"So the ability is destruction." Yangguang nodded to himself, "This can explain the orders from the bureau."Ding Junshan also confirmed, "If what the evil boy said is correct, then the ability of the laughing girl can destroy the entire horror cave... This is a power comparable to that of a lethal weapon... Now I can fully understand the instructions of the bureau."
As he said this, he looked at the laughing girl and said, "So far, have you ever activated this ability? Is the effect really..."
The Laughing Girl smiled bitterly, tears rolling down her face, "I activated it once, and the effect was complete destruction. Otherwise, the bureau wouldn't value me so much."
"That was a C-rank Terror Hole. All my teammates sacrificed themselves to protect me... I activated my ability when I was on the verge of death. Before that, I had never tried to destroy something as big as a Terror Hole..."
"A feeling more painful than near-death exploded in my body. I couldn't bear it at all. My eyes went dark and I passed out."
"When I woke up again... people from the bureau came to pick me up and told me the good news very happily." The smiling girl lowered her head, looking lonely.
"They said the terror cave had disappeared, and my team members and I successfully protected the people in that area... They were so happy... So happy that no one observed a moment of silence for the teammates who set out with me..."
"I am the only one who survived in the team. I am alive only because of my teammates' desperate rescue. But I became a hero."
The laughing girl raised her lips sarcastically, "What kind of hero am I..."
"That is..." Yangguang's tone was a little cautious, "The time when there was a B-level explorer with you?"
The laughing girl responded softly.
"Grade B...died?" Yangguang still found it hard to believe.
The laughing girl raised her head, tears flashing in her eyes. "Whether one can survive or not has little to do with ability. He was very powerful, but he still died in the horror cave..."
Ranran watched silently and agreed with this conclusion in her heart. After all, she could be said to have adapted to the cave this time as an ordinary person.
She has no powers, but she is alive now.
Ding Junshan pursed his lips before speaking, "My next words may be a little offensive, I hope you don't mind."
"You said that the bureau was fully certain of your abilities after this C-rank mission, so why did your teammates risk their lives to protect you during this mission?"
"Is your ability level still higher than that B-level ability user?"
The laughing girl shook her head with tears in her eyes. "No, that's why I can't understand it..."
"The bureau only rated my ability level as C, but the destructive power I displayed when using my ability even surpassed some A-level ability users..."
Yangguang nodded absentmindedly, "It should be A-level, right? How can the ability to destroy the entire Terror Cave only be C-level..."
The laughing girl paused, "But my result was only a C."
"Because of the uniqueness of my ability, it even alerted the deputy director at the time. It was he who made the bold assumption - to destroy the terror cave."
The smiling girl raised her head and met everyone's gaze. "That is to say, when I accepted the mission, my ability to destroy the Terror Cave was only a possibility, not a fact..."
"And my teammates have been protecting me just for this possibility..."
The laughing girl seemed to recall the tragic scene at that time and couldn't help crying with her face covered. "They were all people who were stronger than me...but they died because of a useless me..."
Ding Junshan's throat moved slightly, and he said gently: "You don't need to be sad and cry. Their deaths are meaningful. At least your team has verified something that the bureau urgently needs to verify."
"Your ability can really destroy the Terror Cave, that's enough."
"What's the use?!" Xiaonv collapsed and said, "Those who died can't come back!"
Shen Dinghai looked at Ran Ran helplessly. Ran Ran looked calm, with a pair of calm eyes that seemed to say that she had no choice. Comforting people was never her specialty.
Dingjunshan sighed, and without any resistance, he gently took Xiaonu into his arms.
This poor man, who had been tortured by self-blame for a long time, probably needed a hug too much. After feeling the warmth, he finally burst into tears.
"I don't know what your teammates really think." Ding Junshan's tone was gentle but firm, "But if I had carried out that mission with you, I would not have any regrets."
Dingjunshan met Xiaonu's tearful eyes and said, "I will be very pleased."
"Your teammates are willing to sacrifice for you, just as you will grieve for them."
Crying and feeling guilty cannot make up for the loss of a life, but since it was a comforting statement, she could just listen to it and Ranran looked away with disinterest.
Xiaonu cried for a long time before she recovered. Ranran finally took the opportunity to ask about the Dark Yao organization.
"I can sense that you cherish the Bureau of Non-Investigation and your partners in the bureau. Then how did you get involved with that Dark Yao? Or..."
Ran Ran narrowed his eyes, "Were you An Yao's man from the beginning?"
The laughing girl's face suddenly turned pale.
Ranran's brows relaxed. This was right. She was just lying casually. With such poor psychological quality, she couldn't be an undercover.
Shen Dinghai and Yang Guang looked at each other, obviously unable to believe it.
Ding Junshan frowned, "Why?"
The laughing girl's face was even paler than when she was lying in the kitchen covered in blood and injured. "No reason."
Her tone was trembling, and she seemed afraid to look up and look at everyone again, "I was Dark Yao's person from the beginning, and they recruited me."
Yangguang rubbed his temple with his hand. "If I remember correctly, Jun just told us that you were threatened by An Yao. How come you have become a member of An Yao now?"
Ran Ran said calmly: "It's easy to understand."
"An Yao accepted her, but she couldn't adapt to the environment there, so she escaped from An Yao. Later, she was recruited by the Non-Investigation Bureau as a person with special abilities. After An Yao found out, he threatened her family to keep her from staying in the Non-Investigation Bureau and working for them..." Ran Ran nodded to herself, "It makes sense."
"Is that really the case?" Yangguang looked at Ranran and Xiaonu at the same time, his eyes constantly wandering between the two of them.
The laughing girl said in a low voice: "That's roughly it."
"Dark Yao is too cruel. I can't adapt to it. The Non-Adjustment Bureau is different..." Her voice trembled again, "Everyone in the Non-Adjustment Bureau is very warm."
"I feel at home in the ABI..."
Ran Ran looked towards Dingjun Mountain and said, "Look at the information when the Non-Investigation Bureau recruited Xiao Nu, and half of it can be verified."
Ding Junshan knew the inside story and said truthfully: "She was already a person with special abilities at that time. She said that she accidentally entered the Terror Cave and gained her abilities."
Yangguang was young and didn't know that people were evil. He was shocked and honest, "So Sister Xiaonu lied. She got her ability from Dark Yao."
Ran Ran spread his hands, "It depends on whether An Yao has the ability to develop genetic drugs."
As she spoke, she met the Laughing Girl's eyes and said, "If so, then she's lying to us again."
"I find it hard to believe that you can escape from the horror cave unscathed." (End of this chapter)
