Guan Ye sighed in relief and searched for the naughty dog once again to keep an eye on her as well but she was nowhere to be seen.

Even though he was also in stealth, there seemed to be no way for him to figure out the position of the other party. For all he knew, she could be hiding and lying in wait in any of the shadows around.

After searching for her for a while, he gave up and paid attention to the main reason why he was here. He moved around and silently observed everything in the base.

According to their plan, after another half an hour, he needed to create a disturbance. Using this Lu Chen and Mo Ling would leave the facility, having successfully surveyed this whole establishment.

There was still some time left for that and everything else also seemed to be in place, so Guan Ye silently continued observing the situation.

However, in the midst of this silent evening, suddenly a loud explosion resounded in the distance. It was only faintly audible but there was unmistakable a sound as if someone was setting off powerful fireworks.

All the guards standing on the compound including Guan Ye immediately became alert and Qin Hua as well, of course, heard the noise.

While Guan Ye continued standing there, not sure of how he was to proceed now, a couple of the guards went inside to inform the commander and Qin Hua had a solemn expression that made her already ferocious lycan features, even more terrifying.

Her senses were even more enhanced compared to the others. So she could tell where the explosion was probably from.

She might not be able to pinpoint the location, but she knew it was clearly coming from the area around the hospital where everyone else was supposed to be.

Did something happen? Su Yan was still there and so was Coco, Xu Meilin, and Alex.

Qin Hua’s ears perked up and she quickly bounded off from one shadow into another, heading closer to the hospital.

[Woof! Woof! Chunky, can you hear me?] She tried contacting her follower mentally but no reply came from the other end.

[Hmm… I should just take a quick look. Woof!]

She summoned her clone and left it near the base while dashing ahead as far as she could testing the limits of the clone.

Her black body blurred jumping from one shadow to another and she was moving at an extremely fast pace. However, just as she reached mid-way between the base and the hospital, she unexpectedly came to a sudden halt.

[Huh? Woof Woof?]

Qin Hua lifted up her snout and smelled the air around her. Something smelled extremely bad. It was a very distinct foul smell as if a hundred dead and decaying corpses were rotting together.

[Sniff] [Sniff]

She regretfully sniffed around even though the smell completely nauseated her and a couple of seconds later, she somehow managed to locate the source of the smell.

It was coming from a small burrow near one of the tree trunks. She went closer to the tree and dug the ground with her paw. The smell seemed to be coming out from under the ground.

[Woof! What the hell is happening?] Qin Hua was confused. Just what was there in the ground that gave off such an unholy smell! And how was she supposed to find out?

She didn’t have the time right now to dig a random place and solve a random mystery. Maybe some mutated beast farted and its fart was this pungent?

Just as she was thinking about this problem, and was even prepared to leave as the others might be in danger, she suddenly heard a familiar purring noise.

[Woof! The heck?]

Qin Hua gulped and she looked up, only to see a cat sitting atop the tree.

[Chunky coco??? But what are you doing here?]

The cute and adorable feline creature cocked its head and innocently smiled at her.

Meow!

[Ahhh! You idiot! Why can’t you give me an explanation for the things that you do??? Is that too much to ask?]

Meow Meow?

[You! I will spank you later! Woof!]

Now that Qin Hua had seen the cat loitering around this place, along with the thick concentrated dead smell wafting out, she could no longer ignore what was right in front of her.

Even though her team mates might be in trouble right now, she could tell that she still needed to get to the bottom of this puzzle in front of her.

She didn’t hesitate any longer. She looked around and saw that no one else was there. And she needed to dig really fast…

[Woof! I should definitely activate that skill!]

The next second, she mumbled something, and almost immediately her body started changing. Her elegant lycan structure creaked and cracked and her entire body began to change.

Qin Hua felt an explicable urge to howl loudly. But she held out against the urge and snapped her canines instead.

Growl! She let out a low roar and grunted as her body finally stopped changing.

The dog’s eyes widened in shock as she looked down to see that she was now standing on her two hind legs almost like a human.

Her paws and her claws were elongated almost twice her normal size and her body looked more furry than usual, though only in certain areas.

She had really become a werewolf now!!! A really big terrifying monstrous werewolf with long canines and devilish eyes, one green, and one blue in color!

Growl! She let out another low roar and stopped admiring her new form. The skill was brand new and she hadn’t used it at all. So maybe because it was at its most basic level, she could only take this form for a few seconds and she knew it.

So she quickly got onto work and started using her giant hands and long sharp nails to dig the ground as if a treasure was buried there, albeit an extremely stinky smelly treasure.
