Chapter 42 Developments
After observing Li Gui, Shen Liang took Wang Xiaoming and others back to the ground and came to Zhao Jianguo's office.
“Professor, you guys rest here for a while, I'll call Captain Zhao over.” After Shen Liang finished speaking, he left.
Wang Xiaoming did not wait long. The door of the office opened again, and Zhao Jianguo appeared at the door.
“Professor Wang, I'm sorry, I'm too busy today and I really didn't entertain you well.” Zhao Jianguo came in and apologized first.
Wang Xiaoming shook his head and said: "It's nothing. Dealing with supernatural events is the most important thing."
After the two chatted for a few words, they started to get down to business.
"Professor, I came to you this time to extract the supernatural materials of will-o'-the-wisp. After all, you are an expert in this field and the first person to discover and utilize the supernatural materials of will-o'-the-wisp." After Zhao Jianguo finished speaking, he looked at Li Jun standing aside.
“Li Jun, speaking of which, you are also a major contributor to the invention of supernatural gunpowder. Without your contribution of your own blood, there would be no supernatural gunpowder.”
After listening to Zhao Jianguo's praise, Li Jun's cheeks turned slightly red, and after a while he only said one sentence: "These are all the credit of the professor."
“Haha!” Zhao Jianguo laughed at Li Jun's answer: “Everyone knows the professor's contribution, and your contribution will not be forgotten by the superiors.”
“You will be promoted to military rank soon!”
Hearing that he was about to be promoted to military rank again, Li Jun was stunned.
After he became a ghost master who controlled two fierce ghosts, he was promoted to a military rank once, and now he is going to be promoted again, so wouldn't he become...
Zhao Jianguo, as the captain of the headquarters, has a wide network of contacts and a lot of information. Li Jun's matter has been decided. The final appointment will be in the next few days. Telling him now does not violate the regulations.
"Professor, the idea of our headquarters is for you to move here directly and take charge of the extraction of will-o'-the-wisps and the research and development of supernatural gunpowder at the headquarters."
Zhao Jianguo looked at Wang Xiaoming who was deep in thought and said tentatively.
Given Wang Xiaoming's current status, the headquarters will not forcefully ask him to do things, but will only use cooperation and discussion.
"No problem," Wang Xiaoming nodded and agreed. He originally thought so, but now that the headquarters proposed it, he was naturally not prepared to refuse.
“I also need to bring over those experimenters who study supernatural gunpowder with me.”
Faced with Wang Xiaoming's request, Zhao Jianguo said it was no problem and took the initiative to take over the relocation task.
The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves for a while.
Zhao Jianguo took out a bag of tea from the drawer of his desk, came to the coffee table and said, "This is good tea I got from the minister, you can try it."
As he spoke, he began to boil water to make tea, and after a while he poured a cup of tea for each of them.
The tea soup is clear and exudes a refreshing fragrance. Although Wang Xiaoming doesn't understand tea, he can still tell that this tea is extraordinary.
Li Jun picked up the tea cup curiously, regardless of the fact that it was freshly brewed hot tea. He took a sip and then smacked his lips, savoring the taste.
have to!
Meet a man who chews peonies.
Zhao Jianguo's mouth couldn't help but twitch, and he complained in his heart.
He could only pour another cup of tea for Li Jun. Seeing that he was about to take another sip, he quickly spoke to persuade:
“This is not how you drink tea. You have to drink it slowly and savor it carefully.”
Li Jun smiled when he saw this, put down his tea cup and said, "I can't learn what you said."
Wang Xiaoming had a smile on his face when he saw this. He just picked up the tea cup and sniffed it gently, but did not drink it.
He does not have Li Jun's iron mouth and steel stomach. Although he has reached the limit of the human body, he is still within the scope of human beings and can also be scalded by hot water.
As a ghost controller who controls two powerful ghosts, Li Jun's body has long been different from that of ordinary people, and his sense of pain is also much weakened. A mere 100-degree boiling water is just a sprinkling of water for him. Several people took the opportunity to drink tea and chatted.
“Professor Wang, what do you think of the current trend of supernatural outbreaks?” Zhao Jianguo said as if casually.
At present, governments around the world have determined that the frequency of supernatural events is increasing. According to experts, in another two years, the entire world will fall into a prison where evil spirits are rampant.
Many people who know the truth are pessimistic about the future.
Although governments around the world can still maintain stability in the real world, the upper echelons have split into two factions.
They are the despair faction and the hope faction. The despair faction believes that the end of the world will come as scheduled. Human beings cannot fight against the evil ghosts, and those who become ghost masters will only survive.
The Hope School is a firm optimism. Human beings are indeed unable to compete with evil spirits, but human beings have their own courage and praise. As long as they work hard, the future of human beings must be promising.
Li Jun sat aside and looked at Wang Xiaoming. He was also very interested in this issue. As a ghost controller, he understood the terror of ghosts better.
Under the gaze of the two people, Wang Xiaoming slowly raised his head, looked into their eyes, and said seriously:
"The emergence of evil spirits is both a disaster and an opportunity. A temporary failure is nothing. You will know the result in the end. The ancients could persevere, why can't we? I am full of confidence in the future of mankind. I believe that by then evil ghosts will no longer exist. It's a disaster.”
Wang Xiaoming's words resounded in Zhao Jianguo's mind like morning bells and evening drums. He could feel Wang Xiaoming's belief when he spoke, which was a courageous belief to move forward.
This makes Zhao Jianguo, who was originally exhausted mentally and physically due to the many supernatural incidents that broke out in the south, feel inexplicably excited.
Li Jun was slightly excited. He believed in Wang Xiaoming and looked forward to the future that Wang Xiaoming said.
"Well said, let's drink to the future of mankind." Zhao Jianguo raised the tea cup in his hand and drank it in one gulp, like a heroic general.
Wang Xiaoming and Li Jun smiled at each other, raised their teacups together and drank.
“I'm not afraid of making fun of you. During this period, the headquarters has lost a lot of ghost masters, and some ghost masters are on the verge of resurrecting the ghosts. I'm under a lot of pressure!”
“Now that I have heard what the professor said, I am full of energy.”
Everyone gets drunk without being drunk. Zhao Jianguo became drunk after just drinking a cup of tea.
Dajing City,
The top floor office of Ping An Building.
Mr. Fei sat at his desk and looked at the latest information in his hand. His brows were relaxed and his mouth was smiling. But for some reason, Mr. Fei's brows furrowed at the end, as if he was in trouble.
The intelligence at hand is that the military organized a large number of ghost masters to attack the supernatural volcano, which resulted in the sacrifice of many city leaders in the south, and the relationship between many of the leaders participating in the operation and the government fell into a freezing point.
This is good news for WeChat Moments. The city leader is dissatisfied with the headquarters, which just gives WeChat Moments an opportunity. Win over the person in charge, open a ghost master club, and let the power of the circle of friends spread to the south.
It's just that one supernatural item was highly praised in the intelligence, and that was the ghost-exorcizing ringtone invented by Wang Xiaoming.
Not only can it be used at no cost to resist attacks by ghosts, but it can also bounce back attacks from ghosts when the ringtone is broken, providing opportunities for the ghost controller to escape. It is simply an artifact to fight against supernatural events.
It's a pity that this artifact is not in the circle of friends, but in the headquarters. With an artifact like the ghost-expelling ringtone, it will be much harder for the circle of friends to win over these people in charge.
Mr. Fei knows these ghost controllers very well. On the surface, they are at odds with the headquarters, but in fact they are raising prices. They just want to get more benefits from the headquarters.
The headquarters can come up with ghost exorcism ringtones, but if the circle of friends does not come up with corresponding supernatural items, it will probably be difficult to win over these ghost masters.
"It's really disgusting. This is obviously a good opportunity to expand the influence of our circle of friends. We can't just give it up." As an excellent businessman, Mr. Fei was not prepared to give up the opportunity in front of him.
“Come here, ask Wu Yue to come to my office.” Mr. Fei called his secretary and ordered.
