Hire little monsters in your dreams every day

Chapter 72 Thunder Pool Immortal Official
Blah blah blah...

Deputy Director Lei soared into the sky, disappearing into the rain.

His jacket was quickly soaked through by the rain.

But he doesn't care.

He held the official rank of a county town god's bodyguard with a sword, and his physique far surpassed that of ordinary people!

As they flew upwards, they soon saw dark thunderclouds overhead and heard thunder rumbling from within them!

Click...

The sky and earth were illuminated, the rain curtain was cleared, and a bolt of lightning struck him on the head in an instant!
From his sleeve, a tiny electric eel leaped into the air, met the lightning bolt head-on, opened its mouth, and in an instant, with flashes of electricity, swallowed the lightning bolt whole!
Deputy Director Lei grinned, letting the electric eel flutter and circle around him in a fawning manner, before continuing to fly upwards into the dark clouds.

This electric eel is not a demon; it is actually a celestial artifact, representing the power of the Thunder Pool Celestial Official to control thunder!

……

Blah blah blah...

Huwuwuwu...

The special lightning-avoiding aircraft traversed through the dark clouds, sometimes encountering heavy rain, sometimes strong winds, swaying and bobbing up and down.

Inside the cabin, there were celestial officials from the non-natural department in charge, and scientists watching over screens, their eyes wide open, observing various data.

"...The spiritual energy observation index is rising."

Are we getting closer to spiritual energy?

A middle-aged man with glasses, messy hair, greasy face, and who clearly didn't like washing his hair looked at the celestial official next to him.

That's right, it's Teacher Wu!

After his magic class was canceled, he immediately joined the next project team.

Today, I'm even accompanying the spacecraft on its maiden flight to guide the exploration.

Sitting next to him, Gu Qingfeng looked at the City God's map in his hand, nodding and his eyes shining with excitement.

Yes! It's definitely getting closer!

"This is the closest I've ever come to a large surge of spiritual energy!"
"Perhaps we really can achieve a breakthrough!"

Upon hearing this, everyone on the ship became excited.

"Achieve a breakthrough?"

"That would be enough to publish a really impressive paper, right?"

Liu Jinyuan, who was accompanying them, was even more excited!

What does it mean to lose one thing but gain another?

The magic class is over, but I can immediately make a contribution in the next key project, which is pretty cool!
Although the credit mainly went to Professor Wu, and they were just his junior colleagues who accompanied him... a small share of the credit was enough for them to eat and drink their fill!
Teacher Wu stared at the radar chart on the screen for a long time, then looked at the cloud map, electric field map, and magnetic field map on the screen next to him.

"Make all the other aircraft move closer to us."

"Everyone is focusing on mapping the source of spiritual energy."

One command after another was immediately sent out.

Everyone on the spaceship became even more alert.

Liu Jinyuan operated the spacecraft's periscope, observing the top, bottom, left, and right sides, as well as the density of the clouds. He saw that the clouds above were becoming increasingly dense and dark.

I saw a long, goat-like face staring at the camera...

"Ok?"

He jerked violently and pulled his hand away from the controller.

"Professor, come quick!"

Everyone on the boat instinctively turned their heads and saw the long face on the screen, and saw that the long face's hair was soaked by the rain and stuck to his scalp.

"What the hell?"

"what happened?"

"He's standing on our spaceship, standing right above us?"

"Isn't he afraid of being struck by lightning? How did he get into the dark clouds?"

Gu Qingfeng stood up, pondered for a moment, put away the City God's Picture Book, and drew a broadsword from his waist.

"Everyone, go on alert. I'll go out after I put on my protective suit..."

Before he could finish speaking, the screen was illuminated by a bright electric light!
The long-faced man on the screen remained expressionless, letting the electric eels flying around him swallow all the lightning!

Silence fell inside the spaceship.

Gu Qingfeng sheathed his broadsword, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his face turned pale.

Then they heard the man's voice from above. "Tell all your ships to hide deep within the clouds and sea, and not to show your faces."

"Whoever exposes themselves will die."

……

Blah blah blah...

In a small restaurant.

Mr. Lü sat by the window, watching over a large plate of crabs, eating them with gusto.

After slurping up a large piece of crab meat, he tore off a tissue to wipe his mouth.

"Hey, these hairy crabs from East Lake are really good."

A large plate of crabs, twenty in total, more than most people could eat.

Firstly, crabs are considered "cold" in traditional Chinese medicine, and eating too many can cause diarrhea.

Secondly, crabs are too expensive; eating too many will strain your wallet.

But Mr. Lü didn't care about any of that. He reached out and picked up another crab, broke it open, and ate it.

Firstly, the celestial official has a strong physique and is not afraid of cold.

Secondly, the celestial officials don't need to pay for their food.

Click...

The sound of thunder came from the sky.

He turned his head to look at the sky outside the window.

"Judging by the time, it's about time."

"Shouldn't a fight break out soon?"

……

Blah blah blah...

Huwuwuwuwu...

Inside the sea of ​​clouds, thick fog shrouded the area, lightning flashed, and at times heavy rain fell, and at other times strong winds blew...

More than a dozen special lightning-avoiding spaceships hovered in the sea of ​​clouds, not daring to move an inch.

Because a spaceship that had just disobeyed orders and tried to escape was still floating, but everyone inside was already dead.

Inside the cabin, Liu Jinyuan saw the interior of the spaceship that had tried to escape; everyone had turned to black ash, and the floor was covered with filthy oil stains.

He still remembers that just a moment ago, those people were melted by the electric light!

The so-called lightning-proof special spaceship can withstand lightning in nature, but it can't withstand the lightning of this long-faced man!
His face grew paler and paler, and he struggled to breathe. He really wanted to cry!

Lately, I've been having a really bad year, constantly running into misfortune.

If he manages to get back alive this time, he will never want to follow Teacher Wu again!
……

Huff...woo...

A cold wind, carrying a thick mist, swept across the top of the spaceship.

Deputy Director Lei sat cross-legged here, looking up at the sky.

"Is that the direction of the spirit energy pool?"

He cannot see spiritual energy with the naked eye.

But in his hand, there was a compass, which was trembling wildly as it pointed upwards!

"The denser the spiritual energy, the more violently the compass trembles."

"Judging by the intensity, it must be true."

"Shouldn't the Grand Ninth-Rank Immortal Official from the Soaring Cloud Passage be here soon?"

"The Imperial Inspector who patrols the heavens and explores the hidden realms...possesses the ability to become invisible?"

"An unseen enemy, with a slippery personality... this is really troublesome."

He pointed, and the small electric eel that had been circling and flying beside him "whooshed" upwards, passing through the howling wind and rolling clouds, like an inconspicuous speck of dust, silently flying to the location of the spiritual energy pool, where its small body quietly swam in the huge pool.

The electric eel's tiny eyes darted around, meeting Deputy Director Lei's gaze.

I saw the dark sky above the sea of ​​clouds, and streaks of lightning stretching across the sky like cracks.

Inside the electric eel's tiny belly, endless thunder is brewing, ready to unleash at any moment!
All that's needed is for this pool of spiritual energy to show the slightest movement, and for the Grand Ninth-Rank Immortal Official to appear on the way through the soaring clouds... then Deputy Director Lei will give the order to use endless lightning to annihilate this sky!
