From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 298: Results of the Elves' Investigation
7 p.m.

After dinner, Lu Heng lay on the sofa in the living room, eating an apple while browsing his phone.

At this time, an international news report began to be broadcast on TV.

A very bloody photo was released in the news, and the bloodiest part was blurred.

Even so, seeing the photos still makes people frown.

“Hello, dear audience friends, I am reporter Wang Mingyang. I am currently in a small town in the suburbs of Chiang Mai, Siam, where the rumored vampire incident took place.

"Tonight, the town is filled with a tense atmosphere. Residents are in a state of panic, and people on the streets are talking about a series of mysterious events that have occurred in recent days.

“According to local residents, a number of bizarre and bloody incidents have occurred in the town at night over the past week, making the nights here particularly eerie.

“Some people claimed to have heard strange cries and screams late at night, and the next day found victims lying on the roadside with marks that looked like bites on their bodies.

“Some people who were walking home at night claimed that they saw mysterious creatures resembling vampires wandering in the night, and the images were terrifying.

“The local investigation bureau has intervened in the investigation and arrested a superpowered person who was addicted to superpower potions. The suspect confessed to the case.

“It turns out that the reason for this bizarre incident was just because of an ordinary medicine.

“Due to the lack of supervision of SPA drugs by the local government, SPA drugs have become rampant. The mutants who have been injected with SPA drugs have become dependent on the drugs and have even sucked the blood of others after losing their minds.

“When the news was broadcast, our reporters had already learned from Siamese officials that they had noticed the harm of super-powered drugs and announced that they would regulate them.

“The harm of super-powered drugs goes far beyond this. We should take this as a warning and firmly resist such illegal products.

"Thank you for watching. I am reporter Wang Mingyang. I will continue to follow the progress of this incident and bring you the latest reports. Goodbye."

The development of events was almost the same as what Lu Heng remembered. It was at this point in time that the super power potion began to spread on a large scale.

Regarding the proliferation of super-powered potions, Lu Heng once wondered if he could stop this from happening with his own strength.

The answer is: No.

If these countries do not ban super-powered drugs themselves, how can we stop them with our own power?

Even in the early days of the proliferation of super-powered drugs, some countries announced the legalization of super-powered drugs in order to increase tax revenue.

Only a few countries, such as Daxia, have a firm attitude towards banning super-powered potions.

Lu Heng did not do nothing. Two months ago, before the super-powered potion began to spread, he issued a warning.

This enabled Daxia to ban super-powered potions two months in advance, which made the situation in the country much better.

At least for now, there has not been an overabundance of super-powered drugs in the country.

Lu Heng had personally seen people with special abilities sucking the blood of their own kind in the street, but the situation in this life shouldn't get to that point.

After washing the dishes, Li Xiuyun washed a basket of grapes and put them on the coffee table. She stood there and watched the news for a while, then solemnly warned:
"You must never touch this stuff, it's too scary. I heard from my former neighbors that someone on Xingyang Street injected this stuff and it made him look like neither a human nor a ghost. It's scary to hear about it."

Lu Heng was naturally aware of the dangers of the super-powered potion. After hearing his mother's words, he smiled and agreed, "I understand."

Li Xiuyun thought for a moment and added, "You should also remind Mu Yu not to touch this kind of thing. No, I'd better tell my sister-in-law and ask her to warn Mu Yu. Such a good girl can't be ruined by this kind of thing."

Su Muyu participated in the super potion incident throughout.

So Lu Heng wasn't too worried, but the elders at home were worried.

……

the next day.

Lu Heng and Su Muyu went to the headquarters of the Longwei Mercenary Group.

The two were honorary captains of Longwei, but the number of times they had been to Longwei headquarters could be counted on one hand.

This time, I heard that Wu Weibing and Tao Yalun were transferred to the Longwei Mercenary Group as captains, and their military ranks were also promoted.

I haven't seen them for such a long time since I returned, so I'd like to take advantage of their promotion to get together.

Not only Wu Weibing and Tao Yalun, all the supernatural warriors who returned from the elf world this time were promoted.

However, after the promotion, everyone went their separate ways.

After all, most of them have been promoted to captains, and they will have to lead the team in the future and can no longer stay in one team.

Chen Zihang's situation is a little different. He is a student of one of the seven national defense universities, and he has already obtained a place in graduate school. As for whether to continue studying, it depends on his choice.

A group of people met at the headquarters of the Longwei Mercenary Group, and then drove to a hotel for dinner.

We just came back from the Abyss Battlefield not long ago. We have all been through a lot, and there were surging emotions when we met.

There were nine people at the party, including Lu Heng and his two children, plus Chen Zihang, Wu Weibing and the other six.

Xie Shien has returned to the capital to visit his wife and has no time to come.

Moreover, Xie Shien is the 027 being hunted by the Creator Organization. He usually needs to hide his identity and will not often appear around Lu Heng and the others unless necessary.

In addition, several of Wu Weibing's men have been transferred to other war zones and have no time to come for the party.

So this time it was a gathering of nine people, and although not all were present, everyone was very happy.

"Everyone is promoted very quickly. They are all lieutenants so quickly." Lu Heng raised his glass to congratulate.

Before this, Wu Weibing, Tao Yalun and others were still sergeants. After returning from the elf world this time, they were promoted to lieutenants, so everyone was very happy.

"We also have to thank Captain Lu for his good leadership." Guard Wu hurriedly complimented.

Tao Yalun teased, "Old Wu has started calling him Captain Lu all the time."

Lu Heng seldom heard people call him Captain Lu, and he was a little uncomfortable with the title at first.

Seeing his friends all become successful, Lu Heng was happy for them.

Chen Zihang spoke relatively little during this gathering.

Lu Heng asked curiously: "What about you? What are your plans for the future?"

Chen Zihang spread his hands and replied, "I haven't thought about it yet, but I didn't hand in the spring water. If I want to join the army, I don't know if I will be excluded."

When Lu Heng heard this, he frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Guard Wu and the others looked at each other, coughed quickly, and tried to change the subject.

Chen Zihang is a student at the National Defense University. He has a different status from Wu Weibing and the others, so he doesn't have to worry too much about what he says. "It's a private gathering, what can't be said?"

Guard Wu had no choice but to answer, "Just tell me. It's no big deal. Except for Chen Zihang, the eight of us were promoted. It has something to do with handing over the Moon Well water."

"Forced?" Lu Heng asked with a frown.

Guard Wu waved his hand and explained, "Not really, and we didn't hand it all in. The instructor did some ideological work on us and asked us to hand in one-tenth of the Moon Well water.

“Also, the organization promised that if we hand over one-tenth of the Moon Well water, we can get a third-level source essence.

"If there is no third-level source quality, the Moon Well water will have to be used to upgrade skills, and the benefits cannot be maximized." So after thinking about it, I agreed to hand over one-tenth of the Moon Well water and got a third-level source quality.

"I have already reached the third class level, and Lao Tao and the others are in a similar situation.

"We all have three ranks, have been promoted to lieutenant, and have been transferred to various places to serve as captains. We all have a bright future."

After listening to this, Lu Heng asked, "That is to say, each of you eight handed over one tenth of the Moon Well water?"

Guard Wu nodded and replied, "That's about the same. I didn't ask in detail, but everyone got promoted, and it's all about the same situation."

In fact, if Lu Heng were in their position, he would probably make the same decision.

Using one tenth of the Moon Well water to exchange for a third-level source essence can also help you get promoted to a higher rank.

This deal is not a loss, as we don't have to hand over all the Moon Well water.

Therefore, Wu Weibing and others are now full of energy and vigor. They have achieved the third rank and have been promoted to lieutenant. Their future is limitless.

This is definitely a good thing.

However, Lu Heng heard something different from this information.

There are eight people, and each of them handed in one tenth of the Moon Well water. The total amount of water handed in is almost enough for one bottle.

I don’t know whether the collected Moon Well water is used for research or has other uses.

Next, everyone chatted while eating hotpot, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

When Lin Zeyu heard them say that they had already obtained the third job level, his eyes widened and he complained, "Is it me who is the only one here who doesn't have the third job level? I am the last one."

Everyone laughed, but didn't take his words seriously.

……

After the party, a day later, Lu Heng prepared to teleport to the elf world to find Tyrese to continue practicing his second unique skill, the Flying Dragon Tracer.

After hearing the arrangement, Su Muyu also wanted to go along.

She also chose a space anchor for her world quest reward. It wasn't because the other two reward options were too bad, but because she promised the Ancient Tree of Knowledge that she would collect the vines of life and bring them back, so she needed a space anchor.

Furthermore, the other two reward options do not include god-level rewards such as adding skill slots.

"Why did you teleport over there? Just to accompany me?" Lu Heng felt that this was not in line with her character.

After all, teleporting there consumes divine energy, and the longer you stay, the more divine energy you consume.

"Aren't you happy to be with you?" Su Muyu smiled with his hands behind his back.

"That's not the case. I just think that you are usually so stingy with your sexual energy. This is not your style." Lu Heng joked.

Su Muyu frowned and snorted, "I'm going to the Moon Shadow Forest. The Nature Messenger can practice and improve in controlling the Life Vines. I can also go to see the Ancient Tree of Knowledge and ask a lot of questions about the Abyss. Last time, I was too tight on time and I still have a lot of questions to ask."

The elven civilization is the one that has resisted the abyss the longest, and the ancient trees of knowledge are the most knowledgeable plants in the world of Quel'dorei.

Given enough time, you can learn a lot from the Ancient Tree of Knowledge.

"alright."

So the two of them teleported to the Quel'dorei world together, and appeared in the hedge garden in Moonshadow Forest.

Seren has returned to the forest to continue his research into natural magic, looking for a way to purify the Abyss.

Seeing Lu Heng and the other man appear, Seren did not show any surprise, and greeted them casually: "You are here so soon?"

Lu Heng looked around and asked, "How long have we been away?"

Seren replied: "Almost three months."

Three months have passed for the world of Quel'dorei.

In fact, only eight days had passed since Lu Heng returned to the main world. The flow of time in the two worlds was different.

This should be the time difference caused by transmission.

After a brief chat with Seren, Lu Heng then asked, "Where is Elder Terris now?"

"It should be in Kolos City. Do you want to go over there?" As soon as Seren heard it, he knew the purpose of Lu Heng's coming. He should be looking for Tyrese to learn swordsmanship.

"Yes, I'm going to Kolos." Lu Heng nodded.

"That's great. Help me take these two golden tree seeds over and find a place to plant them in the city." Seren said as he took out two golden tree seeds and placed them in Lu Heng's palm.

Every day spent in the Quel'dorei world consumes a certain amount of divine energy, so there is no time to travel around here slowly.

After Lu Heng finished talking with Seren, he prepared to leave for Kolos, then looked at Su Muyu and asked, "Do you want to go with us? Or stay in Moon Shadow Forest?"

Su Muyu was teleported here, ready to learn from the ancient tree of knowledge, so she didn't have to go to Kolos City.

She nodded vigorously and replied, "Of course, let's go to Kolos together."

It takes half a day to fly from Moon Shadow Forest to Kolos City.

After Su Muyu had seen the Ancient Tree of Knowledge first, the two set off, riding on the mechanical tiger to fly to Kolos City.

Half a day later, the two arrived at Kolos City, first found Fiona, gave her the golden tree seeds, and then talked about the changes in the elves.

Three months have passed since the last attack by the Blood Clan.

The city of Kolos has changed a lot. The damaged areas have been repaired and some collapsed buildings have been cleaned up, but no new buildings have been built yet. Maybe there are other plans.

Fiona took the two of them for a stroll around the city and briefly explained what had happened in the past three months.

Lu Heng remembered that he had a question before leaving, so he asked, "By the way, did you find out later? Who opened the portal for the Blood Clan?"

Fiona immediately became interested when this matter was mentioned. She took the two of them into the archives room and said:

“We did find some clues about this matter.

“At that time, no one saw who opened the portal for the Blood Clan, because the guards who stayed in the space corridor were killed.

"At the beginning, we couldn't even find the bodies of the guards. It was not until we cleared the collapsed buildings in the city that we found several bodies under the bricks and stones. We confirmed that they were the guards of the space corridor."

After hearing this information, Lu Heng asked, "Did you find any clues from these guards?"

Fiona took out a record, handed it to Lu Heng, and replied, "We did find some clues. There are claw marks on the bodies of these guards, like those of wild beasts. It is certain that they were not caused by elves.

"The only elf who can cause such claw marks is the druid. But druids love peace and would never do such a thing. In addition, there are very few druids in our elf tribe. We have also investigated and they can be ruled out as suspects."

"Besides Druid, is there anything else possible?" Lu Heng continued to ask.

"If it wasn't a wild beast, there is another possibility, that is the dark werewolf. We also compared the claw marks, and they are indeed very similar to the wounds caused by the dark werewolf. So, we suspect that a dark werewolf has sneaked into the city of Kolos, but we haven't found any useful clues." Fiona said as she turned to the last page of the record and pointed the content on it to Lu Heng.
