Gaowu invasion, I can see the future

69: Hidden secrets, meeting acquaintances at the closing of futuresQingyun River, Yun Lake, Qing Lake.

Quite a few lurking Fishmen surfaced.

Didn’t Priestess adult order them to stand by? To be ready to attack the Human Race at any moment.

The rain stopped? What’s the point of playing now!

Everyone go home.

It’s just that the way the rain stopped, it looks strange no matter how you look at it.

A certain dark corner.

Watching the rain suddenly stop in the sky, the Priestess in the shadows involuntarily paused the grand formation beneath her feet.

Then she angrily said, ”Damn it!”

She immediately cast a spell, using the power of the divine, to begin peeking, to see who exactly stopped this great downpour.

”Hmm? Heavenly Fate’s Blessing? What kind of method is this...”

She thought calmly for a moment and felt that a powerful transcendent she didn’t know about must have appeared in Tianhai City.

If these things haven’t been investigated clearly yet...

”If we rashly perform the Tide Ritual, my race’s forces in Tianhai City will likely suffer heavy losses and will no longer be able to develop.”

These past few days, the Fishmen have suffered a great purge, so many have been annihilated, but at least the Linghai Realm existences have not been harmed.

”Tianhai City is an important stronghold for the Human Race, so its Foundation should not be easily damaged for now.”

”Hmph! Then I’ll let you off for now.”

She said that, but the more she thought about it, the angrier she got!

The main thing was that she couldn’t figure out who had predicted the Yun Lake’s treasure in advance, and now had the ability to stop this downpour.

It was too bizarre! She hadn’t found anything at all.

Someone must have obscured the Heavenly Secrets.

”For now, I don’t know who the Human Race powerhouse interfering in this matter is, so stopping the operation is fine!”

All the events that happened today directly interrupted the Fishmen’s further plans.

On the surface, it just looked like a rain stopped, but the Investigation Bureau’s higher-ups and the foreign races had a lot more to consider for the future.

Regarding the accumulated rainwater, Tianhai City’s drainage department also reacted quickly, beginning to process it rapidly and completing the road clearing work in a short time.

Dinner time.

Cafeteria.

Li Yunbin seemed to still be Cultivating and did not show up.

Bai Yu walked towards Liu Feifei and the others, but saw that all the team members were looking at him.

”What’s wrong? Did I become even more handsome?”

Liu Feifei snorted, ”Hmph! Your skin is quite thick, you’re really pretty.”

”Come on, eat well.”

After dinner, everyone did not go on patrol; they at least needed to avoid the limelight.

On the way back to their residence, Liu Feifei eagerly asked, ”Did Little White Jiao make the rain stop?”

”Yes.”

”Then if I go to your room, can I call her out?”

”I’ll ask her.”

Little White Jiao’s voice carried a hint of joy: ”Okay~”

Bai Yu, however, relayed: ”She said she wants to sleep.”

”Ah? Alright...”

Little White Jiao, on the other hand, was puzzled, with a hint of slight Life Qi, and asked: ”Why did you lie to this older sister?”

’Teasing her, it’s fun... Haha.’

”Hmph! Bad person!”

Afterward, Bai Yu didn’t hide it, brought everyone back to the room, and also released the White Dragon.

With no patrol missions, everyone gathered together to look at the White Dragon, which was quite interesting.

The small White Dragon looked very cute, and her voice was also like a cute little girl, giving off a feeling of being everyone’s pampered pet.

Everyone also communicated with the White Dragon, transmitting their worldview, which saved Bai Yu from shouting himself hoarse.

After everyone left, Bai Yu began to record the two pieces of intelligence he obtained today.

When he saw the information on the third-stage blood clan modifier, Bai Yu also considered whether to tell the others in Seventh Team and arrest him on the spot.

Or, should he let this guy buy it, take a picture of his appearance, hand it over to the Investigation Bureau, and then track his movements to see if he could follow the clues and catch a big fish.

Perhaps he could unearth a big fish like a new sin blood potion researcher!

”Oh, right, White Spirit, what’s your strength?”

White Spirit was the name everyone decided on after discussing with the White Dragon that evening.

”I should be at the Middle Stage of the Third Realm now.”

”A bit weak, huh.”

”Hmph! You’re only at the Qi Gathering Realm, a nobody.”

Bai Yu: ...Damn it, that’s a word Liu Feifei just said, and she already learned it!

”Alright, Ling Yuan Realm is pretty strong too.”

Actually, Bai Yu also wanted to ask if the river-jumping case was done by Little White Jiao.

But if it really was related, he felt the situation might be a bit awkward.

He’d just have to see if the river-jumping case would reappear later.

Since there was nothing to do today, Bai Yu simply recorded what he needed to do tomorrow: the futures trade needed to be settled. Go to the antique street early to find the ink abyss divine pen.

Then he began to Cultivate and fell into a deep sleep.

Before six o’clock.

Bai Yu woke up.

A crisp voice rang out: ”Good morning~”

Bai Yu stretched, and hearing this cute voice, he unconsciously smiled: ”Good morning! White Spirit.”

He immediately revealed his intelligence panel; the jiaolong pearl in his Soul Sea certainly couldn’t be avoided.

[Intelligence One (Gray)

Keywords: Wang Haobin

Required Intelligence Value: 1]

[Intelligence Two (White)

Keywords: Wang Mengmeng

Required Intelligence Value: 5]

[Intelligence Three (Green)

Keywords: Sky Thunder Body Tempering Method

Required Intelligence Value: 20]

[Intelligence Four (Green)

Keywords: Fishman Warlock

Required Intelligence Value: 20]

Bai Yu quickly scanned the keywords.

This Intelligence One is too lame, isn’t it?

Moreover, this guy is his roommate, and he doesn’t even know what kind of underwear he wears.

The key point is that this guy has been back for a week and hasn’t returned to the dorm, and his girlfriend also returned to school, and the two walked out of the school gate together.

Anyone can guess what they’re doing! Rolling in bed!

Meow meow meow! Forgetting friends for love.

”No need to waste even one intelligence value.”

”Hmm? What is Big Brother Bai Yu saying?”

This made Bai Yu confused, and he couldn’t help but ask, ”Can’t you see?”

”See... what?”

Bai Yu’s eyes darted around; he had indeed never dared to reveal his Golden Finger in front of others.

So no one else could see it!

He then said, ”I’m looking at something special. This matter, only you and I can know, and you cannot tell anyone else.”

White Spirit readily agreed: ”Okay...”

Only her tone carried a hint of regret; she couldn’t see it.

After excluding the first one, Bai Yu immediately looked at the second piece of intelligence.

What was somewhat confusing was that he had never heard of this person at all!

She looks like a girl...

Will I meet her today?

Then he’d wait until he met her to decide.

The latter two pieces of intelligence, one was Sky Thunder Body Tempering Method, which looked like it was for improving strength! He definitely had to exchange for this one.

As for the Fishman Warlock, he’d see.

His current main objective was to catch the blood clan and break the Blood Pool case mentioned in the intelligence!

The Fishmen had already been severely damaged, so he didn’t need to spend a full 20 intelligence points just to catch a Ling Yuan Realm level character.

After considering, Bai Yu began today’s training.

After quickly gaining thirty points, Bai Yu was not in a hurry to exchange for the information on Sky Thunder Body Tempering Method.

There was no need to rush this; he would consider whether to exchange it after seeing what happened today.

What if this Fishman Warlock was targeting him today? Then he would definitely have to choose that intelligence!

Nine in the morning.

Bai Yu greeted the others in his team and then left, planning to settle the exchange’s contract and then go get the ink abyss divine pen.

Although the others were worried, they also knew that Bai Yu’s ability was to divine good and bad fortune, and now he also had a Dragon accompanying him, so his safety was somewhat guaranteed. Therefore, they did not try to dissuade him.

By the time they arrived by taxi, the exchange had also opened.

Before Bai Yu came, he had also sent a message to the trader, Xiao Chen.

And Xiao Chen’s attitude was much more enthusiastic!

After all, based on the soybean futures Bai Yu bought, his assets had directly increased by more than five times!

He walked into the building and scanned around.

There were quite a lot of people!

Bai Yu quickly found the trader, Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen also saw Bai Yu approaching, enthusiastically stood up, and said, ”Haha~ Mr. Bai is here. Your soybean futures contract will be settled today. I am currently processing it, it will take about a few minutes.”

”Okay.”

The processing wasn’t particularly troublesome, and the trader, Xiao Chen, also took this opportunity to ask, ”Mr. Bai, do you want to withdraw this money, or do you want to keep it in the account to buy other futures?”

Before Bai Yu came, he had also reviewed the information on oil futures.

[2037, July 29th, multiple refineries in the Seventeenth Administrative District exploded.

Within a week, the international crude oil futures price surged from 482.5 federal currency/barrel to 553 federal currency/barrel.]

The increase was only 14.6%, which was just a doubling of assets, not enough for a huge profit.

”Emm, I’ll go look at the trend charts of various futures first.”

”Okay, Mr. Bai.”

Bai Yu looking at the futures trend charts was just for show. After about twenty minutes, he returned to Xiao Chen.

The settlement price was 3.54 federal currency per catty. Excluding the 200,000 deposit placed there, Bai Yu’s actual profit was 1.088 million.

He had a feeling that making money was really easy!

The trader, Xiao Chen, also said, ”Mr. Bai, the contract has been processed.”

”Okay, then take one million from the account to purchase oil futures.”

”Oil?”

Xiao Chen’s tone was a bit puzzled.

Commodities like oil and gold, under stable world order, are difficult to fluctuate greatly.

Unlike things like soybeans, which are controlled by some consortiums working together, allowing them to regulate prices.

Given the current situation, oil prices are fluctuating curves, not very profitable.

It’s possible that a drop could lead to a forced liquidation.

But after thinking about it, Bai Yu looked young and didn’t have much financial knowledge. Buying soybean futures might have been good luck.

Now that he had one million in funds, even small fluctuations could earn him a lot, so there was no need for aggressive investments.

And he was just a trader, so he naturally wouldn’t say too much; he would just operate honestly.

Next was the operation process, but while Bai Yu was waiting, someone walked towards Xiao Chen.

At first, Bai Yu didn’t pay attention, and the person didn’t clearly see Bai Yu either.

He just walked over to the trader, his expression calm, and said, ”Xiao Chen, deposit one million.”

He hadn’t finished speaking when he suddenly noticed Bai Yu, paused, then smiled and said, ”Student Bai Yu, why are you here?”

Bai Yu looked at the person, also a bit surprised: ”Xu Deputy Director!”

Good news: P got a strong recommendation for the new book, the collection effect is slightly stronger than Sanjiang, and it will be released next Monday, which means it’s a week early.

Important things said three times: It’s going to be released next Monday! It’s going to be released next Monday! It’s going to be released next Monday!

There’s actually a lot I want to say about this book, but after thinking about it, I’ll put more content in the releaseTestimonials.

Let’s briefly talk about the most important update issue for the release, a little hint, the draft... 1.4 million words.

Don’t look at the large draft, but it’s consumed quickly. The book I wrote last June reached 1.3 million words, but in reality, I used up the draft at 600,000 words, and then it became a bit unstable. But that book was a Chinese sentimentality style, similar to books like ’Contract Ancestor’ from the same period, belonging to the extremely satisfying but bound to collapse type.

During the new book period, some plot closures take tens of thousands of words, making it difficult for everyone to follow, but upon release, it will definitely be much better! The first day of release will be 25,000 words, the second day 20,000 words, and then maintain 10,000 words daily, with irregular explosive updates (specific additional updates will be discussed upon release).

I must ensure I have 50,000 to 100,000 words in draft. Because for this book, everyone should understand that the closure of each long-term intelligence is not arbitrary. It’s something I write later and then go back to refine, so please don’t rush me to empty my draft. I must ensure I have a draft so I can write with peace of mind.

Finally, one last thing, due to the author industry’s addiction to dropping books, everyone’s trust may have greatly decreased. But I truly feel like I’ve just comprehended the Dao. For the past four years, I’ve written for love, even when earning four yuan an hour, and I’ve written millions of words. For this book, I want to challenge myself. And I’m still waiting for LV5 to gather everyone into the group and make a grand plan for the next book!
