Chapter 137 Stealing the Flesh
Chapter 137 Stealing the Flesh
The sky was a deep blue, but a cold autumn wind was blowing.
Outside the window of the Unnatural Bureau, a giant black cloud floats silently.
Wu Yun sat on the edge of the dark cloud, studying the Qi Dan in his hand while listening to the meeting inside the window.
The rotating secretary, Diao Sanjiao, squatted beside the boss, guarding his teacup, and also pricked up his ears to listen to the contents of the meeting... This was the morning meeting of the Non-Natural Bureau, which contained a large amount of information from all over the world every day, much more comprehensive than what was broadcast on the news.
Although I didn't understand a lot of the content... Diao Sanjiao still tried his best to understand it.
After all... the boss likes to hear that!
Naturally, the sable immortal official should also listen more and align himself with the boss.
"...The situation is changing every day."
"The Spirit Investment Office and Pulin Bookstore have invested a large number of immortal peaches and elixirs into the mortal realm."
"Currently, it seems that the most affected are the various demon immortals who have passed through the divine bloodline, whose cultivation levels have generally improved!"
"Multiple attacks have occurred at livestock farms in various locations."
"The ministry has issued a document requiring us to strengthen prevention and control measures in this area..."
Gu Qingfeng, seated in the center of the conference table, relayed the message.
Qin Wei, Li Nuanling, and others sitting next to them quickly took notes in their notebooks.
"...The abilities of demon immortals are all different, varied and diverse, there are all kinds."
"Last night in Chongshan City, a silverback gorilla crashed into a commercial bank like a cannonball, smashing through concrete walls and the vault door. It was more efficient than an armor-piercing bullet, and it managed to crash into the vault!"
"Fortunately, there wasn't much cash or gold in the vault, so the loss was still manageable."
"But this kind of thing serves as a wake-up call for us. The enemy is becoming increasingly diverse and complex. We must conduct advance assessments based on local conditions and proactively deploy defenses..."
……
Above the dark clouds outside the window, Wu Yun held a Qi Dan in his hand, his heart filled with emotion.
"A demon immortal?"
"Those who followed the path of divine bloodline were the first to benefit from their cultivation level?"
The demons and immortals Wu Yun had encountered, apart from Flying Tiger Dou Dou, were a few strange snakes, all of which were quite eerie, and he never had a good impression of this path.
Then Gu Qingfeng inside continued speaking.
"As required by the ministry, we need to establish a system of liaison points for officials."
"We will conduct a risk assessment of all units and enterprises in the city as soon as possible, and then, based on the risk coefficient, assign these units and enterprises to all officials as contact points."
"Each celestial official may be assigned to a dozen or so units and enterprises."
"These dozen or so organizations and businesses can contact this celestial official immediately if they encounter any danger..."
The celestial officials present all nodded in agreement, raising no objections.
Society changes extremely quickly, and the response from the Non-Natural Department is equally rapid. Every day, they are bombarded with numerous and urgent tasks, which they need not object to but simply execute.
……
In the conference room of the Flying Fish Canned Food Factory.
Wang Yaozu and He Lanqi sat in the center, their expressions somewhat strange.
They had just arrived at the factory, hadn't had time to learn anything, didn't know many people, and hadn't even cleaned the office yet, when they were invited to a meeting... Was it that urgent?
The middle-aged bald man sitting to Wang Yaozu's right gave an awkward smile.
"Director Wang, Chairman He, let me introduce myself first. I am Chen Ming, the director of the cannery."
"I originally planned to hold a welcome party for everyone this morning."
"But if there is urgent work, please come over first and we can handle it together."
"Here's the thing, we just received a notification from the Qichuan City Non-Natural Affairs Bureau that at 5:00 AM this morning, our factory's truck transporting fresh meat was attacked on the highway."
"The meat is gone, and the driver... is dead."
In the conference room, a dozen or so people looked up and stared wide-eyed when they heard this.
"What do you mean?"
"What are we going to do today if we don't have any meat? Should we stop production?"
"Was there a car accident?"
Chen Ming took out a photocopy of the non-natural bureau notice and had his secretary distribute it to everyone present.
"The Non-Natural Bureau also sent us the video recording."
"Take a look, everyone."
The secretary turned on the conference TV, and everyone looked over. The recording began with footage from a dashcam showing a car braking suddenly at night.
As the vehicle's headlights illuminated, the road ahead was clearly blocked by a large, fallen tree!
Amidst the driver's cursing, a loud bang came from overhead.
Then a huge, hairy hand reached down from the roof of the car and instantly smashed through the windshield, blocking the dashcam camera's lens... The video abruptly ended.
Factory director Chen Ming's face was also quite pale.
"Everyone, please take a look at the notice."
"The car only had a broken windshield and a broken dashcam, so there's nothing seriously wrong with it."
"The key issue is that the driver is gone."
"The eight tons of fresh meat in the truck are gone too."
It took the people present several minutes to slowly process their strange emotions.
The middle-aged woman in charge of legal affairs spoke first.
"From this point of view alone, there's nothing we need to do."
"The car was rented, the driver was from a cold chain company, and we still have to pay for these eight tons of fresh meat."
“It was clearly stated in the contract that once the goods are loaded onto the truck, the risk is ours.”
The finance director muttered as he did the accounting.
"Eight tons of fresh meat... We finally managed to negotiate a price of fifteen yuan per kilogram... This truckload of meat was worth forty-eight hundred thousand yuan... and it's all gone in an instant..."
The head of the production department also looked grim.
"We have to stop work for today."
The purchasing department director asked the most crucial question.
"Will this kind of thing happen often in the future?"
"Can our fresh meat supply be stable?"
How much will the shipping cost increase?
He Lanqi and Wang Yaozu exchanged a glance, both frowning as they looked at the notice from the Bureau of Unnatural Affairs in their hands, noticing the bright red official seal at the bottom.
Is it really that difficult to run a business these days?
I just arrived at the factory, barely settled in, and this kind of thing happened?
Silence fell over the meeting room.
……
Huff...woo...
The wind high in the sky blows through the drifting clouds.
On the surface of the giant black cloud, a dozen or so minks were busy at work.
Diao Heihei and Diao Baibai were on the watchtower overlooking the great formation, observing the speed of spirit gathering in all directions.
"Waaaaah, waaaaah?"
"Awoooooo?"
The current formation resembles a curved tentacle, embracing the entire black cloud. A ring of suction cups on the tentacle points outward, absorbing spiritual energy from all directions.
Each suction cup receives a continuous influx of spiritual energy!
But they both felt that the spiritual energy coming from the east was more abundant, denser, and more powerful.
The two minks immediately turned the steering wheel together, one on the left and one on the right, and guided the giant cloud eastward.
Below the observation deck, the massive black cloud was divided into several sections.
In the pool of spiritual energy, Diao Fangfang and Diao Yuanyuan were busy catching spiritual energy. With a wave of their spirit-detecting sticks, they scooped up a string of spiritual energy!
In the kitchen area, Diao Huhu was busy steaming rice and cooking braised pork. The aroma was already wafting through the air, and you could smell it all over the cloud!
The command room was empty. It turned out that the boss, along with his rotating secretary, Diao Sanjiao, were still at the Qidan laboratory, busy researching Qidan.
And so, the busy, giant cloud, facing the wind in the sky, flew eastward.
"Oh?
"Go east?"
"Are we going out to sea?"
Wu Yun glanced at the cell phone on the table next to him... There's no cell phone signal at sea.
"I'll be right back. It doesn't matter if we're temporarily out of contact."
He held a Qidan in his left hand and opened his Qidan research notes with his right.
