Codename - Thunder Target

File Classification: Confidential

Name: Zhou Wen

Sex: Male

Age: 34 (at the time of death)

Occupation: Senior Researcher at Thunder Labs

Date of death: July 22, 2037

I. Background Investigation of the Original Body: Zhou Wen, in 2026, entered the tutelage of Professor Feng, a professor in the human race's extraordinary field, and was one of Professor Feng's favorite students. He was extremely diligent and intelligent, and achieved certain results in multiple fields.

The target's strength is only at the early stage of Qi Gathering Realm, making it suitable for parasitic control.

III. Death (July 22, 2037)

When Lei Tu submitted the information about Professor Feng and the Thunder Scepter, everything seemed normal.

During the ambush at Nine Serpent Bend, Lei Tu lost control of his body while attacking Professor Feng, thus shielding Professor Feng from a fatal blow and contributing to the operation's failure.

After the war, the human special investigators found no abnormalities in the blood, and Lei Tu successfully escaped.

VI. Analysis of Host Out-of-Control Events:

The human soul is extremely unique, possessing a special protective mechanism. Under intense emotional outbursts, there is a chance it can escape control. Targeted evolution of the Blood Demon is necessary.

After reading this information, Bai Yu could hardly believe his eyes.

"Zhou Wen really is a traitor!"

"No! He's just being controlled."

Because the file was incomplete, he could only speculate.

First of all, from an analytical perspective, this file is definitely an internal enemy file.

Next, Bai Yu began to recall the entire incident.

According to the file, everything was under control before.

So Zhou Wen, the Blood Demon codenamed Thunder Buddy, was definitely up to no good when he watched me from behind and then told Professor Feng this crucial information!

No matter how powerful Lei Tu is, he couldn't possibly know that he already knew about the attack before he arrived, let alone that he had communicated with big shots like Director Yang.

Therefore, his first thought must have been to successfully smear himself and clear himself of suspicion.

But no matter how much they planned, they miscalculated Zhou Wen's own will.

At that moment, Zhou Wen chose to sacrifice himself to save the professor.

From this perspective, Professor Feng's tears were not shed in vain.

"This all seems to make more sense now."

In fact, during the battle and the cleanup of the battlefield, Bai Yu noticed two unusual places.

Firstly, the expression on that blood-red figure's face was off when he killed Zhou Wen. He looked furrowed and slightly displeased.

At that time, Bai Yu did not release Yang Ju's phantom image.

As a powerful figure at the peak of the Spirit Origin Realm, or even half a step into the Spirit Sea Realm, if one attack fails, he can simply strike again.

In fact, as a typical villain, he would probably be extremely sarcastic and mocking when he sees humanity's fearless sacrifice, rather than reacting in such a strange way.

Secondly, when cleaning up the battlefield, Zhou Wen's blood was a very strange color, very red, and it hadn't coagulated quickly; it looked a bit like tomato sauce.

And they all flowed to the road intersection.

"Damn it! That blood demon has probably escaped!"

"well"

Bai Yu sighed deeply.

Zhou Wen himself is absolutely without fault.

Even while being controlled, he managed to regain control of his body and save his teacher.

"He probably knew that if he were alive, he would make even bigger mistakes."

Bai Yu greatly admired this kind of thing.

My feelings are now more complicated.

No one knows what Zhou Wen's will went through, and even the true cause of his death remains unknown.

The true meaning of chivalry lies in being nameless.

Suddenly, Bai Yu thought of something else.

He quickly flipped through the previous intelligence!

Registration Date: January 14, 2048

Name: Lei Tao

Family incident:

At one point, the Lei family's high-ranking members were controlled by the Blood Demon. Further investigation revealed that the Lei family's research institute colluded with the Blood Ancestral God, secretly creating forbidden objects such as flesh-and-blood fusion monsters in an attempt to obtain immortality from the alien god.

"Blood Demon!"

"I knew that word sounded so familiar."

"So the Blood Demon is in the form of blood. I thought it was in human form."

At this moment, Bai Yu felt a little uneasy.

Is he the only one who knows the truth about this?

At least neither Director Yang nor the female Director Meng thought of checking the blood or anything like that, so they probably didn't know about the existence of this monster.

"It's a good thing I chose this information; otherwise, I wouldn't have known the truth."

"Go to sleep."

I just tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.

Bai Yu woke up at six o'clock in the morning and began to complete three simple exercise tasks.

I worked for nearly an hour, during which I completed a major cycle.

"Phew~"

"This potion's effect on the meridians is truly amazing! I remember it took me 40 minutes the first time I circulated it, then it quickly increased to half an hour, and it became more difficult to increase it further, but now it only takes 22 minutes and 25 seconds!"

"Moreover, by circulating the Great Heavenly Cycle once now, we can absorb even more spiritual energy from heaven and earth."

"If we moved it to a place with abundant spiritual energy, like the wilderness, the effect would probably be even better!"

Speaking of which, he remembered that the Investigation Bureau also had a spiritual energy cultivation room with an extremely high concentration of spiritual energy.

However, this is a new type of equipment, extremely expensive, and only available for use in special circumstances, such as when one has gained some insight and needs to stimulate multiple acupoints.

"The Qi Gathering Realm is also divided into levels."

"The human body has 365 internal acupoints. Once 36 basic acupoints are opened, the circulation of qi through the body can be completed, and one can officially enter the Qi Gathering Realm."

"I think I have about sixty acupoints connected in my body right now."

Just as he was about to test which acupoints he had activated, there was a knock on the door.

"Knock knock knock~"

Bai Yu thought to himself, "It must be Sister Feifei who's here so early in the morning."

Upon opening the door, a man was seen.

Bai Yu asked in surprise, "Captain, what's wrong?"

"Check on the players' well-being."

Li Yunbin's tone was always so gentle, and when he smiled, it was like a spring breeze.

"May I come in?"

"certainly!"

"I'm afraid there might be someone hiding inside."

"Captain, you're starting to act silly too."

"It's all because I've been hanging out with you guys for too long."

After Li Yunbin walked in, he looked around.

There were many discarded talisman papers on the desk that were obviously failed to be made.

Judging from this alone, Bai Yu is definitely working on talisman-making technology!

These days, making talismans isn't something ordinary people can do.

It's quite troublesome for the Li family behind him to support a talisman maker.

The talisman he gave to Bai Yu, which was at the peak of the Spirit Origin Realm, is currently worth over 50,000 on the market, and that's just the starting price!

The important point is that a lot of materials are wasted during the production process, which is equivalent to spending money to create a talisman maker! If you have poor talent and a low success rate, you will lose money, which means you are not suitable for this profession.

Bai Yu didn't mind being seen, since he would need to use the talisman sooner or later.

"Captain, what's the matter?"

Given Li Yunbin's personality, it's clear he wouldn't visit without a reason.

"Yes, something is wrong. It's about the distribution of rewards after yesterday's battle."

"That's right, only a few of us and Director Yang know about your contribution to this attack."

"Director Yang didn't report it to his superiors, mainly because he was worried that if word got out about your situation, you would be targeted by the alien races."

"So when the higher-ups were assigning the rewards, they definitely didn't know that."

Bai Yu laughed upon hearing this, casually lay down on the sofa, and said, "I'm the kind of person who will definitely follow orders, especially for my safety. However, too much of this can dampen enthusiasm for production."

Hearing this, Li Yunbin smiled. He knew Bai Yu would agree, but he felt that Bai Yu's unwillingness to suffer losses meant that he wouldn't simply agree.

They'll definitely say some 'strange' things.

"Don't rush, let me finish explaining."

"According to the distribution rules from above, and considering human nature, those who die in battle will receive a larger share of their contributions in addition to the basic compensation. This is a consensus in our supernatural world."

Bai Yu nodded, agreeing with that.

People are always afraid of death.

In order to better resist foreign invaders, it is normal to treat the victims with high welfare.

"According to this rule, the guard team received more than 5 contribution points, and most of the slots in the treasure vault were given to them."

"Professor Feng received 5,000 contribution points and a Level 3 Treasure Vault spot because of the death of one of his students. Professor Wang Wen only received 2,000."

"Our three groups were allocated around 30,000."

"Deputy Director Yang received 15000 points, and Deputy Director Meng received 8000 points. As for whether there were any additional special rewards, I have no idea."

"Of course, for the two deputy directors, the contribution points reward is secondary. This battle will definitely be recorded in their merit book and will affect their future promotions."

"Director Yang's idea is that you take 10,000 of his 15,000 points. As for the remaining 5,000, Director Yang hopes that you can donate it in your own name to Professor Feng's student."

What do you think?

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu thought to himself: Wow! This total reward is really generous.

But if you think about it carefully, there are nearly a hundred monsters that have appeared this time, and most of them are quite strong, all of them being at least in the second realm.

Such a generous reward is to be expected.

As for Director Yang's proposal...

It seems that even though Professor Feng cleared up the misunderstanding, a rift still exists between us. Giving the student 5,000 points as compensation isn't out of the question. He truly died with grievances unresolved.

"I'd be happy to get 10,000 contribution points."

This money is more than enough for Bai Yu to spend now, and he can continue to earn more later.

"As for Professor Feng's matter..."

Bai Yu thought about it for a moment. Professor Feng was quite unlucky, being completely fooled by the Blood Demon.

But in the end, Zhou Wen did save him again!

Professor Feng will probably never know the truth and will remain in the dark.

Bai Yu wondered if he should talk to Li Yunbin about it.

This blood demon has a unique form and strange abilities; we must be careful!

I didn't know how to bring up the Lei family's affairs before, but now that we're at this juncture, I can start by mentioning the Blood Demon.

"What's wrong?"

"Let me wait until our team is complete before I say anything."

Li Yunbin:
