Upon turning around, Qin Lang was truly scared by the person who had appeared behind him unexpectedly.

Fortunately, his mental state was always on high alert under such circumstances. Upon seeing the other's attire, he quickly signaled Dan Bao and Spicy not to act rashly.

It was a woman in her twenties, holding a weapon similar to a gun in her hand, pointing at him.

The exclusive insignia of the Spirit Chef Association on her chest allowed Qin Lang to quickly identify her identity.

She was from the Miredi City Spirit Chef Association.

“I came in by mistake, there's been a misunderstanding.” Qin Lang honestly raised both hands, complaining internally that he had indeed stepped into a trap.

Seeing Qin Lang's cooperation, the woman's stern face relaxed slightly, but she did not lower the weapon pointed at him.

“I am Pei Yue from the Public Security Management Department of the Miredi City Spirit Chef Association.” The woman took out her credentials and began the routine questioning, “What's your name? Are you a local resident of Miredi City? Why are you here?”

Only after Qin Lang explained his circumstances, his reason for being here, and confirmed his identity with the Spirit Chef Badge, did Pei Yue slowly lower her weapon.

“Can I leave now?” Seeing Pei Yue putting down her weapon, Qin Lang relaxed and quickly made his request.

“I'm sorry, not yet,” Pei Yue shook her head, “You have been inadvertently caught up in an unusual incident and cannot leave for now.”

“Huh?” Qin Lang showed a helpless expression, “I haven't done anything.”

Except for absorbing a bit of unowned Star Power.

He muttered to himself in his heart.

“Your Food Spirits have absorbed the Unowned Star Power around here, haven't they?” Pei Yue glanced at the two Food Spirits beside Qin Lang, “There is a problem with this Unowned Star Power.”

“What?” Qin Lang's expression instantly became serious.

How could Star Power have a problem?

And Dan Bao and Spicy who absorbed the Star Power…

He nervously monitored the condition of the two little ones, but found no anomalies.

“The more Star Power here is absorbed, the more agitated and irrational the Food Spirit becomes,” Pei Yue explained, “Because this Star Power was not normally created, the specific situation is still under investigation.”

“In the last two days, there have been several incidents of Food Spirits losing their senses, all related to this. Your Food Spirits have not absorbed much and have not lost their senses for the moment, but there is still potential danger.”

You must have noticed that there are no other people nearby,” Pei Yue gestured to the surroundings, “The residents here have been temporarily relocated elsewhere, and because there are not enough people, the blockade is not yet fully implemented.”

“Lettingyou enter here, we also bear some responsibility, but I'm sorry, for the time being, you can't leave.”

Qin Lang fell silent.

Now even if he was allowed to leave, he wouldn't leave.

It was clear from her words that absorbing this Unowned Star Power had potential danger.

“May I ask, does the Association have a way to solve this potential danger?” Qin Lang began to ask seriously.

Not yet, because such a situation has never occurred in Miredi City before,” Pei Yue shook her head.

Before Qin Lang could lose hope, Pei Yue's next words gave him hope.

However, the Association has now sent professionals to examine the Food Spirits who have lost their senses and have a certain treatment plan,” Pei Yue paused, “If the reason for this Unowned Star Power is found, it should be able to be resolved.”

“And my colleagues and I have entered this area for this mission.”

“As long as there is a solution, it would be good.” Qin Lang breathed a small sigh of relief.

He wouldn't want any danger for Dan Bao and Spicy.

According to the other party's words, as long as the Public Security Management Department found the reason for the Unowned Star Power, they could find a treatment method by tracing back.

All he needed to do was wait.

No, perhaps he could be more proactive.

“Miss Pei Yue, is there anything I can do?” Qin Lang asked seriously.

Since he couldn't leave at the moment, helping the Association to find the root of the problem sooner would allow Dan Bao and Spicy to be treated sooner, and he could leave here earlier.

Thinking of his earlier impulsiveness due to curiosity, Qin Lang deeply regretted it.

Curiosity kills.

“You?” Pei Yue looked at Qin Lang with surprise.

Such abnormal issues were typically handled by members of the Spirit Chef Association.

However, thinking about it, Pei Yue felt a slight sense of interest.

She had just used her portable device to check the past record of this Spirit Chef named Qin Lang who stood in front of her. There was no doubt about him, and he was also a young genius Spirit Chef.

The strength of two Two-star Food Spirits was not weak, and they could actually offer a great help during the investigation process.

Most importantly, the scope of this unusual incident was a bit broad, and the manpower of the Spirit Chef Association was indeed stretched thin.

Otherwise, there wouldn't have been a loophole in the blockade allowing Qin Lang to mistakenly enter.

“Alright then, I'll trouble you,” Pei Yue put away her weapon and took out two shining crystal stones to hand to Qin Lang, “These are repelling stones temporarily made by the Association. Wear them and your Food Spirits won't continue to absorb Star Power.”

Ojn Lang nodded, took the crystal stones, and put them on the two little elixirs.

The Unowned Star Power was automatically repelled within a certain range around the crystal stones, keeping Dan Bao and Spicy in an environment where they could not touch the Star Power.

“Just follow me in the investigation. An extra person might help find clues faster.” Pei Yue's expression completely softened. She smiled at Qin Lang, took the lead in moving towards the direction with more dense Star Power, “I'll tell you about the situation on the way.”

“Alright.” Qin Lang followed closely behind.

The two of them moved deeper, engaging in conversation as they went.

Soon, Qin Lang came to understand the specific details of this unusual incident.

Two days ago, a Spirit Chef's Food Spirit began to become frenzied and irrational, turning to the Spirit Chef Association for help.

At that time, the Spirit Chef Association hadn't discovered the problem with the Unowned Star Power and assumed it was an issue with the Spirit Chef's Food Spirit itself. They tried various treatments, but none were very effective.

Subsequently, several more Spirit Chef's Food Spirits exhibited similar symptoms, and none could be cured, causing the Association to take the matter more seriously.

The development of the situation was faster than the Association's response. Almost at the same time as the Association was dispatched, the problematic Unowned Star Power erupted.

In a hurry, the Spirit Chef Association first evacuated the public and began to block the city area covered by the Star Power.

Afterwards, Qin Lang mistakenly entered the uncompletely blocked city area and met Pei Yue.

“The Star Power should be spreading from a source to the surroundings, the problem must be at the center of the sealed area,” Qin Lang concluded quickly.

“Yes,” Pei Yue nodded, “My colleagues and I started at different points from the edge and will meet again in the center.”

“That's the abandoned Star River Manufacturing Factory.”
