Wen Wen frowned, "The Silent Abyss?"
The Night Knight nodded, "That's right. Hidden deep underground, the Silent Abyss. There is no sound, no life, no direction, no light, only boundless darkness!"
"Many underground caves across the globe have passages to the Silent Abyss. These passages change randomly, and even we cannot monitor them all."
"Moreover, the Silent Abyss is very dangerous. Even powerful individuals like you and I can get lost inside, and then somehow emerge from an exit."

Wen Wen asked curiously, "Since the Silent Abyss is so terrifying, why did the secret organization alliance choose to hold their meeting there?"
The Night Knight explained, "Sometimes, unstable bubbles are produced within the Silent Abyss. These bubbles are normal spaces, and with specific manipulation, one can enter them."
"However, it is like searching for a needle in a haystack to find which bubble they have entered through other means. Therefore, we can only watch them hold their meeting."
"Fortunately, these bubbles do not exist for long, so there is no need to worry about any secret organization using the Silent Abyss as their base."
"According to my intelligence, their meeting is still a month away. During this time, the council may make some significant moves. I hope you can cooperate."
Wen Wen nodded in agreement, "Of course. They are my enemies as well."
...
After leaving the Night Knight, Wen Wen returned the Illusionary Desire Robe to Mo Yadi, and then, accompanied by his two maids, Tao Qingqing and Hu Youling, took a plane piloted by San Zai to Makino City in the Sakura Region.
Sulman was going to film a movie about offense and defense here, and Wen Wen had promised him, so he was going to make a cameo appearance.
Furthermore, Wen Wen had no prior experience filming movies, so this would be a novel experience for him. Wen Wen felt this would be quite interesting.
As for the secret organization alliance, he would consider it a month later. Worrying about it now would not change the situation.
Compared to other major regions, Makino City in the Sakura Region had a very distinct characteristic. It was the sacred land of anime in the Sakura Region and its premier tourist city.
The streets were generally lined with cherry blossom trees, which were exceptionally beautiful during the flowering season. However, it was not the season for cherry blossoms, so Wen Wen could not see those beautiful sights.
The streets were filled with characteristic shops like CD stores, manga stores, figurine shops, and anime-themed food courts.
There were also young ladies in extremely revealing anime costumes who winked at passersby on the streets.
Wen Wen glanced at the buck-toothed, bow-legged girl who smiled most brightly at him, then looked at the two maids behind him. He decided to have them change into anime costumes to accompany him, which would surely be very exciting.
There was also a branch of the Foundation here, not for fighting monsters, but for doing business.
The Foundation's figurine manufacturing plant, with its low prices and excellent quality, had become the most favored contract manufacturer for anime industry companies in the Sakura Region.
And in Makino, a city that housed some of the best anime companies in the entire Sakura Region, and even the entire Federation, the Foundation's business was booming.
The prosperity of cultural products also affected the lifestyle of the locals.
In Makino City, the majority of young people on the streets could be divided into two categories: one group appeared very chuunibyou, even foolish, while the other group had vacant eyes, a somewhat gloomy demeanor, and seemed to be autistic.
These young people were the well-known Sakura otaku.
This group, along with the keyboard warriors of Huafu, were the two most active forces on the internet.
Of course, other regions also had otaku and keyboard warriors, but their groups lacked the cohesiveness of those in these two regions.
The Foundation's stronghold in Makino City was a large figurine exhibition center.
At the entrance of the exhibition center, one could see several long queues, winding like a game of Snake.
Wen Wen had often heard people say that Sakura otaku were the most queue-loving people in the world. Legend had it that when a store released new products, they could queue up at the store entrance several days in advance. This time, he finally got to witness it.
Wen Wen and his two companions entered the building through a VIP channel amidst the envious glances of the otaku. On the top floor, there was a room specifically for receiving Foundation staff, where they would stay temporarily.
The rooms here also had a distinct Sakura Region characteristic. People who liked anime might consider this place paradise, while Wen Wen merely found it gaudy.
This showed that human joys and sorrows were not the same.
"Speaking of which, this is a good place for a vacation. I remember that Ding Mingguang likes to watch Sakura Region's orthopedic anime. I can let him come here for a sponsored trip, hehehe."
Wen Wen rolled on the soft, large bed and then cast a covetous gaze at Tao Qingqing and Hu Youling.
"You... what do you want to do now?" Tao Qingqing asked with a trembling voice. Whenever Wen Wen showed such a look, nothing good would happen.
"Cough, cough, it's just a small matter, a small matter..." Wen Wen's voice was somewhat peculiar.
Half an hour later, a pile of cosplay outfits was delivered to their room.
Under Wen Wen's coercion, Tao Qingqing and Hu Youling put on a private cosplay show for Wen Wen.
Some of these outfits were not suitable for minors. A normal person would have been unable to resist, but Wen Wen truly just watched.
After watching, he picked up the box given by the Night Knight and entered the containment facility.
These boxes contained micro-cameras, which he needed to deliver to the investigators of the Wise Nation working in 'Yuliannu'.
With this new equipment, they could bring more useful knowledge to Wen Wen.
The scale of the Wise Nation investigators had now expanded to fifty people.
The first mission for the thirty new investigators was in the Xiafu Land, where they were arranged to be tested by a group of monsters. Those who were unqualified were screened out.
Therefore, the quality of this batch of people was much better than the first batch, although Zheng Xuan and Chu Cha were still the most outstanding investigators there.
After distributing equipment to these people and sending them off to execute their missions, Wen Wen began to review the results of their work during this period.
Even without micro-cameras, they could still bring back some useful things. Although they couldn't retrieve complete blueprints, just some design concepts could provide excellent inspiration for the Federation's technology.
After reviewing those materials, Wen Wen took away some knowledge unrelated to the technological side and stored it in a database.
The other part was recorded using micro-cameras and then sent to the Night Knight via another dedicated mobile phone.
