Ultra: Dragon Sword Journey

Chapter 24: The Black Technology of Well Digging

Recently, fishermen along the coast have been seeing frequent attacks on power stations. The command center's phone has been ringing non-stop, with reports of severe damage to the power supply system in the newly opened area. On-site testing has revealed significant bio-energy fluctuations. To uncover the truth, Dagu and Xincheng were assigned to patrol the Feiyan-1 aircraft. They meticulously searched the electrical system's distribution area, searching for any clues.

"We have arrived above the newly developed zone, but the sensors have not shown any abnormal response," Dagu said through wireless communication after carefully checking the biological monitoring device on the Feiyan.

"Be careful, even if it's just for a moment. But there has indeed been an abnormally strong bio-energetic reaction in that area," the captain solemnly warned on the onboard screen.

"I see," Dagu said doubtfully as he maneuvered the plane over the sea like a bird, searching. "Could the monster have disappeared?"

"The creature's reaction was strong enough to be recorded, how could it disappear out of thin air?" Xincheng responded.

"That's right," Dagu murmured softly and continued flying. After a thorough search without success, he returned to base.

The door to the Victory Team's headquarters opened, and Dagu and Shinjo walked in dejectedly, helmets between their legs. "Thank you for your hard work," the captain said.

"Where did this monster come from? I didn't even see a shadow!" Xincheng frowned, his eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, muttering to himself. At this moment, various possibilities flashed through his mind. Could it be... Just as Xincheng was lost in thought, Dagu beside him quickly interrupted and said, "I think it might be that the sensor is malfunctioning?"

However, Ye Rui shook his head and replied firmly, "No, the sensors are working fine, showing no signs of malfunction." He then turned his gaze to Lina, who was staring intently at the data on the computer screen. After a moment, Lina looked up and added firmly, "Yes, I just conducted a comprehensive survey of the area using satellite radar, and similarly found no abnormal activity suggesting the presence of a monster."

Hearing this, Ikuma Hui nodded slightly in agreement, and solemnly instructed everyone: "Although no conclusive evidence has been found to indicate the presence of monsters, we still cannot let our guard down. We must continue to closely monitor the area and remain highly vigilant at all times." As soon as he finished speaking, Jujing nodded, as if he suddenly remembered something important.

"Oh, right! Wait for me..." With that, Jujing turned around and sprinted out the door like an arrow from a bow. This sudden move made everyone present look at each other in confusion, wondering what Jujing was up to.

Soon, hurried footsteps approached, and then Jujing returned to the room, carrying a heavy box. He quickly reached the table, carefully set the box down, and eagerly opened the lid, quickly pulling out a device resembling a video game console. Curious, everyone gathered around, and upon closer inspection, they discovered neatly arranged rows of Victory Hypa magazines, each the size of a large battery.

Jujing began to introduce. He took out a magazine and introduced it to everyone: "This is called a monster tracker. Just shoot this thing at the monster. It will emit a special particle signal. No matter where the monster is, it can be detected with this small radar."

"Things that previous radars and sensors couldn't detect can now be detected with this," Horijui said proudly. "Great job, Horijui! You're worthy of being the Doraemon of the Victory Team," Daigo said with a smile. "Wait, Daigo, I don't understand a single word you're saying when you put it together," Horijui said with a puzzled look.

"Okay, enough kidding," Captain Iruma Kei said. "Let's try out the monster tracker first. Dijing, what do you think we should do?"

"Well... we can use the Feiyan to patrol the area first. If we find a monster, we can shoot it with the tracker." Jujing replied after thinking for a moment.

"Good idea! Let's do it. Dagu, Xincheng, you drive the Feiyan to patrol." Captain Iruma Hui gave the order.

"Yes!" Dagu and Xincheng answered in unison, and then went to the hangar to prepare for takeoff.

Iruma Kei smiled with satisfaction and said, "Well digger, you should go to the scene immediately."

"Understood," Di Jing picked up the monster tracker and set off immediately. Di Jing drove the Sherlock car through the underwater tunnel all the way to the newly developed area and parked the car on the side of the road. He arrived at the resort hotel in the newly developed area, which was the place where the monster was said to have appeared.

Jujing walked into the hotel and asked the front desk staff, "Oh, you said there are monsters here!"

"Have you heard any strange noises or anything that seems out of place?" Digjing asked.

"No, everything is normal," the receptionist replied naturally. I thought to myself, even if there is, I can't tell you! Otherwise, how can I do business?

Zhao Ming lay on a lounge chair by the pool, eyes slightly closed, feeling the warmth of the sun and the gentle breeze. The sound of the waves and the laughter of people filled his ears, making him feel extremely relaxed.

He opened his eyes and saw the beautiful women in swimsuits playing in the pool. Their hot bodies and bright smiles made Zhao Ming look at them a few more times. He thought to himself, this is a great place for a vacation, not only with beautiful scenery, but also with so many beautiful women.

Zhao Ming sat up, took a sip of the juice in his hand, and then stood up and walked to the pool. He jumped in, feeling the cool water surrounding him. He swam a few times, then stopped in the middle of the pool and took in the beautiful scenery. It was a pity that Maya was not there. She had recently gone to another city for a performance due to work.

A while later, Zhao Ming, lounging in the sun on a lounge chair, suddenly heard a familiar voice. He turned to see Juejing, wearing a Victory uniform, sitting there dejectedly. "Really? If the monsters don't show up, I can't pretend!" Juejing said, taking in the stunning poolside scenery. "Such a beautiful place shouldn't be for work."

"Well digger," Zhao Ming suddenly spoke and patted him.

"Well digger, why are you here?" Zhao Ming asked in confusion.

"Oh, forget it." Dijing sighed. "I was sent here to investigate the rumors about the monster here, but I searched for ages and couldn't find even a trace of it."

Zhao Ming smiled secretly in his heart, digging a well is still so interesting.

"Maybe the monster is just a rumor?" Zhao Ming comforted.

"Absolutely impossible! My intuition has always been accurate. I am sure there must be a big problem here." He said to Zhao Ming with a serious face, and began to describe in detail a strange thing that happened recently in the new development zone.

Recently, the power station in the newly developed area has been frequently attacked by monsters. The monsters are mysterious and elusive, posing a great threat to the local power supply.

Digging a well had a serious expression on his face, and he continued to explain seriously: "As far as I know, this situation is by no means accidental. These monsters seem to have a clear goal, which is to steal the electricity in the power station. Could it be that they are monsters that come specifically to steal electricity?" As he spoke, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Electricity-stealing monsters"? Zhao Ming's mind quickly recalled the relevant plot. "Ebron cells"—they were a special type of cosmic cells discovered by the TPC Space Development Bureau's Development Center on a rock in outer space. These cells possessed miraculous powers, capable of dramatically enhancing the abilities of living beings. However, as with everything, there are two sides to the coin. Once transplanted into a living being, these cells would amplify the creature's inner darkness and extreme emotions. Worse still, a being transplanted with Ebron cells required a vast amount of electricity to sustain life.

At that moment, Horii's eyes suddenly widened, his gaze fixed on a figure not far away. He quickly stepped forward and greeted, "Ryosuke, aren't you Ryosuke?" The figure stopped and suddenly turned to look at him. "Are you Horii?"

Sanada Ryosuke and Horii had been good friends since high school and college, and it had been a long time since they last saw each other. They were both incredibly excited to see each other again, quickly gathering together and chatting animatedly. The two, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, began discussing work.

"Jujing, I heard that you are doing well in the Victory Team?"

"No, it's just so-so," Jujing smiled and asked, "By the way, I heard that you are the research director of the Space Development Center, right?"

"Compared to doing research, I would rather join the winning team and be active on the front lines," Sanada Ryosuke responded.

"Many things depend on luck. Even someone as stupid as me made it into the winning team. But you were not accepted," Dijing said to comfort his friend.

"You got in through your own merit," he paused. "You possess the unique inspiration for an inventor, and a cheerful personality that helps keep the team spirit high." He was about to continue when he suddenly clutched his chest, his face turning pale with pain.

Zhao Ming stared at Sanada Ryosuke's body, his gaze piercing through it. He discovered that within him lay another personality, an extremely dark and extreme existence, like dark magic that had fallen into an endless abyss, emitting a chilling aura.

This mysterious cellular power clearly exceeds the limits of the human body's endurance. Life itself is an incredibly complex and delicate realm, and any unconsidered intrusion could lead to unimaginable catastrophic consequences. However, the men at the Space Development Agency seemed to have lost their minds, pouring all their energy into these dangerous and bizarre research, completely deviating from the normal path.

Instead of focusing on the righteous path, they indulged in various unorthodox and devious practices. Zhao Ming secretly fumed, deeply dissatisfied and disappointed with their actions. After resolving the problem with Sanada Ryosuke, he decided to use his Dragon-Slaying Sword to completely purify this evil force. Only in this way could it be prevented from causing trouble in the future, and he would avoid the trouble of cleaning up the mess caused by these miscreants every time.

Horii helped Sanada Ryosuke back to his room, and when he came out, he was followed by a woman. "Meeting Ryosuke was unexpected enough, but I didn't expect to meet you, Sayaka, too. What a coincidence," Horii said.

"This is not a coincidence. In fact, I came here with Ryosuke."

"What happened?" Digjing looked at her and learned

Sayaka said slowly: "That was three months ago. One day Ryosuke suddenly came to me. At first he was very healthy, but then he gradually became strange."

“Just like just now”?

"Yes, he said he needed to rest, and I was worried so I came to see him"!

Listening to their conversation and looking at her, Zhao Ming thought, "This is the girl named Sayaka, they were classmates. Later, when Sanada Ryosuke was about to turn into a monster, she actually belittled Digging Well as worthless. What a disgusting green tea bitch."

Jujing stopped and Zhao Ming walked over and said, "Jujing, I just asked Dagu to check. Someone stole a meteorite from the meteorites kept by the Space Development Agency, and on it was the cosmic cell Ebron. And in the team studying cosmic cells, there was the name of Sanada Ryosuke. After this incident, he also took a long vacation."

"Ebron cells?" Dijing looked puzzled.

"Take a look at this! This is the relevant information Dagu found." Zhao Ming passed the information Dagu found in PDI to Juejing and said in a deep voice, "Ebron cells can dramatically improve the abilities of the transplanted organism. However, without a large supply of electrical energy, they cannot survive."

"Electricity? Could it be that Ryosuke transplanted Ebron cells?" Dijing said in disbelief!

"This is why the power station in the newly developed area has been frequently attacked by monsters recently. Ryosuke Sanada has had Ebron cells transplanted into him, so he needs a lot of electricity to survive." Zhao Ming continued, "You should know your friend's background. He has been competitive since he was young. Because he lost to you in the selection for the Victory Team, he chose to join the Space Development Bureau and actively participated in this project, stealing and transplanting Ebron cells just to prove that he is no worse than anyone else!"

Zhao Ming thought to himself, this kind of person is so competitive that they're obsessed with it, and they're so obsessed with face that they suffer. If it were a good thing, those smart people at the Space Development Bureau would just leave it there and let you use it.

"I see..." Dijing digested this fact, feeling increasingly heavy-hearted.

After Dijing reported the situation to headquarters, Ikuma Hui understood the whole process and quickly ordered: "Everyone of the Victory Team, stand by! As soon as the monster appears, destroy it immediately!"

At nightfall, in Sanada Ryosuke's room, he clutched his chest, his face etched with agony as he collapsed on the sofa. Anguished, he grabbed a nearby recorder and began recording the changes in his body. "It's starting to happen. Could this be a side effect of the experiment?" "Ah..." he cried out in agony. He had heard that "Ebron cells" could maintain exceptional strength, so he exploited his position and transplanted all the Ebron cells from a meteorite stored at the Space Development Agency's center. Since then, his body has been experiencing abnormalities, requiring a constant supply of energy to ensure he remains viable.

Lifting his sleeves, he saw some scars on his arms, resembling the scales of some creature. As he cried out in pain, the lights in the room went out, and the electricity was completely absorbed by him, leaving him with a strange green light.

In the dim night, inside the energy center not far from the hotel, a security guard, having heard an unusual noise, descended the stairs with a flashlight, searching for its source. A continuous "sizzling" sound of electricity echoed through the air. The security guard stepped forward, his voice wary, "Who's there?" As he reached a corner, he saw the shadow of a monster, reflected on the wall by a green light, gradually growing larger.

"Ah..." The security guard screamed in fear.

Just as he was about to eat a mouthful of instant noodles for a midnight snack, the ground suddenly began to shake. He quickly went outside. A huge monster's body broke through the roof of the energy center and emerged.
