Chapter 93 The Anxious Group, the Taoist Priest Has Made a Great Contribution! (Please Subscribe)

The two men, carrying video data from the experiment and prepared to die, headed to the command post, only to find it empty.

Is Commander-in-Chief Su Mingjin absent?

"Where did you go?"

"Master Chen and his team have made a new discovery; they've gone to Warehouse Number Three."

Warehouse No. 3? Master Chen's new discovery?

The two exchanged a glance, their hearts sinking even deeper.

That place stores the most dangerous experimental materials. The commander-in-chief went there personally. What major incident has occurred?

I wonder if Commander Su is in a good mood right now!

With trepidation, they rushed to the warehouse, only to be stunned into stopping in their tracks by the sight before them.

Inside the warehouse, a group of research luminaries who usually stayed in the laboratory and were rarely seen were all present.

These people were holding their breath, gathered in a circle, watching the two Taoist priests, Chen and Zhou, in the center of the room.

Deng Dakang was the most outrageous, practically watching the two Taoist priests' actions face-to-face.

At that moment, Master Zhou cut his own hand, and blood flowed freely.

Then, holding a vermilion pen, he wrote with great skill and elegance on a yellow paper talisman, chanting incantations as he did so, his expression solemn, a stark contrast to his usual cheerful demeanor.

"What's going on here?" Zhong Shichang tugged at Zhao Jiaqi, a classmate he knew well.

"Shh!" Zhao Jiaqi whispered, "The talismans brought by the Taoist priests seem to have undergone strange changes in this world, and we're currently replicating and verifying them on-site!"

Zhong Shichang looked at Master Zhou's rather ritualistic movements and felt a little amused, thinking that it was not much different from a shamanistic ritual.

Soon, a "talisman for warding off evil" was completed.

Master Zhou carefully affixed the talisman to a specially made glass alloy cage not far away.

Inside the cage was a skeleton whose jawbone kept opening and closing, making a "click, click" sound.

"That's it?" Chung Shih-chang muttered under his breath.

"Just wait and see," Zhao Jiaqi said mysteriously.

A minute passed, and the skeleton was still clicking.

Three minutes passed, and the skeleton was still clicking away.

Five minutes... ten minutes...

Chung Shih-chang's patience was running out. Just as he was about to say something, Lao Guo grabbed him.

"Don't speak, just look!"

The once ordinary yellow talisman suddenly began to emit a faint white glow from its edges, and then the air seemed to distort as if hot air was rising.

Accompanied by a distorted heatwave and an ever-brighter light.

The next moment, the red light suddenly intensified!

The imprisoned skeleton seemed to be ignited by an invisible fuse; with a "whoosh," its entire body was instantly enveloped in a crimson flame.

Strangely, the flame burned extremely quickly and silently, without emitting a single wisp of black smoke.

Under the astonished gaze of the crowd, the hard bones were visibly consumed and dissolved by the flames, eventually turning into a small clump of grayish-white powder that fell down in a flurry.

The entire warehouse was so quiet you could hear a heartbeat.

Everyone was stunned by this supernatural scene.

At this moment, Master Chen's gaze swept over the pile of ashes, and his calm voice rang out in the empty warehouse, clearly reaching everyone's ears: "The primordial energy of this place can be used by our Dao. Fellow lay practitioners, is this beneficial for our exorcism?"

"Taoist priests, may we try other talismans?" Su Mingjin asked curiously.

Deng Dakang didn't look at Master Chen, but stared intently at the bone fragments that had been melted into ashes.

"Sure, but we have very little experience in making talismans. Let's try making a few more to see how it goes."

"good!"

Zhong Shichang glanced at Lao Guo and said, "I feel like that's a chemical reaction! Do you think that thing is the power of talismans?"

"The talisman takes too long to take effect. I feel that the talisman paper with a lot of mixtures has been in contact with the skeleton for a long time, which may have produced a special reaction."

"Ha, Lao Guo, I think so too!"

"Hehe, the two Taoist priests have probably been happy for nothing."

"I think so too."

Seeing the crowd surrounding the two Taoist priests to inquire about the situation, Su Mingjin stood aside. Zhong Shichang and the other man exchanged a glance and decided to wait until Commander Su was in a better mood before reporting the situation.

……

At Zhu Rihe, in the logistics headquarters, Li Weiguo adjusted his glasses, looked at the latest data report, and smiled.

"All kinds of minerals have been distributed, and each department is ensuring that the performance of various materials is maximized. It's estimated that in a few months, we'll be able to produce another batch of new products!"

Li Weiguo rubbed his temples and did some simple exercises to improve blood circulation after sitting for so long.

He paced back and forth in his office, asking, "Is there anything else important?"

"General Li, since Zhurihe announced the construction of a new city, a large number of self-media personalities, travel bloggers, and military enthusiasts have come to the grasslands. We have detected some suspected intelligence personnel under the guise of tourism."

"Tell me!"

"Okay, Mr. Li, there are many people from the East here, including some Japanese, Koreans, and quite a few from the islands of Vietnam. Although we have been monitoring their movements, we cannot completely block them due to the characteristics of the Zhuri River. In the last two days, some have 'accidentally' entered..."

The truly great man hides in plain sight. To disguise a time portal, such a large project as Zhurihe must have an unimaginable volume of logistics.

The supply of various basic construction materials is relatively minor, but once basic construction is completely kept secret, it becomes impossible to hide the secret.

Therefore, to a limited extent, disrupting the spies' line of sight while maintaining a relaxed exterior and a tight interior became the optimal choice.

"The disguised special agents are mainly there to drive people away. As long as those people haven't detected any secrets, the security bureau will expel them directly."

Li Weiguo bent over during the activity: "Has the publicity department finalized the plans for publicly announcing large-scale infrastructure projects?"

"We've submitted it several times, but the initial review department believes that some of the filming plans pose a risk of exposure, so they've asked us to reduce the filming area."

"Hmm!" Li Weiguo nodded, then got up to do some health exercises: "Has there been any news from the Eagles?"

Assistant Xiao Wang quickly opened the various information documents he had prepared: "General Manager Li said, it's funny, these people just used the same old rhetoric about environmental protection, unscientific practices, and the destruction of the grassland ecosystem, and didn't say anything else."

"Recently, there has been a lot of comparison online, especially on TK."

"contrast?"

"Yes, in comparison, this is related to our little pinks. There was a flood in the Eagles, right? Some little pinks sent videos of our infrastructure, earthquake resistance, flood relief, etc. to TK, which gave the Eagles a headache for a while."

Li Weiguo stopped what he was doing: "Can those things be sent out? Can their information cocoons be released?"

Assistant Xiao Wang chuckled: "I heard they had other troubles, so to divert attention, they chose the easier option!"

Li Weiguo: "..."

He continued pacing, stretching his limbs: "You draft a document too. Instead of focusing their attention on us, let them focus on themselves. This will reduce the pressure on our security efforts!"

"Ha, Mr. Li's insight is brilliant!"

The two were talking when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

The assistant opened the door and saw that it was the person delivering the daily report on exploring other worlds!

Xiao Wang thanked the other party and put the documents away.

Li Weiguo, who was stretching his legs, said directly, "Xiao Wang, you read it!"

"Yes, Mr. Li." Xiao Wang opened the report, and his eyes widened when he saw the information on it.

"What's wrong? Read it!"

"General Manager Li said, the two Taoist priests have done a great service!"

"ah??"
