.

That is the one who previously ambushed the "Old Task Force," almost wiped them out, and was scared away by Xiaochong.

The secret organization behind him takes it as its mission to bury the clues to the cause of the Old World's destruction, and compared to interfering in the politics of First City, they hope to obliterate people like Avia who hold important secrets!

The "Old Task Force" had thought of this beforehand and designed a targeted plan:

Starting from the other party's suspected fear of the smell of blood, after seeing Avia or in the process of seeing Avia, deliberately create a wound and shed some blood.

In this way, even in a dream, the other party is likely to give up maintaining the effect due to fear of the smell of blood.

After multiple rounds of rock-paper-scissors, this task was snatched by Shang Jianyao, who knew that he had changed a method that almost disgusted even Jiang Baimian.

The current fact proves that the "Mind Corridor" level Awakened who can create "True Dreamland" is indeed afraid of or disgusted by the smell of blood, even more than this one kind of smell.

After all, disliking the smell of blood looks more like the price of "Hall of Stars" and "Sea of Origins". Once the Awakened enters the "Mind Corridor," the corresponding situation will definitely be more serious, and the types of smells may have changed.

Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao had just woken up and hadn't had time to do anything when they closed their eyes again.

"Forced Sleep"!

This time, they didn't dream anymore.

After the previous few encounters, Kao, as a "Mind Corridor" level Awakened, had already figured out all the tricks of the "Old Task Force" and could avoid many problems.

He is now just afraid of the child named Xiaochong, afraid that the other party is also nearby.

…………

Red Wolf District, at the Senate.

The Subhuman Guard members who suddenly lost their shooting ability were not panicked because of this - their training included courses on facing "Mind Corridor" level Awakened head-on.

At the critical moment, several bluish-skinned "Frogmen" opened their mouths.

They did not shout out loud, but in front of them, the city defense army, along with the assembled citizens, fell down one after another, like grass lowered by the wind.

Infrasonic attack!

This is the mutated ability of the "Frogmen."

At the same time, many Subhumans also gave up shooting and switched to using their own "gifted" abilities. Some spat venom, some emitted sounds that made people sleepy, some took off all their tops, revealing patterned skin that could make observers dizzy...

While they were desperately blocking the citizens from entering the Senate, the nobles inside were dealing with Governor Beauris, who had suddenly contracted "Heartless Disease."

Under that pair of turbid blue eyes, people's thoughts, including Inspector Alexander, naturally diverged and became difficult to concentrate.
