Gaowu invasion, I can see the future

48: Thunder gun test, there are early signsLeaving the city, they entered the mountain forest area.

Bai Yu constantly paid attention to the situation in this area, even worrying that the line of fate would change, leading to a battle breaking out on the way there.

Fortunately, no accidents occurred when passing through the Nine Snake Bend area.

The group successfully arrived at the Thunder Laboratory in the mountains.

This laboratory consisted mainly of two large buildings, with the remaining vast area enclosed by barbed wire, which was clearly a place for lightning attraction and control.

He looked at the thick dark clouds in the sky.

Professor Wang Wen noticed Bai Yu’s gaze and smiled, “Your luck is good. Today’s thunderclouds are thick, and the natural lightning-attribute spiritual energy in the air is abundant.”

After learning some basic runic knowledge from Bai Yu, he had a much-improved opinion of Bai Yu and became much more enthusiastic.

Bai Yu thought for a moment and asked, “By the way, who stays in such an isolated laboratory?”

“Haha~ An old friend of mine. His own strength has reached the Ling Yuan Realm. He also specializes in lightning-element techniques. Come on, I’ll take you to meet him!”

With that, Professor Wang Wen walked through the main gate, where many charred patches could be clearly seen on the ground.

Looking from a distance, a dozen people were already standing at the entrance of the building.

A relatively strong and somewhat chubby middle-aged man, Feng Yihua, walked towards them, looked at Professor Wang Wen, and said, “You old fellow! Aren’t you researching your spiritual plants, medicines, and dietary supplements? What made you think of coming to my place?”

“It’s just that you’ve been staying in this desolate wilderness for several months without returning, so I was worried something might have happened, and came to check. If you haven’t been electrocuted yet, consider it me coming to relieve your loneliness.”

“Heh~! You don’t have that much leisure. Tell me, what do you plan to do by borrowing my laboratory?”

“Hey, I’m here to chat and drink with you this time, not to talk about business.”

As he spoke, Professor Wang Wen looked behind him.

His few students immediately brought out plates of fresh spiritual fruits, which looked quite valuable.

Feng Yihua looked at them; one purple spiritual fruit was a third-tier Heaven And Earth Treasure of the lightning attribute.

This level of Heaven And Earth Treasure is not mass-produced currently, making its value extremely high.

Such a generous gesture!

“Hahaha~ Why be so polite? Please come inside.”

Seeing that the two were about to chat for a while, Bai Yu was not in a hurry.

He hoped to spend more time to understand who exactly was here and who might have leaked the information.

’That investigation report couldn’t find anything, so it will definitely be difficult for me to find out.’

’But... I have a Golden Finger!’

He would pretend to study for a while, and after getting the information tomorrow, he would report it to his superiors.

There were two main buildings in total, one for office and living, and one for special equipment.

Inside the office building.

Professor Professor Wang Wen brought many good things, and they immediately started lunch.

Everyone ate heartily.

Bai Yu, meanwhile, calculated the personnel situation present.

On Professor Professor Wang Wen’s side, there were three associate professors, one Ling Yuan Realm expert, and ten guard members.

On Professor Feng Yihua’s side, there were over thirty researchers and fifty guard members, most of whom specialized in lightning-element Cultivation.

The Spiritual Qi concentration in the wild areas was already one to two times higher than in the city, not to mention the lightning-guiding facilities here.

So, this group of guard members staying here would not waste time; instead, they had entered a Cultivation Holy Land, and their spiritual power levels were not low.

The luncheon lasted for nearly an hour.

Everyone was in high spirits.

Feng Yihua even said excitedly, “Old Wang, it’s good you’re here. I’ve developed a new treasure recently, and I’d like to show it to you.”

“Oh? What treasure?”

“You’ll know right away.”

With that, Feng Yihua led Professor Wang Wen to the window.

Outside the window was a vast open space.

At this moment, a person held what looked like a silver long trident, and in front of him was a monster with blood-red skin tied to a wooden stake.

Bai Yu: A Blood Clan Modified Creature!?

Is this laboratory experimenting with these? That could indeed be the cause!

His previous thinking had always been that the enemy’s target was the thunder scepter, after all, the information he received stated that the activated thunder scepter was an item from a Level 5 treasure vault.

But now, it seemed the situation was different.

A Blood Clan Modified Creature had already appeared here.

Professor Wang Wen saw this scene and asked in confusion, “What is this for?”

“The weapon in my student’s hand, which I call the Thunder Spear, can release ultra-high voltage, large currents for a short period, capable of severely wounding most monsters below Level 10 in an instant!”

“And as for this monster, I caught it in the nearby mountains recently; it seemed to be peeking into my laboratory.”

Bai Yu listened.

Holy crap! You old man, you didn’t take this seriously!?

It made me suspect this and that before I came.

I thought some scoundrels were trying to harm me, but who knew they were targeting you and incidentally trying to eliminate me.

Hearing this, Bai Yu couldn’t help but ask, “Professor Feng, this monster should be a Blood Clan Modified Creature. If it appears near the laboratory, it still needs more attention.”

Feng Yihua was good-tempered and didn’t think it was bad for a student to suddenly interject. He glanced at Bai Yu and said, “Don’t worry! Don’t let my simple experimental ground fool you; in reality, it can unleash power beyond your imagination. Even a thousand-strong invasion byAlien can be stopped.”

“There’s also no need to worry aboutAlien attacking the base’s control building; the true control hub is underground.”

“If they really dare to come, then let them taste the power of thunder!”

From these words, one could clearly feel the confidence in his tone.

Bai Yu: ...Alright, it’s confirmed. Given Professor Feng’s arrogant personality, the Blood Clan must have been eyeing this place for a long time.

Professor Professor Wang Wen, however, smiled and said, “My student is impolite. Come, let’s continue our chat.”

“Haha, it’s fine, he must have inherited your personality.”

“...Let’s still see the effect of your Thunder Spear.”

As researchers, what they liked most was certainly the process of testing new achievements.

Below, the Thunder Spear in the student’s hand flashed with lightning, and in just five seconds, a blue bolt of thunder shot out.

“Roar~!”

The hit monster let out a painful roar, its chest charred, and its flesh showed signs of disintegration, with a piece of muscle even falling off its leg.

It looked like a cruel experiment, but no one’s expression showed any sympathy.

If they are not of our kind, their hearts must be different!

Bai Yu also silently observed the others, wondering if he could spot any issues.

After three consecutive shots, the monster completely fell silent.

Professor Wang Wen watched, and his smile disappeared.

Feng Yihua, however, became increasingly proud: “This is a Level 9 monster, and its strength is not bad, but it still easily died under my Thunder Spear.”

“Moreover, the Materials required for my Thunder Spear are not complex. If mass-produced, the manufacturing cost should be compressible to five hundred thousand federal currency, so the prospects are quite good!”

“Old Wang?”

Professor Wang Wen came back to his senses, congratulated him, but deep down, he was competing, thinking that he also needed to accelerate his research this time, he couldn’t lose!

Thinking of this, his thoughts deepened, and for a moment he forgot about Bai Yu’s matter.

It was Feng Yihua who asked, “Old Wang, we’ve eaten, and you’ve seen the things. Why don’t you tell me, what exactly did you come for this time? You’re not really just here to see me, are you?”

“Look at you, saying that. Can’t I just come to see you?”

“Alright! If that’s the case, then I’ll accompany you to walk around this area and enjoy the scenery. In the afternoon, I’ll just go back with you.”

“Go back? You’re not staying in this deep mountain anymore?”

“With this achievement, I have to go back and report it, right? And relax in the city, think about new projects, and select new Materials.”

“That’s perfect! I’ll take you to visit my laboratory.”

Bai Yu heard this in his heart, and his thoughts became clearer.

It seemed that Professor Feng planned to return to Tianhai City; this was a predetermined choice!

This attack should have been targeting Professor Feng.

Of course, if there was an inside mole, the subsequent appearance of the World Tree branch, such a treasure, might have also solidified the Blood Clan’s resolve to attack.

’I remember the tasers worn by investigators are custom-made, costing fifty thousand federal currency and up! They can only temporarily incapacitate monsters below Level 4. Sometimes the effect is even poor.’

’The Thunder Spear’s effect is much stronger, and the price is only ten times more, which is still acceptable. If equipped in bulk, ordinary people could deal with Level eight or nine monsters, how amazing is that? Indeed, technology changes fate!’

’If I had no connection with Professor Feng, with his talent and already being targeted by the Blood Clan, he would probably be in a certain death situation!’

Thinking about these things, Bai Yu also looked at the two chatting professors.

The two talked about places to relax and entertain in Tianhai City... and they got more and more excited, not knowing when they would finish.

After more than ten minutes, the two were still chatting, and Bai Yu couldn’t help but cough, interrupting, “Ahem, Professor Professor Wang Wen, about my scepter...”

Professor Wang Wen looked back at Bai Yu, thinking, ’You kid finally couldn’t hold it in, could you?’

Serves you right! I did it on purpose!

For not respecting your elders!

His lips, however, curved into a smile as he criticized, “My student here is a bit impolite, and impatient.”

“It’s alright, he learned it all from you anyway.”

Professor Professor Wang Wen’s speechless expression gave Professor Feng immense emotional satisfaction, and he was in a very good mood.

Having stayed in these deep mountains for several months, he hadn’t been this happy in a long time.

Bai Yu: Hehe~ You took advantage of me! I’m not your student.

Then, Professor Professor Wang Wen finally brought up the main topic: “I came here this time for a black scepter that my student obtained from the treasure vault. He said it needs to absorb a large amount of lightning elements to activate it.”

“Oh? Let me see it.”

Professor Feng showed a hint of interest.

Mainly, he felt that Professor Professor Wang Wen would specifically come to him for this scepter, which meant the scepter must be extremely special!
