Chapter 959 Power Generation
"No, I didn't understand. What do you mean?" Li Xuan looked at Feng Qiuyan with confusion.
Feng Qiuyan explained, "Because our families were close, I often played behind Sister Ling when I was little, like a little tail. One time, I followed Sister Ling to the nearby beach. At that time, forbidden creatures rarely appeared, so it was just the two of us playing at the beach."
After a moment's hesitation, Feng Qiuyan continued, "I vaguely remember a forbidden creature bursting out of the sea and charging towards us on the beach. It carried a particularly fishy smell, and as soon as I smelled it, my head became dizzy and I felt like I was about to pass out. At that moment, I vaguely saw Sister Ling transform into a terrifying form and charge towards the forbidden creature, and then I fainted."
"When I woke up, I saw Sister Ling right next to me, but I didn't see any creatures that had broken the forbidden rules. When I mentioned the creatures, Sister Ling looked confused and asked if I was too tired from playing and had a nightmare after falling asleep." Feng Qiuyan said with a strange look on her face, "But I don't think it was a dream. It's just that I didn't find any traces of dimensional creatures nearby at the time, so I kept it to myself and didn't tell anyone."
"How old were you then?" Li Xuan asked.
"About three or four years old." Feng Qiuyan said.
"Where is Qin Ling?" Li Xuan asked again.
"Thirteen or fourteen." Feng Qiuyan thought for a moment before answering.
"It's normal for a three or four-year-old to have wild thoughts. Maybe you were just half asleep. If Qin Ling was thirteen or fourteen, she shouldn't have reached the legendary level yet, right? There's basically no possibility of her using a companion pet..." Li Xuan analyzed.
"I know all this." Feng Qiuyan said with a strange look on his face.
"If you are really sure that you are not mistaken, then there is something wrong with Qin Ling." Zhou Wen said.
Feng Qiuyan said, "I can't be sure whether I was dreaming at that time, so I would like to ask you to help me confirm whether I was dreaming at that time."
"How can we be sure of this? We can't just pull Qin Ling over, beat her up, and ask her if she can turn into a monster, right? Even if we dare to ask, she won't admit it, right?" Li Xuan said.
"I know this is not an easy task, but I can only ask you for help," Feng Qiuyan said.
"Okay, let's try our best. There's no guarantee that we can find out the truth." Zhou Wen said after thinking for a while.
Feng Qiuyan was overjoyed, but then said to Zhou Wen, "Coach, I want this to be a secret. No matter what the outcome is, don't let anyone else know."
"I understand." Zhou Wen agreed.
"Old Zhou, how do you plan to investigate this matter?" After Feng Qiuyan arranged for the two to stay, she went to visit the elders of the family. Li Xuan asked Zhou Wen.
"I don't know. Let's wait and see. Didn't Qiu Yan say that she would arrange for us to contact Qin Ling? We'll figure out a solution then." Zhou Wen said.
"I got a kind of poisonous insect from the South District. If it can attach itself to a person, it can influence the person's will. Do you want to try it?" Li Xuan said with narrowed eyes.
"Let's not do that. After all, we are guests. It wouldn't be good if we were discovered by the Feng family." Zhou Wen shook his head.
"I'm going to find Hui Haifeng. Do you want to go with me?" Zhou Wen asked Li Xuan.
"I'm not familiar with him, so there's no point in going. You go by yourself. I'll go take a walk around the neighborhood." Li Xuan said.
After the two separated, Zhou Wen took Yaer to the Hui family. The Hui family was a wealthy family in Guihai, so there was basically no need to ask around and they found their home quickly.
Before arriving, Zhou Wen called Hui Haifeng, and Hui Haifeng quickly came to the door to pick him up.
"I didn't expect you to come so soon." Hui Haifeng smiled and gave Zhou Wen a hug.
Zhou Wen was a little unaccustomed to such enthusiasm: "The journey was relatively smooth, but the situation in Guihai looks really bad early on."
Hui Haifeng nodded. "It's really bad. This month hasn't even ended yet, and we've already had two small-scale waves of marine dimensional creatures land. While there have been few casualties, if this happens every month, people will become very tired and problems will easily arise. Furthermore, the marine dimensional creatures that have come ashore now are only epic-level at best, but who knows if mythical-level creatures will arrive in the future. In short, Guihai City is in a very troubled situation."
"Have you ever thought about moving inland?" Zhou Wen asked.
"Migration is not that easy. Not to mention that we have a family and business in Guihai. Even if we can abandon these family businesses and move to other cities, where can we find a city willing to share resources with our family to eat, drink, and practice?" Hui Haifeng pulled Zhou Wen into the courtyard. "Let's not talk about this anymore. I want to show you something good."
The Hui family's house is very big. In fact, it can no longer be considered a normal home, but more like a base.
Arriving at a warehouse-like place, Hui Haifeng opened the door, pointed inside and said, "Take a look at this thing."
Zhou Wen saw huge machines, various gear machines and electronic instruments inside the warehouse. On the left side of the warehouse, there were many devices like treadmills, and many companion pets were running on them.
"Can companion pets be trained like this?" Zhou Wen said in surprise, looking at the companion pets.
"What kind of training? This is a companion pet generator. It uses the power of the companion pet to drive the generator, and then stores the generated electricity. Anyway, when the companion pets don't need to fight, they don't have anything to do. This way, we can utilize their power and give them some exercise." Hui Haifeng said.
Zhou Wen had heard before that companion pets were generating electricity in many places, but this was the first time he had actually seen it.
"Is this considered an environmentally friendly new energy source?" Zhou Wen said with a smile.
"I don't know if it's environmentally friendly, but companion pets can automatically recover their strength and don't need to replenish energy. It's really convenient." Hui Haifeng said as he continued to walk into the warehouse.
At the innermost part of the warehouse, there is a room separated by glass. You can see many high-precision instruments inside and many staff members are busy working.
After Hui Haifeng and Zhou Wen changed into their special work clothes, they entered the glass room. Hui Haifeng pointed to something in a culture tank and said, "Look at this! This is our main research direction right now."
Zhou Wen looked at the culture tank and saw a white mass inside. It looked like a piece of white fat, and a bit like fungi.
"What is this?" Zhou Wen asked in confusion.
