Gaowu invasion, I can see the future

102: The manic blood demon, the civil war between the two races!“Team Leader Li, what case is my son involved in? Will he be alright?”

“Mr. Wu, as you know, sometimes knowing too much can make it harder to find peace.”

“But… but he’s my son. As his father, I must understand what happened.”

Since he had paid, Li Yunbin did not hide anything and revealed some information about the Black Blood Pregnant Woman Case.

Hearing about such strange symptoms and the involvement of an evil god, Wu Yuming nearly had a heart attack.

He only breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that some investigators had the ability to control the condition after its onset.

However, Li Yunbin continued, “Currently, those who can control the condition are all female pregnant women, and the cost of healing is the death of the fetus.”

“As for males, there are only three known cases, and they all suddenly turned into monsters, like zombies.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Yuming instantly became agitated.

“Then… what should we do?”

“We don’t have a good solution right now. We can only see if this case can uncover more clues later.”

Seeing this, Wu Yuming knew that further questioning was useless and could only go visit his useless son.

Around 11:30 PM.

Bai Yu and several team members were Cultivating in the training room.

After Li Yunbin finished his discussion with Wu Yuming, he came to the training room.

Everyone’s enthusiasm for Cultivating has indeed increased significantly recently!

Bai Yu, who was currently injured, had a slow Great Circulation of the Heavens. After training for a while, he rested on the side.

Seeing Li Yunbin arrive, Bai Yu curiously asked, “Captain, what’s the situation at Yun Lake now?”

He was actually very curious about how things would develop after the Catfish Demon appeared.

If it caused panic, that wouldn’t be good!

The higher-ups would really call him in for a talk.

West Lake Dragon Well, or Da Hong Pao?

“Don’t worry, the situation is still very stable. Others have already begun to experience it. Currently, about two hundred people have come into contact with the Catfish Demon, and the situation is good. This matter should gradually stabilize. However, many more people will definitely learn about the transcendent world.”

Hearing this, Bai Yu excitedly stretched.

The key point was that this Catfish Demon was now his subordinate.

How cool would it be when he rode the Catfish Demon’s head alone!!!

Thinking this, he suddenly wanted to create a Spirit Beast collection catalog.

There must be a large number of Spirit Beasts in the ocean, all prostrate at my feet!

Just as he was fantasizing, Zhao Bin, who was resting beside him, seemed to have seen some information and said, “Captain, Professor Kong’s obituary has been released.”

Everyone’s joyful mood instantly sobered up.

No matter what, when discussing such matters, one must always be serious and never frivolous.

Everyone quickly looked at the obituary published by the Tianhai City News Headquarters.

“The director of the Tianhai City Research Institute, and honorary recipient of the National Transcendent Domain Progress Award—Professor Kong Shen, unfortunately died at 9:39 PM on July 31, 2037, after encountering a terrorist attack at Mote Manor in the northeastern suburbs of Tianhai City.”

“Regarding this attack,…”

It mainly introduced Professor Kong Shen’s various honors, which were described rather vaguely, only stating his immense contributions to the administrative district.

Secondly, changing the alien attack to foreign terrorists was a common script for various administrative districts.

Foreign terrorists had been blamed for so much that many citizens generally believed that after humanity’s high development, it fell into prolonged internal strife.

A world war might break out again!

This was not wrong; the war with the alien races was indeed of a higher level than a world war.

Hopefully, the warlike brothers can handle this.

After reading it, Li Yunbin said, “The funeral is set for the day after tomorrow, August 3rd, at nine in the morning. Although it’s a bit rushed this time, the scale will not be small. It’s mainly a response to the auction attack.”

“Afterward, it’s estimated that this incident will be used to conduct a major purge of various alien forces throughout Tianhai City, to clean up the city.”

The previous clear-out operation mainly targeted the Fishmen and did not launch attacks against all major alien races, mainly because their strength was not strong enough.

But this attack incident, they instead heavily injured the leaders of many alien races! Such a great opportunity, naturally, could not be missed.

Bai Yu rubbed his fists and said, “Damn it! Although my injuries haven’t healed, I can still suppress them with one hand!”

“You brat, you should still focus on how to deal with this Black Blood Case.”

“Indeed! Then I’ll suppress this little evil god with my other hand.”

Liu Feifei patted Bai Yu’s head and said, “Alright! All talk! Beat me first before you boast.”

“Heh~ If my body wasn’t injured, I could handle you with one finger.”

“Hmph! Boasting! I don’t believe it.”

The group then headed to the cafeteria, and on the way, Li Yunbin received a message.

“Captain, what’s up? Is it the Black Blood Case?”

“It’s not the Black Blood Case. We’ll talk about the details during dinner.”

“Okay.”

Inside the cafeteria.

Everyone had gotten their food.

Li Yunbin then spoke, “That was a message from the interrogation room. Zhao Yu tried to commit suicide by banging his head against the chains. And what he said greatly affected the mental state of the other members.”

Hearing this, everyone didn’t know what to say.

They certainly believed Bai Yu when he said Zhao Yu was a traitor.

But just keeping him locked up without dealing with him, and now this suicide attempt, was very troublesome.

Bai Yu, hearing this, let out a ’chuckle’.

“I was originally worried if this kind of monster would have some special means to escape. Now with this commotion, isn’t it obviously the Blood Demon’s main body? Our investigators’ psychological quality shouldn’t be that poor, right? They can’t even cooperate for a day?”

“Hmm, that’s what I mean too. But, when do you plan to deal with it?”

“If all goes well, this afternoon.”

“Alright. Then I’ll go stabilize the team members’ morale and interrogate him at the same time?”

“Any interrogation is fine. Let him proudly think we have no way to deal with him, that’s even better!”

After a brief chat, the leaders of the Eighth Team and Ninth Team came over to summarize recent events.

They mainly wanted to understand the inside story of yesterday’s auction battle.

Although they had learned some from other channels, it was not as reliable as asking eyewitnesses.

Li Yunbin naturally blocked out the part where Bai Yu displayed astonishing strength.

After chatting, they started discussing cases again.

This time, when the topic turned to cases, Jiang Yan appeared very relaxed. She first asked, “Didn’t you previously handle a sewer body case? And three nights ago, you handled a murder case related to Dark creatures in Yun Lake Garden Community?”

“Yes, didn’t the case get transferred to your team after it was found to be related to Lizardmen?”

Hearing this question, Jiang Yan replied with a hint of excitement, “That sewer body was killed by a rat-like Dark creature. The deceased in Yun Lake Garden Community was also a Lizardman!”

“We have handled a total of six similar cases.”

“Last night, we even witnessed a battle between a group of rat-like Dark creatures and four Lizardmen!”

“From the current situation, it seems these two major alien races have started fighting. The ones who initiated the war should be the Dark creatures, but we don’t know what their objective is.”

Jiang Yan was quite excited; the internal conflict between the two races reduced a lot of pressure on her! It also increased her performance, so now she could finally relax a bit.

Bai Yu listened with interest.

Perhaps there was a big secret behind it.

In the afternoon, Bai Yu started a thirty-kilometer run to relax his muscles and bones.

After completing the task, he returned to his room.

He slightly circulated the Great Circulation of the Heavens and found that it now took about half an hour to complete one circulation.

But being able to complete a circulation meant that his body had recovered a little.

“As expected of a true man! My body is strong! The recovery speed is fast. It should be fully recovered in ten days to half a month, right?”

“Time to make talismans!”

After a quick wash, Bai Yu picked up the ink abyss divine pen.

Looking at the brush, Bai Yu muttered, “Speaking of which, besides its talisman-making function, this brush also has a second function.”

“TheConformist can comprehend special spiritual patterns from it. After drawing them in the air, they can have different effects, such as summoning Spirit Sparrows.”

“This is a combat function! It’s just that I haven’t comprehended any special spiritual patterns yet.”

“Never mind, let’s make magic scrolls first.”

With that, Bai Yu took out the beast skin paper he had exchanged from the warehouse, along with various Materials.

The cost of these magic scrolls was not low; they required the inscription of an Intermediate inscription, and the Material cost was around 300 to 400 federal currency!

If the success rate was 5%, it might require at least six thousand contribution points, which is equivalent to six hundred thousand federal currency. It was simply too expensive!

If he were to improve his proficiency, the process would burn at least tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, of federal currency.

From this perspective, it was clear how much money talisman-making consumed.

Taking a deep breath, Bai Yu began to engrave seriously.

After three consecutive failures, Bai Yu felt that it was better to first use the cheaper talisman paper made from spiritual wood to test the drawing of Intermediate inscriptions.

Talisman-making was sometimes very addictive; if he couldn’t produce one, he always felt a blockage in his heart!

He worked for over six hours straight, until past eight in the evening.

Bai Yu’s hand was trembling a bit, but this current one was the best he had drawn so far. And he was only a few strokes away from finishing!

He felt a bit nervous at this moment.

When he tightly gripped the talisman brush and finished the last stroke, Bai Yu felt completely exhausted.

“Phew~”

After drawing, he lay back, feeling completely relaxed.

He felt much lighter overall.

“I’ll leave this magic scroll technique to professors like Professor Wang Wen. I’m not doing it anymore! The difficulty is simply too high... and it’s too expensive.”

“The main point is, the range of effect isn’t large, mainly used to deal with Blood Demons. I rarely encounter such things. But it must be very useful to the higher-ups!”

Looking at the 43 scrapped talisman papers and 9 magic scroll beast skin papers, his heart bled.

This wave cost him four to five thousand contribution points.

He had less than two thousand contribution points left; he was poor!

However, looking at the completed magic scroll, Bai Yu was still extremely excited.

The pleasure of successfully creating something with his own hands was indescribable!

He glanced at the time.

20:33

“It’s already this late! The captain must be getting anxious, right?”
