Truth is everywhere within range

Chapter 239 Chapter 239. Non-lethal weapons

"!"

Baicheng Long immediately did not dare to act rashly. He and his colleagues stood a little further away, looking at the equipment in the center of the open space.

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

Ariko Asano saw some dark shadow suddenly appear among the trees.

But only for a moment.

Whoosh——

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

"Two hundred years ago, there was a great scientist in the United States. He was trying to understand whether the thunder falling in the sky was the same thing as the electricity everyone used in daily life."

"So, on a thunderstorm night, he flew the kite, and there was an iron key hanging on the kite's lead."

"At this time, a bolt of lightning struck the kite. The lightning passed through the kite string, condensed on the iron key, and was introduced into the capacitor."

"Through this research, he finally understood the secret of thunder, which means that the thunder in the sky is the same thing as the electricity produced by people."

"Although after the incident, this story was considered to be a fabrication, and the scientist himself did not admit similar things, many people are still willing to believe this behavior at the cost of their lives in order to obtain the truth."

"This great scientist is called Benjamin Franklin. I respect him very much."

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

Whoosh——

The black shadow flashed across a streak of lightning.

Rushed towards the capacitor.

"So, in the past, thunder beasts that needed to absorb thunder and lightning as nutrients would naturally absorb the thunder and lightning created by humans. For thunder beasts, this behavior toward thunder and lightning is closer to instinct."

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

It rushes toward live equipment.

At this moment, Qiao Qiao fired.

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

Pulling the trigger, two bullets with fuses flew out.

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

"It's now."

Qiao Qiao shouted.

At the same time, Baicheng Long also cut off the power supply.

The current on the device suddenly disappeared, leaving only the bullets fired by Qiao Qiao still carrying current in the open space.

The Thunder Beast lost its target, but soon, it was attracted by the electricity on the bullet and turned around.

Sizzling——

The thunder beast rushed towards Lightning.

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

Turn around immediately.

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

Bang——

The explosive bomb came out of the barrel, but did not hit the Ultralisk head-on.

You can see the fragments of condensed spiritual power slightly grazing the Thunder Beast's hind legs.

Whoosh——

The black shadow quickly ran towards the jungle and disappeared.

"Ran."

Baicheng Long has not recovered yet.

What just happened lasted only a few seconds, and it was over before I even realized it had started.

"Teacher, this is..."

Ariko Asano looked at the strange-shaped weapon in Qiao Qiao's hand.

"This? This is a Taser, also known as a stun gun. It is a type of non-lethal weapon."

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

"Through the bullet with the lead, the current is passed over, causing the target to receive an electric shock and lose the ability to move. This is what I specially prepared to target some humans who are possessed by weird things and control their bodies."

"But it's a pity. We have to use professional weapons, which is a bit troublesome to carry."

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

"Can this be made into a bullet?"

Ariko Asano is not sure.

It feels like this kind of bullet that electrocutes people as soon as it is fired seems to only exist in science fiction works.

"It's such a shame that it got away."

Compared to that, the fact that the Thunder Beast escaped was more concerning.

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

Qiao Qiao put away his stun gun, came to the spot where the Thunder Beast had been shot, and squatted down slightly.

On the cement floor, in addition to bullet fragments, there was a trace of sticky liquid.

The liquid is evaporating and white gas is coming out.

It won't be long before it disappears completely.

"Is this blood?"

Ariko Asano also saw the unknown liquid.

"Um."

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

"According to the association's records, the demand cycle for electricity for most Thunder Beasts is between six and fifteen days, with the median being seven days. If the Thunder Beast just attacked here yesterday, it actually does not have one today. Reason to come.”

"So, I infer that this Thunder Beast does not just draw electricity for itself, the extra part is for other purposes."

After hearing Qiao Qiao's words, Asano Ariko suddenly had a realization.

"Teacher, what you mean is that there are other thunder beasts?"

"Probably."

Qiao Qiao nodded and looked deep into the forest.

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

While talking, Qiao Qiao had already started channeling.

Buzz——

Countless images emerged.

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

"?"

However, when he tried to continue backtracking to see what was in the building, the psychic scene was interrupted.

"An anti-psychic barrier?"

Although Qiao Qiao could channel one more time and be prepared to deal with this anti-channelling barrier, the blood of the thunder beast had completely evaporated during the channeling just now.

"strangeness."

Qiao Qiao murmured in a low voice.

Anti-psychic enchantment is not a strange thing. Since there is channeling, there is naturally anti-psychic, just like divination and anti-divination.

Because not only spiritualists can channel spirits and divination, but many monsters can also do it.

Therefore, in places where spirit exterminators gather, such as the Spirit Exorcist Association, various shrines, and temples, there will be barriers to counteract these techniques.

But Ultralisk is clearly not a freak with such power, nor would one normally think of it.

Then the anti-psychic enchantment that appears now is very questionable.

More importantly, Qiao Qiao felt that the quality brought about by the anti-psychic barrier just now did not seem to belong to the methods of the spiritual exterminators of those factions he had seen.

With some exotic flavor.

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

Qiao Qiao asked Baicheng Longye.

"A big family? No, at most there is a small village with several families living in it."

Baichenglong was naturally confused.

But at this time, his colleague, a man in his thirties, suddenly seemed to remember something and slapped his thigh.

"Speaking of which, the Sakuraba family's old house should be nearby, right?"

"The Sakuraba family?"

Qiao Qiao frowned slightly.
