Gaowu invasion, I can see the future

107: Five major alien god forces, glue your mouth shut!In a flash, it was August 3rd.

Early morning.

As if responding to the funeral that was to be held today, the sky was a bit gloomy.

Bai Yu and the others, including Liu Ruoxi, a total of seven people.

They set off around 7:30 AM.

The funeral was to be held at the City Hall and nearby streets in the northern part of the city.

Traffic was a bit congested when the car approached the area, with many people gathered.

Bai Yu and the others found an underground parking lot of a nearby Official building.

As soon as they got out of the car, they unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance.

”Brother Yu!”

Currently, few people call him that, and Zhang Youpeng is one of them.

Bai Yu looked over and saw Zhang Youpeng, along with Wang Long and a group of people, who had also just arrived at the parking lot.

Wang Long and Zhou Gang were considered auxiliary personnel and greeted Li Yunbin and the others.

Bai Yu, on the other hand, walked towards Zhang Youpeng, squeezed his thick muscles, and said, ”You’ve been training quite hard, your muscles look even more solid than mine.”

”Heh heh ~ They look alright, but my strength definitely can’t compare to Brother Yu’s.”

The two walked and chatted.

”By the way, recently, besides training at the gym, has anything else happened to you? Like at home, or with that kid Wang Haobin, or any major events I don’t know about.”

”Oh, there’s a lot!”

”No problem, tell me one by one.”

”Actually, last night, I followed Big Brother Wang Gang and the others and killed three Lizardmen!”

As he said this, one could feel his extreme excitement and a hint of pride.

Bai Yu was surprised and said, ”Three Lizardmen? Where did you kill them?”

”An old residential area in Yundong District, the battle was so exciting!”

”You’re really brave! You’ve only been in contact for so long, and you already dare to deal with foreign races?”

”Brother Yu is so powerful, I can’t fall too far behind either.”

”Emm, since you’ve already encountered foreign races, I’ll give you something to protect yourself.”

Saying that, Bai Yu took out five Blood Transformation Talismans and five Thunder Strike Talismans.

Talismans are very convenient to use; you just need to tear them open, let the spiritual patterns inside work, and release the energy.

”Here, this is a Thunder Strike Talisman, and that one is a Blood Transformation Talisman, used to deal with Blood Race members, you take them first.”

”This...”

”What ’this’? These things are nothing to me now; in a short while, I probably won’t even need them anymore.”

”Thank you, Brother Yu! I will definitely repay you in the future.”

”Mm.”

Bai Yu still remembered that just over half a month ago, he was still working with Zhang Youpeng at the media company.

Who knew, things change!

When he first learned about the transcendent world, Bai Yu chatted with Zhang Youpeng and even said he could help him enter the transcendent realm too.

However, given the current situation, he could indeed obtain the Ancient God Promotion items.

But now, the priority would probably be Li Yunbin and other already powerful team members.

Now, he only gave Zhang Youpeng some talismans and the like, letting him develop on his own, as a small compensation. However, there was no debt; it was just planting a cause casually. These things were indeed insignificant to him. But to Zhang Youpeng, they could absolutely be considered life-saving items! Each one cost several thousand federal currency.

”By the way, didn’t you say you had a special Bloodline? Did you test it?”

”Not tested... It just adds a bit of strength. Big Brother Wang Gang said to practice more and fight more monsters, and maybe it will be activated.”

”Then you have to work hard!”

Bai Yu was also curious if Zhang Youpeng would undergo an independent Awakening.

The independently Awakened individuals he currently knew were prominent figures like Director Yang and Kong Shen.

However, he didn’t continue thinking in that direction and instead asked, ”Speaking of which, didn’t Wang Haobin start a month-long challenge? How is it going now?”

”He’s still in the first stage, and he has completed this difficulty every day. However, there are some things to mention.”

”What is it?”

”It’s just that Wang Haobin seems to have discovered some anomalies. And Brother Yu, didn’t you go to Yun Lake the day before yesterday morning and tame a giant Catfish Demon?”

”This matter even made the news, and the news report included a picture of you, Brother Yu. Although it was taken from a distance, Wang Haobin recognized it was you.”

”Two people in the class also noticed it and asked about it.”

Bai Yu was a bit surprised to hear this, but it sounded very reasonable!

He himself had seen the news about him dealing with the Catfish; it was natural for acquaintances around him to be curious if they saw it.

What’s more, Wang Haobin was currently very curious about why he was so rich.

It was normal for him to have high attention!

It’s just, damn it, the article said he was a zookeeper, a master animal trainer, and a deep-diving enthusiast.

I have thalassophobia, and you say I’m a deep-diving enthusiast?

Master animal trainer, I admit it! Isn’t a Professor also a ’beast’?

”By the way, Wang Haobin also tentatively told me yesterday about some recent strange things, such as one night when he was taking a walk, he heard the sound of rats in the sewer, and looking through a crack, these rats seemed to be gathering and heading to a specific target location. He also mentioned some strange rumors from childhood.”

Hearing this, Bai Yu frowned slightly: rats, Dark creatures!

”Where did he see them?”

”He didn’t say, but it should be near the school. Are these rats also transcendent creatures?”

”They should be Dark creatures.”

”Then what should we do? These monsters are practically brazen; what if they rush out and kill people?”

”They are currently fighting the Lizardmen, so how to deal with Dark creatures specifically will depend on what the higher-ups decide. I have another major case on my hands.”

As they chatted, Bai Yu also recalled the Shadow Matriarch - Lilith Linna, one of the seven Odd Gods from the Tianhai Base City’s city-destroying battle.

Speaking of which, five of the seven Odd Gods’ forces have already appeared.

Blood Progenitor - Dracula Itte

God of Fishmen - Raster Bod

Lava Dragon Lord - Bill Mondes

Lord of the Ridge - Grandal Mountain Speaker

And now, the Shadow Matriarch.

’This so-called Lava Dragon Lord should be the leader of the Lizardmen.’

He had noticed this from the fire-breathing Lizardman Leader during the last fierce battle.

Claiming to be a little Dragon person, he did have some Dragon-like features.

Afterward, Bai Yu chatted with Zhang Youpeng about other things and found that this kid, Zhang Youpeng, was exposed to quite a lot of things every day.

Feedback from the Yun Lake Catfish Demon, abnormalities of some people in the school, all sorts of stories.

It was also a somewhat different perspective.

It was good to learn more.

Soon, as they approached the City Hall, they found that the entire world had become much quieter.

Although many people gathered here, including the various big figures who had gathered at the previous auction, there were two or three thousand people in total.

But everyone spoke in low voices when conversing, giving a feeling of whispering.

It was different from the noisy streets before they arrived.

When Bai Yu arrived at the scene, he looked around, trying to find Professor Wang Wen and others.

He was still quite eager to hand over the magic scrolls that restrain Blood Demon and the Blood Cleansing Powder that restrains black blood disease.

Especially the Blood Cleansing Powder; if this wasn’t dealt with quickly, he recalled those patients who died in agony, and he truly felt a bit uneasy.

The key point was that this Black Demon Ancestor was an old rival of Zhang Jiao, his current main source of power.

Using Blood Cleansing Powder to suppress his opponent and force them to reveal flaws was definitely a good thing for him!

And the greatest benefit he could currently gain from this incident was probably the evil energy behind Black Blood!

The credit earned from Blood Cleansing Powder was secondary to him.

Dealing with the Black Demon Progenitor quickly was the top priority, and also for self-preservation.

After searching for a while, Bai Yu didn’t find anyone, so he went to the captain’s side and asked, ”Captain, do you know where Professor Wang Wen and the others are?”

”Professor Wang Wen? They should be with Professor Kong Shen’s students and Elder Kong’s family now. I don’t know exactly where they are, do you need Professor Wang Wen for something?”

”Yes, just a small matter.”

”They might be in a special situation right now, so it’s not convenient to call them. How about we wait until nine o’clock, when we enter the main hall of the City Hall, you should be able to see them.”

At this moment, Liu Ruoxi, who was beside them, weakly raised her hand and said, ”I know where they are.”

”You know?”

”Yes, my grandfather and Elder Kong are friends, and I also know Elder Kong’s granddaughter; we are considered friends for three generations.”

Bai Yu fell silent.

Alright! You powerful and influential people really do mingle in the same circles.

Should I leave then?

”Where are they now? Is it convenient to go over?”

”On the third floor inside the City Hall, it should be possible to go over.”

”Then let’s wait a bit; I’m not in a particular hurry.”

”I’ll take you there. I also want to go see Grandma Yu.”

Since Liu Ruoxi offered a way, Bai Yu naturally accepted: ”Alright.”

Saying that, the two walked towards the City Hall.

Liu Ruoxi was originally a guide, but she walked side by side with Bai Yu, even slightly behind him.

The atmosphere was a little strange.

The crowd behind them naturally started chatting when they saw this scene.

Qin Wanqing saw this scene, a sweet smile on her face, and couldn’t help but hug Li Yunbin’s arm, then said, ”If those two were together, they would look very well-matched, don’t you think?”

Li Yunbin, however, shook his head and said, ”I’m afraid it might be difficult.”

Qin Wanqing’s expression froze slightly, and she said, ”Why? Bai Yu liked Ruoxi before. Ruoxi hasn’t had much contact with boys, and at this age, she should be starting to feel something for someone, right?”

”It’s mainly about Bai Yu; Tianhai City might not even be able to contain him. If the strength gap is too big...”

”Hmph!”

Qin Wanqing, usually gentle, was slightly annoyed and lightly punched Li Yunbin with her small fist.

”What the captain said is correct; Bai Yu’s current performance is indeed not something an ordinary person can capture. Think about it, if Odd Gods invade in the future, and Bai Yu is running around, how could they possibly see each other, and they would both have to worry about each other.”

Qin Wanqing was not an unreasonable person; after a moment of thought, she understood that it was indeed true.

Liu Ruoxi’s biggest problem was her inability to Cultivate.

Even if she could Cultivate, she would need extremely high talent to be worthy of Bai Yu.

The world was different now.

On the other side, as soon as they reached the City Hall statue, a message came on his phone.

Bai Yu glanced at it; it was from Zhang Youpeng.

”Brother Yu is awesome! I’ve always had high hopes for Brother Yu since I was little! Two years ago, I had a premonition that Goddess Liu Ruoxi would definitely become my sister-in-law! So, should I change how I address you next time we meet?”

Bai Yu: Meow meow meow!

This brat always likes to find gossip topics about him.

”You kid, your temperament is quite good after working out now, why don’t you find someone?”

”I can find someone anytime! If Brother Yu introduces her, I’ll take her!”

”Get lost! You really know how to take advantage. How can I let you mess with the quality beauties around me?”

”Heh heh ~ Brother Yu, go for it! Take her down directly!”

”I’m blocking you, okay.”

”*Whimpers* ~ I was wrong.”

Bai Yu was speechless and looked back at the muscular Zhang Youpeng.

It really was him who sent it from his phone!

Otherwise, he would have thought someone had hacked his account.

After reading the message, Bai Yu glanced at Liu Ruoxi, who was walking slightly ahead of him.

The two had indeed been silent throughout the journey.

Actually, this was the most subtle part.

Normally, becoming friends, chatting slowly, and gradually developing feelings for each other, falling in love unknowingly, that’s how normal relationships work.

But because he had pursued her before, and it ended without success, Bai Yu now didn’t want to appear too close. Otherwise, people would think they were dating.

In the future, if Bai Yu reached the pinnacle of power and met his destined one, walking together with her.

Then, in others’ eyes, wouldn’t I be cheating?

’Alas, I am ultimately too high-quality; I need to lower my standards!’

’Having multiple partners, isn’t that good?’

Twisting his neck, Bai Yu also had a different mindset.

Although it was the original owner’s unrequited love for half a year, it had nothing to do with him, and it was a memory from two years ago, long blurred.

But the more blurred it was, the more perfect it became!

He had inherited all these memories.

Recalling his previous life, there was indeed a ’white moonlight’ he couldn’t get.

The ’white moonlight’ itself might not be beautiful; that beauty always came from imagination.

’It did stir up a bit of dust-covered memory, let’s see...’

’Perhaps this emotion will continue to be sealed away.’

Third floor of the City Hall.

Many people gathered here; some were busy, but most stood aside.

After all, the event hadn’t started yet; they couldn’t just leave now, could they?

Bai Yu quickly spotted Professor Wang Wen and Professor Feng, these two old fellows, who seemed to be with a few friends, sitting on the edge seats, chatting.

Professor Wang Wen also noticed Bai Yu, and his eyes clearly showed surprise.

But after seeing Liu Ruoxi beside Bai Yu, he revealed a smile like a father-in-law.

Bai Yu understood that smile.

’...’

Seeing that Professor Wang Wen didn’t seem busy, Bai Yu walked over.

Liu Ruoxi also didn’t go to find Grandma Yu or anyone else, following behind.

Bai Yu was curious, they hadn’t had much contact recently, so why did she seem to be a little interested in him?

It must be Liu Feifei and Wanqing Jie fanning the flames.

This matter, he had to observe slowly.

Professor Wang Wen saw Bai Yu approach and jokingly scolded, ”Why did you, you brat, come over here?”

It was clear that he was very excited to see Bai Yu.

Bai Yu was very direct: ”Isn’t this a ready-made credit that I want to give to you, Professor Wang?”

”Tsk~! When did you, you brat, become so good to this old man?”

Though he said that, Professor Wang Wen still guessed that Bai Yu had probably come up with something good again!

If it weren’t for the inappropriate setting, he would have directly pulled Bai Yu for an all-night talk.

Unable to resist his curiosity, Professor Wang Wen still subtly asked, ”What credit?”

”A few big cases require some reagents and such.”

Hearing this, Professor Wang Wen’s smile stiffened.

”I knew it! You brat, when you actively seek me out, it’s definitely not for anything good!”

He thought to himself, this isn’t doing research at all. This is clearly him wanting me to help him investigate cases!

Bai Yu smiled at this, saying nothing.

He thought to himself: Damn it! When you find out what it is, let’s see if you’re shocked or not!

But Professor Wang Wen looked at Liu Ruoxi: ”Still, my good niece is better. Come, sit down and chat.”

Bai Yu then heartlessly said, ”She’s here to find Grandma Yu, not to find you, old man.”

Professor Wang Wen instantly glared at Bai Yu and said, ”You brat, go find some black tape and tape your mouth shut.”
