The Labyrinth of the Monsters-Chapter 66 – Welcome party

"No way! I have a foot fetish!"

Gao Yang didn't want to argue anymore. He thought for a moment and asked in a natural manner, "What about the owner of the barbecue restaurant we went to yesterday..."

"What? Are you still thinking about her?" White Rabbit interrupted.

"No, I just want to know if she's powerful."

"I don't know. I haven't fought her, but she's definitely not simple," White Rabbit said.

Gao Yang wanted to ask more, but he glanced at the driver in the front seat and White Rabbit reassured him, "Don't worry, he's on our side."

"Alright, then I'll be direct. Why doesn't the organization recruit her?" Gao Yang didn't expect to get much information anyway. After all, White Rabbit knew nothing about Liu Qingying, and he would be at a disadvantage in their future "cooperation."

"Well, she's a bit of a free spirit and not interested in joining the organization. But our organization is also not interested in her," White Rabbit explained.

"Why?"

White Rabbit sat up straight and put her hand on Gao Yang's shoulder like an elder, speaking with a serious tone, "Like I said before, once someone exposes their weakness, death is not far away."

"What does that have to do with my question?"

"Don't interrupt! But some people don't have weaknesses."

"You mean the restaurant owner?"

"Yes, and more." White Rabbit pursed her lips. "If a person doesn't have weaknesses, they definitely have ambitions. But this restaurant owner not only can't find her weaknesses, but she also hides her ambitions very well. Such a person is too dangerous and unstable. Having her join the organization would be a huge hidden danger."

"That makes sense," Gao Yang agreed.

"Right! I didn't say that, Captain did." Every time White Rabbit talked about the Captain, her eyes would become filled with admiration, like a fangirl.

"You mean the long-lost brother I was separated from?" Gao Yang joked.

"Ah, yes!"

"Can I meet the Captain later?"

"No, he's been busy lately. Everyone except him and the Vice Captain is already here," White Rabbit said, glancing out the window. "We've arrived."

Gao Yang and White Rabbit got out of the car, astonished. "Millennium Tower!"

"Yes."

Millennium Tower was built five years ago and was also known as the Leave City International Financial Center. It was located in the bustling District 1 of Da Xu, at the intersection of the pedestrian street and Furong Road. It was a large-scale building that integrated a shopping and entertainment center, high-end office buildings, hotel-style apartments, and a five-star hotel.

The main tower was 430 meters high with 90 floors, while the auxiliary tower was 305 meters high with 60 floors. It covered an area of 74,400 square meters and had a total construction area of 1 million square meters. It was also the tallest building in Leave City.

There was a small Ferris wheel on the top of Millennium Tower, rotating and shining 24 hours a day, like a colorful gear in the sky above Leave City.

The Ferris wheel had never been open to the public. It was said that the owner behind the building was a low-key and mysterious young talent, a domineering CEO who never showed his face. However, he had mentioned that he would hold his wedding on the rooftop in the future, riding the Ferris wheel with his bride.

Gao Yang took a deep breath. "Please don't tell me that this building is..."

"You're right." White Rabbit smiled faintly. "It's Wu Dahai's property."

Gao Yang was stunned on the spot!

White Rabbit put on an exquisite work badge and walked confidently into the luxurious revolving door. Two staff members immediately greeted them and led White Rabbit and Gao Yang to a private passage in the inner hall, entering a dedicated express elevator.

The elevator was attached to the spine of the building, with a sturdy one-way glass on the outside. Standing in the elevator, they could see themselves gradually rising, with the crowds, vehicles, streets, and houses becoming farther and smaller, giving them a sense of "ascending to heaven."

During the elevator ride, Gao Yang couldn't help but ask, "Is Wu Dahai really that rich?"

"Not really. His monthly salary is only six or seven thousand, and he gets a bonus of a few tens of thousands at the end of the year," White Rabbit replied casually, looking at the bustling night scene of the city outside the window. "His dad is a high school math teacher, and his mom is a full-time housewife.""Uh," Gao Yang was taken aback again, "So, Wu Dahai is a rich second generation?"

"Yes, he studied electrical engineering in college. After graduation, he didn't want to work for others, so he tinkered around and developed a super powerful material with extremely strong energy storage capacity. It's used in many fields. He applied for a patent, and now a smartphone can last three days on a single charge. Before this, it could only last half a day. Can you imagine?"

"Impressive."

"Wu Dahai's uncle runs a business selling power banks. He pulled Wu Dahai into starting a business, and in just seven or eight years, he became incredibly wealthy. However, he basically doesn't manage the company and leaves it all to his uncle. All he does every day is count money."

"Envious."

"Yes, having money is indeed very convenient. So, when I found out he was also an Awakened Being, I immediately tried to win him over." White Rabbit looked quite pleased with herself, "Who knew he would turn out to be such a lecher."

"…"

Soon, the two of them exited the elevator and entered a corridor.

At the end of the corridor was a silver-white metal door. White Rabbit came to the door, glanced at the embedded retinal scanner on the door, and verified the voice control system before they were allowed through.

The door slowly opened to reveal a magnificent large space. The decor was in a Western court style, but it was mixed with many Eastern elements, such as mahogany carved screens, ink paintings, blue and white porcelain, various antique calligraphy and paintings. There were also various limited-edition figurines, blind boxes, life-sized Gundam models... The aesthetics were truly indescribable. In short, it completely highlighted one word: extravagant!

A dazzling red carpet was laid out in front of the door, stretching all the way to the desk in the center of the room. Behind the desk was the "Iron Throne" from "The Pigeon of Ice and Fire", made from hundreds of melted iron swords. The chair was hard, cold, and sharp. Just looking at it made Gao Yang feel uncomfortable.

Wu Dahai, wearing a shit-yellow pajama set, with his hair sticking up, one leg propped up, and a raw cucumber in his mouth, was sitting on the Iron Throne, signing documents with a bored expression.

Qing Ling and Officer Huang were also there. They had just arrived and were admiring Wu Dahai's "inhumanly extravagant" office.

"Everyone's here, let's get started." Wu Dahai had just finished signing all the documents. He stood up, threw his pen, took a bite of the cucumber, and said, "GO!"
