was the bedrock pillar of the city's existence.

Their very presence was a deterrent in itself.

With them around, the people's hearts could be at ease.

"If we casually call them out for something like this, then where would the dignity of our Beast Tamer Bureau stand!"

He Dongsheng said coldly.

If Diamond-rank Beast Tamers were casually deployed,

it might cause an uproar.

It might even make the public panic.

"Xiao He, this is where you're wrong!"

"Such a major incident!"

"What face are you still worrying about now?"

Just at that moment!

An aged voice came from outside.

Then!

An old man with a white beard walked in from inside.

His head was full of white hair; even his beard and eyebrows were white.

But he was full of vigor, not looking the least bit aged.

"Dozens of children have already disappeared!"

"Isn't this kind of thing a major incident?"

"Have you gotten your priorities mixed up?"

"The mission of our Beast Tamer Bureau is to protect the people!"

"To protect the future of Zichuan City!"

"And children are the future!"

"With so many children disappearing, what face are you still worried about?"

"You're being far too muddled!"

The aged elder's face was utterly stern.

He even looked at He Dongsheng with an expression of frustrated disappointment.

Instantly!

He Dongsheng became meek and respectful, like a primary school student who had done wrong.

He didn't dare make a peep.
