【Emergency Mission: Save the heroine Leah, who is about to lose her legs.
Mission Requirements: Protect Leah from any serious injuries during the impending attack.
Mission Completion Time: Two hours
Mission Completion Reward: Random
Mission Failure Penalty: Transform into a weak submissive beast-eared loli for three days】

In the original story, Leah came to this hospital to visit her family, but she happened to encounter the Basileus mercenaries hired to assassinate her grandfather, and she lost her legs due to a bomb blast—so in the following plot, this arrogant young lady had to rely on a wheelchair. Well, it’s one of those high-tech wheelchairs…

But now with Nancy, will her fate change?

…………

On the rooftop, Nancy looked at the mission just issued by Candy and frowned, especially when she saw that the reward for the mission was random.

“Candy, what’s the deal? Can’t you give me some tangible rewards?” Nancy asked coldly.

This thing, which may or may not be the system, always issues missions with random rewards, and each time the rewards seem to be not good— the first time was fixing the original owner’s voice, the second time was a detector device to locate the heroine. Nancy couldn’t figure out what she could do with such things. Track the heroine? That would be seen as being a stalker, right?

And what’s with the punishment for failing the task? Turning her into a weak submissive beast-eared loli? What good does that do for Candy? This is her own body!

As Nancy thought about it, her gaze gradually became strange. Could it be… this little girl actually has some weird Windows system? Wanting to see her own body turn into a weak submissive beast-eared loli or something…

Candy naturally heard Nancy’s complaints, but she didn’t have a solution either: “You’re currently using my body, so naturally, I want to give you some powerful props, preferably something that can knock Su Xiaoyu out with one punch. But the fact is, I can’t do that. These task missions are predetermined, and I passively accept them.”

“And this is my own body. How could I possibly like seeing myself turn into a weak submissive loli?”

Hearing Candy’s tone, which didn’t sound insincere, Nancy could only suppress her dissatisfaction and focus on lifting the sniper rifle.

Anyway, no matter what, the mission had to be completed. Although this wasn’t her body, Nancy didn’t want to become a weak submissive beast-eared loli…

………………

Despite the lively atmosphere in Tianzhou City at night, the medical center was quiet early on. After all, this was the Longqian Group’s exclusive hospital for family members, so there weren’t many people here usually. Now, with the former chairman of the group moving in, it was even more heavily guarded.

The arrival of night made the security guards of the Longqian Group involuntarily relax their vigilance. After all, this was the city center of Tianzhou, and nothing could possibly happen here. This wasn’t like the chaotic Philo District, which was filled with drone networks and police stations. If anything happened, there would be a large number of company armed forces and urban police personnel arriving immediately.

But these company guards, who were used to a life of ease, couldn’t possibly imagine that today not only someone wanted to cause trouble, but they were also aiming to assassinate the former chairman of the Longqian Group, a huge event. Dozens of elite mercenaries from Basileus were already lurking in the shadows…

One second…
Two seconds…

Nancy held the sniper rifle, watching the holographic stopwatch next to the scope, calculating the precise timing of the mercenaries’ actions.

Fifteen seconds…
Sixteen seconds…!

At the moment the stopwatch cleared, from the top of the building, Nancy clearly saw a magnificent “firework” bloom in the distance of Tianzhou City, followed by one-third of the main city area plunging into darkness.

“What’s going on? Is the City Hall under attack?”
“No… Isn’t that the unmanned drone network hub next to City Hall?!”
“Call the police immediately!!”
“……”

Actually, there was no need for eager citizens to call the police. With such an important place as City Hall under attack, various forces in the vicinity had already rushed over at the first moment.

However, the power couldn’t be restored for a while, so the true purpose of these mercenaries was to wait for the backup power to be activated in the medical center.

Realizing this, Nancy immediately raised the sniper scope and looked in a certain direction.

………………

When the power went out just now, the company guards at the medical center did raise their vigilance a little— but after finding out that the explosion had occurred at City Hall, they relaxed. This world’s Tianzhou City Council attracted a lot of hate due to the special nature of its territory and population, so they were used to occasional riots by ability users or the like.

After waiting for a while and finding that nothing had happened here, they immediately prepared to activate the backup power. After all, Tianzhou City was a highly technological city, and many places relied on electricity, such as the unmanned drone network; without electricity, they were useless.

However, at this moment, these company guards suddenly realized belatedly that there seemed to be a problem with their communication system.

“Team A? Can Team A hear me? What’s happening at the gate?”
“Our communication seems to have been intercepted. Where are the security hackers?! Repair it immediately!”
“Maybe the power outage just caused a malfunction. We… Huh?!”

Just as these guards, who had little actual combat experience, realized that something was wrong, the Basileus mercenaries had already remotely controlled the security robots on the medical center’s side using their military technology.

All these security robots were connected to the Longqian Group’s main system, and theoretically, they were difficult to control under normal circumstances— but the power outage just now caused a momentary short circuit in the robot network and the main system. However, this momentary short circuit was seized by the brilliant hackers of Basileus, who took full control of the robots.

“What’s going on…?” One guard just snapped out of the power outage, only to see the armed robots in her team suddenly activate attack mode at some point. When she wanted to warn her teammates, the robots suddenly raised their already-unlocked weapons and swiftly charged up—

“Phew—Boom!!!!!!”

…………

Medical center, 23rd floor lobby.

The sudden sound of gunfire startled Leah and Nina, who were waiting here for the steward. Then, before they could react, the robotic guard dog that was supposed to be by their side suddenly charged toward them!

At this critical moment, there was suddenly an explosion outside the window, and then the robotic guard dog seemed to have been hit by something and shattered into pieces.

“…!” At this moment, some of the security guards on the side finally realized what had happened. The security team leader, who had a little combat experience, immediately judged that their robots had been remotely controlled.

And the attack that just destroyed the robotic guard dog…

It was a sniper rifle!

The captain, who had reacted, didn’t dare to delay, immediately leading the still-shocked young lady Leah and Nina towards the safe passage.

Meanwhile, Nancy, who had just fired the shot from the high-rise in the distance, frowned when she saw this scene: “Why is Nina here?”
