Bai Chenglong didn't dare to act rashly, he and his colleagues stood a little farther away, looking at the equipment located in the center of the clearing.

And Qiao Qiao, holding a strangely shaped pistol in his hand, was ready to go.

Asano Riko saw that in the middle of the trees, some dark shadow suddenly appeared.

But only for a moment.

Whoosh –

When it was difficult to catch with the naked eye, the black shadow had already come to the other side.

"Two hundred years ago, there was a great scientist in the country of Mi who tried to understand whether the thunder falling in the sky was the same thing as the electricity that everyone uses on a daily basis."

So, on a thunderstormy night, he released a kite with an iron key hanging from its lead.

"At this moment, a thunderbolt struck the kite, and the lightning passed through the kite string, condensed on the iron key, and was introduced into the capacitor."

"Through this research, he finally learned the secret of thunder, that is, the thunder in the sky, and the electricity made by people, are the same thing."

"Although the story was later thought to be apocryphal, and the scientist himself did not admit anything similar, many people still want to believe that this kind of behavior did not hesitate to pay with their lives in order to obtain the truth."

"This great scientist's name is Benjamin. Franklin, I have a lot of respect for him. ”

Qiao Qiao raised the gun in his hand as he spoke.

Whoosh –

The dark shadow streaked through a ray of light.

Rushed to the capacitor.

"Therefore, the thunder beast that used to absorb thunder and lightning as nutrients will naturally absorb the thunder and lightning made by humans, and for the thunder beast, this behavior that tends to thunder and lightning is closer to instinct."

Ariko Asano's vision saw that this thunder beast was not large, like an overweight cat, and its movements were so agile that it was almost impossible to catch with the naked eye.

It rushed to the live device.

It was at this time that Qiao Qiao fired.

It was not the usual large-caliber pistol, but a pistol with a huge muzzle that seemed to be equipped with some kind of device.

The trigger was pulled, and two bullets with leads flew out.

The speed of the bullet is slow, and there is even an electric current passing through it.

"It's now."

Qiao Qiao shouted.

At the same time, Bai Cheng Ryuya's side cut off the power supply.

The current on the device disappeared suddenly, and only the bullets fired by Qiao Qiao were left in the open space.

The Thunderbeast lost its target, but soon, attracted by the current on the bullet, turned around.

Zizizi——

The thunderbeast rushed towards the lightning.

But for a moment, it seemed to realize that this was a trap.

Turn around immediately.

Qiao Qiao's other hand at this time had already raised a huge revolver.

Bang –

The blaster burst out, but didn't hit the Thunderbeast head-on.

You can see that the fragments that condensed the spiritual power have slightly rubbed against the hind legs of the thunder beast.

Whoosh –

The shadow quickly ran towards the jungle and vanished.

"Ran away......"

Bai Chenglong hadn't come back to his senses yet.

Everything that just happened was only a matter of seconds, and before you knew it had begun, it was already over.

"Teacher, this is ......"

Asano Riko looked at the strangely shaped weapon in Qiao Qiao's hand.

"This? This is a taser, also known as a stun gun, which is a type of non-lethal weapon. ”

He gently pressed a button on the pistol, and the fired bullet was quickly retracted by the lead.

"The use of a bullet with a lead to transmit an electric current to the target, thereby electrocuting the target and incapacitating them, is something I specially prepared for some humans who have been dominated by strange beings."

"But it's a pity, I have to use professional weapons, and it's a bit troublesome to carry."

"It would be much easier if it could be made into ammunition."

"Can this be made into a bullet?"

Asako Asano doesn't know very well.

I feel that this kind of bullet that makes people electrocute as soon as it is fired seems to only exist in science fiction works.

"It's a shame to let it run."

More than that, it was the thunder beast that escaped.

"It's okay, it's part of the plan."

Qiao Qiao put away the stun gun, came to the location where the thunder beast had been shot just now, and squatted down slightly.

On the concrete floor, in addition to the fragments of bullets, there was a trace of viscous liquid.

The liquid was evaporating and emitting white gas.

It won't be long before it's gone.

"It's ...... Blood? ”

Asako Asano also saw the unknown liquid.

"Hmm."

Qiao Qiao stretched out his hand and gently touched the blood.

"According to the records of the association, the vast majority of thunder beasts have a demand cycle of between six and fifteen days, and the median is seven days.

"So, I deduce that this thunderbeast isn't just drawing power for itself, the extra part is for other purposes."

Hearing Qiao Qiao's words, Asano Ariko suddenly realized.

"What do you mean, teacher, are there other thunder beasts?"

"Quite possibly."

Qiao Qiao nodded and looked into the depths of the mountain forest.

"So, I need to track its trajectory and find where it's hiding."

While speaking, Qiao Qiao had already begun to channel.

Buzz –

Countless images emerge.

Walking through the dark forest, through the starlight, Qiao Qiao saw a building.

“？”

However, when he tried to keep going back to see what was inside the building, the psychic scene was interrupted.

"Anti-psychic enchantment?"

Although Qiao Qiao could channel again and prepare to target this anti-psychic enchantment, the thunder beast's blood had already evaporated in the channeling just now.

"Strange."

Qiao Qiao muttered in a low voice.

Anti-psychic enchantments are not a strange thing, since there are psychics, there are naturally anti-psychics, just like divination and anti-divination.

Because it's not just the Soul Killer who can channel and divination, but many youkai can do the same.

Therefore, in places where the Soul Killers are concentrated, such as the Soul Killer Association, various shrines, and temples, there will be enchantments that counter these technologies.

But the Thunderbeast is clearly not a weird with this power, and it usually doesn't think about it.

Then the anti-psychic enchantment that has now appeared is very suspicious.

What's more, the texture brought by the anti-psychic enchantment just now, Qiao Qiao felt that it didn't seem to belong to the methods of the soul exterminators of those factions he had seen.

With some exotic flavors.

"Are there any big families in the mountains around here?"

Qiao Qiao asked Hakujo Ryuya.

"Big family? No, at most there is a small village where a few families live. ”

Bai Chenglong was naturally confused.

But at this time, his colleague, the man in his thirties, suddenly slapped his thigh as if he remembered something.

"Speaking of which, the old house of the Sakuraba family should be around here, right?"

"Sakuraba's house?"

Qiao Qiao frowned slightly.
