I ruled a million soul beasts

Werewolf games are generally similar to Werewolf, and are also very popular among young people in this world.

Zheng Duo knew it after seeing his classmates in school play it, but he just didn't understand why Zhuang Han suddenly mentioned it.

Before he could answer, Liu Ning on the side scolded: "Zhuang Han, even if you talk nonsense, it depends on the occasion."

Why are we talking about the werewolf game at this time? Although Zhuang Han is very capable, his casual attitude really gives Liu Ning a headache.

She turned around and smiled bitterly at Zheng Duo: "Don't be offended, Mr. Zheng, he always speaks without thinking."

Zheng Duo smiled and didn't care.

Later, Liu Ning took Zheng Duo to the main building of the observatory, the research institute building.

The daily work of supervising the surrounding environment and calculating various data is carried out here.

Three researchers in white coats received Zheng Duo.

After a brief introduction, Zheng Duo knew the identity of the other party.

The middle-aged man among the three is named Zhu Congwen. He is a professor at the first higher education institution in Qingcheng. He has a high reputation in Qingcheng. It is he who leads the team to conduct observation work at this observation station.

Another woman wearing black-rimmed glasses is named Yao Jie, and she is Zhu Congwen's assistant.

The last person is cute and well-behaved, with refreshing short hair that reaches her ears, and a stack of information in her arms. She is the intern here, named Jiang Xian.

The other two were nothing, except that the girl named Jiang Xian always seemed familiar to Zheng Duo.

His eyes stayed on her for a few more seconds. Jiang Xian's plain face turned red and she lowered her head in shyness.

Zheng Duo shook his head and could only give up.

"The area around the observation station is not peaceful recently, and spirit beasts are active frequently. Captain Zheng has to work hard to maintain the daily working order of the observation station."

Zhu Congwen was engaged in research and was not as well-informed as Liu Ning. He was somewhat suspicious of Zheng Duo's appointment.

After all, he was too young, not much different from Jiang Xian. At this age, in Zhu Congwen's mind, he could only have the strength of the embryonic realm.

I hope it’s not the second generation from a big family who comes to improve my grades.

But thinking about the importance of this matter, Zhu Congwen thought that the Soul Cultivator would not be so reckless. Since Zheng Duo was sent here, it shows that he really has some ability.

Looking at Zheng Duo with cautious eyes, his thin face neither seemed close nor too distant.

Zheng Duo looked solemn. He always admired scholars, "Professor Zhu, don't worry, I will do my best to prevent external factors from interfering with the progress of the observation."

Zhu Congwen nodded, then said no more and led the two of them away.

"Professor Zhu has always been cold on the outside but hot on the inside. Just get used to it."

Liu Ning smiled and smoothed things over, fearing that Zheng Duo would be angry because of this.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Duo didn't care at all. What he cared about was what Zhu Congwen just said, "Have the activities of spirit beasts around the observation station become more frequent recently?"

"Yes, since the cave appeared, there have been many soul beasts wandering around the observation station. At first, there were only some one-star soul beasts, but gradually, there were more two-star soul beasts, and even a three-star one appeared. It's just a pity that

, let it escape..."

"Cave? Where is it? Take me to see it."

Since Zhu Congwen was promised to do a good job in safety protection of the observation station, these hidden dangers must be eliminated one by one.

Could it be that there is something in this cave that can attract soul beasts?

After a while, Zheng Duo followed Liu Ning and several other members of the patrol team to a flat area outside the observation station where half of the mountain had just been dug.

"The observation station was originally planned to be expanded, but unexpectedly a strange hole was dug and the construction was stopped."

Liu Ning introduced Zheng Duo.

Zheng Duo walked closer and looked at the cave, which was a few people wide. It was pitch dark and quiet, and the light could only shine a few inches to the entrance of the cave. If you throw a stone and listen to the echo, it is clear and rippling. There must be something inside.

There is no obvious smell coming from inside. If you sniff lightly, you can only smell the freshly cultivated soil around it.

No matter how you look at it, it is an ordinary cave, but it is hidden in the mountain for no reason, so it is somewhat strange.

"Have you ever been in there?" he turned around and asked.

"Qiu Zhongyi led a team in once."

After Liu Ning finished speaking, everyone looked at Qiu Zhongyi.

Qiu Zhongyi hesitated for a while, then said with a blush: "Back to Captain Zheng, the overall trend of this cave is downward. I don't know where it leads. We probably went more than fifty meters deep, and then we felt a repulsive force and retreated."

.”

"Originally, I wanted to wait for Captain Lin from the White Tiger Hall to come back from Qingcheng before making a long-term plan, but I didn't expect that they would be dismissed."

Zhuang Han put his hands behind his head and said intentionally or unintentionally. Liu Ning glared at him, and he smiled with a sly expression, but continued: "Captain Zheng, how about I go down with you to take a look?"

He had long wanted to go in and find out what was going on, but the White Tiger Hall had withdrawn its troops and Liu Ning kept blocking him and not letting him go down.

"Let's wait for tomorrow. It's already very late today. Let's go back and rest first. We'll gather here early tomorrow morning."

Zheng Duo looked far away at the flaming clouds in the sky and was not in a hurry.

During dinner in the evening, Zheng Duo saw Jiang Xian again in the cafeteria.

She eats very little and almost all of her food is vegetarian.

Zheng Duo sat in his seat and watched quietly, watching her walk out of the restaurant after finishing her meal.

Zhuang Han saw him and seemed to have discovered something interesting. He came over and said, "Captain Zheng has good eyesight. I thought Jiang Xian was very beautiful early on. If he hadn't been wearing a white coat all the time, he would have been even more charming."

For a person like Zhuang Han who was familiar with everything and blurted out everything, Zheng Duo had no choice but to smile bitterly, shake his head, and leave in a hurry after finishing his meal.

night.

It was pitch dark in the mountains and forests.

There were only a few streetlights outside the building.

The street lamps spread a pale and feeble light, echoing the cold moonlight, illuminating the shadows of the dancing trees outside the observation station.

The crisp chirping of insects around them was singing tirelessly, but it was not clear where they were.

In the room, Zheng Duo sat quietly for a while, then got up to wash up. Passing by the window, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a figure downstairs.

Zheng Duo looked carefully and found that it was Zhuang Han.

Zhuang Han stood under the streetlight, waved to him, and pointed to the mountains.

This seems to mean that he wants to go into the pothole to find out what's going on.

Now that he had a general understanding of this man's temper, Zheng Duo didn't want to pay attention to him, so he closed the window and drew the curtains.

After a while, I came to the window and looked down. The downstairs was empty.

When Zheng Duo saw this, he stopped paying attention and just lay on bed to rest. He had been camping out for the past few days and hadn't fully relaxed for a long time.

The next day.

When the sunlight outside the window shines in the direction.

Zheng Duo woke up slowly.

After a little tidying up, he went to the cave outside the observation station as agreed.

Liu Ning and the others had arrived a long time ago, but the place was in a messy pile, not as orderly as before.

"What's wrong?"

Zheng Duo saw the horrified and solemn expressions on everyone's faces. When he got closer, he found a body lying on the ground.

It was Qiu Zhongyi, the deputy captain of the inspection team.
